What's the point of X dungeon? (Puzzles and Dragons)

New dungeons are introduced on a very frequent basis, and it can be difficult at first glance to understand why you would run them. Here is a (work-in-progress) list of dungeons and why you'd run them.


  • New Shinrabansho Choco Collab (Chaotic Darkness)
    • Consistently drops Emperor Masterion, which is an odd mix of a poor man's Hera (20% gravity) and Red Sonia (x2 ATK and RCV for devils).
      • Due to average stats and lousy awakenings (other than two-pronged attack), there's no situation where you wouldn't use Hera or RSonia over this guy if you had them available.
      • However, if you lack one or both, this card can get you some mileage.
    • Rare drops King Saiga which is a very mediocre Dragon/God in both stats and awakenings.
    • Key skills ups:
      • Bokkle skills up Drawn Joker, Jester Dragon and is a common drop. It needs to evolve with Wafer Man before doing so, however.
      • Holy Dragon Stone skills up Shiva but is a rare drop. As of October 2014 this is the only way to skill up Shiva without using another Shiva.
    • Secondary skill ups:
      • Izuna skills up Lakshmi
      • Banchak is a common drop and skills up Baal when evolved, but requires Wafer man to do so.


  • Holy Dragon Knight (Ancient Holy Hour)
    • Key skill ups:
      • Shiron can be used to skill up the popular leader Da Qiao & Xiao Qiao (only way to skill them up as of October 2014)
      • Rare drops Light Sprite, Sunrich which can be used to skill up the decent sub Sun Wukong.
      • The boss drop is a mediocre Dragon/Attacker who is unlikely to fit in any lineup.
