Oh jeez, if I were still at home I'd offer to use my old iPhone as a burner device. Is there nobody you can find who could temporarily transfer the account onto their device?

unfortunately not at the moment - I have much higher priority information I have to take care of - I'm hoping this was a simple hack and they just drained the account without downloading the 2+ gigabyte photostream to data mine my information.

while the account is now locked the security "specialist" was uncertain if the hacker was was still able to access the photostream - so the account is also currently a litmus test - if the account is transferred then I know they are data mining my account, if not then I still have time to modify things.

for most accounts I have two step verification set - so I'm a little less stressed - my "real" e-mail address is not associated with my cell phone - but like a fool I took pictures of some documents I needed to fax - so there are some serious pieces of private information available.

 

[hermit7]

2 rolls.

Fenrir
Shaitan

Sold the dupe Shaitan. Not sure how to use Fenrir but he can stay in my box

 

[Epic Drop]

Sylph and a dupe Gabe. Can't complain to much though because during the gala I yolo rolled a new castor.

Question to those on my friends list:
How often do you use my Shiva/Bastet?

I'm considering swapping in A. Sakuya, A. Thor, or AA Luci in one of those spots but if people are using them I won't bother.

Also I'm sitting on 6 shynpys. I think it's time I use them and have lots of solid choices
A. Ama
A. Sakuya (hate farming Jewels)
A. Thor
A. Ra
Elia (because fuck that farm)

I think Thor has the most useful active outside of specific use cases (Sakuya gravity is obviously helpful for hitting damage thresholds). Ra's is great for push button farming but I can basically do that with my Shiva team.

Is there a "perfect" recipient of Shynpys besides RaDra I should be holding on to? Alternatively should I just hold on in the event a new light monster hotness arrives?

 

[Kyuur]

Scooped together another pull and get Maede Keiji. Maybe he would work well on an Awoken Apollo team with enhanced light skyfall?

I'm also considering the new Verche evolution vs Elia. With Ammy, my light team comps don't really need the extra SBR. With only one haste on the team anyways, I'm not sure how big a difference it makes compared to Verche's 2 less CD. The orb enhances are nice too.

Spoiler

Way less of a pain to skill up too.

A. Thor if you're going to develop a Thoria team, A. Ama probably if you're not, or after Thor. She's such a solid sub, and having her max skilled rules. I don't run Sakuya or Ra though, so I'm not an expert.

[perorist]

2 silvers and apollo, algedi, hathor, and lkali

Can finally take my sakuya team to the next level

 

[Epic Drop]

Does anyone know if zuohs skill up fodder ever goes back to being something easily farmable? I missed the chance to skill him up back when the green mask did so, and there's really no way to easily farm dark predras...

In JP is switched to Dub-Metalit's, which is super easy since you can run in non-stop when it's available. I'm hoping that's what it goes to next, since I'm in the same boat.

 

[Kreed]

Pulled twice and got Venus and Saria. Just staying in my box for now with Thor until I have better/more light subs for a light team option.

 

[darksagus]

Is there a site that you can build a team and test drive it so to speak, to play around with different builds?

 

[Brian Griffin]

Ganesha
Fuu (dupe, seriously FU Fuu)
Arcline (dupe)
Dark CyberDragon (dupe)
Ur_Chimera
WoodBahn
Zuoh x2
Guan Yu
Norn Verdani (dupe)

Wanted Rowphael. Oh well.

 

[atlantaguy]

Android app "combo master" is perfect for this. Let's you build teams, test damage on all board types, includes most active skills, etc.

 

[fek]

Was hoping FF collab monsters would get better buffs and that new monsters would be better. I will pull for the hype but I don't have anything to aim for.
CD collab is much better but I already got all the golds and the good silvers from it

 

[J0dy77]

I'm skipping this godfest altogether. No clue what to think of these new cards yet, I'm sure they'll pull into the Meta at some point but I have all but two of the JP and Archangels.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Pull until value:
evolved Cinderella
Venus

Light Gala stronk

 

[atlantaguy]

Pro Tip: don't go into C10 with Luci and start using Yomidra board solutions. Easy way to waste 100 stamina.

 

[enzo_gt]

Yeah I have 100 stones sitting around and I'm a relatively new (lol playing for just under a year) player, but I don't know about how useful these gods will be to me.

 

[J0dy77]

Pro Tip: don't go into C10 with Luci and start using Yomidra board solutions. Easy way to waste 100 stamina.

I feel like a boss this event. I took down c10 in one shot, 9 in 2 after a dumb mistake the first and one shot the rest. I was done by last Saturday, this week has been pretty boring with not much else to farm.

 

[razterik]

Don't sleep on half stamina multi, even if you're running solo. Cheap rank exp, mats, fodder and stones.

 

[Bladelaw]

Seconding this advice. Even just the Technicals and the alt. dungeons have kept me busy. It's great testing grounds for new teams too.

 

[hermit7]

Don't sleep on half stamina multi, even if you're running solo. Cheap rank exp, mats, fodder and stones.

Yeah I have been ranking a ton with coop.

The exp for God rush is around 2000/stam and I can pretty much constantly rank up if desired.

I have also been running the g/d dog dungeons for Drake and apoc skills too though.

 

[jay23]

Tried this team for Z8 unfortunately I didn't have enough HP to tank the hits on flr 9. Either way I made it to flr 10 were I died after not having the actives I needed up in time.

I still haven't tried coop with someone else is the HP doubled or did I read that wrong?

That is the case. Also you get to use actives on floor 9 as the skill delay doesn't effect the other team. Ra is great for that.

 

[cdViking]

Checking back in after GAF's advice from a couple of weeks ago with a much clearer picture of how the game operates, but without a clear direction forward. I want to be able to beat King of the Gods and start tackling low-level descends, at least on Legendary.

Current Team
Max Team Cost is 200. Have put together a mono-red (w/some secondary blue) farming team as follows:

Norn of the Past, Urd (near max level, +65, unsure about UEvo,)
Divine Martial Deity Cao Cao (unsure which UEvo, +50, all awoken skills, max level)
Cao Cao (need evo materials, max level)
Rowdy Red Samurai (Max Level, max skill up, awoken skills)
Meteor Volcano Dragon (~lvl 50, all awoken skills, skilled up)
Friend Reminiscent Norn, Urd (Hypermaxed)

This team can get me through any level Sky Dragons' Domain and Legendary Dragons' Footprints at 97% success. Can (unreliably) do Divine Queen's Sleepless Castle and fairly safely do Two Heroes (got through with no stones 2/3 attempts to get both heroes). Have not been able to get to a point where a single stone would help get me through King of the Gods.

At Rank 185/109 Stamina, I'm currently spamming the Mechdragon dungeons in 1P version of MP (they give 18,500-21,000 experience w/the 1/2 stamina MP dungeons for ~800 XP/stamina, and have consistently great fodder for monsters up to level 70). 100% success rate with wood over the last 20-30 runs, ~80% for Fi/Lt/Dk, and ~50% for Water.

My Box (iOS, no Padherder

I have all the stuff you can easily farm for, though not necessarily in Max level (mystic nights, healers, dragons, etc.). REM only monsters temporarily on the bench include:

Some/a lot of leveling
-2x GOdin (One UEvoed, Max Level, all awoken skills, ~+60; other is level 4 Odin I got for hitting 150)
-2x GSonia (First form for both)
- Dark Valk, (max level first UEvo, awoken skills, ~+50)
- Alfecca (Blue Cyberbeast)
- Indigo (level 50)
- Blue Wind Ninja, Hatsume
- Gusting Prodigy, Satsuke
- 2x Hera (one max level Awoken Hera, other max level Hera)
- 6* (pre-UEvo) Siegfried and Cu Chulainn

Minimal/no leveling
- Alfecca (Cyber dragon)
- Melon Dragon
- DQXQ
- Wandering Wizard, Wee Jas
- Ganesha (pulled this GF)
- Ra (pulled this GF)
- Dragon Rider
- Genie
- Gamble Mage (pulled this GF, GAH)
- 3x sticker girls

Best friend also has hypermaxed Spirit of the Masquerade Alraune and Saria.

I'm thinking about aiming for a red/blue team with double Norn or a healer/devil/god team with DValk/DAlraune (13.5x for dark row before row bonus).

 

[frostythecat]

Yolo rolled Saria.

That was pretty cool. Don't have a light team, but something to work for.

Double urd and double warrior king cao cao should be able to do kotg once they are all ready(uevo, all awakenings, high level)
Phoenix knight is better than ogre and dragon, especially with a new evolution coming soon

This team will give you at least 3 turns to take down Zeus in KOTG
More than enough I think


Good TPA red team, with 100% skill bind resist, 6 orb/board change (including friend's)
It will be ready to tackle many descends
me think

Edit: oh I misunderstood, thought u have 2 Urds XD

I don't think there is a much better team in your box right now than Urd/CaoCao/CaoCao/?/?/Urd. Lots of good pieces in there though, just need to pull more. You might be able to do something with Gronia/Gronia/Godin/Godin/CuChu and Verdandi/Sylvie friends, would be quite tanky but low damage would make it hard to defeat bosses with a boost. Can clear binds unlike the fire team but no skill bind resist.

I'd also switch out the Goblin for Gigas (farmable) when you have time.

 

[Quantum]

- my important accounts are all safe
- apparently my account was accessed from China (I'm in NYC, USA)
- no clue how pwd hacked as I'm very careful with not reusing
- it is unclear if my photo stream was downloaded or if my account was used just for the credit in itunes (about 400 US) - all of which was used to buy Chinese apps.

- I've decided to NOT transfer my PAD account - I can't change the secret number anyway and gunghos customer service is complete shit.

- If I loose my account I'll know my photostream was compromised. given the sheer number of photos I've taken of my account, the value of my PAD account and how much it would sell for I'm guessing that it is an easy target.

so, if 'island' disappears from your friends list or changes are made to the name you know I'm compromised.

tldr: I'm using my PAD account as bait to see if my photostream was compromised - my logic is that if it has been compromised transferring the account would not protect it, and I'm not willing to change devices every 30 days.

 

[hermit7]

Couple more rolls: Jize, ammy, dqxq

Have 2 max skilled dqs so I sold that and ammy.

Jize looks good for his direct damage. At 2 turns seems that it would be pretty good for the active skill transfer. Could throw it on valk and have it up in 7 turns.

 

[ZeroAKA]

My game shows that island last played 3 hours ago with Shiva Dragon as the leader.

 

[jay23]

I'm probably about to jinx myself but I'm 4/4 on Z8 skillups.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Not sure if this is widely known, but the way skill transfer works is that once skill #2 is charged, skill #1 begins charging again and they'll flip flop from one another.

 

[kenji_sama]

Cleared C10 with A.Luci team. I have used 1-stone because of .... Stupid SKYFALL that get her HP under 5%.
RNG of this game is brillant.

 

[Kreed]

Not sure if this is widely known, but the way skill transfer works is that once skill #2 is charged, skill #1 begins charging again and they'll flip flop from one another.

And here we thought this would be game breaking when they first announced it. Now it just sounds like an annoyance.

 

[tiltnkirby]

I did it, I won the pad.

Now I can quit the game and wait for pad2.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Now I can quit the game and wait for pad2.

Damn...very nice pull, congrats !!

 

[smbu2000]

Well I've been pulling on the CD collab. every time I get 5 stones and I've pulled only silvers on my iPad. On my iPhone, I've managed to pull Thief and Puppetmaster Santa. I really wanted Thief (character I was aiming for), so I'm very happy to pick him up! That power up, adding the 2nd bind resist makes him really good with full bind resist, a bind heal and 2 TPAs in addition to his great 75% damage reduction for 3 turns skill.

I also max skilled the Scheat I pulled in the last GF with only 10 blue orbs after the skill change. I need to try and put together a blue team with the Ryune, Scheat and Skuld that I've picked up recently.

Uevo'd my Yuna (FF) as well. I probably won't use her much, but she might be useful in certain situations.
Lightning looks really nice, but I don't think I'll be pulling in the regular FF collab. I haven't really used the cards that I picked up the last time it showed up.

@tiltnkirby: congrats on the pull! I was super excited when I pulled Eschamali awhile back. She's a mainstay on several teams.

Zeus Dragon has 100 million HP. He's immune to strikes over 20 million, hits like a truck, does 500% gravities, and puts up an 8 combo shield when below 50%. It's hilarious how impossible this looks.

 

[Ducarmel]

Why are these dungeons so hard? You would think the boss is amazing but they are nothing but trophies. If the game was more like MS and the boss drop was at least on par with some A tier REM cards I'd get why they are hard.

edit Got a Zuoh and light cyberbeast on my day 2 pull, got dark cyberbeast and a pad z crap day 1.


Excited about Zuoh will see how he fits on my A Pandora squad.

 

[Zombine]

So I pulled Pollux last night which was pretty exciting, along with Holy Knight Arcline. Now I'm trying to figure out what the best approach for a team is with Pollux. Is she a better leader or a Hathor sub? Now that I have Arcline should I retire Shynee?

One of the hardest things for me in this game is making non-devil teams. I can never conceptualized what I should do.

These PAD Radar dragons are supposed to pair with MP dragons. Zeus Dragon pairs with Ra Dragon, and gives him a HP multiplier. I don't know if it's better than RaDrag/RaDrag, but some people seem excited about these. I guess if someone runs RaDrag, they can just BF the one guy who spends a ton of stones getting Zeus Dragon.

 

[smbu2000]

Well I ended up buying RaDra on my main account. I don't have DKali, but I can use my Ragnarok Dragon for creating a usable board. He's not a god, but his God Killer awakening will help to make up for it in other ways. Maeda Keiji with his Drop Refresh and haste will also be useful hopefully with boards. I can always sub in Chocobo if I need to.

I'd just like to try and use him to see how he goes. I've used A.Ra quite a bit so it shouldn't be too difficult transitioning to him. It'll be a nice change from my YD team as well.

 

[HGH]

The GF gave me:
-Baal
-GoP Kali
-Red Knight Nim
-Holy Angel Ariel
-Izanagi
-Hattori Hanzo
-Denebola

I can't tell if this is a mix of bad and good or just mediocre.

I think its the awakenings that are turning me off about the card. If he had the awakenings to match Radrag or awakenings to fill some niche for Arena 2 or multiplayer mode I can totally get behind spending the stones it might take to get this card.

But I will keep an open mind I could be proven wrong.




Speaking of MP cards I do have 400k mp on my JP account. I just am not interested in the dragons but seeing the collab MP cards available I am eyeing Bikini Valk and H.Kali. Valk would give me the 5 turn orb changer I lack for my A.Pandora team, but I would have no use for her on any other team. I have a handful of Rainbow leaders so Kali would fit on a lot of teams if I decide to build them.

I accumulated a lot of free stones so i will see after FF Collab if I get lightning then I will buy Kali, if not then Clair.
