Heart Shield and Dragons Thread 32 - Some Festive Edition

[Chaore]

Yeah, like... Why though? Are they just done with MP cards because they think it discourages people from whaling? Asymmetry drives me crazy and this is asymmetrical (and just shitty obviously).

Literally the only reason I can think of is Xmas has just not sold well, so they downsized it's upgrade, and decided Gremory was clearly too strong to be an MP card (Which is honestly fair, girl is strong as shit and has a majority of the best red cards.) and just decided this would be okay.

Which it's not honestly.

It's probably just a comical mess of bad decisions and/or conservation of resources that just happens to screw over the unluckiest color.

Red has majorly benefitted from R/D Haku (Dark board change works with minerva which is really good) and well, Redbei (He's probably a solid top 10 at worst.). And Gremory is a HUGE jump in red lead power. Like, this is still REALLY GOOD.


....but it's stuck in an annual Rem and there's 0 pity for non-iap red players in this rem because xmas sonia is b a d.

Either that, or they wanted to focus on ny round 2 more and the two are far too close together (Your own damn fault there, gungho. Don't screw people over for that one.)

[commandercool]

Just got around to taking a closer look at the new cards and

Pollux and Castor.

Also wait that AS is amazing. :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V :V

What makes you say that? Is there some lead that wants that? Looks like a severe downgrade to the Constellation active to me.

It doesn't help that the Christmas REM has historically been a fucking joke too. I still haven't forgiven OR forgotten the deluge of Sharons I got, GungHo. Never will.

yeah i am extremely consumer shy of it as a whole because i remember the first two iterations

and last year was mostly me being unlucky but w o w

it really needed the same treatment as beach and halloween and i am slightly confuse it didn't get it

[MatsuriSakuragi]

Now that I think of it I may just skip christmas altogether and stockpile for NY stuff instead, because you know there's gonna be some ults and buffs and new stuff. May as well prepare for that instead imo

I'm tempted to flat pass for Heroine rem, but well...

Gremory will be the best red lead.

By miles.

I'm screwed, basically.

I might yolo roll once or twice in the Christmas REM once or twice. It's been nice to me. I forgot that Sonia was the 300k person. I thought it was Kali for some reason. Having neither Kali or Gremory is pretty shit. The least they could do is buff the Christmas and Halloween Sonias so they're in line with Green and Blue Sonia. that awakening set feels like it's a year or two old.

[Hikarin]

Well, for constellations themselves, you can just slap that on something and get a free popcorn without thinking.

It is worse overall, actually.

The mindless popcorn active combined with the art brings mindless ideas to my mind. I will take in any Star God, regardless of how good they are.

[Jq1790]

Friendly reminder that I had not considered: this PCGF is probably a really risky time to roll, even disregarding any interest people have in Christmas etc.  Tons of GFEs = tons of silvers probably, so be mindful.

[The Greatest Dog]

no Fenrir Viz = No rolls

MRW Isis gets in and Ronove's popularity manages to carry Rozuel with him

Edit: my A2 run :[

good civilization

besides the fact that pcgf is a nightmare concept that doesn't work these days

[OverlordChirei]

Xmas announced internationally, all you get is free rank 50 roll, no 500k grem

good game

it's funny cause sharon is pretty fucking god-tier now for blue

most of the wizards are actually

granted killer latents kind of lessen the impact now but they may as well not exist since the only way to currently get them is by farming A3 (lel)

yeah red is fucked


i mean a 12x lead for 500k mp would be a super steal but :salt: at least give me like

a red sub or some shit for 500k???

[O4rfish]

>come back to this game after more than a year
>fluffy tail got buffed to x100
>dungeons are easy now

[Chaore]

i've been using blue myr for easy clears for stones on joke dragon dungeons and

suddenly i'm good at her? i never even practiced. why is this card so broken nerf both blue and myr at once

[Jq1790]

Eeeyup, welcome to Myr.  I still hate her play style but both she and her clone are ridiculous.

this is like how chirei feels using skuld, except without the mind control and brainwashing by norns happening

just the disgust

[Jq1790]

Welp.  Meant to roll once, did five.  Didn't get trolled though somehow except I have no idea where/when I'll use half of these.

Krishna
Thanatos(evolved too so no evo mats to spend)
Hamal
Yomi(dupe)
Apocalypse(am I a magnet for these or something?  Third)

Nothing I was after but not a bad lineup.  Solid.

[MatsuriSakuragi]

I just oneshot the boss of c9 in one hit with RCeres team. That's over 31,111,112 damage in one shot. Hot damn.

[Jq1790]

Dang.  So much for that!  I need to do c8/9 tomorrow or Sunday...  Gotta get them Pys ready for when I wanna skill something special.

[MatsuriSakuragi]

After my large dump of resources into getting my Reincarnated teams on line, I definitely need to restock on things, too.

[hyorinryu]

I'm annoyed I can't beat C10. I've come close. But I've been one active short.

[commandercool]

C10 is... Not fun at all. Getting that close is a huge accomplishment. That said, co-op it. It's not worth the trouble solo. Too random.

It honestly feels like a case of 'gungho expected you to co-op this' it's so tight otherwise.

You -still- need a good deal of strong orb drops to clear it in co-op, even discounting me and commandant fooling around a bit.

Honestly if they at least gave you 297s it might be fair solo.

+4 second move time on ls so your movetime is doubled just on ls alone

[MatsuriSakuragi]

Yeah, long move times are so busted. It's what makes getting 144x with Yuna infinitely easier than getting even 100x with ASakuya.

[Chaore]

+4 second move time on ls so your movetime is doubled just on ls alone

honestly most of that goes into 'fuck shit oh god crosses are the worst shape to make with organic movements' but yeah

what really gets me is still 'I AM FUCKING NIGH INVULNERABLE TO ANYTHING YOU THROW AT ME BECAUSE LMAO SHIELD'

i could not pull half the shit i do on revo shiva like straight up and it feels really busted to just shrug off obvious fuckoff moves

and i'm definitely not running optimal (Swolemon not +297 yet, running gabriel instead of something with HP)

it's

dum

[hyorinryu]

I get reminded of this when I try C10. I think if I had even one or two seconds, I'd have cleared it by now.

C10 is... Not fun at all. Getting that close is a huge accomplishment. That said, co-op it. It's not worth the trouble solo. Too random.

I dunno. I actually find it kinda fun. It's like Dark Souls. Makes me kinda nostalgic for some elements of the game that don't show up as much now.



I wonder if there will be a a future LS that gives a lot of damage and time to move orbs, but in exchange, you have to solve boards as you get them.

[MatsuriSakuragi]

dark souls doesn't force you into situations of random chance and rng bullshit like pad does

in dark souls, every time you fail, you learn a little more from your mistakes, because if you die more than once to something in dark souls, it's on you for not learning from mistakes and learning the patterns

c10 in pad is pretty much just luck and praying for favorable drops
