Games Fate/Grand Order

[Rikudou King]

Did anyone else have trouble with Yu Miaoyi's fight? It took me six battles with different combinations to eventually figure out a way to defeat her (Jeanne as the last standing, and just spamming her NP)...

Hessian Lobo NP3+Invencibility Pierce CE trivialized the Qin Shin Huang fight.

I had an easy time on Yu with Circe debuff clear + Tamamo CD refresh

Yu+Zerker fight was a bit strange, because Raikou with her double dmg buff destroyed Yu, but the the fiht against Zerker came down to Heracles last turn (Bond CE+Evade+Guts+Osiris)

I was having a bit of difficulty against old assassin, but then I read that his buff was removable and then Melt had a field day with that.

I had the most diifculty with the strategist fight who kept buffing the minions

Then, after the fight, I remembered I had Amakusa Shirou.

Also call me a bitch but I am totally using the next 4* ticket and the 5* ticket to reunite those two, specially since

Spoiler: smol xiang yu spoilers

His summoned version is his regular history one in the lostbelt one body

This was my strategy for the first few attempts, but a combination of lucky crits and specifically targeting Circe made it not work out. Only just dealt with the old man, strangely wasn't nearly as hard...

My third member was mash with xuanz zang on the back with the cleanse debuff mystic code so maybe I mispoke a little bi t

I just burned the 5 tickets to tru and get xiang yu and oh my god I´ve been 6 months without a new servant at all is fate mad that I am also playing geshin?

 

[Rikudou King]

Didn't even think about changing mystic code

Wep, finished the lostbelt - none of the other fights were as troubling as Yu Miaoyi. Summer Nero was basically the MVP, and the Qin Shi Huang fight was surprising easy. Hessian Lobo supported by Skadi and Waver took out two of his bars, which I hadn't expected since he was only at lv70. And Jalter finished it in one turn.

Roll-wise, got Yu after a couple of rolls, but no Qin Shi after 30...

 

[Kato756]

I am now officially 500 SQ withouth a single 5*, counting the 300 from skadi.

NGL, I think that if I get a repetead 5* in the upcomming GSSR (I have 14/43) I dont think I will ever spend money on FGO again.

Mostly cause Genshin´s gacha is way more fair (even if arguably their extra copies system is way way more predatory than FGOs)

 

[Jammin]

It's gatcha. It's all predatory. You should never spend money on any of it. It's not worth it. None of it's fair. It's all a scam. Etc etc.

That said I ended up rolling what I had for Consort Yu because she's super cute. Nothing. Which is fine.

Still not got around to playing any of the new chapter yet. May try to squeeze it in before Cyberpunk but I feel like that's not going to work out.

I reckon you can get through a good chunk of it, especially when Cyberpunk is delayed again

Can never rule it out but I think they're doing it for real this time.

I know, I keep a budget, and I always work with the idea of "well this game was free so I might spend the value of 1 regular game per year on it" for gachas, if I do like them.
As a collector i am just salty I got nothing new to play with. Oh well, I am using the time to lv up skills and servants I already have so its nice.

Anyway.

Onto this xmas.

PSA THAT THIS EVENT HAS NOT GOTTEN A RE-RUN IN JAPAN, FOR REASONS UNKNOW, AND ITS THE ONLY FREE RULER SO FAR SO FUCKING CLEAR LOSTBELT 1 ALREADY

ALSO THIS HAS FUCKING FANGS ON THE ROLETTE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW


3 TURN FARMING GUIDE

 

[Jammin]

Dammit. I was throwing the compensation quartz at Consort Yu and instead got this ruler guy that looks like the Monarch from Venture Bros.

 

[Kato756]

I just realized Jammin is Mozart and I am Salieri, raging to the skies about why our luck musical talent is so different

I will get Yu in the next 4 star ticket, and her husbando on the 5 if neither spook me until then.

Also for those capable of saving for waifus, I´d say a top tier one came out in Japan, so you might want to save some quartz if you are into this:

Spoiler: new jp servant

 

[Jammin]

Pretty generous of you to give me Mozart in that analogy Kato. If you only knew how much I suck at all forms of music.

[Kato756]

Dis 1 summon at new banner

BrASSmante came home

All is forgiven fgo come to papa

 

[Rikudou King]

Managed to get not only Bradamante, but two more Summer Martha, so she's now NP5! Also loving Taiga's return. Kind of curious who those servants were in the promo.

Im guessing they are the bonus servants?

Russia was teased by the regular people and Ivan and Anastasia are bonus servants.

This'll be fun

--- Double Post Merged, Dec 14, 2020, Original Post Date: Dec 13, 2020 ---

Im already on the 6th box.

Sure the nodes aren´t optimal now, but I have a fuckton of apples, and letting it all to when the optimal nodes open up never really worked out for me.

Also I want the Green Cubes for the CE on the shop, the dragon fangs for Arturias, XP for Quetz (just maxed brada), and the Proofs and Bullets on the store. Also the new material from china lostbelt, one nevre knows when you will need it

--- Double Post Merged, Dec 14, 2020 ---

btw @Rikudou King , heres the teams that I think it will appear based on bonus servants.


Greece: Quiron + Achilles

Russia: Anastasia + Ivan

Roma: ROMA + Caligula

Japan: : Yagyu + Hokusai

USA; Edison + Bunyan

"North Pole": Lily + Salter

France: Astolfo + Samson

Middle East (not exactly a country, but given the age difference I don´t know which country they would choose) : Darius + Arash

Americas (their area of expertise. Maybe "Pirate Land"?) : Collumbus + Blackbeard

Ireland: Cu + Scatchch

China: Red Hare + Wu Zeitan

Hektor, Santa Altera, Jaguar, Carmila, Babbage, Hans, Pethelesia, Atlantalter, and MHXX I have no idea

Edit: On second note, could Pethe and Altaalter be the "Anti-Achilles Nation"?

 

[Rikudou King]

So far Bradamante has been quite the fun servant. Not on the same level as Parvati, but still fun enough for some knock-off Quick memes...

 

[Kato756]

Well I got some of them right.

I am reallllllllllllly enjoying using Bradamante, her animations are sick, she even has a "carrinho de energia" (energy slide on the ground kick) which I love so much.

I think that what I like the most about her is her posture on her standing pose, skills, and attacks. She really feels like a knight battling, not just a waifu. OFC this is balanced by her bountifull NP.

I also enjoy her kit, being the "Simple yet self-sufficient" that I also like about Ivan and King Hassan, for example.

On box 22, farming around 5 per day but took a break today. By doing 5 everyday and arriving at 50 (so theres a leeway to do less on some days) I will be able to MLB the bond CE from the shop.

And talking about CEs, I dropped 4 already...just MLB one so it opened up a slot for bond CE

How you guys farming going?

 

[Rikudou King]

I'm taking it pretty slow, farming shop currency using natural AP, and have only gotten to box three. Waiting til the weekend to go all out, since I'll be off of work and all the good quests will be open by then.

On the plus side, I manage to get another Bradamante, which was nice.
