Ra/Abyss Neptune/Light Hades/Holy Ceres/Echidna/Ra
The idea is to charge during the first stage, and both Ras' and Neptune's active skills can each sweep a stage on their own.
Took me 2 total runs. The first run one of the Kings dropped instead of the Heavy Dragon, so I just exited instead of wasting more stones. It finally dropped on the second run. I spent around 20 stones total I think, so an average of 10 stones per run. The problem is my team was too strong to charge skills on the first stage. Doing a minimum 5 matches with 3 orbs in each match swept the whole stage. So, I had no choice but to keep trying to sweep each stage. A single missed Ra activation was an automatic stone loss.
Yes!!! Poring Tower!!!! So, we can skill-up Cu Chu, Siegfried, Valkyrie, Lilith, Kagutsuchi, and the Light/Dark Golems.
I was able to get my Light Whiskey to skill Lvl.4, so just 1 more skill-up to go.

I hope they just didn't announce it yet and will still have the god fest. Like you said, it would make Lucifer a high drop rate.
this too
Wait, so this new rare egg machine update means that I can only get Lucifer if I level up to 30 first and spend eggs on the machine then?
It just means if you do pull one of the listed monsters it'll come out as lvl 30.
What Problem? The "good" lucifer" is an Angel... I guess I have to buy a 50$ Itunes card...
Edit: Does anyone have a good deal for US Itunes cards? I'm from Germany and those ebay and code seller sites are too expensive... :/

Used my 15 crystals on my main account pulled crap. Rerollling in hopes of Lucifer or Loki. 7 down so far. This time I'm keeping track.
Just follow this guide and you're set.
Guess I messed up on lucifer being an angel, thought he was a demon. Guess I'll give it a couple rolls on saturday then.
Yeah. If you really have that Lucifer, go all out on boxes. Makes everything easier, and Lucifer is so good that you can probably get really far without ever pulling REM again. Follow the guide just posted.
I don't think there could be a better Godfest for me, if it goes down this Saturday that is. I don't have any of the new Greek Gods. Neither do I have any of the Angels.
I still need a Hades aswell, which is where the Dark Event kicks in. Aswell as the obvious increased Lucifer odds.
That being said it is still gambling, I totally expect not to get anything I want.

Not Parv, thats ECO. (Whatever that is) Valk works though.
Rats! Was really hoping for Parvati. I guess I'll work on Highlander and Beserk some then. I have no Valkyrie yet. ;;

1 for 4 on Ancient Wood skill ups
0 for 5 on Marine Goblins.
I've ran Lightless about 4 times and think I've gotten 6 TOTAL drops, brutal rate. Need to get dat vamp. When it trolls it pours.

I remember last time this dungeon was up it was a pretty horrible drop rate. I tried a bunch the last time it was around and got nothing. The REM has had no qualms about giving me a Vampire about 6 times though so far. lol The 2x skillup events never seem to give me the feeling that it's effecting anything. It just seems like it's so small the "increase" makes little to no difference
Great idea, best move you can make early is bumping your box up to 100. You want to make sure you have enough room for Pengrdras, Metal dragons and plants plus your favorite monsters.
Anyone have the detailed information on the Poring dungeon? I would love to skill up my Valk.
Edit: Ahhh, I see what they are. Im dumping a lot of stones into that this weekend. If I can skill up my Chu Chu, Valk and Sigfried my Horus team willl get extremy well fed.

It looks like a mono color team would make short work of the Master level. Of course the fact it's 50 stamina really puts a damper on the whole farming the dungeon like crazy thing.

There are two different Lucifers, one with D/D element (Devil) and one with D/L element (God). The D/L one is the one you want.
The Poring dungeon is pretty straightforward, just gotta make sure you can survive hits from monsters. It also drops evolved bubbles so you can directly attempt to skill up Vamp, Gigas, and Siren as well.
http://pad.wikia.com/wiki/Tower_of_Poring
Monsters with skillup potential:
Valkyrie
Highlander
Berserk
Vampire
Gigas
Lilith
Big Woodsie (lol)
Siren/Shardra
Fairlio
Dark/Light golems
Kagatsuchi (rare)
I thought Archangeling and Deviling (Isis, Bastet) also appeared here but I guess not.
Difficulties:
Adept: don't bother, shit appear rate for porings
Expert: good because it drops evolved slimes
Master: better encounter rate of Angeling for Kagatsuchi but you encounter demons instead of slimes.
I'd spend my stamina running Expert, personally.
I really wish GungHo gave us 1-2 weeks to farm Poring Tower like Japan normally does.
Poring Tower looks incredibly useful. A full week or two would be really nice to try to Max skill all of those Actives.

An Angel/Greek godfest will be nice. Anyone know if its new Greek or old Greek? I would really love a Persephone, but Hades would be nice too. But most of all Seraphim Lucifer. I'm ready to have my dreams crushed though.
Hahaha everyone wants Seraphim Lucifer. This godfest man. I really told myself I wouldn't roll for a while but Angels + Greek with a Dark event going on is very hard to pass up. If it ended up being the old greek + Angels I'd have to roll since there's a dark event going on Hades would have an increased chance to get and of course Lucifer would be awesome too.

With my luck on the godfest tomorrow, I'll pull
Hades.
my third
Why would you do a rare pull 1 day before a god fest?

9 rolls down. No luck. Not even a single gold egg. Ton of knights.

STAHP!
Godfest is tomorrow!
What?!
*Rare Egg Machine Update*
[Duration]: 5/17, 12:00 AM (PDT) - 5/23, 11:59 PM (PDT)
Says it's today.
And I'm just rerollling over and over anyway not using crystals.
Yes, Archangel Lucifer is the one I have. The one with hilariously broken skill.
By the way, is it possible to give one's account to others? Because during the rerolls whenever I was pulling a 5 star pokemon I made backed up the whole app using Helium. Now I have close to two dozen different account folders with aforementioned pokemon sitting in my Android device that I don't have any intention of using. Instead of just deleting these folders I would rather give it to any new player who doesn't want to spend time rerolling like a madman like myself.

What did you use as a backup?
Maybe the carbon back up file emailed or something. Aside from that I don't think so.
I'm really confused. So what time precisely does the godfest begin?
Just read saturday starting 8 pm. Fucking great wasted 15 crystalson my mian account and about 9 rerolls on alts for nothing.
=/
ANOTHER DAMN KNIGHT!!! Ah well at least i don't gotta reroll anymore today with this info.
This is not the godfest, this is the shadow waltz!
The additional godfest with greatly increased angel/greek god drop rate on top of the shadwo waltz is tomorrow!

Do we know that the godfest is tomorrow due to timetravellers, or just because it has been on day 2 for the last three godfests...
The fact that you had 2 Hades to start with means you have much better luck than me.
Time travelers, there is a screenshot on puzzleanddragonsforum confirming that it starts at 8 pm PDT.

Oh neat just realized 2heroes is the day before Poring Tower. Maybe I'll actually get a Highlander since my team is less scrub now.
Is it just me or are people overstating Lucifer's ability? No doubt his ability is good to use on the final boss of a dungeon but I quickly looked through the guide that was posted earlier and it requires you to use it on the second to last level on some dungeons. You're left with 1hp and need 35 turns to charge up your skill again. I imagine it would be difficult to keep up with the healing despite the 4x RCV.
atlantaguy
Member
Yeah I agree. The real draw for me is the 2x RCV/HP. The active skill is cool but certainly not broken.
