Liamland 685 Posted March 2 20 hours ago, Brother Jaybird said: So I took a whack at the dragonlord (hero) level today on multi and wow was he tough. The group had a combo meal set up (one each of the non-metal slime dumplings you get as event food combined into a King Slime dumpling? I forget what it was called, but we got an additional 90% stun resistance and 60 luck for it). Dude roasted us. I got dragon armor pants in an early draw which gave me dark breath resistance, but holy cow was it amazing that we squeaked by with a win. I was hosting an open multiplayer session the other day and someone used a slime emoji asking for someone else to use a slime dumpling to match the rest of ours, so I assumed there was some sort of combo. That's pretty cool. In this case the third person didn't respond, indicating she might not have had a slime, so I just started the battle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brother Jaybird 453 Posted March 2 Finished off the dragonlord (hero) in solo today so that's all my treasure maps filled in but Battracia B, which is just Chapter 8 and the associated sidequests remaining. I might end up fighting the Dragonlord a few more times before the event is out to farm Tantagel equipment. I haven't done the main quest in multi, so that's something to look at, too. 23 minutes ago, Liamland said: I was hosting an open multiplayer session the other day and someone used a slime emoji asking for someone else to use a slime dumpling to match the rest of ours, so I assumed there was some sort of combo.

I've seen a lot of the "Make a combo meal!" speech bubble to convey food choices the group approves of. The food set bonuses are listed in the dragonlord event description in the game, but I can think of two: the King Slime Dumpling I mentioned earlier and a combination of four metal slime dumplings, which creates a set bonus of 300% EXP extra. I haven't seen it myself, but ten bucks says it's called a Metal King Dumpling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been asking on the FB page for QotS, but people give me vague responses about getting it from a tutorial with no details for how to access it. Poking around in the interface I found nothing like that, and no one was able to clarify the exact stage, or if they meant the very first story quest available. Any details are much appreciated. That's the only weapon I want. I currently am wielding a hero spear that I got on day 1, only to find it's not as good as the one from DQIX.

Time to work on missed crowns and vocations I hit this spot this morning, so what I'm doing is basically doing anti-Dragonlord loot runs until I max the Tantagel equipment out, and filling in the minor remaining. I'm also doing some exploration of the planet at large; found a pretty cool sea serpent-looking thing near the middle of the next continent over (Tundrica has a pretty cool castle). I wonder if the Winter Queen is the same enemy from Dragon Quest V. The game has been pretty enjoyable so far; I've pulled back from Pokemon Masters to focus on it so that I'm not getting yanked around by two gacha games. I've hit most of the potential Pokemon Masters had to offer anyway, I had a lot of heavy hitters maxed out, and I don't feel like doing the hundred runs Masters requires of you to get special event stuff, most of which is just stuff you can get during normal gameplay just at decreased rates. I think some time later this week I'm gonna try and schedule a Denizens run on the Dragonlord, see what kinda damage we can do. (Also I want to see what four Metal Slime Dumplings make together). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah, do you remember if it was the daily free metal chest or the paid DQ I & II? Unfortunately, the RNG on the chests is just as bad as it was on the Super Light tombola. Last night I did a 3000 gem 10-pull on the Metal Chest lottery and didn't get a single piece of metal equipment. Edited March 4 by Liamland Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Liamland 685 Posted March 4 Is it timed? I thought it had to do with the number of first meetings. Right now I'm pulling 50 per new multiplayer first meeting, however I used to get 150. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've gotten so many Tantegel sets that way. Could barely get them to drop in Solo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liamland 685 Posted March 4 I noticed that too. There's a better luck factor with drops when there are more multiplayer characters. Yet another thing that reminds me of DQIX. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
