I just got a second SSR Gohan (lol) and SR 2nd form Frieza

Is 1st or 2nd form better? They're both STR so I can only run one.

Humble-brag, but what are you guys doing with unused, unneeded SR's? I seriously have more reds than I'll ever use. I dropped the $32 and ended up with a SR Chi-Chi, SR Videl, and SR Roshi, and every single loving one of them is red.. with Frieza, Tao, and Krillin, I'm pretty much set on reds. I have this Cui taking up space.

Max and z-awaken that Chi Chi and Roshi, you will be able to Dokkan Awaken them in the future as true SSR cards (kid chi chi and buff Roshi)

I've just been holding onto extra SRs so far, but if you're running out of space you can level them up some and feed them to other cards, or just spend a stone on bigger inventory.

Spend a couple of stones on increasing your character limit, seriously. It's like one stone for five slots that's gently caress all

It was getting tedious going through every story mission again on Hard Mode so I said gently caress it I'll roll one time and got SSR PHY Vegeta.



It unfortunate that he can't link with SSR TEQ Vegeta from my experience using other people's PHY Vegeta, but at least PHY Vegeta has a better passive. Now to grind out his levels and farm for Awakening Medals :shepicide:

Man, all these pulls made me rethink my teambuilding. Emperor of Inequity Frieza's leader ability seems pretty sick, but I have no idea how to pair him with anything in my Ginyu team, though. Seems a shame to ditch all the work I put into the Ginyu Force guys, seeing as two of them are SR.

Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
I've been rolling 5 rare-awakened z-fighters (with Yamcha the highest rarity) and a filler for basically since the game came out. Not by choice, my pulls have been poo poo outside of an SSR Vegeta that's been useless because it's a green when Goku/Gohan are already green.

It's super annoying. :mad:

I got SR 2nd and 3rd freezers as well as guildo and videl. I like the friezas because they all link together, and with the purple nappa who I find surprisingly good. My team also has a distinct lack of purples and yellows so any one I can fill that gap with is nice. I also got a bunch of crappy R's including a purple gohan who, at level 31 has less than half the attack of the green event gohan at level 21.

Oh well time to try and get Jackie chun to drop so I can hopefully farm up another 50 stones.

I have an SR Burter, SR Recoome, an R TEQ and STR Jeice, and a R STR Ginyu. He'd be the ideal INT guy for my team. Right now I'm running the event Nappa for that, since he links with Nappa. Ginyu Force is a REALLY good link.

Just traded the AGI Event Vegeta for my first form Frieza's +15% attack leader ability. Who needs links when you get +1500 atk for showing up on the line? Makes the TEQ Jeice I just swapped in look a lot better, too, since that +15% covers the loss of the Teamwork bonus. Now it's a 10% enemy debuff, which sounds fun.

This is good because Zarbon and Dodoria don't seem to be very good. Metamorphosis is lame at a 5% heal, Frieza's Minion is only +300 atk, and Frieza's Army is +1000 defense, which is okay. They also link to nobody else. The SR PHY Dodoria's leader ability seems alright, though, +20% HP for TEQ, STR, and PHY and SR INT Zarbon is +25% INT attack.

Links can be weird, I've found. SR Ginyu does not link with Frieza (at least not with 1st Form Frieza that was in the game before this event), but he does link with Master Roshi.

Meta owns because of a bug that will eventually get patched out, letting you heal for a lot more than it should. First, meta heals 5% for each member of the link so you get 10% from Zarbon+Frieza. Now for the buggy part you can abuse: each time you move a character in the attack sequence the link reforms and you get healed again.

Example:
1. Frieza and Zarbon are in slot 1 and 2, first heal happens.
2. Click orbs to lock slot 1
3. Move Slot 2 to Slot 3 and then move it back. Second heal happens.
4. Click orbs to lock slot 2
5. Hold slot 3's character then let go of it and click orbs to lock him. Third heal happens.

This basically translates into healing for 10-12k every other turn with a decently leveled team.

It is kind of weird that the Ginyu guys don't have a link with Frieza, though.

Man, my team is a total goddamn mess for links. I basically have no way to make a team themed around anything, and at best I can kind of cram people in to chains where one dude links to another dude who links to another.

That said, I did get a SR Hercule from this event. Also SR Frieza. I feel like I'm going to have to sit down and write out all the possible links I have, and do some kind of spery spreadsheet action or something.

I can't decide if I should use form 1 or 2 Frieza on my primary team. Leveling them both up and awakening them to compare stats I guess. We'll see which one is superior.

Form 3 is green which is cool since the other two are red. Starting to fill out a Friezas Only team

Apparently in the future we'll be able to Dokkan Awaken any Frieza form into Golden Frieza so it's worth getting at least one totally maxed out.

I should've saved up for this event. All of my pulls over time have only ever given me one SR (Burter) and zero SSRs. I should probably reroll, but I'm not sure it'd be worth it to lose my level 10 special Kid Gohan and my event Vegeta and Cyborg Tao to do so.

Game's stingier than PAD, that's for sure.

Jackie Chun is SR, not R, but yeah the drop rate on Strike events is super low. Just keep at it and you'll get a few eventually.

It took surprisingly little effort to make a quick and dirty spreadsheet of my cards and their links, which makes it a lot easier to tell what of your whole collection connects. I ended up with a team I probably never would have thrown together otherwise that still manages to have good coverage, a decent theme, and hits crazy hard. I took them on a trial run through the Jackie Chun strike on Hard and only lost because I kept getting terrible draws on Ki and he eventually ground me down.

This event doesn't seem that good to me tbh. Getting a guaranteed SR for spending 50 stones is a lot worse than having a +% for the better SSRs to come.

It's really a team check. You need good variety of types to clear it. Also a Senzu Bean.

I just did another 10 pull with a Super Saiyan Goku on the pull and only got one SR, the SR PHY Vegeta. I did get three Guldos (one INT, two PHY) and two of the new Killin, though!

I just got SSR Piccolo and SSR Frieza one after the other. My brother is really angry because he's struggling to just get some SR guys. It's a good weekend for me in Dokkan Battle.

So now I've got all Frieza forms, woo. Farming Hercule event a LOT since I've got a lot of awakening to do. Will need to hit the awakening events pretty hard too.

My level isn't high enough to use all my SSRs on the same team though. RIP Frieza, benched until I can use him.

Not sure who's best as my team lead though. Just using SSJ Gohan for now, but blue SSJ Goku seems alright too and final form Frieza is also decent. I guess Gohan's covers my typing better since I've got 2 blues?

That's the central question. It looks like your best bet is find a long map and fight as many guys as you can in hopes you're rewarded with their cards, so you can combine and then awaken them for monster experience. I don't like it much.

A freshly Z-awoken guy only gets an SR like 3 levels. So I have to max out that guy too then I guess. At least the fights themselves give decent exp on hard, too.
