Oh nooooooo nevermind. It's never come up before. I kind of forget you can continue at all, usually. Disregard.

Edit: Shit, and I was like seconds away from going in, too. Good thing you said that and good thing I read it right away. I mean, I guess it's possibly I would've won, but... Not really.

someone in kanagawa prefecture got arrested for selling application which edits BIN file and communicates with GungHo servers to cheat the system into giving people free shit

dont do this guys

[Janitor Morgan]

Hm, I need to make Tengu huge to tackle Defoud and the rush, but I'm too impatient with Canopus' fodder drops. There must be a dungeon with pengdra and king dragons in it somewhere I can try!

...
...



Unsure if that was actually better exp-wise, but at least that's one part of the challenge down.

[Suikama]

diagolos down

the secret to pad

1. get lucky

2. dont get unlucky

3. use isis everyone else sux

[OverlordChirei]

It JUST occurred to me that I can just drop a stone or two to clear Dragon Rush in the challenge. I should probably do that, I think two snowglobes is worth a stone or two to me (especially since I'll get a stone back for clearing everything). One should be enough to get me past Threedia. I hope?

[Chaore]

Greek 2.0 confirmed for next set of Ultimates, just secondary ults, so I'm assuming they'll get silly awakenings :v

tri skill boost hermes plz

[MatsuriSakuragi]

Please be good :ohdear:

[Thaws]

This purple challenge dungeon is bringing back those horrifying memories of throwing my head against devil rush with moonstet again and again.
5 tries at lv9 and still trying. I keep trying to kill Drall in one hit and he keeps surviving in one hit. I read other people's clears and they usually stall on it which I have no idea how they do it when drall gives you like 10 red orbs every turn turning all your hearts away.

This would be so much simpler if Nordis didn't bind dark so I can bring Elize. I got to Nordis once but couldn't deal enough damage because Elize is binded. I bring Verdandi instead and I can't kill Drall. halp

Also tried lv10 out of frustration, reached wave 4/5, Thief was 1 turn away from being up so I couldn't just press liu bei and kill Athena because 25k pre-empt goemon and so I dide. damnnnitttttt

[trancehime]

pulled blodin and sumire back to back in the bathroom

top lol

[MatsuriSakuragi]

Pulled for day 2 with stones I scrounged up.

>dupe Cursed Dragon, no skillup

Yay, two completely worthless rolls. Guess there's no reward in pulling without wasting copious amounts of money.

... And now to scramble around and rebuild before the inevitable star vault.

[OverlordChirei]

I just yolo'd a 6*!!!! ...sort of.

[MatsuriSakuragi]

That's who I was trying to get ;_;

Sometimes they drop in their evolved form. Happened to me once.

New version of latent awakenings.

[aUsernameIsFineToo]

Decided to yoloroll with just 8 stones:

Got a Sun Wukong, not long after I rolled a sun wukong from the PAD Academy REM.

Wait so how is this gonna work, assuming info was given?  (For those of us who don't read moonrunes)

[trancehime]

No info yet, will arrive Mid-July and TARGET implementation date is end of July.

[commandercool]

Oh no, evo mats rotation incoming. I'm not ready yet! I need one more Verdandi, two more white Kali, and one more black Kali skillup  At least I can do Orochi, but I don't really give a that much of a shit about Orochi and I can't use green masks for much, so my incentive is low.

[OverlordChirei]

time extends? who needs those anyway

[commandercool]

time extends? who needs those anyway

I do... 😓

[Janitor Morgan]

Good news: I know I can beat Defoud with the Luci setup I have going.

Bad news: rip 99 stamina because of a flubbed match that was entirely my fault. orz

[Edible]

Bluhh.  Getting Verdandi kinda has me spoiled for choice.

Awoken Bastet potential subs now include:

A. Parvati (excellent active/awakenings/stats, very hard sell to swap her out)
G/R Liu Bei (triple TPA chainsaw murderer, blow-your-house-down active)
Perseus (Hero active is too good, but maybe a little less synergy on teams with multiple G/R?)
A. Meimei (excellent active/awakening/stats, she's just... not in PAD US yet)
Michael (would need to skill/level him up, but holy shit his active works well with Meimei's; awakenings kinda suck though)
GZL (Worth using if running Liu Bei/Meimei/Michael, maybe?  Otherwise...)
Green Wee Jas (a lot of stuff doesn't resist delay these days, double Extend Time is great, but not really worth using unless I can skill him up)
Verdandi (It's Verdandi)

Few others like Sasuke/Artemis/Kano etc, but not really worth considering.

Prior to landing Verdandi I was going to go with Bastet/Liu Bei/Parvati/Meimei/Perseus/Bastet, which seems fantastic on paper, but Verdandi's just so good... hrlhfglh.

[commandercool]

I run Verdandi/Liu Bei/Cu Chu/GZL/Susano/Verdandi. I'd say you have to run Liu Bei obviously, but aside from that it's not so clear. I might avoid Meimei and more Verdandis because two board changes are a lot of board changes already.

I haven't been able to get Verdandi to output truly great damage, so unless your skillz are significantly sharper than mine (entirely possible) you may want a damage enhance. GZL sounds like the best one you've got to me, so you probably want to pack him. And if that's the case, you'll want more attackers. Michael or Sasuke would both be pretty decent, probably. I'd lean Sasuke because he has a prong.

So as someone who uses Verdandi as my tertiary team, I would run this with your stuff: Verdandi/Liu Bei/GZL/Sasuke/Parvati/Verdandi.

Edit: Never mind, I read it real bad  DISREGARD.

[Thaws]

Sasuke's definitely worth considering since he's a 5cd orb changer. I'd say swap Parvati or Sasuke depending on the dungeon, only one 5cd orb changer should be enough anyways.

GZL and Wee Jas are kinda too slow, you don't need the enhance from GZL for almost every case (if you do need enhance, Shotel is infinitely better but you gotta pull her first welp), Wee Jas can be situationally good though, just keep that in mind.

If you use Meimei then do Michael, if you use Verdandi then use Perseus seems to be the more logical choice, definitely go Perseus if you need SBR for something.

Liu Bei is a given.

In general, I'd say use Bastet/ (Parvati/Sasuke), (Meimei/Verdandi), (Perseus,Michael), Liu Bei / Bastet

Do you have any shield choices like kushi or susanoo (or even Indra)? You'd definitely need something like that for some dungeons.
I don't believe there's a template party for bastet and gungho's newer dungeon designs really force you to think outside the box sometimes,  so just keep your options in mind and change accordingly.

Are you aware trance wrote a comprehensive guide on A. Bastet on reddit?

[Espadas]

Used all my stones in the JP Godfest.....

- Mystic Flame Knight
- Shaitan
- Naga
- GrimRock
- LKali
- Toyceratops

....it WAS a godfest right? You could have fooled me.... This is by far my worst GF streak and no, getting LKali doesn't makes up for the rest.

No game, not even getting a Jewel of Light AND a Jewel of Wood with 2 Pal rolls makes up for it.....

[Edible]

Guides are for suckers :V

I don't have any even remotely viable shield options - no kushi, no indra, no susanoo, no ganesha, etc.  I don't even have an Asgard leveled up, though I suppose it wouldn't be difficult.  My go-to option for something that requires a specific HP breakpoint is sadly going to be "welp, time for another team".

In short, my fucking kingdom for a Thief.  ;_;  Evasion pls.

I actually do remember Trance writing that guide but I don't think I ever saw it.  Got a link?

getting LKali doesn't makes up for the rest

Sure it does!

[commandercool]

Isn't Medjed borderline viable as a shield? His awakenings are non-zero and he reduces by 50%, so that should just about always do it. Lack of a skillboost and shitty descend cooldown suck, but he should get the job done.
