I have 56 best friends. I am the king of best friends.

[Jon]

Oh, this means you simply get a new best friend, and more Pal Points,? Am I stupid not having done that earlier.

I had no idea either, lots of potential pal points down the drain. Guigui, seeing as how much I like running your +297 Verd I think I'll choose you!

I woke up my Ra today. Now all I need are two Light Kali's.

[Necronopticous]

The guys at GungHo are really bad at choosing English words to represent their game features. In this case "best friend" and "reset" are both extremely loaded and deceptive terms so it is no wonder you guys were confused.

[guigui]

Yes, I also read Best Friend reset somewhere, then I just did not do it. This means that every BF 'reset' nets you at least a new BF, nice.
I also read that the daily login bonus will bump to 1000 pal points... or does 1000 pal points mean 300 pal points ?

And Jon, please do choose me as BF, and be sure my Dandi will be max-skilled soon and uevod when available.

[Aisha]

Thanks guigui!

The worst offender is the "Sign Into Google+" thing on the game's title screen for Android devices -- you wouldn't believe how many people I've seen lose their accounts mistaking that as a backup feature.

Ult Verdandi (and others) revealed :
http://www.puzzledragonx.com/en/news.asp?nid=390

Additionnal wood orbs enhance, skill boost, and time extend. Also +100HP, +50ATK, +50RCV.
Pretty excited about that time extend, my bastet team gains one more second to combo. I really hoped they would add a TPA though, but that may have been overpowered.

[StoofooEsq]

A lot of these Awoken Evos look so cool, but nowhere near attainable for me at the moment. Even if I could, I'd think real hard before giving up 2 very rare monsters for another extremely powerful monster. I gotta shoot for something later on, I suppose.

As for my progress, I made it to Rank 150, got a pull at the Memorial Egg Machine, and I've been blessed with Odin. I already leveled and evolved him once, and I'm waiting to get a Mystic Mask to Ult Evolve him. Suppose I'll make him the new leader of my general Green farming team to have an even easier time with that.

Also tried an REM pull during the Devil's Dance event and got a Dark Angel, Lumiel. It's said that she's a perfect sub for Durga, but I could possibly use her as a sub for Haku lead for an imperfect orb change (Dark, Water, Fire, but not the Wood).

[Jon]

By the time you can comfortably farm them you'll think nothing sacrificing descended monsters for the greater good. I haven't used any awoken materials on any team thus far but I can see Izanami's new ult changing that.

Congrats on your Green Odin and Lumiel. You're definitely a braver man than I for rolling in that shitty gala.

[guigui]

I can say that I made a really good progress since I have Awoken Bastet, and definitely not regret the time spent to gather the material.

Those new challenges dungeons starting today give a lot of Piis, I hope to clear as much as possible.
Also, the blue flower dragon dungeon has the Blue Fairy required to skill up my Andromedas, but they are invades and I need like 40 of them. Andros will have to wait for their skills...

[Aisha]

Almost finished with the Challenge Descended! 1 series. This time I'll be able to finish everything but Wadatsumi and the two rushes. It kind of annoys me that a Woodpy is held behind Wadatsumi again, since I still need a handful of them to skill-up my army of wood cards. The ease at which my Verdandi farm team plowed through Mephistopheles really surprised me; I never attempted this descend before because I was thinking that I'd need a combo team for it or something, which is a perpetual work-in-progress.

If PDX is correct and the DC Universe collab comes back soon, I'm going to try hard to finish max-skilling my Darkseid. I never tried going for it the first time around and I've regretted it since. A high-skilled Darkseid makes dungeons like Friday Mythical and even Hera-Ur pretty trivial. I should take the opportunity to do Chester, Merlin, and Sharon as well.

Blue Fairies have their own dungeon, so it'd be best to wait for that. Although annoyingly, it has only come once, while we get Shadow Sprite every other event it seems.

[guigui]

About that skilled Darkseid, isn’t a mystic mask also effective in friday myth farming ? It has a 7 turn CD, and is way easier to skill up.

[Necronopticous]

You cannot select Evo Material type cards for Power-Up Fusion, so they cannot be skilled up.

[guigui]

Damn, you’re right ! Ill stop collecting them.

[Necronopticous]

Well, you'll probably need them for evolution at some point, though. Honestly, most of my box space is just evo mat storage for a rainy day, especially since the MP system dropped and I cut the fat on 3/4 of my prior favorites. I generally aim for 15-20 of each material before I will start pruning.

[guigui]

News ?

- I could clear some challenge descended, but miss soul reaper and demonic fire queen, mainly because of mistakes. I read that wadatsumi may be kind of easily grinded with double AVenus team. Her LS actually reduces the 99% preemptive gravity.

- Pretty happy that Snow Globe and +9 tamadra is back to challenge dungeon.

- Still working on Awoken Lakshmi team. Takaoka collab will give me the Amberjack and ill try to skill the fish up. Also hope for enough invades to get the Udon.

[Cagar]

I'm rank 77, got around 250 slots in monster box, and 90% of it is evo materials like dragon seeds & plants and dragons. Is this normal?

[Jon]

Considering that you have quite a bit of box space for your rank, it doesn't seem too out of the ordinary. At this point I would start selling off the random dragon seed/flower when you get something worthwhile rather than expanding box space.

I was also able to clear the descended challenges up until Soul Reaper. I managed to reach Mephisto pretty easily but by then I only had one Verd active on hand. He blinded and bound my team and that was the end of me. I am sure the Hera-Ur mythical would be pretty unpleasant for my green team as well.

Nice to see you here Cagar. As jon said, 250 slots at your rank is quite a lot. Im rank 250 and have 350 slots.
It is normal to collect evo mat, youll always need it. You could for instance keep 3 of each and sell the rest, or feed them if they give some xp. This also depends on which monsters you’plan to evolve. Imprtant : always keep dub topalit, and dragon fruits.

What team do you play ? What are your main cards ? Also, do you have chosen 2 best friends ?

[Aisha]

Now that Awoken Sakuya is in the game, I'm pretty much determined to convert my light Kali team into an Awoken Sakuya team in the future. As a leader, she makes light Kali completely obsolete. They are both 25x for a match of 4 colors and 36x if you reach 6 combos in total, but Awoken Sakuya's damage continues to scale beyond that, up to 100x at 10 combos. She is also more durable than light Kali because she offers a pile of resistances to various status effects and is herself bind immune. Awoken Sakuya's active skill also clears binds in addition to being a 20% gravity attack, which means that I don't have to dedicate a sub to the former task.

So I'm thinking of going with this team, but I'm not set on Sun Quan's inclusion. Mini Valkyrie is probably the best way to cover the wood requirement, but I don't have her.

[Cagar]

Well I play dragon team lead by Vritra, and I have lots of friends that help me with that. (thanks to few Anima friends I've been wrecking dungeons)

Remember this?
Well guess what? As a non-iap player with my only 5 stones I...

Spoiler

rolled a fucking Anima today

[guigui]

Nice collection of plants here. You can get pengdras quite easily in the first 3 technical dungeons duringbthe monday bonus. I currently have 85 blue ones waiting for plants too...
In a general way, dragons are not the best monsters out there, so I’d advise not to spend many material onto them. Your Lubu, Sun quan and metatron are pretty solid leaders.
Now that you have morebthan enough box’space, I’d advise to keep your stones and spend them in an upcoming godfest. I think well have one next weekend. This way you can get rare monsters for your teams.
Also, check out the padx site for infos on monsters and timing of special dungeons.

Finally, dont hesitate to add me as friend 318 151 325. If you need some specific leader and I have them, I can put them up for you. Dont forget that you can also choose up to 2 best friends, this system gives free Pal Points to everyone !

[Jon]

I'm pretty exited for Sakuya's new awoken form too. Awoken I&I looks like a good potential lead as well. Too bad I just wasted an Angelit on her B/L version.

Cagar, I have a few spots available if you need more friends: 331 650 356

Aisha, if you have space could you also add me? Your leads would be be greatly appreciated.

[Aisha]

Okay, I'll send an invite. I always have Red Sonia up, and most of the time Beelzebub as well. Occasionally you'll see Verdandi, Ganesha, light Kali, and Athena. Awoken Bastet, Shiva, and Sakuya in the future.

[Necronopticous]

No badpys were harmed in the making of this card. You...you guys don't know how sick of the dungeon I am.

[guigui]

You ... you are crazy.
Can you, please, stop posting screenshot showing 300+ stones hoarded, when you probably just burnt 50 of them to farm...
Ayway, I hope ths guy turns out to be as good a leader as it looks. Now you certainly made you want him, but I cant clear this dungeon yet.

[Aisha]

He's usually used as a sub in contemporary dark teams like those led by Kite or Awoken Yomi, the latter of which I think Necro is working towards. I'd be inclined to slaughter Badpys because that dungeon looks like a chore to farm, unless it just appears harder than it really is.

I don't really spend stones anymore. I made an exception for this dungeon and spent about 10 total for stamina refreshes, but Star Vault is pretty much the only other thing that I spend stones on. Hoarding stones is my new meta, and I've been doing it for quite a while now. I haven't rolled a REM in quite some time.

Yeah, this guy is destined for my Awoken Yomi team. The dungeon is nuts, easily one of the hardest in the game thus far, but I was able to do it pretty consistently thanks to a full hypermax perfect Ra team. Every single run took time and patience, though, and even then I died a few times. There is no way to blow through this thoughtlessly the way you normally would want to if you are farming for 10 (!!!) skill ups. I hear a good Awoken Bastet team can do it with less difficulty, but I'm more of a Ra guy.

The worst part is that I want a second one. Kill me.

[guigui]

As much as I want a Liu Bei for my green teams, I dont think I'll roll this godfest. Having only 2X rate for 3Kingdoms and Sengoku is not enough, and, according to the fate of the desire sensor, 4X rate to exclusive shall only give me my 4th Verdandi.

Who will roll ? Cagar, if you have some stones left, it would be a good time to spend them.

[Aisha]

I'm thinking about it. I need a dark Kali and the 4x GFE rate is very tempting. I don't care about the pantheons though. I've had my fill of the Three Kingdoms; and while the Sengoku pantheon is brand new, I don't want anything from it. I'm sure I'll end up with a useless green Odin or something. Someone confiscate my stones...

[Jon]

I don't think I'll be able to resist. The dupe factor for three kings is high but I really want Lu Bu and Light Kali. The Sengoku Generals look cool but don't do much for me.
