So how do people manage this poo poo? Before I stopped playing for a long time I was using some system from a post on the PADX forums. It was really spergy and micromanagement intense but it was nice because I didn't really have to think.

Oh look, the consequences of my prior actions are finally catching up to me.
With gold as abundant as it is now days, there's really no need to micromanage it as much.

Either:

1. Run Gold Dragons on Fridays, sell the dragons instead of feeding them.
2. Run Golden Mound a ton.

Yeah, it's been quite a while since I've even thought about trying to minimize the gold cost of fusing pluses. As long as you don't fuse five +1s in at a time until something gets to +297 it's pretty irrelevant.

Clearing out my box and I just realized I bought DAthena without actually using any of the free MP they gave us so I'm back up to almost 500k and I have no idea how.

I'm still 45k MP away from D.Athena and with each passing day the urge to just sell extra units, like Ronia #2 and #3, grows along with my impatience. I know if I do that they'll announce Revo Ronia the next day or some meta that makes multiples of whatever I sell in to a must-have.


Like how some day there will be an amazing TPA blue leader (like a blue DAthena on the Summer REM) and justify the pair of Scheats I have, with their five TPA awakenings. Though a blue DAthena-grade TPA team with multuple Scheats and a Facet active would probably result in billions of damage.

Godfest is Saturday and Sunday. Roll your stones then.

Roll the Pal Egg Machine as much as you can. +eggs are nice and some of the monsters have nice active for a new team.

The pink machine will be here for a week after the Godfest so you can make a 10 stone pull on that after Monday if you like.

1. Only spend magic stones on pulling monsters from the Rare Egg Machine or (sparingly) for increasing box space.
2. Only pull from the REM during a godfest (alters the drop rates and drop pool to be a lot better).
3. Godfests happen in the middle and at the end/beginning of months, on the weekend.

It's more complicated than that the more you get into specifics, but those are good basics to know.

As to specifically what you should do with your stones right now, /ideally/ you want to not only pull during a godfest but during a very good godfest. There is one happening Sat/Sun but it has some problems. The optimal per stone usage would be to just hoard stones and wait for the right opportunity, but it will slow your ability to progress in the game and also make it more boring to play if your box is literally just one monster.

I would say feel free to spend all your stones in that godfest, you'll be getting a lot from clearing out normals / early techs, especially with challenge mode stones ontop of that in the near future.

Probably split stones between the two days to get a balance of different monsters.

This is particularly good advice.

I wouldn't worry about trying to play "optimally". If you play for two weeks and then you decide you want to try to optimize the poo poo out your account, you can always start over. Two weeks of play and no money spent is nothing in this marathon of a game.

I will say that kushi is way more fun to play than DAthena. I was dreading slogging through the new challenge mode, but after using kushi/haku/reine to practice my skills I've found the gameplay really engaging and I'm almost done with the Normals already. It's weird to actually work on my puzzle skills after cruising through content with a perfect RaDra team.

I'm just hoping I can actually hone my skills and finally git gud enough to break 1% on the combo-friendly ranking dungeons.
