I have 11 blue masks, 32 blue fruits, 29 green fruits, and 16 angelits, with 0 greenmask/redfruit/devilit @@Quote:

For anyone with limited playing time and/or stoning for stam, that 30-60 seconds saved per run adds up quickly - it's the difference between getting 60+ an hour vs 30.Quote:

Friend Grodin/Rodin/Luci/UltGoemon/Satan works fine, or evolved lil blue dragonQuote:

Correction, +19, or 18.1/plus.

I've got a Megalodran at 32, no Awakens or +s, Shinra Soul Beast Sai at 30, with a +1 in health and Max awakes, and support trash.
I think that's the problem... What was your starter? I don't see anything that will allow you to advance in the game yet. You basically have two options if you want to get past Tower of Flare - whale or reroll in the next godfest. I strongly recommend the latter. :smallfrown:Quote:

I'm going to whale. I mean, heck, if I can get the mats needed to Ult straight into BLUE MECH GENERAL, MAR MIDGARD, then hey, I've got something tank enough to shred anything until about the next normal dungeon tier, if not beyond that. And my Starter was Tyran.
Midgard really isn't worth keeping an account over. You will get more golems, trust me.Quote:

I am saying this out of friendship. What you have now, you can get back. Well, except Saiga, but he's not too useful. Any lead from the reroll tier list will have more longevity. Save yourself money. Get a good starter roll, and you will get back what you have in a few days. Take the fact that you're stalled out as a sign that what you're doing isn't working.
If - IF - you spend money, spend it on 1. Box space, and 2. Godfest - and ONLY GODFEST - rolls. Not stamina refills, not friends. But you will be spending real money with no guarantee of a good leader, and may end up right back in the same place. If you really want to spend money, *reroll for a good starter first*. And please please read the starter guides linked on the OP. Ask everyone here what a difference a great starter makes.
I want to help even though I know this isn't what you want to hear.
When did Legendary Skyway get added? Was that in the maintenance?
Id second Obryn. Especially if you add in the fact that you intend to whale, you can get back to where you are and easily further in a week or two. And a good leader will blow past tower of flare.
Yep, skyway got added with the maintenance.
Don't do it unless you are certain you can one-shot the 7m hp boss. He has both a combo shield and a damage ceiling after that - in other words, "lol"Quote:

Or you got something and fed it to something else for some reason maybe? Whatever it was, you have no team leader that will take you through the game and it's not worth spending any money at all. The next godfest will be soon I think, it's been a couple weeks since one already. When it comes, uninstall and start over until you get one of the good starter gods. Really, check out the list in the OP. It makes such a huge difference.Quote:

My Starter was(well, back then anyways) a crap dragon knight(arthur I believe), and I was constantly stalling out every new tier. I eventually got lucky during a Godfest and snagged first a GrOdin whom I used to cheese my way through several of the easier descends, and then eventually rolled a Horus who literally made ALL the difference. If all you have to worry about losing is a Blue Golem and Saiga, trust us when we say "wait till the next godfest, delete your acct, start over and keep doing that until you get a good starter god. If you want to spend lots of money after that, go for it, it can only help, but use that guaranteed free pull to insure yourself at least one good god that can take you into at least late-mid game if not early end-game.Quote:

I stalled out, too, spending more money than I should have in random non-godfest REM rolls, continues, and the like. I eventually switched to ADK which was decent enough in the game at the time, but eh...
Anyway! Let's say you are really stubborn like I was and just don't want to reroll. I get it - I've been there, too, and the sunk cost fallacy is a hell of a thing. If that describes you, here's a way forward with Saiga, but please please please save up magic stones for future godfests.
Option 1 (2012 style):
(1) Start using Tyrra. The starter dragons eventually evolve into decent enough leaders. Stack your team with Red monsters, which definitely means no Saiga. Midgard can stay for now for the HP sink.
(2) Make friends with other Red multiplier leads. Ares, Freyr, Shiva, and other Tyrras.
(3) Get a team of red goblins. Evolve them to their final form.
(4) Keep evolving Tyrra.
(5) Farm for a Gigas and an Echidna, eventually Ult Evo Tyrra.
Option 2 (2013 style):
(1) Keep with Saiga and start stacking your team with dragons.
(2) Make friends with Ancient Dragon Knight (or Ancient Dragon Knight Zeal) friends
(3) Farm for an Ancient Dragon Knight and use it as your lead. Evolve up the Ripper Dragon series.
Both of these will be rather painfully slow, but both are possible. SAVE YOUR FREE STONES. Spend stones only on box space and on Godfest rolls.
I had the advantage of being told to reroll, and I got a card that was very similar to Saiga - I went with Gronia, who is basically superior in every way, and she was still a very difficult leader to use. I've since hypermaxed her, and even with that, she's been retired because she just doesn't carry the oomph needed. Saiga will hit that ceiling much earlier.Quote:

And he goes B/G, so he may be easier to use, as his current B/R form just doesn't fit nicely into a lot of teams.
Now, of course, I have to get freaking Tengu...
Hmmm split Apollo gaining another TPa and two rows. Persephone treatment.Quote:

For ABastet, do you guys think Leeza or Thumbelina is a better sub? Thumbelina has better awakenings and ATK, but Leeza has better HP (something all my modeled ABastet teams have had issues with) and a slightly faster skill if it's max skilled, and her skill makes wood orbs instead of a heartmake.
I love this event. Finished hypermaxing DKali and already started on ARa. Actual play time is becoming the biggest limiting factor; I really need to find some more ROdin friends so I can run the cheese team.
I'd use Leeza when you don't need the bind clear, both for the HP and the more useful active.Quote:

Now I'm looking forward to Blue Cat Dragon, for Nut skill ups. Sarasvati will be so, so happy.
Yeah I think Shiva might get 297d before this weekend is up.
Also, I'm convinced. Thief teams FTW. So easy on KotG.
So, I've managed to beat Starlight Sanctuary on my tablet now! Next step is making it more reliable to beat, preferably via Goemon. Probably going to involve farming and skilling up a fire Mechdragon.
On the phone, I just finished leveling up my last Starling; I now have a max level, max awoken, max skilled Starling, without using a single Bubpy. Of course, now I have four Bubpy sitting around...
Took me 3 stones but managed to get Guan Yingpin down on mythical (figured if I was going to be stoning I might as well do the version that guaranteed me her).
Pretty much got carried by my hastily ult. evolved/awoken LKali and a hypermax LKali friend for the most part. Echidna, Double Maxius and Soul Beast Izuna were just sitting around to meet the colour req and for delay/extra burst since I didn't have any proper leveled stuff that were eligible other than Echidna.
Will probably spend most of today praying for MeiMei invades while running Zhao Yun since I still need 2 more jewels before I can get my Awoken MeiMei.
Yeah, tomorrow is all Zhao Yun for me too. Less for the invades, though those would be nice, but rather for mini GZL to skill things up. Now that I think about it, I wonder if I can handle that dungeon with my Awoken Bastet team on the tablet, they could use some GZL skill ups too...Quote:

x3 normals is kinda cool.
Change of plans, I will be farming +eggs on KoG like everyone else.
Zhao Yun Legend #1 - 0 stone, rank up.
Zhao Yun Mythical #1 - Meimei invades floor 1, 0 stone clear
Zeus-Deos Mythical #1 - Meimei invades floor 1, 0 stone clear
150 stam, 30 minutes spent for 2 magic stones and 2 Wood Jewels. Thank you RNGesus :smallbiggrin:
I'm a little confused. Meimei can invade either big dungeon today, right?
Yeah, Meimei can invade either descend today. Got her invading on my first run through both mythicals so it frees me up to go back to +egg farming.Quote:
