    Puzzle & Dragons The oddities of Monster Name Search

    The oddities of Monster Name Search

    Posted: 15 Aug 2020 07:33 AM PDT

    In response to u/DarkDracoPad 's post about SRevo RaDragon not appearing when searching for 'ra dragon' I looked further into it, and here is my best theory.

    ​

    Name search finds the letters you typed in to the box, as long as they are in order and have fewer than three random characters between them.

    ​

    Using 4425, Firedragon King Tyrannos as an example

    ​

    Search Match Outcome
    FIRE FIREdragon works
    FEAN FirEdrAgoN works
    FIRN FIredRagoN doesn't work
    ONK firedragON King works

    This works even if the match is found in more than one place in the word

    ​

    Search Match Outcome
    RANN firedRAgoN kiNg tyrannos\1]) works
    RANN firedragon king tyRANNos\2]) works (same search as above)
    RANNG firedRAgoN kiNG tyrannos works
    RANNO firedragon king tyRANNOs works

    ​

    The big question then is why doesn't

    "super reincarnated RA DRAGon" work to find Srevo RaDra

    It appears that when you search a sequence that appears more than once in a word, the game goes with the first match. For example, searching for tyrannos using 'RANN' is going to match [1] and not [2] from the table above.

    ​

    In the ra dragon case, that means that 'RADRA' actually matches

    "super reincaRnAteD RA dragon" and NOT "super reincarnated RA DRAgon"

    ​

    If you have some way of stopping the game from finding the first match, it works as expected. In this case, searching for 'T RA DRAGON' works because the game has to match the second sequence, and can't use the first one.

    Searching for 'RA DRAGON' should force the game to jump to the second match in the name, the one that works, but in this case the search gets stuck with the first match it found.

    As u/Esperstron pointed out, this is likely due to the overlap between the two matches. It appears that once letters of the name are used for a first match, they aren't checked again for a second match.

    So as you type out your search 'RA DRAGON' the game matches 'RADRA' and ignores that part

    "super reincaRnAteD RA dragon"

    when you add 'G' to the search, the game sees that it isn't within 3 letters of the already matched part, and 'radrag' doesn't appear anywhere else in the word if you ignore the crossed out section. This is why the search fails.

    ​

    A second example is any of the draconic orchestra cards.

    ​

    Search Match Outcome
    CONS ... draCONic Songster works
    CONS ... draconiC sONgSter works (same as above, so the first match is used instead)
    CONSO ... draCONic SOngster works
    CONST ... draconiC sONgSTer doesn't work because the match for 'cons' from above is ignored
    ONS ... dracONic Songster works
    ONS ... draconic sONgSter works (same as above, so the first match is used)
    ONST ... draconic sONgSTer works. despite the earlier match, there is no overlap

    This is just an educated guess, and any other theories or counter-examples are encouraged!

    What teams are you using to S-rank King Devitama?

    Posted: 15 Aug 2020 08:12 AM PDT

    I tried and failed a couple of times going for a LuBu team I saw on Youtube. Seems difficult because you need poison immunity, jammer immunity, VDP, and to somehow S rank while covering these awakenings.

    Of the new upcoming cards for trade, who has more value: Dyer or Summer Planar?

    Posted: 15 Aug 2020 06:23 AM PDT

    I still haven't seen how an ideal summer planar team would look like so let's assume a pretty deep box that can put together most of the ideal subs for both Dyer and Planar.

    Since both events are likely to happen this month, what should one target if considering a trade?

    [NA][Event] v18.4 Maintenance on Wednesday 8/19, 6pm UTC-8

    Verse, Nyx, and Void

    Posted: 15 Aug 2020 06:36 AM PDT

    So with the maintenance coming up soon, I figure it's about time to finally Evo some of these cards to save me some rainbow medals. I know I would ideally make 4 of each, but they are all base formed and unskilled, so it will be a lot of work.

    Thoughts on where I would get the most value? Is one card noticably more useful than the others, and how many should I really go for?

    I saw that my very first pull in pad was Amon and it made me feel very nostalgic, I made this account in 2016, which really seems like a lifetime ago. Who was your first pull and where were you in that time of life? Also what made y’all pick up pad?

    Could use a friend with NY ganesha and dungeon drop assist. I have a few NY gan friends but no dungeon drop, at least for today and tomorrow the dungeon drop.
