Woah, haters. I would LOVE a 7-11 king dragon!

Is this 7-11 thing Japan only?

Gotta take the bad with the good. Here are some collab mobs that have appeared in JP in the past:
well okay that last one is kinda cool in its own bizarre way.

I would really like to get a mermaid, but haven't had any luck via running normal dungeons. So I was considering giving expert of the Blizzard Dragon a shot. I hate wasting stam if its not possible to complete the dungeon, though. So, wondering if you guys could suggest a build to run it. Here's my current box:
At least the 7/11 ones are fitting. That art style is just way off..
Im attempting to get my first dub by running Friday dungeon. With drop rate x2 is it better to do the regular shrine run or expert? I think expert has a higher chance of dropping? I ask because I could only do expert two times with my stam.
Or maybe they only drop from the expert?
Or maybe they only drop from the expert?
Dubs are only available in Expert. If you're unsure of being able to tackle it, find a Shiva friend leader and farm in the early levels to charge up his skill.
Yeah, this 2x event hasn't felt much like a 2x, or at least not like the ones we've had before.

Gonna be honest you are going to have a rough time with it. On Expert the boss hits for 31907 damage every 8 turns. I don't see anything in your box that will allow you to survive that or burst his 224375 HP down in time.
Not sure how much hp you'll have but I'd probably run: Toytops + 50% water resist leaders with Hades and your best monsters. With those 2 resist leaders, the dragon will deal about 11k damage so your main priority is to get atleast that much hp and enough recovery to heal in 8 turns. From there, you can just grind it out. I would spend the day levelling up the team you're planning to run with and wait until the 2x drop rate on saturday or sunday.

I don't really care one way or another about what brands GungHo collabs with or how the monsters look. I just care about if they come with worthwhile monsters to keep or farm for skill-ups. Like how the Final Fantasy collab has good monsters like a Light delayer with lower duration and cooldown than Echidna, a Wood poisoner, Rainbow Crystal, and a Dark ADK(though Zaerog makes Bahamut obselete now).

Alright cool. I have access to an awoken odin (thanks adam@GAF!), and have some leveling stuff saved up for green heroes, so this is possibly doable. What about a heal-heavy, mainly green team with dragons for sweeping and Awoken Odin leader skill? If I did this, was thinking I'd run some sort of heal leadership character, possibly mandrake. The goal would be to take the 30k blow, reduced to 6k by odin, and immediately heal back up in the following 8 turns.

Probably your best bet. Might also want to have some sort of contingency plan (probably the earth golem) if you end up with too large a mob where you can't heal back up before another enemy attacks.
That works too but you gotta make sure you can survive or one shot encounters where there are multiple monsters with the same timer.
Running Zeus. Usually with 2x Hera.
Gravity is a useful skill in general for bosses with tons of HP. Plays well with Dark teams. Hera is a poor man's farmable Hades, basically.
Good job! 3 stones is a lot better than my 9 stone first run. Really expensive considering I'm a non-IAP player. I had an underleveled CDD+Odin team. I only use Hera for bosses with high HP. Your next Hera run will go a lot faster

anyone having luck with the dub-mythlits today? I swear, other than the pretty texts....I couldn't tell you this was an event.

I haven't touched them today. I did, however, use a stone to get some metal dragon runs in. Walked away with 5 kings in like, 7 runs. Fed 3 to my first Hera. I plan to bum rush kings all day. I need to evolve my Heras! I need 2 more keepers to get the second evolved though.
I feel better about my 2~$50 iTunes card I got for $40 a piece. I almost feel dirty doing it, but at 150+ days played, it feels about right for how much interest it has kept on my end.

I just noticed this about the 7-11 dragons: why are they only 1-star?

It's all dummy data; currenetly all that's in the game is their art but not any of their stats or skills or anything like that. See this thing for a more expanded example (who will probably appear in the US version in about 1-2 months):

You could also bring a Lucifer along too and blast him to the high heavens w/ Morning star in one blow (300,000DMG). He's the only "good" leader I got so I got him up pretty much all the time, my ID is 377 750 202 if you want to add me and use it.
Those fuckers are evading me... grr!

I actually got a ton of Dub-myths from the Tower of Jewel, so I didn't need anymore. I just decided to stock up on a few Light and Dark Dubs for future evos since it was 2x rate. I got 3 more Dub-myths before finally scoring a Dark one. I'd gladly trade with you if I could. I'm sitting on 11 Dub-myths and only 1 Dark one.

Kings have been very good to me. On my way to getting my second Hera up! Woo!

i'm legit 0 for 7. Tons of Light and Dark...which I don't need as I've Ultimate'd everything that I have so far. Need a few more dub-myth so I can evo the toy dragons. Currently the only one I have is going to choo choo (need 6 more levels!!)
I agree but at the same time will be heavily annoyed if I get a key party member that has lame artwork and doesn't fit in with the game. FF, I'm a fan... would love anything that comes from that... Clash of Clans I don't want permanently in my box (just a pet peeve for me).
The 7-11 stuff wouldn't bother me either since it looks like it's just Kings for skill-ups, not a big part of the game. Drink a slurpee, get a level on Horus... win win.
Back to gameplay part of the thread:
Decided to Evolve Grand Tyrannos after we started discussing the starter dragons a couple pages back. I've got a nice red team that I wasn't even thinking about now:
Tyrannos leader
Horus
Echidna
Red Giant Gigas
Phoenix Knight
Red leader (Ares seems to probably be the best bet)... 25k HP and 4x attack.
Anyone obvious I'm missing from this lineup? What does everyone else run for mono red?

Looks good. You can mix and match subs, but nothing wrong with your roster as is.

Agreed. I pumped Verche to 1 away from max skill. This dungeon feels like misery on drop rates compared to white knight. I've opted not to push for skilling my dark knight this time.
I just want one to actually have a CDK, lol.
I kinda wish I went for Verche, need some light monsters.
I'm 0 for 5. I finally got a blue dub though so I could evolve Siegfried and feed him the 22 porings I had. 1 skill up.
And I thought 2/25 for Cu Chu was bad...

Looks like we're getting the Skydragons again next week, because ?????
Guess they needed more filler before unleashing the Sengoku dragons on us. But why them instead of the Mechdragons which we have not gotten in a longer amount of time?

Well that sucks. I have all the sky dragons and only one mechdragon. I guess this will relieve some of the pressure to run the weekly dungeon.
Official FB seems to hint that mech dragons are coming soon. Probably after legendary. Will the orb enhancer's appearance rate be as miserable as I'm fearing?
Sure. 337,457,215.

Any easier teams for Underworld Legend that don't require Hades, Zeus, or Luci?
You could probably do it with a mono red 4/1/4 or 4/2/2. Agdrall, gigas, jotunn and echidna.
Another alternative could be resist + anubis lead if your orb matching skills are good. Need to be able to whip out 10x combos consistently.
I think someone here did it with a mono blue. You can find more info a couple of pages back.
Request sent.
The safest team I've found is Ares+Noel, hard to find helpers though. I've also done it with red and green 2/4/2 teams but its risky, a maxed Siren can help a little. Note that angels don't work since they are light and will get locked by the boss.
I use a Holy Ceres on the team I ran with and I actually prefer it getting binded. A turn where the boss doesn't use Curse Ball and binds my weakest attacker, I'm fine with that. You still recover the same amount regardless.

Finally got up to the conditionals on my JP account, except all my good mons are either light or dark element. Guess I'll work on normal dungeons instead...
