Sop-loving-det, ah, that makes sense. I'm a Fujin haver so she didn't spring to mind. Still, I'm not complaining

Just pulled Ling Yao. 100% shield without board fuckery sounds pretty neat.

The colab is that main cool dude, and loads of quirky niche things. Better than can be said for many colabs I suppose.

Even the Ed guy is a bit unusual with the health thing. Could be really useful for damage control, but tbh, stuff like that usually just catches me out. Too much thinky hard stuff for my brain

Oh, and "Führer President, King Bradley" is a loving hilarious name.

I have no idea why they added president to his title because that wasn't in either series. his first name being king was always there and a bit silly tho

Anyone got that Bleach collab guy in JP with the +13 seconds move time leader skill they can throw up for me so I can cheese this level 7 of the OSC? I know one of you is bound to have it since it's a lovely 5* roll that has no use except for this exact dungeon.

I think I missed that one (or it's sitting in my mail somewhere in Japanese so it's a mystery which mail it is).

Edit: if you have this yomi tama in JP, then put that bitch up and friend request me so I can get this stupid Baal dead without having to pray for some lucky boards.

I rolled scar, winry and maes earlier and was pretty disappointed, but today I squeezed out some more challenge eggs for one roll and got eddy. This game knows how to hit you with the RNG to pull you right back in.

he's a 1/144/9 sparkle lead with no shield. his hp is also really low and his awakenings aren't what I'd call ideal (I get the joke with the blind resists but it's way overkill). imo if you have rmyr, she's way better and farmable. mustang leaves a lot to be desired as a lead and as a sub

BUT if you wanna use him as a lead then you're gonna want high hp red subs. preferably ones that can generate red orbs because he needs a lot. oh and he's bindable so keep that in mind

When Awoken Constellations come out, you could run Mustang x Antares for a 7x6 team with a shield. They have the same activation condition. It's not as good as some of the other Constellation pairings out there, but it sounds reasonable. For example You Yu x Alrescha is the same thing with a bit more damage, which I have been running and having a lot of fun with.

For anyone else who rolled Ed, I will be moving mine to a permanent friend slot. Diablos is in my other permanent slot, and DAthena is moving to BF slot. 355,176,208 if we aren't friends already.

For those who haven't used Ed before, he is really good. Very strong and excellent survivability, which is becoming more important now that later dungeons almost always have a boss with some sort of damage threshold nullification, so you can't easily one shot them with Diablos/Anubis.

I've got Diablos so I can just grab an Ed instead of Anubis and roll with it. No Al though.

keep in mind that one of the strongest parts of ed's kit is his >50% hp shield, which is much less effective when paired with another lead. his damage isn't that impressive by itself and he's only got a x60 atk multiplier paired with ilmina (I assume you mean regular ilmina and not xmas ilmina, which is different)

mai gives him x96 while diablos boosts it to x102. dual ed leads or pairing with al is x144. you rely a lot on 7c for damage with that kind of multiplier

I have "only" three Ilms but Ilmina has eluded me so far, so my team would be leader Ilm/sub Ilm/deliberately devolved from ultimate Ilm/Saria who is not nearly as good as Ilm / idk Tsubaki or something. Which honestly is probably good enough.

apparently this is a 15 floor dungeon with a bunch of low health spawns, which is why zeus verse was really popular for it when it was live in japan. you just stack killers and make 1-2 combos per floor

Yeah, looking at the strats now I think I can scrape something up even if I don't have Baldin or that other green/white dude - putting three Attacker Killer latents on Scheat, bringing Mito, inheriting two heal actives, and aiming for a ludicrous amount of autoheal awakenings is capable of handling it

(might literally be using Halloween Misery because I don't have the lovely Eva collab unit with 7 autoheals)

Tag yourself, I'm the 4* halloween mon with seven-count-'em-seven autoheal awakenings
(not pictured: assists are literally four weapons [two monhun+lmeta+hatsume] and an unbusty amaterasu ohkami)

on the one hand this team sucks
on the other hand it's got enough autoheals, scheat prong for minotaurs, full jammer resist, 3 poison resist (get the others from verse friend), two heal actives for the last two waves, and full skill bind resist

so it's "only" at the mercy of skyfalls, especially on floor twelve, and the availability of a Verse friend with a poison resist equip

I WON A CONTEST IN TG AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS CUSTOM TITLE
Quick breakdown of the JP top 3 teams:

Team: Verse, Baldin, DroidDragon, Scheat, Shazel, Verse
Assists (not necessarily specific order): Rathian/Sasuke equips for poison resists, Hatsume equip for jammer resists (usually on Scheat for extra ATK), instant heal actives (Ceres, Amaterasu). 1-2x Grodin equips. Theres some variation you can do here.
Latents: 3x Attacker on Scheat, 2-3x Balance on Baldin. Verse can take killers but it's a clusterfuck and doesn't seem to be a consensus on what to use. Some people put Attackers on Shazel to easy damage cap on Cerberus, but you'll probably damage cap anyways on Cauchemar when you 5c. If using one Grodin equip you'll have some autoheals, how many depends on how much you're healing.
MASS ATTACK BADGE

Ultra whale version: Use non-ult Verse and Scheat without SBR awakening. You'll (usually) eat the skill bind on Undine, which means Belial preemptive hits you instead of skill bind, and then you pop a heal since your bind ends that turn and continue. Tiniest bit faster, except if you don't get bound by Undine it's a dead run. Since you're skill bound on the Minotaur floor, you use Scheat to TPA and kill with the small Verse multiplier and autoheal back to max. You have full Jammer/Poison resists so Indigo doesn't spend time locking orbs, instead she just hits you and you're healing anyways.

Overall strategy: 1c every floor except Cauchemar where you 5c. The build is tuned specifically to 1c everything, so changes to the build may result in significant gaps. If you're not going for top 3 you can probably just roll full SBR and bring only one heal active, or two heal actives and skip the autoheals/TPA strategy for the Minotaurs.

Possible adjustments I've seen: King from FMA should be able to replace Scheat, might need additional Attacker latents. Revo Sun Quan can replace Scheat, though you can't do the no SBR variation anymore. Weld equip lets you use only two Attacker killers on Scheat. Mito with 3x Devil latents should be able to replace Shazel, not sure if there's gaps if you use only 2x Devil latents.

Three runs and I'm at 7.1%, lol. This is bonkers. I can definitely go faster, there were a few gently caress ups in that run.

E: 6.6% now. Mito with 2 killers won't 1 combo Baal. Three killers probably will though. Three killers still does not 1 combo Baal. Probably have to hit light/dark to pick up devil killers from Verse if you don't have Shazel.
