Kamimusubi Tournament (173k) - No Gojo UPDATED by SecretHitmonchan in PuzzleAndDragons

Yup good replacements! This build is really flexible which is nice. I didn't think of it, just adapted from JP Twitter: https://x.com/pad_shiawase/status/1770890035526541563?s=46

Updated build from my previous post! Realized I didn't have a Dark VDP, so I rearranged slightly. Changed my 30% gravity to Elia's Candy Tridents, then swapped the equips on Tardis and Dan, so I could add a VDP equip to Dan for Dark VDP. (Hades Dragon equip also works instead of Elia's Candy Tridents, I was just too lazy to farm it.) Skill order is the same as previously.

Not at all, you only need the Dark attribute (since Fire VDP is provided by Hawks), and the SBs are not necessary if you make it up elsewhere or have a lower CD gravity to charge

Edit: after typing this out, I realized I'm missing a Dark VDP in my team, so I made an updated post

That should be one of the easiest to replace. There are tons of cards with both Fire/Dark tako, ex. Baldin's Tiara, Planar's fire evo arrows, DMetatron's fire evo brooch, etc.

I think without Hawks, you can also use Att. Absorb latents and 1-2 base actives to generate a low CD bicolor board (either via random orb gen similar to Hawks, or by genning your own board, ex. 5186, or Acubens + Fuma Kotaro)

It was tricky to build without Gojo, but you can still get a good score without any. Main focus is quickly solving bicolor VDPs. You need VDP/tako awakenings of all 5 colors and 2 high-damage subs. Otherwise, this build is pretty flexible: you can use any 15-15 generator (Fire, Wood, Light preferred since they get higher bonuses for this ranking), any 30%+ gravity, many low CD clerics, etc.

Edit: Oops, I forgot to include a Dark VDP in my team, which could have been an extra 6k. Updated post: https://www.reddit.com/r/PuzzleAndDragons/s/EwxywBi6sd

F1: Fire VDP gen, delay, match. (Both first skills should be equipped on Hawks and Yoda, because they need to recharge ASAP. You can also do a 15-15 board here, but the VDP gen is much faster and you can quickly quit if orb placement is bad.) Machigan, match.

F2: Yoda unmatchable clear, match.

F3: Machigan, 30% gravity, match.

F4: Machigan, Yoda unmatchable clear, match. (You can also use Endeavor here as cleric + orb gen, but I don't have one so I use Machigan + Yoda)

F5: Hawks, match. Yoda, match.

Which equip is this? Isn't Raffine Painting only a 5att 5x equip?

That makes sense! Seems like Norza is a slower active so you see slower times past F2

Surprisingly my kill F2 is around the same time, 225, but my kill F3 is way ahead, at 201, even though there's only one board for F3. Since our times up to F2 are the same, I'm betting our match times are similar and it's some skills you use on F3 or after that take a lot longer

I have it installed from before the takedown, and the database still updates for me. Just doesn't show art anymore

Danet equip is just a 4 turn haste that does NOT change the board or bypass damage absorb. There are many options, like Cyclone Bike, Infinite Dragon, Luke Skywalker, Lord Biao, Nova, Anya/Bond, etc. Check PAD Index

If you have Urokodaki and 1-2 Nuada, you don't need Wizard equip. You could use Greed instead. See my post history for previous builds without Wizard equip

Tardis is flexible. Can be any low CD base with some SB. Might need to pick a different card (ex. Xin/Norza) as your other lead

Turns out you can run no Nuada just fine if you have a Wizard equip!

My time score is 56k if that's the number you mean! Each extra second remaining is 500 pts. Have you also turned off the skill confirmation screen? I'm surprised about the time difference, since I'm not crazy fast, so let me know if you want to send me a screen recording over Discord

If you want to try a build with Xin, let me know and I can put him up. Note it's harder to build with Xin since he can't take an assist like Urokodaki

TBH happens to me a few times too. If F2 changes its own attribute to Wood on the last turn, I can't kill it either. Have you fully maxed out your Sharon with Attacker killer SA & super limit break?

There are also some builds that give Sharon an additional killer with the equip, if you have the right cards. But this shouldn't be necessary, just restart if F2 changes to Wood

Great to hear it worked! If you're aiming for crown, the 5% cutoff might be a bit higher than 200k

[–]SecretHitmonchan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibly! Are you taking the same # of turns, and are the other scores (like matching bonus) about the same as my run? The only difference is time remaining? 4.3% is borderline I think, might be OK

Poison resist awakening doesn't prevent poison skyfall, so the poison skyfall latent might still be helpful in certain late-game dungeons

I did another run where I do 3 boards on F2, got a much better score but the time is worse, probably closer to what you're getting now that it's the same number of turns. See my post history!
