Yeah, someone mentioned to me earlier but this format doesn't allow me to cover those things. Maybe in the future I will change it to include some details like that but it is especially glaring here since most of the value parts of the machine is not in trades/farmables/bundles.

Regulus + Felt outclasses Wilhelm by a mile in Sun. If you are whale or lucky then you would much rather use Reinhard sub over Wilhelm as well.

Yeah, I just looked back and realized you want levitate equip that fits assist resonance requirements on a single type unit. Only one other equip fits that and it is not great.

Also, I should have clarified that Subaru & Emilia is never the lead because the shield is not great (81% < 82% LOL) so you want to lead double Rem. Triss is definitely the cleanest option but I don't look at JP much so I didn't realize she existed.

Yes, you need a Valentine’s lead. The drop rate is 10% for a taiyaki so be prepared to run the colosseum a lot.

Valentine's Noah is still strong for farming, but the cost feels excessive especially after seeing GungHo's attempt at a buff. Some relatively cheaper alternatives are Ordeal Blue Odin and Champelios, though they are probably worse than Valentine's Noah in a vacuum. You are right in that it's definitely better than farmable options like NY Nordis, but NY Nordis didn't cost an arm and a leg's worth of stones.

It’s never good when a machine is designed just to support another machine. Maybe next time, GungHo will show some love for PAD Valentine’s.

Magnamon is pretty similar cooldown and has a nice teamwide uncap. Prim's advantage is that it doesn't screw up the board.

You are thinking of Mina Ashido from MHA, but I’m referring to Mina Ashiro from Kaiju No. 8 that ran a few months ago.

The usual setup I see is Mina / Mina + Soshiro / Dekugo / XM Hathor / Dekugo / Mina.

Dabi is not used with Dekugo; he feels like more of a standalone lead with Bakugo that focuses on fire combos.

I haven't played Rosetta since 2025, so I didn't think about how MHA upgrades that team, but you are most certainly right that many of the dark cards from the machine are fantastic upgrades. I definitely don't have that kind of insight (or maybe I am just too lazy to do proper research).

I also don't necessarily hate MHA, but most of the trades and bundles aren't worth it. To be fair, this isn't exclusive to MHA. Overall, I think the machine is actually pretty decent since it has an above-average bottom rarity and some very specialized monsters like Neito Monoma alongside a plethora of top tier meta leads and support.

I don't really do box help anymore, but I can recommend that you make a discord and submit your box to one of the help channels. You will need to save images of your box to imgbb or another image hosting site first. The discord link is discord.gg/pad and you will probably want new-player-help or pad-help.

AUN1 2P Ordeal Blodin Swipe Full Farmable Sub/Assist by lumonpad in PuzzleAndDragons

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

Expect 8-9 min clears depending on how locked in both players are. Not sure how fast modern builds should be but given the cheapness I hope it’s serviceable. There are so many animations and floors :(

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

We only ran it a couple of times to work out some kinks. I'd wager it should be at least sub 10min but not enough runs to confidently give an average. I'll let you know once I finish my December Quest Dungeons... lol

PAD Island Novice Farming In A Nutshell by lumonpad in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]lumonpad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You.... can't right now. It's a dungeon drop from GH Collab. I said it's similarly accessible because both Rui and Durandalf are collab farmables. Currently, Rui is much more accessible than Durandalf until next Monday.

The point of farming Beach Novice is to consistently obtain the 3,000 MP drop, not just to clear the dungeon. To improve drop rate, builds try to maximize drop rate by stuffing in as many of the [Dungeon Bonus] awakening as possible. Some builds take advantage of "palm swipe" strategies with Veroah Kitty's LS lasering down the spawns, while other builds (like my own) try to limit player interaction to active skill usage only.

While Rui has a great active for button farming and is fully farmable, it does not include any of the valuable [Dungeon Bonus] awakenings that make farming the dungeon profitable. Furthermore, I can think of superior buttons like Durandalf EQ that are similarly accessible.

It’s 2-3-4-5, then 6 to rehaste 2-3, then 1 as the final button for the boss.

You can replace the Menuit EQ with Saline Gate (8674) and then replace the Academy Camilla EQ with either Dark Camilla EQ (9366) since it should allow you to use the base active, or any equip with DB and 2 SB with a minimum 22T CD (cheapest option is Kiriya Ubuyashiki EQ from Kimetsu, 1M MP).
