Horus could be buffed obliquely by buffing the old heartbreakers with new/better awakenings. The core monsters and stats are pretty good, but their awakenings are boring and weak. And it buffs Horus without doing so directly.

Since F/L Horus is now an attacker, I want him to get 2 two prong awakenings and his active to be revised to add 1.5x atk for attackers for 1 turn.

Idk if this orb enhance awakening buff is really a 4% damage increase per orb per instance of awakening then his leader skill becomes pretty good.

It looks as if a new guerrilla dungeon begins today.

金色の築山(Fr/Wtr/Wd only)
Has anyone heard anything about this? I'm guessing all gold monsters, or a money dungeon maybe?

Maru has an example on her twitter. I don't understand completely but I think if your team has five members with the plus orb ability and you match a combo with a plus orb in it(this is where I'm confused is it 1,2,3?) the attack would increase by 20% for the entire team. 5x4%=20%

A passive 4x Leader Skill? Have we been seeing those lately? Seems like this might be one of the more useful Descends in some time. A 4x passive could be great for farming teams.

My account transferred to IOS from android without issue.

although all the mobs I had Favorited were unselected.

and apparently there is a 20% off on itunes cards floating around. dangerous.
 
I hate skyfalls

I tanked the 22k hit from the light keeper in Tuesday Mythical. Figured I would heal up and finish it off in the next few turns. BAM - skyfall kills the light keeper but only heals me up to 13k so dark keeper's 16k preemptive KOs me.

Two runs later, I don't have enough dark orbs to dish out much damage to the dark keeper on the first 2 turns so I decided to whittle down its health to around the 50% mark and eat the 22k attack before unleashing my actives to finish it off. Third turn, with the keeper at ~85% health, I match 7 combos and BAM - skyfall tacks on an additional 8 hits. Knocks the dark keeper to ~20% health; I die to the 45k rage hit.

Godfest in 2 days





For angry birds and other special dungeons
Do I need to finish the last last stage to get the magic stone reward?
I remember doing some dungeons and getting magic stone without completing the last stage?
How can I tell?

Godfest is supposed to be Archangels-Chinese-Norse.

You have to clear all difficulties to get the stone. We used to have some dungeons divided into 2 categories: normal and technical and those dungeons gave 2 clear stones.

The new guerilla coin dungeon nets about 600,000 coins per run. If you have catwoman that jumps up to at least 1 million. It seems to be just like the weekend dungeon but only five stages and way less exp.
It's quick running though

I imagined they'd make it harder so a Catwoman lead isn't an option anymore!!
Lesser EXP, that's annoying tho =_=

All that time and evo mats wasted evoing a flame chaser to only go 0/5 on Leilan skill ups. Feels bad man.


Skill ups are the only annoyance with this game , it should defo be that if you feed 5 you get at least one skill up.
 
This godfest is ok for me. I'd love a Haku or Meimei, but nothing else is anything I really need. Not sure it's worth my five rolls for the small chance. I may save the stones for DC.

I got my NA account back no questions asked. Still waiting on my JP account.

Nice, congrats. Add me, we fell off each other's friend list. 391,130,292

Anyone else that doesn't have me either, feel free to add. i've got some open spots.

Since F/L Horus is now an attacker, I want him to get 2 two prong awakenings and his active to be revised to add 1.5x atk for attackers for 1 turn.

two prong is difficult on multi color match teams. I'd like an improvement to his active skill or better/more awakenings. I feel like i've got the perfect Horus team these days since picking up Zhuge Liang. Running Echidna, Hera-Is, ZL, Max Skilled Yomi. I'm working on getting Hera to max skill with all my stamina these days. Once that's completed I'm looking at turn 13 Gravity and change the world, can pretty much take on any dungeon with that.

Finished the No Leader Skill technical dungeon. The next one is no wood orbs, but wood element cards only? Who came up with this...

Are these dungeons worth going through? I'm thinking there's one of these for each element; and I do not have teams for Green, Blue or Yellow. Could make something for Dark, and Fire constitutes all my primary teams.

But seriously, what's the point? Just the "challenge" of it?

They are not that difficult, bring orb changers and/or monsters with secondary colors.

Well, my problem is that I don't really have those for anything but my Fire team. I got luckhy with the God rolls and got a bunch of Fire gods. I have a couple of gods scattered around the other elements, but really only Dark and Fire are what I've built up.

Just annoying to hit a break point due to elemental focus.

still friended (´・ω・`)

Also your predicament is exactly what those conditional technicals are supposed to test. There are other ways of clearing floors, like using nukes, poison, or attacking purely with subattributes. If you've noticed the monsters in those dungeons don't actually have much HP or hit that hard, and there's a reason for that.

The only things that hit hard there are the divine masks, don't let 2 hit you on the same turn.
 
Ancient masks defeated! Got my blue mask so I'll be all ready to uvo U&Y when that happens. Any word on whether that will be included in this weekends update? I read that it might just be for daylight savings.

Hmm I got 5 awakenings on my current Kirin team. More if I switch Light Zhuge for DQXQ.

I saw some threads on reddit as well, looks really strong. Is this live on JP only or US too?
 
Ok, is the new mobile version of PDX completely broken? I can't get it to work at all.

Also, why did we need a mobile version? the full desktop site was very functional and fast even on mobile.

In other news, I might actually evolve Marine Rider (first REM pull when I started last year)...

I have about a half-dozen monsters that need dragon fruit to evolve, including my new dragon knight. Blew through a whole bar of stamina this morning; zero dragon fruits.

Be prepared to get 2 every run, just after you evolved your last monster that needed them! :D

I don't like the mobile version, there is a link to switch to the desktop version so I did.

iOS Safari wasn't even fully loading the mobile site for me to disable it. In general I am not a fan of mobile websites, find them very frustrating to use.

I did end up evolving Marine Rider, Don't have a second rainbow keeper, so I can't ultimate evolve him today.

Oh well, next up is Goddess descended, need that last fire spirit stone for Dancing Hera-Ur.

no reason to introduce the 5 minute stamina to the united states yet, the competition is not viable - MS is close.

they are still filtering the whales here and they will only drop the 5 min stamina when we stop throwing money at them.

(I stopped, because I got pretty much everything I wanted and the game is getting boring- but don't think for a second that they will change stamina in the US until they have to because of competition)

That's a very cynically view. Thus far, the US version has matched everything the JP version does, sans the regional exclusive dungeons. No reason to think this won't be the case.
 
Did BraFro go to 3min in the US yet? I keep seeing distasteful ads for it on Twitter and other sites. Dunno if it's even that popular compared to PAD here.
