I'm sure there's tons I don't know. But what is becoming very evident is that you have to pay (a lot) to get anything remotely good. And what's even the goal of the game? Once you assemble an amazing group of monsters, what then? You just dive into deeper and deeper dungeons, and if/when you die, you have to pay to continue just so you don't lose the gold/eggs you've acquired in the run. It's a giant money sink with nothing meaningful to show for it. You can't even pvp to show off your amazing monsters. What am I missing?

After reading a little, sounds like you nailed it Asano!

Reminds me of Wayne's World:

Vanderhoff: Zantar is a gelatinous cube that eats warriors in a village. If you eat a chieftain, you go up a level. Beauty is, you can't get to the next level, kids keep coughing up quarters.

Rob Lowe: Gelatinous cube eats village. It's terrific. I know nothing about video games.

Russell: I found that riveting.

I'm not trying to knock the game or anyone playing it. Just trying to understand what I'm playing towards. At least with something like Clash of Clans -- another pay-to-win game -- there is pvp and leagues that you work towards.

You're pretty much right, but its not as bad as you think. Yes you do it all just for you. Tho with the friend thing you can "Share" your guys with other ppl to use. But it is just building up your team based on there skills and power to achieve the team you want. There are a lot of different play styles which is achieved by your team. But really its just about building up your team and progressing. Thats what is fun to me.

As far as spending money goes. You do not have to spend anything. There are a lot of non-IAP'ers who have really good teams and are really far. Its all about the events. There are lots of events that will give out a magic stone a day for say 7 days (one is starting on friday see http://www.puzzledragonx.com/). These plus the stones you get for clearing the dungeons give you a lot. You need to use a decent amount on your bags but you will have enough to roll for gods. You want to roll during a godfest event. This gives the listed gods 3x drop rate and you will get a decent amount of them. I think we all spent some money so far but it doesnt have to be the constant money sink that you're thinking of.

The main goal is the special dungeons. They will have special ones that last a day or a week with a rare drop in them. Normally these are really good pets and can't be bought. Once you get a powerful enough team then you can do these. Some of these will even have 100% drop rate if you can complete the instance. They are really good.

It really comes down to stamina management. You get 144 stm every day if you dont let yourself get maxed. Sure people who just spend money can keep refreshing it but you dont need to. When an event is coming up you will get yourself almost a full bar of exp. Let your stm fill up. Then you can burn your stm in it have the exp lvl you and then burn it again. You can do them quite a bit without even using $$. And until you get high lvl. (im lv111 and can still level every day without using stones) it wont really be an issue.

I think if it did have PvP in it then you would def want to be spending more. As it is now you can play the game how you want. If you want to drop money, you can blow through it and have this awesome ass team. Or you can not spend that much. Sure it will be slower but as they say. Its about the journey not the destination.

ya. its the best thing to farm or lvl up at low lvls with, once I get it max lvl it will hit for 10k AOE. but it rly sucks at high lvl shit. you really need to 2x/4x/6x/9x ect atk or the heal/reduced damge leader skills for those. but man at low lvls my kag is insane.

I just got my google nexus 7 and made an alt account. im going to be power lvling it all day/night so it will be constantly refreshed. if you want to get some lvls it should be up most of the time

Normally, I've been using a healer friend which heals for about 1400 after every orb match. I can't touch my newer dungeons w/o him, but the end bosses take sooo long (60-80 turns). With yours, I can blast through them w/o even needing the extra heals. It's nice. =)

if you need more heals ask kz to put his up, it heals for like 3.5k per turn. also nuch has a zombie leader (as long as ur 50% hp a hit that would kill u only takes u to 1 hp)

There are a few mobs u can farm form normal instances:

-Mermaid it evos to a Siren which even the best teams will use. There are 2 other farmable healers dryad and cupid. Both are good but mermaid is by far the best.

-Naga. This has a delay skill which is really useful. Also used still with high level teams. The special naga instance is tomorrow but not sure if you're rdy for it. it can drop in normal instances but they r pretty low.

-Titan. This is an orb charger for a fire team. Really good but not as important as the other 2

You can find the instances they drop in at http://www.puzzledragonx.com/en/normal-dungeons.asp


also the best exp/stm ratio till atleast lvl 50 is Dragons of the Tower inside Tower of Giants. On the weekends it gets 1/2 stm and is even better
