Am I missing something?

It is certainly making for some very long battles.

The "GAP" as hold mentioned in other posts is getting bigger between newer players and the ones with big pile of Iron Coins...
I still manage to beat those teams but am sure that this is gonna change very soon ;P

Can't take the credit for that as it was slauki and others being concerned about that matter and it's of course true.

I want to find out for now how fair the drop rates are and if they are rigged or not. A lot points in the direction that they are manipulated.

I had a couple of fights again shaolinlondo in the arena and his team they don’t fucking die his team is ve, Astra, gpd, sentinel Mayan I’ve used all my iron coins I was able to buy global attack level 10 and level 5 warrior attack I’m bringing Samurai, wngol, GPD ,Crimson dog it just take too long to defeat them I’m even using hunter talismans- anyone knows why?

I’ve got some fights against him and definitely he’s running on high HP, MR,DEF I did a couple of revenge and got bore fighting this guy that I just quit the fight and let him win it was too much time but eventually I have to get a team to go faster against those teams especially for the arena events no one last more than 3 rounds

GPD and the (S)Mayan Priestess aren't' exactly the strongest attack team in my opinion. That dog, most often, helps people far LESS than what they think. Reducing damage your team takes means little if you can't reduce the HP of the other team.

have to disagree man, the dog sometimes ANNOYS me to death, but that's all yeah. only hope is that the def is so annoying that you skip it ...

Same here. It is not just the damage reduction, the GPD also heals and grants the entire team immunity. I use him a lot, but you certainly need a hard hitter or 2 to go along with him.

The really annoying thing about the dog is an Angel+Energy combo. Makes killing it really endearingly annoying, especially since seal, what ought to be a proper counter to such a tactic, doesn't work.

or passive disable which seems useless vs him...

[Yup]

Heal block.... that works.

Long fights indeed. That might change after the rest of us catch up on relics though.
