Noodle, I assume you're running Zaerog to farm XP? Just curious what your setup is.

Is there an accessible Zaerog team to reliably clear it?

As an example, I'm farming Legendary Earth with Ganesha, Surfer Goemon, Tengu (laser), Killer Tsubaki (laser), Tamazo Rodin, and UPC's rodin.

Pretty fast button team, no need for ganesh's enhance on last floor, just swipe. Goemon's direct attack won't kill blue dragons so I have an extra button just for that case so I don't have to pay attention.

e: Not as fancy as double ganesh team though. I didn't roll on the bleach collab enough :(

Goemon/Rodin/Rodin/Temgu(Ra)/Tsubaki(Shiva)/Goemon. Push button (+swipe at the end). Each clear takes about 35 seconds. I'm only doing 6-7 farming sessions a day at about 10M XP per session. This should let me max out everything that isn't evo fodder but I may end up running out of steam with it comes to maxing out dark cards since those are mostly going to be off-color feeds

Dark prongers and you need one double skill bind resist.

If you don't have Durga, Okuninushi, or Loki there is probably no point in buying one (sans coop, that is)

For example my team will be:

DAthena(Lumiel)/RevoHaku(Blonia)/Durga(Facet)/Beach Pandora(Pandora)/Eschamali(Eschamali)/Dathena(???)

Speaking of which, I will be looking for a DAthena BF (possibly a triangle?) who will have an Force inherit on theirs.

I've been doing this with my dingus Kenshin x ilmina team and it takes less than 30 seconds to clear. Just get in there and see what you got. Poisoners, lasers, Shields breakers, whatever. It's basically a mini-endless corridors with actual rewards right now.

The trick to Legendary Earth is really just mixing and matching your box until you minimize effort. I ended up leveling a Surfer Goemon yesterday because with him as lead, I can pair with a regular Goemon and use the skill boost badge, and all skills on my RRa/ARa/Rodin/Tengu team will be up turn one. I pop a Goemon on the first floor without Sapphires, button the other three floors, then swipe, other Goemon, swipe on HMD.

Worst case scenario is having Sapphires on all floors, which forces me to use that first swipe early, but even then I've only died once to HMD when there just wasn't enough to finish him. And if you have a max-skilled Tengu, you can inherit a button on him and dodge the problem entirely.

Oh look, the consequences of my prior actions are finally catching up to me.
I use D/D Vritra/A.Vritra/Rodin/Akechi/Tengu (def void)/Goemon with the SB badge

Void > Goemon > Vritra > Vritra > Rodin > Akechi > Swipe

About 35-40 seconds a run if I have to pop void due to saph dragons being on floor 1.

For LE I'm running

BeachGoemon/YamatoTakeru/DragonkillerTsubaku/Lucifer/RevoRa/BeachGoemon

Ra Laser or Beach Goemon floor one(laser if there are two water dudes)

User Lucifer if a water dude survives a Goemon button.

if you get screwed over by multiple floors of 2 or more water dudes you can just pop Yamato to clear the floor.

I was actually wondering on the viability of buying D Athena when she comes out in NA.

The monsters I see being most fitting in my box would be:

D/B Haku
rHaku
rPersephone
Beach Pando x2
SoCorruption Lucifer
Nephthys (no eschamali)
rLoki
rHades
Chester ?

So who else is running Voltron? Because I am about to plus this team up and need friends. 350,083,245



I'd also like to find people that will run Dark Athena and RevoKush to BF also or, maybe, even to triangle with. I run a bunch of different leads, but commonly use Radra, Ilmina or Meridionalis for now (until the other previously mentioned revos are here).

Oh my god, I assumed you were all talking about JP with the zero normal stuff.
I'd just cobbled together a push button team for MP dragons as I, like many of you, need hundreds of millions of XP.

Here's my push button team. I assume it'll work fine in MP ( in the future when we're not all doing Legendary Earth until we vomit) I've never MPd, it doesn't have extra floors or higher resistances or some such does it?

push buttan team

Now, the above team kind of works for Legendary Earth, but my rainbow skills are so low that I can flunk 3 tries on the final big boss which is frustrating.

Can anyone see any mega efficient (easy) alternative team in my box?
I have loads of stuff that I see mentioned above such as Goemon, Vritra etc, but I don't know much about these mega efficient sweep of death teams

my box of stuff


-Ninja Edit-

Or I could just do this...

UHD posted:

Ilm/Leilan/Leilan/Tsubaki/RevoRa/Ilm is more than adequate eh.

If anyone wants to theorycraft me some 20 second clear team, then feel free, but I'll probably just Ilm it up for a day or 2 in a trance, until I burn out

I have my team narrowed down to R.Haku/Sima Yi/R.Loki, and i want suggestions for the last slot. My good choices are:

2nd R.Haku
Eschmali


I sadly don't have a Persephone so if i wanted to replicate her active, Eschmali is the best choice, and the huge amount of Orb Enhances would boost my damage a good bit. R.Haku is the obvious choice to me for her 7c awakening and the tpa she has. If i wanted more TPA's i also have a Dark Kanna and Noctis.

Probably just lead with rodin, put your Ra in as a sub, pair with Goemon. laser first four stages, goemon last one.

You could also run Rodin/Famiel/Lumiel/RRa/Blodin/Ilmina friend and probably be fine. I do Ilmina/Famiel/Famiel/Lumiel/Ra/Ilmina. An Ilmina board with Ilmina/Rodin lead should be more than enough to take down heavy metal.

so what would my best dathena team be based on what I have in my box? (I haven't finished updating my padherder but you can just assume that I'll work on that stuff if it shows as not having anything). my alt's team is set but I wanna make sure whether she's worth buying on both or not

I was thinking escha/escha/rloki/rpersephone, but I could use inherit the second escha on top of the first and run something else instead for more prongs

I WON A CONTEST IN TG AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS CUSTOM TITLE
The LE build I figured out was Ilmina, Dragonkiller Tsubaki, Tengu, Re.Ra, Melissa, friend ROdin. Push buttons until last floor, swipe and the odds of not activating and killing is miniscule. Maybe 30 second runs, most of the time lost is when resolving the last floor swipe.

Could've run Lumiel instead of Melissa for the extra SB but her active is slightly faster by half a second or so. :shepface:

You guys are overthinking (again) the whole D.Athena subs thing.

D.Athena is not very selective about her subs. If they are the proper color, give you enough skill delay resists, and don't gently caress you up with their actives (Hi Satsuki!) then anything goes and you'll probably be switching among many of them. Having said that, prongs and 7combo awakenings are a big plus.

In your particular case your best subs are Durga, Claire, Loki, Persephone, and Yomi (if you need fingers) as actual subs and Vajra, Eschamali, Karin, Indra, and Carat as inherits.

MP dragons save for RaDra are all pretty bad* at this point. Having two or three doesn't really seem all that valuable unless you've got a clear set of uses in mind. In that case, though, I think it unlikely someone would be soliciting general advice.
