Well on the plus side Valk's stats hardly change as you level her.

70 is fine.

Seriously, check out PDX and compare level 1 vs 99 stats. It's pretty sad how shitty the healers stat growth is.

I kind of want a valk to finish off my heart breakers but the thought of trying to level another light monster without using stones makes we want to stab myself
I'm leveling my Gigas now... and holy fuck does it suck.

On another note, I'm pretty sure 2x skill up is active now, or I'm just getting some absurd luck.

2 poporings to my 30 highlander, triumph but no skill ups. 3 more fed later and 2 skill ups.
2 big woodsies to my Mastering and a skill up
5 big flamies to my gigas and a skill up (max)
3 marins to my Sigfriend and a skill up (max)

Now to get some more big baddies from this and some more drops for the vamp/valk respectively.

I'm just holding on to everything until tomorrow, but expecting the same results (a lot of nothing

). Everything is pretty close to max skill anyways from last time, just need those last few ticks.

More interested in metals to go 2x King again, 2nd Valk for my Healer team, and maybe skilling up Hera-Is.4

I would not bother getting her above lvl 30 and then bustying her to Light/Green

265,165 for 1-50 Valk
1,663,863 for 1-70 Greater Valk
190,542 for 1-30 Warrior Rose

That gets you a VERY nice leader/sub. But I agree wholeheartedly, no reason levelling a light monster should be so fucking terrible.

I'm going to laugh and laugh when Athena is released and blue Odin gets a buff to 3.5x attack to Gods.

Calling it here first~

Edit: Ohhh today is my 200 day bonus. Extra 10 stones.

Does mastering still have the ability to lower cooldown of abilities and trigger autohealers/kagutsuchi? If the orb refresh results in a match?

Never mind, just did my own testing, yes it does... Seems like it'd be extremely powerful to have 2 or even 3 of them on any team relying on healing every single turn to survive.

Resist Leader 1
Mastering
Mastering
Echidna (save for emergencies)
Siren
Resist leader 2.

Either that or it'd work good for single resist/auto healing or Odin/Siren (maybe add a mastering instead of a second siren)

You would have to get the Masterings skill high enough to be useful... and MORE useful than... oh lets say... 50% reduced dmg from a golem or rainbow keeper... for 3 turns at 15turn cooldown...

I haven't seen one in 5 expert runs but I know it drops there since it did in Sorrows screenshot. Not sure about Master.

So what is the must do during this next week, What poring drops should I save in my box, if I don't have the orb changes for the drop should I feed them to something specific, level them, or some other answer. The 2x should start tonight right? So I can feed these red knights and free up box space?

Almost all the answers there are dependent on your teams and where you're at in the game. But yes to the 2x and feed MFKs tomorrow.

Personally, I'd recommend prioritizing as follows:

1) Any descend you can reasonably low-stone run that you need the drop from
1a) Porings or MFKs on 2x drops
3) Poring expert if you need skillups for any of the heartbreakers
4) Super dragons/Pengdras/Jewels of colors you particularly need
5) MFK dungeon (move to 2 if you frequently run mono-red and haven't maxed one)

But then, that's just my take. Your results may vary. Skill-ups virtually guaranteed to result in dissapointment and regret. GungHo personally hates you, etc., etc.

Also, if you have no poison, get and keep a Ghostring. If you run Wed/Fri dungeon, you may want a couple more just to no-brainer runs in there. For other Porings, I'd personally just fuse for the XP. You can't level them other than Mastering, which I farmed one of and am working on skilling but it's more for novelty than awesomeness. I don't know that I'd sub them in as 11 turn low stat subs, Two Heroes wasn't really that brutal to run. Maybe keep a Drops because Valk is harder? I did, but never used it.

Well, as an example, at Hera-is, I needed to do a 3 heaet orb plus 1 other combo after every normal round, or 5+ hearts in about 4 combos after every special attack (about 66% of the time). If I ran out of heart orbs on any turn, I was pretty much guaranteed to die. In such a situation, my golem didn't really help all that much, it kept me alive when 1 leader got bound, but if she bound both leaders it was game over regardless. In such a situation, potential to create heart orbs (and the potential to reduce siren cooldown by 1) in comparison, mastering seems a much more powerful sub... I couldn't use my (maxed) megalodon or a 2nd siren , the hp wasn't high enough and I woulda required at least 6 stones getting past the guy that hits hard every other round, and while I do have Parvati, she's only at rank 1. (And unevolved)

in my opinion, it is worth making the box space to save up Drops (light heartbreaker), Poporing (green heartbreaker), and Marin (Blue Heartbreaker).

We JUST had the green and blue heartbreaker dungeon, so probably won't see it again for a few months, but it is a guaranteed drop, and 1 of the easiest descended dungeons to clear. Valkyrie is one of the harder descended dungeons, so you can maybe skip collecting Drops. But if you think you would want a healer team or a light team (ie:you're crazy) go ahead.

Big Flamie, save until you farm up a Titan(red heartbreaker), but low priority because he's already easily skilled up... Woodsie (make a mastering and skill it up with the woodsies) and Bubbly low priority as well because you can get those skills normally often.

Ghostring is possibly worth saving a few of so you can run multiple poisoners for jewel dragons/mask dungeons/ sprite dungeons.

Angeling showed up on Expert for me. Have had 6 runs so far.

As for what to do this week...
--Stam Priority List---
1. Run Pengdra Village with all the stam you have while its up.

2. If you can clear Super Jewel Dragons... run them.

Run the double king rate jewel dragons for color of choice

3. If you have orb changers.... farm poring tower until you have no stam left. If you do not have orb changers... and wednesday friday dungeons still give you some trouble, farm 4 ghostrings. Keep any "drops" "popring" "marin" in your box in case you get an orb changer in the near future.
Expert or Master? If you are at all interested in Evoing up Blobs or Skilling: Titan/Vampire/Angelion/Mastering... run Expert. If you want to get a Mastering, wait till double drop rate and run Master until you have 2 Porings.

4. Any descend you think you can clear for the first time for less than 5 stones. Pickup a Goemon/Valk/Hera/Zeus if you can. Then skill up your new Valk in Poring tower!

5. If you might need rainbow keepers... tuesday during double drop would be a great day to get yourself some... Do not bother with mystic masks or myth dublits on wed or friday for this week though!

That is my advice for most everyone

Astaroth and Amon are about the only two that interest me, other than Blue Odin. May do a couple of rolls just in case it is my lucky day, but otherwise yeah. Stones going to 2x King and Poring.

I really want an astaroth. The idea of a 4/0/4 team without dependency on gods is just money.
