I need 4 turtle medals to dokkan awaken SR AGI Roshi but I'm having terrible luck with the drop. Guess it's just kid chichi, goofy tien, kid goku and bulma till next tourney.

Those that play Japan version how often do these pop up?

I only play global, but someone said they pop up monthly.

I'm at 998 right now. Gotta keep climbing if I don't want to fall below the 1000 tier.

I have no idea why I though STR Roshi was the one that Dokkan'd. I even have STR Max Power Roshi. AGL Max Power Roshi looks like he'd be useful for juicing up Kaioken Goku and/or playing nice on a Kamehameha team.

Don't forget that we're getting a bunch of awakening medals from the tournament rewards. I dont remember exactly how many each but it was a big number of basic medals

Found it, 20 each. Not enough for a SSR, but I take it

God drat, I didn't even realize it but my SSR pulls have given me a pretty dope Rainbow team to run. Kaioken Goku/TEQ Max Power Roshi/Perfect Cell/SSJ2 Father-Son Gohan all have Kamehameha, and then I can use the Dokkan'd Bojack event SSJ1 Gohan and swap in one of Saiyawoman, Full Power Bojack, or Golden Frieza for the third slot

Nice, that should really be enough. I stopped at 100 wins, was at 1700 at that point and grinding for 1000 would've cost me my sanity.
Can't wait to awaken the billion characters I have sitting in my box, next tournament I'm getting top 1000 for sure.

You guys think I should focus on my SSR first or try to awaken full SSR* teams for all colours? Kinda torn on that one, since I don't want to farm medal events all day

I got down to about 7000 and have been trying to work my way up to 5000 the last couple hours but I suppose everyone else had the same idea because all I was able to get was to 6000. Oh well, I guess I can use these silver SSR tickets next tournament. :sigh:

I got into the 15k region before I started getting kicked for maintenance, not bad considering I didn't get to play as much as I would have liked. Plus, I got up to 30 wins at least.

On the subject of pulls, anyone know if the banner for tournaments changes or if it'll always be the DB Saga? I'm wondering if it'll be better to save the golden ticket in the hopes of a different one next month.

Dropped for me on my first Z-Hard run. Nothing on my normal/hard run though.

I'm curious if the other fights have any bonuses to them, or if they are just extra fights for Exp ( Which the tournament has made abundantly clear I no longer need! ).

I'm like the exact opposite of you. I have swathes of combined R chaff and SRs at completely arbitrary levels due to just mashing them together for super level.

I'm in the same boat. I started getting all my Rares that have SR+ equivalents max level and ready to be awakened. Just limited by Crane School medals, and Babidi of all things!

I was like that when I started, and wasted a lot of Ginyu Forces in the process.

At this point in the game, max leveling an SSR/UR is pretty simple (if not a little tedious). This allows me to focus on maxing out (SA and level) N/R fodder for completion-sakes.

A lot of those are being saved for the Baba Shop/Trading Post/Whatever. I don't need two lovely SR TEQ Krillins, y'know? It's a crying shame he doesn't have a single good card.

Though, I do see a few I missed training into their higher level equivalents.

It's a use for Xeno Trunks. :laffo:

Basically, from what I can tell, it's a place where you can cash in stuff (characters, items, medals) for points, and use those points to get other stuff. Apparently SSRs are worth 10k points, which is conveniently the cost of a Kai medal when they're availible. You can also occasionally get Dokkan medals from events, too.

Edit: Neat, just got a second SSJ2 TEQ Goku from the new banner. Would have liked SSJ2 Vegeta, but I rarely get event SSRs from banners, it's always from the next one.

Seven for beauty that blossoms and dies


Hey guys, I could use some teambuilding advice. I decided to use up some dragonstones I had left over, and got R Guldo and SSR Bardock.
The URs in my team are INT Cell, INT Trunks, STR Gohan and TEQ Roshi. I feel like I should probably sub out one of them for Bardock, probably one of the INT cards.

Any suggestions on which one I should ditch?

Who else is on your team? I'd say add SSJ Bardock to that set and lose someone else. That's a good hybrid SSJ/Kamehameha base and Bardock will push everyone just a little bit higher.

If it's a cost thing, Bardock should sit on the bench because he can't hit for poo poo compared to most URs. He's like SSJ PHY Vegeta that way, more of a support. At the end of the day, though, he's a solid card, just can be a weak link offensively if he doesn't hit his links.

On the subject of weak links, SSJ2 AGL Vegeta, the new card from the banner seems like he'd be one. +40% attack and defense when below 80% is a really sketchy passive and his attack is really low for an SSR, which just makes it worse. I mean, he has revival, but he's got lower base attack than Determined Defender Goku. He's not SSJ TEQ Vegeta, but he's not much better.

Thanks for the encouragement. I think I did well, especially since the server went down at about the time I stopped anyway.

I would awaken the singular SSR 1st, to just account for grinding time. I'm currently grinding Awakening medals trying to get Gregories for all the unawakened SSR's I have. I seem to only be getting Gero's and Bubbles (of course!) , so I can see how that's going to be boring. I tried to fight Grandpa Gohan but he hits like a truck and I don't feel like paying attention after grinding that tournament.

Here's my non-fodder full roster. At one point(probably when my limit was only 130 and lots of money ago) I had every character I had awakened and max level I have to go through and get rid of some of the R's/ and I realized on the screenshots I didn't get the levels of some of these characters.
