Heads up to anyone wanting to get in on this, there's a new event happening that rewards you for leveling up from July 17th until August 7th. It's not retroactive (gently caress you I wanted those 80 gems!) but this is a NICE headstart for anyone new. Level 7 gives 30 gems, 10 gives 50, 15 gives 100 energy (note: your energy CAN pass your normal max if you get it from like the fountain or whatnot), 20 gives a rare summon scroll, 23 is 100k gems, and 25 is 100 gems.

So, I know that evolving a monster resets its level to 1 - but are the individual skill levels reset to 1 for a monster when it evolves? How about when a skill changes due to Awakening?

I don't know if its just me but I have a terrible time making decisions in this game. Not being able to fully tell for sure which monster is better than the next makes me really finicky about making any big decisions. You awakened a monster you regret? Well gotta wait til that dungeon is available again in a week to farm the resources. Thought a monster was useless and used it as exp? Better pray to the RNG gods to get it again. Thought you found a good monster gave it runes and powered them up and realized it wasn't worth it? There goes some good runes and mana. Don't get me wrong, I like the game and I understand that its still very new but I just have the worst time trying to decide if something is worth it in this game. Like if there was a list that had best tanks in descending order, hard hitters, support, AOEs, healers and such would be awesome for me and maybe other people as well.

Philosopher King posted:Are you guys absolutely positive bosses drop off dungeon runs? I've run the same boss fight about 100 times now and yay for a sackload of runes but not a single boss drop. Do I have to run it on the harder modes? I just got the boss for the first region to drop a couple of hours ago so yeah they do. I ran it about 15 times on Hard. Also my luck seems to fluctuate so wildly in this dang game. After days of getting nothing but silver star fodder from my summons, yesterday about 50% of my builds were 3 stars (nothing good but good for evos) and I got a mystic scroll that in a dungeon that gave me a Sylphid which is doing pretty good for me. Now today I'm back to only fodder. Like I've done a ton of builds and have only gotten like two not silver star monsters. Oh well. Also I'm a big dummy and just figured out today what the whole Bingo thing was.

My Hellhound is 3* and L25. I'm going to awaken him next. Do you guys feel it is worth it to make him 4*? I've almost got a third fodder 3* to evo with again.

My Fairy is already 4*. If you need another fire attacker, Hellhound isn't bad. That said - the fire Harpu gets a 20% heal and strength buff to the whole party ability when awakened, and has a heal-blocking attack, so if you're making a crazy fire team you could investigate her instead. Finally got the last Mid magic I needed to awaken my fire reaper. I think I dumped 70 sta into getting just this one - b4 does seem a little better about it, but it's not something I can autobattle, either. Now I need another 20 to awaken two more monsters Also, two mystic scrolls have come up in the shop today. I am now flat broke.

But then I also haven't gotten anything really good yet and was able to get each of his abilities up to level 3.

My Fairy is already 4*. I awakened this guy and almost have his skills topped off and all I can say is god drat. He chews the crap out of anything and his awakened crit buff ability is very helpful. Like someone else said though he is a glass cannon but even with my lame 2 star runes at or around +6 he can still take at least one round of punishment and he usually always is the first attacker. So very good at taking out someone right off the bat.

Where are you guys getting extra fire Hellhounds to raise his skills? I saw a water hellhound in the store once but that's it. Also what's the difference between 1-3* runes? I have a 1* rune that's sick as hell, and then a 3* rune that's like... a pathetic amount of hp and that's it. And then some that are vice versa.

Better * runes have higher stats on their main attribute. You don't need hellhounds of fire to increase skills. A water or wind hellhound will increase them as well.

Tsurupettan posted:Where are you guys getting extra fire Hellhounds to raise his skills? I saw a water hellhound in the store once but that's it. From Unknown summons, mostly; I think one or the other level has them as a drop, too. Higher rank runes have correspondingly higher base stats and greater steps. For example, a +3 atk % rune at 1* will give you 4% atk; the same rune at 3* will give you 10%. In general, you want to go 1/2* -> 3* -> 5*; 4*s aren't enough of an improvement over 3*s that it's worth spending all the money grinding them up again. Lastly, ha ha what:

Thanks for the info. So is it worth it putting together single color teams? I have five or six great fire monsters and it'd do ridiculous damage and crit constantly but then I'd run into water monsters and... e: In retrospect it's at least worth having that kind of team for dungeons that only feature one color.

I'm in as Ipsum I know this was kinda covered in the OP, but if I have like 500ish crystals (the red ones) should I take a gamble on a couple summons or should I just buy more xp boosts. I'm also stuck on the last Telain Forest fight (and had a bit of trouble getting there). Anyone care to comment on my monsters? Here is what I have: code:

Lorem ipsum posted:I'm in as Ipsum You can level up the skill of the fire hellhound with your air hellhound if you don't plan to use it. Same with garuda. Fairy probably not, as you don't have a real replacement yet. Further make sure your monsters have filled up all their rune slots and have upgraded them a few levels. If you haven't filled up the bingo now might be the time to do it. You can get all the gems now and once done you might have leveled up enough to continue in the campaign. As for your gems, if you have patience wait until you have 750 gems and buy the special pack. Right now you get at least 16 a day from dailies and the arena. Depending on how far you are in Cairos you can get 5 gems per cleared dungeon there. I wouldn't buy xp boosters, your collection is quite limited and you might get monsters you want to use later.

Looking at the Glory shop items it seems like it would be a good idea to try and grind out as many as you can per day. The Mysterious Plant is 50 points and if I am reading this right it increases your energy gain rate by 3% which isn't huge it would add up over time making it a pretty drat good investment.

The cost per level goes up quite a bit. I'm going to be dumping a ton of crystals later into energy refills. Going to try to awaken my vampire tonight, and depending on how that goes, my ninja will be behind it.

limited posted:Once you unlock hard mode, even the first stages are ~500xp a pop. So yeah, I'd agree with this, unless you're deathly allergic to grinding. There's better stuff to spend 100+ gems on. On the same vein, as a heads up, you don't need to fight the boss over and over to get his drop. I was farming up stage 3 on hard for a decent rune and got Inugami as a treasure drop instead. Oh God thank you for this. I've just been farming the boss not that he's hard or anything just kinda boring. Also this game really wants me to run a mono blue team. I have 5 3 star blue mons.

Man natural ****s are so much better than their evolved counterparts. I can't see myself ever evolving past 4 for any reason at all. Also, the secret dungeons your friends find give your monsters (a tiny bit of) xp but not you. They're a fun idea but unless you have a team that can clear 5 waves quick and easy don't even bother. also also i found the secret most annoying arena team ever: (the wind lady is sylphid, she has a 3-turn all-team invulnerability shield on a 6-turn cooldown hahaha)

I managed to pick up a Fire 4* Undine through a series of poor (but free!) decisions, and she seems ridiculously strong. Her skills are: Leader Skill: Fire monsters get +40% defense. Fire Drop: Single-target Fire attack (Whatever) Fire Frenzy: 1-hit Fire AoE attack, heals your lowest HP unit for 20% of its max HP (4 Turn base cooldown) Share Life: Redistributes your party's life so all of your units have similar remaining HP, then heals all of your units for 10% of their max life. Share Life has been absolutely incredible for me, since it's a 3k+ HP heal when the AI is focusing one of your units. This is probably the first time i've been so lucky with an early roll in one of these games, but i'm definitely happy with it.

A lot of 2* and 3* monsters are actually really loving good and you should absolutely level them, unless I guess you're just shoveling wheelbarrows full of money into this game. An incomplete list of stuff I know about, so people don't accidentally fuse them away: Red Inugami is a complete shitwrecker on offense and pretty durable to boot; farm them (at a comedically low drop rate) from the Volcano. Red hellhound is a glass cannon that's only okay-ish later on, but if you go for the Red Inugami, you'll find yourself swimming in hellhounds and red hellhound is terrifying once max-skilled. Yellow Warbear is a credible tank and also the only easily farmable way I know about to kill those God Damned blue priestesses in the arena with the mana shields. Yellow yeti is the best offtank/healer in the game I know of, and it's a freaking 2*. Blue howl is really easy to skill up, and even unskilled is arguably better than the starting fairy (it's a monster of a healer once skilled up).

Got a 5* blue Occult Girl from the 75 gem summon, and even at level 13 she does the most damage on my team and has the strongest heal (in an AOE no less). I still have loads of friend slots as Sreegs so if you need a beast mode utility blue friend monster add me! Any consensus on the Bounty Hunters? I have them in red and yellow, the red has a really nice AOE crit rate/defense buff but the yellow one has a ridiculous AOE attack that gives another turn on kill.

Make sure you are creating an account with the game, and aren't just playing tied to your device.

So far I am really enjoying this game, but I have a couple noobie type questions: I read here that you can upgrade a monsters skill levels by feeding them monsters from the same family. Does this hold true if you feed an awakened monster something from the original family? I.E. If I feed three Garudas to Teon (awaken light Garuda) will I still get the skill level increases? Is the Tranquil Forest building useful enough to justify spending crystals on the cash shop versions? I am only level 12 in game so I can't test for myself but I would be willing to save up crystals if the buildings are worth it.
