    Dragon hunting is actually very character exp inneficient since you can get one unit less total from the map. I'd recommend Flame Dragon once you're able to take it, or Remnant Vanquish 3. Those will give you the most units while still not taking the biggest toll on your gold (Return to Ruins is actually the most efficient, but it will drain your gold like a company going bankrupt).
    Immortal beast is very doable even to 3 star. I did that a long time ago and even have my video of it posted here. It's just that it requires a full team of High level CC units, with enough firepower and survivability to outlast the 3 liches. I think I used 4 healers and a few different tank units as lightning rods for that. Should be much easier now with Karma.

    I'm not concerned with the amount of units given, just exp per unit. I do DH because I can drop two units and afk the rest of it, my gold only steadily rises while farming exp there, and the fodder is level 18. I could farm flame dragon or immortal beast all day, but I'd rather not because I'm a lazy grinder. I'll switch to IB if/when we get auto complete.

    The maps order I have in that guide is the order they are unlocked in, aside from Immortal Beast appearing right away. Just complete them to unlock the next.

    What two units do you drop for Dragon Hunting?

    I start off with Nanaly l35 to clear out the initial spawn, then Katie 30CC30, then two witches (l33 gold and l30 silver) for the dragon that comes out. Then I have to drop a healer l30 to heal up the dragon damage, then a heavy infantry l35 to block the right hand side, then a second healer l30 to keep everyone alive from the wizard / next dragon... a Prince somewhere in there for stats.

    Most recent run was a 2-star because Nanaly let one goblin get away. Harrumph.

    Yeah, not happening anytime soon for me. Got my first gold mage and gold healer this tuesday when i was on my rolling spree. Only got Alyssa, Dorca and Echidna, not surviving 3 liches with that. Can probably give it a try after this event, though, since i do have Immortal Karma. But i'll probably need to level Fedora before i do anything, as well as both my gold mages.

    And two units? I have to place at least 4 of them. Katie, Prince, Cl(ito)ris and Elizabeth. Hope they give us autocomplete soon so i can just press that shiny button.

    I believe it is unlocked after that yes, but not sure, was a long time since i unlocked it.

    If you have a strong enough archer and prince, this is all you need.

    My Spica is 50CC61, but that is stronger than she needs to be for this.

    Interesting. I would have given that one a try if i wasn't constantly doing Flame Dragon since i want to level my units faster. I'll have to try that at some point, though, if i ever am in need of running Dragon Hunting. It tends to happen at the rare occasion where i will level up if i run one DH but not one FD and i am low on charisma. My 50CC50 Daniela is able to solo a dragon in FD so i guess she might be enough.

    Well, if leveled up archers are able to solo a dragon, I guess that does indicate how powerful they are. My Nanaly can't do that yet, she needs a lot of backup (it's the witches on my team who are the actual dragon slayers right now).

    Some day I shall get her leveled up and CC'd, and she will become a(n even more effective) force to be reckoned with! Have 2 platinum fairies now, just need 2 more and a platinum armour. And then a bunch more units to feed to her to get her from 35 to 43.

    Edit: Thought I had 3 silver archers for feeding purposes, only have two extras. Will need to find a third somewhere, too. Oh well. Still, progress!

    I wouldn't use a plat armor on her unless you have 3x black fairies. Otherwise the armor is going to waste. And then you would still need a 4th black fairy to CC her with.

    It really is not as bad as you think it is to level 40 to 50 without a plat armor. I do it ALL the time because it saves me plat armors for later. For Nanaly, she gets a bonus exp from archer fodder, so DH is a really good place to grind for her. In all honesty, once you get to DH, you can grind that and not care about your gold any more. You'll be fine, I promise. As long as you don't try to level units past 50 with only the gold from it. And if it really makes you feel better, then the gold boost in the shop is really not a bad deal if you suffer from empty coffers. It takes the DH reward up to 5,400 gold per run.

    Make Nanaly to 50 your priority. If you don't already have one, then work on Tuesday/Friday dailies until you get at least 1 black spirit. And then use that and 3x silver archers to CC her. Level her up to at least level 40 again after that, and just watch the devastation with her skill activated. You won't regret it. You'll just be mad at yourself for not having done this sooner.

    I'll say this again just to be clear. Don't worry about your gold. Just spend it to level up units without using plat armors. You will be fine if you just grind DH. If you grind anything else then I won't make the same promise.
    Gold has no other use right now than leveling units, or wasting it on the 2k summon. No reason at all to care about how much you have.

    Okay! I will give this a shot. I have pretty much all the other units I use on my main team up to between 30 and 35 now, which seems to be a pretty good level for them, they are able to pretty much hold their own against what I'm running against (though they really had to strain for the Retake the Castle mission, I'm proud that they were able to pull it off! Go team!)

    What would you suggest using platinum armours on, then? Waiting to use them on units that are already CC'd for the upper levels? The guide I read earlier suggested using them to get units to 50 the first time, which is why I was planning on that.
