*Meanwhile, at Raf's PAD HQ.*

-Sir ! Technicals now have extra drop rates !
-What ?!? Get our Thoria down there right now ! Put our Newly Assembled Raf-Chirei Blue Team there too ! We need more Pengdras and +eggs !
-Aye Aye Commander !

Pretty much what happens on my head.

So. Hera Dragon is just tsukuyomi dragon with better stats, a gravity, an hp boost, and worse awakenings.

Sigh.

They're all meant to be hp-boosting analogues to the MP dragons since they all boost RCV, so I'm not sure what was expected here.

Something slightly less redundant?

commandercool · « **Reply #214 on:** April 12, 2016, 01:02:41 PM »

It woukd be pretty weird for them not to finish the pattern though now that it's established. And pretty fucking irritaring for me if they established a pattern of mediocrity, then decided to buck it specifically for black.

I mean they kinda did that for green though.

Which is why it's slightly less shit than the rest.

commandercool · « **Reply #216 on:** April 12, 2016, 01:53:40 PM »

Oh yeah, so they did. I don't know that they really had that much of a choice since Odin Dragon doesn't really have a leader skill, but that's a fair point.

They actually could've slapped a hp mod and called it a change, since odin's D does have a rcv modifier. It'd be awful though.

So in that one case, they decided the color deserved better.

MatsuriSakuragi · « **Reply #218 on:** April 12, 2016, 02:02:01 PM »

I can't say I've been paying that much attention to them to even realize there was a series of them. I just thought they were additional instances of overall powerful but generic MP dragons.

Jq1790 · « **Reply #219 on:** April 12, 2016, 03:26:22 PM »

Well you're not that far off. They're just a bunch of instances of overall powerful-minus-Awakenings generic ultraboss dragons designed to pair with their respective gen 1 MP dragon.

Mеа · « **Reply #220 on:** April 13, 2016, 03:22:27 AM »

Anyone have a bunch of multiplayer dungeons they still need to beat too before tonight's update for the stone? Figured I'd pair up since it would be quicker and safer for a few of the later ones. Preferably not the descended ones since I'm not too comfortable with those. Might ask on the irc if I don't get a response here.

New goal: Solo all Rogue dungeon on Mythical Plus difficulty with bastet
Jormungandr and Skill inheritance have opened up new possibilities for bastet and those rogue myth plus dungeons are finally looking more managable for bastet!
Not to mention I finally pulled a Kaede!

Currently no-stoned Zaerog8 and Linthia.
I have Baggi on Bastet and Zhydra on Elize.
tbh out of the remaining four, Volsung probably seems the most possible next.
But I'll be trying to figure something out for the other three!

The row based, bind-immune cyberdragons received a row heal.

I suppose I can use Sadalmelik for actual cleric purposes when Andromeda gets hit herself?

Considering the abundance of skill bind resists on Awoken I&I and Alrescha, I'm not even bothered by Cyberdragons not having any SBR. <3

People shit on the ninja buffs, and they're not wrong to do so, but I gotta say I'm going to be glad to have all those glasses for ranking dungeons.

Also, I guess I never looked at Linka closely enough to notice how adorbs she is. Top three cutest PADs probably. I'm glad she's exactly as slightly underwhelming as she is because if she was just a tiny bit better I might be tempted to buy her.

Who do bindable mons even have bind clears? It's like the most redundant awakening to have if I have to bring like Sleeping Beauty to unbind my APandas to unbind stuff, which by then will probably have been unbound. What in the what the what-what, bindho.

commandercool · « **Reply #232 on:** April 13, 2016, 03:01:20 PM »

Bind clears on bindable monsters do still have uses. Subs can help with leader binds, they're useful for random binds or type binds hitting other cards, etc. Yeah, if you have an unbindable bind clear as well they're less useful, but stacking bind clears is always diminishing returns.

Mеа · « **Reply #233 on:** April 13, 2016, 03:44:24 PM »

I suppose...
I've died like numerous times getting only my two leader APandas bound, then getting killed because of reduced health. I'm trying to imagine what the 'combined team health' could mean in a practical sense, like a team sharing health what? Maybe it's more like team morale, because it's not like your mons actually die, and then it would make sense for your 'health'/morale to decrease if your leaders get bound. But then my imagination runs wild and I'm like, then HP modifiers are more like CHARISMA modifiers, like "I'm on your team betch, get hype!!!!! x1.25⁽²⁾, woot woooot!!!!!", followed by all the puzzles and waifus/husbandos/furries/dargons getting sexual convulsions and flushed complexions and breezing through dungeons with increased 'morale'.

Wow that got weird quick.

commandercool · « **Reply #234 on:** April 13, 2016, 04:23:45 PM »

I mean yeah, that's why Gabriel has a 2x HP and RCV modifier. Too bad he's such a bondage entheusiast. Dude's a bind magnet is what I'm saying. And his safeword is "Snow White".

I just realized the alts being technical now means they now have a challenge mode. That's going to be interesting.

The Greatest Dog · « **Reply #235 on:** April 13, 2016, 04:39:17 PM »

as a former beelzebub main

can definitely confirm
everybody wants to bind HP leads

I feel like that would quite augment morale for certain units tho :V

All of Gabe's ~~subs~~ minions are real dumb and they panic the second they can't see his face. They have weak object permanence.

I'm not against angels in bondage, but I'd prefer they keep their hobbies off of the battlefield. Playing with the enemy is counterproductive.

Hey, there's some weird design space for Gungho. Now that we've got jammer meta how about bondage meta? Let's get a leader skill that scales off of number of bound teammates and a new drawback for actives that binds self or others after use. That would open them up to all sorts of crappy farmable Kalis.
