Bleh, rolled a dupe dragon rider with the 5 stones I saved up. Fed it off and didn't get a skill-up. Oh well. I'll try my luck again whenever we get updated to ver5.0.
Anyway, I need some perspective with my options as far as team comps go. It'll help me curb (or fire up) my urge to do more gacha pulls.
What would you guys focus on with this set of monsters? Would appreciate any input/thoughts. 'Was really wishing for a Parv or a Lak with my Gacha pull.

lol. When it comes to PAD i feel like people are more interested in other people's successes than what they have available to them. You have Shiva - one of the best red leaders in the game, one of the most sought out creatures to deal with highly armored targets, and you have 2 echidnas. You sir, have available to you an incredible fire team. I highly suggest farming yourself a gigas, and a mystic flame knight as you see fit.
I'm curious, but why were you looking for a lakshmi or parvati when you already had shiva?
edit: just noticed the vampire and CDK combo available to you as well... hello dark team.
edit again: just realized you have 2 different "riders" Your team (currently) should probably be shiva, your two riders (the red/green and the blue/red) and 2 echidnas. Find youself freyr and shiva friends. Faceroll content and enjoy. Still get yourself a mystic knight or gigas if you can since they're farmable
Of note - if a monster has a sub color or main color that receives a bonus from your leader: ie; since both of your riders have fire, either as main element or sub element, then their other colors also receive the bonus. ie; your blue rider will receive 1.5x damage since it has a sub color of red. Your red monster will get 1.5x on green roll, since it has red.

I had a similar issue last week. 14 hours later the magic stones appeared.
I had this problem earlier today. Tried to buy stones, it errored out. Then tried again and got another error. I had 2 pending payments on my credit card but it got refunded without me doing anything within 2 hours. Also got emails from google play saying I purchased, then another saying it was canceled. Guess gungho doesn't want my money.

Alrighty then.
And god damn, 115 MSKs for an ADK? Wow. That's just... insane.
When I get home I'll resume the goblin farming so I can make sure I at least feed them during the last few bits of the 2x event.. I'm working on something like you said - focus on one thing and one thing only. Right now, that is my Great Valkyrie team - Great Valk + 2 max skill Sirens (getting there, have one done!) + 2 Echidna the Red Empress (that I pulled this morning, and both level 30!)
Should be verrry good once I finish doing what I need with them, and if I need to, I can sub something for an evolved Lilith, or an Alraune (if she's any good in these types of teams).
Yeah I really wonder what's the rate on that. Seems to be pretty low.
Calming down a bit after getting 0 good monster after 15 roll.
Gonna play this more casually (Not much left for me to do anyways until 5.0). Gonna do jewel dragons and get pengdra. Thursday gonna binge dragon plant. I have 75 max stamina so its not like I need to frequently check my stamina.
Speaking of which should I keep a low level naga for sturdy purposes. or should I turn it into an Echilada.
I have this weird idea for a super team with Enchiladas.
If you have 2 max skill nagas. You can almost become invincible.
My thinking is
New Ultimate Evo Tyrano-> Enchilada -> Enchilada -> Max skill Flame Guardian Guy -> Siren -> (Some defensive helper like Orochi or Odin)
You got your HP with the Flame Guardian and its active skill which is pretty easy to level, massive RCV with Echilada x 2 and Siren and Orochi or Odin to help keep you alive.
A fight would take forever but its like an unloseable situation. You can substitute the Siren with a Hera if you want more offense. Siren isn't that useful when you get 4+ turns to heal yourself up.

Even with this 2x Skill Event, it's brutal. Think my Siren is at 2, and I don't know how much more I'll do tonight. Got my 4th Ripper today so I think I'm just going to start facerolling w/ an ADK team.
Just so I know, the basic 2xADK team goes :
ADK
Ripper
Ripper
Ripper
Ripper
ADK
?
Seems like that's not a lot of RCV. Before I had 3 Rippers and a Siren for healing. Or is this basically all offense and hope you don't get hit?

Well, Slottm, I had a feeling of where I should head. It was either shiva or valk. You're right about my dark options as well. Just something about the hindu grass and water teams that I felt were safer, and I wanted to have my sirens on there.
But thanks. You're right, though. People get caught up in what everyone else is doing, and don't recognize what's in front of their face.
MMBosstones86: I'll send you a request right away. I will check the spreadsheet. Anyone else with Shiva Destroyers?
Ideally you want to replace the rippers with more ADKs and CDKs. More RCV and gem changers, the ripper skill becomes worse and worse later on.
It'll never be a lot of RCV, but that's because you'll be killing everything.
There are different types of ADK team subs, don't need to use rippers (e.g., a CDK, another ADK, etc). I personally use a echidna on my team.

Hmm, just purchased some eggs but they are not showing up. I get a lot of freezes as the game comes back from the store but usually after restarting the eggs show up right away. Not this time though, and I was going to pull at least a couple more rares.

Best thing about this is it was essentially me before you guys showed me the power of a Lakshmi or Parvati team.
I still have no clue what to use my Angelion for, though. I guess resists? or for a Dark -> Heal -> Something else combo?
And I'm guessing Susano (evolved) is great in a Parvati team?

Thank you, sir. Sent you request. Just waiting on Stamina to regen. I have all my pets listed at the top of the page; let me know if you need anything as well
Now that my godfest pulls are over, time to focus on an end game team. Looking for input on the best end game team I can create. I want to be ready for Hera and Zeus the next time they come around. Here's my current box:
I can run a dual ADK team, with an ADK leader friend. What would be the best monsters to use in the final 3 spots?
I'm also very close to the Valk team, my second siren is ready to evolve if I can just get those last 2 glow worms. Was thinking Valk, 2 sire, 2 ench but it seems Valk friends are more of a rarity.

So... I've been taking a couple days off the game... just not doing much... (but still logging in daily for the bonus) and then... Godfest? Cool, let's do a single pull (I only have 9 stones).
What do I get?
Neptune.
Fuck yeaaaaaah.

Seriously though, congrats. I need to really clear out my friend list to add only Gaffers. As a collective I'm sure we could probably just lean off of each other forever.

Hahaha, some of the posts on FBPG today have been completely unreal.Take it in jest, just made this due to todays godfest posts
It's kind of weird how so many people lust for a Neptune. I have one and while he is pretty cool he's not "spend $200 on rolls to acquire". Maybe it's a grass is greener situation?
I literally wasn't even desperately rolling for one. I had 9 stones, so I was like "eh, I'll roll once or twice if I get another stone, haven't been playing much anyway" and... here he is. I guess the game wants me to get back into it -cringe-

I was referring more to the guys on FB who post shit like "I got Parvati (my third one!!!!), Odin, Hades, 6* Shiva but all I wanted was a Neptune!!! Why are my rolls such garbage???"
It's always Neptune they're looking for, too. I closed my browser window after that.

I'm cleaning mine out, too. I see you're looking for valk friends as well. I've got one in my roster. Send me an invite if you have room!

I'm still undecided if I'm going to bother pulling rares today or not. I'm blitzing the Jewel and Plant Dragon dungeons like crazy today. I used up all of my 70 Ruby Dragons, evolving Pengdras before my first scheduled Ruby Dragon dungeon. Then, I got another 102 Ruby Dragons when that dungeon came around. I'm gonna try and use all those up as well as my stockpiled 120+ Sapphire Dragons before the Sapphire dungeon comes up in 2.5hrs. Then, I'll finally finish up with Emeralds. When all the Dragons and Pengdras are exhausted, I'll stock my box with Dragon Plants. Today is hectic! 2x Plant day, Jewel Dragons, and Godfes! It's only 1:30 in the afternoon here, and I'm already tired.
Regarding the gambling aspect, yeah, it really is gambling. You can end up spending a little or lot and leave a loser or winner. But I tell you, I'm having more fun playing PAD and making use of the rares I got than I ever did pulling slot handles or throwing dice. You can't continue playing and having fun once you leave the casino. But you can continue enjoying PAD with your new rare monsters long after you call it quits on the rare machine.
No shit? I wondered about that, but never bothered to test it out or ask. Well, that makes riders so much better than I thought they were. Too bad I fused my dupes. Doh!
Yeah, if you ever took a peak at ice hera, it makes her infinitely more useful. What're you in the process of leveling up GC?
As for me I'm working on preparing a team for 2 Heroes, with my well...shitty luck pulls =)
Trying for ADK + ADK + Wind mech + echidna + susano + parvati friend. Should provide ~ 20000-22000 hp, 3000 rcv, and 3.75 dmg on the 3 dragons, 1.5x on parv/susano and 3 defensive cooldowns (water > heart) 5 turn 50% reduction, 3 turn delay. Hoping it works out =)

Is that because you don't have a Parvati of your own, because you think this is better than a 2x parvati setup, or both? I'm building a similar team myself, but was thinking about going parvati, ADK, ADK, Wind Mech, Echidna, Parvati (both ADKs max skill)

Oh, wow! You're right. Didn't even think about Blue Hera. I remembering reading her leader skill and saying, "Why does she only boost her secondary color? That's dumb."
As for what I'm leveling-up. Everything! lol. But my current focuses are Shiva, Echidna for Fire, 2 Parvatis and Green Spearman for Wood, and Fenrir and Blue Odin for Water(Already got Siegfried maxed and waiting for 5.0). I've got a bunch of other monsters to eventually level, but those are my priorities at the moment.
Blue hera is what made me investigate it...at first I was like...she looks Meh...then I had my friend test out all possible situations (red leader with a green/red monster, matching 3 green, matching 3 red... every combination provided boost for attack. Not sure on HP/RCV but I'd assume it follows suit
I pulled 10 times today. Amaterasu, Parvati, 5* level 30 Siren, 5* level 30 Echidna, and Green Odin. Yes, I wanted a Neptune, but I can't complain.
I'm done rolling until the update comes out.
I just wish I would have tried to get a second Mystic Mask yesterday so I could evolve Parvati. Now I have to wait until next Wednesday.

I just wish I would have tried to get a second Mystic Mask yesterday so I could evolve Parvati. Now I have to wait until next Wednesday.
So I made my 2nd batch of pulls today. I'm stopping for now, though.
I mostly got duplicates of this morning (heh) - another Shiva, 2(!!) Parvati, a Dino Rider, a Siren the Enchanter (sigh, and I'm skilling up a little mermaid, so I might just sac her into that once she reaches fully evolved...), another Echidna the Red Empress (I'm at 3, is there such a thing as too many of those?), a Freyr, a Naga (lol), and a Basilisk. Everything else was just Knights that I fused for their +1s.
Not too bad! I'm just sad I didn't get a (heh) Neptune or an Orochi. At this point I'm giving up on the Orochi. I'm getting tons of duplicates today but nothing blue whatsoever, so...
So now, here's my total allotment of "good" stuff:
Freyr
2x Shiva
Red Ripper
3x Echidna the Red Empress (2x should be good in a Great Valk team)
Kagutsuhi
Minerva
Lakshmi (both evolved and non)
2 Siren the Enchanter (one is max skilled) (with the 2 Echidnas, this should make me unkillable)
3 Parvati
ADK
Green Ripper
Susano
White Mechdragon
Thor(?)
Evolved Genie
Angelion
Great Valkyrie
White Ripper
Ammy
Venus (Is she useful evolved?)
2x Vritra (resolve teams here I come!)
CDK
Black ripper
Evolved Lilith
Vamp Lord
Everything else is mostly filler and such. Right now, I feel if I level up my Great Valk + 2 Echidnas + my Sirens, I should have a very workable unkillable team for a lot of stuff. So I'll focus on that, then focus on finishing up a Parvati team, with 2x Parvati, an ADK and a Susano.
With my red stuff, I wonder what my options are. One Shiva is enough imo, I don't think I'd need two, and I don't have enough stuff for a Lakshmi team yet. I really am lacking in blue besides my Sirens and my Lakshmis.
Any comments now?
And the reason I want a Neptune is I want another strong blue monster + maybe something where I could fit him into an attrition team. I'm not 100% sure. I'd like an Orochi much better, because right now I fully rely on friends for resolve (I have an ice ogre, lol) and with the 2 Virtras it's still a very good team.

Believe me I'm not complaining. I'm happy with the ones i got today. Very happy. No, I wouldn't trade them for a Neptune. I'm just looking for another poisoner and I'd rather have a Neptune than a fourth Lilith. I'm just trying to make the Wed and Friday dungeons easier. Not that it isn't already with three Liliths. I think it's just the Pokemon fever at this point.
Can anyone explain to me the method of backing up accounts using i-funbox.
Can I restore an old account?
Is it tied to a phone?
Basically my goal is to use this god fest and roll an end game starter on my disabled iphone 4. Can I save good rolls like Laskhmi and try for better ones like Parvati, Ifrit, Odin and if I don't get better ones restore Lakshmi.
Also can I move accounts? Can I put the account in my current phone to the old defunct phone and move the new account onto the my current phone.

So Sea Cave Mercury is the weirdest thing ever.
I go a good 7-8 runs with no Marine Goblin drops.
I do one run now, I get 3. (Not complaining!)
**edit** WHAT. THE. HELL. I just decide hey, I'll fuse 5 of my goblins now.
I get three skillups. The three I was missing on my Mermaid. Now I can peacefully evolve her to a Siren the Enchanter (which really isn't that hard to do!) and have 2 max skill Sirens. Wow,
