CASTLE OF SATAN BEAT

Which means that the game has now become hard mode and I've unlocked Technical Dungeons and now everything is gonna kick my ass hahahahahaha isn't this fun.

Anyway, I heard that there's a better way to levelling up your monsters once you get through the castle of Satan, I'll assume pengdras?

tbh I didn't think the first round of technicals was any harder, so hopefully you can do em.
 But yeah, pengdra's are the best way to level creatures aside from random special dungeons that may or may not come. Level the pengdra to 10 (takes about 2700 exp I believe), which alone is better than anything else you can farm regularly, and then ideally, evolve it with 2 metal dragons of the same colour (Except black or gold, which don't count anyway since they don't have their own technical dungeons) + 1 dragon plant. After you do so they are worth iirc half a metal dragon king

Honestly raw dungeon drops are fine until lvl 30 and unevolved pengdras are perfectly fine if you don't want to kill yourself farming the right materials and then using all your box space.

You don't even have to evolve them. Level 10 pengdra unevolved still give a fair amount of exp.

Lv. 10 unevo'd Pengdras provide 6,000 Exp, or 9,000 for on-element fusion.

Evo'd Pengdras provide 30,000 Exp, or 45,000 for on-element fusion.

Despite how huge the boost is when evolved, though, it's MUCH easier just getting 5 normal ones and using them instead of trying to evolve one, unless the corresponding jewel urgent dungeon is active at the time or will be soon after the Pengdra hunt.  More expensive coin-wise, of course, but worlds easier.

the real pain is getting dragon plants. at least metal dragon dungeons are guaranteed drops and have a chance of giving you highs, kings, and TAMADRA. the thursday dungeon just gives out shattered dreams and green carbuncles.

I've gone from basically nowhere to isis and odin 2 steps from max, Luci at 10 from max.

My complete advice for anyone skill upping, save 5 bosses and feed to the boss you're keeping. Only feed actual skill ups if a skill up occurs on the boss.

It's worked wonders for me so far. Like, seriously.

If that's indecipherable sorry lemme know and I'll  mess with it, a bit floaty headed atm.

Yeah that went over my head. What do you mean? Because I haven't got a single skillup yet (to be fair, I have been focusing on other skillups, like Vamp/Angelion/Megalodran, so)

okay try two super easy

step 1. Save five trash things that skill something you have up (in this case, the boss)

step 2. Feeding trash skill ups to thing you have.

step 3. If there is no skill up, wait a few hours and go back to step 1.

step 4. If there is a skill up on the thing you're feeding atm, party and feed all actually important skill ups, enjoy skill ups!

Though if you're just like, poking at the dungeon this probably won't help that much >>

I'll work on Haku when I'm finished woking on Satan. My little brother mains Haku, though he doesn't play that much.

EDIT: Max-skilled ADK. Feels good man.  I even got 2 skill-ups on Luci. That makes me 4/12.

New dungeon oh boy

100k defense dragons and 300k hp pengdras in the stage and 0 rcv orbs means stalling isn't an option. Floor 6 can be killed with poison but you need a 5 turn poison with skill boosts. Lilith poison is 10 turns max skilled and 5 turns with 5 skill boosts, so something like Echidna, Lilith, Tengu, BOdin/Stone dragon would work for any Egyptian team.

Also tamarodin looks kinda useful actually but unfortunately it's not an attacker

Oh yeah tricolor pirates farmable basically always :V

No dark/light pirates though. Kinda weird since the enemies are tricolor but the dungeon itself isn't (although it would be too easy if it was :V)

also obligatory one true god run of it

can we just talk about how cute that rodin tama is

Re: Puzzle & Dragons VIII - DO NOT PURSUE LU BU Edition
« Reply #79 on: March 24, 2014, 12:35:47 AM »
yes

funny thing is it's the hardest thing to get in the dungeon :derp:


the dragons themselves are interesting since they're REM tier with x4 leader attack and row awakenings but they have no subtype, a sorta useless active, and 0 RCV. They aren't optimal compared to Heroes but they could be good for non-iap to get in on the row awakening action.

Well then again they're very similar to the HxH collab leaders and Japan just loves those guys so maybe they have a really good team. I'm sure there's a lot you can do with x4 fire/water damage.

Meanwhile light att screwed again lol


okay the more i look at rodin tama the more i want it

its too cute

I totally know my future team for that twin dragon dungeon. Totally.
Dual Satan leads (that I'll need to get...), I can use the two RSonias that I have, a maxed skilled Tenth Angel, and something utility or other on the last slot.
I'd only need to stall one turn for Tenth Angel for the Rodin Tamadra, or I can eat the hit because Satans. All I would need is a reliable source of orbs...

Max skill your Ronias from Trifruits (lol).
Vamp is good orbchanger for Satan because you don't use the heart orbs.

Hm. In other news, fully awoken Bodin and Tengu. What was the team that used those? Physical Kirin?
[9:49:09] <Purvis> Generally not, but your mother may be an exception.

Bodin himself can be a good leader. Dig up the video Suikama posted a week or so ago.

But I guess Physical Kirin would be the ideal-- though, I feel he'd go great on a Sieg team too.

there are no heart orbs for Vampire in that dungeon. lol oops
I guess, I could use Gryps Rider Finn? Haku?
If I could pull Persephone or something, maybe. I'd probably just go CDKV.

Oh, right. In that case, FA Luci, if you can get one. Active skill probably won't be too useful (does it work if there are no light enemies on the screen?), but he has two row enhances and two skill boosts.

EDIT: I don't suppose King Baddie would be viable, on that note?

New descend gimmick! Much less terrible than cost restriction.

Also another pretty huge buff to isis since guess who basically plays nice with everyone

also luci is screwed again likely

From the sound of it, you might be able to go ulted Kirin and not Ulted Kirin.
