I can cram a Genie on my Ra team. I've got DKali max level/skilled. LKali should be max level after today but she's not max skilled yet.

I don't have Isis so I'll have to use Chrono Turtle or Droid Dragon or something in that last spot.

No! Only genie. Zaerog8 wave 9 opens with a 2 turn skill delay so you NEED to cast your buffs the turn you're killing wave 8. Coincidentally genie's buff lasts exactly 3 turns which is perfect (1 turn passes with zaerog's preemptive, then 2 to block his instakills).

After I realized how OP genie is for farming zaerog8, my clear rate was exactly 100% over dozens of runs.

This is why people say never sell non-dupe REM only rolls!

If they're going to give her x2 then it should require some effort. If it was just x7 or so to get to x2, that'd be way too insane. Ra needs a skill and 5 colors. Sakuya should at least work that hard for her x10*

Dude, Ra needs 5 and a skill (of which there are conveniently a few that make five) that's, like, real loving easy. And A.Isis exists to have them skills ready most of the time.

Again, check Kite. He's a mono-color leader (don't be fooled by the rainbow requirements) that has an built-in Kali active who does 64x at four combos. Now *that's* powerful. 100x at 8 combos is nowhere near close to that.

A typical Yomi team deals around 100x damage at 7 combos (don't forget the orb enhances, of which she has lots: my team has 14), has three hours to set the board and is mono color. I guess that's way too insane.

Why would you have Isis in there? She's trash for Sakuya. Go with Susano, mini valk, Kushi, Sherospanda, even Athena is better. Liu Bei is fine if you're running eco-friendly Sakuya (or need to pierce some really heavy shield) but not otherwise.



As for that Ra team, there is no adecuate substitute for D.Kali in there, unless you want to risk getting orb screwed. In JP you can use Santa Fencer and just run double L.Kali.

Isis was there because I was just thinking of greens (that I have) without orb changes and I was already primed from the earlier Ra question. I also forgot she's now L/B in her awoken stage.
As for Yomi, is the x100 value from orb enhances? (This is me assuming that you normally have one Zaerog∞ which would give 9 enhances. Not sure what other cards are typical of a yomi team)

Watery Temptress. It's a survey dungeon that shows up in the coin dungeons occasionally.

The X-COM project did not deliver the universe's ultimate cup of coffee. You have failed to save the Earth.


I think a challenge for Awoken Sakuya teams is getting enough fingers to actually hit your combo counts reliably.

Apollo, Ilya, and Valk are all great orbchangers for her, but none of them have TEs. If you running multiples of them, then you're looking at like 3 or 4 TEs on the team. That is going to make dealing with bad board setups very difficult. Throw Kanna on there and the problem is even worse.

She also lacks a premium double TE like Ra has in Dkali. You can always say gently caress it and run dark on her team anyway, but now you're playing a lot like Ra and working harder to get the same numbers. Bastet and Yomi might get you the move times while covering green, though both are S tier leaders in their own right.

I think she'd benefit really heavily from the mini TE awakenings.

The D.Kali is there to have space for the Genie (or Indra, they let you relax in floor 9) and still have 2 board changes.

Your team is perfectly fine. Unless you have plenty of HP eggs that D.Iza probably won't save you from most mid hits and definitely won't save you from floor 9, test her out and her fat, fat team cost and see if she's actually helping or if another dark mon is better. Also, put your dark mon on the left-most slot in your team (Although Ra can lazer the third floor).


Postal Parcel posted:

Yes, it is the orb enhances. With 10 orb enhances you get 1.5x extra damage on top of the 1.3x damage you do when matching five +dark orbs. So a Yomi team goes from 56.25x to ~100x at 10 orb enhances.

You know, I question my decision to continue working on Ult Gigas. Sure he was a replacement for my Homura on my A. Shiva and Urd teams as a fast orb changer with TPA, but really though.... I have Ult Ares now at level 33, an Awoken Minerva at 90, an Ame needing levels and evolutions for her valuable bind-clearing form... Do you guys think I really should keep working on leveling Ult Gigas up when I think I have at least 3 other arguably more valuable subs to work on instead?

OK sounds good. I'm not a fan of her cost either for these types of dungeons so she may end up sitting out. Thanks!

e: I guess I can play around and see if A.Hades fits. Low cost and the gravity could be nice.

So which will be better/more consistent: Ra/LKali/LKali/AIsis/DIza or Ra/LKali/Genie/AIsis/DIza? Ra, Isis and one LKali are +297.

What does your Gigas look like now? All he really needs is to be max skilled to be useful. Is your Homura max skilled? What about Minerva?

Gigas's ATK isn't that high. You use him for the 5 turn orb change and his HP when you need that combo.

Do you have any problems matching six if you have one less extra second to move your orbs? If so, then consider using the Genie one but remember that it only has one board changer so don't waste your Kali. For instance, you can use a Ra active to clear floor 6, then another active plus a prong combo if you get orb-screwed in floor 7, which will let you kill the small dragons with a 4x damage combo and hopefully get a better board.

Gigas is fully evo'd at level 29, max skilled. Homura is max evo'd, max leveled, max skilled. Minerva is level 90, awoken, and not skilled at all.

And yeah Gigas's hp is definitely the best part about him for my A. Shiva team, true.

Gigas is easy to skill up and the same dungeon that gives his skill up dudes, also gives decent red xp. Skill him up as he's invaluable sometimes, and he offers a different skill to the other you mention. His HP can get you above some thresholds, but don't rush to level him as it's really the orb change he's most usefull for.
