Tomorrow will be awoken Bastet day (aka bestcat). I'm one red dublit away from her uveo.
So what's next on "projects"? Awoken Haku? Awoken susano? Or do I try and flesh out existing teams, like working on the red dragon called or pheonix rider?
Also what happens to all the extra awakenings if I devolve my Kirin for her awakening? Will I have to use all those Tamas again?

Guys, what's your click team for frozen soil of prossels? Shiva dragon takes soooo Long
Farming 3x normals? I would run Frozen Ground with Goemon and 5 Rodins Challenge mode. Tap Rodin first five floors, Goemon active floor 6, swipe floor 7.
Kind of gave up on 3x normals outside weekends. Rather sit on stones for 10x descends because they're roughly twice as efficient. Still running OoH on weekends for a steady plus stream in the interim.
Awakenings are saved, even if the card loses them. Once you switch her to A.Sakuya, you'll have the same number of completed awakenings you have now. You can even feed Tamadras in advance to have full awakenings when you evolve her, but it's a bit harder (though not impossible) to manage that.
If you're serious about Bastet, A.Susano is one of the best choices to move onto next. He's a solid sub for any dungeon, even ones where he's not required. And the extra bonus is he's an awesome sub for A.Sakuya.

Attempted Devils Domain, promptly got crushed by Corpse Wyrm. Guess my team needs more plus eggs
On the flip side I'm starting to run with A.Shiva a bit, and casually doing like 1.5mil per monster is kind of fun. I guess.

so I figured why not run the Thursday dungeon to try to skill tsubaki
I'm not sure if I even have a use for her - not sure its really worthy of a GFE status
so I run the Thursday dungeon - 5 times, 4 red fruit. 4/4 skill ups
a few pulls on the pal - another red fruit - another skill up. MaxSkill o.0
I can't make this shit up - Urd took almost 3 months, this card - one day? wtf.
and ares? grr ares not only has 8 skill ups it has a really crappy rate so far.
side rant: Why Blonia, Why?

Man, Awokens have done nothing to ease that awkward middle period of PAD playing. I have a great Awoken Sakuya squad ready on my JP account, but getting the evo mats terrifies me. I need a Fagan and Zhou Yu for Kirin, Tengu and Goemon for Susano and I need to get an Ilya invade. My 2 L. Kalis look easy to evolve in comparison. Fagan and Tengu in particular scare me.
JP getting short return of PAD Academy, but no changes beyond the already announced buffs.
Next event dungeon is Halloween themed!
NA guys get ready for that to appear here between Christmas and St Patricks Day, haha.
And there will be some awesome MP card that we never see.

No Pro has some tips for my flow?
The GF looks quite good for me. Shit...i need my couple of stones for +eggs and skill up farming.
2nd Vishnu would be perfect for my Bastet teams as well as getting Haku for a potential A.Yomi team. No Kalis and Norns though....whyyy ?
No specific tips - but you should try to use/get more units with TPA Awakenings on your Verdandi team. So you should use Griffin Rider in your team even if he isnt Balanced Type, outside of the Woodsy active he hits harder than all other units for your Verdandi. If you can Awoken Susano down the line he would be quite the upgrade to your squad.
Talking about longterm projects and Top Tier leaders you might wanna start preparing for Awoken Sakuya once we get her in a couple months so you can start clearing the tougher content. She has farmable subs like Valk, Verche, Ilya...and with Arcline, Susano(Awoken)and DKali you also have some very useful REM subs for her.
No expert on fire units, so maybe someone else can recommend a team.

Hmm, haven't thought about the Griffin Rider. Who should i throw out? My second Verdandi? Her orb Change is incredible useful, Susano with his shield too. Maybe ChuChu?
Hmm 2nd Vishnu in Verdandi team
. Ok its not necessary since I have nice Verd team already (only missing skill ups and + eggs).I have 20 stones so its 4 pulls for me. My alt has now 97 days. Why on the earth they had to do GF now
. Oh well alt makes 4 pulls too.Anyways pulling tomorrow rather than sunday.
Ugh I have died again trying to kill Mephistophel. Orb trolling can kill Ra team instantly. I wish I have a second Kali and there is no hope to roll Kali during this godfest.
I don't know what is the best action: use all my stones trying to get Kali again or use them to levelup my ABastet team.

I'll try that as soon my griffin is Awoken!
Thanks, sure an interresting possiblity^^
Awoken Minerva can cheese a lot of the heavy light/dark dungeons like the current Devils Domain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJtl4IeKRKM
Awoken Minerva / Awoken Leilan / RL Ares / Gadius / flex spot / Awoken Minerva friend

edit: new 50 stamina star vault in jp coming, guaranteed +eggs. I guess the trade off between this and 10x descend is speed.

Best friend reset is happening "sometime" next week in Japan. Anyone here have a hypermax Shiva Dragon or Yomi Dragon?
I can make that Minerva team. What would you use in the flex spot:
Awoken Shiva - +140
Awoken Horus
Yamato
Ronia - +297
Echidna
Fire Dragon Knight- for binds
Now i only Need a Zeus Vulcan and a Hera-Ur.... LMFAO
Don't know how i ever will get them.
Starlight Sanctuary King of the Gods is my final, i can't beat fucking Zeus....
3 rolls on Day 2 for me, would love to have pretty much anything on that list other than a 3rd fucking Hino :lol: (don't really want a dupe Orochi either). Urd would be sweet to start looking for ways to make use of those Hinos.
Tried challenge 7, don't know if there's anyway I can take down KoG with my Verdandi team. Got him down to half, with an extra skill up I'd be able to use Echidna but then he turns to fire and I doubt I can kill without some really lucky skyfalls. :/
When I hear 'cheese', a team full of rem subs and all +297 doesn't come to mind rofl
Had a lot of trouble with that too until I had gzl/Vishnu. I'd give it a shot once you get max level / awakened Griffin and bring Echidna.

Gonna try that, thanks!
I would switch out Gadius for Yamoto, he has skill bind resist which is way more useful these days and has a shorter cd as an orb changer. Since you have Lielan a second full board changer may be unnecessary for most dungeons.
As for the flex spot I guess it depends on the dungeon, generally speaking I would take another orb changer under normal circumstances.
But if you need a panic button delay in Echidna, and since uevo D Iza is a red sub type she would not be a bad sub for damage reduction. If you need more fire power Horus, or other Fire enhancing card. Shiva is not a bad sub for the occasional high defense cards. You already mentioned bind clear card for those type of dungeons. Lastly check for skill bind awakenings if you know a dungeon has an annoying skill bind move maybe configure you team to deal with that.
Yeah REM subs do help a lot, for 0 stone legend plus i imagine a more rem heavy team is zero stone capable lesser teams may need a stone or 2. But in general maybe 1 or 2 rem subs are needed for regular descends.
to add to Kyuur comment once you finish your verde team, think about stoning if you have too. Assuming you want to work on Awoken Minerva spending a stone or two might be worth it.
I just want to use the Minerva team for Devil Rush.

You lose points for push buttoning past floors in the new ranking dungeon, lol
Actually where the heck are the ranking dungeons for NA. It's getting to be around that time.

well first my team suggestion was really to show ZombAid82 what kind of team he can build from his box not really a team to beat Devils Domain. I just posted a video showing what Minerva can do if you work on her to tackle descends since ZombAid82 is somewhat new and he probably is not going to pull top tier stuff any time soon.
Minerva legend plus descend teams do need a lot of plus eggs I would say maybe 400 plus atk eggs just to be safe, you might need to bring atk enhance skill or be good at stalling and bursting at the right moment.
That said I would bring Ronia, Yamato also combos well Leilan and he has bind clear maybe drop Gadius. I want to say bring an enhance skill for fatty and to one shot Beez but I'm not sure how much plus eggs you got on your team. If you think you have enough atk then maybe enhance is not required. If you do think enhance is necessary then I think you should bring Shiva or Hera-Ur if you happen to have her..

I realized I had a Vishnu in my box,
Would he be a good candidate for a bestcat team? Or should I focus on low count orb changers (green valk/Leeza/verdandi/Perseus/Liu Biu?)

Vishnu is the best damage dealer sub for Bestcat... You need to skill him up for max efficiency though. You can bench Bei if you have Vishnu.

Hey, I've just recently started playing this game and rerolling trying to get a good starter leader. With the Godfest this weekend which ones should I shoot for? Thanks.

Depends on what dungeon you're running. Vishnu's active is way too random for my liking. I'd probably choose Vishnu for longer dungeons, but I'd much rather have Liu Biu's active for most stuff. Great burst option and can fix bad Verdandi/Meimei boards. I'd probably use him instead of running double Liu Bui or if I had to take out Perseus and still needed 100% SBR. I'd definitely use him over G. Valk or Leeza.

Really? They both have triple dual-prong, would the team be better with both?
Took you advice and spent an hour in the insect dungeon... 1 skill up for Leeza and 1 skill up for Vishnu...
It's going to be a long time skipping him up isn't it...
Thank you both for the tips on green. Red and old Kirin teams, I've got down, but green is kind of new (had verdandi for a lead but not a truly game hanging lead until bestcat). Sounds like Vishnu would be a good fit instead of g.valk. And then sub in GZL for Leeza if I need burst.
I dropped lei bei from my team after vishnu ult came out. The sbr is huge and gives my team more flexibility overall. base team has 5 sbr and then flex which doesn't need one.
Yeah it can take a bit, at least we have the 2,5x skill up event right now. It will be worth the effort.
In my experience Vishnus active is more flexible and useful overall. Higher combos can be an issue after Beis active. Verdandi/Meimei active + Vishnus active > Verdandi/Meimei + Beis active imo. Easier to combo + high sky fall chance.
At the end it depends also on the other avaliable subs... But with Vishnus active you can get enough orbs to take out 2-3 stages and he will be up again quite fast. I would only prefer Bei if I'm didn't have A.Meimei/Verd or Perseus.
There is two ways to look at rerolling these days, getting the best card that you can get for your entirety of pad playing, or getting a card that will be enough to enjoy the game to start with
You also have to keep in mind you will be able to pull all available REM card during godfest, but with so many special gods available some special gods are only available on certain days.
If you want an end game leader Kirin during the first day. Second day L Kali but it will be a while before you have the team cost to use her.
If you want beginner friendly and will IAP in the future or take your chances rolling a better lead in the future with free stones. Day 1, Haku is beginer friendly and probably still the most popular of the tri color gods, Not saying the otheres are not good but I imagine these days if people are still rocking tri color god leads its probably Haku. Red Sonia she is easy to play with and everybody has her but it will be some time before you have the team cost to play with her. Day 2 any of the Norns will do, but for NA Urd and Verd are the most popular ones.
Not part of the godfest but if you pull Bastet (the best one in this list), Isis, Horus, Osiris, Hathor, Nephthys, Da Qiao & Xiao Qiao are good rolls and beginner friendly enough.
JP BF renewal confirmed for next week, time to use it if you still have it.
I suppose I should buckle down and buy ShivDra with some of the old junk on this account. Would like to see what the MP Halloween card(s) are, but I'm pretty sure he's rotating out before the reveal. Really far away from evolving him, too.

And now comes the question. Do I use it on the Gadius that's currently my main or do I try and pick up an aspirational Awoken Kirin friend?
A.Sakuya is going to last longer in the meta than Gadius, who's arguably already slipped out from viable lead status.
I might be a bit biased, though, since I've near-hypered one and not the other.
Thinking about the Halloween dungeon, I wonder who's going to be skilled by the boss drop? None of the other color Heras ever got an ultimate with a changed skill.
Oh man, it would be so great/suck so much if they made it Halloween versions of the Chinese girls and they dropped skill ups for each Awoken form. Stamina cost would be a little better than farming orbs, but waifu whales would go nuts maxing the boss drops.

I think Gadius is still completely viable, but you are totally right that he is less viable long term than A. Sakuya. I also hope to get my A. Sakuya team up and running fairly soon and that team will be way better than the Gadius I'm rocking. I apparently I already had a hypermax A. Sakuya friend, so I just threw my best friend on her.

Lots of reroll guides out there, but specially for the featured pantheons I'd say
Top Starter Pulls
Day 1: Kirin, R.Sonia
Day 2: Urd, Verdandi, L.Kali, R.Sonia
Okay Starter Pulls
Day 1: Haku, Krishna, Vishnu, Durga, Gadius
Day 2: Keiji, Mitsuhide, Skuld, D.Kali
Fuck it I want to play
Day 1: the rest of the Chinese girls, both Metatrons, all five "Japanese" dragoncallers
Day 2: all five "Japanese" dragoncallers
Aww, you could've tagged me for A.Sakuya, heh.
I don't think Gadius is bad, just he's a little behind compared to where current leads are going. Especially not a fan of leads that lack a skill bind resist because you end up compromising your subs to compensate.
