Is Shaitan good for anything?

No.

[Chaore]

Ah yes, about my trash pulls this godfest: Is Shaitan good for anything?

red balanced op master race obv

I have another HP boost healer friend! ...if you twinlit ult them, that is.

Man now I'm going to be looking for blue healers to use with dual I&I aren't I :fail:

[OverlordChirei]

My cunning plan has worked and now I am free until tomorrow

[Chaore]

HEY KIDS

WHO'S READY FOR SHINY NEW ULTIMATES LOCKED BEHIND UTTER HORSESHIT

[Edible]

Well, that is easily susano's coolest design yet

[Shizumarashi Mayuzumi]

Man now I'm going to be looking for blue healers to use with dual I&I aren't I :fail:

I reeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaally wanna use my blue valk but fuck if I know what to actually do with her and my only garbage for other blue healers. :V

(Should I maybe non-twinlit ult Lakshmi after all? but she doesn't have row in that ult but twinlit isn't healer ;_;)

[trancehime]

i hate everything

YamaP has plans to add a new mode

[Chaore]

Well, that is easily susano's coolest design yet

Yeah I'm somewhat out on newrochi (Especially if they end up changing his skill by having these be SUPERSPECIALAWESOMEDELUXEULTIMATES, because uh, force is ferocious as shit, and unless the new delay is not a shitter delay that's a massive downgrade ESPECIALLY for something that can't be skilled up.

But uh, Newsano looks cool and will probably be a p.solid upgrade.

(Should I maybe non-twinlit ult Lakshmi after all? but she doesn't have row in that ult but twinlit isn't healer ;_;)

You can also use blue valk in twinlit lakshmi teams now! Since she has a row, shes a better heartbreaker there than Siegfried would be since Twinlit slavors over rows.

[Suikama]

why am i always like 500 points off S rank

gungho pls

[The Greatest Dog]

Well it sure is nice that I get two Cockatrices off Mystic Water Dragon per run instead of getting one Phantom Chaser 15% of the time off Shore Maiden. I just need a total of 60 Cockatrices to feel comfortable about skill maxing two Gabriels.

whelp

please no stop i need the pandora fairies, don't convince me to go to water dragons ;w;

[Edible]

They don't even drop evolved, this is such a sham ;_;

[hyorinryu]

They don't even drop evolved, this is such a sham ;_;

Yeah, I still have to take care of all these dark chasers to skill up Haku. Well, at least the REM was kind enough to drop Hanzo for me right after Shore maiden left last time.

[commandercool]

What difficulty is the best for farming Cockatrices? I've done Mystic Water Dragon three times on Master so far and have gotten one evolved one and one unevolved one. At this rate it's going to take me slightly more than all week to get 30 of them, although that's not accounting for rank-ups. But it's also not accounting for potentially losing, which is possible if I get really unlucky trying to stall on a Cockatrice. And then after that I have to evolve a bunch of them, which is not exactly easy. By the time that happens 2x skillups will be long, long gone. I'm sure I can do Legend, but I think my odds of losing become significant enough that it will probably happen occasionally. Expert still has 7 floors but only one evolved Cockatrice (and a significantly lower stamina cost and experience ratio), but how much worse is the drop rate?

[The Greatest Dog]

On Legend, I have never not gotten a Cockatrice drop off floor 1+5 so far. Whether it's evolved or not has been random so far, but 25 stamina per 'trice is nice enough for me to go Legendary all the time.

The other drops from enemies and Antikythera have been great for leveling up the unevo'd Cockatrices, too.

[commandercool]

Hmm, okay. I'll do Legend. I might die, but 25 stamina per Cockatrice is much, much better than my current 60 per Cockatrice.

How do drop rate increases effect that? What will you do on 1.5x or 2x?

[Chaore]

They don't even drop evolved, this is such a sham ;_;

Yeah, that's kinda shitty.

Expected though. 'Make invade monsters NOT complete ass? Hahaha that's a joke, right?'

[Moogs Parfait]

Put another one down for Green Zhuge Liang on a yolo roll.

Pushing green attacker much Gung Ho?

[Thaws]

Pushing green attacker much Gung Ho?

Green is kinda sad.
Gungho's pushing all kinds of stuff for green but they never stick to one long enough to make it good.

Balance was the original green team obviously with woodsie being balanced, but they stopped getting pretty much anything. Cu Chulainn forever remains a mediocre beginner's team, but at least they have enough members to make a team.
Physical was the next thing they tried, with stuff like Hercules and Guan Yu. It'd explain why Parvati got physical maybe, but Parvati is pretty much the only notable member.
Then there was Attacker, which is said to be the next DMeta but the only reason they're good is because you can put 2 Sasuke and 2 Wood Rider in the team and call it a day.
For some reason there are some healers too but the only plausible leader is Bastet (or green valk?) and there's no reason to stick to healers if you're using a green bastet team.
Finally, with Meimei and Astaroth's ult came the possibility of green devils, which consists of them and wood hera and that's it. haha.

Gungho what are you thinking.
 
I'm still mad none of the chinese girls got a healer type.

Edit: Oh yeah, how could I forget the legendary Green dragon team. They were the best alongside with Vampire teams back in the early days of PAD. With Green Sonia they seem to be getting some poularity again? which is kinda nice I guess.

[commandercool]

Hmm, yup. Third Mystic Blue Dragon on Legendary was a failure. Granted I had to have some really, really unlikely conditions line up to die, but I can see that happening again occasionally. I should still be good, the math just barely supports maxing Gabe out based just off of evolved Cockatrice drops Sunday night if I get average or maybe slightly better-than-average skillup hits, and then I can turn to my stockpile of unevolved ones after that. That's assuming that I only die like one or two more times ever, and given that I lost on my third try that might not happen. I keep getting skillups on Nebradisk though, so I guess that's neat.

Good luck with the skill up.
Reminds me of when I did Gab skill up. Since it's roughly 33% of getting a evolved one on each of those cockatrice waves, probabilistically you should get 2 out of 3 runs. Well there was this time I got 0 in 2 runs, then on the 3rd run I got 2 evolved drops and died on boss. orz.

If you ever have to turn to the unevolved pile like I did, you might want to note that water samurai dragon's expert difficulty is a very good source of indigo demon masks. It appears on like every single wave. It's amazing.

Yup, that's basically what I'm worried about. What a nightmare.

Is that scheduled for anytime soon? I don't think I can really afford to hang onto these for weeks or months, since my box space is only okay (140) and I'm wary of spending stones because I predict pink REM in the near future and really need to save for Ruka. As it is I may just have to dedicate a week to running the things that drop the evo materials and keep my fingers crossed for a 2x skillup time to come along quickly. I'm guessing there will be some of those super-temporary ones coming up as the dark fairy dungeon draws to a close.

Finally got 4 awakenings on Hadar so I could transform him into 5 MECHDRAGON COMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Chaore]

Cattleya dungeon S-Rank and stone.

What.

That was easy.

For people on the JAP servers (and maybe US servers also)

Apparently someone told Yamamoto there's something going on (whatever) at Takaoka on the 13th and he's retweeted! Mostly likely this means Takaoka collab is finally coming back.

Amberjack is a good blue physical member and Amitan has very amazing awakens (Row enhance and a skill boost? Most descent bosses would be lucky to even get a skill boost or row alone) and REM-level-utility skill for a boss this easy.
Amitan is also very easy to skill up (guaranteed one per 50 stamina and no need to evolve). You'll never regret maxing his skill if you're using a green team, trust me.

[Edible]

Hopefully we get takaoka for more than like three days, so I can farm more amitan and get no skillups again

[The Greatest Dog]

I think I got mine max skilled in <10 attempts while it was here so I'm good. I'll pick up more fish, though, I guess.

Amitan really is great as a RCV stick and orb converter, though. If he had any form of sub-typing he'd probably turn into "Must Have" tier.

[Shizumarashi Mayuzumi]

Ran some more challenge mode since I was still on easy ones to eke out a couple more stones since Blade of Justice hates me and I like both the current fest and gala - got a Raphael which I am not at all inclined to complain about. :3

[The Greatest Dog]

got a Raphael

Everyone but me.
I'll take my new I&I and cry to myself.
