Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

Man 1-6 Hellmode is stupid. It's almost luck whether or not you can even beat it. If the enemy decides it's going to spawn 4-6 projectile immune/tank guys in a row, they just start piling up and become unstoppable. There's nothing you can even do at that point unless maybe you're all max leveled. It's so frustrating to keep getting to midfield and have 6-8 immune tank bastards piled up just sweep my team all the way to killing or near killing my tentacle.

I have:
Oda, Shadomalice, Minamotono, Jean, Elfella,
Cleo, Hybrider, Comet, Dharma Yuki

All evolved and level 20-40. I think the only way I could improve my team other than max leveling them all is replacing Dharma Yuki, but my other Minamotono/Comet are only level 1. I tried the sniper here but even a mob of them can't knock back a projectile immune enemy. Elfella actually does better since she'll kill them if they're vulnerable and wastes the non projectile immune mobs.


Guess it's time to level my other Minamotono. I gotta say, having this huge melee wall team is pretty fun. They sure are vulnerable to aoe enemies though.
Yep, Nishiki doesn't work as well as she did before the update. Alright, this is going to be tldr so you've been warned. And this is based on my tests so its up to you whether you'll use it or not, but I do hope it helps. :D

A mistake you made in your team composition is that it consists of cards that has long cool down. They're strong but keep in mind that mobs in the extra stage are pretty buff and they come in groups, so you need to put into account strength as well as numbers/speed of summoning girls. I've compiled some tips that I used and tested that works really well. :)

First of all, my Tentacle Character stats are as follows: Roster Slots is at level 9, Summon Points Cap is at level 8 and Summon Point Regen is at level 9. I also used the Buffing skill that you get at level 35. It's at level 8.

I'm only going in depth with Extra Stage Area 1 since Extra Stage 1-6 is really hard. Though, as a general rule of the thumb I used on all three is that I kept atleast two cards that has low cool downs as fodders, which in my case, Orqua and Henjin Hunter K. Here's the team I used for 1-1 to 1-6.

Row 1: MinamotonoYoshitsune x 2, Sarutobi Sasuke, Orqua, Henjin Hunter K.
Row 2: (Filler, though in my case I used White Black.), Elfella, Caesar, Cleopatra.

When the battle starts -whether its the beginning or restart after failing the boss humiliation/assault, do not summon girls one at a time. Wait until you have enough points to summon them in groups or better yet, all of them at once. Once you start summoning, keep spamming the two low cool down cards that you're using while your points accumulate. And when your better cards are available, summon them but keep up the low cool down card spam since your girls will keep dying. Do not summon too many Elfellas and Caesar/Ranged Girls. When I did my runs, I kept around three Elfellas and two Caesars at all times, replacing them when one of them dies. And as a last tip, spam the tentacle skill when it comes up. The buff really makes a huge difference. I had an easier time using the buff than the meteor when I did my tests.

As for Extra Stage Area 2, bringing two Jeanne and two Elfellas worked pretty well. You can bring anyone else but those two are essential on making the runs easier. Just need to watch out for the bazooka spam, which is why you need two Jeannes to keep the sheild up. :)

Extra Stage Area 3 is the easiest. Any combination works as long as you have fodders to keep the pressure up. Just need to watch out for the blonde ninjas, they hit very hard.

Hopefully, these tips will help you on completing the extra stages. :)

Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

Did a little math on probabilities of using R extensions if anyone is interested.

0 R extensions used: 95% chance of failure on R every spin (60% for 10 spins)
1 R extensions used: 90% chance of failure on R every spin (35% for 10 spins)
2 R extensions used: 85% chance of failure on R every spin (20% for 10 spins)
3 R extensions used: 80% chance of failure on R every spin (11% for 10 spins)

I was going to add another part, and I found I made a silly mistake, lol. Why I try to do math when I'm sleepy is beyond me. Oh I was kind of right, just to a much lesser degree lol. I thought that maybe using 1 R extension 3 times might be better than using 3 r extensions once + 0 R extensions two times.

3 R extensions x 1 + 0 R extensions x 2 = 0.038492132820527061189996135424
1 R extensions x 3 = 0.042391158275216203514294433201

I wonder if that even matters. Probably not, haha. Conclusion is that it doesn't really matter how many R extensions you use at a time, it all ends up the same if you have the same amount of them. I also found out that you can copy and paste into the default windows calculator, that sure makes things easier.

Yeah she's gacha only. Her training image terrified me too badly to use her, I threw her out, lol. I just obtained a new one and kept her this time though. Her attack damage at max level unevolved is one of the highest at 81. Evolved at max level it probably remains similarly impressive but the wiki hasn't mapped it out yet. She's probably one of the best R duelists available. Not sure how she'd fair against multiple enemies though.

Edit:
Meh, she's pretty slow. In movement speed she's one of the worst, and I stop watched her attack speed at a bit over 4 seconds, which is also on the slow side of things. I wouldn't use her even if her obedience training cg didn't terrify me, lol. Guess I'm tossing her again. All that damage and crit won't help if she's picked apart by mid range attackers and lags behind the rest of my team. No multi hitting ability either. She seems to have a weakness to a certain enemy being on the field too.


On a side note: I beat 1-6 finally. Minamotono is OP. She isn't even evolved yet and my 2nd one helped me wreck that level. Cleared all Hell Mode stages now, yippy. 2-6 of Hell Mode makes me want Zero Zero so badly. Does anybody have her? How is she?

Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

Zero Zero is pretty decent. Long range and has the fastest projectile travel animation out of all the ranged chars. She moves very slow though. Her range is about the same as Elfella. She's good to have, but you're not missing out much by not including her in your team.

Ah, good to know, thanks. I'm testing out Yarma atm. I have a feeling she isn't that useful but she's cute. I can't find any mid range girls that compete with Gaius Ilius Caesar. Anybody know any girls that are as useful as her? I haven't tested any or noticed any on the wiki that seem as good. I've had all the R ones up to at least level 20 and they seemed kinda meh. I didn't level any of the N ones that high though and certainly haven't found an SR one yet. Murakumo Ten seems amazing though~


Wow I just ate some of my old leveled R/N cards that I don't use anymore and went from level 47 and 10% to 49 and 60%. Might be worth leveling up cards a bit before you eat them~ I think I might start putting trash R cards in my spare slots while I'm farming for a bit before I eat them.

I must just suck at the mini game, but is there any way to make it easier? Those blues are a bitch.

Not really, with practice you usually get faster. If you didn't know though, it counts a hit when you release the mouse button, not when you press the button down. So holding the mouse down constantly and releasing it on time is better. The hit detection seems bad if you're always trying to just click on it quickly without having the button already held down.

One thing to note is that the tentacle can be anywhere on the heart when you release your mouse button to score, so you don't need to worry about getting it right on the tip. I'm usually already looking at the next hearts when I'm scoring the current one since you don't have to worry much about accuracy. That and maybe try to move the mouse with your whole arm instead of just your wrist. You can usually make bigger moves quicker (and with less wrist strain).

I think you need to share your name, not the referral number. I tried searching it and it didn't work.

It works, good. I'll add you to the main post of players. I can't personally add you just yet since I'm full, but I think I'll have a couple inactive people soon I can delete. Nice Zero Zero btw.

Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

btw, has anyone tried putting some money into the game? I kinda want too but I don't know if I will get some kind of fee for currency exchange. Note that I use USD.

Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

Just tested the level 50 skill because I just hit level 50, hooray for awesome tentacle monster. I used a stopwatch so I was worried it wouldn't be super accurate, but amazingly it was like right on the dot for both effects (I averaged some attempts).

At level 6, the skill seems to increase energy recovery by roughly 1.5, and it decreases wait time by 1.5 as well. This game sure likes its 1.5 modifiers. Jean went from 25 wait time to around 16.5 and my 100 energy recovery time went from around 2.4 seconds to 1.6 seconds. The skill seemed to last around 18-20 seconds as well.

Love this skill now, and it will always be useful since it's a percentage increase and not a flat rate. I haven't really played with any of the damage skills because I was worried about them becoming less useful later.

I mean, I'm pretty decent at Osu! so I just wish the hearts were in sync to music or something.

Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

ugh, these game crashes are becoming more frequent and are really starting to get annoying. Was able to get through 4-5 battles prior to today, but now I'm lucky to get through 1 battle without the sound cutting out (which is a clear indication that the game is about to crash). They need to fix this soon, otherwise its gonna be unplayable. Anyone else experience an increase in game crashes?

Nope, I thought it was actually getting better. I usually refresh the page after 40-60 minutes or so though.

Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

...seriously... what are the maintenance guys doing? i almost in a deep shit situation when i realize my character slots down to 4 because of the damn Bug. fortunately Hybrider save the day against those tanky mobs. no wonder a game this good didnt make it to Top 5 games in DMM because of these annoying Bugs

by the way has anyone try Realizer? she has melee AOE (according to wiki) and gets stat up with Wizarda. i've been farming her for quite some time but damn man.. never i remember getting R late stages would be as hard getting that sixth heaven nobunaga..

Re: [DMM] Tentacles Tactics

Sadly, Realizer is gacha exclusive. So there's no other way to obtain her besides from that for the time being. As for effect, she's very good. Flying, Projectile Shield, and her attack range is fairly huge for a melee - hence I considered her mid range-like. They had this event with the test stages back then that featured her. I farmed it only to find out nothing drops from it. :mad:
