Oh my god. awesome. They made DMeta's ult better than when it was announced in the live broadcast
DMeta gets a 3rd skill boost and an active change to Enhance Dark Orbs + Damage reduction (10cd -> 7cd)
I'm not even mad my DMeta was at skill lv2 :V
Now she's gonna be useful as a sub for my Ra team with all these skill boosts and damage reduction in addition to being better in Dark teams in general. :V (I suck at using hp related LS, DMeta will forever be a sub with me :V )

GUESS WHO'S SUDDENLY REALLY HAPPY THEY GOT A WATER JEWEL YESTERDAY

NOW I HAVE ALL THE EVO MATERIALS I NEED


Also I'll be going for Strawberry Dragon. I already have Grape/Lemon/Berry, and I don't use wood types enough to care about Melon.

Also today is Hera-Sowilo day! I have 8 stones in stock. I MUST have that green jewel.

[Dr Rawr]

i hate fruit dragons well mostly the grape dragon

[OverlordChirei]

i hate fruit dragons well mostly the grape dragon

I have two grapes but wow that is nasty

I'd almost consider awakening fodder with the 9 they have and all

EDIT:

half-life 3 5M downloads part 2 confirmed.

[MatsuriSakuragi]

HEY GUYS GUESS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET HERA-SOWILO'S HP DOWN TO A FEW PIXELS AND HIT HER FULL BLAST WITH KIRIN WITH A 5 COMBO



:persona:

rip me

EDIT:



I DON'T THINK THIS DUNGEON IS WHERE I AM GOING TO GET MY GREEN JEWEL

[commandercool]

On my lunch break earlier I started doing Twilight Sanctuary on challenge mode. Went into Dragon Guardian with this team.

Nebradisk/Grodin/Grodin/Grodin/Grodin/Sakuya

See anything wrong with that team? :V

I won though.

[Espadas]

This game..... went into the fruit dragon dungeon while already possessing berry and grape dragons from rolls: Grape - Grape - Grape - Berry

Oh and 2 hours ago i made a wonderful discovery: contrary to what i thought, i could have cleared the jewel gift dungeon -_- I misread the HP of the chinagirls and didn't notice that with gravity + any active burst + MS i could have killed them (using Godin as my leader to heal any damage while whittling them down to near 20%)

Best part: i realized this exactly 1 minute before the dungeon ended, rushed into Pad to change my team and run it...... the dungeon ended while i was selecting the Special Dungeon section /shot

Nice way to begin the day  :V

[commandercool]

Just tried the fruit dragon dungeon and got strawberry->strawberry. This can be rerolled, right? I've spent 90 stamina now on something I don't care about. I'll just keep the next one evenif it's another duplicate. Should have kept the second one, in fact.

Also spent all of my pal points and just got dublits and divine masks again. I think this puts me well over 20 consecutive dublit and divine mask eggs from evo materials events. I mean, there's nothing particular I need, but still...

[Zerviscos]

They'll be doing another twitch stream. I'm gonna watch it. I kind of remember how fun watching live streams are...well that and the chat full of Kappas.

[Suikama]

oh sweet the fruit dragon even comes fully evolved

[commandercool]

Oh shit, double drops on Tower Of Jewels tomorrow. That seems like it might be worth doing. Can anyone confirm whether or not it's worth the effort?

[OverlordChirei]

Oh shit, double drops on Tower Of Jewels tomorrow. That seems like it might be worth doing. Can anyone confirm whether or not it's worth the effort?

The few times I've poked ToJ this week I've gotten a plus egg on almost every run, so I'm probably very heavily leaning yes.

[commandercool]

I've run in three times this week and gotten two +eggs, both off of the same run. The jewel dragons seem like they really make a mess of it since they can't drop with +s. Still, it looks like everything should line up perfectly so that I can go into it with full stamina tonight, rank up, do it some more, and maybe even rank up again if I take a break tomorrow to go powerlevel, so I have the potential to be able to do it a lot.

Celestial Dragon Emperor DEFOUR released, he's the new addition to the dragon Technical dungeons.

He could be a worthy sub for Apocalypse or LKali.

[Jq1790]

Decided to pick up Lemon Dragon as a possible sub for LMeta or if I ever do a normal monolight team.  Not a healer, but those awakenings are delicious.  Two light row enhances?  Yeah, I'll take it.  Plus skill boosts and such.

tbh, considering that it costs 15 stamina, even if you got 4 high dragons/super golds/dubmyths for the cannon fodder waves, that's still a really freakin' good deal for 15 stam. Also it might be good to mention that most of my plus were off the boss buncle, which always seems to drop.

Good choice. I was thinking of using Lemondra with that silly raph+valk+shynee+unicorn strat instead of unicorn despite not being healer type, solely because of the extra skillboost and light row.

Also where've ya been dood

Anyone that's been saving stones for Avalon Drake, your wait is almost over.

[The Greatest Dog]

So one of my friends took up Triangles' offer of a fresh newbie account and all with Light Metatron, Kushinadahime and Susano-o. As cool as that starting set is, it's not worth much without strong friend leaders, too!

His ID is 357,429,304, in case anyone wants to lend a helper.

I have extended the benevolent hand of Suzaku so that they may deliver swift defeat to the earlygame trash

[commandercool]

Does anyone on my friends list have a red Odin or a Neptune or something they can put up for a while? I want to finish Starlight Sanctuary on challenge mode and I need to grind Zeus down.

Also, I don't know anything about PAD Z. Any blue healer stuff I should know about?

[The Greatest Dog]

Also, I don't know anything about PAD Z. Any blue healer stuff I should know about?

Apparently there's a blue healer that boosts Water damage by 1.5x for a turn + 3000 HP healed, in addition to having a blue row/two-prong/skill boost.

other than that I dunno?

re: Chirei, I had to quote that. That was beautiful.

Avalon Drake is worth a special mention here for being an especially exceptional special-god tier monster from PADZ. He is one of the premier, top-tier subs for Athena. His skillup monster is the Sacred Green Mask.

For Dragon teams, Illusory Dragon Anima is a decent lead, BUT he can also be a sub for a Ronia team. Also for Dragon teams, Dragon Shogun is notable for his x2 Dragon Enhance active, at max skill level it is only 7 turn CD, plus he gets both a TPA and a Dark row. In fact, Dragon Shogun is superior to Draggie in almost every way - except for the fact Draggie is non-REM and farmable. Well, Shogun's enhance changes Hearts to Poison though. Hellfire Dragon Inferno is very good for Gaia, but that's about it.  Finally, Curse Dragon has an HP conditional x3.5 ATK boost for Dragon types, his AS is 35% damage taken reduction plus Dark orb enhance; he's decent as well.

Prometheus is neat as a sub because his active changes two colors to Fire.

Apparently there's a blue healer that boosts Water damage by 1.5x for a turn + 3000 HP healed, in addition to having a blue row/two-prong/skill boost.

Gaeble Chimera is a Blue Healer; his skill Ell-Heal is skilled up by Gale Wolf Hatii.

His LS is 1.5/1.5/1.5 to Healer types the same way Prometheus is 1.5/1.5/1.5 to Devil

As if it's a terrible reminder to finish skilling things up, the PEM gave me both a Cockatrice and a Red Chaser just now.

is this really necessary
edit: oh I guess Avalon Drake would be cool

Huh. That sounds not quite worth it. Pending the stats (I guess I can go find it) the awakenings are good, but the active is redundant with I&I in a way that doesn't seem that useful. I guess I could have one or the other up, but... Meh. Not gonna go fishing for it.

Yeah, I had heard of that one. That's the only thing I knew. What is PAD Z? Where did these designs come from? Why is this a separate thing from normal PAD?

[Suikama]

padZ is the Nintendo 3DS pad spinoff game that Gungho released a while back

[Edible]

I guess they finally decided not to release padz 3ds over here

[commandercool]

Oh, okay. Neat. That's another thing I'm very vaguely aware of the existence of, but I never tied the two together. Do people like it? Is it good?

[Suikama]

Holy shit finally after all these years we get a Green/Dark Physical monster. And it even has a delay active

If only it's RCV wasn't 0...

[The Greatest Dog]

more importantly

there's a Ruka skillup in the revamped Angry Bird stuff
COMMANDERCOOL DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS FOR US

[Mr. Sacchi]

What do you guys think of Defour? His awakenings are shit and 0 RCV but his leader and active skills seem to be pretty good.

For those that don't know, AS is a 19~9cd orbchange from heart and jammer to light, his LS is x3 atk to all att when attacking with light and dark. He has 4k HP and 1.4k atk. Dragon type and no subtype and his awakes are all color orb enhances.

The only problem I can see with him is the need for a Super Gold Dragon to evolve.

(And now that the numbered dragons are out, maybe they'll give not-Zaerog some uvos as well.)
