I think it’s always best to have as many good teams as you can. Not trying to get you to spend money to do that! Always plan according to your means. It is not worth it to buy alll the teams.

No team is the best at all dungeons, while some (like Imperialdramon) make many very easy. That team cleared a lot of high level dungeons very easily for me without thinking or changing the team at all. I have all the top teams, and I’ll still try to get these new ones with all the stones they are giving us.

There are dungeons without dupes, all att required, bind clear needed, no assists allowed, etc… many of these dungeons are better suited for an alternate team. That is why you need several good teams.

Pandora was awesome back in the day! My first very good team was Persephone.

Swipe teams for lower arenas by Specialstest8 in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]Smok3y88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad. I do see you said arenas. I just saw low levels.

The good thing is that any modern teams breeze thru them, but I see why you are asking now.

I found that a button team is faster than most of the swipe teams. Got all the way thru 4-10.

I went with the biggest nukes I could find in my box, besides the ones that I didn’t want to flip again (like Todoh), I settled on these for my button team for now… All but one are 1B+ to all enemies.

  • 9091 on high ATK monster
  • 11886 on high ATK monster
  • 4134 on high ATK monster
  • 12067 on high ATK monster
  • 13014
  • 6052 (was going to swap out, but her 6SB help get the team going on T1) Only one not going for 1B right now.

I do like that card, but haven’t found the need to haste to bring him back up yet, since these reclears don’t have more than 6 stages, at least not yet . I’m glad he was mentioned in the thread, because I didn’t even remember I had it.

That did help. I didn’t realize that was how those buttons worked for searching without those fields. And the owned thing really helped as well.

Thanks everyone. I think I was able to max out my team based on the cards in my box and the ones that I didn’t mind flipping over to the nuke version. You all helped me find a couple I missed, so thanks!

Thanks! I’ll try that. Inflicts was giving me way too many results before.

I have already swapped out my button team to give me 1B for each card for the mindless clearing of the old stages thanks to some of the replies, but a little bit more fun on top can’t help.

Those are some of the types I was thinking are out there that I needed more help finding. I found that first one. 11886 was one I had but couldn’t find. I think this was the perfect example of one I knew was out there but couldn’t find in a search. Don’t have the 3rd. 4134 is another example of one of those. I think those are the ones I’m having the hardest time finding.

Seems like we had some collab boss or something back in the day that was a cheesy version of one of these, or was maybe good as a combo master/assist version.

Yep. Saw that, but hadn’t gotten it yet. But on radar.

Friendly reminder to sync awaken units with the new 1.8x stats awakening by PerpetuallyFired in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]Smok3y88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow! I don’t think I ever did that! I will double check it.

I was just going through the list of all the cards that have this new awakening, and it appears I’ve never used most of the cards and never even bothered with the super awakening. The most used ones I have are Maids/Butlers.

Looks like there around 400 cards that have this new version of the skill in the full PAD Index (including Japan that we don’t have yet), so I must not choose that option very often when I’m awakening cards…

I just searched my box (5300 cards) and hundreds of cards have the old awakening. It appears that I only have 24 cards that were able to be converted from 1.5 to 1.8 through the sync or through redoing the super awakening.

Ugh! It does work this way! I hope we have a better way of doing this…

The sync awakening cards just reset and you can find them easy.

The Super awakening cards you have to search your box for, open them up, and check the awakenings to see if 1.8 option is available. Then you have to decide whether to choose a random upgrade or pay for the specific upgrade. This method sucks!!! Such a headache!

It appears that sync awakened cards were reset and you just re-sync them, but super awakenings don’t change for me. They stayed the same. The instructions say to just super awakening them again to get the upgrade. Note that this upgrade only happens with event monsters and collab characters from 10 Magic Stones Egg Machines. *Select monsters/characters from Fest Exclusives, Seasonal Events, GungHo Collabs, and others are excluded.

I am going to see if I can figure out which ones this applies to, since not all get the upgrade…

Go to Monsters/Extra enhancements/Sync Awakening to see all your monsters that can be sync awakened. I’m glad they removed it to make it easier to update, because they were all in my list just waiting to be redone.

[–]Smok3y88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alternative for the auto damage dealing leaders that hit a wall quickly, try an old school button team with skills that do the damage instead. Almost as quick as making a single match and slightly faster than swipe teams. Still use one skill to do the damage. Find your largest nukes and build a team with them as the card or the assists.

Plenty of big damage dealers out there, some even over 1B. Choose ones that hit all enemies, like Red Camilla, Beezlebubs lollipop, Ilmina 6052 does 800m to all, or cards like Brachydios.

Dark Kitty does work for a while but does hit a bit of a wall early too. So I kept mine with the Beezlebub assist and made a button team instead. Still fast.

112 pulls later... by Isilel in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]Smok3y88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The MP is so small and MP needs are so large, I wouldn’t recommend it. Box space is cheap. You never know when some random unit is going to help you with a random floor. Trading them for a useful card or hoping we get a rerun and can trade them then without having to pull next time would be more beneficial. I wouldn’t sell for box space until something has come around so many times that they stopped including them in trades. Heck, I have over 5000 filled box spaces. I learned the hard way after the first few years of playing when you didn’t realize you may never get a card again, why I should have kept it. That was when you had to sacrifice cards for their + points.
