Again, you are just describing re-rolling...

When I farm for a healer bitch I am playing the game, with the account I want to play, and earning exp and items on the account I want to play. When I make multiple extraneous accounts I'm rerolling.

The mechanic is in the game... become friends with explorers and build relationships with the lower level people providing them with the helpers they want and need refreshing when they do to "farm" reputation for the chance of them using their present on you... Is that farming? Its playing the game... on the account that you want to play on to get a chance at the reward that you want...

What about playing a collaboration game on JP side? I had to play a couple games of taiko drummer to get evo materials in PAD... that wasnt farming that was rerolling?

Sort of sad that it's just blue-themes for the rare machine, but fuck it saves me some stones (that I'm now going to burn on stamina instead). I did 8 pulls on the PAL: 2 green rippers (one in the second form too), and a dub-saphlit were the only things worth mentioning.

At least double king rate, amirite?!

A couple things 1) Sorrow, last night snuck away from me, but I will send it to you ASAP when I get home this afternoon. I also found an Indra account.

2) Rerolling IS farming. Doing ANY repetitive task over and over for expected results is farming. Whether that is abusing game mechanics for the chance of a pull or matching gems for the chance of a drop, the meta idea is still the same. Stop arguing over semantics when there is plenty of valid discussion about actual gaming to be had.

Hell Queen Persephone now after some okay luck in the Friday dungeon. Thanks for the free stones that I'm not gonna spend pulling the rare machine and can instead spend refilling my stamina to chain run that bitch.

I'll have a dark/light Hades as soon as the next DubMyth drops too.

Any chance of a godfest during water week? I don't know if it is worth waiting or not as my last two pulls during a god fest were trash.

They have definitely interrupted other promotions to put in a godfest before. I really want Neptune & Viper Orochi, but I'm not sure that means I should actually pull during this event, cuz I'm sure I'd get a fairlio.

I dont really know where to go with this game right now... until I find a dungeon that I cannot cheese with double anubis and good matching skills... What team is there to aspire to? I can think of many different setups that they could use to stop my anubis... but then I can think of counters to that as well...
A boss that deals X amount of damage before your turn requiring 4x HP, or 2x hp + resist... Elemental of his color activated at the end of the previous round...

HP above 10million (current legendary/mythical has 3-4m)? A 10+combo deals approximately 2.5m per sub with just one combo of their color. That dungeon would also bore anyone else to tears or be undo-able for anyone NOT running double anubis.

Armor above 10million? I suppose that would require a shiva sub... or the void armor ability will have to spread to more places to be doable... or make due with 75% armor break but what else would you pair with 10m armor that would still pose a challenge yet be doable?

My current Double Anubis setup is this:
Anubis + 3 Rainbow Keeper + Echidna + Anubis
Depending on Friends Anubis, this puts me close to 14k HP.

Tricolor Anubis
Anubis Red Blue Green Rippers + Utility Sub Anubis
Because its so much easier to get 10X on tricolor (I am currently getting 80%+ when not focusing on 5matching). Change your Rippers for high atk/utility for whatever dungeon you are running. There is always room for an Echidna

Where does the game go from here?

GOdin and Zombie teams gave rise to most bosses having multiple hit skills AND teams that attack before your turn starts (not sure if thats on US yet).

Within the confines of the current game... what else can they introduce? Autoheal + Resist was fine for a while... which gave way to double HP teams... mudflation will go to... resist + HP leads.

Its already gotten to the point in the game where delay is so much more useful and will continue to get stronger. To counter delay they have the "shield" mechanic.

Conditional Dungeons like no leader just shifted focus to skill usage... Rainbow/Color Requirements were a big change from the monocolor standard, but Egypt gods already started that change anyway.

The new mechanic on the collab dungeon where if you kill one the other goes berserk is interesting... which requires controlled steady damage. Maybe a dungeon that requires specific damage amounts... more reactive bosses... (dont deal huge dmg during thorns buff etc)

Maybe Dungeons where you only get X amount of turns for the entire dungeon rather than just a crazy boss that powerups and OHKOs you...

So where else do you guys see the game going?

Honestly if you can consistently hit double anubis 100X strikes...I think you're done. You've won the game, I don't think that anything new will challenge you that would not be impossible for anyone else. Nothing else even comes CLOSE to 100X, think about it. The next highest is what, Ra? Horus? If anything ever required anything close to 100X, it would literally obsolete 99% of the game, and I don't see that happening.

Legend Whiskey Dragons (red) has 10m hp... I guess tricolor makes that easier. Now you're just up to farming to make try out other teams.


As far as the godfest, they did it during one of the previous ones. Though it was both Godfest AND water during that timeframe, so you ended up having a good chance at both of those (and I still pulled three cupids during it, fucking TrollHo).

I sort of want to try a pull to get Orochi or Neptune, though I'll hold because I'll end up with Cupids/Genies.

For people experienced with multi accounts by swapping out the data048.bin, does anyone know how to get your time schedule back in sync? I'm just getting the error 8 when entering dragon dungeons now because they don't appear on the right schedule. Is there a particular file I can delete to get it synced back up?

LOL apparently red whiskey wheat ancient dragon has 10m HP... I think I one shotted him because I barely remember even running it... That team makeup was 3 Ice subs, (one dual color with green) Double anubis and Echidna.

Unless they start releasing other ways of either farming stones or pets... there will be nothing for me... the challenge of making a hero and 2 heros team was fun! Running 2 heros on JP by accident with my 16x horus team was also funny (I thought it was the super king metal dungeon until the last round).

I am not sure what I want on my main US account now... I wonder what the satan dungeon will be like...

Ice Hera looks simple enough on regular difficulty... though I imagine ice coffin would lead to one stone if I cannot one shot her...

If you start using multiple accounts frequently, I find it better to stop using the data048 method and start using the Documents folder method instead. This allows you to pause and resume inside dungeons as well AND removes that dungeon schedule bug.

Light/Dark Hades done.

So I'm looking thru my box to see if I can get rid of useless dublits that are taking up space, and I come across Fafnir...

I could evolve him into Green/Dark Fafnir, which would be 2x attack for Green/Dark. This would open up a lot of options for my dark team...like ADK, Green Rippers, etc.

What do you guys think? Worth getting him done today too?

Not worth it... ADK is stronger than whatever green black combo you could put up... having him fill a niche in a rainbow team or conditional dungeon would be one thing... but as a leader, its not worth the mats unless you have NOTHING else...

Sure, but he also would be a decent sub on an ADK team too, now with what, 30% more attackerdom?

Doing it because he'll do more damage on my farm team now, and might actually be worth his spot, since his nuke sure as fuck ain't.

that 30% also gets the 2.5x modified, so it's still only 30% of what his green damage is, it's still a nice shooter. You can use him for the technical "All wood monsters, no wood orbs" dungeons.

That's a good enough reason in my book. Already got a couple purple dub lits, just need one more and a dub myth, that ain't that big of a commitment, and it ain't like I'm using the stamina for some pressing shit anyway
