Well...here goes nothing. Will report back in many hours while I play and work, haha. Thanks for putting up your Odin, Lubony! Love that HP.
Update 1: Had to use a stone on Venus due to being heart-starved and stupid with matches. Now slugging it out with Minerva for god knows how long...I will definitely only be doing this once. Hera is going to be really tough with having to match hearts every round...I anticipate a few more stones on her because I'm not an expert matcher. But, man, this forces you to be better!

This game is cruel, yesterday I was going to farm the dark metal dragons only needed 6 king metal dragons to get my Hades to level 50 and have the material to evolve him. Than the rest of the metal dragons would of gone to my second Hades (plan on eventually have one dark/dark & one dark/light). I ran the metal dragon dungeon 7 times yesterday, first run I saw 2 king dragons and 2 dropped, second run 1 king dragon and 0 dropped. The next 4 runs I did not even see a king dragon, the last run I saw one king and no drop.
Today, I have done the Friday dungeon twice. Using my mono dark team with lilith and green odin friend in case I get hit. All I need is one emelit, have gotton a red, blue, dark, light.... Just need it to get my toytops to final form and I have the team cost to still use it for my semi-mono green team to farm green/water dungeons to level my semi-mono water team.

I got my first king dragon ever yesterday, I went to feed it to my main lead and suddenly noticed I was about to gain 50K experience just for it! An excellent day
As 38thDoe advised, Kick, you're better off going for just emelits on 1/2 stam dungeon of Wood days (tues/thurs). If you can't wait though, the sprites are your best bet. It's not cruelty; it's just RNG. The game doesn't know what you need! You'd be happy if you needed the other ones

Results:
3 runs so far, on my fourth. Takes a bit less than an hour each run.
Got 3 Heras, fused 5 no skill up.
Got one mystic dark knight. No skill up.
Now I need to do one more run after this to replace my two baby Heras for my zombie team but I think I'm done after that. Takes way too much time to fail on skillups.
Ugh...Ama/Odin with Hera sounds so nice. I'll be at this all day...hoping for some luck with hearts on Hera. Still on Minerva playing every few minutes. Maybe I'll get an Ama/Odin of my own someday and plow through, hehe.
Sucks about the skill-up fails, though.

You could also try the Valkyrie Healer team Smoogy. No experience with that since I lack Viper/Valk.
Ew, I wish there was a way to lock out using stones for stamina. I wasn't paying attention and hit the yes prompt when I was 1 stamina short for a dungeon and wasted a stone. On the upside, I'm at 3 for 4 on Dub Mythlits running expert Sprites today, so my Lucifer alt account is almost ready to just dominate everything. I should easily be able to pick up the fourth today, and then I can get back to powering through dungeons.
I'm increasingly tempted to just abandon my old account in favor of this new one, but I'd hate to lose all the variety I have on it.
I am not far enough in the normal/technical dungeons to get them to drop. Before this week I only had red/dark monsters. Was trying to level up my new green/water monsters to make the technical dungeons easier for me.
I needed the other ones also, just don't have a use today for them. Where I have a use for the green one today lol. Probably try one more time to try and get the green one, than put the rest of my stamina into the red metal dragons to start leveling my dino rider and Freyr.

Are you talking about these guys?
Because they drop in the fourth normal dungeon. Departure tower, fire,water,wood. 3 stamina per run, 5 for 5 stages. On tue/thursday 2/3 stamina.
Id say for a resolve team for sprites since you already have green ogre and several green masks do ogre lead, 3x green mask, dragon fruit, alraune healer friend, if you dont have alraune healer friend any will work was just trying to get 6 hits for every 3 green matched.
Alternativly and probly in your best interest leave out the dragon fruit for the lilith, charge her first round or second at latest try and save her for last round as her poison insta kills everything. Leave 1 sprite up and store green orbs at the bottom in clumps like this xx.xx. Were x's are freen orbs and .'s are whatever. Make the green orbs 2x2 so you just drop a green orb and take 5 points off everyone.
Also tommorow when poring tower hits save any purple ghosts you get ( up to 3 ). 4 poison resolve teams charged on round one are easy mode mask, sprite farmers.

Managed to find an Odin with +36 HP which let me swap in an Ancient light whisky dragon for a rainbow keeper.
Clear time went from 50 minutes to 30! Wooo! Imagine how much better it would be if the freaking dragon would skill up.
(I probably should stop trying to skill up things today after ten fails in a row, but my learning curve verges on a flat line.)
But then you could get super lucky like I did when I fed my Siren 5 marine goblins and got 3 skill-ups...and this wasn't even during the 2x skill-up event. Not a huge deal since they are so farmable, but was still nice. I think skill-up chances are a risky gamble, sure, but the reward is definitely worth it.

OMG thank you so much the Lillith team worked great, just poisoned the boss and lucked out on not too many synched Dubs. I don't think I have anyone who uses Alraune but Amaterasu worked just fine. I was a little worried about my hps being too high though haha.

Siren & Archangel also work fine. If you haven't done it yet, go to the OP and add the PA people to your friends. People here usually have the helpers needed out!

I have an Alraune now. Just evolved it today, I still need to level it up a bit.
This might be a dumb question but what exactly counts as a turn? Do I have to match something for it to count or can I just move one orb back and forth until I get a skill charged?
38thDoelets never be stupid againwait lets always be stupid foreverRegistered Userregular
You have to make a match to charge skills and trigger autoheal and kagutsuchi. Monsters will countdown if you move an orb even if you don't make a match.
I'll give you four:
If you have Amaterasu or Green Odin you can 0 stone her easily by getting your hp over 16.5k and Amaterasu recovery over 495 (easiest is to use Rainbow Keepers and get a beefy Odin)
If you have Seraphim Lucifer you can go Lucifer/RK/RK/Echidna/Lilith/Lucifer. Use Lilith on neptune, both lucifer nukes on hades, heal up and grind Hera down
The rest of these will probably cost you some stones.
For the next few having a max skill Siren is very important because you'll need to heal to full or over 50% every round on Hera/Venus
If you have a Viper Orochi or a Valkyrie you can go Valk/Siren/Enchida/Lilith/Siren.
If you have any form of 50% dark resist you can go resist/Odin. You'll need 8.5k+ HP to survive Hades and poison/defense reduction to kill Neptune. This should also have 2 sirens to heal every round on Hera and Venus.
Basically resolve might have trouble with the first round, but past that you should be going into every following round with your skills fully charged. As long as you can combo decently you should be able to 0-5 stone with resolve as long as you don't have a bad first round. They key is to have something which can kill off all the devils asap since they hit every turn. Then kill off anything that is in sync or will sync. Charge up on the last monster. It helps to have non resisted damage light/dark demons and chimeras, low level ancient dragons can work if you have an amaterasu or orochi.
Odin/Resist can have an easier time with the first rounds since you'll have more hp, but you can get screwed easily at the end with Hera since she has so much HP and you need to heal to full every round for a long time otherwise you'll take 12k/round. You have to remember to carefully use your sirens and save your hearts and red orbs. Go into the damage calculator to see how many combos you'll need to heal off the damage and make sure you are comfy with that.
I also have 5 less stones, haha. I lost 6, 1 on Venus and 5 on Hera herself. Everything else is ridiculously easy, just time consuming.
I used the team of a Chaos Devil Dragon lead, 2 max-skilled sirens, a Lilith WOTN, a RK, and an Awoken Odin friend (thanks Lubony).
I think I could have done this 0 stones if I had done much better on my orb matching in certain places and also got a little luckier with the cascades/hearts/fire orbs. There is really no margin for error because if you have no hearts, no fires, sirens are down, and rainbow keeper is down...you are going to die, period. I really did a poor job matching and should have died 3 less times at least. One time I panicked and another time I thought I had made a match and apparently my eyes were seeing double. Oops.
Anyway, this strategy works and for better orb matchers it would work much better. This team itself is a good comp, just slow. Requires better skill than I have...Horus and Ra teams are not within my reach Not doing that again till I get a Green Odin/Ama O/Neptune, haha.
PS...I also had to use a stone on the very last turn. Yup...I used my final stone that I had (whew) to continue, matched some orbs, and she was mine.

Forgot to switch to resolve setup for my last attempt at the Friday dungeon.
Woo, got my dub-emelit and now have a fortressotop or whatever it's called. Plus I nabbed another dub-mythlit so i didn't have to use my only one. Plus I was able to grab a bunch of red jewel dragons to evolve some penguins. Good day for drops
Should I evolve my Toyceratops or should I hang on to this Dub-Mythlit? It seems like I have the expert sprites on farm now, so that's cool, but if they don't drop that often...
The fort has 50% damage reduction to two elements which is pretty awesome when you get into higher difficult stuff. I just did the evolve myself but I also got the dub myth on my last run. I guess the best question is whether you need it for something else sooner than later

I've put up my level 5 viper orochi for those that want to go the resolve route.
