Considering Verche is part of the generic Kirin team he seems like the obvious choice. I need to pick up a Keeper Tuesday to finish Uvoing mine.

Got my Hera-Is to 50, but my lack of dublits(1 saved for Verche) is killing me. Once I get her done I have the full generic Kirin team(Hera-Is, Valk, Verche, Echidna), though Hera-Is needs some skill ups.

I'm in the same problem... max AO, 70 Valk, 74 Athena, 32 Venus, 70 Zeus, 73 busty verche, 38 angelion, 94 kirin, 2x apollo 4/24, various dragons, healer girl, 30 indra, 30 angel.

No idea where to go (I'm lying, I brought Verche from 55 to 73 and Kirin from 72 to 94).


Honestly, for my Kirin team it's heart breakers and Verche. I fear being orb-trolled, so I bring converters unless there's no hearts (Helllllo Satan!). Then it's Verche and athena and sig and bastet or D/L Yomi.

You guys are so good to me. First Kings on Verche got a super to max him

okay so got him double evo'd. Guess I'll put a few more levels in him and then hit up my Kirin to 50 or what I can get. Then just do the 50, 60, 70, etc thing with them

man, did master level red pirate with my 9x devil team... only 5 rounds so I couldn't stall for King Baddie to get up, got slaughtered on the first hit. Good thing is you have 2 rounds to kill (at least, I did): First round was shield, second round was 3x attack, 3rd round was 30k hit. That might be different and the "before round starts" was the shield (so you only get 2 rounds of hits).


Also, Pendgra village today, so hit it up for gold pengdra to use your gold dragons!

Is Legend or Master better for farming the skill ups? With 130 STA I can sort of run 3x Master without waste... not that there'll really be any waste, I can run two Legend just as easily and wait for 20 STA to regen.

Invade percentage for Chase is much higher in Legend than Master, I don't know about the ninja skillup (I don't have a ninja, so I don't really care though).

Ultimate evos for Egyptian gods, healer girls, and rippers are allegedly live now. That includes things like Echidna and Anubis which weren't part of the first update we never got.

Can't test myself because of fucking dubs yet again but many people have confirmed it's really live this time.

As for pirates, the dungeon seems to be a big waste of sta unless you're absolutely deadset on skilling up Chiyome. Too few rounds, too few pirates, and even when one shows up it's still only 1 in X to get the drop.

Chasers are probably about 5-6% invade, which works out to 18-22% for four potential rounds.

My gut feeling says you want to do master for pirates and legend for chasers, but I have nothing to back that up with.

Legend is surprisingly rough with a burst team. Three rounds until you get one-shotted and even at 16x on all 3 you won't get him down. Had to switch to luci team for that stone. It's a good source of marine goblins if anyone out there still hasn't max'd out their Sirens but aside from that it is strictly a 'run once and never again' sort of dungeon imo.

Edit: It is indeed live. Just did my horus

One of those cases where the videos from JP side make it seem way easier because they have so many Tamadras. Every video features a team with multiple skill cooldown awakens.

Yeah.. you could theoretically do something like a burst team with a bunch of gravity subs and just stall a lot on the early phases.. but I didn't read up on it first so just went in with my normal Bast / Valk/ BOdin / Orochi / Gigas / Bast set up. Shield goes up as a pre-emptive so the stall was useless. Rather than rejig the team and mess with artificial stalling I just switched to my grind team. It was pretty easy with that, just have a heart-maker since he is obtuse about turning the board red.

Based on the Facebook post about the evos, I would expect to see tri-fruit and twinlit weekly dungeons start up this week on Wednesday and Friday respectively. Doubt we'll see the new added on the old dungeons yet though.

I don't think I'm going to mess with master or legend until it's 2X drop, but when I do I'll use Kirin/Kirin with 4 orb changers. Fuck stalling 30 turns for real gravity. 3 turns for 1.6 million at 25x shouldn't be a problem.

Honestly, getting kirin's up might not even be easy. You only have 4 rounds. On the other hand, you can match a few and stall easier with kirin than I can with 9x devil.

Yeah, I considered that Kirin/Kirin may be a problem because I can't just leave everything alive while I stall, I can't kill anything with 1x combos, and I can't NOT kill everything with a 25x. Hooray.

So maybe I'll just do R/R Horus / Kirin. 4x combos can snipe the trash easily enough, assuming skyfalls don't come shit on my parade like usual. Would leave me with 3 turns to do 2M at 20-22.5x, I think I can do it.

My Kirin team can't even take 1 boss hit, and he pre-shields so you won't get him menaced either. Even hitting 3 Kirin combos I might not take down 2.55 million with nothing else.

Luci it is. He's so fuckin' boring, but man it's nice to have that option.

No idea why it double posted.

Anyways, PDX is showing rares in the PAL machine in 2 days, should indicate an event. Of course no official word because fuck NA.

This is the closest they've come to giving actual Valentine's day info: "Some Ultimate Evolutions use either a Twinlit or a Trifruit Evo Material! Make sure to run their dungeons this event!" (From the FB post announcing the ultimates were live.)

Wed. would make sense, since that's where Tri-fruits will be on the weekly schedule. Assuming, of course, that we're getting them weekly, and not just drip-fed to us like twinlits have been so far.

As for Kirin vs. red pirate dude, I was counting on mini-gravities. Though as Ao- pointed out, that's not really practical so I guess it will be just one mini-gravity and 2M left to take down in 3 rounds at 20-22.5x. Getting the full 4.5x out of R/R Horus isn't something I'd count on, when it's hard enough just to do three straight Kirin combos even with orb changers. I figure I'll be using Horus / Valk / Sieg / Cu Chu / Gigas / Kirin.

I don't really care anymore anyway. The idea of max-skilling Chiyome was cool, until I read that getting pirates is just as hard as getting chasers. So it's just a stone now.

Pirate rarity should be about the same as getting knights etc from their specific dungeon during waves and not from the boss wave. So like....15-20%?

40-50 pirates to max her, so that's 200-333 runs at 40 sta (legend because the pirate rarity should be the same as master, or at least close enough that it's not worth the 10 extra sta, except that on master you get more chaser invades which completely replace the wave). And even legend isn't exactly a cakewalk.

Pass. I won't put that much effort into getting chasers for Haku when dark pirate rolls around, let alone for Chiyome on the mono-red team I don't even use.


Thinking about Anubis some more now that his ultimates are live: seems like he'll be the easiest way to clear score attack modes in 6.4 with a score sufficient to get the tamadra prize. Sure, he's 7*, but use 4* subs and you'll still be lower rank than just about any other team. Then take into account that the other part of the final score comes from average combo length. LOL...

Man, I'm going to be really disappointed when the godfest comes and goes and I get trolled with no Anubis.
