    Some folks on App Invasion were saying a community rep allegedly posted that the miracle totem was weaker than intended yesterday, and that the difficulty would be harder in the future. If this is true or not I don't know, and if true I don't know if it was intentional or an oversight on their part.

    With that out of the way, I cleared that dungeon with two different teams. It was interesting how the experience was different for each. My rainbow team was all max 5* units. They also had to fight a dark totem on the way. Normal fights were very easy. The totem was somewhat difficult and needed a pretty good chunk of my items and one unit died. It took more turns to win than I would have liked without seals and ores. Although the rainbow team is *significantly* better at sparking I hadn't figured how to best utilize that yet.

    My mono light team had a very different experience. They are a mix of capped 4* and 5* units. Normal fights actually took a bit of a toll on them, and it took some items along the way to play it safe. I also don't get many sparks with that team. Totem fights though were a breeze. Once ores and seals were involved, it really felt like I was just steamrolling the totems and it took virtually no effort.

    Managed to get another miracle and dark totem. Now I just need a couple of metal/jewel parades and I can get my 2nd 6 star unit (Magress).

    Would be nice if you could trade at least evolution units with friends. I'm building a little fortress out of all my extra light totems and still need a bunch of dark totems :/

    Even if it cost a gem or something, or you had to trade three of one type for the one that you want... there's still ways to make it fair. At any rate, another interview said the dedicated light/dark totem dungeons are "soon" so I'm not too worried.

    I got everyone but lance in the last elemental dungeons the other week. Just hunting for some idols so I can evolve dark, light, and lightning to 4*. I've been using pixie leore and Alderney for my earth units. Wish I got in this game sooner.

    What's your team setup? I have 3 5*, 2 4* and finished it a few times. The Protector Set is really helpful, as the flutes can keep your team topped off many times. There are some encounters that are plain harder than others (like Mifune), but if you run it a few times, you're bound to get lucky.

    How do you guys get such high scores. My best is like 270k in middle lol. What am I missing. I've been using 6* eze, 5* loch, 5* lemia, 4* zeln and mimir healer.

    Also got the new water healer from summon. Was hoping for a non regen healer but I'll take what I can get I guess. Her ability seems great for a rainbow team

    It's really just endgame at this point so its pretty useless to go in there with anything but a full team of five stars or higher. If you have friends who have healers as their leader, make sure to grab them. I have a Phoenix God friend who I use regularly and it stacks with Alneu's leader skill.

    I'm still working on getting more 5 stars. I guess I just need more power houses to kill faster for better points. I probably will get my rainbow 5*/6* team going soon and can get better points then I hope. My plan for immediate future was 6 eze, 5 sefia, 5 lemia, 5 lario and 5 tiara.

    In the long run I will probably replace the lemia with 6 magress and lario with 6 lance. Just gotta get some leveling and evolution done now.

    Managed to get all the rewards from Middle, and almost finished End. Got up to the last stage.... and the boss was a Kikuri/Sefia tag team. Got one of them down to 50% before I got flattened.

    As for how to get higher points, you have to basically do certain things to get bonus points. Like, on the first stage (usually 6 burny things on Middle), give Fujin potions (I used Balance item set) to your 3 strongest units with AOE BBs, then use an Attack elixir and pop all 3 BBs together. Instant 70kish points. Basically the whole way its just getting all the enemies down to around 10% health, then using an Attack potion and using everyones BBs to get higher bonus points.
