I've been trying it on Hard and it's a cakewalk. Very Hard obliterates me. It's a decent grind though, doesn't take too long, great drops, decent cash.

I beat the story on Normal, going back through on Hard. I'm at the Ginyu level and it's a bit rough but I'm forcing my way through.

I desperately need an Int character who isn't garbage. I'd love a Piccolo or one of those new Gohans...

I think the Z-Hard difficulty is intended to be tackled by a full team of Z-Awakened SR characters or better. It's just absurdly difficult.

Finished the story mode on Normal, going through it again on Hard now for more dragon stones. I figure by the time I finish that I'll be good to go on Z-Hard now that my whole team is SR except for my Int guy, who I need to replace at some point but he's good for now.

I'm doing the same. Slow going but I really dig this game. Wish I could just pay real moneys and turn off the stamina system.

Dokkan really needs a colorblind mode. It took me an embarrassing amount of time to notice the differences in orbs and to figure out which attribute corresponds to what color, and I still get tripped up occasionally.

And after my first twenty stones netted me three Tiens and a Raditz I've become too scared to spend stones anymore so they're just piling up. Dokkan is still a lot more fun than PAD so far though.

I've gotten two things twice- a R Krillin, and a SSR Vegeta.. You've probably used up all your bad luck, give it another go :)

After getting 18, 19, and Videl out of my first draws, I decided to make a team of half androids and half wives. After that I got Burter and Jeice (really lucky since they both link up doubly) and then... another 19 (you can only have 1 of each character in your party) and the exact same Jeice.

I wish we could trade with our friends, I'd gladly trade for someone's duplicate Dr. Gero.

Combining two of the same character makes their super move level up, so you actually got kinda lucky :)

If anyone's curious, you can play this on an emulator (droid4x) and it works fine.

Wait, what? How do you tell the power of the super move?

Here's Goku! He's a Z-awakened SR, but his Super Move is at level 1 because I've never found another one of him.



Here's his best buddy Krillin! He's a Z-awakened R, but I've found 3 of him and crammed them all together, so his Super Move is 3.



When you combine two identical characters, it bumps up their Super Move on the Training screen.



This makes their super do a lot more damage. That Krillin is a loving beast.

Hope this helps :)

I'm having a really hard time getting INT people that don't suck.. I wonder if their stats are all weighted funny. I had an INT SR Zarbon, but I already use a different Zarbon on my team, so I let a INT SR Dr. Gero eat him. I'm not too fond of him either, but meh.. unless I get Piccolo or Gohan, I guess I'm stuck with him.

Are you guys going for 1 of each type, or some overlapping types and using a color as a "wildcard", or what is your strategy?

I was attempting 1 of each type, but ended up with overlapping Blues and Greens.. I keep flip-flopping my Int/Phy slot because I don't have anyone great to fill that niche. I was using a R Z-awakened Chi-Chi until I landed a bunch of Krillins, which upped his Super enough for him to be more viable than her. If I found an SR+ Str, I'd replace him pretty quickly..

I think I'm obsessed with this game. I can't stop.

Also, I had 10 stones or so saved up from going back through Hard mode, plus the event stones that we got today, and I did 3 rolls. I consider myself very lucky to this point, but goddamn that was some garbage. Jeice, Chiaotzu, and the Pilaf Gang robot. What a loving waste.

I got both R Nale and R Piccolo from a friendship roll.. also useless with my team. At least they're decent training fodder.

I snagged Cyber Tao today too. He's not quite as strong yet, but he's replacing my R Z-Awakened Krillin.. I actually like doing the little missions like that over and over, they're quick, easy, decent money, decent items, and possibility of a good card.

My first time back I got a second Tao, but the subsequent half-dozen times I got nothing.. It's still a decent item run. I wish I could spend Zeni for healing items. That's the biggest thing holding me back from progressing with my Hard run. Enemies that can hit you for 25k on a Super are brutal. Almost have to stay topped off.

Did anyone come up with a good farming level?

Does SR Cyborg Tao kinda blow or is it just me? His Leader skill is okay, but if you already have that role filled he's kinda lackluster. I wanted him to replace my R Tien but he's pretty much the same. One thing I do like about him is he has a link with SR Dodoria.

I wanna farm him some more before the event is up, but am I right in saying that farming and training him will only make his Super more powerful? His overall battle performance is still gonna be on the weak side, I think.

Oh well. Worse was spending near 50 stones for the new SSR Gohan and not getting it. :smith:

My alternative is a Z-awakened Rare Krillin. I'm drowning in Agi stuff, but I'm getting shafted on Str and Int.

This game really needs some sort of achievement system like Dragon Blaze or something. I'm in the last set of levels on Hard, so I'm running out of options to get new Dragon Stones. I wish you'd get stone or money payouts for hitting different rank milestones or getting X number of Super Rares or something, just to keep it all flowing.

I wasted all my stones from completing Hard. :(

I've done 2 levels of Z-Hard and it takes a TON of healing poo poo and buffs, so not worth it. I plan on using Jackie Chun rather than Tao, but I'm farming Tao on Hard because it's easy and I can usually get some supports out of it.

Also, with today's seal event, I've farmed enough for 4/5 of my SSR Vegeta's Awakenings.. Just need to get a Supreme Kai (and a fuckload of Zeni)

Those medal dailies are so lucrative that I've pretty much stopped progressing on quest mode due to burning all my stamina on medal runs.

I've hit a wall in my Hard run that I can't overcome without throwing Z-Awakening some dudes or filling my item bar with 2 of every high dollar healing item, so I really only do events now too.

I hope this isn't a flash-burn type thing for me, because I'm really digging this so far. Moves aren't a "no brainer", you really have to think things through. I wish I could get a better grip on how orbs filter down, or if there is any rhyme or reason to it. Sometimes they drop down like you'd imagine, sometimes they "hop" over each other. I hate that starting a chain on a rainbow orb doesn't always go the way you'd expect. Having some control over that would be nice. Sometimes I just want to build extra Dokkan by having it follow one trail that connects to my dude's color, even if it's shorter.

I don't really mind because I have yet to get a single decent drop the entire time I've played the game. My entire team is event dropped Rares because I haven't gotten anything better than them yet. I've gotten so much chaff.

Conversely, I quit Dragon Blaze BECAUSE I was gifted too much. I stopped for a week when Dokkan came out and went back, I had a mailbox full of SS-SSS pulls and all sorts of gems and other nonsense.. I went from a middling team of R troops and one S to everything being SS or better, with some extras on the bench. That took all the fun of discovery out of it. I know I got lucky with my SSR Vegeta without a single reroll, but filling out the rest of the team is most of the fun.

I got all Rares plus one SR duplicate of a card I already use, so while it wasn't a total bust, it also wasn't worth it in the least. If there's really some rate up event..
