can i just connect my phone to my PC and drag the file over to keep it on my computer?

If your phone is rooted you can, otherwise no. I use Helium backup though which does require rooting and works perfectly well.

To answer this, pretty much what I did (keeping in mind I did not have a luci lead which makes life much easier) was:
- Grind tower of giants to around Level 80, this gives you enough of a team cap to make a decent team
- Build up an auto-healer and then on Hera do a healer / GOdin team through legend. It really does not take much of a team to get through it on legend, this will give you a gravity -- do it a couple times until you have at least 2 of them (you can feed one to the other down the road if need be)
- Alternately you can build a cheap zombie team to do the same thing (super easy to make, 1 auto healer + 1 titan as leads -- just pray the lower levels aren't on same turn hits)
- Once you have your double gravities, it opens up some options for you. If you have a Loki/Luci/Batarang batman, you can build a nice all dark grind team that can get you through most of the legend decends

What are you using for a team now? Do you have the people on this board as friends, there are a LOT of really good leaders available from people like DF~ and Intrinsic which I used as a crutch until my team could stand on its own!

About the best leader I have at the moment is an ADK. However, he's not in his ADK form yet. I have to wait until Tuesday. The issue with him is, I don't have a second ADK, nor to I have a CDK. I do have a chaos devil dragon(well, almost), but I need to farm Graviton(I have the starter green dragon, but I heard Graviton is better). Outside of legendary dragons, these are probably the best subs. I started with Ra, but I'm not nearly skilled enough to pull off 5 colors, without getting lucky on drop-downs.

My wife's phone has an Isis, which is what I've been playing. I try running a secondary Isis with her, or a Bastet, but I tend to end up dying, if I don't bring an auto-heal. I'm not sure if it's due to lack of HP, but if shit all attacks in the same round, I tend to get annihilated on anything "expert" level and above.

Whats your team RCV at?

Its very tempting to jump into the harder stuff without a proper team but its just a waste of stamina. Its one of the main reasons I cant stop talking about how awesome Rainbow Keepers/(Dub Mythlits for starters) are.

Tons of HP ATK on Rainbow Keeper and 100+rcv... and myth dublits are at 300 or so rcv. Whereas everything else you can get around that level... requires a shit ton of xp... money... and will still have shit stats!


Right now... the Blue Bird from Angry Birds Collab is a GREAT starter for most people... Match Red Blue Green and get 2.5X dmg. He will also give you 5x poison dmg (like neptune) and his final attack actually breaks 1000atk!

Holy shit is the new Godfest actually live? 4 pulls, 3 basic golems. 1 music dark knight

I pulled a Umi/Yama, Karin (not Kirin, dammit), and Dark Luci. Then 2 mermaids, a golem, and a mystic stone knight.
I've got no interest in the Gods I did pull, but I won't complain too much because at least I pulled Gods.

Rolled Kirin for my friend... and FA Lucifer for myself.

Lame.

Woohoo had 2 rolls on my phone and got an Archangel Lucifer. Also a Haku on my ipad with 3 rolls.

Well ADK is actually pretty solid now especially when fully evolved, you just need to (obviously) get the subs for it.
My ID is 300,565,262, just let me know and I can throw my Zeal up for you (lower level but still full evolve so solid)

A couple others in my friends list that run ADK or CDK are:
- 376,857,241 level 84 CDK is his main lead
- 358,747,209 Level 72 ADK is his main
- 328,853.207 44 CDK
- 306,855,258 level 71 Vritra (also a good ADK off lead)
- 336,340,266 Level 48 ADK
- 313,740,219 Level 82 ADK

The other thing to keep in mind is that Isis/Bast are perfectly good subs even with ADK, you still get your 2.5/3X from ADK and depending on your combines that gets multiplied by Isis and Basts combine bonus. The other thing to think about if you are having issues with getting one shot is you can mix and match. For example, Indra is 2X attack and 2X hps for dragons and gods, using that as an alternate leader will go a long way for your survivability. And as DF~ mentioned, filling in blanks with Keepers and Dubs even if they are not getting the attack multiplier will help your survivability immensely.

Thanks for the friend adds. That should help, a lot. I was lucky enough to pull another mystic stone knight, so that gives me the other ADK sub I needed. Legendary evil dragon is coming up, so I'm going to run that until I get a mystic dark knight, which should finish off my team. If I get lucky, I can also pull a Hellheim, which I'm pretty sure is a better sub than CDD. So, my team is coming together pretty nicely.

I ended up getting a Karin, Thanatos(is he useful?), Tiamat(surprisingly not that great, after being excited initially), and mystic stone knight. My wife pulled a Light Metatron x2, Umi/Yami(she already has one), pierdra, succubus, and mystic dark knight. With her dark pulls, she has a pretty badass team coming together, since she already has an evolved D'Spinas. What's another good leader to use with mono-dark? Luci? Also, I assume that her Light Metatrons are useless, outside of subs in a Valkyrie team? 3.5x is nice, but 3x 100% of the time seems much better.

Tiamat is actually an ok sub because her final evolve can be any sub color so you can use her to make sure you have all 10 colors cap'd off. Just to make sure, you do know you should be using dragons as subs for Ancient Dragon Knight or Chaos Dragon Knight, unless you are meaning another creature with your ADK/CDK acronyms. I ask, because mystic stone and and mystic dark don't benefit from ADK's 3X or CDKs 2X/2X, only dragons do.

As to your wifes team, make sure you add her as a friend as D'Spinas is a dragon, espcially if running your CDK as the two compliment each other well! Main mono black leads are Luci, Loki, and Batman (batarang), shortly Odin (dark) and Hera will be amazing as well.

I agree with your assessment of Light Metatron, but keep in mind that the purpose of sweep teams is to not let opponents get an attack and when fully evolved metatron is 80% or higher and has a 500 pt auto heal with one awaken. Though I would still agree taking a 100% uptime 9x from Valk is better, Metatron is still a viable sweep team leader if you don't have a Valk.

Karin is a great lead for some people. I am not that fond (personally) of the fixed color matchers but lots of people love them. Thanatos, is a bit of a dud unfortunately. Very few scenarios where he would even win out over the easily available Rainbow Knight...

I don't know why I haven't ever tried Dual Robin (I would have failed hard using my Anubis, only hit 10X once, I think) on a non-tricolor before. The first 3 rounds went easily enough, and Athena cost me a single stone when I flubbed my matching. 1 Stone is probably a lot less than I could have done with any other team I could put together. If/when I do it again I'll switch out Dark Ancient for my Dark Hino, as long as I can make up the HP somewhere else.

Super happy to take Athena off my Descend list. Now I need to focus on snagging Zeus and the elemental Heras.

To clarify this,Heliumdoes*NOT*require root, but you have to jump through a couple extra hoops to enable backups on non-rooted devices. There's also a few phones it won't work with, Moto and Sony for starters.

Opps, this is what I meant, Helium does NOT require rooting. It is a great product all around actually.

I got Kirin and a bucket of crap (Succubus #20?, Dark Rider #2, couple elementals.. really a dud all around)

Correct. I was making reference to needing their unevolved forms, in order to evolve them into ADK/CDK. What do you mean by 10 colors? I was under the impression that ADK teams work best as dark/green only.

Trying to get ready for the next Hera (dark) event, and I'm looking for tips on what sort of a team I could possibly have success with. Based on reading some guides, this is what I came up with so far:

Blue Ogre (low-level)
AB Bluebird Blues (high as I can get it)
Empress of Serpents, Echidna (probably around Lv.30)
Harpie Demon (max)
Harpie Demon (max)
Amaterasu Ohkami (I'd be using Aogo's maxed one)

HP would be about 5500, which is low enough for Amaterasu to heal above 70% each turn.

The guide I read had a Lilith in there, but it seems to me that AB Blue is superior in every way, and I would rather not have to farm and evolve/xp a Lilith anyway. Main issues are that I don't even have a Naga yet, let alone a fully evolved Echidna, and that I have no harpies at all. Not entirely clear on whether they have to be light or if I could use other color demons instead, to be quite honest. AFAIK they are just there because they are high ATK/low HP bombers.

I'm open to any suggestions, but I don't have much to work with just yet (PADherder). My only god is Haku, and I'd guess at least 80% of my monster box is evolve materials still. Hera is key to using Haku long-termaccording to what I've read--as is Echidna, another reason I'm hoping this team will be adequate--so I'd really like to get her on the very next descend and not wait another month after that.

Edit: 325,188,272 is me if anyone wants to use my Haku or just wants to add more people. Also, I'm past rank 20 now, if there's anyone here still needing to swap gifts.
