That's awesome! Should really give the JP player a boost and I hope EN gets something good too.

BTW, Blitz and zgmfx19a, I know you guys have been at this game a long time. I'm just curious how far have you gotten? Are you farming zeus?

Hell no lol.

I barely played over a month, I'm nowhere close to that late game yet~

I had been playing 4 accounts at once, so I'm a bit slow on all of them, the highest rank I got was my US main topping at 74 at the moment.

I'm only 3 months in. I've got a team that can consistently farm Hera, and I should be able to clear 2 Heroes soon. Still far away from Zeus since I did not focus on any mono-color teams for now, but Dark is my next priority, and with that I should be able to clear Zeus within 20 stones.

I'm planning to do Dark -> Grass -> Water -> Fire -> Light teams in that order.

Cool. You guys know the game so well, I assumed you'd been playing for ages...

Also, I posted this on the official forums but am getting no responses, so I'd like to see what you guys think.

At this point I'm finding I have too many goals and not nearly enough stamina to pursue all of them. I'm curious how each of you picks what's most important to work on/improve for your team.

These are not in order of importance.

What to spend stamina on:
Complete more dungeons.
Farm metal dragons to power level monsters.
Farm Special Dungeons for rare creatures like mystic swordsman(I really need green for my team).
Farm creatures to skill up creatures (ie siren).
Farm Evo material for the monster that are ready or nearly ready to level.

Who to power-up/evolve:
Level creatures that need evolving to be good (ie Dragonette->Fafnir).
Level further my heavy hitters that take a ton of xp to gain levels now(ie Chaos Dragon Knight/Vampire Lord).
Level situational team members (ie Indra/Berserk/Shaitan)

For me, I fixed 2 main goals after digging through the articles and youtube videos (I've struck out the stuff I've cleared).

1) Set up a ADK+CDK+Echidna team
2) Clear Hera -> 2 Heroes -> Zeus

And after obtaining Amaterasu......
3) Obtain max level for Amaterasu, get +99rec on her.

So all of my stamina and monsters leveling were spent focusing on these three goals. I am actually really lucky to obtain Amaterasu, Neptune and Parvati to help me in my tasks, since they're really great monsters for Hera and 2 Heroes.



For stamina management, here's how I do it in terms of highest to lowest priority:
1) Special events (swordsmen encounter at CoS, MKII dungeons appearance, etc etc).
2) Mega Metal Dragon
3) Gold Metal Dragon
4) 3-colored Metal Dragon
5) 2x up Metal Dragon
6) Hera
7) 2 weeks special dungeons (till I get the drops I want and etc)
8) Days of the week dungeons if I need anything
9) Farming for leveling up
10) Clearing normal/technical (after getting past CoS for both normal and technical)
11) Metal Dragon

There is no point in clearing past CoS quickly except if you want to farm for Metal King Dragons and stuff at higher dungeons. They won't be running away.



Leveling priority:
1) +rec to Amaterasu
2) leveling Amaterasu to max level
3) max skill for 1st Siren
4) leveling core members for my goals
5) leveling core members for mono teams
6) randomly leveling other monsters



Team priority:
Dragons -> Dark -> Grass -> Water -> Fire -> Light

The only gods I want from that lineup is Grass Egyptian and Grass Odin, so I'll pass. Thank god I've got Neptune already.

Well, from my personal experience, I first set a possible and somewhat easily reachable goal (what kind of team I want to make), and just focus on that first.

For example, say that I'm focusing on my x4 Dark team first, and possibly Wood team after that, then even if stages like the Water/Fire Sky Dragon appeared, I wouldn't really bother, because I need those stamina on other things.

Same thing goes with whenever Metal or Jewel Dragons' dungeons are available, or like even with today's x2 drop rate for the Mask stages, if I don't need them, not gonna bother, they do come every week after all.

And once you passed Castle of Satan, you don't really have to push forward anymore unless you're aiming to get more free gem, because there's nothing that you really need to unlock to farm stuff.

[zgmfx19a]

For those who have obtained the Christmas Dragons off the JP event, I'll highly recommend you not to feed them away to other monsters despite their high EXP boost.

Someone from 2ch has actually cleared 2 Heroes without any stones by using that monster together with a relatively low leveled team. 2x HP and recovery is actually pretty good for players who has not reached end game yet (since it sort of doubles as a pseudo resist).

[buta]

WTF HP

yeah, they're pretty cool. i got the fire one and it's already higher attack/hp than a lot of other things. just needa add some random fire monsters.

[Riolu]

So i've tried the rare monster egg machine.... got my third late game light dragon.


If you vaguely hear someone yelling swears at the top of his lungs that'll be me.

[Riolu]

What's the easiest way to get mono/rainbow spirits?

[buta]

Friday's weekly dungeon.

Easy one for small sprites, harder one for the fat ones. With double drop, I've been getting stuff pretty easily, ie. a few rainbow masks and dragon fruits.

[Riolu]

Thanks, what would be the better team for fat sprites? Full on power, use a friends healer or resolve team?

[Tetra]

i'm really needing some stage2 amaterasu help, can anyone help me out?

Mmm, if you have an Odin friend, that's pretty good. And just get a full same color team and a healer leader. Resolve is kinda risky since round 4 usually has 3 attacking and chances are high that two will attack on the same turn. As long as you can take them out before they attack, resolve team should work. Boss hits for 7777 every 5 turns where as regular fatties hit for 6666 so as long as you can tank one of those somehow, you should be okay.

Why only Amaterasu Ookami only? I've never had one and only had 1 friend who uses it, but even then my Siren was more than enough to take out most stages. Like, healing back to full has never been the problem so much as being "1-hit" by two monsters attacking on the same turn that I couldn't kill and in that situation, she doesn't help. Just try getting a Siren from the Voice of the Siren in Sea Cave Mercury, buffing up her skill to max, and then getting her two her third evolution and you should be fine, imo.

[zgmfx19a]

Oh yeah.

Now to raise my dark team to an average level of 50 and I am set for Zeus.



Also,

[buta]

So would it be a better idea to spend stones on the Crystal Defenders gacha or just save for rare gacha? I have no clue what comes from the CD gacha so I wasn't sure if anything was worth it.

Eh, not really. Only the two healers and perhaps the bow hunter are worth getting. The rest are quite mediocre.

I'd rather wait for a better god fest and spend the stones then.

[Riolu]

Tried an Odin team, didn't work.

Resolve team wins again!
