What's that, we're doing some rolls outside of a godfest for knights? Okay!

Verche
Melon Dragon
Wee Jas (3rd)
Dino Rider (completes my rider set)
Fairlion x2
Dill Sirius (2nd)
Red Knight, Nim
Leeza (3rd)
Tiamat
Fairlio

Welp, nobody to blame but myself for that. At least I got one, though it's not Muse.

Also went 5/20 to max skill my LKali. Glad I saved all those Angelits I got while I was farming Devilits to skill up my DMeta (2 weeks before her ult was announced).

Anyone running evolved Siren or Alraune? I'm trying to get a resolve team together for the Friday dungeon so I can finally get rid of these crappy subs I've been using.

Also, anyone want to exchange presents?

I can answer that, having copied his team: you just make light prongs. The targeting system favors hitting Dark enemies with Light attacks, so it'll target both Dublits while leaving the BabyTama untouched. I feel like there's some luck in the BabyTama not _immediately_ locking down your unused orb-changers, but it's worked for me so far.

Follow-up, just ran it again with Isis in my 4th slot in-place of L.Meta. I ended up matching poorly on waves 1 and 2 and needing to burn both Verche and Fuma to get to wave 3. But even then, it didn't matter: prong, prong, 3-match, 3-match was enough to burn down the Dubmythlits in 4 turns, with a turn to spare. Didn't even use Isis to get more pings in. Next time I think I'm going to try swapping Isis for L. Kali.

I just realized I never awakened Isis, so she could've gotten bound anyway. Whoops!

It still gets me, every time, I go into a Weekday Legend dungeon and it has the boring "normal dungeon" background instead of their original backgrounds from when they were urgent dungeons.

35 rolls on the PAL machine for rare evo materials, the best thing I got was a Rainbow Keeper. Oh, and the skill-up bird for Amaterasu, bringing her to skill lvl 5-not one has failed to skill up so far, which is pretty awesome. Still no Angelit or KoG :(

(Also, 200 days played today, rank 233, and would have been much higher if not for loving around with the old Pengdra cycle for weeks at one point)


And add a section for EU where it's either a warning not to bother with EU if you have other options, or just a :smith: emote

Speaking of, any EU players want a present? I think a goon sent me one recently but I don't remember who, so couldn't send mine back.

I'd be down to trade presents. I'm guessing you're Pigeon@SA?

24 rolls on the PAL machine, and I got a green, blue, and yellow orb. Pretty happy that I finally get my attacker Amaterasu.

I've finally reached the point where I don't actually need any of the orbs except Red for Hera-Ur. Guess which color I've never, ever gotten a single invade for? How's a mono-red team do on Hera Bjork? I have most, if not all, of the components (RSonia, Shiva, Uzume, Echidna, etc.) but I'm not sure how to handle the Leviathan round.

EDIT: Oh, and blue orbs for Hera-Is technically, but I don't see the point of trading a 30% gravity for a handful of mediocre awakenings.

This (well, a better written version) should probably go in the wiki guides or first post or something, but there are better newbie options for cheesing mask/dublit dungeons than the old resolve team. These days anyone who can max-level a Siren or whatever is running better stuff in their leader slot, meaning you have to specifically ask people to put them up which takes forever. Try one of these methods instead:

1.) Too much HP: Pair up a 2x HP leader like a Snow Globe Dragon with a friend 2x HP leader like ultimate Artemis, Hermes, or Ares. Load up your team with high-hp evo mats like Keepers and Dub-lits, and before you know it you'll end up with like 40,000ish HP and can just face-bash through the dungeon. Upside is this makes for an easy and reliable clear, as you're not vulnerable to synced monsters. Downside is it may require some luck in your monster box. Snow Globe Dragons are given out during special events, and have a solid chance to pop out of the rank 20 friend gift. You may also need to rely on PAL egg machine luck to pick up some of the subs, like Keeper of the Gold, Keeper of the Rainbow, and the Dub-lits.

2.) Grodin: Shining Lance Wielder, Odin is basically an all-in-one resolve team. You get 80% damage reduction on the first hit you take (provided you're at full hp), and when fully awoken he will auto-heal you for 2,000 HP every turn you match an orb type. He also has a lot of beefy stats to go with, and its fairly easy to find people running him as a friend leader. Pair him up with your highest HP monsters of any color. Like resolve teams, he's vulnerable to synced monsters.

Running a resolve team will still work, but I'd only do it if you can't run either of the above. Amaterasu might be an easier to find friend leader auto-healer than Siren or Alraune.

0/6 for Dublits. Wish we could just pay gold for the lower-tier evo materials, even if the prices were grossly inflated. Just dropping a million gold I'm not using to buy one would be far better than spending 60+ stamina for the drop.

Thanks, I'll try these. I was just going off of the strategy posted for the Friday dungeon on the wiki linked in the OP. I did manage to just brute force it once by timing my attacks correctly and using some orb changers. I don't really have any high HP evo mats yet, but I'll see what I can figure out.

Nim, Arcline and Delgado are straight upgrades to King Flamie, Shynee and Woodsie respectively. (They trade in a slightly weaker multiplier for a shorter cooldown, better stats and awakenings, a subtype and a subattribute)

Arcline is the weakest of that bunch because Sandalphon is a good farmable replacement. There are times where his shorter CD and skillboost will be needed though, and he's usable out of the box while Sandalphon's initial 25 turns CD is atrocious. Healer ATK is also low enough that 2.5x will oneshot bosses 2x doesn't.

Nim doesn't have that competition (beside Flamie, the only other red attacker boost is Shotei from that goofy weapon series and he only does 1.5x). She's straight up amazing for Urd and Horus and an excellent sub for red attacker teams in general.

I'd argue that Creuse is actually the weakest of the bunch, mainly because who the heck runs Dark Physical?

I meant between the three slime knights I named in my post. Creuse is pretty niche, you're right. I think she's a potential sub for Ôkuninushi and Blonia but her non-existent RCV is crippling in both case.

Creuse will probably be good in the future, since GungHo apparently wants to make physical the secondary type for dark, just like blue is supposed to be physical plus healer dudes, green is balance plus attackers, light is healer plus something (?), and red is a mess that is supposed to be attackers then devils.

Light seems to be a lot of gods, so maybe that's their 'plus something'.

I thought I'd give angelits a shot with my severely underleveled (50-60) Haku team. It was really easy to stall correctly and got to the angelits exactly when I wanted to, but I underestimated my ability to actually kill the devilit in 4 turns. Instead of losing I got extremely lucky and managed to get a skyfall red combo after activating my Blonia which knocked off the remaining 30% of the devilit's health and I actually managed to get the angelit I wanted for my Yomi. It worked out perfectly, somehow.
Once I level up this team I am definitely gonna use my Haku team instead of my Zeus team, its way easier deal with floor 1 and stall properly.
