Dunno much about FA Luci Im afraid. I went and did some reading on the PAD Forums today for the first time in weeks and before any of you invest heavily into a Yomi Dragon you guys should read what those folks are talking about recently. It looks as if a new set of MP monsters are being added (first one is in as of today, the red one) which brings bigger damage to the table. The consensus on the forums there is while Yomi Dragon is still strong, the meta has shifted away from him. Before you sink all your MP and time into it, make sure you wouldnt be better off with some of the new stuff that's incoming.
I have had one for a while, he was my last mp dragon purchase about 2 months ago. I was just looking to try something else to clear Arena because while I like Ra dragon I am getting a bit bored with the team. I don't have the subs to support the new red MP monster that got release today. At least not yet... no Uriel and only 1 Gradius

What are the ideal subs? I mean, you need red healers to really deal damage, right?

The idea subs I have heard tossed around are Gradius(uvoed gains healer sub type) and Uriel. I have seen teams on the FB group that are 2 of her, Uriel, Uriel, Gradius... or something along those lines. Really you want red healer heart makers.

Gadius and Uriel are pretty much mandatory. The absolute best team setup, as I see people refer to it, is 3 of the MP chick, Gadius and Uriel. Pricey as hell to make happen.This threadhas some good discussion on the team, subs, and stuff. The team is very susceptible to binds which is where Gadius and his bind clear awakenings come in (hes unbindable too).

Ive had a few Gadius and Uriels in the past but in my hunt for MP while working on other teams they got fed to the woodchipper, much like the Luci I had ages ago. Id like to give the red MP chick a whirl but without those two there's no point in dropping the points, not to mention more cash on godfests hoping to pull em.

Sitting on 450k MP, 2 gadius but no Uriel or mitsuki. I know Ive sold plenty of Mitsuki but idk if I ever had Uriel. I woulda bought 1 and maybe tried to get a 2nd one if I woulda ripped a Uriel this fest but whatev

I just accidentally cleared true endless screwing around with a friends Mei and my Gadius team. Most notable difference from my typical AShiva or ROden friend is the RVC topping me off from a few -10% hits. I run Gadius, Uriel, Urd, Sanada, and Yamato so only half the team was actual healers, but Yamato and Sanada are duel fire/heart generators with pretty quick actives. I have a second Uriel I could level if I really want to push this. Mei was doing 4mil damage with a full activation.

On a side note, I really hate that they found a way for me to keep the godfest trash by giving them tons of +'s and in the process killing my MPs.

Either my luck is horrible or the rates of the godfest drops are crazy bad. Just gave it one more shot to roll some of that stuff and only one of six rolls came from the godfest... Guess Im going Mei-less for now.

Got a shiva earlier. I'll probably get one more pull in tomorrow. Don't mind either shiva or yomi, I'll auvo them both this week I just really don't have a team for either yet. Really wanted susano so I could kick kushi off my ABASTET team :/. Running Abastet, perseus, gabriel, kushi, and vishnu. I swap in A Ceres if I need bind clear. My box has so many crazy good units but no real teams

I read that the more 6star GFEs that are voted in, the more likely you are to roll non featured 5 stars. I got a few things I really wanted but nothing huge so cant complain, namely Lkali on the main and skuld on the alt. I wanted to start tackling machine zeus but Im not even sure if I have the subs to make that all that good since I dont have ilm. I know sephi is good on that dungeon but idk if I have the subs for him either. Also cant decide on if I should get a charite or nepdra or yomigon on the alt wythink?

I think LKali is getting the same Multiplier type that A.Kirin has, but I might be wrong on that (something about Ronia getting them too?).

I rolled a genie that's +50rcv... so I'm done rolling.

She's utterly broken if you play the 3 Mei team setup. Ive seen screens and videos of damage numbers over 15million foreachMei on the team. It's staggering to me how monsters like this go live. The other three Mp monsters in the set with Mei arent even close to her strength or capabilities.

Supposedly the blue guy, You Yu (I think is his translated name) has big damage numbers too but his come from TPA but isnt quite up there with Mei. Same with the light guy who comes across as almost a glass cannon. The light dude has an even higher damage multiplier than Mei, it requires 9 or 10 connected light orbs to reach but has zero recovery bonus or boosts. The dark one is hamstrung by a lack of quality subs. I mean really, how many dark/balance monsters are out there...

Mei is just on an entirely different level than the rest of the stuff in the game. Granted the barrier for entry is pretty high with the specific subs and MP you gotta spend, but she will flat break the game. I didwaymore pulls in this PCGF than Ill ever admit to trying for that Gadius and Uriel and the vast majority was gala stuff or things not even in the godfest. I mean seriously, during the PCGF you shouldneverpull a goddamn fruit dragon. I have the stuff I think to maybe run the new light MP guy when he pops up but that's debatable still.

I wonder how she stacks up against the new uvo for Bastet. Just watched a video of Reco clearing Arena 1 with it, you can get her multiplier up to x144 AND then you combine her active with halving armor and turning everyone's attacks into multi attacks

Dunno, I hadnt looked at the new Bastet until now but after doing so Mei will still be far more popular I think. Im sure the same niche crowd that loved Anubis may go nuts for her but for the average player, a huge multiplier that's dependent on 10 friggin combos likely wont fly. Mei can do huge damage with far less work and has a bit more utility. Green teams always seem to have recovery issues, bind and skill bind issues that will still likely be a problem. I could be totally wrong of course and maybe the general playerbase isnt as lazy as I am, ten combos is a lot of work :p

10 combos is only really consistently doable on color limited or 7x6 boards. 6x5 boards without color limitation is a lot of praying for skyfalls. I ran D/L Anubis for a loooooong time.

I don't think you need to get to 10 combos to really make that team work. Watching the video I did clearing arena 1 he rarely got to 10, and he almost never got 3 wood combos.

Kind of pissed I already max skilled my bastet :/.

6 combos with 3x wood is easily doable and where a bastet maxes out. Combos 7-10 aren't exactly uncommon so she'll be a straight upgrade. Kind of meh without good green orb changers I guess but still an upgrade.

Betting 10 dollars right now that this week with the free pulls I snag either a Uriel or Gadius after dropping a couple dozen stones trying to roll one in the PCGF. Also, before anyone gets too upset at having to re-Uevo Bastet, check out the Awoken Liu Bei, he's got potential as a solid green lead too. Not quite as high of a damage multipler as the new Bastet but he's got some utility she lacks.
