Quick breakdown for you or anyone else. 1x feed rates

King Carnival: Minimum monster exp you can get is 200k. 200k / 50 = 4000 exp/stam

Fat Dragon: Minimum monster exp you can get is 555k. 555k / 99 = 5606 exp/stam

Super King Carnival: Minimum monster exp you can get is 600k. 600k / 88 = 6818 exp/stam

There are some that may have a higher potential than SKC, but for overall exp, SKC is where it's at.

A while back, my main Echidna got fed off to A. Shiva for her +eggs. I'm happy to report that my smaller Echidna is max skilled again. I'm not sure how often I'll use her, especially when A. Orochi and Sun Quan exist, but still. I'm glad she's back.

SSP is a lot less painful when you have a ton of stamina and can Kagu it to death. Took me like 10 minutes to get the last two skillups I needed.

Thanks for the advice guys, spent all my stones on Gathering and got a metric ton of kings, it's amazing.

So, Haku: I have three of her, one evolved into her D/D devil form and the other two sitting un-evolved. Should I just make all three into Awoken Hakus? I don't bother running devil teams anymore.

Also while I'm asking questions when do we get the update to work on android 6.0, I'm dyin' here. :mad:

Where is the best place to farm red dragon fruit, anyhow?

You can farm all of the evo materials in their respective weekday dungeons: Tuesday is keepers, Wednesday is masks, Thursday has the dragon botany life cycle (including the fruits), and Friday has the ghosts. You'll want to farm the hardest Thursday dungeon every week for a long time anyways because the red fruits skill up Ronia sometimes (though not on the current rotation). The hard dungeons all have gimmicks so you'll need to build a team for each one. There are a ton of sample teams on PDX you can peruse for ideas.

I assume you were farming Clayus for the dark mask? It's generally much faster and cheaper in terms of stamina to just wait for the right day to roll around. The non-technical weekday dungeons should all be trivial for your devil team. I use Ronia+Lu Bu to farm the hard Tuesday and Thursday dungeons also.

In any case, Ronia's ultimate is not that much better so don't sell super-rare cards to rush it. The meta changes often and it's very possible Typhon will be great later. Right now the MP shop is really just for whales but it will almost certainly get easier to get MP without selling REM exclusive cards-- it was the same pattern when they added awoken skills.

I have the other materials to evolve both Yomi and Orochi, but only one Tengu. And I am never running that loving dungeon again. Eventually we'll get Descend Carnivals, but in the meantime which is the better choice? Orochi is max-skilled, but his new one still has a lower cooldown. Plus, you know, 4 prongs. Yomi looks like the better leader, but what kind of subs do you need, and how do you even play it? 6 combos isn't unreasonable, but making a 5-orb match at the same time is surprisingly tricky as I've learned from A.Parvati.

If your A. Parvati team is anything like mine though you will have way less orb move time awakenings than a Yomi team, which should make up for some of the added difficulty. I find it terrible to play Parvati now after getting so used to the extra move time my A Shiva team has.

I'd go with Yomi over Orochi, no question. Awoken Yomi is a God-tier leader.

As for subs, Awoken Haku, Zaerog8, and Dark Izanami are generally considered to be the top 3 subs for an Awoken Yomi team. Other good subs include Akechi, Dark Valk, Hanzo, Pandora, Persephone, Satskui, and Zuoh.

So glad I had a dupe Shiva so that I could keep my old max skilled one. A.Shiva / ROdin / UltTengu / Yamato / Shiva / ROdin is great for speed runs of super king carnival. Pop Shiva round 1, match 3 reds x4, click ROdin x2, done. Congrats, all the XP.

My Yomi team is going to be sub-par. I'm hoping it'll still be decent. Out of that I've got a Diza and a Hanzo. Maybe one day I'll get the Zaerog8. I'll still need to evo him though. I'm going to have to use DKali as a board changer and then either Okuninushi for a delay or AAnubis for another orb changer.

I guess I'll make a run at the hardest Thursday dungeon this week. I've mostly been farming Pengdras and ranking up recently, though I did just pull another Ronia I'm gonna want to level.

Got any dark cyberbeasts or cyberdragons? Typhon? The Halloween version of Vampire Lord? If not, you'll have to go for subs that are either farmable or off-type. Dark balanced is almost nonexistent in the REM. Chaos Dragon Knight and the regular Vampire Lord are acceptable farmable subs, being on-type orb changers. Given their mediocre stats and awakenings, they're likely still outperformed by your typical high-end dark subs like those Yomi subs talked about above. You'll also want a good utility sub, because otherwise your day will be ruined as soon as you take any damage.

Farmable, I assume? D/B Vampire is the obvious one. (Unless you beat the 1-in-8000 odds and got Bikini Valk out of the Summer REM). Chaos Dragon Knight is pretty easy to get too. There's the ult Dark Golem, though you'd better be able to clear Keeper of Gold if you want to make him, or spend 30,000 monster points. The Hadar Mechdragon fusion, which merely requires one KoG... That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

You can make a good team: Pando/Zuoh (for their synergy), then Z8 and the last spot is free. Persephone for another nuke, D.Meta for a bit of bind recovery (don't evolve her cuz...), D.Iza for the defense up.

I do have a Zaerog8, but I don't have the team cost to even field him. Possibly going to replace a satsuki with him eventually, and replace Diza with satsuki when I don't need the shield. Comedy option: eventually replace Persephone with my third satsuki for a "all haste all the time" team.

Diza is max skilled, Persephone is skill level 5, I'll work on Z8 when he comes back, I have a few badys for A.yomi, and I'll slowly work on the satsukis. Ugh, 5 each.
