So what have people used for floor 7 on this challenge? I'm finally getting around to doing it and I'm either a) not doing enough damage fast enough or b) doing WAYYYY the gently caress too much damage and getting it all gonged. I wish we had guys with box awakening in NA but alas we don't. No idea what the best strategy would be. I have most of the current meta teams.

I did it with Aizen. I ended up having to tank one hit so I'd bring a shield if possible. But if you double cross, you can usually do about 1/4 to 1/3 of his hp without going over. Would also help if you use Aizen's active so he can help with damage as well. But there are probably better teams for it as well.

idk why you'd need an rmyr either if you have diablos since anubis/diablos is still easier and more damage, aren't they? plus the whole point of dathena is how brainless she is and rmyr ain't that. she'd be a great sub if anyone other than herself needed her but they don't

still, if you wanna buy her anyway just for something different then some other good subs are: urd, red ney, red cotton (wouldn't even be surprised if we got her before rmyr considering how dathena went), dantalion, inahime. saria, verdandi, and beach urd are all good off color board changes to inherit

literally I need anything that can clear harder content than Anubis. I have not used a different lead for anything in weeks.

I checked your posts to see what you have and you've probably got better leaders than Momiji. But that said, it looks like you've got a good selection of Light monsters and Momiji might be a fun leader to play for a while. She's also a really good sub for a lot of teams so definitely level/evo/skill her and try her out.

It might be hard to find friend leaders for a Revo Indra team. I don't have Indra at all so I can't say.

My problem isn't that I don't have any good leaders, I'm just kind of tired of constantly using Julie. I have Ilm, Amenominakanushi, and Sarasvati as viable leads but don't quite have the resources to make up for how orb hungry they all are just yet and I'm still not sure what I could use as subs for Ilm. The Revo Liu Bei team is slowly coming online, but I still have to farm more tans and pys for my Zeus army.

Momiji is definitely going to be placed on some team. I never have enough light orbs for Ameno even with their active and Arondight's, and she kind of helps Revo Izanagi even if she gets nothing from him.

FYI, Zeus Dios is tomorrow and also drops King Woodtans at the same time. It will be a perfect time to finish your Zeus army.

Such an easy "free" combo when the whole board is bugging out changing colors constantly. Sure, a super pro such as yourself can make a 10 combo in that state but the best I could manage was 6

You realize you can pick up an orb to stop it from changing and when you drop it, it will be the same color as when you picked it up. So you can create your own patterns as long as you take the time to do so. Once your done with your pattern, wait for the right moment and make a very quick 1 orb swipe to complete.

How do you "make your own pattern" without moving orbs around? It's not like you can pause halfway through your move to let the color-changing orb get to the right color.

Move time doesn't start ticking until you literally move the orb out of its position for the first time. You could have 1 second and still do it.

if you pick up an orb but don't move it, it doesn't count as a turn when you drop it

Wait, for real? Is this true for all versions/devices?

Although, don't think that I'd have any chance of pulling it off on my phone screen - orbs are tiny and very slight movements tend to register as moves.

Yep, it's true across all devices. It's how people can solve blind boards by picking up the orb and seeing what it is and then remembering the board. The timer doesn't start until an orb moves from it's initial starting spot.

It's also how you can use Myr's skill, pick up an orb during the Change The World and wait out the timer and still not lose your turn.

he's a combo lead with no restrictions so you have a lot of freedom

heart makers are important since his damage is higher when he has over half health and he doesn't boost rcv. 7c and prongs are good for damage, stacking fingers helps you make your combos

e: you might wanna try rolling for inahime tomorrow because her awoken form is a good sub and her base is a great inherit for cthugha

I didn't know the trick to manipulate the whole board and think it is lovely to assume everyone is gonna know it. I never neded to know this in all other times I have run into this mechanic since it wasnt the entire loving board.

He likes Diablos as a friend leader, and just about anything you want as a sub. The new ult Norns are pretty nice options, with their 7-combo and Follow-up Attack awakenings.

After doing 7 rolls of crap (new crap, but crap) in the JP godfest I go to the US one in hopes of getting a Chiyo. And as expected I get MeiMei #261 and Karin #191 then a D.Meta (#3 but hey! at least that's a 6*) so let's try again...

Yog! drat! This is the first time in all my PAD experience that I've rolled one the best leaders in the game when it is still relevant! I am always like 3 months behind.

so I say, what the hell, and go back to JP to roll one last time...

:siren: Yog! :siren: Yeah, that's the secret, you just have to roll one in the other version.

I still keep trying Level 5 with Anubis/Diablos and getting murdered when I invariably only manage 6 combos on the turn where I really really need 8. That's what I don't like about Anubis/Diablos - gently caress up the combos even slightly, and you're doing 4-digit damage. Everything else I run, as long as I get the 2-3 necessary colors, I get at least 6 digits on everything (and respectable RCV).

Thanks to the Mion dungeon in the event, I now have all the pieces for Awoken Andromeda except for Ilsix. I'll have to pester someone into co-oping that with me at some point, if that's doable on a couple of stones.

Rein Sakura / Tachibana with all the 7cs and fingers I can muster in the middle is my new favorite casual nuke squad. It's not a guaranteed 100x per round, but it's close.

If nothing else I'm sure you could have goon carry you for ilsix, no stones required. I would just ask in here or the discord channel. I'll help if you haven't found anyone by the time I'm done working.
