Still thanks for the great game!
Glad to hear you like it!

I don't know how far you are right now, but later on, some Dungeons can take quite a bit of time to complete.

Luckily, you only need an internet connection for certain things: entering/exiting Dungeons, changing your team, using the Egg Machines, managing Friends, etc.

If you want, you can queue up a Dungeon when you have internet, then go where you plan to go and play till your hearts content. Unfortunately, you can't leave the dungeon until you are safely back online.

Hope that helps!

I just got through the temple of trials and am in the vulcan volcano. I have only gotten one pull from the rare egg machine (used my next 5 magic stones to upgrade my monster box capacity) and gotten complete junk from my 3 PAL egg machine pulls (only been playing 3 days).

So my team is my first rare egg machine pull (mystic light knight), my starting red dragon evolved once, and then 3 carbuncles (two of which I have evolved once).

EDIT: beat the volcano last night... kept playing it though instead of moving on to the next stage as it was double coins... that let me really upgrade my team. Played the Echnida level 20+ times (thank you rank ups giving stamina back) but sadly didn't get her to drop an egg. And now I need to farm the temple of trials for dragon plants. Have been having bad luck getting eggs off those guys too. I need to make my dragon bigger though :- )

So overall I imagine I'm about where is to be expected for 3 days in. I'll keep plugging away and hoping to get a better pull on my next rare egg pull (yeah I won't be buying any magic stones). That will be a bit though as I just spent my last 3 magic stones upgraded me monster box capacity even more...

So does that mean I can only do one dungeon run between internet connections? Because a lot of those last only a few minutes for me... If I could redo the same level over and over and grind away stuff before reconnecting, then that would help a lot... but only doing one dungeon run doesn't help too much. I appreciate the tip none the less though!

Yeah in this case it does mean 1 run per internet connection. Later on, this wont be so bad since the more challenging special event dungeons can take quite a bit of time.

Glad to hear you are enjoying the game!

For some great resources check out our official Facebook as well as the fantastic fan-made forums and database.

Note: a lot of users may try to convince you to "reroll" to get a better starting free Rare Egg Machine Monster. I've always found this more trouble than it's worth, but some swear by it. I got a pretty bad pull my first time too, and then a pretty good one once I saved up a few more stones. I've personally never regretted not re-rolling.

(re rolling is basically deleting and redownloading the game - hoping that when you finish the tutorial you get something amazing)
