Monster Strike |OT| Lucy in the Sky with Divine Sharls

Can someone explain coop to me? It's only local searching? No friends list or over the internet searching? So you have to be near another person? Can you coop from android to ios?

Social invite is friends online, co-op "search" is locally based.

The Solo Hatcher is bullshit too, like 35+ pulls and so many duplicates and nothing above four stars.

well dang, just pulled a Zeus, unloaded a bunch of xp monsters on him and now he's at lvl 67. time to do some damage I guess?
What is the best monster for this?Mine is only level 10

Also is now the best time to spend orbs during release week? I have about 25 but I assume there will be god weeks like in P&D

This is the god week.

Boosted rates for Arthur and Zeus (top tier monsters) and Harley X/Odin (slightly lower tier). And you can only get Striker (who with his ascension is also top tier) in this event.

I'm used to Puzzle and Dragons, still learning this game. I'm surprised that you can get 5 star monsters from the friend hatcher, I just got Striker Jr.

After 2 days I have four 5 star monsters, Zeus, Lancelot X, Nobunaga, and Striker Jr. The first 3 all have 5 luck. I also have fifteen 4 star monsters that I won't get rid of until I figure out which ones are good. We need an English wiki for this game.

Edit. I like the 3 minute stamina timer in this game. P&D needs to drop theirs to 5 minutes ASAP in the US version.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
Friendlist is busted again - of course ;-)
Hope this get fixed soon.

Any consensus on how to upgrade Zeus? Is it better to Evo and then Dark Ascend him or is it better to go from 5* straight to the Dark Ascension?

Was saving my orbs but couldn't resist and used some. Ended up getting Zeus and Odin so now I think I have a pretty good team with Striker too
 
The game is fun, but I got two major issues.
1. The game is resource heavy on RAM and battery. It resets itself so often.
2. The host glitch

It is where your party gets a DC for no reason. It is really annoying when rare drops happen.

Second 10 star roll, really wanted to get Striker as he's event exclusive and I need some super saiyan in my Monster Strike, only got one five star, Arthur. Dem conflicted feels. Its odd, considering the dominance of co-op play putting a team together in this feels like an afterthought so far. It seems much more about getting one or maybe two good units and focusing on them.

I would like to know this also as well aa translation to what I am quoting means :p

From what I understand (and if you go into Zeus under the evolve menu you can sort of see) is that you have the option of evolving him (which increases him to 6*) which uses catalysts or "ascending" him which also brings him to 6* and comes in light or dark flavours and uses monsters. I think you can either go 5* -> Evolve to 6* -> Ascend to Dark (dark apparently being the better of the two ascensions) or you can go 5* -> Ascend to dark.

Not entirely sure of the pros and cons (or if thats right as its largely gathered from machine translated pages)
 
The only difference, it seems, is the quality of material to ascend; For example going directly from Striker -> God Striker takes a 10* Slash while Super Striker -> God Striker only requires 6*.

Cosmo Clock 21 can you put this PSA in the op regarding multiplayer.


When hosting a match and you are sent out of the game to post the link, sometimes the game restarts. When this happens you wont go to the dungeon or stage you selected to host. Instead you will host the last dungeon you successfully ran.

So if you don't see the friends invite list when you get back in the game but see a black screen then a connecting to a server prompt it means the app restarted you then will see the update/news screen then it will connect you to the searching striker screen.

To confirm the bug exist continue to connect and host when you see the searching for strikers screen click the back button click yes and you will see the dungeon stage is different from the one you selected. Of course if you are spamming the same dungeon over and over then the bug should not concern you.

I stopped hosting games because of it.

Yeah, I've noticed the RAM issue too. I have an iPhone 5S< so it shouldn't be having problems like this.

Oh, and thanks to Doob hosting an SS Hard, I finally got a Divine Sharl and can upgrade my Zeus! As for whether it's better to evolve and then Descend, it you do that you required two less Dark Dragons [for Dark Descend], which I've heard isn't easy to obtain. I'll definitely be evolving now to 6*, and then working on his Dark Ascension.

Also, on the subject of when they add new Units, would you recommend pulling more [if you already have a Zeus/Striker like I do] in the hopes for an Arthur, Odin, Hunter King, Harley X], or to save your Orbs for the next "themed" gatcha, where they'll probably have a couple new Units as well as another exclusive to go after. However, if it's going to be 6+ months before they add anything new, I might as well use what I have now so I have things to level up, as well as to strengthen my current team.

I know it can be a difficult thing to predict though, since what happened in the Japanese release won't necessarily occur here.
 
Enjoying the game, on my 2nd reroll I got Zeus +5 luck and Arthur. Rank 20? now but man does the game choke on an Iphone 4 when things get crazy... (slideshow)

Speaking of, is anyone else's game crashing on android? It stutters but doesn't crash on my Iphone 4 but on girl's Samsung Galaxy 4, it will often crash... I read it's due to lack of memory but no matter what it's just random. Really a buzzkill as she likes it more than PAD when it doesn't crash.

There seems to be a memory issue. A lot of people, myself included, are experiencing it. Granted I've never had my game crash because of it, but I do get the warning occasionally [iPhone 5S].

Also, I've heard that the only way to truly "save" your current file is to link it to your Apple Game Center account, but I see no prompt anywhere in the options for it. I have the data10.bin file saved to my PC, but I'd like to get something a bit more permanent in case anything bad happens. ~_~

Why is Jupiter a "keepable"? She's a 4* character, isn't she?

Edit: After watching some japanese Monster Strike vids, I really need some good null gravity characters LOL.

Yeah!!! Got Striker. Ah, love it when I get lucky. Game is so good!!
Congrats! He's a great Unit [when Descended].

I did a 10 pull, hoping to add Arthus/Odin/Harley X to my collection. I got Wild Cat, and two more 5*, but no luck. I have enough for another 10 pull, but I might save it. ~_~

Anyone know why I wouldn't be receiving the co-op Striker bonuses? Looking through my mail I have yet to receive one even though I've played tons of co-op :/

Thank you man. I really wanted Striker since he is only for a limited time. I was all like Antonio banderas gif when I pulled him. Damn that street fighter creator for making such an addicting game. Lol.
 
I have a Striker jr from the friend hatcher. Is he any good?

What is your team of three make up look like? Do you just have all your rarest monsters or do you use skill combos that work well together?


Harley X is my main I have a 4 star albacore because of her bump combo and a 4 star shiva because I leveled it higher.

My other five star monsters are
Harely
Oda Nobunga x
Striker Jr

Should feed harle to harely x? her skills are nowhere near as good.

IOS or Android? I haven't had a single memory issue on IOS. Just once, because terra battle was also running along with a bunch of other stuff, monster strike gave a message about reduced effects due to low memory so I quit terra battle.

No crashes, no disconnects, no drama at all.

It is crazy addicting. These past few days I've been playing it more than my consoles titles. That's unheard of!

Striker Jr. is weak to begin with, but his stat cap for Morlings is higher than other Units.

As for my team, I'm mostly just using my 5* at the moment. The content isn't difficult enough yet to need a specific team set.

For Harley, I'd keep her. You'll never know when they might buff certain Units so she'll be nice to have.
 
I did my first 10 pull because of orbs from co-op, and got
Valkyrie
Wildcat
Lancelot
Striker
all with 5 luck each, and a bunch of interesting 4 stars including Albacore.

Now I've way too many nearly useless Mormites, Morlyfes and Morquiks -- but need to lurk around for the EXP events.

So very many dupe Masamunes, so sick of seeing her stupid blue panties appear out of that light

Cant you just feed them to one another and then to your best mob?
 
What happens if you link an account to Google then delete the info to reroll and you get another account you want more. If you link it again does it replace the old one?

Has anyone been able to successfully claim the 5 stones for inviting a friend and having them download the game? I sent my girlfriend the invite via text message 3 days ago and nothing. She's farther along in the game than I am at this point. Would it have anything to do with the fact that she's on iOS and I'm on Android? Or maybe it was the text message method?

I immediately feed dupe Masamune to the original as soon as I get her. :/

And yes, you can. That's the proper way to stack +stat Morling, just be sure not to go over their cap [Rare and Super Rare have different caps].

And always fees the one with higher stats to the new one, as there's a chance that the higher one bonus will get doubled.

Just added you. I'm Patz (873392913460). Feel free to add me!

Almost declined you because I didn't see @GAF, but I'll accept you now!

Also, spent 50 free orbs and got a bunch of new 4* and a dupe Apollo. I want Striker pretty bad, but I know he's not a must have. Gonna wait until the next set of monsters rolls in before I spend money.

His ascended version is actually top tier. Its the one you see on the splash page on the top right(pretty much Gogeta).

okay this is really confusing me

on the Final Screen after the battle
do rewards from "Luck Chests" that appear beside the specific player, go to that specific player or everyone?


for example - do the two players here actually share the 3 eggs + stone they got?
 
Just got this game and it is really fun to play. Still don't understand alot of stuff about the game so I'm still a bit confused. I guess the first thing I wanted to know is if it is good to sell them gold turtles for money? I got a crap ton of them but not sure if I should sell or if fusing them with other turtles will make them better?
