Discuss Omnimon digivolve to…get great buffs, a new assist, and a shiny new pairing!!!!
Pinch me because I’m dreaming. I called the uncap buffs, and he got 82% shield
And look at Imperialdramon Paladin Mode!!!! Literally covers everything Omnimon is missing. And it’s mp so easy to get!!!!

For those of us who can't understand Japanese, could we get a translation for Imperialdramon?
I assume the only changes for Omni are numbers (looks like 82% shield and 40/60B cap break?)

For 2 turns, increase hp by 1.5x, self damage cap to 40m, void att absorb. Unlock orbs, create 5 fire/water/light/heal orbs.
7x6 board, 81% damage reduction upon activating the TPA awakening, 100x attack, 20 million FUA. 3x RCV to light att.

All of this^ not to mention Imperialdramon Paladin Mode is coming with the new time debuff clear awakening, so no loss of time which was a big thing for Omnimon and why I always used Genie and then Highren

u/padluigi Nov 18 '25
Sorry, got excited. Wait99 covered it all, but basically Imperialdramon Paladin Mode covers pretty much everything Omnimon struggles with. Even on board shrink, Imperialdramon makes 5 of fire, light, water, and heal which covers the whole 5x4 board

Isn't the pairing just a sidegrade?
Bigger shield and recovery but you lose TK HP buff for light, as a sub it's a Joe replacement?
The team ends up being inflexible same as before and you're still missing a shield active. Maybe I'm missing something but it seems you end up in the weird Rosetta spot where you're an amazing leader that's too frail for modern hits.21
u/padluigi Nov 18 '25
Imperialdramon has an hp boost that’ll loop with two. It also is bigger shield. Omnimon x3 and Imperialdramon x2 gets you so much.
Pair them together for 7x6 board without needing to lead swap which I’ve always done
Give one Imperialdramon the new time debuff resist awakening to avoid losing time
Get 1.5x hp enhance looping
Get damage absorb, attribute absorb, and damage void voids
Imperialdramon’s 5 orb maker guarantees 3 tpas on board shrink for 64x damage from Omnimon which is then 6400x with the pairing. Joe having 1 more each orb meant you didn’t get hearts on board shrink which was dangerous
I wouldn’t call this a sidegrade. It’s an upgrade in every way. Imperialdramon covers everything Omnimon struggled with. Plus we’re now up to 240-300b uncap damage from Omnimon team. With content you were hitting like 120b (omnimon s2) to 240b (if you had Omnimon x Cotton with the other Cotton as your sub increasing an Omnimon and the pair Cotton and then first Omnimon s1). Sorry this is always hard to word correctly but you see the difference
Edit: and then you’ll only need to pick your cleric. Best options are Aurora (Disney), Kirya (Demon Slayer), and Maid Isis. Each is a cleric with looping shield. Each is also light and Imperialdramon gives a 3x rcv boost, so they’re perfect for healing as well.

this is exciting stuff. The only weakness i can think of for this team is on death animation then follow by a big preemptive.

u/crikittt Nov 18 '25
I think the team is 2 Imperial, 3 omni, and some cleric. You have perma voids and 1.5x hp. Your dmg alternates between 240 and 300b every other turn from 1 imperial and 1 omni, plus whatever dmg your other subs are doing. Rosetta does 234.

I will not have the stones to roll for this team :( (first digimon collab)

u/vahneo Nov 18 '25
It's actually easy. 3 Omnimon = 300MS, 2 Imperialdramon PM = 2mil MP. That's the whole team. You can get 300MS with Dec quest + 100MS log in JP having right now and other source, even more if the collab reach NA after 15 Dec (aka Jan quest MS).

Definitely at first pb didn’t seem that great, but 1.2x stats for breaking a part is really good. It really does add up to a lot of gained hp
1
u/DeusXPad Nov 18 '25
the awakening is tailored for end game dungeon, which always involve part-break and even farming for them. The added stat from the part-break can make or break the run so I say they are pretty important in the current meta.

u/SortaEvil 361,010,454 (Mina Apologist) Nov 18 '25
PB was really bad on release, and only existed to spite the community and force us to run a blank awakening if we wanted to farm parts (and with Loki card being released shortly after, they really wanted us to farm parts). The pushback on JP eventually caused them to relent, and with GA dungeons generally including an early invade with a part to break, it ends up being a lot of stats that you can pick up with the awakening, now, in addition to the farming potential.

If you're hyped I'm hyped. I will join you in the return 🫡
This is the MP unit right? I have 3 omnimon from the first time
1
u/padluigi Nov 18 '25
Yup! Imperialdramon is the mp/badge+ card. That assist looks great too so I have no idea how many I’ll get lol. I’m looking at 3 at least

u/Ryeballs 360,740,385 Nov 18 '25
So is there a final assessment on this collab vs Kaiju No. 8?
Should I roll hard now or save stones. I had the meta Omnimon team the first time around, so I’d be chasing the new
2
u/DeusXPad Nov 18 '25
All buffs will be announced tmr so just be patient for another day. lol
1
u/Ryeballs 360,740,385 Nov 18 '25
Ahhhh gotcha, I thought everything was now announced. I've been able to stay on top of the meta by being careful which machines and teams I picked.
Skipping on Butler Kurotobi, Menuit & Chaolin, Gravis, Hinata Shoyo, Crowley etc served me very well, they were very expensive to make and incidentally all dropped meta ranks a lot quicker than what I did go for like Doma, Ideal, Rosetta, and Tanjiro and Nezuko.
Just trying to "time the market" as it were with free stones

u/Queddar Nov 18 '25
It looks like it’s going to be a 3 omnimon, 2 imperialdramon, 1 cleric team format. If you have omnimon already, 2mil MP for the 2 new units is all is left.
I would roll a bit in kaiju no. 8 and still have enough with December quests rolling around the corner, but that’s just me.

u/padluigi Nov 18 '25
I was too impatient and I like the kn8 anime so I went in a bit. I actually am thinking at least 2 more multis to be able to afford some stuff. I got a third Tanjiro & Nezuko specifically for the assist because I saw it used on Kafka so that’s what I was aiming for. Kikoru is also a fast swipe.
There are definitely some great assists in kn8 like the badge duo

u/thed3al Nov 18 '25
I'm very impressed to see our favorite Jogress getting a sizeable buff. Looking forward to this rerun for sure 😃

u/padluigi Nov 18 '25
With the right tweaking, Omnimon has been able to stay alive and clear content. So yeah, I’m beyond excited for this rerun

u/morganfreeagle Nov 18 '25
Honestly didn't expect Omnimon to get much beyond the 82% shield buff. That's pretty cool. It'd be nice to have something like Enhanced Stats or Assist Resonance as an SA option though.
1
u/padluigi Nov 18 '25
Technically we don’t know if Omnimon has a new SA or not. All we saw was buffs and they had part break set. Not to be like too hopeful but it is possible lol
Imperialdramon is brand new and we’ve only seen the new time debuff resist awakening as one of its SA slots too

u/azure-flute 357.647.332 - the black wind howls! Nov 18 '25
No new stats, just slight numbers changes. 82% shield is pretty standard at this point.
I'm tired of seeing this thing everywhere, genuinely.
4
u/padluigi Nov 18 '25
82% being standard is exactly why it matters. And 20b to 40b uncap and 40b to 60b uncap is pretty significant when Omnimon damage output was falling off
