I'm vicious with my +1s... as soon as I have 5, I combine them. As soon as I have 5 +5s, I combine them. Generally I add that +25 to my Luci or whomever (BlOdin/GOdin).

Evolved and waiting:
1 AB Blue
1 Cockatrice
2 King Woodsie
2 wicked ladys
8 pierdrawn
2 King Baddie
2 King Shynee

Unevolved:
1 Super Daruma
1 AB Blue
3 Cockatrice
8 Tofu (think I may say screw these, breath isn't that great)
5 Leek
5 cabbage (think I may say screw these, breath isn't that great)
7 gold dragons (for pengdra)
4 wicked ladys

I need double skillup to feed the evolveds, though I should work on getting the groupings together.

The worst part is the 50stam version of the food dungeon doesn't even drop the evolved version (at least the mystic dragon has a chance too). They drop max level so you just need to feed in the materials (which still sucks).

I still haven't done Keeper of Rainbows yet, will this be sufficient? I'd hate to waste 30 sta if I still don't have the subs or team cost--still only 55 there--to do it.

As long as you heal up to 4452 before the RK hits you, that should work just fine. Back in the day I ran ogre + someones amaterasu. It took forever but it was completely safe.

I save up sets of the same +s

5 +5s -> +25
But that means that at any point in time I could have a mess!

4 +1RCV
4 +1ATK
4 +1HP
4 +5RCV
4 +5ATK
4 +5HP

Yeah... I suppose I could just combine some different ones to clear stuff out... especially since my AO is finished with RCV.

Just not sure on the direction the game is heading to pick my next egg dump... not that they are making much of a difference to me at the moment anyway since on average I don't take more than +25 eggs into any descend... but I take about +300 into farm

Yeah, I'm most concerned about round 3 since I have to heal manually with hearts and getting four knights all hitting 'in 1' is a possibility. As long as I start the round able to match all 3 colors I guess I'd be ok though.

I've been tempted to do it with just the usual double Haku team I use for everything else, but I don't know if I can reliably stall in any of the first three rounds. I can either chip away a trivial amount of hp if I don't match all three colors, or I can blow up everything on the screen if I do. With my crappy subs at least, there's really no middle ground. I was thinking about blowing up the first three in one turn each (stalling anytime possible) and then stalling ~11 turns against KoD/KoL. Going into round 5 with both Haku skills up, I should easily be able to kill KoR in 4 turns or less. If it worked, it would vastly reduce the time to clear it.

Rainbow keeper has a non-trivial number of hps to burn down with a low level group. I am dubious if you could do it with Haku without some good matching (I don't think you have a stall correct?)

Vorph · Dec 10, 2013

Just gave it a shot with SG Haku / Vampire Lord / Dub-Myth / AB Bluebird / Dub-Rubylit and used a friend's SG Haku.

Managed to stall 1 turn on each of the first three rounds, then stalling for 8 against KoD was no problem. Went into KoR, used vamp on turn 1 and then my Haku skill... and dropped him (second turn alone was probably enough by itself too, the one number I saw clearly was 355k from the friend Haku). Not sure why I was expecting this to be much harder than it was, but I'm definitely glad I went for the 5 minute spike instead of the 45 minute grind.

Intrinsic · Dec 10, 2013

lol nice man! Now that you know you can do it, I wouldn't farm for any more than you actually need. Those weekday dungeons are a bear on STA until you have a lot and without 2x drop rate seeing no KoR drop gets really depressing.

I've got about 10 Super Kings from last night and am thinking about feeding them to my Haku. You're already on my list so just post if you need one up. Haven't 100% decided to do it just yet but I'm about 70/30 on it.

Vorph · Dec 10, 2013

Yeah, I'm mostly just clearing as many things as I can for the stones so I can do somewhere between 5 and 8 pulls during the player's choice godfest, depending on how generous GungHo is with their xmas bonus. Guessing it will be like Thanksgiving?

I got KoD and KoR though, so I can't complain either way. One less of each to farm when it's time to evolve Siegfried and Hera...

Intrinsic · Dec 10, 2013

And KoR is a great sub for most teams (25 cost for 3k+ hp and 1k+ atk, no need to feed xp), I always have one favorited so it isn't accidentally used in an evo.

Raign · Dec 10, 2013

Nicely done! As noted, it is a great idea to keep at least one (or even three...) available for your teams because it is REALLY easy to make a solid dark team with them and dubs. Good luck in the good luck in the god fest, let us know how you make out!

Ao- · Dec 10, 2013

This is an asshole thing to say:

Remember back when RK used to have like 4k armor and a million hp? Fuck that noise.

Pepperidge farm remember.

Intrinsic · Dec 10, 2013

Also heads up, there is a Super Gold tonight. Gold xp is usually stupid hard to get. Unfortunately my group is at midnight which means I'll probably miss it.

Brand · Dec 11, 2013

What teams are people considering for the Tamadara farming dungeon? I've been reading up and there seems to be a few viable 0 stone teams.

Awakening Skill List | Puzzle Dragons Database

New active skill changes. Some look interesting and may make Minerva skill ups more worth it. Have an armor break on 3 turn cooldown sounds nice at first read. Ceres change looks nice too in removing all binds. Glad they are changing Alrune and Archangel as well, maybe they'll one day give them a useful evo or busty.

Df~_sl · Dec 12, 2013

With the ancient dragons now having a 500hp heal... 2xLOLCannon on same turn just got easier.

And... there is the upgrade to ripper dragons... another orb change... still worth the box spots and +eggs I have on them? uhh I will keep waiting.

5star conditional dungeon on JP side now... most unevolved gods are 5 star. Ran through the 30 stam and 50 stam versions without blinking... lucky I guess? uhh Not sure if anyone thought it was hard.

Boss drop has SEVEN Awakenings... 5 green dmg reductions 1+green dmg orbs 1 skill cooldown... interesting.

Composter · Dec 12, 2013

38 tries for 1 skillup with drawn joker. 9 tries for 0 skillup on Susano. All on x2 days. Did they reduce skillup likelihood?

Raign · Dec 12, 2013

Had about the same ratio this morning Composter. Between various crap I had collected I had 20 something combines.. one skill up. Statistically speaking, on a double skill up day that just should not happen...

Ishad · Dec 12, 2013

Got 0 skill ups as well. Fuck this.

Intrinsic · Dec 12, 2013

Skill 5 on 14 feeds for Drawn Joker
Helldark Blood Demon is up to Skill 20 lol

No more AB Blues, Leeks, or Stone Gaze birds evolved to try for anything else today.
