    So, you got some extra money laying around

    I live about 3 miles from work, and the wife about 1. The $60 for gas is pretty bang on. Food we pretty much shop once a week and it averages $100. Our utilities average about, electric: $120, water: $60, trash: $15, gas: $15 (in the winter, our gas goes up to around $80, but our electric...

    I'll throw up my Mariudeth. Just unlocked his SBB (only lvl 2). Might help out, Wuyley. Can do a water crit team. Edit: SBB is up to 5.

    So, you got some extra money laying around

    I was just showing how you can easily live on that much money. My age 42 retirement goal allows us to withdraw $40k a year after taxes, which leaves plenty of room for cars. As far as a house, that's definitely a goal. As you can see, I said we have $80k gross income right now. What's left...

    So, you got some extra money laying around

    I forgot I had posted in this thread and didn't check it until today. While my goal is retirement at 42, like Khane said, it's more like what Mr. Money Mustache has which is semi-retirement. I basically want financial independence where if one day I decide I don't want to go to work anymore I...

    I think this is just slightly better. Seems to be about a 50/50 split on healer and support drops. Both this and the Mistral dungeon seem to drop a unit slightly under 1 per energy used (maybe 70%?). The Morgan dungeon is 5 energy compared to 3 for Mistral (and the Earth Shattering Spear one is...

    Does anyone have a favorite dungeon to run for healer fodder? I've been doing Puppeteer of the Trees (Mistral, Forest dungeon 2) which seems to drop about 60% support, 20% attack, and 20% healer. My support units (Exvehl and Oulu) are both just about maxed, so I'm looking for something that just...

    You said 5-6 years. Putting him at 42-43 years old. Manning is currently 38. You think he'll still be around in 4 years? Hell, 2 years? Warner was 38 in his last season (37 in his last Super Bowl performance, same as Manning). Favre was 41. Montana was 38. I could see Brady and Manning...

    It's cool and all that he maywantto play for 5-6 more years (I've never seen this though?), but he's already 37. Even most kickers don't last that long.

    Yeah, I saw that guide not too long ago. My concern is that for a lot of the new stuff, you actually need a lot of those lower items. And it sucks going back to farm them. An example is I'm farming the shit out of the random crap for Sol Creators, which is all throwaway according to that. I'd...

    What's your team name? I was trying to unload Philip Rivers a few weeks ago when he was the #2 QB. He's dropped to #8, but that's still good considering his awful performance the other week.

    Considering how bad I am at this game, I'd say it'll take me more than that. I see all these people with sub-par teams 0 geming Vargas and I got smoked on it. That may be part of the problem though, as I tried to emulate a team from Reddit that I pretty much had, and it just didn't work for me.

    So I think tomorrow my goal is to starting maxing SBB's; Exvehl (6 BB), Oulu (5 SBB), Elimo (4 BB), and Zelnite (6 SBB), and BB Grahdens (1 BB). After that, I'll head after Maxwell with Grahdens (lead, Mystic Lantern), Exvehl (Drevas), Oulu (Sacred Jewel), Elimo (Medulla), Zelnite (Providence...

    You 3 fucks are on like a whole different level than the rest of us. I finished up Vargas last night but had to 2 gem it, one on 2nd round, one right before his rez. I really can't wait for this super rate up tomorrow to level up BB's. I feel like that's really holding me back right now.

    Did you use seals? Since you basically used an almost mono team (outside Maxwell), it seems like that'd be a good idea. I'm not sure what team I can go with to compare to that, since you have much stronger water units (Raydn and Lucina). My water units are Oulu Elimo Mariudeth Kuhla...

    Had my first dominating arena victory finally. I've been coming close a lot but was always just barely short on one SBB. I should also mention that this team is pretty ridiculous right now. Undefeated and it's never even close. I also had an 84 seconds remaining victory a while ago, but...

    LOL at that video. "Why I not die? I fucking pay!" That is a pretty sad indictment of the game though. It highlights what really pissed me off about this game the most, and that's that it's a monthly sub game with a P2W cash shop on top of it. It's awful.

    Yeah, I really need a rate up event. Mostly because I find leveling BB's to be the grindiest part of the game. I can run like 15-16 regular parades if I time it with levels, so those are going faster. I had a really awesome run today for Mariudeth where I had 4 crystals and about 4 or 5 gods. It...

    I said if someone gets the drop on me. It doesn't really matter though. I'm pretty sure I'm done with this game. It's just boring as fuck. I keep logging in thinking I'll do something, but I find myself not caring at all. Each day that goes by my desire to log in is less and less.

    Nope, that's pretty much it. You can troll around Reddit and find other people giving their input, but there's nothing as complete as that (the long term tier list is basically a reddit product). Your other option is Ushi, but I think he's mostly a JP player. He does play global too, but I...
