    I'm trying to decide if I want to vote for the Yomi train, or wait until the last or second-last day and vote for one of the Gods who is on the bubble.

    Over 50% more people want Neptune than Horus. Just let that sink in.

    I equate people who vote for Neptune with those who voted for Jessie Jackson back in the 80s and 90s.

    "This'll be funny! Let's vote for him!"
    ".....he fucking won??!?!?!!"

    Stupid Zhou Yu needing to be level 70 to evo.

    I was surprised about that also. Ran the blue supers a few times the other day and went to feed them to see Zhou Yu will be level 53 instead of max level.


    My problem is I need 4 green Keepers, 3 Rainbow Keepers, 1 blue keeper, & 6 dub-mythlit. Which I have 0 of all of them... at least today is Tuesday and I will remember to run the dungeon.

    I wouldn't worry about getting Awoken Sakuya ASAP anyway. Might as well wait for a 2.5x skill up event and maybe save a py or 2.

    Beat Zeus Mercury for the first time. Had to one-stone it due to the green binds though.

    Just evoing her ate all my white orbs, if my sup rate with red trifruits is any indication, it'd take years to SUp her with orbs

    I voted for Kaede just to help make sure she stays inside the top 30 since Kanna is already locked in safely.

    Regarding the new Journey to the West descend: fuck the new Journey to the West descend. 150 stamina down so far, and I haven't gotten past floor 3. :(

    Suggested teams in PADGuide are surprisingly vanilla. A lot of flavors of RoBu teams. Zhu Baije does a 99% pre-empt; then follows up with a 100% HP hit if she's below 50%. Sha Wujing has Resolve unless you get him below 75%; but he hits like a truck every round.

    On the surface, some sort of Fire team should do okay on the dungeon; but you'll definitely need an Echidna. Bastet team should be okay, if you bring some solid heals (Parvati?).

    If you're just farming Xuanzang for A. Haku, then just run Legend until it drops.

    What got me was floor 2's 99% preemptive, after which you really want to sweep... but then floor 3 has a 10k damage preemptive. Ugh. So I want to kill and heal in one turn, which means I want Bastet (since my other teams have low RCV), but then floor 2 is fire-element, and it's difficult to stall for skills on floor 1 and aaaaaggggghh

    I just recently got back into this game probably two weeks ago. I'm at Rank 40ish... And I've hit a roadblock. It's the Tower of Flare dungeon. It requires me to have just the right orbs in order for me to finish a level but generally speaking I just get stomped on them. I've resorted to running Castle of Satan over and over and over again to gain some ranks.

    Any suggestions on what I can do? I have a few monsters from the FF Collab that recently ended.

    iirc that's the first actual introduction of a high defense boss, if it's the last floor you're stuck on
    ifrit's got 35.7k defense but only 74 hp, if you bring along something that has poison, or does a set amount of damage (you may have a mystic mask sitting around, especially with the evo material pal machine running currently) you'll take him down instantly

    aside from that, depends on your guys, who have you been going in with - if you have an attacker team you could waltz in with a moonbeam fang witch lilith friend and pretty much just win

    and, for low rank grinding, i highly recommend tower of giants->dragons of the tower during the weekend

    Tama Infestation today, so you can get some of what you need, @mts

    @urahonky assuming you're team cost limited, and without checking team comps; you're going to have to keep grinding for ranks.

    So I just got Ronia to +297, though I still need a Darkness Orb to get her finished evolving. I'd rather not use MP on it, but if a 2.5x skill event happens at the same time red dragon fruit skills her up, I feel like I'd have to..

    As for the next max plus monster, I was thinking Verdandi? She's already max evolved and even has a few skill levels.

    1) Roll the PEM like crazy. I've already received something like 4-5 orbs of varying colors since the machine switched to Evo mats. [RNG is RNG blah blah]
    2) Pick whichever next monster you use the most. Ideally it should be a leader, so that you get more people adding you as their friends. Try to farm some more green fruits today for your Verdandi.

    That's what I thought. I think the problem is that my team has ~8000HP and the bosses hit for something like 3800 each. So each boss I can get hit at most 3 times before it's game over. It makes it impossible to make it through them.

    Have been. Have multiple orbs of other colors, just no darkness one. I'm gonna revamp my teams after I roll in the PCGF.

    The best help you can get for this is to find a friend with auto-heals (Amaterasu, Green Odin, Parvati, [Ceres?]), or farm up/skill up/awaken a Siren. Depending on which one you use, you can get 500-2000 HP auto heals as long as you make at least one match.

    This is actually how the game tends to progress -- you really can't take many hits (unless you build a team specifically designed to tank, which certainly is possible). The usual approach is to put out enough damage to kill everything lickety-split.

    As for grinding ranks, there's a special dungeon coming tomorrow that gives a metric crap-ton of rank experience. You can only clear it once, but it should give you another 12 ranks or so.

    What is your team? What good monsters do you have?

    Sorry I should have opened with that. The team that made me clear a couple more dungeons is:

    Leader: Lv 36 Chaos (#2052)
    Lv 28 Emperor of Palamecia (#2053)
    Lv 24 Neo Exdeath (#2056)
    Lv Max Super King Sapphire Dragon (#618) <-- Not exactly the best, but his skill to turn Wood/Heal into Water has saved me on more than one occasion.
    Lv 17 Fat Chocobo (#2051) <-- Skill has a heal so I've been relying on that, but I will have to look into getting a Siren leveled up.

    A majority of the people that show up to choose from have the same group of Leaders that I use.

    It's hard because I have like no inventory space and hate when I finish a level and have to sell/fuse every single time. I'm down to 2 after pulling on the FF Collab twice (only walking away with Vivi).
