I started playing this a few days ago, not realising how popular it was, so was surprised to find a giant thread about it. Since I wasn't too far in, I decided to restart and start rerolling for something decent, but it's been ages and no luck yet-got one God so far, but it was just an Amateratsu. Mostly the machine has been spitting out Beast Riders. I'd have just stuck with Amateratsu if the OP/guide wasn't so insistent that it will save so much grinding later.

I first started during a ninja/rider fest, and went through the same thing. After 2 days I gave up and waited for the fest to end before continuing to reroll.

Should be a godfest coming up, and some goons give away good starter accounts (though I think they're out of the best ones at the moment).

It's the reason Square Enix and Blizzard are now concentrating on this market.

Wait for one of the two guys who give away accounts to post, they'll undoubtly have something better.

Also, rerolling over and over right now is a waste as it's not a Godfest. You should only reroll during Godfest.

Does that look like a decent Zeus team? I desperately need Devlits for Shiva so my Ronia team can breeze through everything ever.

Should be doable, although you might have better luck swapping the Echidna for Hera-Ur. That should let you one-shot Zeus.

DQXQ is burstier and easier to activate, but if you Ult Horus and can reliably get his 25X he's a hell of a lot more sustainable.

Dqxq is generally better than FL Horus barring very specific all-rem setups and even then it is debatable. I'd write a wall on why buy I only have phone access for another day or two.

There's an event coming up, which you can find out on Facebook or puzzledragonx.com, and an event means there will be a godfest. Now is currently the worst time to roll an account, since instead of one color, ninjas and riders have increased probability of dropping. If you even just wait until tomorrow, you may have better luck and can save up some stones for the godfest.

Quick question: For the second leader, do the people want max skill best Isis, or 10-turn, +150ish Bastet? Both are max awoken and max level.

Unless Chikodemono has something better for you, I would have no issues parting with the Anubis/Ame no usume account he gave me. It`s a pretty cool starter and she served me well on my other one until I got a Horus.

I have a bunch of accounts kicking around if you would like one. I have 2 Shivas, an Ares, Ame No Uzme, Idunn&Idunna, Freyr, Freja. They are nothing special. Pretty much all just out of the tutorial when I ran that drat thing 200+ times to get a leader that I would enjoy playing. The Ame account has some good stuff that I can remember that came from the pal machine and 6 stones. Or if you would like, you could have my rank 20 Kushi account that has like 17 stones, a rainbow keeper, a pair of noel eggs, a dub myth a couple trifuits, a berserk and Indra. Kushi isn't amazing but you could roll 3 times on the coming godfest and hope for a better leader. All were created a long time ago so they will get to start with 2000 pal points from the downtime which is something.

I've been playing this for a while, and I almost purely run Blonia/LL Ra/Umisachi/sometimes Shiva. The only one that is particularly plus'd at the moment is Umisachi, although I will either be finishing out his 297, switching to Ra completely, or just feeding him to Ra depending on how his (sometime) ultimate goes. I really prefer Ra, but having a non-heart requiring 25x ready to go has been a great boon for these flower dragons. He's almost max skilled so I don't really feel right feeding him even if it's a near-wasted 140 pluses or so. It may not matter as I have a couple hundred stored for when his ultimate verdict finally arrives either way, just indecision!

My ID is 324,560,279 in case anyone needs friends of those 4. Blonia will be the perma-up one, with the second usually being LL Ra.

Added you for the Blonia love. Planning on leaving her the first slot for full time use, likely Horus/Kirin/Shiva/DQXQ/etc rotating through as the mood strikes me in the other slot.

PAD sometimes has some random rear end Rank EXP spikes. For example, between ranks 9 and 10 it's ~3.5k exp then from 10 to 11 it's about 1700 exp.
