What Android version? Settings -> About Phone.

Android Version 4.1.2

[Coda]

If you go into Settings -> Apps and swipe left you can get to a list of all installed apps. From there you can uninstall updates (thereby freeing space) and probably disable the apps (which will prevent them from running or auto-updating). If there's something you can't disable, go to the app's page on the Play Store and the three-dot menu in the top-right corner will include an option to toggle auto-updates.

I'll have to do the google store part, cause disabling the google text to speech doesn't do crap, it still re-downloads and updates a day later. ><

thanks coda =)


edit: DK got the RO Dungeon Boss ouo he was a PAIN to kill in the Master level.. hate to see what the next level does ;0; Echidna's one skill kept freaking me out, my board would go all black and then Poofs! its back to normal.. not use to that x'D

[Coda]

... Echidna has blind resist? ... Why have I never seen it fire. XD

Edit: I guess maybe it's just because I haven't taken my fire team into a dungeon with blind, and she hasn't been on my healer team since it went mono-light.

Why not?

[Coda]

It uses some sort of function that's only available on actual Android hardware. I don't know the specific details, but GungHo is pretty paranoid about cheaters so the game may just be detecting the emulator and force-quitting itself. (It certainly does that if it detects you have Xposed installed.)

What is Xposed? o.O I've never heard of it before.

ouo she does, now if only it would be like.. 50% or more xD

I did a dumb abd received the TAMADRAs from the mail, and now I'm out of space. Again.

Looks like the only unit I have with Awakened skills is Valk. Is she worth using the TAMADRAs on?

[Demonskid]

i would say so, coda said that valks are always good even in end game so i would use a tama on her =)

[Coda]

Valkyrie gets TWO two-pronged attacks when fully evolved and awakened.

Why is this significant? Well, let me do a quick breakdown of how the damage mechanics work.

When you match three orbs, that makes your monster do an attack dealing 100% of its ATK stat, minus the enemy's DEF stat. Additional orbs added to this match increase the damage by 25%, so a typical five-orb mass attack does 150% ATK to all enemies, minus DEF.

Normally, then, matching four orbs deals 125% ATK to a single enemy.

If you have Two-Pronged Attack, you add 50% to that multiplier. Additional TPA awakenings add that multiplier multiple times, so 2xTPA means matching four orbs deals 225% ATK to two enemies, and 3xTPA (currently the highest found in the game) is 275% ATK. When you trigger the TPA bonus, if there's more than one enemy on the screen, your monster will add a second monster to its list of targets.

A 5-match ("mass attack") adds all monsters on the screen to the monster's list of targets.

If you make multiple matches of the same color in a round, the damage is added together, plus every combo you make adds 25% to your final damage. This final damage is dealt to every monster in the list of targets So making two 3-orb matches would deal 225% ATK damage to one monster, compared to one 6-orb match dealing 175% (100% + 3 extra orbs * 25%) to all monsters.

This means that if you have two TPA awakenings, you deal as much damage to two monsters with one 4-orb match as you would make against a single monster with two 3-orb matches.

Additional examples:

3-match + 3-match: 100% + 100% + 25% = 225% damage to one enemy
3-match + 5-match: 100% + 150% + 25% = 275% damage to all enemies
1xTPA, 4-match + 3-match: 175% + 100% + 25% = 300% damage to two enemies
1xTPA, 4-match + 4-match: 175% + 175% + 25% = 375% damage to two enemies
1xTPA, 4-match + 5-match: 175% + 150% + 25% = 350% damage to all enemies
2xTPA, 4-match + 4-match: 225% + 225% + 25% = 475% damage to two enemies

EDIT: An additional note: No matter how many combos you make, no matter how big your matches are, no matter how many TPAs you have, enemy defense only gets subtracted once, to a minimum of 1 damage. This means that high-defense monsters have to be defeated by a single large attack that overcomes its DEF; two monsters hitting the monster for damage even slightly less than its DEF will only do 2 damage.

One final note: TPA applies to the monster's sub element as well, which acts as a second independent attack as if it were another monster with an ATK of 10% (sub element same as main) or 30% (sub element different than main) of the dual-element monster's stat. This second attack (and its TPA) can hit different monsters than the main attack (and its TPA) if the main attack kills one of those targets.

-stares at coda's wall of text- o3o

hello anime -wonders off- ouo,

[Espy]

Oh okay, that makes sense. So I'll keep Valk on my team later on. Maybe not as leader -- unless I have more than two healers or something. I need to check if she gets a sec. attribute later.

Also, these are my current units...

[Coda]

She becomes Healer / God on her ultimate evolution, picks up a Light sub-element, and her leader skill expands to be 3xATK to Healer and God types.

Fairlio there becomes Dragon / Healer and is a fantastic sub on a healer team.

Echidna and Siren are fairly easy to land. They've got a really low (2%?) drop rate from the normal dungeons they're bosses in, but they occasionally have coin or special dungeons with a 15 stamina cost that give them a much higher drop rate. Siren works a little better than Fairlio on a team with blue Valkyrie just by virtue of also being blue but Fairlio has better HP; meanwhile, you've seen us praising Echidna recently. :P

Edit: That said, Valkyrie Reine's uvo requires an Extreme King Metal Dragon, which is a 99-stamina dungeon that's EXTREMELY hard unless you have the right team (I really hope that the Droidragon dungeon runs again soon...) so don't hold your breath for it -- you won't be able to even see the dungeon for a long time.

[Demonskid]

99 stamina? D8 DK won't see it for a while yet either!

ECHIDNA IS AWESOMES!
