Fate/PE Order: Nero's School Festival 2017

[trancehime]

at least everyone got free 4 star servant!! (if complete event and some mission)

i pretty much have all of them at this point, but it still sucks that after almost 130 rolls between 2 events I didn't get anything gold lol

We discussed it on the F/GO Wiki Discord.

We were discussing about how Illya's 3rd skill description is "Random". If you can read it, here are the descriptions.

I got this one below from /vg/, I'm sure the datamine wasn't out yet, so I'm not sure where this came from, probably a leak from somewhere else.


The description seems to say it's an RNG on probably a pool of some skill buffs available, I don't know what those skill buffs are exactly, but for the duration I've used them, it's mostly Guts and Debuff Immunity. Heal seems inherent to the skill.

I've tested it three times during this discussion, but I've used the skill a lot prior to this.

The results seem to mostly only yield the random buffs being Heal + Guts + Debuff Immunity.

1st test:



2nd test:



3rd test w/ Prillya support:



I hope DW gives info/update regarding this skill.

Rolling gacha for me is feel like you play slot machine sometime you pay alot and you got nothing but sometimes you got jackpot unexpectly I belive that lady luck will smile at you someday...

by the way have you try to buy quartz for rolling? or most quartz that you use for roll are from collecting?

thats because it is literally 70% guts and 70% debuff immunity with Heal only.

[Zerviscos]

Well that's a disappointingly good thing.

[trancehime]

Well that's a disappointingly good thing.

that's because it's targetable and not self only

[Zerviscos]

I guess people cant always read right. I also talked to someone to retranslate, he said it was guts and immunity.

ANYCASE, t'was as good thing, this just makes her a lot of a viable Dmg Caster.

gameplay-wise she's just Xuanzang with much worse NP gain and no utility, all damage.

[Buggy]

yeah Illiya's NP gain  is her draw back  I admit that

I usually fix this problem by put her it to arts team or put her with Emiya or Casko

Well, doesn't really matter much to me since like many 5* I won't ever get them (still at 4 5* servants at 400+ days played)

If exclude Illiya that I got recently I have same amount 5* servants as you ( with plenty of 4* servants from both event and gacha)

So that's why she's the first non-Avenger to have NP Gain per turn, afaik.

Pick-Up Start: September 21, 2016, 5:00pm
Pick-Up End: September 28. 2016, 1:59pm

All Times JST.
For a limited time, rate-ups will be done class by class over a period of one week! On each day, only Servants of a particular class will be available!

If you have a specific non-limited ed. 5-star in mind you want to get, now may be time if you still have some quartz. I won't particularly roll this one, probably 2-3 tickets on Rider for either Drake or Ozzy. But I'll save up mine for the next event, or limited-ed servant, since the current 5-stars in the Archers class are so-so.

[qMyon]

Database server maintenance incoming on the 26th, apparently. 7 apologems.

[Hikarin]

Ooh, 7 gems :3
Also, is Jannu on rate-up for all rate-up days this week? I can't read runes and I forget.

[Buggy]

Oo sweet 7 gems I may keep that gem (plus some from log-in dailies) for future event

by the way I pass pick-up class gacha to waited for another limited servants gacha

No, just during Assassin pick-up.

Jeebus. Two 5-stars in a row of events, all from tickets.

I was like.
"Oh it's a brand new day again. Remember, just one tix/summon per day for every event 'till Okita."
*Sees Gold Saber*
"Pfft, prolly another 4-star Nero"
*Sees White Dress*
"FFS. There goes my Okita."


Very happy I got her, a bit sad, that the probability for my next 5-star will probably be slimmer this time around, which I plan for Okita.
Atleast I can finally replace my Vanilla Saber.

*throws tablet* Daheck is up with that account......

On a less salty note - how is everything else going on the event? I'm not touching the hard challenges until I get 2 or 3 of those attack up CEs. Gotten your CE drops yet?

[Chaore]

did 13 rolls for event ce, 0/13.

rip me halloween mashu confirmed

I got all the CEs from the shop and the lottery. Just farming for the shop mats for now.

On another note, if anyone hasn't finished the current Exhibition matches. Just try to duplicate my team as close as possible with any other possible servants,
Herc:
Sustain Arts / Cleanse Arts Debuff with Marie as soon as 3rd Wave enters

Plugsuit Swap Chloe to Marie / Choose when to use Def Buff carefully

Rip 2-3x lives every few turns.
(Can kill Herc 2x-3x at most per turn if you have the right cards / Sustain Arts can gain Chloe's NP every few turns for sure 2x Kill per turn with Chloe's Chain Atk: NP first + Any Chain Cards after)

Managed 2 attempts with this, could've been one, but I tested if the Golems were a problem to use the Def buff(s) during the first waves.


https://twitter.com/gloriachan02401/status/781696856652849153
Also someone obliterated Herc with Amakusa only.

Scath + Cu:
Ugh...purely Sabers. TBH, I can't give much advise on this one, since I have a lot of Sabers, so I just did this in one try. But I did include Waver support with this.

Edit: Same Waver support as above though^. If you can find one with 2030 CE, that's better.

If you have a Nero + Interlude, her guts should be 3x. Very Helpful against their Instakills.


Also, use Mashu on almost, if not every current and upcoming Exhibition matches. She's probably the most cost-effective servant for this event.

[Buggy]

I still didn't finish any quest...because I still struggle fight Herc due lack of grinding my servant from previous event

[qMyon]

Siegfried is here in the latest 1AP, and he's as OP as the lore makes him out to be. Specifically, he's got a 200% defense boost. Most attacks, even with class advantage, will do 0 damage, even with event damage boost CE. The buff can't be cleared, so you have two options -

1. Defense-bypassing NPs
Not many of these. EMIYA is apparently the only Archer with one. Other hard hitters are Jack, Okita and Kintoki. However, they still don't hit too hard - they only bypass 100% defense.

Edit: List of defense-bypass NPs from reddit:
EMIYA, Okita, Saber Shiki, Assassin Shiki, Hector, Mephisto, Phantom, Nero, Kintoki, Artoria Lalter, Elizabeth Lancer & Caster, LuBu, Astolfo, Spartacus

2. Defense debuffs
Skills, NPs, what have you, just spam them on damage turns.

I used a mix of these. My NP3 Emiya was MVP, spamming UBW like there was no tomorrow. I grabbed a Jack support and popped Shuten in for debuffs, and Mashu to keep Emiya alive. Her defense buff and NP make Siegfried hit like a wet noodle, especially combined with EMIYA's attack debuff. You'll need it, since he fires off his NP on the first turn. Chip off his 50K HP, and job's done.

I found this by far the easiest challenge so far. Essentially a two-servant job.

I've also heard that Buster chains can also overpower his defense due to some quirk in calculation.

P.S. Shameless plug - my EMIYA is in my support archer slot with an event damage CE if you guys need him.

[Zerviscos]

I've also heard that Buster chains can also overpower his defense due to some quirk in calculation.

Buster chains is essentially a multiplier to dmg. 200% defence up on sumanai's armor.
for that calc, multiplies damage by (1-Def+Atk) you need to make >100% difference to get that multipler above 0

Discussing it in the BL forums made it easier for me to make a team to make up for my lack of actual ignore def units, besides Shiki, Nero, by having Hercales at the back.

[Zerviscos]

2 tickets in...I haven't even touched my quartz since summer.





Okay...this is definitely telling me something...is this a foreshadowing of something bad that's gonna happen?

[Buggy]

For me,It take 30 tickets + nearly 300 quartzs to summon her.. worth it!

[qMyon]

This is.....kind of beyond broken. EX Luck indeed.

Edit: *Laughs nervously* I guess complaining works after a while. And rolls do seem streakish for me. I had 10 tickets from mana prisms and finishing exhibition matches up to Gil. Since we're getting more, I decide to just yoloroll some.

First few tickets gave 4-star CEs every other roll. Seemed hot, so I kept going.

8th ticket, no golden sparks, but Drake shows up. I was pleasantly surprised with a 5-star rider.

But let's test the streak hypothesis. I quickly tap to fast-forward the introduction and roll again.

9th ticket, no golden sparks, but then - Jalter.

I honestly suspect a streakish element to the gacha now. Will this round be like Shuten where nearly everyone got her?

[Buggy]

for me ,rolling gacha is feel like playing slotmachine because it all depend on luck and sometimes lady luck smile at me especially in unexpected situation
