Samba Ruby Dragon

I don't think anyone uses it, but that's not to say it can't be used. A stall team with the fire archangel Uriel would give this little guy 3200 RCV -- an unheard of value, making up about half to a third of what a team like that needs to keep itself afloat in Hera and Zeus descended level dungeons. The two Uriels themselves provide 2424 a piece, meaning that you're getting, quite literally, over 9000 RCV. Throw in that any fire team is gonna use Echidna and you're looking at easily 10k RCV before combos even come into play, easily clearing Hera Descended with almost zero risk. Granted, Uriel doesn't see use because of his lack of a nuke, so you make want to consider a team with 2/2/4 just to keep the timeframe reasonable. It's a shame we're getting this guy and not ID=485, who would absolutely see use on a Lucy team.

You ever heard of leeks?

I would hold onto him. There are other ways to get red XP. What red doesn't have is a way to get RCV this high on any other creature (main or subtype).

Dark Valk gets to 656 and Echidna to 650, but those are noticeably lower and require maxing a 4 million xp creature.

It can be used in an Enhance Material Team in place of No. 485

Eg

No. 1177
38 Dragon
11 Dragon
11
11
No. 1177

I'm new to PAD and just got this little guy in a REM pull. I was wondering what a Uriel stall team is since I have him too.

Because 38 can be read as "Samba" in Japanese.

in chinese too! :D, except sam ba(in canto) or san ba(in mando) in chinese means dumb idiot .__.

5th highest RCV in the game.

Yes, the dragon is modeled after サンバ, the brazillian dance, but it's a Japanese pun saying that 三八(Not thirty-eight, just three-eight) can also be read as サンバ.
It's just like how よろしく can be written/read as 4649.

Learn Japanese

Except you are wrong. At least partially. You are correct, in that samba is the referring to the dance. But where you are wrong is the pronunciation of 3 8.

It is true that "thirty eight" is san jyuu hachi, but for the word play that is being presented here, it should be read as "three eight". One pronunciation for 3 is san, and one pronunciation for 8 is ba. Since japanese doesn't have an equilent for the singular sound "M", the "N" sound is often used as a stand in. So, 38 (three eight) can be pronounced as sanba, or samba.

Basically, "eight" can be read the following ways in japanese:
yatsu
ya
hachi
ha
ba
eight (eito)

Mostly correct, but in this case the "m" comes from the ん itself - if ん comes before the ぱ, ば, or ま families, it's pronounced as m - hence the occasional romanizations as sempai or tempura. So samba is pronounced as-is in Japanese.

Lol 三発 in the face and ナンパ wit yo mom! (I had to cheat and add a 'tsu' to make 'sanpatsu' though :/)

I like the yoroshiku example, always makes me think of how yakuza comes from the worst hand of hanafuda/oichokabu you can have: 893

Well, all the exp drags aside from the queens do look a bit lacking in mental faculties...

Lol why so much?

Who cares! This game originated in JAPAN, NOT CHINA. Unless you're Chinese or look up to them, no one really cares what it's called in Chinese. The 三八 pun is supposed to be using Japanese words, not Chinese.This reply has been flagged as spam  Show

Actually you are incorrect, in Cantonese we say "Sam sup bot" I'm guessing you main mandarin hence why you lack understandingThis reply has been flagged as spam  Show

Calm down dude..... lol not that seriousThis reply has been flagged as spam  Show

Lol no it can't. "Ba" is not a reading for the kanji "八" the character for eight. 38 in kanji (also how its read with roman numbers) is "三十八" which reads "san jyuu hachi".

The Samba in its name comes from a Brazilian dance where the dancer wears clothing similar to that of the feathers the dragon has on in the picture.This reply has been flagged as spam  Show
