Oh shit, and I just found a salamander secret dungeon as I was typing, if anyone gives a shit. VvoidRR in-game if you want it.
Between trying to do this at work without people seeing and my team still sort of sucking, I wasn't able to get all 20 pieces I needed in the time limit, which really bummed me out...until I saw that aevry found the exact same one with 50 minutes left! Yay!!

EDIT: Oh god dammit, I didn't realize it would be a 2*

(yes, I see now where it clearly shows me that fact). I just need one more 3* to evolve the awakened one I pulled. Not the ultimate best card I know, but still worth having. Didn't realize I'd get a damn 2*, although it makes sense now that I think about it, otherwise it wouldn't be grindy enough.

I'm sure this has been stated already, but the auto-run feature is the best fucking invention ever. Once I found the option to auto-kill the boss too...I came.
Yeah have to say this is pretty kickass. My wife makes fun of me for "playing two games at once" since I'll auto combat a bunch on this game while playing MWO. Just wish the AI was a tad smarter, like taking out forcefield towers instead of attacking the protected boss endlessly. On the other hand, I find auto'ing a pvp fight once it ends up windbear vs windbear usually is good, since the AI knows exactly when to Clean Shot (do it too early and you almost guarantee a loss).

Hah, so I've only been playing this for a little over a day, but I only just now realized that you don't have to have the same creature to evolve. I was thinking that the only way I could get a 4* Water Warbear, for example, was to have 3 other Warbears.

Made the game take on an entirely new aspect now that I discovered my mistake. At least I learned that you want to Awaken them prior to evolving if at all possible though, so I avoided that headache. Now I'm learning the joy of farming for the fucking essences! Pretty tempted to spend the money if that essence pack pops up again though, not gonna lie.

Hrm? It should take the same amount of resources to awaken a 3* creature as its 4* version.

The auto-battle feature is seriously driving me away from Puzzles and Dragons. Being forced to actually mindlessly farm plus eggs, rather than just firing up auto-battle while farming? Yeah, Summoner War has me spoiled to the point where I go back to P&D, do one run of a T5 dungeon, and quit.

Yeah it does.

The only reason to wait on awakening is if you want to level up the other skills before the awakening one. Since the skill leveled up is random.

edit: Got my mystic scroll for day 5 of the daily event thing. Pulled an awakened wind salamander. Are you fucking kidding me? Most useless mystic scroll yet=P

Oh, I guess that's another thing I didn't realize. I looked at my 4* Sylph and saw it took a bunch of High essences, which I can't get yet, and assumed it was because it was 4*, but maybe that's because the Sylph doesn't come in a 3* version perhaps (I'm assuming it doesn't, never saw one)?

If I can evolve this shit that will free up a ton of space for me. Thanks!

Aye everything has a "natural" * rank, 1-5, nothing comes auto rank 6 as far as I know. You will sometimes get a 2* version of a 3* mob, but yeah. I find this series of posts quite usefulhttp://forum.com2us.com/forum/main-f...build-includedAlso keep in mind you can use your silver 2* mobs to evolve gold star mobs as well - only the *'s matter, not the color.

Started playing this as well and going to add folks from the list. IGN's Koushirou. Also, the auto-play is the best feature ever, holy shit.

That tier list is ok but man, they are way too nice. It seems like "A" is the default, and you have to have some serious flaws to get anything below that. It would be more useful if it had more tiers, like an average unit is C. Instead, C is basically garbage. When stuff like elementals are getting A's, something is wrong with your tier list.

Agreed, but I also think that inflation inclines you to underestimate some of the okay-but-not-great-according-to-this-metric that "only" score an A-. Case in point: Fire Amazon. I didn't find anything better until Fire Inugami.

I hear you Thengel, but I think it's a great place to start from, as opposed to "should I sac a bunch of stuff and skill this up and awaken it to see if it's any good". I love my 3 Hellhounds (Fire, Water, Wind) and wouldn't give them up for anything, even though that list doesn't value them nearly as much as I do /shrug

Popped my 4th 11 scroll pack plus some random ones I bought - the cream of the crop were an awakened Fire Harpu, an awakened Water Harpu, an awakened Wind Fairy, and an awakened Water Pixie. Try super hard not to be jealous, guys, as hard as that may be.

I've gotten more mileage from popping extra wishes than opening mystic scrolls from saving crystals. I've net around 700k mana crystals, two monster summons (which were crap, but you can get ANYTHING as opposed to just jank 3*) 1 nice 6* rune and tons of energy.

Haha I might say fuck it and see what happens. When I started this game I popped 3 wishes just to see how the rng worked, and got 15 crystals all 3x so, almost a wash really.

Yea but don't think it's actually random, I've popped about 400 crystals or so, and it's definitely RNG just like anything else - like 40% chance to hit 5000 crystals, 30% for the 10/15 crystals, 20% for uncommon scroll/energy/arena wings and less than 5% or some such for the rune/monster/50k/100k/150k crystal thing.
