Puzzle and Dragons Thread XXVI - Everyday Christmas With Monster Musume

[Suikama]

Just had PAD's ingame mail censor "can use" as "c****e". I don't understand what it thinks it's censoring. Can use? Canuse? Is that close to a slur I don't know about or something?

Also FF, I'd like to borrow a Gabriel for Challenge 10 testing, one more Yamato Rush run a little later tonight, and maybe a Scarlet test run tomorrow if you have a slot available.

It's censoring 'anus' lmao

yeah it's really really dumb and probably one of the strictest censors ever which is funny because pad is like the only online game where people dont swear at each other constantly


Oh yeah watching Mecha Hera runs, the dungeon itself isn't actually too ridiculous aside from floor 4 absorb...

and uh 47k DAMAGE PREEMPTIVE

[commandercool]

Remove the front and last letters.

 :derp:

Gabriel has been in my first slot all day, and I'll keep him there until you say otherwise, yes?

Oh has he? I just looked and I didn't see him. Guess I missed him somehow.

Actually I don't see you at all on my friend select, so I guess it's just been too long (two hours, really? That's a gratuitously short timer) since you last logged in. I'll just keep an eye out then.

Don't team challenge teams have the total HP from both teams though? Assuming a normal team has ~24k with six members a team challenge team with ten members should be close to that. And ten slots gives you plenty of room for a shield.

I've been hoping this whole time that one bulky team memember+one DPS team member would work though, and it sounds like that might be a thing. Angel meta?

[Suikama]

In coop you get a little bit less than x2 HP, because you and your friend only contribute 5 monsters each (and you 'share' your leaders with each other)

A typical hypermax radra team in coop seems to have 46k HP so should be survivable with Isis shield

BUT if you try to solo the dungeon IT IS NOT ANY EASIER so have fun trying to survive

also in coop rushes

"YOU CANNOT KILL EXTREME KING WITH ONE A.RA'S ACTIVE AS HE HAS 77782 HP NOW."

YEP THAT'S GUNGTROLL

[The Greatest Dog]

Doesn't that mean... You can kill him with five  chip HP damage?

Being rank 500+ probably isn't helping the friend list thing. I'll just try to keep logging in frequently, then.

[trancehime]

So I just discovered F8 Lyncia has a pre-emptive awakening bind for 5 turns wth gungho

I actually have to use Freyr now gungho pls.

[commandercool]

That's weird, didn't they explicitly say it would be?

Don't go too far out of your way, I'll just keep an eye out.

Turns out I won't be doing Yamato Rush again today after all because I haven't done Phantom Beast's Garden yet for the stone and didn't realize it had two levels, so I won't have the stamina. Do want to do damage tests though.

[trancehime]

That's weird, didn't they explicitly say it would be?

no, they didn't say anything about specific changes for solo play.

[Suikama]

That's weird, didn't they explicitly say it would be?

What they ended up doing is adding a new above Legend Plus difficulty which is designed for Coop but you can try it solo if you're crazy. And Mecha Hera is only available in this difficulty.


also Hera Mecha seems to have a 1000% gravity attack at 10% lmaoooo

[commandercool]

So how do dungeon drops in coop work? Do both players get a copy of each drop?

Also, has Gungho said anything about when they'll be handing out the rewards for the ranking dungeon? I suppose I'm in no hurry, but it has been quite a while.

[Suikama]

Dungeon stamina costs and rewards function the same way a single player dungeon does.

[trancehime]

What they ended up doing is adding a new above Legend Plus difficulty which is designed for Coop but you can try it solo if you're crazy. And Mecha Hera is only available in this difficulty.

this is incorrect, Mech Hera has her own difficulty class 壊滅級 which is "Catastrophic"

The difficulty you're referring to is 超絶地獄級 which is essentially a Super Legend Plus

[Suikama]

oops thats what i get for using google translate lol


Oh yeah the new leveling dungeon boss has the coop boost awakening, I wonder how well she'd do vs Mecha Hera

Also Mecha Slayer awakening would probably make that 40 million hp look not so great anymore lol

Can Beyzul/Gabriel kill Satan in three turns?



2,736,932 damage.

So absolutely not in a million years.

Well shit.

Edit: I mean, Ryune or I&I could totally do it, so that's something. But I'm pretty sure they would both die quickly to Disco Hera. I'll probably try it with Ryune but I don't have high hopes.

Can't tank him out? His stats are normal here... and wouldn't double gabe have 80k health, so couldn't you whittle him down UNTIL Beyzul can sweep in for the KO?

I

didn't even think about that. I just assumed he did infinity damage, but his damage is actually really low. Yes, I can do that. Easily. Huh.

Assuming Zeus Olympios' God's Gaze is one-time use (which I think it is, right?) I should have no trouble at all clearing this with Gabriel. Stratios will probably take me a billion hours to kill, but I should be good to go.

[Suikama]

but stratios isnt even in the next c10

pdx says so but the official facebook says we should be getting set 18?

[commandercool]

Oh okay? Well I don't know what the fuck is happening then, I'll just have to wait and see. I'm still relying on PDX for my information and they're not very accurate. I don't see Facebook stuff.

[OverlordChirei]

This is the 18th time a set of challenge dungeons has arrived in NA. 18th set =/= set 18.

[Suikama]

18th set =/= set 18.

Santa's stats have been released:

Light/Fire, God/Dragon
2828/1378/418
Light OE, Fire OE, SBR
AS: 1 turn haste + fire and light skyfall chance boosted for three turns (7 min cd)
LS: 2.5x HP/5x ATK when you have Rouge, Vert, and Blanc in your team

So basically he's Aamir all over again, but with a different niche this time.

[The Greatest Dog]

Fire and Light Armored Dragon.

Figured it would be easy enough, so I go at it blind with Raoh.

Wave six is a preemptive gravity. RIP the 2.25x HP
Wave seven is a preemptive absorb fire for five turns.

:/ :/ :/ :/ :/

[commandercool]

I was kind of hoping for more from Santa. Would have liked to have seen somwthing really special, like a white Zaerogoo. And I suppose he sort of is, just much weaker in every way  His leader skill is interesting but seems bad. The stats bonuses would have to be astronomical for that restriction to be worth it. On the plus side, he seems likely to get an ultimate evolution next year where he'll become more impressive.

[Suikama]

Mecha Hera needs 16 million exp rofl

[Tea Devil]

Summary of all of my Christmas rolls

-Lilith
-Alraune x2
-Archangel
-Paulina x3

Not bad, I guess? _{I kinda want red Liu though.}

[commandercool]

So Gabriel died on floor three of Challenge 10 to massive trolling. I went in with Beyzul/Gabriel, which has around 40k health. Hera-Is does 16k a turn. I had three hearts already on the board going in.

Turn one: Preemptive skillbind, fair enough since I only have 40% resistance. Combo away most of the board, no heart drops.

Turn two: Down to 24k, combo away most of the board. No heart drops.

Turn three: Down to 8k, combo away most of the board including the three hearts I already had, back up to 40k, no heart drops.

Turn four: Down to 24k, no heart drops.

Turn five: Down to 8k. Skill bind runs out after this turn, I have two heartmakers up that I can't use.

Turn six: Dead with eight hearts on the board from skyfalls the previous turn, but none of them linked up.

:/

[Janitor Morgan]

Wheeee.

[The Greatest Dog]

This guy has stats.
I bought Star Vault because 5x technicals is trash and I didn't get the stone yet so why not.

Star Vault isn't bad when you're in a lull of 5x technicals, you know?

[OverlordChirei]

Rising Dark

Dark Orb Power saving mode turned on

[Mr. Sacchi]

Rising Dark

Dark Orb Power saving mode turned on

"All dark orb matches will not trigger an attack this turn, all dark orb matches next turn will deal bonus damage equal to 40% of the total damage stored in the turn this ability was activated."

[OverlordChirei]
