Puzzle & Dragons (Arcade/3DS/Android/iOS)

[Tricen]

I'm so ready for A mei mei and suzaku. And Cao cao... Especially cao cao..

[Avarice]

Add skyfall turning a TPA into a 5-match column to the list; just got me killed on Lv9 challenge. =/

On the plus side, only 12 hours until next coin dungeon rotation and I can start (efficiently) farming Piis, Fire Sprites, Red Pirates, and Light Chasers.

[Tricen]

I didn't even do mechdragon rush once this rotation Oh well

[Yuri-G]

wait, light chasers are coming? which also means Neneko is coming... which means I get to decide whether spending untold amounts of coins and/or stones is worth skilling up Hatsume, or whether I should wait until approximately Septemberish when it comes around normally again.


fuck. I'll probably spend the coins... sigh.

[Avarice]

Yep. If PADX wasn't down, I'd link to rotation page. The current Alt. dungeons coming back in are no dupe as well, meaning actually good fucking xp/stam ratio (2nd floor Alt. Polar Night Tower is the one I plan to run for Woodpiis, at 973xp/stam).

[Tricen]

Oh snap, totally spamming that on ipad for hypermaxing a bastet :O. Hopefully my luck is garbage :<

[Avarice]

Coin dungeon rotation, finally here.

Also some MP information, most from Reddit.

The Latent Tamadras are rather underwhelming in comparison to what we (or at least I) thought they'd be.

Time Extends being 0.05sec is so much less than I thought it'd be; and Auto-Heal being 3% of the monster's base RCV kinda threw out my plan to make an OP auto-healing team. Although that one in particular I guess I should've expected; no way auto-healing 15000HP every turn would be allowed, lol.

The amount of monster points you get per sale is a little less than I'd hoped for, but not surprising either seeing as this is GungHo we're talking about.

Of note is to start saving up any 4-star REM Silvers that also drop from Descends, since those will sell for 3000MP each, and were apparently removed (having a chance to drop) from said Descends as of 8.1 in JP.

Also Shiva Dragon with a 9.99M exp curve, lol.

Edit:

This is fucking disgusting.

[Tricen]

They awoken tamadras can't be that impactful. The nonIAPers would complain, and rightfully so. They give the IAPers a little boost, but only slightly. I'm glad you can buy piis though, that's pretty sweet.

[Kachiko]

Well, the whole thing is pretty much for IAP only, considering REM only drops give anything close to descent points, and Shiva's 300K is way out of non-IAP reach. Descends should have been at least, 1K given you can get almost 10 points from just a normal T5/6 dungeon. 50 Descend wins doesn't sound terrible, for a guaranteed skill up Pii, though even at 1K, coin dungeons are probably a better drop rate.

[Tricen]

Non IAPers will probably be able to buy a pii at an ok rate. If they farm for it then a couple weeks, if not then a month or 2 I think.

[Avarice]

That feel when a Pii appears in coin dungeon, but alongside three other trash mobs, and an egg drops from one of the trash mobs before killing the Pii. Meaning that even after the effort of making matches again to kill the Pii, it's already a fact you won't get it. Truly terrible.

[Tricen]

Yup lol. Pii farming is quite disheartening

[Yuri-G]

farming Light Chaser for Hatsume skillups since no 2x normals this week


no more IAP for me, so I'm not stoning, meaning each full stamina bar costs me 250k for the dungeon


also not fusing until next skillup boost obviously, so I'll just have to hoard around 20 or so and hope it all works out


this is really a terrible idea lol




rather not wait until it comes around normally though, which is going to be Septemberish if previous trends continue. nothing better to do this week, and I have a ridiculous amount of coins, and a fully-skilled Hatsume would improve Andromeda exponentially, so... woo hoo, let's do this!

[Tricen]

Yeah, skill ups and +s are super important when you get to a certain point. I feel like the #1 priority is to get to the 200stamina mark. Stoning for things like king dragons and extreme dragons get so much better when 1 stone = 4runs/2runs respectively. That and it lets mechdragons' massive fortress become a better yield for + farming.

[Yuri-G]

yeah I would farm for rank this week but Hatsume is literally the most important upgrade in my box right now, with ult evo Kamui in a close second. those are the last two pieces to finish the Friday Mythical puzzle. then from Friday Mythical I'll get ult Pandora which opens up whole new worlds of Mythical farming... no turning back!

[Kachiko]

Speaking up upgrades...

The PAL machine finally put out, and I got not one, but two Gold Keepers, which prompted an immediate Fully Awoken/Leveled Sakuya. Now both of my main leads are maxed leveled/awoken.

Unfortunately, Gleaming Dragon made me feel really shitty about the game. 400 stamina, and only 2 Angelion/Wicked Lady skill ups, which is probably about average, but how this encourages anyone to spend money, is completely beyond me. Naga is also a sore point; been about three weeks, and I just can't get the last skill to max her since she's rarely dropping and won't skill up if it does....

I think if, I didn't get the gold keepers, I would have taken a long break, since I don't seem to be making much progress, aside from leveling a lot of red monsters, trying to get that last Naga skill up.

[Yuri-G]

400 stamina... that's actually not bad for two skillups, even during 2x drop rate. my first Persephone skillup cost me way more than that; the other ones came quicker fortunately. only ended up spending about 2 stones on my first Persephone to max her. my second Persephone, on the other hand, was being stubborn and will have to wait a few months to finish up.


getting decent drops so far in light chaser... 3 drops from two purchases. that's honestly not bad at all. at that rate I'll be spending ~10mil coins or so to get enough drops; I'm ok with this.

[Avarice]

Maintenance and new version for NA tonight and Awoken Meimei will be added. The unfortunate thing is that I don't really have a healer/physical team (Well, I do, but it's not really leveled/awoken; it's mostly a template atm) for getting Guan Yinping. Feels awful. I can either spend today and some stamina-stones (because I'm done with the REM for at least half a year; I've too many teams to work on) trying to get them leveled up, or try to make a psuedo team with what's already semi-decent in my box.

[Tricen]

The guan yinping dungeon isnt that hard. The guy before the boss is annoying. Don't drop him below like 30%

[Anakron]

Guan Yinping's dungeon has been made a whole lot easier now that sub-types also satisfy entry restrictions.
