Well I pulled one last time before the FotN collab. ended and picked up
Yuria! on my iPad. Definitely happy to pick her up as I'm a big FotN fan. I have Kenshiro and Raoh (x2) on my iPhone, so I'm just missing Toki between the two of them. I already evo'd her.
Her active skill is pretty useful as it's similar to the Indian 2 gods except with hearts. Hearts drop more often for 3 turns and create 3 hearts from non-light orbs. (11 turns, max 6 turns)
Her leader skill is 1 heart combo 1.5x attack, 2 heart combos 2.5x attack. Connect 4 light orbs for 2x attack, up to 3x attack for 6 light orbs. Max attack is 7.5x for 2 heart combos and one light row. 56.25x with a friend, not including the extra damage for making a row.
The
Saria that I picked up in the last GF will be a great sub for Yuria. I'm currently using her as a sub in my A.Shiva team.
Now I just need more shynpys to skill her up. I gave her the one I just picked up in the current challenge dungeon.
On my iPhone I ran the Izanami 5x4 coin dungeon quite a bit (used 3 or 4 stones) and managed to pick up 5 dark damage reduction tamadras. Definitely happy about that in addition to getting the plus orb drops with 10x descends. I gave the latent tamas to my D.LKali and now I just just need to finish off plus egging her. Just need a few more ATK eggs.
I'll probably keep on running Izanami to see if I can pick up more dark damage reduction tamadras. My Kite team does very well on it and I can clear it very consistently.
In my situation the damage output is lower compared to my Bastet team for a lot more effort.I know he is good and i have a solid team for him...but having to match all 5 colors just to kill scrub enemies and getting orbtrolled from time to time kinda sucks.
Playing with Bastet, Sara and Sumire i tend to get even more offended by orbtrolls nowadays lol. Lets see if Sakuya can "save" me from that...if that fails there is still Awoken U&Y at some point. I am more comfortable with matching 4 colors consistent, but matching all 5 or you get nothing isnt appealing to me right now.
Ra isnt going anywhere though - i evolved, leveled and max skilled him - so at some point i will force myself to give him a fair shot. Pulling DKali or Isis and it would be more difficult to resist him.
Congrats - have you played around with Buffed up DMeta yet ? Is that a team you are interested in ?
Yeah having the right sub selection is always key for rougher Desc. Cant wait for FotN Collab to come back so i can max skill Wee Jas - still no Ceres here.
My main point was more in regards to elemental advantages though. Having to dish out twice as much damage against Nordis and Scarlet with Bastet isnt that easy - just not used to stalling for longer time on Bossfight and the more time it takes the likelier it is to mess things up. I never played and liked Ronia or even before that 2/4/2 HP leader that grinded down enemies.
From my startups U&Y and GZL it pretty much always was...if i dont OHKO the boss this will get ugly very fast for me. Still play more or less the same way even though i gotten more used to stalling with the increasing +egg number.
Its funny how these high HP bosses often keep me away from attempting the stage, yet when i finally decide to clear it damage is rarely an issue. Guess im still getting used to the power creep - not too long ago i would lose my shit if U&Y would hit for more than a million with multiple +TPA and a bunch of used skilled. Now Vishnu in a Bastet team alone hits harder than my whole U&Y team not too long ago. Nuts....
I think A.Sakuya will be quite helpful for the stages that arent to favorable for Bastet once she hits - so i can wait for her.
Yeah because of the low HP you more or less need a shield sub for tougher content.
Sakuya/LKali/LKali/A.Susano/Flex/Sakuya
Flex spot will depend on if 100% SBR is needed and/or how much dmg is needed. Right now im thinking Maeda Keiji or A.Ra for 100% SBR (i have given up on max skilling Elia), otherwise Apollo or a enhancer ala Sun Quan.
Wee Jas is good - just on tougher stages you sometimes cant stall long enough for his initial Cool Down - especially since he doesnt have any +Skill Awakenings on him. Once the FotN Collabo comes back and we can max skill him he will be way more useful.
Delay, hearts(healing),unbinding + time extend is actually amazing for a sub. Even better if he ever gets an Uevo.
Once you get used to Ra it's not quite so difficult to hit 5 colors. If you are orb trolled, sometimes attacking for 4x (by activating a skill) is enough to take out many scrubs.
I haven't tried out DMeta with her new skill yet. I still have my old team setup with DMeta/Hanzo x 2/DD Haku/(Pandora or Ronia) depending on what I was doing. DMeta and Haku are Hyper. Now she is much more flexible. I am planning on changing my DD Haku to A.Haku and running DMeta/A.Haku/Satsuki/Pandora and maybe Satsuki/Hanzo/Zuoh/Okuni.
I was planning on max skilling Wee Jas myself, but I didn't end up doing it. I mainly use my A.Ceres on my Bastet team when I need bind healing. I also just finished making my A.Amaterasu as well.
