So these shits do happen
Lucky punk!
Did you get your first magic stone I'm the mail for this event?
Nevermind, closed the app and it seems to have come.

best way to get rubylits?
cheapest way is dungeon of fire especially on 1/2 stamina other then that Friday dungeon but the stamina cost for a chance to get it is not worth imo.

2 for 26 on skillups.
The dream is dead guys.

Aw, wish I knew earlier about changing the time to get around the bug. I was on the verge of leveling up and wanted to get some ruby dragons. Hopefully the exp/skill up boosts are working at least.

Ouch, that's like a 4% chance of happening. How many did you need?

I feel better about quitting when I see things like this and realize there's NO WAY I'll ever be this good:

it was a bunch of random shit. I went 1 for 1 on Haku, 0 for 4 on ancient dragons, 0 for 1 on Hera-Is, 0 for 1 on L.Tron, and 1 for the rest on a devil.
Yeah, dungeons like this is just simply ridiculous. Awakened Zeus didn't even drop LMAO.

Dark chasers have been really good to me so far, just need 1 more skillup and got 12 chasers left. Still sucks getting the evo mats though.

skill ups
1 for 3 on Hanzo (max skilled with this 1)
0 for whatever on Hanahime (low cost teams)
1 for 2 Hera-is
0 for 1 on Zues
Working on mats for my ten purple chasers - Two dark keepers, need demon masks and amelits... Haku needs at least 1 or 2 skill ups

thinking on compensation: This is a pretty breaking bug and effectively delays the event.
Last time major compensation occurred was the archangels/archdemons "oops we forgot to turn on the godfest" issue. Where they refunded everyone's stones and we kept whatever we had pulled before.
before that they had the "carnival did not push out godfest monsters at the raised level", and gifted any affected person a level 30 of whatever monster they pulled. which is why I ended up with a ridiculous amount of shivas.
So what is everyone's thoughts on the compensation for this time? I can definitely see it being a non-5 (think 4 or 8 instead of 5 or 10) number of stones, I think a Tama or super metals give away would be kind of disappointing.

Given that just a couple hours of outage netted us, what, 2 stones, I'm hoping that a multi-day event delay will get us at least 2x that.

On the other hand it's not like you can't play the game, unlike an outage, and it's not like there was a fuckup with things people spent stones on, like the REM fuckups. I'm guessing it's either going to be a small amount of apology stones or a decent number of PAL points.

18 PAL egg pulls and got fucking nothing. So mad.

actually had a pretty good PAL roll with 20 pulls.
- Unicorn (only beast I was missing)
- 2 Trifruits
- TAM
- Angelit
- Rest Shit

That's why I am guessing about some non-multiple of 5 as apology stones. They do have to realize they are losing money from the heavy IAP people not being able to stone for EXP, so they have to give something. The reason it would be a non-multiple of 5 is so that people who are that 1 stone short can just IAP for that sweet, Sweet REM pull during godfest.

Hey guys, does anyone have a decent level green odin that they could throw up for me?
My ID is 374,817,368 if you want to add me, or if you'd like I'll add you.
Also, I've got a fairly low level DQXQ which I will be leveling up quickly. If anyone else has one and would like to add me, I welcome it!

Hypothetically, what are the odds of going 0/16 on King Shynee skillups during an event? I'm, uh, asking for a friend.

2.8%, assuming the RNG is fair and balanced.

I added you and put up my GOdin. I'm Static@GAF
Let me know when you enter the dungeon.

Awesome, thanks. I already ran it once, waiting for stamina to refill in ~ 30 mins then going to run it again. Pretty nice looking Odin

20% is the commonly assumed value; forgot if it ever had basis in hard data.
Ok, Just wondering - I personally don't believe the number - nor do I think the number is 'static' - there are certainly times where I've seen skill up rates much higher and recent much lower.
the problem with statistics is that you can hide a lot of information. I've seen the 1/10 (regular skill up number) on a few boards and they are all based on guesses.
Since spending money in the game I've been a lot more critical of the numbers.
There certainly is an algorithm that is used to generate the levels and the skyfall patterns. it is *not* random.
given that information it irks me when the company says the rate is "2x" - which could be true, but not knowing what the 1x rate it is makes the information useless.

got my 1 last skill-up for Hanzo from 6 feeds. Thank you PAD gods.

No problem. My Odin has everything but plus eggs and has been very useful in certain dungeons. I've even cheesed my way through some descends with him since he is bind proof.
I usually run Ares, Valk, Red Sonia, Horus, Bastet, and Dark Metatron but let me know when you need me to put GOdin up.

Got the last skill-up on F/D Minerva with 3 feeders. Still couldn't get the last skill-up for Tengu with the 4 mobs I farmed last time. Also max-skilled my second Hatsume with lone Neneko I got from 4 runs of Tengu.
I think I mentioned this before, that's why I haven't made one of my Liliths D/L.
I couldn't get into Emerald Dragons earlier even when I changed the time on my phone.
Now o need to make a healer one again. Dammit.
I have 4 Liliths but only 2 are max skilled. When I skill up the 3rd one I'll make her D/L.

Rates of everything are very streaky. Its why you see 2-3 gold eggs in a row, multiple skillup strings, +egg drops going up, etc. Its not hard proven, but very anecdotally proven. I can attest to it from dropping big stones on preVious godfests, skilling up multiple mobs, and farming for +eggs for weeks on end.
