Lack of Groove Coaster is really pissing me off. Did they punish them for the early announcement? Running it now would be a good time before the EVA collab starts.

drat is that what he does? Also taking you to 1HP would be useful for HP threshold teams where you healed too much but not enough to get back into the threshold.

Yeah, Hercules is pretty good, him and Echidna the best friends.

Pretty much any combo team that uses a delay can get a ton of mileage out of Hercules. Of course, that means he's mostly useless against bosses with preemptive shields.

Same here, oh wait no actually I died. Oh well, I was just trying to grab a Satan to level up for awakening, not super high priority, but it was an easy way to spend that fresh rank up XP before going to bed. :(

Mark it zero!
So, since trifruits will come before twinlits this time, how would I best go about doing it?

I was thinking about awakening Bastet, and using her + Yomi. But what about the rest of the team? Or maybe something completely different would be easier/more reliable?

If i'd managed to finish the Expert runs I tried along with the others, I would have gotten at least 3 in 6 or 7 runs....still picked up my first one from a try on Int so far though, so not completely unhappy :)

Well, 3-stoned my 1st Satan attempt. 2 to Lilith with consecutive boards missing a Kirin color, 1 to trip synched vamps and a low combo that left 2 alive with just a hair of life.

All-in-all, I'm OK paying 3 stones for Satan, and I can imagine that he'd be fairly easy 0 stone to farm skill ups of dupes in a couple months when my team is actually leveled up. God, I love Kirin, can't with to get the dubliths to evo her.

Also got a bonus Vamp and Lilith. :toot:

EDIT: Satans + was RCV :downs:

EDIT 2: 2 naga and a +egg on my first run of SSP int (for the stone), today is going to be a good PAD day

So, what does 3x chaser invade mean in practical terms? Legend is normally 4%, I think? So is it just 12% or does it end up being better than that?

Sitting at 9 chasers out of 50 legend runs right now with 3x appearance boost.

Before I got 20 chasers after 290 legend runs without 3x. So yeah, quite a significant boost.

So probably around 7% base, ~20% during 3x appearance for legend.

This makes me so very hopeful.

The 2x drop rate doesn't mean anything for this since chasers are a 100% drop regardless, right?

:shepface:God I fucking love Diablo 3 gold, it even paid for this shitty title:shepface:

So this week might be our last shot at Trifruits/Twinlits before they replace the tamadras with babies, no? Definitely going to have to stone the hell out of Trifruits so I can skill my RSonia and stockpile some tamas.

Diagnosis Mpreg posted:

Supposedly SSP has a ~20% chance to drop a naga on the final wave and a 8-10% chance to drop one in the earlier waves. So yeah it will take quite a few runs. With an event starting Monday that includes 2x skillup rate, definitely don't feed any nagas until then.

2 stones on Satan! One non-Kirin board for Lilith, and a fat finger on Vamps, net cost of 1 stone.

Should I try to gimmick Satan using a Robin/Anubis team with various (mostly light) subs? Assuming I can pull off 8+ combos often enough.

Anyone have any idea what the kraken drop rate is? I kinda want one, and I ran satan 3 times this morning for awakening copies and didn't get a kraken to drop. I did get a cerberus though. If the kraken drop rate isn't terrible, I might run it again to try to pick one up.

It's more or less what I just did. I ran it with Robin, 2x Banes, DD Bats and Regulus, with everyone max lvl except for Regulus who's 86. Robin's also max-awokened too for time boost. It was enough to one-shot every floor, though I did get a few lucky cascades on Satan himself.

I'd say probably not re: Twinlits and Trifruit. I don't think we even know yet that the normal versions of these dungeons won't continue to exist in events, and we're still a solid 4-6 weeks behind JP in most things, so we'll probably get another event with them anyway.

Re: SSP, I'd guess your rates are reversed. In all of these survey dungeons--and I've run a loooot of them--the vast majority of my drops come from floors 1-4. I've gone stretches of almost 30 runs before with no boss drop.

Is it worth slapping down a few stones on the Pink REM when it comes around? They look pretty good as heartmakers, or using them and then a heartbreaker to get more orbs for a monocolour team.

Also goddamn you for running Pengdra Villlage and SSP on the same day. :(

Pretty sure the pink REM is a worse use of stones than the regular REM.

And poo poo, now that I have Ronia I guess I have a reason to run Trifruit. Too bad my Satan team is horribly underdeveloped. Looks like it's back to Twinlits for me.

Oh, and Tower of Jewels on the same day. Goddamnit, Gungho!
