[Suikama]

Run a team of 5 of them and you'll have the shiniest board ever

WHAAAAAAAT she's a real girl now! My insane need for symmetry will now allow me to play her! Rejoice.

That actually gives me a lot of faith in Gungho. It almost looks like they do care about our inability to get some collabs.

undoubtedly their facebook posts will still be flooded with "WHERE'S DBZ?" comments, though. Unfortunately, we don't give GungHo NA enough credit for what they can do.

I really honestly do think GungNA is doing all they can on their end. From what I hear, giveaways for stones and such used to be rare, and recently we might as well be getting one every day, or even more if you count the gift dungeons, very recent stream stones, and such. Past that, if the JP headquarters didn't authorize it, I imagine they can't deliver on that front.

I hear DBZ is more licensing bullshit than anything else rather than Gungho being stingy though. ...Then again licensing issues are always bullshit.

I suspect that the DOUBLE Angry Birds collab on Monday isn't even the tip of the iceberg for this event rush - November's coming soon with the supposed DC Comics collab...

[Chaore]

I have everything in this collab.

RIP my fucking everything.

It's cool but long overdue.

Like, all of this is.

-really- badly.

Call me cynical, but I'm not impressed nearly enough yet.

Call me back when you make a more significant offer, GunghoNA.

[Zerviscos]

Dragonball pls GungTroll.

[Thaws]

It's not the first time they did something like this, right?
NA got the expanded Batman dungeon first with skillups like Ra, Hermes...

Why is my Sarasvati so dumb. Currently at 3/27
If water insect dragon wasn't so easy to farm I'd be so orz right now.

[MatsuriSakuragi]

wait what we're getting both Angry Birds collabs at the same time

no this is bad

I have Valk/THREE Ame no Uzume/Kurone (and apparently they drop fully evolved?!) to skill up in normal AB AND Dino Rider/Gryps Rider/Fuu/Ruka/Cinderella/BOdin (if blue tama's in the dungeon) to do

This is going to be a trainwreck ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[Thaws]

(if blue tama's in the dungeon)

I'm 99% sure Blue tama will be in the new technical dungeon for the light #4 dragon.

I'll just concentrate on Sarasvati skill ups and ignore Angry Bird (except doing to getting the stone)
Only have 2 Uzumes, Kurone and the Dark Rider. Seems not worth it.

[Espadas]

GODFEST INCOMING! Archdemons, Egyptian and Greek Gods!

With also 1x chance for Apocalypse

Bye bye stones  :V


EDIT: Lol, and right after that Pink Rem at 4x rate  :3

[Zerviscos]

Egyptians are in bois.
Finally, time for me to say hello to my future Bastet.

Edit:
That's it I'm done with ToJ. Even on x2 Drops, I ran it 13 times and I only got 4 +eggs. The Jewel Dragons are nice and all, but they're only High Jewel Dragons. Didn't encounter Super King Gold, and I hate Dub-Mythlit, other than being stockpiled, he's an instant guarantee that if his egg drops, it's not a +egg. Carbuncles aren't even worth as monster fodder, and the only ones that are worth keeping is the final evo'd Carbuncles that you can use for your low-cost team. But I don't need them, 'cause I already have them(max skilled too).

I'm hunting +eggs, I neither care for the Jewel Dragons nor the Carbuncles. I WANT +EGGS.

Frustrated, I read the comments section of the dungeon, and found this.
http://puzzleanddragonsforum.com/showthread.php?tid=53465
And yes ofc, Tier 5 is still better than some dungeon specifically designed to drop more +eggs.

Also found this:
http://www.puzzleanddragonsforum.com/showthread.php?tid=8886

It's more about the ratio of +eggs/(exp/stamina), rather than +eggs/runs. ToJ might give you faster +eggs in X number of runs, but that's in exchange for exp/stamina. Stoning ToJ isn't worth it IMO, especially if you're Non-IAP like me. Srz, an average of +20 eggs for 5 stones, ISN'T worth it. Ofc, it's opposite for IAPs or players who doesn't care for Rank exp, and just wants +eggs. However, I ain't one of 'em(yet). Ruins of the Star Vault is much better for stoning.

Also, I might as well register in another forum, specifically the unofficial PaD forum.
I also found some user that had the same avatar as Edible. Makes me wonder if it's him. :derp:

[commandercool]

For anyone wondering about 2x  Tower Of Jewels, my runs so far indicate "adsolutely not, stay away". Two +eggs so far out of nine runs. That seems worse than any normal high-tier dungeon on 1.5x, and the experience here is bad. Anybody else have differemt findings?

Was kind of hoping the next godfest would be Three Kingdoms inclusive so that it would overlap the likely Gala Of Tides. Oh well. Might actually do one pull from my stockpile on this one since there's a lot I want. I've never not regretted doing that, but maybe I'm due.

Oh yeah, and got my Blueberry Dragon. 90 stamina maybe not worth it, but those awakenings sure are inspiring.

Against my utterly better judgment I yolo rolled for the Murakore.

>dupe fenrir knight kamui

FUCK

Re: Defour

Orb enhance awakenings are being buffed Soon(TM) but I wouldn't expect too much yet.

[commandercool]

What I'm going to be able to do in PAD for the immediate future is going to be heavily influenced by whether or not the Ruka skillup can drop evolved (and it's looking pretty likely that it doesn't). If it doesn't I'm going to have to put all of my plans on hold and start grinding the shit out of any dungeon that drops blue evolution masks while they're on 1.5x drops, since that normally isn't possible. And divert all spare stones to expanding box space (which, admittedly, I'm way overdue for anyway).

getting real tired of orbtrolling on turn 1 and 2 of Izanami
Thanks, game. You're a great guy.

I rolled and got Alarune orz
The thing is I'm still gonna roll because I need Hatsume and Hanzo ;-;

[OverlordChirei]

So I woke up to this.

<Nadeshiko-Matsuri> WELP
<Nadeshiko-Matsuri> died on first fucking round of Izanami

I decided I'd wait until after the stream to try T&S.  I MUST AVENGE MY FALLEN BROS



REVENGEANCEEEEEEE

[The Greatest Dog]

I can definitely do Izanami Descends reliably, I'm trying to get that Haku invade!

because I want my Ceres evo materials  :ohdear:

edit: I could do Izanami Descends on -Legend- reliably but then I accidentally walked into Mythical

Skill Bind resists doing work.

re-edit: holy crap L. Izanami skilled up

[OverlordChirei]

I think I'm screwed if I run into Liza. Not sure if I can handle all that incoming damage for 10 turns. Maybe I should slot GZL in for that 40% chance next time.

[commandercool]

Hmm. It just occurred to me that Isis might be really, really good on my team. I've been stockpiling stones for Sun Quan, and I have 50 right now. But the Egyptian godfest during the Gala Of Tides is coming up, and Blue Moon Sea Deity Isis fixes a significant hole in my team, being vulnerability to bind. She also has great stats. Her awakenings are questionable though, what with the lack of full bind immunity and the dubious orb enhances. How good do you think Isis is on a blue healer team? Is she worth blowing stones to fish for while she's at the highest possible appearance rate, or should I hold out for Sun Quan?

I think Isis is solid by herself if you need to build a rainbow team. Bind protection is also a good option to have, and orb enhances are supposedly getting buffed soon in JP. Also remember that the Gala of Tides does have SQ in it at boosted rates, so you technically do have a fair shot at SQ at godfest rates(?)(Edit: Apparently the rate for gala is 2x + pops out at Lv30, but still sort of notable.) while still being able to get specials.

[commandercool]

Well yeah, I think technically the correct answer is "just play an Isis team", so what I really need is two Ises. :wat: Not sure if I want to do that or not, or if I have the subs. And I can't remember if I have two Angelits. Don't think I do. Hmm, complicated.

Edit: Okay, I have more than enough Angelits, so that's not a thing.

Edit edit: Yeah, if galas had godfest rates I think they would be a bigger deal. I think. Not actually sure how the math would work out on that.

[OverlordChirei]

Note: Twinlit Isis is Physical. Healer Isis is not fully immune to binds and has significantly less HP, so take that how you will.

[Suikama]

50% bind resist is effectively 0% with gungho math so Shining Sea Isis >>> Blue Moon :V

[OverlordChirei]

50% does help a notable amount, but if you actually want no chance of failure, you could hope for LMeta(or the beach version if you're masochistic enough). She fits with B/L color and is fully immune to binds, amongst other things. Good luck skilling her up, though.
