It didn't fail or anything. It has just taken waaaay longer to get stuff done than they estimated. Maybe I'm just being hard on them, but I did drop a good amount of money on the game.what went wrong with hex?
i wanted to dip in, but i guess luckily i didn't?
Back on topic -- is Fagan available? I just saw him and damn...I WANT

it's been said so many times....avoid doing the daily dungeons outside of a 2x event if at all possible. There are a few exceptions (colored keepers, thursday), but thats about it.
The rate is just too bad normally.
Meant to comment on this before but completely forgot. I stumbled on the kick starter thread a few days ago, game looks great ashodin, best of luck with it. Love the artwork and design. You've got my support.
I need mats for the anniversary event, normally I would be more patient. But yeah... no choice but to wait now.
Almost beat Venus in endless with double non fully max level ADKZ with just level 50 ripper dragons. Only died because I could not heal enough. Even if I did manage to max mine and beat Venus I doubt I would take a chance on any descend with it as lead since I don't have the best subs for him yet.

You lucky dog, you...I'm like, 8 runs deep with 0 mystics.
Yes. And some godfests are better than others by virtue of what monsters have a higher chance of dropping. By the way, and others can chime in on this claim, I think Robin is a really good monster and you should make sure to do 2 - 3 pulls in Batman REM before it goes away for a while. If not S tier Robin is plausibly at least an A tier monster.

I think Robin is superb for some dungeons in a similar way to Anubis, but as a general purpose lead he's not someone I am really too keen on. He makes a good sub on the (new to US) 9x balance team for general farming.
There's other good stuff from the Batman REM machine, BUT nothing gamebreaking like one of the spike damage leads (Horus, Kirin, etc. ) or an Archangel Lucifer. So it all depends on what you need from the REM when deciding to roll.
If you don't need anything but just want to spend money on the game, then by all means gamble on godfest. Just understand that even in those ideal circumstances, the REM is not your friend, and as you progress more and more into the game, your REM rolls get more and more comparatively worse.

thing is, my only rolls have been i&i at the start and then i rolled for the sake of it a cu chulain. thats it the last godfest i got shit. si i think its a good investment now that im currently past tower of flare going into polar night in regular dungeons and in the technical ones im in twilight woods.

Then go for it! Though I think you can actually do a hell of a lot with an I&I and Cu Chu in the game if you can properly develop their respective teams.
edit: Reason why I bring this up is that I often see a lot of boxes from people posting for help that have a pile of good monsters with no levels or XP, wondering what to do with the huge number of options in front of them.

I actually haven't used SoD Lucifer or Horus for quite a while, now. I feel like lazy 9x teams are the way to go, these daysespecially Hera-Ur's team.

People really understimate how annoying it comparatively is to run something like a Kirin through a regular dungeon vs. running a straightforward 9x team through the same content. Even high skill 2/4/2 teams blaze through day to day work without too much problems.
My Isis is still almost always up for a reason-it's brainless, fast, and good enough for tier 5 equivalent content (95% of my play). I only drag out my Horus or Lucifer when it is needed.
edit: I want a Hera-Ur. Missed it on the back-to-backs during the first showing, haven't seen it since.

Build a ragtagged zombie team and get rk.
Pump the black dragon till cdd..
Then go
Vamp,cdd,rk, if you can snag a cdk, One Free slot and use friend slot as you see fit..
This should further your progression into normal...
Or you can try to build a team for i&i...

ty, will grind those level on the black dragon and vamp.
qq what does rk mean?
also how would that I&I team be? evolve plesios i guess and get some better water monsters.
Tobe: RK generally means Rainbow Keeper. A good blue team almost always has a Siren in it, so farming one should be a priority. But really, uh, how do you feel about rerolling your account? There's not a lot there to work with outside I&I. If no, a few tugs on the Batman REM for one of the Batmen would boost a dark team. Robin is mostly a novelty unless you are really skilled.
Couldn't agree more. We have six team slots available, and my first two are always going to be a 9x and mono-green (4/4/1 or 2/4/2). Dark Metatron is still a WIP but I couldn't imagine trying to proc her leader skill on anything but a descend.People really understimate how annoying it comparatively is to run something like a Kirin through a regular dungeon vs. running a straightforward 9x team through the same content.

Why? A hit or two should always put you into <80% range. And taking a Satan will keep you there.
US downloads now over 2 million as of 10/30. Thanks Batman! And new update info should be coming later today.
No Satan yet. No Dark Meta friends or high enough team cost to field the subs I want yet either.
Next update includes the ultimate evos for greeks, elementals, and vampire?

He could stick to no-rem, but progression will be slow as fuck..
Your best bet is to snag a siren (more heart for vamp or heal on demand) or Naga (for delay greatness)..
I&i is decent, cu is decent, but you have nothing to fit both atm...

I thought this, too. Seriously, gives us SOMETHING better than Breakers for a 1 year event. I'd even take Hera for gravity skillup runs.
Yeah, this event is completely underwhelming. If you compare it to the one year anniversary in japan this is a joke. I get that this is wildly more popular in Japan but, I mean this barely even rates when compared to some of the better events we've had over the past year.

Looks like Hades will be rendered useless now....
So are these Hera and Zeus busties going to be 8 stars or what?
Had a feeling this was coming. I've been working on Hera as a key part of the d/d batman squad. Really want to get a second batman to keep one evo'd, one at 10 cost.

Yeah, D/L Hades is fine. Horus is still the most popular spike descend lead in JP, and Hades came in 3rd just behind Kirin and Lucifer in the polling to determine who made it into the last Godfest in JP. Nothing really replaces a max skill D/L Hades in his slot.
New art is way better than the old art, even if it looks a lot like the Perspehone new art (which was also pretty good.
Woooh! She looks amazing @_@ !!

jeez. guess its a good thing it only took me 6-7ish rolls for D/L Bats
I try not to spend that much on this game. I rolled the Batman REM 4 times and got 2 D/D Batman, 1 Robin, and 1 D/W Batman. I would like a D/L Batman but will only roll 1 more time.
The artwork for the new Hera looks good but Hades actually has a good leader skill so he won't be obsolete.

Oh yeah, now that we're getting Tengu we have a new build for a 0-stone Zaerog team using him. Bring an autoheal leader and swap Tengu in once you clear away the trash on the boss.
