Yeah, that's what I kind of figured. Might put it on my Julie team, but I already have Andromeda and Isis for water based heal options.

Gammoth has a ton of HP, 4th highest in the game. Her active is good and flexible as an inheritable delay + orb spawn that can go on blue, green or dark teams in general. Gammoth's awakenings are middling, but enough to be justifiable running as a base sub if needed. I think Gammoth is one of the better cards in the MH REM, especially for just a 5*.

REM Mizutsune on the other hand is kind of just a one-trick pony whose gimmick is "hueg RCV". Mizutsune could find use on a leader who has high HP and low RCV, but the only current popular leader like that is Julie. It doesn't help that Mizutsune is one of the few REM monsters who didn't get buffed from their release forms. Maybe Mizutsune will find use down the road, maybe not, I hold on to everything just in case.

Edit: seeing as you do have Julie, yes Gammoth is a great inherit for her team wherever you feel like putting it

mizutsune's better than they are for that purpose for what it's worth. tho admittedly he's only better for the cleric role on a a team like julie

highest rcv of any blue card and he has a coop boost to take it even further, giving you nearly 2000 rcv in coop at +297 even before you pop his active (which is 6 turns of x3 rcv, making it pretty much impossible not to full heal yourself for its duration even outside of coop). his other stats are also solid and further boosted in coop. his big problem is his awoken skills, tho I guess that's true with most of the non 7* monster hunter cards come to think of it

Any thoughts on a good inherit for Diablos? I threw an unskilled Acala on him for ghetto SBR and stats but I'm sure I could do something better. No Fujin though. :(

Gronia? Ishida? Uhh... Kushinadahime? A. Freyja or Meimei? Rathian? I don't know what the usual Anubis/Diablos are running, and my team is pretty stupid because I'm running Yang Guifei for the 7c awakening and light colour for guard break even though her skill is off-colour and useless. I'm hoping Momiji gets that buff soon.

lol what a lovely non-buff to Tifa. Oh good her poo poo 5x multiplier can now be activated without making a row! All of her damage comes from rows, she has 5 row enhances!

Apparently the pixel ults lose a bunch of awakenings over the old ults, too? She goes down to three row enhances and loses her time extends, and Vaan loses two light and two fire rows too. I feel like in today's meta you could afford to leave them with the awakenings, although maybe the void bypass thing is considered too good. I don't know if I'll pixellate them as it stands.

I managed to cobble together an okuni team to pair with Diablos, AOkuni/sima yi/RYomi/RValk/7c Lumiel. Okuni is very vunerable to binds though, might switch rValk to a bind cleric, losing rainbow coverage isn't a big deal since lumiel has a lazer.

I'll BF the first maxed diablos with SA in their name, add 327,277,318 !


might play around with a kushinada team too, love skyfalls that make up for my bad matches though.

It's definitely a fun team but you're going to need some utility options or inherits for some things. I've been running similar teams and I think I've run out of stuff to clear with it as is.

I'd say monster hunter is better than this godfest (which is a single pantheon of 6* cards both days), but if you have to roll on the regular machine then wait until tomorrow for the better pantheon

The MonHun pulls are all pretty good, with high weighted stats (every one 1000+) and decent awakenings.

Golds: One of each color. Green, Light, Dark all have inheritable delays. Solid subs.

Crystal 6*: Glavenus is one of two NA cards with FUA awakening, the other 4 are a little underwhelming. Kirin is an unbindable, light Meri. Valphalk might be fun to take for a spin if you're particularly skilled at matching quickly.

Crystal 7*: Two of the best mons in the game, one of which is possibly the best leader the game has ever seen, the other one of the best subs (and the other mon with FUA)


E: Pulled a Diaochan today, which would own if I had an Anubis or even a Diablos. Still good for brainless Bastet farming, though.

What are some good inherits for Anubis? I don't have Fujin.

If there's nothing terribly useful other people might want to use then I'm just going to stick Nargacuga on him for skill delay resist and stat boosts.

fairlight
May 18, 2007

I might put a Seijuro on mine since I was lucky enough to roll two back-to-back, but that might be better for Yuna for the stat boost. Oichi is a good inherit too, although I can't decide between regular (+2 combos, tricolor board change) or awoken (bind+awoken cleric, tricolor board change). The combo count would get used more often but I can see the awoken bind clear saving my rear end from time to time. Wish I had a second Oichi!

I forget this game has sound since I leave mine turned off. I did turn it back on to run a collab or two over the years when someone mentions it's got good music.

I am having a great time playing Anubis/Diablos. I'm thinking I should blow my stones on MH to get my own Diablos so I can play multiplayer with my brother and his Anubis. We don't play that often though so I don't know if it's worth it.

Don't bother. If you want to co-op, do it with Blue Hunter.

Sure, if you can stand the grind and spending the MP for them.

And while you guys are wasting stones on Monster Hunter, I'm saving up for Final Fantasy. Gotta get me some pixels.

I think the conventional wisdom is Blue Male, Red Female for free, then Light F -> G/D M -> D F -> R M as your MP stash allows. I stopped after G/D M.

It's both a useful inherit skill and a useful inherit base. Kirin is just a useful inherit (although a really great one for Kush).

Manatee Cannon posted:

She's the second farmable inheritable delay, and this one is two turns so it's also better than a bunch of lovely REM delays like Woodbahn. That alone makes it useful, the gravity is pretty meh at 10% but it's sorta useful with some resolves. She's also a decent red blob lead for farming if you don't have ACC or Yamamoto but red still doesn't have anything on par with Dios for board change so ALB is going to remain farming king.

I use DAthena on my Aizen team because of the prongs. So similar concept. It can be useful to sweep trash floors with just a prong or squishy bosses with a combo shield. Probably less useful in harder stuff where you pretty much have to cross to put a dent in anything. So take that for what it's worth.

Considering that I'd have to glob 8 Light orbs for the extra boost on top of the prongs, I'll either take it into consideration or find a compatible 7x6 friend.

This is the last box-help post for a while, I promise!

My mom plays PAD too and I finally updated her padherder. she's a casual, non-iap player. right now I've got her set up with a Mito team because she's not very good at puzzling. she's like, a 3 combo, maybe 4 combo max player. but she enjoys the game a lot, so that's what matters! Anyway, I wanted to look into other leader options for her because finding Mito or Mito-compatible friends seems to be a struggle. she had 4 or 5 of them, and all but one changed from Mito. :rip:

https://www.padherder.com/user/oceansailor/ most dupes listed in the notes.

What are some competent, easy to play leaders/teams that I can help her put together? She wants to clear descends, but she'll likely not be touching super hard content. The new Norn evos will be nice once we get them, since they'll be fairly easy to play and they seem easy to find friends for.
