Should I merge my 4 leilans? I can't see a reason to keep more than one. Especially since I have a third big one.

Do you wanna skill one of them up? If so then put them all on level 99 first for the guaranteed skillup.

Do the guaranteed skillups work like that?  Thought that only worked on ult'd monsters.

You can probably merge the 4 chibis unless you were going to try some ridiculous fire enhance stacking strats.

11 baby Tamadra feeds in a row. Zero awakenings.

Yup.

Edit:
Alright, so here are my Tamadra Village numbers. These might not be 100% accurate because I was going really fast in the last few minutes trying to cram in runs.

Cost:
1,000,000 gold
8 stones
990 stamina
192 stamina wasted when I refilled (wish I had overflow stamina...)

Spoils:
40 baby Tamadras
3 adults Tamadras from invades
2 adult Tamadras from enemy waves
2 adult Tamadras from the boss floor
3 red Tamadras
5 green Tamadras

Results:
10 awakenings from 40 feeds. 40 motherfucking feeds. That's nearly as poor of a rate as skillups.

Ugh.

So I got Meimei fully awoken, Athena finished, and Zhuge finished after using one of my seven adults. That means I have three left to do Verche once he gets evolved, two for blue Valkyrie's new awakenings, and one for white Valkyrie's new awakenings. I came in one under my overall goal, which is pretty bad for eight stones. On the other hand, that's not even two Dark Golems I don't want from the REM, so... Good, I guess? I'm more disappointed about the waste of gold, really, since that's 20 runs of Water Dragons Knight I won't get. If Sun Quan doesn't get skillmaxed I'm going to be super ultrasad, and it will likely be this ill-fated run's fault.

Edit edit:

What the fuck is up with the descends for this event? Why has Athena's dungeon been banished from PAD forever, why did we have to have Hercules two events in a row, and why is Hercules the only dungeon dropping blue orbs again? At least the green orb is in Thoth And Sopdet, which for my money is among the easiest descends on Mythical, but seriously, blue in Hercules again? Aaaaaaaah. Gift orbs please. Just gimme Karin orb.

Unfortunately Sunday has an orb I want in an easy dungeon, so I'll have to decide which is more important right now again. I should probably do the coins honestly, but if I do and Dragon Knights don't show up on the next coin dungeon rotation again I'll be peeved. Still, white Valkyrie isn't actually that important to me right now, so she can theoretically wait forever and Sun Quan can't.

I'd advise at least setting a rank-up loop if you can, and getting at least 10 million coins to set aside for Cleopatra. That's 20 hours of it you can put up. You should be able to get that much on Saturday, then the rest of sunday you can just farm.

How does a rank-up loop work? Alternate dungeons? If so I'm not sure how well I can handle them. I assume I can do it, but I've never tried and my team isn't the fastest thing ever. It'd be easier if my Athena team was done, and it's getting close, but it's not yet.

A rank-up loop is when you purposely get your exp bar almost full, and then wait for enough stamina to run a desired dungeon x times, with the last time being enough or more than enough to rank you up, artificially giving you more tries than normal. I'm sure you've done this a few times without realizing it was that.

Oh, right. I wouldn't have called that a loop since it doesn't go on endlessly, but I get what you mean. Yes, I do that all the time.

If you tie a loop in a piece of string it does not go on endlessly, it just now has a loop in it :V

Also my alt dungeon loops aren't "endless" either - you can only bang out so many runs before time runs out, which leads to me being paranoid about efficiency and speed and yyyeah you probably don't want to go down this way because there is only madness here.

We're getting a little conceptual here, but from the inside at least the loop in the string is endless, since you've tied off the end. But I think I was thinking of loops in fighting games and not even doing that right, because loops in fighting games aren't infinites.  :V

I am just having no luck today. Horrendous Tamadra Village results, zero out of seven skillup attempts since the surprise skillup boost, and zero out of dozens and dozens and dozens of green demon masks have dropped. That's all kay though, just building up that karma. Building it up for... Something.

I dunno why anyone would try to feed Baby Tamas. Srz, their evo mats aren't even hard to get. With the exception of Gold Dragons, which you have to wait for, but they practically drop at every floor.
If you have stones to spend for stamina refills, I'm sure you have stones for monster boxes where you could just farm evo mats and fill your boxes with it.

I'm already overflowing with evo mats for Baby Tamas right now, even my Gold Dragons has filled 70+ spaces already, and a shit-ton of Dragon Fruits from farming at Tower to the Sky x1.5, Thursday Dungeon, and Evo rushes. Why I have a lot? 'Cause I already evo'd all of my monsters that needs to be evo'ing with the Dragon Fruit.

As for me trying to awaken monsters. I don't necessarily awaken all of my monsters with Tamadras. Rather, easy farmable monsters, I awaken them with themselves. Eg. Mystic Knights.

You might think it's time consuming, but it's really not. If you already have max most of your main monsters, you probably have other monsters that aren't even leveled yet. There are days when you don't want to do some Special Dungeon, or can't. Instead, the only thing you can do to optimize your stamina is to farm at a Normal Tier 5 - 6 Dungeon that has x1.5 rate. So, you farm for: evo mats, monster fodder, +eggs*, and Rank Exp. Practically you're hitting four* birds with one stone. Assuming you've already maxed your main monsters, all those fodder monsters has to go somewhere, which is to your latter monsters. It'd be a waste not feeding them. You don't need to consume time on just one monster at a time, when you can just level them up with the corresponding dungeon that has x1.5 that day, and do another one that has a x1.5 the next day, and cycle.

I've saved a lot of Tamadras with this, and I haven't even used a lot of the free Tamadras you get from events. Most of them are sitting in my mailbox, unopened. With the oldest from 104 days ago.


I only use Tamadras on non-farmable monsters, like REM monsters, or high-exp max monsters like the Two Heroes, Cu Chu and Seig, farmable Gods, etc.
I already max awoken all my Ripper Dragons, and Mystic Knights, except Kamui, which is really hard to get, since he has no solo dungeon. 2/3 Awoken.

Ofc this works efficiently for Non-IAPs like me, or IAPs who don't like to spend much money.
If there's people who don't wanna get into this much trouble, then spend away. 50% chance of awakening is still low though.

What I would like is an easier way to get +eggs. Heck, even buy them if I'd want. Can't believe it took me 130+ days to hypermax Lu Bu(180+ days since I started playing, only at 50+ days I started feeding him +eggs).
