Bring a shield and use it before you finish off sowilo. Diza, Susano, Golem, etc etc

Alternatively, IAP out the ass and buy a billion dark resists.

Once I put Vishnu in my Bastet team I did not fail Zaerog at all. Fail rate went from 10 percent to zero. Making the 6 combos was easy... Not having green orbs drop when in some cases I'd hit a 12 combo was rage inducing though as there was literally no way to prevent death. Skill delay resist latents on Ra would make this a joke...

Also max skilled Halloween Kali after 26 angelits. Not too bad.

I can survive a 31 l Hera Preempt with my vanilla Firecat team because eof OP dark resist. The 38k from C10 just flat needs a shield. Or find some way to get my Firecat team to about 30500 hp.. (it's generally at 29790.)

I tried Hera once, fucked up on beroc, failing to kill her fast enough (messed up activation) so my diza shield ran out when i was on swelio (one shotted) so i ate the full pre-empt

also, i should get me a z8. I legit could make a scary z8 team of z8, a.haku, satsuki, diza, something (persephone? a.yomi?)?

you'd probably want ayomi as the lead instead of z8 with that team

Having played both, there are still pros to playing Z8 over Yomi

Pros:

Double haste leaders are really really strong
You'll get skills back up in no time and with his ideal subs being haste subs, Diza shield is up all the time
This lets tanking a breeze even without latent resists (looking at you Parvati and every dark absorb nonsense)

Z8 has better raw stats
The 1.21x multiplier actually makes a nice difference
More HP that gets even better with plus eggs (although Yomi has high hp too)
Z8 recovery is also pretty good.
Yomi on the other hand has a really hard time recovering

Z8 is much much easier to play
Making 5 orb then 7 combos is not easy
Even though you have a lot of time extends, this still proves to be difficult unless you have good skills

Z8 has better damage spike (potential)
While Yomi has better average damage, Z8 can spike super hard if you need him to
And with Z8 active up all the time, skillfalls can really rack up the damage
Not saying Yomi has bad damage at all, but Z8 can really crunch up those numbers with ease

Cons:

Hugely dependent on orb changer
Unfortunately you need dark orbs, and a lot of them to do any meaningful damage.
Minimum atleast 9 to do damage
10~11 = good damage
12+ = OHKO (almost) every boss territory
(this is looking like some riichi mahjong point guide lol)
A Yomi only needs 5 to clear floors
This is helped with the double haste+skyfall leads, but for long dungeons, such as Arena, it can really end your run with dark orb droughts

Less damage control
X4 -> x16 -> x36 is a huge range
Adding tpa to x4 or lack of tpa to x16 or something like that is usually the way to go
Z8 damage control is not too bad, but Yomi's is way superior
And skyfall can ruin it hard

Not as consistent as Yomi
Not like any leader is free from orb trolls and bad rng, but as mentioned earlier Z8 needs 9+ orbs to do damage
Yomi only needs 5
This is a huge difference and one that requires constant use of actives.
Z8 haste system alleviates this pretty well, but not a whole lot can beat Yomi in consistent damage with minimal resources.

All things considered Z8 is still great lead
It's still my go to for descend farming as honestly, for the skills required, the damage is way too good

The solution is.... YomiDra, has best of both word, plus unbindable + heartmaker.

I'll be running YomiDra until Awoken Sakuya comes out St any rate. I have the ideal subs for it.

You should really wait for 2.5x skill up

Skill ups are struggle enough already ;_;

Spoiled.

Back in my day everything had to be evod and only with 2x! Like walking both ways up hill in the snow.

No but seriously the skill up system is, in my opinion, a horrid flaw in this game. It's so shitty and just anti fun.

2x should still be 20%.
With horrid rates like I already got, I honestly doubt that the extra 5% would change much.
so angry.
Waited all this time for urd's skill up to come up and now i spent all my fruits and couldn't even get 3 friggin levels to finish my hyper.

Yea that 20% is just low enough that you can be utterly screwed so very easily.

That 5% changes it from 1 in 5 to 1 in 4. It actually does tend to make a substantial difference.

In my base it would be not 1 in 5 to 1 in 4 but it would be, from 1 in 27 to approx 1 in 22, which still sucks balls
