Are Great Tree Alneu and Loch Ness any good?

I got them from Rare Summons.

Both just got six star evolutions, so congratulations. Also you have a good healer now. Loch Ness's final evolution Felneus is what goons have been happy about having for a friend, so everyone wants to be your friend now.

They are both excellent. Tree is one of the best healers and Loch Ness is one of the best leaders when he gets to 6 stars.

Like having them both is going to make your life a million times easier.

Loch Ness turns in to Felneus, the unit we're all worshipping right now. The tree's a pretty great healer too. If the tree's a guardian type and the Loch is anima then those are jackpot pulls imo.


e: I can clear lvl 3 Fennia in 4 rounds. I think she's done her AOE BB once to me in 4 or 5 runs. Edea/Edea/Dilma/Bayley/Lancia(/Buddy Lance) destroy her. Bayley in her 4* form poisons the boss frequently, and the poison's an extra 14000 damage per tic. :getin:

Right now I'm reinstalling the app as the battle effects will not turn back on no matter what.

This is what happens when you have 55 gems and kinda sorta want that new dark unit that just came out.

I welcome Loch #3, Dilma #3 and 4, and Zelban #4 and 5 to my collection, and I'm kinda glad to get Reeze and Lodin (who I wish I had weeks ago).

800k is proving challenging in the latest FH. I can get up to 719k but the last 80k is proving challenging. Guess I need to up my Felneus BB/SBB level.

Finally got a Medulla after countless attempts :shobon: Now if I can just somehow land a spot in the ~10k range before FH ends that'd be nice. Seems only possible with a Felneus SBB friend.

Felneus is now my leader the majority of the time, so if anyone wants to add me feel free. No SBB and not maxed yet but working on it!

Scholars are some of the most pompous and pedantic people I've ever had the joy of meeting.
With the talk of Lilith being a face wrecker I was wondering if I should try to get one of my 3 (probably the anima) to max level and evolve it ASAP for FH if I can get the materials in time. Possible subs for rainbow team include:

Dean, Karl, Elimo, Serin
Cayena, Lancia
Eze, Falma (both 5*)
Edea, Bayley, Dilma
Kikuri(4*)

Not sure how it'd work out though. My current FH team to try and get 650k is Dean, Karl, Serin, Cayena, Lancia(or a 2nd Cayena). Dean and Lancia are 5*, the rest are 4* and in the 45-60 range. Pretty sure the only way I'm going to get 650k is if the stars align AND I get to wave 5 with all my used, full BB/SBB, and 1-2 atk/def pots each so that I can AOE+heal non-stop for half a dozen rounds without someone getting one-rounded on my side. I can't even beat 6* vargas when he's solo on wave 4 though. :sigh:

Is there anything like the Godfests in Puzzle & Dragons here - meaning special events where rare summons have better chances to not be complete crap? If so, should I wait for those to spend my gems or just dump them into the slot machine anytime?

There is an increased rate on feed successes for xp though and runs until 23:59 on the 21st. I just need 2 water pots tomorrow and then Karl gets evolved. After that I think it'll be time to stone a parade in his honor :getin:

I have the same problem. I'm weird so I'm probably going with Guardian, but really we won't know which is best until her 6* comes out in Japan. Pros of Lilith is her BB does insane damage and fills up fast.

^Tree is great, with a felneus squad you can keep your units immune to status effects pretty easily.

It's arguably the best healer at the moment other than maybe Phoenix due to having a 6* evolution until Lancia and Elimu get their 6* evolutions anyways.

The only split is between Japan and Global, though are you on iOS? There were some issues that got introduced in the latest patch and I believe friend requests are still borked for iOS

Apparently, my game cuts the friend ID input off at 8 numbers. I can't write the 9th number in, it always gets removed - friend codes are always 9 numbers long, so I assume I'm hosed. What the hell; has anyone else ran into this? Is there a fix?

Tried adding the Facebook rare creature, but for some reason I can't write letters into that special input field, only numbers, and the code has letters so scratch that off as well. So far the android port seems really shoddy.

EDIT: Now the store shows an update for me, maybe that'll fix the issue.

I don't know how people are getting these absurd scores any more and it's making me feel stupid. I don't know what I'm missing.

I got over 450k on middle by having rounds that went with 4-5 enemies on pretty much the first 4 waves. My entire team could AOE and I got really good at lining up in the order of Felneus/Dean/Cayena/Serin/Karl/Cayena for a metric fuckton of sparking. Even with all effects turned off some rounds had my iPad mini come to a near-halt and if effects were on I'm positive it'd have crashed the app (as it has numerous times in the past, hence all effects turned off).


But really, if you're running multi-heavy heavy and aoe heavy, it comes down to the enemy wave layout completely. Getting a wave or two of 1-2 enemies that result in a 30k or less point boost for the wave will completely wreck your run. When I had 5 enemies on wave 3 and then 4 I knew the 450k mark was mine for the taking as long as I didn't gently caress up royally somehow and wipe on wave 5.

I've been kicked back to my last round the 2 times this happened in FH. One of them it kicked me back to a round where everyone was already dead. Felma and Grafl had stacked so many hits on Karl that he was pushed from the bottom front position back to where the bottom back row unit normally would be. I don't know what hit was used by whome but the numbers ran non-stop on Karl for 4-5 seconds or more.

Probably multiple magnum BBs stacked on Felma's blender-impersonating BB.
