Having trouble with PVP?

Hunter Island PvP

Right, I feel ya. Your best bet would be to kill Halopard ASAP. Then you’re going to want to damage accordingly. Matchups are INCREDIBLY important in these scenarios. I’d go for Kami if and only if you have a dracobane or wind element. Otherwise, you’ll want to stall and damage the other arks - especially the healers - until the Reinforce runs out (500-1000TU, hasn’t been officially confirmed). If Shadowstalker’s in the picture, you’re really in the bind. You’ll want to run Siesta for recovery, protect and detonate with minespider, set up a large dracobane chain, or maybe set up a terrorfish counter. Whatever’s available to you at the time.

In what way? We’re happy to help :slight_smile:

While I agree with much of your team, Stegospike somewhat bothers me. Stego is a FANTASTIC ark, but it will be nerfed in the next update. At the very least, it gets drastically changed. Therefore, I’d personally refrain from using it. With that being said, it’s entirely up to you. It is currently an effective monster to use. Anyways, I’m not sure if I like the whole Barricadus and Scorpionix thing…another scorpi will KILL you.

How about…

Shadowstalker

Chopper

Grem

_whatever_

Barricadus

_heavy hitter_

The purpose of this is to allow you to guard with barri, while dealing good amounts of damage. If a holy ark comes out, you should scapegoat shadowstalker. A healer is recommended as well, although Mossgolem is preferable.

Then…

Triphoon

Halopard

Scorpionix.

…yep. Halopard is there to haste and reinforce, giving a HUGE boost to your best monsters. Trust me, it’s helpful

then you should have another strategic section…

Goldenhorn

Subzeratops

-insert your team here-

Last will ftw! It’s a great setup at the end…but there is one exception. Destructor will KILL you. As soon as you get better arks, replace some. Feel free to come with questions when the need arises.

Sorry for the incoherent thoughts. midnight, I’m sick, I’m tired…bleh.

262

Thanks Tib. I’ll try it out after the OM today. Hopefully I get home from my errands in time!

263

kk. Tell me if you have any questions. It should work…I’ve used this particular lineup, and variations of it, in the past.

264

So I got Terrorfish only through a Fevered gold mission egg (sweet!) because I had to start late. Since I rarely get fevers I tried my luck and also got an Infernowyrm (grade S) and Meowzard (grade A). Thoughts on those two arks? I like Terrorfish but his Volatile seems to worked in a weird way to the stun skin bug. Sometimes it clears the board and sometimes it doesn’t…

BTW, I like that Halopard, Triphoon, Scorpionix pairing! 

265

It doesn’t guarantee a “clearing of the board.” It does a specific range of damage, and some monsters have the strength to withstand the attack, and some don’t and die…unless you’re talking about a bug I haven’t heard of.

And grats on the egg wins! infernowyrm is pretty good. It’s great when it’s bolstered or reinforced. Add a risky healer to it, and it’s fantastic. 

Feel free to use it as a heavy hitter.

I don’t recommend Meowzard. It has limited use, and pales in comparison to other monsters.

266

Okay, sorry for double posting…but I can’t delete a post anyways, so there really is no option…honestly, there’s no reason that I can think of for preventing members from deleting their own posts.

Anyways, that’s not why I’m here…I’m just wondering why this was unpinned? 

But meh, anything’s chill.

267

I think we need to combine all leagues…a bad string of defeats, lost connections (NY’s concrete jungle, thank you very much) and defeat bugs put me down at rookie and there is no one to PVP.  If you combine the leagues, those without very many strong arks will get a higher diamond output (250 vs 4, for example) albeit many more defeats, and teams with a mixed bag (me) will be able to find players more quickly.

268

Rubiary, that would be unfair to players with no exclusive arks. If all leagues were combined a kami user could destroy someone who just started the game.

269

Hi tiberius,

Im relatively new to the game and pvp, and I started using the “strength is not exclusive” team from your other pvp strategy page, seeing as how the only OM I have is Gigarock. However, I still find myself losing a good portion of PVP matches. Any suggestions?

thanks :slight_smile:

270

Ah, yes…I remember that team…You see, the problem with the reaaallly old teams is that certain monsters didn’t exist. Get what I’m saying? The game is constantly changing, and as a result…we need to adapt! Like I said a long while back, the warehouse was supposed to be more of an archive…for reference, and for use if need be…this thread was supposed to be the big deal, as it’s not just me in here…

Well…Gigarock is a fantastic monster! I think you should work on making it the highlight, as it’s…well, just freakin awesome! Mind posting the rest of your noteworthy-monsters?

271

Alright cool :slight_smile: yeah sure no problem! I have 100% ark catching competion or whatever it is so i have all the arks in the game to use other than any OM or egg arks and the starters other than glazio, however like i mentioned I have Gigarock and now I got lucky on the Last OM and have a titanwyrm :smiley: So i generally use these monsters in PVP:

ark wing

chopperbug

metalloidus 

magmawyrm

pyroviper

luxknight

barricadus

nilomoth

plasmorex

typhonwyrm

halopard

omegawyrm

raioh/raijin

angelon

don penguini

my other notable arks (in my opinion) are:

gigaarock

titanwyrm

all 4 fully levelled hatchlings

shadowlance

leviathan, raptorex and the other semi-rare dragon arks

nilox

glazio

voltiger

fireheart

gremknight

flamogun

the battle arena and some pvp reward monsters (excluding vegitiger and anubis)

Thanks for your help :smiley:
