You should keep rerolling until you get a 5-star, or a decent 4-star.

If you started playing before 9/7, you can redeem a 4-star.

I've been farming Super(30 AP), but it just won't drop.

They said it can also drop on 5 - 20 AP, but I really want to do 30 AP for the Gold Medals and the Master Exp. Plus it drops Berserker EXP cards, since my Lead is Vlad III.

The one I got was from the 30 AP quest, so I can at least confirm that it's possible to drop there.

Major update coming out tomorrow, you can finally exchange those stupid medals.

Most of the stuff coming out is based on the producer letter from last week. I'm excited, lots of QOL stuff and bug fixes.

Apparently enemy NPs only targeting the first dude was a bug. RIP

One of the reasons why I stopped playing for a while after a week, was 'cause it was hard to progress through the story or get EXP cards in higher daily dungeons. Every support I get was also low-leveled since the game was new(and how a lot was rerolling for Jeanne).

After coming back, everyone's a monster(a good one that is) that can support my team easily through most high levels.
I re-started playing on Master level 17 I think around last week or so, after a week I'm almost 50, and I'm not even spamming Sunday Master EXP.

We can now exchange medals, and there's now a 40AP event and it's ridiculously hard if you don't have a decent team.

Also, the game now responds faster, and a lot of improvements.

10 - 13 YOLO rolls in total, enough Hero's Proofs that I can stop trying to farm them to ascend GARcher and hate the game for its terribad drop rates, enough exp cards to level said GARcher straight to the next ascension level and cry because I don't have enough infinity gears, and four more possible husbandos to attempt rolling and fail and cry about for all eternity?

Aw yiss, I am all about that.

Also, is a 500 HP demerit really efficient for anyone who can make a lot of use out of the Black Grail there?

Okay after re-reading that, apparently it meant four CURRENTLY EXISTING servants have increased drop rates, but hey, one of them is Robin Hood, so I'm still all for it! :V

It's not that I missed it, it's that the amount of Infinity Gear drops from the initial drop quest was one short of what I need for his third ascension, discovered that fact too late, and didn't have enough leftover bronze medals to grab one more. It's my own fault, since I immediately burned whatever bronze medals I had on EXP cards. Hindsight~  :colonveeplusalpha:

Nice one. You normally can't get her before clearing Fuyuki, and she is one of the best if not the best offensive 4-star servants statswise. Excalibur Morgan hits like a truck - at lower to mid levels, even harder than Excalibur.

Plus you get the cute goth loli dress as you ascend her.

Post by: Patorikku on October 09, 2015, 08:01:29 PM
What do you mean "normally"? :x Because I still haven't cleared Fuyuki :V
IIRC, the regular gacha doesn't have her unlocked until you beat main story in Fuyuki. You rolled her through the event gacha, I take it, which gives her a boosted chance of being rolled, and in this circumstance, an actual chance of being rolled pre-Fuyuki clear.

Also, when you do get to the end of Fuyuki, you'll want a strong Archer or Berserker servant for that final map. It'd be especially nice if you had one as a support though, amirite? *wink wink*

Still no Robin Hood; Kirei's been spooking me hardcore, save for the Vlad and Kaleidoscope earlier.

Still, I can't wait for my dragon waifu to get her theme going on. :V

The Kiyohime curse is real. I've only got 3 4-stars on my main, aside from welfare Saber - all guys (EMIYA, Lancelot, and now Siegfried).

I'm not sure why but forgot to post in here until now! My friend code is 602309163 and I have a Lv70 Jeanne leader, here's my deck (http://puu.sh/kFZqR/ce91ca71f7.png).

Main reason I remembered was that we've gotten a few details about the upcoming Halloween Event (http://typemoon.com/news/2015/jyfo0w)!
(http://puu.sh/kFZI7/540963a947.png)

Looks like we'll get a questline that, when cleared, will reward a special Halloween costume version of Liz, 4* and all. (I love Liz and don't have her yet, so yaaaaaay)

A lot of people seem to have multiple accounts so just add me on one of them, I won't have enough friend slots for every single alt :V

Awesome - one of my accounts has Elizabeth, but another one for each account ain't bad.

On the mini Jack assassin, I'm leaning towards a limited roll-out for Halloween, before being put in for good whenever London rolls around.

There's no information in that blog post confirming that Jack of Black is coming.
Talon farming is suffering though, so many servants need it en masse.
I dun read JP, so I really have no clue. :v

On the side...Why can't I hold all these seibas? I don't have a single seiba though.

Here are the details for the next updates.
https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/3ofhof/next_producer_letter_coming_at_the_end_of_october/


Event highlights:
Quote
...Fate/Grand Order will be doing an halloween limited time event named "The Adventure of the Singing Pumpkin Castle ~ Mad Party 2015" (Liberal translation). This will of course, be a completely original story. Players who manage to clear all the quests in the event will receieve a Halloween Version 4☆ (SR) Servant "Elizabeth Bathory". Except on this occasion, Elizabeth will be appearing as a caster.
Finally, a caster that's a waifu other than Medea, and higher than 3-stars other than Waver. :v
Quote
Now, in order for players to gain maximum enjoyment of the event "The Adventure of the Singing Pumpkin Castle ~ Mad Party 2015", only masters who have finished "The first singularity: The century war of evil dragon, Orleans" can participate in this event. For those masters who have yet to finish it, please seize this chance to finish some of the main quest.
It's the France quest(s), I think.
Quote
...the current campaign of "Main quest AP 1/2" will continue until October 31st.
New players should abuse this till you finish the required quests for the upcoming event.


Update Highlights(mentioned; but most likely more to come):
Quote
  • Game System Updates
As with the previous game update in late September, we will be executing some more updates to the game system. The main focus of the update will continue to be "convinience of playing" (user friendliness). Listed below will be some of the more prevelant changes to the game system.

  • Expansion of AP recovery system
AP recovery item 「黄金の果実」 (Golden Fruit) will be added
When using Quartz and Golden Fruit to reocvery AP, it will recover more than the current AP cap. (Overflow/Overcharge)

  • Adding limited time events view mode
Limited time events that has been cleared can be viewed again (event scenes) from " マイルーム (My Room) -> マテリアル (Material)".

  • Adding ability to change battle character (sprite)
Servants that have been ascended can now change which battle sprite to be used in battle

  • Improvement to quest information UI
Before the start of a quest, players will be able to confirm what enemy class are likely to appear.

  • Misc.
Support menu (Friend support) will now remember the sorting order and will not reset each time.
Various statuses during battle UI will be improved (Not translation error, it really is that vague)

Is it just me, or is this halloween event being REALLY generous with drop rates of ascension items? I got three or four octuplet twin crystals from the 20/30 AP repeatable quests' golems a lot faster than literally any other quest with golems in them. Not only that, but drops for monuments are pretty common with the apple guerilla quests.

Now if only infinity gears would naturally drop... ;v;

I dunno, when it was Siegfried's quests, the Amazons drop me atleast 3x phoenix plume. Talons are just absurdly hard for me right now. I can't ascend Vlad and vanilla Eliz. And I still need like 7 more. :qq:

I couldn't find a translated ver. on reddit, so I went with facebook. :V
Probably not my best decision, but it still gets it done in a nutshell.
(http://i.imgur.com/O5txb5t.png)

Anyways, my thoughts on this...
First off, I don't know why Drake is a 5*. There must be some good thing about her, but when I played Extra, she was pretty much cannon fodder. Probably because she was the first servant you fight(IIRC).
Second, looks like Euryale's finally out. If she is premium gacha-exclusive, for being a 3-star. I'll f-ing swear on DW's grave. But most likely she'll be in the FP gacha.
Third, I have no clue about Anne Bonney and Mary Read. I know their lore IRL, but this is the first time they've been given the Nasu treatment. I've seen their artwork, and I'm pretty intrigued to see the first servant to have 2 characters in one sprite.
Finally, lol. Both gender Hakuno CEs.

It looks like the rest of the Apocrypha team won't be coming out soon. Probably when London comes around. Hopefully, Sc?thach, probably the most hyped waifu next to Tamamo, will be out next year.

Literally that simple. Rarity is kinda bullshit.

I'm disappointed there is no Scathach though, how long are you going to draw this out, Delight works...? At this rate, I might just roll for tamamo before it's over.

Orion has two, technically. Orion is the bear. Artemis is the girl.

actually you know the true reason that drake is 5* is because she'll have qp toss as her true noble phantasm

she'll gain potentially infinite power based on our qp reserves

I also have wiped out the entire exchange shop, even the EXP cards. It's my first time clearing an entire inventory, since I couldn't do it in both Nero's and Moon Dango events. Thank you Golden Apples. :yukkuri:

Forever farming that last Irisviel CE, 1 and change days left.
Do you still have the Party Quests? Specifically Orion/Atlanta or Gilgamesh/Kintoki/Arturia? I suggest you farm either of those, more so on Atlanta's. Just kill Atlanta and if she drops a gold chest, look if it's a CE. If it's not just retreat and redo the quest. Edit: I spent around 2 Golden Apples trying to get Iris CE. Atlanta dropped gold chest 3x.

I don't know also if it's coincidence, but Party Quests will drop Iris CE higher chance than Tamamo, and Guerilla Quests vice-versa. Noticed it, because the Tamamo CEs dropped from both Guerilla Quests, one from Kiyohime and the other from Tamamo. Although I wasn't even farming them, I think they just dropped because the drop rate became higher, 'cause of the enemy levels. 

In my experience, the Party and Guerilla Quests drop WAAAAAYYYY MORE gold chests than 30 and 40 AP Free Quests, which has never dropped a single gold chest at all, and I've been farming since day 1 on 40 AP too.

Am I the only one who didn't even bother grinding for that CE drop?
Halloween Princess was the only CE I grinded for, since it was the only important CE out of the free ones. It was free, and next to Halloween Petit Devil, it's one of the best CEs right now, more so I'm using a Vlad. Probably my first mistake was trying to get it on Vlad's, wasted 6-7 Apples, when I only got it from Atlanta's using 2 Apples. Both the last two Maid in Halloween just came to me naturally doing Kiyohime's and Tamamo's. I wouldn't have even tried farming them since they weren't that good anyways. Weird how I got CE easier from them, when I couldn't even get a single damn talon from any of the three Chimeras that appeared in all the Kiyohime quests.

Edit: I still got 33 Golden Appurus. I don't know how many we got from both the event and the compensation, but I'm sure I spent a measly amount of apples in this event. And I hope we get more. :derp:

Good thing I'm not tempted to roll. More quartz to hoard! I'll just go for the FP gacha for Euryale. :V
I still damn those who has Stheno.

Also, with the appearance of Medea Lily in the Okeanos chapter...I think we'll be seeing her soon...I swear to God, if she's above 3-stars, it's definitely 'cause of near-loli waifu attributes, and popularity. I can understand shotaskander being 3-star, then broskander being 5-star, but not the other way around with Medea. :derp:

Edit: My bad. Apparently they're already out after you finish it. Both Medea Lily and David. :V

Also dayummm... This card's only 4-star? Is it because it's a buff card? 'Cause seriously, I think that's worth 5-star with that kind of buffs.
(http://i.imgur.com/7DzUqQ4.png)

Edit2: Okay...f-in Medea Lily is a 4-star. Wut DW? WUUUUUT?!

HAH. Still not tempted. Must wait for Astolfo, Scathach, Jack the Stripper, and probably Stheno. Whichever comes first.

OH WOW the amount of crit stars you get from a Quick chain is GLORIOUS! New meta's gonna become crit teams REAL fast with this going on.

Also, apparently, David is the prize for completing Okeanos. brb speedrunning pirateland, since the two archers I rolled (in succession and immediately when I logged in to YOLOroll, after only ever being able to roll ONE archer before, what the hell) were both Euryale and I have no taste for her.

OKAY, YOLOroll'd David just a moment ago, and he uses his staff as his main weapon, as opposed to his sling. Add in his tight clothing and you have your typical Nasuverse Archer. :V I sure as hell ain't complaining.

Post by: Zerviscos on November 06, 2015, 03:47:28 AM
I worship free tickets right now. I dunno if my luck's turning to EX, or they secretly fixed Gacha rates.
Yesterday I got my 7-day Ticket, I used it and get the Rin CE, which I still think it's worth the 5-stars it can do as opposed to like, the Nero CE.
(http://i.imgur.com/GAx1C4a.jpg)

Then logged-in today, get the 2 free tickets from the log-in, and at first I was thinking twice if I should use it, since I already got the CE I want yesterday. So decided to give it a go, and poof. I got this after using the very first ticket. After that, I decided not to use the other ticket, because I'm pretty sure I used up all my luck.
(http://i.imgur.com/9v6syjz.jpg)
Also, apparently that's how her sprite looks like. I expected it like, facing back-to-back or something.

Edit: Oh, and it looks like people have been finishing the Okeanos chapter fast to get Medea Lily. Some people have already summoned her, and everyone's going wild. If anyone plans to get her btw, she does not have a rate-up in the Gacha, she's just the gacha servant unlock once you clear Okeanos. So it'll be better to just wait for her rate-up, or throw quartz if you can't wait.

Edit2: Apparently, the reason why a lot of people are getting less CEs is because they decreased the rates of 3-star CEs in this event.
https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/3rmfg0/psa_gacha_rates_are_currently_raised_for_3/

Good thing, because seriously, how many times have I seen people getting 6-7 3-star CEs and 1 gold CE at their worst. Even Kana Ueda was flipping tables when that happened.

Which was really my main strike against the card, he's starting to become the Reason of F/GO. I'm confused on why he's getting 4-5* billing, honestly.

The in-game sprites just look flat better than his work.

However, Rabbit jokes extended and they're an amazing card imo so I went for it. Don't super regret it, get lv.3 NP for David too.

It actually looks weird how Mary is half the size of Anne in the art, whereas her sprite is 3/4s the size of Vlad, and around 2/5s Herc's size.

It is, but it works in action- if she was any smaller it'd be...weird tbh, her sprite size is nice as is.

Also I think Anne might also be -really- fucking tall in her sprite too, but I've only used the NP once, and there's no one to compare to in that shot.

The Chaldea Quests will be updated. I don't know when though. So if you want those Mana Prisms in your incomplete Chaldea Quests, better finish them now.

Also, I don't know why Berserker EXP cards are everyday, except Sunday. Anyways, I hope this makes farming talons easier, and cheaper. :V

the problem is they are making I-IV do art of girls and women when he clearly does better with mecha and mecha-inspired designs (see: Babbage)

I think he just overdid it with the fanservice, he's a bit decent from what I see, besides some proportions error. He does some girls a bit fine. And I checked his Pixiv, and I didn't know he was the one who did that Weltall ID art, and that other one with Maria, which I saw around probably 5 or more years ago, both from Xenogears. So yes, he should do mecha more, but I hope he improves on his women, I like how he blends colors, it'll be a waste to just use them on mecha. :derp:

The proportions are something alright. Mary looks the best of all his girls simply because she has no jibblyjanglers and holy crap he is bad at jibbly janglers.

Huh. Reset on mana prisms every week is...something. We now have a theoretic infinite source of mana prisms but it's impossible to acquire all mana prisms every day without quartz or apples.

Beserkers all day erryday is a bit much too. It's a definite 'improvement' in terms of mana prism output and ascension items though.

Speaking of London stage, it seems we'll get more unreleased servants aren't implemented yet but we had seen their sprites, all according to data mining. Hence London stage has gear icon and "knight" in it's Grand Order name, which means we'll see Nikola Tesla, Charles Babbage, Frankenstein's monster, Scathach, Henry Jekyll, Arjuna, Mordred, Arturia Alter Lancer, Brynhildr, Da Vinci, Paracelsus, Jack The Ripper, and Nursery Rhyme.
Chaore, looks like your waifu is coming to town. :V

Well, the speculations back then that Scathach was going to be released in 2016, around late Feb or early March? So I guess London will be out around those time. Considering the 3-4 months gap between chapter releases, the obviously upcoming Christmas and New Year events, and we might get a Chinese New Year Event(?). :derp:

Also, considering the hype for Scathach lately, I doubt she's a 4-star like speculated back then. Either she or Mordred will be the main 5-star.

Edit: I'm not saying that both of them will come out though, I'm saying like, one of them will come out as the main servants for the event gacha. 'Cause I doubt they'll release a lot of 5-stars and 4-stars in London, like Da Vinci, Arturia Alter Lancer, Frankenstein, etc.

Still, slightly sad for me though, still no Astolfo. I was hoping she(?)'ll come out with Jack, and Mordred, so I can hope for a 10-pull of all three. I guess I'll be forced to pull for Jack, Mordred, and/or Scathach. Hopefully if it is around that time, I'll have around 500 quartz by then.

There's a lot of unclear/speculation in that post tbh- whoever did it was really bad about mixing that with 'translation'.

I'd be pretty happy given I spent a good deal on Anne and Mary if she -is- London release, but I'm somewhat uncertain. I'd be unsurprised if her rarity was changed like Drake's, but i'm not sure about that.

I'd be ecstatic though. Celtic rep hype for once. And then cry because I'm -never- getting her.

Okay the Talon drops in the 40AP new quest are the real deal, first battle, and it gave me a talon...but in exchange, it's ridiculously hard for mid-leveled servants. You need a full AOE team that can dish out in rounds 2 and 3.

Edit: Also 280k HP Lancelot, plus 50k HP Caligula(?).
Round 2 was hard enough...

NEW EVENT TOMORROW. AND IT LOOKS LIKE NOBUNAGA'S THE EVENT SERVANT THIS TIME. :getdown:

I'm pretty psyche'd, I actually wanted Nobunaga more than Sakura Saber. However it's tempting me to roll for her, because she has a seibaface, and we all know that's why she's a 5-star. Still, I must resist rolling for Mordred, and Scathach. I might just use tickets to try for her, or GARcher. But I really needed an Archer, I've been using Euryale all this time, because my Robin Hood isn't maxed. Hopefully Nobunaga's good.

And this is before Christmas. I'm hoping they throw a good event. Oh, pages and talons in the exchange shop. I can finally max ascend Vlad.

Edit: Sakura Saber will be only available during the event's gacha. She will not be available after it, like Kintoki and Gilgamesh.

Oh my god free Nobunaga is all I ever wanted.

This is the best thanksgiving gift.

It's a bit sad she's 4* given she'd really want the 5* to make up for the fact her skills are probably going to be -insanely- specific due to who she is (she's basically specialized to beat anyone with divinity upside the head), but man if it's free I am down.

Not sure if I'll roll for Saku Saber. She's honestly my favorite Saber, but I only have 30 rolls and I'm tempted to save them.

Other event items are normal, Honnoji points indeed do seem to have tiering on them.

Rolled 10 Tix. And as usual, tix is so worthless in getting even just a 4-star Servant. And what's so DW-like was, I got all non-event cards(except that 3-star CE), as in literally, what? I even got Proto Cu, when Cu FSN was the rate-up. OH DW. :derp:

I still have 300 Quartz though, but I don't want to roll for the Gacha until I get Astolfo/Mordred/Scatach. If I can control myself from rolling waifu-tier servants like Tamamo. I can definitely prevent myself from rolling a seibaface. Good thing Nobunaga's the one that's free, I would've probably rolled for rage just to get her. :V

I'll admit though, SakuSeiba's sprite stance, and outfits look really good.


BTW. NOTE TO ALL: The first Nobunaga you get from the first Quest is time-limited. She is not the permanent servant we're supposed to get. So DO NOT try to level her up, unless you want a laugh. The permanent Nobunaga we need can be exchanged 100,000 Honnoji Points.

You should notice this when you saw a floating kanji text on top of her during party confirmation, and text box when trying to level the quest-only Nobunaga.

An hour later, I could not resist another 10-roll - and the gacha exploded with stuff I didn't have, notably an Imaginary Around, the new "beer" CE, St Martha and the crown -

You're very lucky.

I actually am being tempted to roll. Not because she's a waifu-hype train, but because when I used Quest Okita, her sprite animation was so f-ing cool. Her Quick, and Art cards make her look like an Assassin servant instead. Heck, she moves and looks more in her final ascension like an Assassin servant than the other actual Assassin servants.

I got a ticket from the quest, and when I rolled one time, a Saber card appeared...only to be Gilles'd.(http://i.imgur.com/ia1hkxc.png)

I'm still being tempted, but when I am, I keep going back to the reddit rolls thread, and look at posts that had people roll 60+ times, and didn't get her, to stop myself. :V

OH BOI. I FEEL YOU. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT.
Okita's sprite animations was enough to push me. Once I saw my friends list's Okita, used it, it flipped my "Oh you better get her" switch.

I used EVERY QUARTZ, not only did I not get her, but to add salt to injury, I did not even get a single Gold Servant AT ALL, and got multiple non-event Gold CEs. Only, I repeat, ONLY noteworthy CE was Imaginary Around.

I was so pissed, that the only way I managed to cool myself down was to buy a new GPU(mine's like 3 years old) to play B&S next year.

My only saving grace for this game was thinking Astolfo, Mordred, and Scatach wasn't time-limited.

Quote
did i mention how much I fucking hate this game's gacha?
We all do. The fact the Quartz price in ratio to the probability to get a gold servant, is so expensive, doesn't justify even buying it, unless YOU CAN spend money effortlessly. I can, but with the game's gacha, and people's stories I've read they spent 1000USD to get Gilgamesh, and/or Tamamo, I don't even try. You can effing buy so many tangible things with that money spent. Getting guaranteed 4+-Star card in 10-rolls, doesn't help either, if all you get are CEs. It's cheaper to buy a lucky account with good servants.

From what I read, the gacha's algorithm is so weird compared to other mobages(I don't know, it's probably just horrible rates). When you roll, you need to pass three walls before you get to that certain card.

So TL;DR. Even if there's an up-rate of a certain 4-star or 5-star servant, you need to get through the rarity pool first(or probably second), randomly choose between Servant or CE, then randomly choose a card from all in that Servant or CE's rarity pool.

WHICH IS SO WEIRD, because from my basic understanding, that seems harder to code the Gacha instead of the usual algorithm, which is at most two walls(if there are things like CEs in the same gacha. But with most mobage, they're separated in another gacha, eg. equipment), making the up-rate as a whole to that card entirely amongst all the cards, not to the card in the rarity pool only. There's no rarity pool to go through, and the only thing you need to go through is to choose between the two card types, and the choose amongst the entire rarity pool. (Eg. A 5-Star up-rate by 5%, every other cards at normal rates, you have an increased chance to get the card amongst all the cards from rarity 1 to 5.)

The only advantage with DW's Gacha system is that, if you SOMEHOW, MIRACULOUSLY managed to get through the 4-star/5-star pool, you're guaranteed to get a card with the same rarity. It just needs to choose among that certain rarity pool. Though, of course, that's hard to achieve from several experience, unless they're CEs. It doesn't also help with the ratio of Gold CEs to Servants are so far apart, because of how many CEs released per event, around 3-4.

TL;DR. Unless they either separate CEs from Servants in two gachas, which is the most plausible solution, or increased servant rates. I ain't spendin' a dime on the game(which I hope they fix, seriously, not even IAPs get some advantage). I can only imagine people having E-minus Luck, using only 3-stars to get to higher-tier endgames.

Sigh, and here I am still having 7 Gold Servants, 2 I got from codes, and 2 I got from events. Only 3 Gold Servants I actually got from the Gacha after probably near 1000 quartz since the release of the game, and only Vlad is the most noteworthy. I guess I could still call myself lucky, I know some peepz having no gold at all.

I suspect that the gacha rates are time-seeded somehow, due to my observation that rolling tends to be streakish. When I roll in rapid succession on alts, I tend to get similar results, bad or good. And if I roll at times of the day I don't normally do, I tend to get different stuff.

Alexander is a case in point for me. Maxed out his NP early on from 10-rolls, rolling at about the same time due to work. Tried changing times around, and haven't seen him much since.

Possible or just confirmation bias talking? You decide.

Colloquially, I'll agree. Rolling in batches tends to hit in spurts or miss in spurts for me as well.

I usually see 'first rolls are good, you tend to regret continuing'.

Honestly though, confirmation bias is mostly likely. :v

Edit: also, man, honnojji points are some bullshit without an emiya or Sakusaber. I'm hoping things get better as time goes on, but I'm not sure I'll make it to 1 mil now.

Funny story. I went and did a 10 roll yesterday, pretty decent got Waver which was my first 5* ever after playing this game since August and then a few yolos after to empty my remaining quartz and got a Gold Summoning ring which turned into a saber card...

Which promptly turned out to be Saber D'eon and I was disappointed since this is the second time I've gotten a gold saber card only to get trolled by Sieg (not that he's bad, but not really what I want)

I get a summoning ticket this morning from the daily gifts, so I decide to just roll it away and there's a slight issue with the connection so I just tap reconnect and talk to my friend since I'm in a lab. I remember that I rolled for something and then I look down just in time to see a blushing Okita...

I nearly dropped my phone and I probably have no right to ever complain about bad luck ever again.

How many points are all you guys at right now? I have 350k and have 3/4 of the CE and 2/4 of the ascension mats for Nobu. I'm waiting for a good chance to powerfarm AP40 and use up my apple store to push towards 1M points to max out Nobu.

Man, I've only gotten to maybe 250k. Just got Lv 2 Nobu Phantasm (shame on all of you who have yet to use this pun) and currently contemplating whether I should continue the event in order to fully ascend her/max her NP or just get the rest of those beautiful Infinity Gears and all those other ascension items. Finally got EMIYA to third ascension, and just need void's refuse and monuments before he's fully ascended. Fully ascended F/SN Cu, and working on plumes and monuments for Shotaskander.

All in all, I may not be getting a new crit-happy Saber, but most of my team's getting ascensions like crazy, and that's all I could ever ask for.

pretty much almost 400K. Not bothering to exchange for GUDAO CE, I'll just get that from drops. Already got all the Nobu ascension mats.

I'm waiting for maintenance tomorrow to get Saber 40 AP so I can farm that.

Man ever since those quartz I saved to try to get Astolfo, failed to get Okita. I've become pretty lazy farming in this event. I'm using apples just to catch up.
After buying a new GPU, I was still kind of sad(I know right?). I tried cheering myself up buying new peripheral for my PC. Gaming stuff, you know. Good thing it was still Black Friday then, and Cyber Monday. Got some pretty cheap deals on Razer.

Still, ever since that day. Err'day I've been rolling everything in this event, that if one chance gave me Okita. I'll tell myself "Atleast all those quartz I wasted, didn't come to a bad end...", which I feel it will. :qq:

exchange item is more of a priority deal than "buy out everything"

The drop rates for ascension materials in 40 AP is actually seems higher than usual. I got like 3 horseshoes already just doing 40 AP Rider.

definitely behind, planning to catch up on lancer day since I don't really have anything in the bag for drake and need to farm blue bowls anyway

all in all getting lv3 np nobu is in sight so it's not a huge loss (lv4 and 5 have diminishing returns for damage increase)

If my current account wasn't heavily set up, I'd consider it.

Events closing up, I got around 1.2 mil, just farming some gears and stuff outta caster 40.

Next event's specified servants have been teased already however!

Gaius Julius Caesar, Jing Ke, David, Darius III, Phantom of the Opera, Marie Antoinette, Martha, and Robin Hood will do shit next event, so investing in some of them might be a good idea.

700k, and doubting whether or not I really have any reason to keep Nobu. On one hand, pretty powerful free servant. On the other, I already have three "Archers" in EMIYA, David and Robin Hood, and I have zero desire to bench any of them, and only the full-team NP boost to convince me to keep her. (and beam spam's always nice)

I probably won't get enough collectibles to get all of Nobu's ascension skulls, and I'd rather just have the gears anyway. :V

Okay, something bad is gonna happen to me. I'm probably going to have flowerpots fall on my head or get hit by a truck or something. Or even just nothing but black keys to the end of days.

Remember I have a few different accounts, and roll a 10-roll for each promo? One had 90 quartz saved up, and I rolled a 10-roll.
Scathach, Medea Lily, Atalanta, 3 4-star CEs including one of the new ones.
The universe has to even things out somehow.

TBH, it's more likely you will land something like that over multiple accounts.

But I can't manage multiple accounts like that at once. I don't have the time to do so.

So it's ultimately frustrating that the F2P experience of FGO is just bad, it would be actually unplayable without the free shit that DW gives us on occasion. God I fucking hate this gacha.

Yeah, I think it's safe to say this game would've died in a month had it not been based on a cash cow IP like the Fate franchise. Hopefully one day they'll smarten up and at least make the gacha rates a little more reasonable, but with the cash they're making, I doubt they will.

Until then, I'm just gonna collect as many free quartz as I can until I roll Diarmuid. I WILL NOT REST UNTIL MY HUSBANDO ARMY IS COMPLETE

Actually, I'm thinking about this whole limited time servant thing and the concept, especially in this case, boggles my mind. I mean, I imagine Scathach has been a highly anticipated servant release in Japan with how much she's hyped up in the trailers for the game, so naturally, she'd be a good way to draw in customers over time, or at least initially. So all I'm thinking is with the crowd that comes in later, they figure out that servants they're really looking forward to getting such as Scathach and Gilgamesh are purely event servants that won't ever get released again are just gonna walk off the game right then and there, most likely. WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY THINKING MAKING HER LIMITED TIME!? Why even use that tactic to milk out money in the short term when it'd gain more in the long term if those servants were constantly available!?

Just one note: I believe I saw that while Gil and Scathach are limited time and will not be added to story gacha, they will be released again in future. Just that they're keeping then for events, it seems. Think PAD's Christmas REM. But with an unknown schedule. I believe Okita is the only servant who hasn't had that  guarantee.

Before this year ends, I'm going to write the "Current State of F/GO" after Christmas, a comprehensive analysis of the game since it's release, the content, gacha, experiences, etc. Also probably a list of reasons why DW will not improved the gacha anytime soon. One of them most likely have to do with the Japanese market.

Also I'll be asking a friend of mine who spent a lot of money on this game. If it's really worth it.

Post by: Widermelonz on December 11, 2015, 07:51:57 AM
I like fatego.

The world building is really nice and some of the characters have really interesting personalities and fun dialog. Not just the main characters either, I also like how they expanded on the side-characters during each arc, like marie in france, boudica in rome, and euryale in okeanos. I feel that the story is really character-driven, otherwise we'd just have a plain defeat-enemies-defeat-boss adventure story. Also, each of the arcs of the main story are simple and coherent enough and there aren't really any asspulls yet. Also, I like the event stories too. They're really silly, the dialog is over-the-top, but I think they're funny. It's a nice change of pace going between the main story and the event stories.

As for the gatch, I don't mind it. I've spent 0 money on this game, been playing this game since day 1. So far I have one 5* servant and two 5* CEs. Sure, the gatcha rates are shit, but I feel that they give out a good amount quartz. The drop rate for 5* servants is something like 1%, right? That seems pretty fair to me. Also QP is plentiful and so are friend pts. Mana cubes aren't a necessity and they've made them easier to get now.

The one complaint that I have about the game is that the enemies are too easy to beat most of time. I can make a party of just servants with good base stats/skills,  but no synergy with the other servants whatsoever, and just brute force through every level.

But then again, I'm super biased because I'm a type-moon fanboy and mashu is mai waifu

I actually will create a poll in our local group, and try to ask the people who spent a handful of money.

Also, I read that the new chapter might be out soon. Great! 3 gacha events in a row, and I didn't and won't get anything good. I saved up for Jack, Mordred, and Astolfo primarily, and I spent it on "Dayum dawgs, dem animations are dope." servants.

Look at the bright side though, prolly in a year or so, Gacha will be "fixed". Cause with DW's pile o' cash, they might feel "generous", and the first players get a free 5-Star, like the *4M DL Event. ' and we'll all take a look back and laugh(not).
Sure, the gatcha rates are shit, but I feel that they give out a good amount quartz. The drop rate for 5* servants is something like 1%, right? That seems pretty fair to me.
They do give a handful of apoligems, but the main problem lies in the contents of Gacha itself, not just the rates, which is a less of a concern. Which their rates are actually more or less standard, and at highest 5% for SSR cards.

To summarize, the contents of the Gacha consists of a.) Servants, and b) Craft Essences. Now mixing the content of a gacha isn't new, you see that with games with equips in them. However the problem lies on the ratio of the type of cards. We have more CEs than servants, and in every new event, we get 3-4-5 new Gold CEs to 1-2 new Gold Servants. If this keeps up, the ratio will keep getting bigger, to the point that the probability of getting a specific card lowers to less than 1% even. With the ratio being bigger by every event, the 10-roll gold star assurance, will and can become less effective to get a Gold Servant overtime. While that's normal for gachas with new cards being released, it's not with F/GO, their theorized gacha algorithm is absurd(who knows, might be even more absurd), as I explained in the previous page. Where combined with the ratio of the type of cards to one another, it makes sense why there are people who actually spent over 1000 usd in one sitting to get a specific card in one event. Which is why even if the price of the quartz are normal, isn't justifiable with the ratio of money spent to good cards being actually drawn. Which effectively makes this game's gacha not F2P-friendly. They either make it cheaper, or add more quartz per USD.

Hi, guys. Remember me? I started up again with a new account because I didn't want Mephistopheles as my freebie. I got Boudica instead so that's something. Anyway, my friend code's 197375139. I need high-level friends because I don't have enough quartz to roll 10x yet. I don't have any other servants.

Boudica is arguably worse than Mephistopheles if you favour offense over defense.

More than one (copy of your) waifu will ruin your laifu.

Legit though, that's messed up. It gets to the point where it seems more like an outright mental condition to go so far for this kind of thing. No wonder DW can afford to keep their gacha rates so shit and continue to pull this limited time servant shit.

santa alter is really cute.

EDIT:

collect magick stockings by beating up enemy event servants

x2 = 1 xmas gacha pull
x20 = 10 xmas gacha pull

get a variety of rewards from pulling. Story event with better rewards are unlocked over time. Like countdown format.

EDIT 2:

you get about 50~ stockings with rate-up servants on doing 40 AP quest.
Floor 1 has some generic xmas enemies, Floor 2 has Kiyohime + 2 Christmas Gloves, Floor 3 has Boudica + Atanyanta + Anne&Mary

Just play casual. Do the occasional story, level if you feel like it, max level as a long term goal, get event servants..... It's what I do nowadays.

I kinda regret making my 3 alts since they said they've started cutting down on account trading, or I would give away most of them. I have a Waver/Alter alt and a Neko pair alt kinda just sitting there. At least having them scratches the rolling itch.

That is what I have been doing for the past couple of months actually.

All of the event servants are of classes I already use in abundance (Archer, Caster, Rider) when I am lacking of others, the game actually seriously gets repetitive without the shiny toys that everybody else except me seemingly has

Agh, blast it. No way I can handle this many alts.

New Year Giveaway time, MOTK Edition!

If you're willing to take the risk of Delightworks suddenly deciding to ban traded accounts, I'll give away one of the following accounts. Post with whichever one you want and I'll roll to see who gets it.

Account 1: Lv62, Starting Okeanos
Notable servants: Arturia Lv72, Scathach Lv60, Saber Alter Lv50, Heracles Lv50, Medea Lily Lv34, Marie Lv19, D'Eon Lv19, Carmilla Lv34, Nyatalanta Lv1
Bonus: Imaginary Around, Formalcraft, 8-stars-a-turn CE, Black Grail, Heaven's Feel, Moon Festival CE, Nero CE, 2x Hollow Magic, 4 tickets, 40 quartz

Account 2: Lv 29, France complete
Notable servants: Waver Lv50, Gilgamesh Lv10 (newly rolled), Saber Alter Lv40, Lancer Liz Lv41, Stheno Lv20, Marie Lv1, Martha Lv1
Bonus: K-scope, 8-stars-a-turn CE, Black Grail, Heaven's Feel, Prisma Cosmos, 2x Limited Over/Zero, Imaginary Around, Formalcraft. 2 tickets, 6 quartz.

The above accounts have the event servants, but only Caster Bathory will have all her ascension mats. Note that all accounts above will also be pretty short on ascension mats, so you'll have to do the grinding.

Giveaway open for the next 48 hours. Best of luck.

Yep, free quartz. We actually have gotten quite a bit of free quartz since the accounts were first made around the first million downloads campaign, plus my rolling strategy seems to work. 5/6 accounts that I made initially picked up at least 1 5-star. Traded off two of them early though.

Of course, getting 3 Gils in 6 accounts is a little screwy, but that's RNG for you, I guess.

With that, I'll add another account to the choice for the giveaway, and I'll give away one more account as well.

It's on iOS too, but you need a JP iTunes account. It's essentially a catch'em all game with a little bit of card-based combat. Poor gatcha rates, but I play it nice and casual. From what I hear, story is pretty good, but you'll only get full benefit if you can read JP.

With that, I've pruned myself down to 1 alt and 1 main. Should be much more manageable.

Edit: And now that alt with Karna and the Nekos? Gets free tickets from Karna/Arjuna trials. Rolls and lags out. Log back in to find a new Archer - Orion.

Didn't expect this one. How I work is that I typically roll at most one 10-roll at any one time. Minimum of an hour between sets of rolls. If a roll picks up something good, I may extend the session for a few more tries. Seems to work based off the 'streakishness' of my rolls. For example, immediately after this Orion roll, I quickly rolled the next ticket for a Lancelot.

That means that this account, over 4 rolls, went Karna>4-star CE>Orion>Lancelot.

However, bear in mind that this one was also pretty dry since Atalanta was first released. Had Martha as a starter, then Tamamocat from the free 4-star, then D'Eon+Siegfried+Atalanta when she came out. It hadn't rolled any gold servants since then. Make of that what you will.

Dood, now I firmly believe the ability to roll great cards is strictly account-based. Just rolled your tickets in the Mordred Gacha.
Summoning Circle was glimmering gold*
Gold Seiba Card appeared*
Expects the Red Seiba*
Got Nero*

Not the Red Seiba I wanted, but still...first few tries in the gacha, and it scored me a Seibaface. Seriously man. Account luck. If you managed to snag atleast Halloween Princess max leveled, and max ascendable Nobunaga. I would've been glad to even buy this from you. :^)

And here I am not even able to roll the 3-star servants I want anymore. :V To be fair, I DID yoloroll like 3 different 5 stars, so I can't complain. Much.

Speaking of RNG destroying my hopes and dreams, why on earth must it be so hard for a bunch of rocks to drop some goddamn rocks? It's a good thing most servants' ascensions only need maybe four of those octuplet twin crystals, but still, DAMN this takes forever, even with maps that have four golems each run.

I actually want to roll as well for, Heroine X, but seeing that I already have Alter and Nero, I decided not to, because I might get dupes(I don't really care about Level 2/3 NP, since I rarely even go 200% with my NP charges. Plus qMyon already had Alter at NP Lvl 2.). Heroine X isn't as hyped as Okita's animation, which actually forced me to spend quartz...her animations were kind of spoofy(ofc). I'll probably roll once I get my 7th day ticket.

I really want them to put Astolfo soon though(I expect 5-Star, DW).

(A tad overloaded on rare Saber-classes, though. A new 4-star is still nice though.)

Edit:
Felt gacha-sense tingling just after waking up. Decided to test my theory that rolling at the same time of the day as previous good results will also give good results. At about 8am, the time I rolled Okita, I drained my quartz for 5 yolo rolls. On the last roll, no sparkles, but then

Jack is basically better in most respects, but the pool of Gold assassins is so tiny that if you get lucky and get MHX before Jack, you shouldn't complain much. I mean the pool of gold assassins is basically MHX who is limited, and then Carmilla and Jack. We don't count Stheno because she sucks aside from being waifu. Then the next best is fucking Hassan, who while is major badass, is still a Bronze servant and could be godlike with higher stats.

For those of you looking for ideas on how to farm Scathach, here's my team to farm that Lv85 quest:

The issue is that her shtick seems to be doing really well against saberfaces, but saberfaces aren't a common enough enemy even within this event; so her meteor sword skill is basically a dead skill. And her NP does bonus damage also against Saberfaces. I mean you might as well just use Jack in that case, at least she even has a heal.

Essentially what I was half eluding to yes.

Regardless though, she's not jack but for her field, support shelling is strong and Instinct can add that little extra crit, which is what I was admitting I was overlooking.

Welp...This actually took me a decent number of quartz. BUT I FINALLY GOT HER!

(https://i.imgur.com/fxpj5TK.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/v53Rr7z.jpg)

In total I had, seven tickets, and 98 Quartz.
Most notable ones I got, in order:
1st ticket - Elizabeth <Right after Lancer-coins increased drops...lol
4th ticket - D'eon <SERIOUSLY THAT GOLD SABER MADE ME SCREAM
?? Quartz - Projection Magic
?? Quartz - Valentine Dojo of Tears
?? Quartz - Necromancy
44 Quartz - Carmilla <I expected Stheno, but...
38 Quartz - Jeanne < That Ruler Card art saved my day

I actually think, right now, DW's algorithm is so weird, that single rolls is better than multi-rolls. Maybe multi-rolls aren't considered single-rolls per card. 'Cause this is the most gold servant cards I've gotten, more so than 3x 10-rolls. Or probably it's because they removed Kirei's favorite weapons of choice.

...or this account is just seriously cursed...with luck! Myon's account is cursedly blessed.

I was actually hoping I'd still have atleast 60 when I get either Nero Bride or Jeanne, to try for Tamamo, Jack, or Mordred(must get all Seibaface). But I guess I'll just try for Tamamo this time around.

I just hope they don't release Astolfo soon, I need more time to save up.

Yep, that's the account alright. I had always had the impression that this was a 'golden' account, so to speak - but I never expected it would go this far. This is beyond mere golden and into reality-warping EX-Luck. And if you have been leaving it F2P.......it's even more nuts. Then again, maybe it was trying to make up for D'Eon teasing you.

It's actually looking like Shiki'll be the free event servant, given the 4* rarity. Makes sense, since the previous ones were Caster-Archer-Rider-Saber, meaning an Assassin would fit in the cycle.

If the CM is really relevant to the event story, we'll probably see a rate-up for Scathach. And Touko if she ends up being a servant, but I have my doubts.

So....how did everyone's Dante event runs go? Went quite smoothly for me, barring the last couple which saw me burning my command seals and 1 quartz. Dante hits like a freaking truck - one crit and half of EMIYA's HP disappeared.

Medea Lily FTW. Her first skill is really OP tbh.

This was my team the entire event, until the last where I changed Jeanne to Bryn.
From what I noticed Dante's dmg increases progressively each turn, or it just might be me. Anyways, I haven't used any command seals/quartz, thanks to Medea Lily's heal, Scatach stun, and Vlad's Berserker type dmg, I was able to last until I let some dood's Okita finish Dante. The fastest way to finish this from what I've saw though is just used a bunch of berserkers who have either Kaleid, Imaginary Around, or something similar.

The first one with ghosts was harder in my case, almost lost if it weren't for Chuuni's NP accumulation.

New chapter is coming up. Has something to do with The Treaty of Paris I think...

And it looks like Medb(edit: actually, the next one for this probably since the next chapter is possibly set in Ireland) and Billy the Kid will be coming soon, prolly when this chapter opens.

Also, it looks like Scatach will be the main servant for the next chapter after this, so expect her to be added to the Story Gacha. Still, I'm not sure, I'm not a valid source anyways. :V

The design is 200% real, it's in the cv. Honestly, it's probably Jaguarman or something.

There's a long post on why the name caption is probably edited to shit, and caster makes no sense for Edison by the conventions inventors use: (What you invented, not that you invented).

Also Edison wasn't on the blacklist.

and the only people not on that are super special collabs like Shiki and Okita/Nobu. Most story servants have been on it.

For some reason, Edison doesn't seem all that bad compared to servants like Babbage. Florence's design is just too bad, though.

Rolling update: My main now has maxed Imaginary Around fitted to Okita in the friends slot. My alt just rolled ORAORAORA. I think I can field an all-gold-Berserker team eventually - Beowulf, Fran, Tamamocat and Lancelot.

Also, can someone change the friend code of my alts to just 015334533 (Karna in slot atm)? The two alts there were the ones I gave away.

Rama 4-star Saber
Helena Petrovna Blavatsky 4-star Caster
Geronimo 3-star Caster
Billy the Kid 3-star Archer

10 quartz for maintenance.

And in other news, the tutorial roll is now a 10-roll with a guaranteed 4-star CE (and 4-star servant?) from the August giveaway pool. I don't know if I feel jealous or not.

Edit: Welp, tried to roll. After 8 tix. Got Franken-bride instead. Not that I'm complaining, but I don't really need another berserker. That's why I skipped Nightingale. I'm not attracted to Alter Jeanne mainly because she's an Avenger. And Berserkers can do what Avengers are supposed to do. Just rolled to try it out. I really need a Rider and an Archer though.

Interview with Nasu now translated! With a little snippet on the upcoming event:

Quote
The magazine also has an announcement of the upcoming Fate/Zero special event. What would this event be like?

Nasu: The Fate/Zero event will be fun, of course! Actually, during the planning phase a year ago, there was a character that we were writing as a surprise for players, and when I asked (Gen) Urobuchi to write a story with that character as protagonist, he gladly accepted it. But during the plotting stage, even though I said, ?Write something with a happy ending for once,? first he asked me, ?Can?t I have this character kill this other character and end it there?? and he gave me a plot that was even darker than Fate/Zero. [laughs] I said, ?What kind of festival do you think we?re making here?! Gen, you should believe more in dreams, aspirations, and the bonds between people!? and had him revise the whole thing. Urobuchi also plays FGO, so the meeting was pretty simple. It went like, ?Urobuchi, I want you to write a Fate/Zero collab event for FGO. Actually, just do it.? ?Understood. I?ll burn through it with my 3☆ party. Though I did Kintarou [5] during the New Year.? There was absolutely no need to explain the system, so it was all just ?I?ll leave it to you!?

So I was doing some last few hours hard farming,

In under 2 hours I got myself 4 School of Chaldea(it's called this right?). I was excited to get a second maxed out CE, because I still had 2 hours left. I farmed non-stop, but alas, the last CE that drop was one of the Jeanne CEs...

Now what am I gonna do with this level 80 cap CE? I do hope some point in the future they bring back past event CEs as shop exchange or something. Otherwise my other event CEs will just rust in storage without being used.

Looks like no one did the current event.

I just did it yesterday. I was literally busy and finished the event just a while ago. Got all Iri ascension mats, NP 5, and finished all 100 of the quests. I didn't wipe the shop, nor I intend to. Not only does it have new ascension mats for new servants I don't have, but I only planned to finish the event. Bursted a lot of apples btw.

I did it. Just didn't bother to post since I was juggling exams. Iri with ascension mats and NP5 on both main and alt, and all 100 quests on my main. Just feeling a little dry since I entered a 5-star drought. Haven't gotten one since Saber Wars.

BRB soaking head in salt.

Nice one, though. That is one heck of a lot of golds. Shuten's got a nice voice (Aoi Yuuki), will waveclear riders, I hear has 2 damage boosts and a defense down, and the NP has a lot of debuffs.

I'll probably roll on my alt - 50-day quartz due tomorrow, together with maintenance quartz, 7-day consecutive ticket, and monthly prism shop tickets. It's past due for another 5-star - none of them since New Year's.

Edit: Myon's Rolling Techniques, Vol. 2
I heard of the "superstition" that good rolls come after getting great/super success in CE/Servant leveling. So I test that.

Alt: Great Success in leveling servant. Roll 5 tickets - 2xTamamo 5star CE, 1xKiyohime CE.

Main: Super Success in leveling CE. Roll 1 ticket - Shuten-douji.

Theory confirmed.

Xuanzang appears to be a Caster. Design looks kinda like a palette-swapped Martha to me. I was kinda hoping for a badass monk instead, but meh. More time to save quartz, I guess. Still searching for that gold Lancer.

Very big technicality. He's even less filled out than Hideyoshi is of 'servants that didn't make the cut'.

If Wukong ever does show up I'd get the feeling it won't be from the koha-ace variation. Then again, We do still have a free servant in lancing waiting... :v

Lu Bu = White Dragon Horse
Gorgon Sisters = Gold Horn King/Silver Horn King (Euryale/Stheno), "Copper Horn King" (Medusa) - joke character that didn't exist in original JTTW
Mordred = Red Boy
Lancer Arturia Alter = Bull King (Red Boy's dad)
Nightingale = Princess Iron Fan (Red Boy's mom)

Xuanzang as herself.
Nezha as herself.

Yep, that's right. My post was speculation before the event, so should have said that.

They just updated. Focken Ibaraki is only a 4-star
And Minamoto no Yorimitsu is 5-star.

I can do two things here:
1. Roll for the female 5-star Berserker to have an all-Grill support team, and possibly future 5-star Team.
or
2. Skip to earn more quartz for another class that I don't have a 5-star yet, and just go for a whole 5-star Team ASAP.

She seems tempting. I'll wait for some overview of her skills till I decide what to do.

Still, 2 Berserker up-rates. I really don't want to have anymore Berserkers than what I already have.

-Berserker Tamamo

-Raccoon Rider
-Assassin whose name I can't read and whose art I don't know, but he's 3-star. (http://appmedia.jp/fategrandorder/116533)

We are getting so much quartz I decided to roll my 9 tickets over the past couple of days - a nice haul including the event 5-star CE, Rama and Ibaraki.

I think I'll keep this roll.

Pretty good to have two golds in the 10-roll. The caster sounds like Charles Babbage. The assassin is Jing Ke. Lancer Cu and raccoon Rider aka Ushiwakamaru are very good silvers. Carmilla and Tamamocat are both pretty good heavy hitters.

English wiki here for more info: http://fate-go.cirnopedia.info/

On a side note, I have a starter account with Elizabeth Lancer and D'Eon lying around, if anyone wants it.

Well, I must say DW are being so generous.

Gacha discount: 4 ---> 3 quartz a roll, meaning 10 rolls are now 30 quartz from 40. This is permanent.

Special login bonuses, 7th day = 10 tickets

Expand servant and CE storage space to 300 for free. If you already spent quartz, you will get them refund

Good way to do it, really. keeps the pools from being TOO large.

No okita=0/10 though not paying this time you losers.

So what's the minimum rating you should settle for on your 4*? 8.0? I mean, considering how many gachamonies you've got ahead of you starting out slightly less than optimum isn't going to run your life in the long run, is it? Although FGO's draw rates are pretty brutal compared to other mobile games since Craft Essences aren't their own gacha.

Edit: Ahahaha, I'm not really trying to play this game seriously but I rerolled after getting Marie Antoinette and landed the 9/10 Chevalier D'eon or whatever.

FGO is legit one of the worst gachas ever but it gets by on everything else that's not the gacha, apparently. If it was a Vita game where the gacha currency was 100% infinite without IAPs and Craft Essences and characters were separated, it would probably be just as popular.
Title: Re: Fate/Gurando Oruder: Japanese monsters and stuff Part 2
Post by: Chaore on July 30, 2016, 08:23:43 PM
FGO is legit one of the worst gachas ever

Honestly only by numbers.

I've seen far, far worse than F/GO with many times 'better' rates. The fact that they continue to make 3* servants stronger and stronger each update to boot (Fucking targettable guts and buster boost???? roma fucking op son) and are very likely going to make them even more come grail ascension is the real reason people who say this shit honestly are blind to the wider industry.

It's the other way around, most of F/GO's wider problems aren't with the gacha proper but with how the game is managed (Server issues, almost non-existent difficulty for a greater part, servant distribution among classes and limited servants).

The gacha itself, honestly, is fairly charitable even if it doesn't seem like it.

Love your 3* and 4* servants today, kids. Don't just look for that 5* rating.

tldr; numbers are a fucking meme contents is what matters and F/GO blows a lot of games out of the water on that, i'd take 3*s that have actual use over honestly VERY small percent raises for a gacha that makes almost everything I roll that is not SSR useless.

4* Ruler? Very interesting. I'll be more interested in the 2nd gacha by the looks of things.

I limited myself to one 10-roll (plus a bunch of tickets on the alt) on each account for the first rate-up. Atanyanta CE on main, Mordred on alt.

P.S. Now we have a non-alter Arturia in all 3 knight classes plus Assassin if you count MHX. How much longer till we get Rider/Caster/Berserker Arturias?

Oh come on! I rolled 10 tickets - 2xMedea Lily, 1xNursery Rhyme. You gave me all the 4-stars you were supposed to roll. Now gimme back my Illya.

Joking aside, I know I should be really happy to get 3 4-stars in 10 rolls. But gacha, please stop playing games with my heart. It's going up and down every time I see gold sparks and a caster card.

Also, I wonder who the villain of this event is. I don't recognize the silhouette.

100+ rolls in Summer = 0 Gold Servants

9 Ticket rolls in Prilya = 0 Gold Servants

why the FUCK do I even bother?

Double Miyu, Double Gil Install from 19 rolls.

Sure I guess I can take that.

21 total rolls now.

Only event stuff I got was 3 copies of the Tanaka CE. No Miyu CE, no Angelica CE, and for fucking sure no goddamn Gold servants.

EX-Luck combined with a powerful desire sensor - I now have NP2 Helena, Medea Lily and Nursery Rhyme. Still no Miyu CE or Illya. I feel a strange combination of joy and disappointment at the moment.

Also, I'm no florist, but are those lilies in Kuro's background? If so, that's quite the pun.

Poor trance is probably going to get a bad case of hypertension from all the salt.

But more seriously, congrats. By all indications she's a pretty good servant.

Thanks! and yeah...she is really good in many ways espacially farming item in this event

about Rolling Gacha I start to feel that when I not expect to get something , some unexpect thing may happen (normally, I just want Angelica CE in this gacha didn't belive that I got Illiya and like I said this is second time that happen to me)

like some people said

We discussed it on the F/GO Wiki Discord.
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/383e09a6a3de417cbdf44e63d0e7df6b.png)
We were discussing about how Illya's 3rd skill description is "Random". If you can read it, here are the descriptions.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/183847586413674496/224793043495157760/14285288_1258917697463005_154201689_o.png)
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.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/183847586413674496/224790075827945473/1473660759718.png)

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:

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?

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

Limited-time Gacha "Class-by-Class Pick-Up Summoning" announced!
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!
Note: All Story-locked Servants(non-limited ed.) will be available in this gacha even if the corresponding Singularities have not been cleared yet.

Pick-Up Schedule:
September 21, 2016 - Saber
September 22, 2016 - Archer
September 23, 2016 - Lancer
September 24, 2016 - Rider
September 25, 2016 - Assassin + EXTRA Class(Jeanne D'Arc)
September 26, 2016 - Caster
September 27, 2016 - Berserker 

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.

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."

(https://i.imgur.com/cMhgOcz.png)
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.

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
(http://i.imgur.com/0sirxnf.jpg)
Plugsuit Swap Chloe to Marie / Choose when to use Def Buff carefully
(http://i.imgur.com/UdESQhz.jpg)
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)
(http://i.imgur.com/LIM6nHY.jpg)
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.
(http://i.imgur.com/g6urNB9.jpg)
Edit: Same Waver support as above though^. If you can find one with 2030 CE, that's better.
(http://i.imgur.com/q4F8Igc.jpg)
If you have a Nero + Interlude, her guts should be 3x. Very Helpful against their Instakills.
(http://i.imgur.com/vwJOXgz.jpg)

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

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.

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.

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?

for example, some group of people belive that if gacha have brightest light at background you will probably got  gold servant

or some people belive in time . For example my friend having 10-roll gacha at 22:00 pm and he always get at least 1 gold servant  and previously he got 2 nero and 1 nero bride when he roll 10-roll gacha at 22:00 pm

1.5x the length of Chapter 6, sorry.

Blank Saint Graph is the thing you get after NP5-ing a servant and rolling a sixth. They recently added it for 5-stars where, if you have a certain number of BSGs, you get to choose another 5-star to get. They're implementing something similar for 4-stars soon, but no word on what you can redeem using them.

it's more a symptom of how bad he is and how niche what he does is, and lacking an interlude even after all this time

it'll take a lot more than one buff to fix Sieg's issues as it stands, but the fact they've acknowledged they can and should is a step in the right direction

Halloween Event is here!

I am loving the retro vibe so far, and the stage music is nice too. By all indications, Saber Liz is pretty good too - our first true event welfare Saber (sorry Lily). Her third skill is a random selection between a bunch of utterly broken buffs for the team.

Remember Hero Liz has "party members" who have attack boost - they're apparently Ibaraki, Robin Hood and Nitocris.

Also, gacha luck is a strange thing - I just added Xuanzang to the team.[\spoiler]

Get hyped - FGO is getting a feature-length TV animation by end 2016.

http://anime.fate-go.jp/

Also, in the coming patch, Fate/Extella campaign - EMIYA and Altera are getting animation+NP updates. We'll also have a ticket for a commemoration CE - Nero, Tamamo, Altera, Emiya, Karna or Gilgamesh. We also get 12 quartz, a ticket, and some apples.

There's also a Fate/Extra pickup summon for those who are interested.

Going a little bit off topic.

I'm a little bit excited about the F/GO fan project, Empire of Dirt, especially regarding the Saberface Rider character
who I suspect is Mordred, who had successfully defeated her father and assumed the throne
. They just recently revealed the Saber Servant, who I've heard is
a gender swapped (of course) Lu Xun
.

So awesome.

EDIT: I do wonder if they're going to have multiple of each class, if some Servants will not be in their "canon" class (Rama can easily be an Archer, for example), or if some of them aren't Servants at all (if I recall correctly Rama, Brynhildr, and Yorimitsu haven't been shown in combat outfits, so they could very well be "human"). The only ones who are confirmed as Servants are Saberface Rider and Chinese Saber (Scathach has been shown in a combat outfit, but quite honestly, with how Scathach is effectively immortal, she could very well be a non Servant).

For me I try to build him tanky as possible by put damage protection CE like "Threefold Barrier" .
The other method is put Mashu or Weaver into team to give Df buff to Enkidu  that may help Enkidu  tanky a little bit
and yeah with 10 turn healing skill cooldown  I feel like using his healing skill must using wisely or else we will  waste it and must wait for  10 turn for using again..

i mean if we are talking about archuria. she has pretty serviceable np gain anyway.

i have used enkidu support a fair bit now and I can see his applications. The only good thing about his Quicks is that they have surprisingly non-trivial star gen, other than that his card layout really hurts him. And I once had a scenario where literally none of Enkidu's Quicks came up and then I used his Buster UP to prop with his NP, and he also had his ONLY ARTS CARD, then he goes ahead and boosts his fucking Quick.

Seriously that first skill, why does it have to be so RNG?

you can control enemy targetting though by using defensive servants like Mashu, or you can force enemy to attack someone by using Kiritsugu's Scapegoat

in the case of cards that provide effects with a 80% chance, you can rectify that with Ozy

Enkidu is just fucked because you will never know if his Buster UP will boost his quick or his arts

Quetzalcoatl, Gorgon and Taiga rate up starting soon, but DW can't bait me with this, I'm waiting for King Hassan (the most gar assassin).

I never realized that the Limited Gacha will also be special limited gacha per day like last year. I didn't remember about it, so I brushed it off.

I hope I still have luck leftover to get Ishtar.

So it appears that MHXA's skills are Healing Gain for three turns and a Heal, Instinct, and decreasing star weight on one character and giving the team an attack buff. Support Berserker? Any ways, so far it doesn't look like she's anywhere near top tier, though maybe her Passive Skills and her hit count is excellent.

Bought enough quartz to blend with maintenance for another 10-roll. Picked up a Marie and a Heracles spook, so not completely empty-handed. Looks like MHX really doesn't want to meet the darthzerker.

On another note, among 5-star zerkers, we have quite the family. Brotoki, Mama Raikou, Uncle Vlad, Edgy teen Cu Alter, Nanny Nightingale, and now Imouto X.

I keep trying to play this game and I keep realizing I shouldn't. It's not really F2P-friendly, considering how much stamina you have to blow to get a single quartz from a story stage. I asked my friend about it (if you've ever seen someone in the possible guest unit list named "ILUVJEANNE" that's him), and he told me I should probably give up if I'm not willing to spend money. And he's been playing mostly straight through from shortly after release. I just deleted it a minute ago, after not having any good luck at all.

It's not like I don't have money to burn, because I have a job and they just LOVE giving me more shifts than the rest of the non-managers, but if I'm going to spend it on a mobile game, I'd rather it be on something with A) no language barrier and B) a better gacha. So FF Record Keeper, which I'm 16 months into with a crap luck streak I JUST broke 2 days ago, but at least my earlier luck's been good-enough that I can hoard and then go a little crazy on anniversary.

It's actually not that bad IMHO. Unlike most other games, units 3-star and below are endgame viable, and so are the 4-star event servants. We also get quite a bit of quartz over time from login rewards etc. - it's probably the main source of quartz, not free quests. The only thing F2P-unfriendly is collecting a specific rare character due to the low rates.

I've been playing almost since release, and I have a very good stable. Granted, I'm probably on the luckier end of things, but bear in mind that I went 3 months before I saw my first 5-star, and had no 4-stars before that apart from a free giveaway.

I have to agree in that, the only time I've paid money was for the paid gacha for new year's and if anything Xuanzang has been a half-tank that makes grinding against assassins easier, with the tanking being possible by other 4* just as well. Hell, the setup I'm using for grinding chocolates right now is Mashu, Euryale, and two Atalantas. No 5* in sight!

I just rerolled and got Carmilla and Marie as my 4*, and then Euryale and Caesar as 3*. So maybe I'll try this rabbit hole once again. And yeah, I'll keep being F2P and just play the long long game.

Well if it makes you feel better being f2p. I have 12 SSRs rn(15 if Vlad didn't spook 3x). And I'm f2p for a year and a half, only rolled for guaranteed gacha twice since Jack(and a spooked Vlad).

Unfortunately, it seems to be a rule that any Seibah Saber must be subpar. Mana Burst + Useless Instinct + NP charge and bonus damage versus Huge enemies isn't a great skill set, and his Excalibur doesn't have the NP refund that makes Seibah worthwhile.

Still gonna roll for him when the Cuzerker gacha comes up.

I wouldn't say subpar for stuff like OG saber, who still has one of the strongest NPs in the game despite 0 buffs :v

Mansaber just.. skipped one of the most important parts of her kits, compared to Boobsaber who forewent the most useless part for NP Charge. It's a really, really stupid change that will only make him slightly usefull for hand farming except mordred already did that. and better.

This is making me so annoyed and angry at DW for so many reasons, related to bait Gacha'ing so much in a row that I wouldn't have the quartz to roll for this. I SO DID NOT EXPECT THIS, ESPECIALLY AN ATELIER COLLAB.

I so freaking hope this is an April Fool's joke. And if it is, goddamn this is so elaborate.

Edit: yep, goddamn cirnopedia. got to check in-game. I mean why would they collab without an actual event right? and honnoji meiji around the corner. DW wouldn't be that too much of an evil company right?(prolly) This honestly threw me off a second, cause I also am expecting my P5 CE game to come, and hasn't arrived yet.

Good News for new players, Fate/Grand Order has been officially announced for an English Release.
Bad News for old players, it's a different new server, and no account transfer.

I'd not hold on hope for that, honestly. I'd like to stress Granblue is atypical for a reason, namely being it's a flash game and not an actual mobage. ACTUALLY doing what granblue has done is probably unlikely for a number of reasons, especially with something like F/GO where dual text would probably be a huge hassle. And like, double the size of the game.

I'd also note it's extremely nebulous why the hell Granblue even did what it did, which is part of why it's so odd. Certainly wasn't for a US audience, i'll tell you hwat.

He wasn't exactly mentioned IIRC. One of the students had a knight class, so people assumed it was Tristan.

Anyways, the 5-star ppl are expecting is Kiara, because Emiya Alter is also in the event servants.

Or DW can cuck, and do multiple 5-stars like Summer, all Alter Egos + Kiara.

Event page has been updated with full details:

Event runs from 1-17 May.

5* Meltlilith, 4* Passionlip and 4* non-limited Suzuka Gozen will be in gacha.

BB has a new class - Moon Cancer, which fills in the Ruler-Avenger-Moon Cancer triangle. Melt & Pash are Alter Egos - weak to knight classes and strong to horsemen.

Decided to ignore the CCC gacha and roll for Tamamo instead. Got another Liz, which I'm happy with.

As for the event itself... they've taken the Prisma event and somehow made it more irritating, what with everything being endgame levels and random debuffs on your characters (and on occasion a buff). This is going to be a long slog.

I was only on London at the start of the event, so I went and sped through everything on 50% AP, and I ended up getting more stones than I ever thought I'd need. I thought wrong. However, I did roll right before the event and got a Tama, so I guess that's just luck for you.

Rashomon Event returns, with some changes. New challenges for people that cleared the final chapter of the main storyline, the raid battle now resembles modern raids with damage carrying over even if you party wipe, and new daily missions. Shuten and Ibaraki will be the week's bait.

EDIT: Oh, right, most important part: Fou ATK/HP bonuses are being increased to +2000. System is a bit complicated: first 1000 ATK and HP are gained through the usual 1-3* Fous. Anything after that can only be done with special 4* Fous, that seem to give +20.

From the starter roll, you'll likely want to get a Berserker. Heracles is the best of the bunch, but Tamamo Cat and Lancelot are bot still decent, maybe more for farming but still good.
If you'll reroll the first non-tutorial roll then while all 5* are decent (With Artoria- er, Altria and Altera being kind on the lower spectrum of good) you'll want to have either Jeanne for her innate Ruler-class tankiness, or literal easy mode enabler Waver (Zhuge Liang).

Pretty much this, but Lancelot wasn't available at launch - he was one of the first new servants to be added. There are many 3-star servants that are pretty good as well, though. Pretty much any silver in the Archer class has a niche, and Cu Chulainn (Lancer) is famous for being nigh-impossible to kill.

Well, the easiest thing to answer is "which of the free 4* Servants do I want".

(https://ddx5i92cqts4o.cloudfront.net/images/1bj1p82uf_free_four_star_servants.png)

These are the potential Servants that you are guaranteed to get on your first 10 roll. I haven't used all of them particularly much, so take my suggestions with some salt. I'll note which ones I actually do have.

Siegfried is very bleh. His main issue comes from the fact that his kit centers around fighting dragons, which doesn't come up that often (except in the second Singularity, but a lot of people have found that the 1* Assassin Sasaki Koujiro is more useful for dealing with the dragons, hence the memes). His other skills include a NP generation skill for himself, which is okay considering that he at least has two Arts cards, and a self heal/cleanse skill which is always useful.

D'Eon's main utility is as a tank, and they're very good at it, with an Evasion/defense buff skill, a cleanse/debuff resistance skill, and an aggro/self heal skill, along with their fairly good debuff/charm NP. Their damage output is okay, but really, that's not what they're there for.

*I own EMIYA* EMIYA is a fairly okay, at best, AOE Archer at the beginning, but the designers of the game recognized that he kind of sucked, so he gets quite a few power ups in the form of Interludes and Strengthening Quests throughout the game (though it will take some time to get those in the English release). When he's fully powered up he's quite good, with evasion skills, Star Generation+Crit damage skills, and a one turn All Card Performance up skill. His NP also hits pretty hard after its upgrade, does a decent attack debuff, and has enough hits to generate a fair number of crit stars, and he's pretty good at generating NPs with his 3 Arts cards.

*I own Liz* Elizabeth is /quite/ good in a Female team: her first skill is an attack buff that can be upgraded to double the buff for female characters other than herself, and she has a good defense down skill. She's also more survivable than most, what with her good HP and her Guts skill. Her damage isn't /quite/ up to par, but it's not bad, and her 3 Buster cards means that she still packs a punch. Her NP is delightfully idoltrash. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWOFeCf393U)

Marie Antoinette is... all right? Very tanky, with her second skill giving her Invincibility for three hits and a small HP regen, and her third skill gives a debuff resistance to mental effects and a larger one time heal, and her first skill is a bleh Charm effect on male characters. Her NP is useful, though, because it deals damage, removes debuffs from the entire party, gives a small heal, and has a unicorn.

*I own Saint Martha, but haven't really used her* Another tank with self heal/debuff resistance, party heal/cleanse, and enemy buff removal+defense down. Her NP isn't anything special, just being AOE damage+defense down. Also, she's one of the Servants whose third skill is locked behind a quest because DW sucked at balance way back when.

Stheno kind of blows. I don't really care to go into details with her, but I would say that if there was one Servant you should absolutely reroll, it would be Stheno.

*I own Carmilla* Carmilla's pretty decent as a debuffer. She gets a NP drain skill from the get go, the same defense debuff skill as Liz, and, later, a crit chance debuff+NP stars per turn skill. Her NP is fairly good, dealing a decent amount of damage, healing herself, and giving herself an attack buff, but it's especially useful against female enemies. Her big flaw is that, for an Assassin character, her crit star generation kind of blows. That, and (for me personally) her attack animations are really boring.

If you roll Heracles, you are good. You are good if you roll Heracles, Rolling Heracles means that you are good.

Seriously, Heracles is a 5* Servant pretending to be a 4* Servant. Does massive amounts of damage and survives a lot of shit. That's pretty much all you want from a Berserker. If you max his bond with him, it takes /forever/ to kill him. He is good. He is very good.

Tamamo Cat is surprisingly good for a character whose character art is literally fanservice. Pretty strong, has a NP debuff skill, and can increase her survivability some with her third skill. Her NP, aside from being funny as hell, is a pretty good AOE Quick NP that gives her crazy regeneration for three turns, with the downside of stunning her for two of those turns. Her big downside is that she has the standard Berserker flaw of being fragile, and her defense skill and HP regen doesn't quite offset her fragility, but otherwise I'd give her a thumbs up.

So, in short, for your first 4*s, I would say that you should keep d'Eon, Liz, Tamamo Cat, and EMIYA (with the caveat that it will take some time for EMIYA to truly get good), you should probably keep Marie, Martha, and Carmilla, you should only keep Siegfried if you want a bit of oomph against the enemies in France, you should absolutely re-roll if you get Stheno, and you would be absolutely nuts not to keep Heracles, who would be the only 4* Servant I would consider being worth the headache to reroll for.

I'll note that of all the servants Sect just talked about, I believe only D'eon, Camilla, and Martha were in the launch first roll, and it's possible they'll use that.

I personally find it doubtful that they're going to do exactly the same things as they did at the beginning of the Japanese release, because why would anyone waste their time with a game that will only give you a free roll for a single Servant when they can wait for a couple of months before they have the first roll be a 10 roll with a guaranteed 4* Servant and 4* CE?

Well, aside from that being the death knell of the English release, that is.

EDIT: I am trying to find a list that shows Servants by release date, but no luck. I'm still betting on them having at least the 10 guaranteed 4*s, since DW learned pretty hard that their release of FGO was pretty garbage up until around Okeanos and was mostly coasting on diehards and fanboys. If it wants a chance to survive in the English market it'll need to do far better than its Japanese release.

I'll second the "why would they bother with literal on-release stuff" sentiment, if only because it was confirmed that the client would have all the QoL upgrades JP currently has. Which will probably mean the enhanced starter roll, 3 SQ for each roll and such.

I mean I could start with how POTK global was a thing that happened and that Localization companies are not very good at their job, but....

If there's been a confirmation of QoL, that's good. (though most of the menu qol happened before starter change I think.)

Edit: like look- I understand 'this is not rational' but frankly off of experience I usually see global versions do very irrational things, and there's a lot of points in the timeline we could be dropped. I am fully not expecting 1:1 parity with JP version, even on menus tbh.

What also gets me is in the first trailer there's a mentionof Agateram on the name of Camelot's singularity but I'm sure it's meant to be Airgetlam, Badivere's NP and a reference to an Irish myth about a king that needed a silver arm implanted to be a king.
Should we be prepared for a crap localization on behalf of Aniplex of America, then?

On top of the starter roll, you get to choose a 4*. That's startlingly generous.

I was expecting them to leave that out if they did starter, yeah that's a really good pitch.

You probably don't need to actually reroll that much, but they're also chucking like 40 quartz so :v

Yeah with the gift quartz I'm rerolling for waver or bust. But the second free 4* is neat, specially since JP had it while HK didn't.

Honestly, anyone who played long enough to have that DEFINITELY did not get a free 4* on roll.

So I was expecting one or the other, not both.

Seems like rerolling isn't too difficult.  I think the problem comes with f/go's notoriously low 5* rate for Servants; it seems there's a base 5% chance for 5*, but even if you pull a 5* there's a 4 in 5 chance you get a Craft Essence (think equipment) instead.  I'm sure the people who've actually played the game here have a better idea, though.

Why is Waver so sought after?

In short: he's the best non-limited support in the game, probably the best support in the game if it's a defensive fight frankly, and overall an extremely strong caster.

in long: he boosts both attack and massively boosts defense, all while filling your NP bar which is super important. He has a flat 50% NP burst without attacking and it's really ridiculous. To top it off, his Noble Phantasm also delays enemy noble phantasms and can occasionally prevent them from doing anything.

He's really, really good. He's basically the standout choice among casters and by far the strongest estimated release servant.

Post by: Zengar Zombolt on June 26, 2017, 12:37:27 AM
The thing that will define how much inmediate value will he have will be if he has his skill buffs - On release, they didn't give any NP (Not sure about the crit buff). The buffs were so needed, he got them for free without the need for doing an interlude.

Now, he'll still have some issues during Orleans because dragons are riders and it's full of them, but. :V
Title: Re: Fate/'Murica Orduh: Building walls to make 'Nime great again
Post by: Zerviscos on June 26, 2017, 03:18:59 AM
Yea, Orleans will be a problem for Waver, but as long as you got Regend Kojirou it won't be. Plus his scalability in the endgame is so high, he's practically still the all-around support than Merlin being buster-oriented.

After Waver, I plan to just spend my quartz in fgo US for Okita, then Jeanne Alter, then Merlin, and anyone else after that, reliving the memeteam in US. My only worry tbph isn't getting the 5-star servants themselves, but getting the 2030 CEs. I've been lucky in JP so far getting 4 copies. lmao.

At the very least I can focus on 3-star servants, something I haven't really done in JP except my favorite 3-star Ushi.

5 stars are definitely overall better than 4-stars, but there are several 4-stars that are as good or better than many 5-stars. Heracles is one of these good ones due to his Berserker class and good skills for survival. He also has a stat growth curve that is good for the early game.

Edit: Told myself I would reroll until I got a 5-star, and who shows up after 5 cycles but my first JP 5-star, Altera. Well, since she showed such devotion, I can hardly leave her behind, can I?

as a whole, honestly, if it's gold it's good enough in many cases.

However, a 5* is usually gauranteed quality bar a few exceptions, since that pool is usually filtered out of trash by 'limited' servants. 4*s... welll....

Alright, between the first 10-pull and the second you get with starter orbs, I've got an account with 5* Vlad, 4* Camilla, 4* Siegfried, and a good amount of 4* CEs.  Solid keep, I think?

And I read earlier that we're still getting a pick-a-4* sooner or later too, which is nice.

EDIT: I will say this: if you pair Siegfried with Saint George (Georgios, whatever), you'll have a really effective duo. Siegfried is based around killing dragons, and George is a tank that turns enemies into dragons.

Decided to try this out for kicks. Ended up not rerolling because of the long tutorial with 300 Mb download, but managed to get Liz and Heracles with the tutorial roll which is a decent enough start I guess? Rolling 2 30-quartz rolls afterwards and getting only Siegfred and a bunch of other 3*'s left a bit of a sour taste but oh well I got a 5* craft essence which is worth something perhaps. I did manage to add one of each of the 5*s except for Vlad as a friend so I'll have fun using them as supports.

So far the gameplay seems decent enough, although a fast-forward-animation option would be really useful - is there one hidden in the menus?

One shotting the boss in the exp farming map was pretty fun - I can see why Waver is great if he lets you get your NPs off more often.

The tutorial should have pointed out the fast forward option to you. When you select cards, on the top right corner of the screen there'll be a play icon. Hit it, and it'll turn into a fast forward icon.

Yep, she's only unlocked in the story gacha after Septem aka Rome. Two 4-stars is fine for enjoying the story, plus Emiya has a damage boost in many events later on, and you'll get your choice of another free 4-star later. So saving it is perfectly fine. You can lean on friend supports too if necessary.

Out of all the things to retain from on-releaae FGO, the one that upsets me the most is the old class dailies. The only reason I can imagine why they were kept is because the 40 AP version of the newer ones have relatively stronger opponents, but it hurts the hunt for skill gems and many drops a lot.

Higher level gems only drop from silver and gold mobs, which the 10 ap doesn't have, though.

Agartha has been released, as is the first three Servants from the chapter. Assassin seems to be fairly decent, with Liz's Defense down skill, Imperial Privilege, and a Charisma skill that gives Quick up to her allies (but not her). Berserker is quite interesting, as a support Berserker with Charisma, a team Buster up with a bonus versus a certain group of enemies, and a self debuff resistance and NP gain up.

Caster is... ah. Yeah. Crap. NP gauge down + Arts buff to self, Charm all male enemies + increase defense, and a Guts skill that decreases damage from "King" characters, along with a AoE NP that does bonus damage against Kings while having the lowest attack rating among 5*s. She really wasn't lying about herself.

But still, thanks DW for the Extra slot. So the world can know my shame of getting dupes of servants I don't even use much anymore.

This has a primer on growth curves in it.

There's also a hidden damage modifier that make certain classes do more damage than other classes (I really don't like it, but them's the breaks).

Well I've burned through the story and have hit the "empower servant" part of the game.  I'll miss getting 3k exp for a bunch of soldiers I could one shot though.

Kiyohime got me through stage 1+2, but I think it's more because I have a CE that gives +60% NP charge at the start of the fight.  Makes it really easy to burn everything.

Friend Code is 633,379,944.  Though I'll probably be slow to properly level stuff outside my snek army.

In my opinion, Septum, the third storyline, is much easier than Orleans, so you shouldn't have too much trouble with getting through it. It's just long. And boring. And poorly written. Thankfully, the first three Singularities are the worst written, and starting with the next Singularity, Okeanos, the writing improves (can't say the same for the translation).

On the subject of NPs, can you still upgrade an NP with an unascended Servant even if the base Servant has some ascensions in them, or do they have to have the same ascension level too? (Not that it matters too much to me right now, since I haven't started grinding out XP gems yet.)

Also, I love how my phone rotates the numpad without actually moving the buttons out of the numpad configuration, so I can only hit 1-6. So much for having birthday quotes.

You can level NPs regardless of whatever ascension they're in, so long as it's a duplicate copy.

He comes back a lot and also has 2 other versions at lower rarity. If you... really want Gil, you can certainly save for him.

Frankly, he's mostly only useful at first for Nerofes Final. He'll get better later, but he'll have come back.

So yeah, honestly he's not worth rolling for unless you really want to do Nerofes final.

Yea, I've been waiting for this. They were already teasing us with Artoria and Jeanne Alter's outfits in Shinjuku, it was bound to happen. If anyone still hasn't ascended Mash to 4-star, they need to do it if they want the outfit, because it's only applicable for her ascended form.

Dedication to the waifus. Plus, Jeanne is a little bit easier to level because she only needs monuments and whatever the other statuette is, so it's easy to level her up without grinding much at the expense of leveling other Servants

I am quite addicted to this game now. But man, this is a bad look in regards to gacha.

I've been lucky with my account so far (rerolled till I got Jeanne, pulled 2 Kaleidos, spooked by Emiya and then got Gil with 90 quartz), but it can only go down from there. I was playing with the gacha simulator at https://fate-go.gamerch.com/%E8%AA%B2%E9%87%91%E5%8F%AC%E5%96%9A%EF%BC%88%E6%9C%9F%E9%96%93%E9%99%90%E5%AE%9A%EF%BC%89
and these pulls are mostly awful.

Picked this up a couple of weeks ago after deciding I should see what all the hype is about and since the U.S. version was out. It's definitely more fun than some of the other cell games I've played. There's also something oddly appealing about murdering everything with my Tamamo Cat and berserkers in general. Ah, and my friend code is 836,681,458.

Anyway, I like to think my luck is decent at the moment. I managed to summon a Zhuge Liang last week and yesterday I managed to summon Nero on the only summoning I've done for Nero Fest so far. I'm too attached to Saber Lily to actually use Nero yet though.

Congrats, you win.

Saber Lily isn't as good as Nero, but this is Fate G/O so waifu tier is most important.  Especially since you've got Waver to lead you to victory.

For people having issues with the Expert Qualifiers, I feel AoE NP teams are the best choice.  The Chimeras aren't bad if you kill them before they get their crit up boosts, and unleashing a dual buster (or buster+lancelot) NP on them destroys the crew.

I figured as much, though that feeling was pretty much confirmed earlier when I had someone's Nero supporting me. I've heard very good things about Waver as well, so I'm definitely gonna level him once I get the chance (and when I have enough levels to give him a decent spot on my team).

Main Event's up. Girl's Night Out is surprisingly sedate compared to Diva With the Beautiful Voice +1; two Riders and a Berserker means Assassins can ride the day if Lancers take out the first two battles (and preferably Berserker). Probably also helps that Boudica's NP is a pure buff, Tamamoe's NP stuns her; and all three have long timers for their NPs (compared to Mata Hari's 3-tick NP and Eliza's 4-tick NP). Probably should avoid getting whacked by Tarasque, though.

Muscle Language, though... You'll probably want a Photon Ray or two to nuke the Berserkers, because I'm guessing they hit a lot harder than Lu motherfucking Bu.

Yes.  In fact if you want to full upgrade it you'll need to get 2 drops, since the shop only sells 3.

(It's not really worth maxing out though.  Reviving with 1000hp instead of 500hp doesn't mean much.)

So... would bringing two Alteras into Muscle Language be considered overkill? :V (I did need two chained Photon Rays to kill the last wave before they do anything disastrous though, so there's that.)

So back in NA land, I find I'm actually using Siegfried.  His type advantage just barely makes Balmung better then Gae Bolg damage wise, and allows him to kill the thing in 2 turns instead of three, so Kiyohime is buffed for when she burns the three Romes.  I was not expecting this.

Admittedly part of this is 'we're in early game', but as far as the early game gold boobytraps, Siegfried is frankly a gold saber in a game where we don't even have any AOE sabers in 3* yet.

And, also double frankly, the scariest fight we're going to have that's 'mandatory' for a lore is going to be a Dragon Lancer in about 2 events.

Sieg had his places occasionally, he just... uhm, falls off.

Yeah level I'm sure level is part of it.  If I ascended Cu a few more times I'm pretty sure he'd be better.  And I'm totally going to ascend Cu rather then the guy who just barely deals more damage with type advantage AND a bonus against dragons.

But for now Sieg gets his moment to shine I guess.

Only if you have both Alteras use Tactics B, you Code Cast Instant Enhancement MAX on the stronger Altera, and your third has some sort of absurd attack buff (like, say, Shakespeare's Enchant A but better) to make those Photon Rays hurt a lot worse.

Even then, it's arguable.

Against the current Rome set, it might not kill off Saber, but Lancer and Berserker are child's play to wipe if you've got a good, levelled Saber with their NP.

It's a bit harder to grind Glorious Rome simply because Saber is, well, a Saber, and you aren't going to bring an Archer unless as a last resort.

Post by: Leon゠Helsing on August 01, 2017, 07:10:21 AM
So far my Altera's only up to first ascension though, so my strategy will invariably be "kill them before she dies in a bullshit tornado (actually a typhoon)" since RNG likes to throw me a curveball surprisingly often.

For the Grand Finals, should I bring a Gilgamesh support or go Twin Photon Rifle again? I'm gonna have to bring Liz up to snuff though so she can hopefully last a while as support. Right now she's at 42/50, where's a good place to grind Dragon Fangs?
Title: Re: Fate/'Murica Orduh: Building walls to make 'Nime great again
Post by: Ionasal kkll Solciel on August 01, 2017, 09:24:13 AM
Photon rifles. The Dragon is a Lancer, so you should definitely avoid having an Archer in your front lines. Sure, Ea can wipe the floor with Saber and Berserker, but it's not as great versus Lancer; and even if you have Kaleidoscope on Gil, you'll still need a turn to get NP charge.

(If you haven't faced Glorious Rome yet, it's only two battles; 1st versus a giant Dragon, 2nd versus Ceasar, Nero's uncle, and Romulus.)

Having just done Grand Finals, I can say safely say Gil is overrated.  Bring Altera.  Sure you have to fight an uber Nero at the end, but the fight starts with 3 high attack low hp lancers, followed by Proto Cu.  Who happily uses Protection from Arrows.  Better to obliterate them fast and use your full team to murder Nero legit, then get whittled down by enemy servants bit by bit.

The only real difficulty in using twin photons is the enemy Gil, since Ea will wreck anyone not protected; and the whole Archer beating Saber thing. Seriously, fucking Ea should not have that low of a cast timer.

In related news, I accidentally brought my bond grind team into the Grand Finals, because I thought I hit Glorious Rome. Somehow made it to Alexander and Nero, but two level 1s and Shielder do not make anything resembling a team that can kill mega-Nero. Ah well, still have one win against it with a more powerful team, and that's all I care about, even if it cost me all my Command Seals.

Now to grind out a few more gold medals so I can at least get another Crystallized Lore.

So right now I could conceivably bring the following to the Grand Finals:
  • Elisabeth Lv. 50
  • Altera Lv. 70
  • Support: Gilgamesh Lv. 60/Altera Lv. 60/Jeanne Lv. 70
  • Emiya Lv. 50
  • Heracles Lv. 50/Carmilla Lv. 50
  • Mash Lv. 40
To be honest, I've been slacking a bit at the very beginning since I was a bit busy with my other game (Ishtaria) so right now this is about as far as I could bring them up to. Do I still have good chances of winning?

Should be okay. Biggest problem is probably fitting everyone into the team with decent CEs. I completed it with my Lv60 Altera (K-scope), Lv50 Emiya (Hollow Magic) and a support K-scoped Lv60 Lancelot, with Mash filling in as an invicibility button.

For CEs, if you have Scarf of Magdalena (or whatever the name of that CE is), it can help stall out too. Many of the enemy servants are males.

Okay, so I used the following loadout:
Win record on Grand Finale without using any Command Seals is 2-1. The win really hinged on Elisabeth having her NP charged up after the initial wave against Nero's guards alongside Altera. Depending on luck, the win can be really down to the wire. In both cases credit for the final blow against Nero goes to Emiya.

Honestly though, I think I feel more comfortable grinding Expert Finals for gold medals rather than the Grand Finale, even if the latter's more efficient.

Atleast u stopped at 160. It took me probably 300+ quartz I think before I got Summer Nero. I rolled on the 9th, cause I thought my Bday luck will help my RNG. It didn't, it was only the day after using the free quartz on the crate that day. I wasn't gonna stop rolling till I got her and I was even trying to finish the EoR chapters that I didn't even started till now, cause I don't have any 5-star summer servants...in fact this is also the first time I got any summer servants at all, I got none from 2016....Orion spooked me.

Another time I realized how disgusting the gacha is again. I got like 3 dupes for the past 4 months, with this Waver being the latest. On the bright side, I got Summer Nero and also my very first Limited/Zero Over after 2 years. Bad thing about this is that I'm almost nil on quartz, I might not get Maid Alter, which I heard is a Rider. And boi, do I lack gold Riders. I'm still using Marie in the support for the past 2 years, while Ushi as my main Rider.(I don't wanna Kintoki/SantAlter).

I'll probably just save for apoc.

Jing Ke is a pretty serviceable assassin, and Ushiwakamaru is the best 3* Rider (Medusa and Alexander aren't too far behind, being AoE Riders) and, until you get Rider Kintoki, the most reliable high damage Rider you'll likely have for some time.

Moonlight Festival is the only C.Star Gen 5* CE in our free line up, and while honestly, 2030 is better- it's not free. I really, really suggest getting a few copies if you can.

We also have that month ahead of time they may be trying to force out of us: but I think we're still on decent overall pace? It's hard to tell.

Fuck me, that's basically what I got on my first roll. Even the two dupe Moon Cell Automatons. (Though you have me beat with that other boost CE.)

I have another 10-roll in about six quartz... After that, well, I don't have enough missions or AP lying around to make another pass unless one of the login streak bonuses give me another 30.

EDIT: Nope, no Orion. I have six Mooncell Automatons now, though, three Seal Designation Enforcers...

So it's most efficient to run the 5 AP if you don't have multiple Moon Goddess' Baths lying around? And if you have a ton of Moon Cell Automatons, it's more efficient to just put them on everyone than make a MAX one, right?

I... may have gone a bit overboard with grinding dumplings. Nearly cleared out the store, save for four or so Sun Fous. If I wasn't so bloody tired last night, I might have gotten enough to clear the store outright. There was way too many SP dumpling drops, though; something like three-quarters of my dumpling drops were SPs.

Now I'm imagining Gudako taking those three tons of dumplings and shoving them into Orion's face to pay for the stuff in the event store.

I could clear the store, but that would require golden apple and good luck, so that 5k dumpling CE is going to have to stay there.

I wasn't even near to 'clear the store', as I stopped farming some time ago. I runned out of patience for some reason and I just got the things I thought were more useful for me. Oh well. I'm not that lazy most of the time regarding this kind of thing. Mea culpa.

I didn't even get close to finishing the store - just picked up a few Archer monuments. No worries for those who didn't, though - if pacing is anything like JP, you can do fine taking it easy. It's better to save apples for events in which there's an actual event servant up for grabs.

Well, the only time we had apples in NA was during Gilgamesh event, but it was 10 max AP apples, so...

Honestly, the only reason I got nearly the entire thing was because nearly all of my AP during the entire duration of the event was expended - basically there was only around four hours maximum that I had max AP and not doing anything about it. Nothing but grinding the hell out of the wolves for most of the event, and a couple of Orions.

Also, did not know that you get Saint Quartz for Bond levels above 5 (though presumably it's just the Bond CE at 10?).

Also also, ugh Stheno's second Interlude. Three Medusas for the second part, then I presume three Medusas twice for the third part?! Should have picked Carmilla for the free 4*...

In non FGO news, details about the sequel to Extella, Extella Link, are being released. I'll post Famitsu screenshots when I can, but it has the Hakunos wearing explorer outfits, and one of the new Servants is Saber Charlemagne.

Pinning it back to FGO, it seems that there's going to be a bigger push to include Charlemagne's knights: Astolfo is already present, Roland made a cameo in FGO, and Bradamante, the female knight, was leaked to appear in FGO some time in the future.

Not that it mattered much when I got a second Stheno during the event roll.

Well at least you have a decent Archer.

That said though, I've played maybe about two hours of the game over the last day or so and in a sudden bout of good luck I somehow managed to drop four of the five Octoplet Crystals I needed to ascend Nero while farming at Gaul.

I mean, Robin Hood is at least very good at single-target nuking if you give him one of the better "Start with X% NP charged" or a Sorcery Ore or something. As long as Poison procs.

If you give Arash something like a Nightless Rose, he'll survive casting Stella. If you give him Verdant Sound of Destruction (or other Buster+ CEs), damage buffs plus the fact that he has literally the highest multi-target multiplier in the game can wipe third-round boards real fast.

My luck has spiked for the year on JP -
2 tickets and a 10-roll = Okita NP upgrade,
2 tickets on Nerofest gacha = Brynhildr.

Granted I went from January to summer rerun without a 5-star, but this is a bit ridiculous. Going from having too few Lancers 1.5 years ago to having every limited Lancer both 4-star and 5-star feels hella weird.

In JP news:
We'll be getting 10 quartz soon from the live event.

10 mil download campaign also includes another 30 quartz. This is from a Twitter post that needed to get 100K retweets by next week to get the quartz.

It was done in under an hour. Never underestimate the power of free quartz.

More painful than now tbph. If you're not in a rush, events usually start to pile you up with mats if you can wait for them, and their nodes usually have better yields. In my case, ascension mats are least of my worries rn in JP, and most I have are abundant at 100+, even newer ones.

IMO, skill gems are the true rare commodities in-game besides Lores and Grails. They're barely in most events asides drops from nodes, and non-existent in their shops. You'll find out later that you've stockpiled hundreds of pieces and monuments because of how many servants you have, but skill gems will always almost be gone. The only events that usually has them are ones with token boxes. Which is why people will farm more than 50 boxes to even 100, because they also give exp cards, ascension mats, qp, and a lot more alongside it.

That so? I'll have to consider that then. I'm stuck in the "four or five stars are better" train of thought though, haha.

Also, got that last crystal, so I managed to ascend Nero and do her second interlude (golems have never been more annoying). Now all I have to do is wait for the NA version to implement Okeanos and London so that I can somewhat reliably farm Phoenix Feathers and Baby Homunculi in order to ascend Tamamo Cat and Nero to their third stages.

There are a ton of characters that are 3* and below that are top tier. You have Leonidas and George who are top tier tanks, you have Cu the Immortal Dog, you have Headhunter Ushiwakamaru, you have pretty much all of the Archers. There are very few characters that are just not good (Geronimo being the most egregious).

Ah, alrighty. The biggest gaps in my line-up right now are my lack of training any of my lancers, archers, or assassins, so I'll do some research on my own as well to see who's worth training. That said though, thanks for the suggestions as well!

Taunting and tanking enemy NPs just so the main attackers can survive.

And it looks like I accidentally tossed my Phantom of the Opera for unknown reasons or methods; at least it was only stage 2, so only pieces and a few glod XP mats were lost.

You should lock any servant that you plan to keep.

So, instead of El Draque I managed to get NP3 Anne & Mary. 1) Should I stick a guts CE or a quick booster on them? 2) When's the earliest I can expect to get more homunculus babies?

I'd stick a quickbooster or NP charge on for now, there won't be many fights you actually need the guts CE.

I highly recommend the GUDAGUDA CE when it comes out in like a month for them, though. It makes for some disgusting damage and the bunny crew carried me pretty hard for everything I needed with it.

Urgh. I made one last roll with my last 30 quartz in hopes of at least getting one of the rate up Servants...

Fucking four Anchors Aweigh, and three dupe 3-star Servants later, I get two 4-star Craft Essences I already have and a new 5-star in Imaginary Around.

arrrgh

Rejoice, JP players, for Sakuravati has arrived as part of the Heaven's Feel collab. Quick-oriented AoE lancer.

Also, EoR3 stream is coming 14 October.

Who else got Sakuravati?

Because I didn't! .-.

Got Kiritsugu in the 10 roll, though. Almost had an heart attack when I saw a silver lancer card, thinking that I would turn gold like the assassin one.

Got a Parvati and a Penthesila on my first 10-roll after spending 32 tickets. :V
Unfortunately, she might be meme tier, but at least her final art using the alt costume is great.

According to an analysis on reddit, Parvati seems to be quite good. Her main flaws are that she does better with burst damage than with sustained card damage and the fact that there aren't really any good options for Quick support teams, unlike Arts and especially Burst.

I had the chance to try a full-level Sakuravati... and she's actually pretty good. Her NP gain is okay and she can have some nice buffs. Gilgamesh didn't stood a chance.

PD: The new master code is also pretty cool.

On the NA side of things, hand grinding is now half off for the week. Time to farm the hell out of them, then get fucked by the lack of special ascension mats (argh I just need a couple more of either claws or horeshoes and fuck that drop rate).

Earliest you can get more babies is during Halloween for 60 Cupcakes/baby; aside from that, homunculi will start appearing in London, with presumably an appearance in the Lancer dailies a few months after.

Should I worry about not being able to do the 20:00 UTC party quests? If I did my calculations right, over here at GMT +7:00 land it would be 3 freaking AM for me.

They changed how quests work.  They unlock at those times, but they last until you do them.

ALERT TO JP PLAYERS:

Epic of Remnant Ch. 3 is dropping in 2 minutes.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

So far, we have a new 3-star Lancer, 4-star "Archer", and 4-star Assassin. We get 12 quartz and 6 apples.

Open Reminder: While the foxiest wife is obviously choice, she goes on rate up a LOT over the course of the game, soonest being valentines next year, at the very least.

If you don't get her now, she's perma after london and you don't need to worry.




also okita soon

I'll finally have the Homunculus Babies needed to ascend Tamamo Cat a third time.

I've been waiting for this for so long. I'm glad I don't have to wait until London.

Halloween has arrived at JP, along with Osakabe-hime and MECHA ELISABETH!
I really wasn't expecting for a mecha version of Eli, but it looks cool. Though the event itself isn't challenging...

What's your opinion of both?

I'm frankly amazed Mechliza is an Alterego Servant, and a welfare at that.

I'd say it's a good sign that they're willing to release an otherwise luck-dependent class with no low-rarity representatives for free. Hopefully this means that they'll release other extra-class welfares - Rulers and Avengers so everyone can have at least one.

Guda Guda order is coming stateside on the 8th, because they want to take all your money before Christmas.  I've got quartz and tickets saved.  Let's hope for cherry blossoms for all.

This. I am not buying more quartz this year, so f me I guess, or get the same EX-level Luck as I did during NeroFES and somehow roll multiple SSRs on the one 10-roll I have.
