You make some very good arguments. Like you I had worked very hard at collecting tokens and spent a good amount of gems to get Dunn Ra ranked. It would make no sense for me to stop using her even if Mephisto is "better" than her.

This is also the reason why I passed on getting Hookuai because I had spent alot of time and money getting Gorg ranked.

For that reason and the fact that I have few good thunder monsters - rank 3 VoltaiK as my main attacker, rank 1 VoltaiK as my secondary attacker and Storm Beard as my denier. I have Neobuki, Francine Frank and Inquisitor Fulmen, but don't like using them. I needed another good thunder attacker or denier that fits my playing style so I decided on getting Volthar.

I bought Saulot and thought he was underwhelming after I ranked him up a bit. So I am happy and surprised that his pet is much better than him in almost all areas. SP got it wrong again...but what can we do.

Your comments regarding Alpha Cliviast are spot on. Many people give him hate because he is an older monster and they don't know how to use him properly and feel that he only has one "good" skill. The 3 turn death countdown is a great skill but can be easily countered. What perplexes me the most about Pierceid is her other skills - curse, CDAs, AoE possession, and nightmares. These are not new skills, but rather skills taken from several great deniers and put in one monster. This is akin to Sunblast being an upgraded Al Canine who can do AoE possession.

I fully expect that once everyone gets Wyrmlad ranked up that SP will release a better monster than him that can be acquired more easily and for much less money. That is the way of the SP. They like to frustrate us, but they do it lovingly.
