Decided to switch Riding Hood for Guan Yinping and it worked out!
I have 11 saved up + Day 250 is coming up soon so I should have some rolls ready!!
Given the mats for Ceres though, probably be a while til I get her to awakened form.... heh.
The more Ronia the better!
Only have 8 of the 30 gods in Jp PCGF, Seems like a perfect time to roll but I do have teams that need work instead of rolling.
Got Spinx yesterday and just need Medjedra for my Bastet. Got Liu Bei and Mei Mei to build around her. Just need to figure out the last 2 spots, Got Perseus, Astroth, GZL, Guan Yu, and other green silver egg rem only stuff.
I guess I can try and go all out hoping for Verdandi and other special gods.

Sometimes i forget how strong U&Y can be if played right. Is LKali effectively really better/stronger ? I have played both...and yes im more used to U&Y so combos are easier but it feels like U/Y can be played more aggressive and hits harder ?
Def. need to focus on one of both since playing them back to back screws up my ability to "see" the right board for their activation. I dont have all the subs, max lvl or max skilled but....
UY,UY,Sun Quan,Blodin,LKali,UY
vs.
LKali,LKali,LMeta,Yomi, Izanagi/Sun Quan,LKali
DKali is a key sub missing in both teams, as well as Fuma on LKali.
On paper LKali seems better but without Fuma and enhanced orbs the damage and board is kinda disappointing. U&Y active alone is better to prepare the board for a couple blue/green TPA. Hmm...i probably would have been more impressed if i didnt have a very good U&Y team.
So probably no LKali anytime soon for me....my double down on Awoken Bastet instead since she shares subs with my Parvati/Verdandi teams.
Thanks i will watch some of those later.
Since you just started right now is the best time to get a couple of key subs for the future during this fest - after this PCFG you will be fine for a long time if you have a bit of luck. I remember getting units like GZL and Yomi on my first PCFG and those carried me for a long ass time xD
It hurts :-/

If you move orbs without matching, the bind counters will reduce by 1. I don't think Ronia is the best team for this dungeon. I prefer Yamato or Ame no Uzume because they handle binds better.
Edit. Yamato makes hearts and each Yamato removes 3 turns of bind when you make a row of hearts. Ame's active removes 4 turns of bind instantly.
Yeah thats what I'm doing, but tamadra keeps binding the same monster all the time. I have only Dmeta and Ronia teams. If only I had Lu bu or Durga I could use Dmeta here.

Skill up fodders drop.
Those are mini I wish they had better awakenings, right now they're pretty much useless for me.
I had a dream I got my Awoken Ra and I was wrecking shit. Been plying way too much pad, I haven't had a pad dream since last summer lol.
Anyways JP Godfest looks good, more excited about Extreme Tama dungeon returning though since I hate grinding to rank up and it's an easy 7 or so ranks for my low rank JP account which is only at 70 something.
Been playing more of my JP too. Juggler is broken, peaking at 1.6 million with a dub mythlit is just hilarious. Also I still haven't found a good use of Chibi Red Odin...

Finally got my third water jewel. Now just need to evolve noah and siegfried. Need blue supers to come back. Any thoughts?
Only thing that you are missing I am sure you're already aware of and that is Andromeda.
I think that one of the weaknesses of a Lak team is the lack of leader bind prevention. Something such as an Isis that has a low cooldown and is bind immune may increase survivability along with emergency heal and huge RCV for a physical monster.
Going to run a similar team when I am able to acquire a Noah, forgot to run it last time it was around.
And I just had a dream I fused away Echidna.
...What a random dream.
I'll roll on that godfest, only have 5 / 30 and dupes of Ronia/Shiva/Haku would be fine with me.
Please no more Rodin/LMeta, though.
And if I roll a Bonia or a Skuld, I'm going to cry at all the blue fruits I've fed for box space in my red trifruit hunt.
Nice team but Blonia has 0 RCV and her skill doesn't generate hearts. You know there are some good farmable orb changers: Siren, Kamui and Amberjack.
I'm also thinking about Lakshmi team and trying to level/evolve this one:

Now to try clearing it with Byakko...but bursting so many floors in a row without getting orb trolled is going to be tricky.

So is Awoken Meimei making waves at all in Japan? 51% damage reduction for some very common colors. A very respectable multiplier. Two two prong. She seems like she'd be able to output some serious damage along the likes of Awoken Parvati and Lakshmi. I suppose the main issue is no RCV buff?
Anyone need an ancient green mask?
Also a sighting of my most hated monsterfuck GGY
With all these OP wood cards I feel like there's some hope for him.
I have 12 ancient green masks and 37 Dragon Fruits.
Congrats LGY - your DMeta team looks so good...
PS. So this coin dungeon is coming back soon

Thinking of spending my orbs on skilling up Sun Quan instead of PCGF pulls...good idea ? I would need to farm some money for the first time this weekend...

I made this same observation the other day. She seems like a really good leader in the Dark/Light/Green heavy dungeons. Maybe not as much damage as the Indian awokens, but the damage reduction acts as a 2x HP and RCV against most enemies. She also has great synergy with GZL which is a huge plus. I'm really excited to try her out.
Also, I'm a fan of any green team that doesn't benefit from Liu Bei. /salt
Not ideal, but solid. Better with skill ups on the Berry Dragon since that you will be using it often with Hatsume. There is potential for Blue Sonia to troll your board with less than five dark orbs, but it's rare. And if she gives too many, you might need to use both Lakshmi's to make six hearts and then Hatsume to fill the board with blue.
Sun Quan is usually going to be overkill unless you need his delay. No full board change like Seiryuu, Blue Sonia, Skuld or Urd? You might be a little low on HP with all healer subs.
Awoken Meimei is a great sub for some teams, and has an interesting system team with one of the newer Godfest exclusives. But what can she do as a lead that other green teams don't do better already? Verdandi tanks better, Parvati and Bastet hit harder. She's better than she used to be, but a lot of hard content features Hera-Ur, which is her worst matchup. 12.25x damage isn't impressive anymore. And the biggest issue is that she can't use Liu Bei as anything but a stat stick.

Just do your customary 1-2 pulls to get what you want and save the rest of your stones for farming skillups.Congrats LGY - your DMeta team looks so good...

Looking at the PCGF list more carefully, I have 14/30 but I think I'd be okay with 7 of those dupes. Extra Verdandis/Lkalis/DQXQs/Blodins/Blonias have their uses on teams and I'd rather not waste my max skilled Genbu/Byakko on their awoken forms (especially if their current ultimates still fill a useful niche).
I'm thinking about these Awoken Lakshmi and Awoken Parvati teams.
Parvati team looks much better, only Parvati needs to be ultimate evolved.
I'm thinking of running a similar team except I'll probably have Aquaman over Karin.
Yeah I have Blonia. But What can Lakshmi do with a board without hearts?

Blonia > Lakshmi > Lakshmi
Needing a minimum of 3 actives for a single burst seems dicey but I assume the team can stall for skills reasonably well.
Using three actives (or often four with Hatsume) isn't the best, but it does put out a lot of damage. Blue Sonia adds significant HP to the team, making stalling easier. And there are times where a full board switch is necessary.
Lakshmi is a lot like a glorified Blue Sonia team with way more sub options and a much bigger burst that doesn't need a boost like Bubblie. Her base multiplier without hearts can do decent damage, especially with enough rows. She can stall anything that doesn't one hit her. The Lakshmi actives aren't just for offense, the leaders alone give you four healing options. The drain does enough for a mild heal and the heart orbs can be saved for another turn or used right away.

I hope it starts in a month so I can get more free stones. Only have enough for two rolls.
=(
Just went 2/2 on my last skillups for Ronia. I went 2/4 when I ult evo'd her at the beginning of this event. I can't remember how many the other one took, but I think it was <5, so 5/9 or something like that for max skill. Now I just need 2 more levels to hypermax my Urd when the rotation switches.
1/2 on Bonia skillups as well today, though that's like 1/10 I think. I'm holding on to 21 green fruits hopefully for the Verdandi I pull this week.

Wait... I didn't know this. I thought you had to match for the counter to go down... Is that only for skills!? O_O
You have to match orbs to reduce your skill counter but the bind counter goes down even when moving without matching.
my berry was max skilled before the update, its on 8 right now. but yeah awoken lak is the new hotness.
Wait is over. Announced for Sunday/Monday.
Looks like they dropped L.Meta (good for me, but I'm sure many others would be sad.)

So dartboard choice got Light Tron kicked. That's fine, although worse for new players since she's a great no-dupe roll. The level 50 thing is pretty sweet, everything comes ready to evo.
Some hints that an update may be coming next week. Wonder if we'll finally catch up a bit.

Had terrible luck trying to skill up my Time girls. My best was going 1/8 on my recently acquired Urd (iPad). On my others, Verdandi (iPhone) and Skuld (iPad) I got squat. Didn't use any red fruits on my other Urd (iPhone) as I need some to uevo my Liu Bei #3. I'll try and pick up some more this upcoming Thursday.
Looking forward to pulling in the PCGF. Not surprising that LKali and DKali are 1 and 2. I am surprised that Rodin is #3 though. I didn't realize he was so popular. I wouldn't mind having one on my iPad. I already have 2 on my iPhone.
Yomi is always a popular character. He was probably the first character with 2 time extends. More have them now, but he is still useful and he has 2 forms that you can go with depending on your needs. He will also probably be getting another uevo form sometime in the future.
Well I've cleared all of the Devil Challenges except for Devil Rush.
Also tried out the new challenge dungeons. Tried out level 8 with my iPad Ra (LKali friend) team. Seems a bit harder now. The Angels are out first (Raphael, Uriel, Gabriel, Michael), Twinlits, Awoken Minerva and finally Sandalphon.
I made it through them and up to Minerva. I struggled on her as she turned the center of the board to fire orbs and that made it harder to get at least 6 combos. (She absorbs anything 5 combos and below for 5 turns.)
I made it to Sandalphon with just a bit of HP left over. I used Ra and thought I had a good combo going on...Oh damn, I screwed up my wood combo...Nooooo..... and I got taken out...
I'll have to try again later. I should've been able to clear it if only I hadn't screwed up at the end...

I have dupes of Izanagi and already have Max Persephone, really wanted Light Meta. I'm grinding the heck out of stones in the coin dungeons. Should have around 15 rolls for this fest. Please RNG gods, be on my side.
JP Challenge Devil Rush can eat it.
Rewards aren't anything special, but the two stones I spent for stamina refresh are worth the sense of satisfaction alone.
Now I have to decide if it's better to skill up Osiris, Kamui, and fruit dragons or keep 2-3 more rolls out of my 65 stones for the JP PCGF.

Congrats on the clear Razterik. That's a tough dungeon to do. I died on Beezlebub last time I tried because I didn't have a board changer on my team. (all poison!)
Oh, I didn't know you could do this. Izanami hit me with her 10 turn reduce movement time by 2 seconds pre-emptive. I used my Awoken Ra skill to increase my movement time by 3 seconds and it overwrote her reduce movement time skill!
I did the same thing when I first tried it with my Awoken Ra team (iPad) and it did it. I threw Ra on the team to see if it really overwrote it and yes it did. Very nice and handy to know.
