    Picked up a baby Drawn Joker yesterday, and have been spamming Blue Sprite, as it has 2x drop rate atm. So far, it eludes me, and even Expert is pretty rough, without a 2x HP lead, since I'm just using Dublits. Getting a lot better with matching orbs, but the specific Kirin requirement is still pretty rare for me to consistently hit. Most of that is board placement though.

    My luck in this game has been holding nicely. I decided to go double King Baddie to reduce team cost so I can evolve and use my second Ronia.

    I've now evolved 2 Ronia and fed them off color Snow Globe Dragons, both times was able to get a Great to negate the off color penalty.

    LoL, and Blue Fiary drops on a Kirin and Umisachi team I decided to experiment with. I only had 2 5x combo; one to clear round 3 and one at the end. On the next turn, I hit a 25x combo into the GET Egg drop on Expert. 10 pal points too. >_>;

    Never doing that team again, especially on a Blue/Green dungeon.

    You always get your pal points when entering if you entered with someone you can get them from. You don't get them for completing, but for entering a dungeon. So let's say there was another evo carnival or the chibis come back for pal points. You could enter the first tier dungeons at half stam, so 2 stam per run, and just exit. Some people do that, but it's kind of a waste imo.

    The PAL point comment was more about the stars aligning on that last round, but I'll have to remember that half stamina trick, for later on.

    Blue Flame Knight, Nim is mine! lucky REM roll. she has made my attacker-type team go from decent to godly. normal dungeons were a chore; now I'm just straight plowing through them. the 2x HP modifier fixes so much of what was wrong with that team, and the 2.5x burst skill fixes the rest.

    not saying she'll last forever - but she should last me a very, very long time.

    not gonna lie, she's pretty awesome!

    stamina overflow seems irrelevant to me but I can see if you're IAP it would be nice? not that I'm not IAP... I'm totally IAP. just not for stamina

    "user" leaders is an amazing change that should have happened a while ago. I rarely made new friends after the game got hard simply because I couldn't afford to go in without dual leaders. very nice.

    also,

    Awoken Skill Changes

    The "Enhanced Orb" Awoken skills have been adjusted to include additional damage for all attributes.


    wait... what? like, enhanced dark orb now enhances everything? saw a few things online but they all had differing opinions as to what this means.

    ok, nobody told me that Keeper of Rainbow with a resolve group takes a very, very long time to kill lol. I mean it's impossible for me to die here - literally impossible, I couldn't die if I WANTED to - but my god, his health!

    I've resorted to spamming orb matches to get the fight over quicker. I think that is the correct strategy lol. planning out your moves for big combos that do ~1% damage is a waste of time.

    edit: half hour later... geez. lol. thank god he dropped; I would have been PISSED after all that if he didn't.

    Once you get your team lvled up some, you can just kill him normally. He only has 900k HP and you get like 5 turns. If you have a delay then you get forever.

    good point. I might have to look at his stats and do some maths. it probably wouldn't work right now but I can easily break 100k burst damage with some of my monsters so I'm not TOO far away.

    If your normal team can't kill it, I recommend using the padx friend finder and adding some random people with UEVO Odin with maxed awoken skills for the 2k autoheal. I finished awakening mine yesterday with Tamadra Retreat, but he's normally in the second friend slot rather than my main slot, so until you reach rank 120 and can use my other slot wouldn't help you much.

    With just an Odin friend you can't be killed by KoR, then you can whittle his HP down and also use Odin's skill for ~150k damage every time it's up. The first couple times I killed KoR I used Odin friends and then just spammed single combos to refresh his skill ASAP, which is probably a ton faster than using a standard resolve team.

    Now with a Ronia team it's easy to one shot him.

    I was wondering about that - Ronia I mean. Lu Bu's active + King Baddie's active + Ronia's leader + friend Ronia's leader + ??? = profit. I really need to try her out; I was waiting until I could sub Ronia to Ronia but 2x 30 cost + other subs is going to be a while. KB and Lu Bu and whatever trash devils I have around should be decent... I think.

    I have a Grodin friend up right now at least; I'll try that. thanks!

    Ronias don't truly shine till you evolve them for the row enhance awakenings. Sadly KBaddie and Lu Bu's skills don't stack so you have to choose one or the other.

    My normal team is dark focused with a Ronia friend. It has 3 fire row enhances, 5 dark row enhance, plus I use King Baddie (3x atk) and Lucifer (enhance dark orbs, 6% per orb) for the boss. Each row enhance provides 10% bonus damage. Typical final attack for me will do 300k+ fire and 300k+ dark damage per Ronia.

    what? they don't stack?! boo.

    so it's worth it to evolve Ronia once even though it ups the cost by 20, you think? I wasn't aware that's one of the reasons she's so good.

    I don't have Lucifer but I do have Cerberus so I should be set on orb enhancement. that was the luckiest PAD pull yet...

    I'll probably stick with my Nim team for quite a while... cheap and effective. Ronia, you get to wait a little while longer...

    Stacking row enhances with her active skill is the biggest reason Ronia is so great.

    Evolving her is great because not only do you get the row enhances, you get 2 skill boosts and her max attack from 5* to 6* goes from 770 to 1875.
