The superstition is real.

And the best part is I only changed my avatar because the GZL art was fukken hot

[MatsuriSakuragi]

okay so

there are now 12 Egyptian Gods in PAD so far and since I'm bored tonight I did some research about them to see how they were all related.

The results... well...



Results inconclusive.

Basically everyone is everyone's parent, sibling, and offspring. The end. (Not really but good lord)

Let's just put it this way: Egyptian Mythology is really, really bizarre. Like this little story about Set and Horus!

[Thaws]

And then there's the unconfirmed story where Anubis is actually the son of Osiris not Set. Nephthys seduced Osiris (husband of Isis) and they had anubis. :V
(Because of this?) Set got angry and killed Osiris. Isis and Nephthys revived him by collecting his pieces of corpses (hence the difference between the pre-evolve and post-evolve pictures).
Then Horus was born to avenge his father Osiris, and literally kicked Set in the balls (okay probably not kick because of lack of legs but yea).

like... wtf did I just read.

[trancehime]

like... wtf did I just read.

there are several rationales stated for why Set got pissed off at Osiris. One of them is, as mentioned, the fact Osiris had sex with Nephthys (but not that the latter seduced him!). Another possible reason is that Set is getting revenge for a time when Osiris actually kicked him. Actually, it was a thing with the Egyptians that written words could change and/or affect reality, so they avoided writing about direct events like this, they just alluded to it.

Further allusion to the story with regards to Osiris' evolution is that his revival is actually incomplete, and Osiris eventually becomes the ruler of Duat, a distant and mysterious realm of the dead, which is directly referenced in the title of Osiris in his evolution, and his distinctly otherworldly appearance compared to his unevolved form where he actually looks human.

Incidentally, I got curious about some details in Contendings, which I had never read until Matsy linked the excerpt where Set tries to violate Horus in the post. Apparently there's some accounts where Thoth was actually produced instead of the golden disk above Set's head. In others, Thoth puts the disk over his own head.

We don't know if Horus actually literally kicked Set in the balls but we do know he either damaged them or stole them. That's right. In some accounts Horus actually stole Set's balls. But then again, Set stole one of Horus' eyes...

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the concept of Sleipnir (the horse of Odin) being the son of Loki and an humongous stallion, WITH LOKI AS THE PREGNANT MOTHER!

You know, Ancient Greek mythology might actually be the "normal" one, and that is a scary concept....  :V

Godfest results:

1) Echidna +1 (already have one ultevoed)
2) Snow White +1 (right after pink rem? already have one)
3) Angelion (tomorrow we have his specific dungeon)
4) Drawn Joker (already have one ultevoed and max awoken)

at this point i was swearing up a storm...... 

5) Bearded Deity, Guan Yu
6) Archangel Lucifer

Lucifer saved the day, since i really wanted him..... don't know what to think about GGY, don't know much about him apart from his frickin' awesome beard+mustache (and what is with me and Special Gods?  :V)

at least i got a skill up out of the Echidna....


EDIT: cleared on my first attempt The Thief Legend but only got coins from Jiraiya Goemon.... this doesn't seems to be a lucky day  :X

EDIT2: got it on second run, now i might have a reason to level up my long lost Gigas that stayed in the box since i started playing PAD  :V

[trancehime]

any particular reason you want AA Luci when FA Luci is better in almost every single way imaginable (even the buffs he got compared to AA Luci's)

Espadas is still pretty early on in the game, and AA Luci sleeps through every dungeon and early descend until endgame content.

I agree he's of limited use in the endgame but until then, he's still really really good.

Sorry to break it to you, but that AA Lucifer will be trash once you play "Puzzle and Boredom". AA Lucifer had it's time in the spotlight, not anymore.
Heck, Noah is better, and she's droppable.

Anyways, I did three rolls, 'cause it's Chinese Gods. But ofc, I got no Chinese God, instead I got 1.) Mystic F*cking Knight; 2.) Thor; 3.) Gryps Rider.
If I hadn't roll during the Director's Choice coinciding with the Godfest, I might've gotten something better with that third roll.

Oh well, with a Thor pull, atleast I can get my hands on this...
edit: not genderbended Loki...

Anyways, since the >only worthwhile God series for non-IAPs to roll on< has passed. Time to save stones until Egyptian 1.0 again.

he's gotten further than me in the game and I started a whole month before him

Q____Q

I played 1 and a half month ahead of commander cool, and he's near my rank and most likely has cleared more descends than me. I'm currently sitting around 2-4 ranks above him.

[trancehime]

oh yeah because i forgot about it this morning



yeah he is a bamf

༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Give Nut ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

[triangles]

Ok I am seriously digging Nut's design so pretty :*

[trancehime]

Ok I am seriously digging Nut's design so pretty :*

I'm actually pretty underwhelmed by Egyptian 2.0. Nephthys is literally the only Egyptian 2.0 whose leader skill can compete with Egyptian 1.0 and it takes some effort to make them good as subs. Oh well~

[Espadas]

Pretty much this. I know later on he will be less useful but first i've got to REACH the later part  :getdown:

(i admit i would rather drop something different from this godfest but since it is an unwritten rule that i cannot drop what i actually want and instead get other powerful stuff i'm more than fine with AA Luci  :V )

[Chaore]

Ok I am seriously digging Nut's design so pretty :*

Like I said, Isis' mom has got it goin' on.

[Zerviscos]

Okay, so I'm also now using JP Pad.
And thanks to "Clear Data", I don't need to keep reinstalling for Rerolls.

Anyways, Blonia is strong. But, do you think I should keep this as my starter? Or just try to get the, obvious recommended starter rolls?


Edit:
Why is JP Pad's screen is smaller? Lol.

Cost is 40. Welp time to reroll.

[Bio]

Blue Sonia has no subs. Plus 0 RCU makes it even more difficult.

Nah, she has subs.

That are named Blodin and other Blonia

EDIT:

Nut looks like she could have potential after all.

And yes that is 14000 HP with Nut being Lv6 and Kamui being Lv21. :V

[MatsuriSakuragi]

because everyone relevant to the discussion left IRC before I got to my computer

[12:02:34] <~Nadeshiko-Matsuri> Re: disappointment with egyptian 2.0
[12:02:38] <~Nadeshiko-Matsuri> don't forget that these are new
[12:02:45] <~Nadeshiko-Matsuri> they have ults eventually
[12:02:59] <~Nadeshiko-Matsuri> hell even isis was 3x only before ult
[12:03:08] <~Nadeshiko-Matsuri> and now she's the queen

[Suikama]

Egypt 2.0 are fine. HP/RCV increase abilities are not to be underestimated

Not to mention dual egypt 2 is x1.8 for both HP AND RCV, which is pretty ridiculous for a spike team


Like if my team had that I'd have almost 40K HP and 6k RCV :V

Also the team in my sig has 50K hp if I set the leader to Nut and everyone has +297. That's reaching early Luci territory :V

[Thaws]

I'm actually pretty underwhelmed by Egyptian 2.0. Nephthys is literally the only Egyptian 2.0 whose leader skill can compete with Egyptian 1.0 and it takes some effort to make them good as subs. Oh well~

Hathor is undoubtably better than Netero from HxH though. Same multiplier same condition but with extra hp/rcv.
She was announced as 4x back in the stream, so that was quite a nice surprise.

Since Max HP 4x atks also are getting inflated (See LZL), next time HxH revive the three gold eggs are definitely getting ults/buffs.
Yeah.... when HxH revives.... :V haha....

[Suikama]

okay now this dungeon is just fucked up

i mean come on

[Jq1790]

Ah, you hadn't seen the Rare Evo Material Rush before?  Still messed up, but still.

[Suikama]

I never bothered looking up coin dungeons until now

that mechdragon rush looks pretty sweet for farming rank ups oh man i should start farming coins


lmao nvm that dungeon is super easy compared to this
