If you missed it, GungHo NA has announced that we will get 100 magic stones as part of the new GFE event just like JP had. We will also can choose one new GFE from three new GFE introduced: Hera- LUNA, Echidna-SARA and Ancient Dragon Knight-REX. Just like the GFE event with Athena-NON, Valkyrie-CIEL and Zeus-GIGA, there's one medal that will be handed out to each player where they can exchange the medal for one GFE (of three) of their choosen.
This is great since many players seems to complaining about it, but personally, all the complaining is a little bit boring. If they decided to give you the same as JP, it's great but even if it's not, you're not a loyal player of the game if you quit just because they treated you a little differently.
Anyway... we just got a new game data download and as expected, there are arts for the new GFE (LUNA, SARA and REX) and some more. What are they?
- Mega Awoken Ilm
- Mega Awoken Dantalion
- Mega Awoken Paimon
- Mega Awoken Typhon
- Equip assist for all jewel princesses (Silk, Carat, Cameo, Facet, Sheen). This is for me, by far, more interesting and exciting of the bunch
- Equip assist for CIEL, NON and GIGA
- Dark/Black Event Medal
- Spring Fest Medal for new GFE
- New Greco Roman Gods 3 Ultimate Evolutions (Hestia, Tethys Cronus, Astraea and Uranus)
- Animated Heroines Ilmina
- Sol & Mani Evo Gem (Needed to evolve CIEL, NON and GIGA into their equip assist)
New batch of Mega Awoken GFE
Who's excited about Awoken Ilm? Well, aside from the fact that she's a great Light Dragon Killer VDP, her leader skills isn't that great. You'd need to use a skill every turn to get the 6x ATK. It'd be great if PAD NA has access to Light Bastet but alas, we don't so the option is to use either Tardis, Halooween Myne or Super Gunma. They're all not fit to be in the Mega Awoken Ilm team because Tardis isn't a Devil, Halloween Myne is a Devil but she has no synergy whatsoever with the team and Super Gunma is also not a Devil type. I can see many players just use Mega Ilm as sub rather than lead.
Mega Awoken Dantalion has 196x ATK multiplier and double built in shield activation for a total of 68.35% damage reduction when you successfully activating both conditions. It's a little bit tough with one clause needed you to achieve 7+ combo while the other clause is to match two Heal combo. With double damage reduction, your team HP would be amplified by a lot. If you have, say, a Mega Dantalion team with 50,000 HP, when you activated both shield, it's like you have a team with 158,000 HP! Crazy, right? His damage isn't a joke either. Two 7c awakenings and you have to achieve 7+ combo for max multiplier and damage reduction anyway. He has no built in Time Extend so you might want to bring TE sticks on the team such as Roy Mustang, Planar, Reincarnated Raphael, Indra, Tsukuyomi and the likes. Dantalion doesn't care about typing or color so anything goes in his team.
Mega Awoken Paimon for me is interesting just because of his >50% damage reduction (similar to Edward Elric or Hiei). He doesn't offer anything much in the damage department that any other color cross leads could offer. We're all knew color cross leaders are the only leaders capable of hitting damage cap without an enhance. Mega Dantalion would be great on a team relies on high HP such as Tohsaka Rin and Edward Elric.
Mega Awoken Typhon is the most interesting of the bunch. He is so great that you only need to match four Heal orbs to get the damage reduction. He also buffs Dragon type with 2x HP and we all know that most high HP cards found in PAD are mostly dragon. You got Hexazeon, Nees, Amatsu, Orochi, Indra etc. Since Typhon is Dark, you might want to fill his team with mono Dark team. Mega Typhon only has 12x ATK multiplier all by himself (144x for double Typhon leader) but that doesn't prevent him to achieve big damage by stuffing his team with double or triple 7c Dragon such as Ney, Cotton, Kulia, Nees or Okuninushi. His easiness to get the damage reduction on top of having 4x HP for double Typhon leader makes him easy to stall. He also only needs 6+ combo to achieve 6x ATK which is quite easy. Definitely the best of current Mega Awoken Evolution.
Now, equip assist for Jewel Princesses. Many of you knew that Jewel Princesses are the only great 2-turns enhance for almost any team although the popular ones are only Carat, Facet and Sheen since they enhance your damage based on many awakenings found on the most team. Carat enhances your damage based on the amount of Skill Boost, Facet based on the amount of TPA and Sheen based on the amount of Time Extend awakenings found on your team. Those enhance also being used as an assist. They never get used as a sub, so when you get an equip assist for card like that, it's truly a blessing. One can argue that their equip awakenings sucks, they should put their original buff in bla bla bla. Well, if you look at it, a Skill Boost equip only happened on high end card or expensive card bought with Monster Points so it won't happened to "regular", worth-5000 Monster Points cards. They're all share similar awakenings: HP+ (increases assisted card's HP by 500), RCV+ (increases assisted card's RCV by 200) and one resist awakenings according to their color. You got Fire resist for silk, Water resist for Carat, Wood resist for Cameo, Light resist for Facet and Dark resist for Sheen.
For Dark/Black Event Medal, it was first introduced in JP as part of an event where you can exchange five Dark Event Medal for one Zela. Yes, they can have Zela for free, but the price is steep. To get one Dark Event Medal, you have to exchange five Rainbow Event Medal, and you need five Dark Event Medal so you'd need to exchange a total of 25 Rainbow Event Medal for one Zela. Starts saving those Rainbow Medal, guys... who knows that we might get the same event. For players lacking a Zela, Zela is an awesome Wood subs with her triple 7c, FUA and VDP. All-in-one great package.
New GFE
Echidna-SARA
Ancient Dragon Knight-REX
Hera-LUNA
Who's gonna be your pick?
Echidna-SARA can be a great VDP option for Fire teams while the other forms acts like a Fire Aten with plethora of Killer Awakenings.
Ancient Dragon Knight-REX has two TPA and two 7c on her second evo while the first evo can have four TPA.
Hera-LUNA is a double-edged sword. One evo has >80% HP while the other evo has <50% HP awakenings. Three of them.
ATK multiplier-wise, I don't know why they give SARA the most ATK multiplier with 182.25x while LUNA only receives 64x???
Greco Roman Gods 3 Ultimate Evolutions
Hestia
Tethys
Cronus
Astraea (she's riding a bike!)
Uranus
They finally fixed the awkward Leader Skill on Greco Roman Gods 3. No more gimped subs, instead they made them all have similar condition to activating their Leader Skills. "ATK xTimes when erasing 6+ connected orbs, ATK xTimes and 50% damage reduction when attacking with their board color (Fire/Wood/Light for Hestia, Water/Wood/Dark for Tethys, Wood/Light/Dark for Cronus, Fire/Water/Light for Astraea and Fire/Water/Dark for Uranus. 50% damage reduction is huge.
Well, that's pretty much the updates we got for the moment. Some are exciting and some are meh.
Please leave a comment, good luck and have fun. See you next time!
