>Will the 4th Lost Belt take place in Notes?

>You read Notes didn't you?

everyone that plays gachashit should just kill themselves

>>14183363

>Kotomine Rasputin

That's the rumor. What class would he be? And what's the justification for us summoning him, as he's probably going to be a playable servant? I'd laugh if he was a 3 star, he would end up being another gacha spook.

>>14183402

Why yes of course Notes is my favorite gachashit.

>>14183407

He was supposed to be a mystic and holy man, can't wait for my Caster with Battle Continuation EX to arrive.

>>14183424

>Battle Continuation EX

>Guts (1hp, 5 times)

If I remember, the first time Rasputin was supposed to die was through poison, the second gunshots, the third drowned in a river, the fourth when they tried burning his body and it raised up, and the fifth when Kotomine tricked caster .

when are they gonna make another fate fighting game so I have a reason to pay attention to this franchise again?

>>14183648

It's already out in Japan. As an arcade cabinet exclusive

>>14183631

Hrmm, it would have to be a different skill then, Grandpa Hassan already has Battle Continuation EX and it's a one time revival with 3000 HP.

>>14183661

Well EX isn't exactly a skill level strictly in terms of power and function, it just means it can't be graded from E to A or whatever. Examples being Nightingale and Vlad having EX rank madness but can uphold conversations. So it just means it functions differently. I would say it could still be EX rank, but considering Rasputins legend it easily could be more than a one time revive.

>>14183679

It could be the same skill lore wise but as far as game play matters even though Nightingale and Vlad's Madness Enhancement effect are different in lore effect, the game play effect (a 12% boost in Buster Efficiency) remains consistent throughout. Thus, if Rasputin has the skill Battle Continuation EX it will function the same as Battle Continuation EX already does.

>>14183637

i'm speaking to him

>>14183631

>>14183424

Maybe they'll make a skill exclusive to him called like "Fall of the Royal Family" and make it give him Guts x3 or something along with being slightly better than Nero's Thrice Setting Sun

Or better yet, give him Thrice Setting Sun EX if he's going to be a 5 star and he gets more health back and gives a Def buff that stacks when he dies.

>>14183715

>>14183637

I think this is the one time ugandan knuckles got me to laugh.

>>14183824

I'm mostly speculating based on the date and title, but that's also an interesting idea. Perhaps this hypothetical Puppet King Mordred is where they'll introduce her Berserker variant. If that is what they go with I hope they take some cues from Fire Emblem's Mordred, i.e have her be a king that genuinely wants to help the people but can't because of the situation. (In this case, Morgana's manipulation.)

>I think the date even lines up perfectly with what we're given in Extella

Extella states out happened 14000 years ago, and the year is 2030 in Extella last I checked. It's off by 30 years but eh.

>If the enemies in Part 2, the Crypters, want to 'Supplant the Greater Human History' (ours) with their own, does this mean they're going to be taking the role of the 'heroes' in the Lostbelts, and we'll have to be the 'villains' making sure their doomed futures stay doomed so they can't succeed in their plan to supplant our history?

I sincerely hope the bad guys are more morally ambiguous this time. Nasu history lesson was nice but everyone barely felt like they weren't cardboard cut out villains of the demon wise. He explored the way that the Moon Cell performed reality trimming in Extella but didn't explore the moral consequences of banishing entire alternative histories to nothingness. Sounds much more fun then the singularities.

>>14183839

I feel like it wouldn't be Mordred's Berserker as much as introducing Morgana as a Caster and her introduction into the game. Or maybe even an alternative reality version of her that's not so bitchy? That aside I also Hope that Nasu learned from the original run especially Salomon that he can keep the overall plot incredibly serious and even dark at times, and use the optional events as tension breakers. One the worst part of F/GO story-wise right now is how light-hearted it feels in comparison to other works.

Also I hope Higashide doesn't fuck shit up again

>>14183955

>Introduce Morgana as a 5 star Caster

She has special My Room lines for the various forms of Arturia, Mordred, and Merlin

>She's either a nega-Merlin that focuses on debuffing enemies or the Quick equivalent to Merlin that makes Quick cards great again

>Her boss form in the Lostbelt is designed to specifically fuck over Merlin teams and will prioritize killing him

We can only hope. Alternatively the idea of a Morgana that actually likes her sister is nice too. There's an artist called Yorukun that does a lot of work with that idea, most of his pictures are of Morgana, Mordred, and Titty Arturia as a happy family.

>>14183363

Honestly If Gun God was made a servant I'd like it if he has shitty stats to match how he was one of the puniest beings around at that time. Also his NP should do crazy ass damage to anything with divine and/or foreigner class. Basically I want another Arash.

I've been researching a lot of Arthurian stuff for a game I plan to make one day, and recently I heard of a book that's supposedly written from Mordred's perspective/contains his/her journal entries or something. Anyone know what I'm talking about, I can't remember the name.

>>14184226

Some of the more lewd pictures have Arturia wearing a chain/collar so it's clear who's in control of the bedroom there. Arturia has a dick too.

>>14184424

The whole Salem singularity reminded me a lot of Codename: S.T.E.A.M. Really wish that game sold better. Didn't even break 25K in Japan.

>>14184571

I was more referring to a Quick version of Merlin that the boss form fucks Merlin over, but that all sounds great too

>>14183700

Fair point, that's true of every ability regardless of context. Perhaps it can be his noble phantasm - a stackable guts? Interested to see Kotoputin (Or Rastomine?) use black keys and shit too.

>>14185940

In the extra CCC Tamamo manga Shinji gets revived and becomes a rival character for Hakuno, eventually even helping him by defying the big bad that had control over his very existance.

New chapters never ever.

The PV for Lostbelt already had the narrator flat out say that, didn't he? "No one will help us because we are explicitly the villains" or something like that.

remember when typemoon made good games?

>>14186623

no

>>14186631

He might mean Good games in the same vein as Yoko Taro making good games - they're not good gameplay but fantastic stories

>>14186653

at least there games

>>14186655

But Type-Moon has made plenty of actual games even if you don't like visual novels.

>>14186656

sure but none of them being that good

>>14186603

Why is AJ doing le numale grimace?

Anon, I guarantee you will get Brun with your 5 tickets coming up in a couple days.

She needs you

>>14190431

>spent all my crystals and tickets trying to roll for Tamamo

>roll Jannu instead

>she spends all her time in room conversations talking about other men and god

No, you don't really want some 5 stars.

>>14190449

Wanting a waifu who is a 5 star and wanting any 5 star for gameplay are two different things anon. Jeanne's pretty good for the early parts as she just refuses to die, and once her NP gets buffed she becomes the poster child for art stall teams.

>>14190569

Is there a more boring way to play the game than art stall teams?

>>14190592

Placing Merlin in every single one of your teams?

>>14190449

>she spends all her time in room conversations talking about other men and god

It could be worse, at least she isn't talking about JEEG-KUN

>>14190884

She has 2-3 lines talking about him.

>>14190893

Don't those only play if you have Siegfried though?

>>14190921

Yeah, probably. That doesn't change the fact that Jannu is one of the few female servants that just doesn't have more than a friendly relationship with MC, even less so than frigid girls like Medea.

does the bond craft essence work for everyone or just the equipped servant?

>>14192150

I mean the craft essence that raises the amount of bond you get

>>14192150

If your question is "if you use a support servant who has the bond bonus CE will you get the bonus?" the answer is yes, it also stacks with your own. Retard

>>14192172

Wait I apologize I had to reread because your question was actually dumber then I thought. Did you think the bond bonus CE affected only the one servant it was equipped to? Did you even bother doing one round with it equipped to answer such an asinine question?

>>14195024

TANOSHI WA!

>>14195277

Agreed. Obvious tits aside, she's 168cm tall, which is pretty fucking tall for an anime girl.

I can't get Nursery Rhyme to work. My star generators can't generate enough to give her a decent crit rate aside from when she uses her first skill, and I don't have 2030. What do?

>>14196034

What are your Star Generators? If anything you -should- have Cursed Arm Hassan at the very least. If you're come up against Other Mages, swap him out with Hans and/or Halloween Liz. Also Support Jack because I assume you also don't have one of your own.

>>14196034

If you're using a support Jack the Ripper and still not getting enough stars I honestly can't understand how you're fucking up this badly. If you're just refusing to use supports you have the option of running the only good discount star generator in the game, Hassan of the Cursed Arm, or waiting for Rider Kintoki.

>>14196095

Hans isn't the best for reliable star generation until his innocent monster is higher. For Caster she's better at that one aspect but the rest of the kit doesn't help.

>>14196118

It isn't but with it close to maxed out along with Halloween Liz's close to maxed out it should give her a fair amount of stars. It's really the only options if he doesn't have a friend or two with maxed Jacks. And even then it's not wise to bring in Assassins to a mage fight

>>14196126

If you're bringing Casters to deal damage then you're fighting Assassins anyway so that much isn't a problem. It would be a problem though if you're using Riders to fight Casters but then unlike the other two cavalries, Riders can actually deal decent damage. But even then, CA Hassan has a 3 hit dodge like Cu so he can survive decently there, though his damage will be even worse than usual.

>>14196197

That's true, I forgot about his Dodge, I was thinking of the prospect of if he went down, there goes a good generator.

How do I unlock Brynhildr

pls

>>14199066

You open the servants profile, there will be a little lock on the right, click on it.

>>14199096

I don't have her profile

>>14199066

>>14199096

I think he means how to get her. You gotta roll the slots, man.

>>14199117

>male on futa

This is for gays in denial. Futa on female is OK because it combines the good parts of hetero (hot girl, and a dick being applied to said hot girl) and yuri (hot girl(s), and you don't have to see or hear a dude having sex).

What's the difference between the Neutral and Balanced alignments? Is there actually a difference or is this just the translators being weird again?

>>14200304

It's a minute Difference that only really comes up in specific skills or Boss battles; For example Quetzalcoatl in Babylonia takes 0 Damage from good Alignment and half damage from Neutral/Evil Servants. If you have say, Berserkerlot whose Alignment is Lawful Mad, he can circumvent that criteria entirely.

tl;dr like the Star/Earth/Sky/Man attributes, they don't really come up unless the situation calls for it

>>14200348

>>14200340

Oh, alright. I was confused because I think Balanced used to also be Neutral before it got changed at some point. How many Servants are True Neutral? Would that get past Quetz's guard like Herc and Bride Nero do?

>>14200348

Same, I also had to make do with my Grails since I'm part Waifu fag and part Game play purist. As much as I want to grail Okita to 100, I look back at the several others who have done so, and think "Is it really worthwhile to grail anything to 100?"

The answer to that I only had was Kojiro, but that's because due to the numbers if I had to grail him at all, anything less than 100 is a waste unfortunately.

>>14200374

Actually Yes, Herc is Chaotic Insane so he also works well against Quetz, here's a video going over that exact thing. I'm also certain Bride Nero would also work yes

>>14201830

>Why can't we get a 3% rate like other mobages? Why can't we get a double rate up for anniversaries like other mobages? Why can't we get free 10-rolls like other mobages? Fuck DW for their extremely jewish ways! Sometimes I wonder why I bother why this stupid thing…

Premium currency has better roll chances though, that's why they count free stars differently from paid stars. Join the whale side and all your dreams come true. Don't spend money or you're retarded

They would have changed the way rolling works if they weren't making money. Looks like there are enough people spending money that they don't give a shit if you have your waifu or not.

>>14201854

The reason that there isn't a 3% rate up is because when you do a 10 pull, the guaranteed 4 or higher changes the odds of getting a 5 star servant and a 4 star servant to 5% and 15% chance respectively still 80% chance to get a CE of any kind though. If we're comparing it to other games 3% up then DW already does that on any 10 roll with quartz you do but makes it a 5% instead.

also the fag you're responding to has admitted he's a whale so he's too far gone for any common sense to reach him

>>14201844

Oh, fuck off. Like if you've never made a shitty OP ever in your life.

>>14201854

Oh, I know all that, and I know nothing is gonna change. I'm just complaining for the sake of complaining.

>>14201920

If I were a whale you wouldn't be seeing me here bitching about how I didn't get Bryn. I'd be gloating about how I'd have her at NP5. Stop spouting lies. Are you a butthurt lolicon or Shutenfag or something like that that you keep antagonizing me?

I'll never play a Fate game, then. The closest I got to this series was watching the first anime series when it came out, and even then I felt like plenty of the plot and references flew over my head.

>>14202660

It's strange, having more hearts than you need but needing to farm horseshoes.

>>14202192

You can jump in with Extra, and slide over to Extella with that, all you'd be missing is context on some of the larger themes. You'd get the idea. Best is to do it all of course, but Extra was made as an entry point, and Extella is it's sequel.

I rolled Bryn and Beowulf last night. Do not envy me, for this is the only string of luck I have been fortunate enough to have ever since I began playing this shitty game.

>>14203023

That's just the case with Extra and Stay Night though. So many Fate works have almost nothing to do with each other. Apocrypha, Strange Fake, Fragments of Silver and Blue come to mind. Hell Prisma Illya uses the same characters and setting from Stay Night but everything's so different it might as well not be Fate at this point. At best you need Extra for context of Extella and it's sequel. And you start with Stay Night, read Ataraxia for context for Avenger, Read Zero because now you have the context of Stay Night and Ataraxia, and that's it for Stay Night universe. And Grand Order references literally everything but it's okay because the game is going to spoonfeed you all you need to know about the characters inside it. You just need to read the original Stay Night to have a foundation to understand the general rules for servants and magecraft and after that you can meander about with impudence.

>>14203032

>one of the worst Zerkers

>worst 5 star Lancer

I mean I guess.

>>14203044

>One of the worst 5* lancers

Nope. She's great for ST attacks and even healing too. She also has decent NP gain with AQQ, but her NP Interlude is very far though. It still hits decent at least. And if you get her, congrats on being in the cool kids club, because she doesn't reappear until 2 years from now! Unless NA decides to sneak her in.

>>14203044

>worst 5 star lancer

She is very rare and is thus the best. Get owned.

You guys hyped for the Fate/Extra anime coming up? I'm kind of burnt out after Apoc but I think I'll give this one a watch too.

>>14203203

Give me this

>>14183637

simply ebin

>>14203203

>Eresh

2 Years wait for her, and her skill boosts max HP, I don't see any health restoration. Her NP is AoE with a self buster boost effect (OC) and and ATK boost only affected if you use 3rd skill beforehand.

>Scathach

One of the better lancers, the quick cards will lose their flair when the gauge system shits the fan. But the dodge is nice, and the 3rd skill covers divines. That's hard counter for divines, but not much else. Stat-wise both of them are equal (literally)

>Tama beach

I will admit shes' better with her kit, too bad about that 1-turn after stun; you'll have to either keep the stun or add a unit or MC to cure it.

>Arturia Lancer

The only good thing is Blessings (3rd skill), she suffers from the typical Arturia kit only for AoE bursting. Alter Lancer is better because of similar reasons that Alter Saber is.

>Karna

Good support with a stronger MB-Flame, but AoE. But he's available now so if you get either it depends on how you want to gear the party.

>>14203474

I dont' play the JP version?

>>14203496

I haven't used every servant yet, so oh well to that. I have used Jekyll a few times in story but I couldn't fire the NP off as his charge was too damn slow. So I didn't even bother using him afterwards since I had Jack as my assassin. I'll have to experiment more when I leave the leveling hell (There's only 10 servants I don't have.)

> but get to blab your mouth trying to justify why Bryn is not the worst 5* Lancer when she objectively is.

Because how she's stuck mid-way between offense and support? She has slightly higher overall attack thanks to divinity (even with E), and can pull off nice buster chains on occasions with her deck. While she doesn't have the Def-down effect with her NP, a good deal of servants already have that effect.

But one thing I will admit, when gauge does hit (since everyone talks about it as it's coming), even though quick will lose it's flair, buster will too.

>>14203636

Calm the fuck down, dude. First of all, Bryn is very dynamic and sees use all over the place - as long as you have her or someone on your friends list does. Most people will go with Bryn when asked to pick between either Bryn or Scath

Second of all, this is just a mobage - a crappy one at that. In terms of depth, Granblue Fantasy is much deeper, and if you want to flex your superiority, it would carry a lot more weight if you did it in /gbfg/

t. competitive rank 138 JP player

>>14203044

>worst 5* lancer

She is better than Enkidu and Artoria and around par with Ereshkigal and Scathach

Are any of the future Lancers worth going out of my way to summon for if I already have both versions of Cu maxed out? Fuji-ne and Houzouin can be gotten from FP and I might get summer Tamamo and Kiyo while trying to pull for Mor-chan, but on a glance none of them really interest me.

>>14203636

He didn't mention not whaling. Then again, here we are arguing about a servant ranking despite the fact that this is a waifu simulator.

>>14203713

She is. She has better damage than Ereshkigal. Scathach beats both in damage in her niche and has stun on NP but has much lower NP gain than either. They are all about on par with each other but serve different uses.

>>14203800

She only beats Ereshkigal in damage in single target NP use, which of course as you stated, Scathach flat out is better at. Her heal is the exact same amount as Ereshkigals Maximum Health Increase but targets only one servant and doesn't come with the benefits of said Maximum health increase, and while it provides a mediocre star weight increase, it doesn't give NP gain or Defense which are far more useful. When comparing her Mana Burst (Flame) to Ereshkigals Mana Burst (Cage). It gives a 43.75% damage boost to her NP only, and a 25% damage boost to her other Buster cards. Compared to Ereshkigals 50% damage boost to all her Busters attacks including NP, this of course isn't mentioning the NP charge effect which Bryn doesn't even have. As per the last skills I haven't mentioned for both, her NP strength down is okay and incredibly situational, as well as her critical rate reduction being even more so. Meanwhile Ereshkigals invincibility buff is simply better unless you're trying to reduce the enemy's NP damage to 0 with defense buffs and attack downs. Erashkigal is better than her in almost every single way because your support Lancer shouldn't be your main damage dealer in the first place, and even then Ereshkigals buffs give her higher consistent damage outside of NP use.

>>14203922

Ereshkigal is a semi support, it's better to run full support characters, ones dedicated to the role like Waver or Merlin or even fucking Hans most of the time. She is good for farming and fine for easy shit but her extremely low attack does her no favors. An AOE NP and no way to gather stars means she is poor in an offensive role. She is easily the 3rd worst lancer, above Artoria and Enkidu.

>>14206050

And if Ereshkigal is a semi-support then Bryn is an objectively inferior semi-support in all categories, as I've proved to you with actually skill by skill comparison. It should be noted that assuming Bryn isn't attacking anyone with a beloved trait Ereshkigal while only hitting half as hard, is hitting way more often then Bryn can as far as NP spam. If Bryn isn't supposed to be a support 1 of her skills is garbage, 1 is useful, and the other is schizophrenic on if she wants to be a support or not.

>>14206200

Bryn is the same role as Scathach, NP nuker against specific targets. She trades a bit of damage and stun for better NP gain and better synergy with the buster meta with her NPBB chain.

>If Bryn isn't supposed to be a support 1 of her skills is garbage

Her second skill IS mostly garbage. Even if she was a support NP damage down is trash and crit down is not much better. Her first skill is decent and suits her role well. Her 3rd skill is ok and allows her to either vacuum up stars herself or to feed them to another character instead if you are running a two attacker composition, the heal is just kind of there. A single target buster NP with a common damage bonus and interlewd, decent np gain, the ability to do a NPBB chain, and a damage steroid is why she is good. She sucks ass as a support of any sort.

>>14206339

>a common damage bonus

Well at least I know you're joking now.

>>14206514

Its common enough to be relevant.

>>14206611

Different days have different rate ups for chocolate coin drops which means you're going to want to cycle classes, which means you're going to want different CEs from different servants. This leads to a certain problem for instance, as there are no females 3* and lower for Saber or Lancer in the game at this time. So good luck getting any CEs that help those particular coins drop if you don't happen to have a 4 or 5* female in those two classes. Of course Saber is probably the most prolific class in the moment so far as 4* and higher. So it's highly probably you have one of those, and incredibly less so for Lancers as only Elizabeth and Bryn qualify. The day you are getting more drops from Riders you want to have more CEs from female Rider servants for example.

So I should stack my teams for each class with the female Servants. In that case I can get good drops for all classes except Lancer, Assassin, and Ruler. I actually don't have any female Lancers Looks like I'm relying on Melty Sweetheart for that one or the 3 star CE for that.

>>14206766

The only class I don't have female Servants for is Lancer. (And Ruler, but Jannu's the only Ruler/a 5 star so) I have Jing Ke and Mata Hari, the Assassin drops will just be shit compared to the rest because afaik the other female Assassins are 4 star or higher. The only 4 stars I've summoned are Herc and Marie.

Setsubun event is fun.

Being forced to use all your servants is nice (a few np I was seing them for the first time I think) also mats at almost no cost.

The only bad thing is that I failed to get Shuten.

>>14203562

>But one thing I will admit, when gauge does hit (since everyone talks about it as it's coming), even though quick will lose it's flair, buster will too.

You're the only one to mention it in this thread at all unless you're referring to your fellow redittors. And are you talking about overgauge which is just making overkill a relevant boss mechanic? Quick teams don't mind as yeah you waste damage but unlike Buster you get plenty of stars and NP charge. Not surprised that the person that doesn't understand maximum health increase is prattling on about something else he doesn't understand as well.

>>14216592

I thought it was on the 26th. It really starts tonight?

>>14216615

2018-01-25 07:00 - 02-03 23:59 UTC

So only 8 more hours to go

>>14214999

Setsubun looks like fun provided you have plenty of servants to clear floors reliably. A banner for Mama, Shuten, Kintoki, Ibaraki and 2moe is pretty damn good, too. I'll look forward to it in NA 2 years from now.

I get the feeling that DW will spook the japs with Muramasa Shirou on the next banner

>>14216592

I have 415 quartz and 13 tix ready for bride umu. I pray to the glorious ticket meme power that'll be enough to bring her home.

>>14216733

Where the fuck do you even get that much?

>>14216763

I saved up since I got Shishou and only rolled singles a few times for Lancer Alter. I had about 180 quartz leftover, though.

>>14216763

By not spending it. You should be getting 4 a week from weekly bonus, another 2 a week from quests, and assuming he has been playing since the very first day of June 25th for NA. 214 days have past, meaning he should have gotten roughly 90 total quartz assuming a sold streak, and an additional 183 from consistent weekly login bonus and weekly quests. Then, there is the single quartz given for completing every main quest, free quest, and most interludes in the game. In addition, there's the constant quartz given for events and maintenance and as event bonuses. Assuming the complete absence of story and events and maintenance he would still have roughly 270 quartz from playing. This isn't even going into summon tickets as well.

>>14216763

See? Even the mommy faggot finds it hard to fuck up such a simple concept as not using quartz. >>14216822

>>14216822

what do you mean find it hard? i have a ton of saint quartz

>>14216858

I guess i've been missing some days, must have cut into my free quartz.

>>14216871

oh i get it now. oops

>>14216802

>>14216592

I've gotta go for the Chocolate Burger.

Burger-flavored chocolate?

Chocolate-flavored Burger?

And that's despite my preferred Servant actually being Lancer Alter. She'll be next, with her white chocolate spiral of destruction.

>>14216592

I gotta go for Drake's Mug Bonbon. I'm not a fan of them but not only was she my first 5 star but the Description for it where she goes "You're my favorite person so here's my favorite Chocolate with my favorite thing" tears me up a little.

I just realized I have quite a few female servants. Not including 3 stars and below (which I have all of)

>jeanne

>drake

>elizabeth (lancer assassin and caster)

>martha

>salter

>shishou

>atalante

>lily

>nobu

>tamano cat

>santa alter

>anne and mary

The rolls have been faithful.

aren't the servant craft essence chocolates useless? there is really no reason to get them over the mash craft essence

>>14219209

I dont like this event. people didnt like saber wars cause of the grind but at least it was straight forward. this event is overly complicated

>roll for umu

>get Jeanne and Martha instead

I think this game is trying to tell me i need Jesus in my life.

>>14221456

If there is it won't start until the second day as far class specific rate ups, the first day won't have any of that as was the same in the JP version.

>>14222119

You can convert any choco coin into choco pieces at a 1-1 rate.

>>14222281

We get that already. He's asking if there's CEs that increase the drop quantity of baking chocolate from the quests, and the answer is no.

>>14222253

We get it, JP nigger, quit posting screenshots of shit we'll not get for another 2 years cause of the shitty and untalented hack developers.

>>14222369

>no way to boost pure piece drops

Unfortunate. Ah well, I'm only going for the rest of the Servant CEs, Melty Sweethearts, golem crystals, exp cards and Mana Prisms. Anything else is just extras to me.

Also, found the rate-up schedule:

00:00~11:59 UTC Rider Lancer Rider Rider Caster Saber Assassin Lancer

12:00~23:59 UTC Assassin Archer Saber Saber Berserker Archer Caster Saber

>>14221240

>>14219192

Actually, they may be BETTER than the Melty Sweetheart Craft Essence.

Right now, there is a Rider Choco Rate Up for a few hours. This also changes the tendency of enemies to Rider for the regular missions with Rider in them. If you grind for the Rider Craft Essences, you can increase your Rider bonus Chocos up to 10, since each give you plus 2.

I got all my Rider Essences already, and am getting 38 regular Chocos and 156 Rider Chocos per run, which makes 194 choco per run.

This means even though Melty gives 2 coin for every choco coin bonus, it costs too much to get each one.

Course, this only works if you have enough female servants per class to grind fast.

>>14222642

I was also going to say to put your Friend Formation with Choco Essences that are WEAK to the Servant you equip it to.

>>14222649

The 5 star CE that you can get from the summoning campaign gives a 5 drop bonus for the class of the servant holding it. It's better to run your own servant that is strong against the enemy to be farmed today and get a support that has that CE that increases drops by 5 for their own class (i.e right now a Francis Drake

And again, Melty is an incredibly good CE for later bosses in the game as it's an effective 3 hit invincibility against male bosses.

Aren't the chocolate CEs you get from your Servants supposed to come MLB? It's weird seeing one at lv 20 but with no stat boosts.

>>14222666

>NP2 Atalante

Atlante in general has the serious problem of being a quick Archer. Thus, she is stuck with one of the worst cards in the game. If you already have someone to fill her roll I would at least do her interludes and burn her afterwards

>Elizabeth

She has some meme combination with Jeanne Alter due to her Dragon trait and after her first skill gets better she also helps Jeanne Alter hit harder. She's by no means the best but she's at least kind of good at her job. I'm assuming you have Tituria who is miles better then her at her exact same job so again, she's probably meh. Feel free to burn extra copies or all of her.

>>14222692

There are no stat boosts and no effect outside of the event. They're basically the Exp CE from Saber Wars or Nobunobu event. After the event is over and if you're a heartless monster you can use them to level up other CEs faster.

>>14222649

>>14222642

This right here, I run the front row with counter classes with the 4 star chocolate CEs, and the backrow is filled with three of the 5 star CE I got lucky enough to roll and all the same class as the one I'm farming, easily able to drag +20 per drop of coins.

The other option of course is if you don't get lucky with the banner is just stuff whoever back there and stack melty CEs. Either way I dunno how anyone could be having issues for this event; I'm missing 2 Assassin CEs but otherwise I'm done and just now farming the store.

>>14224169

Martha had the longest fucking cutscene far and it was great

>>14224800

fuck you for those gears, I must've blown like 30 apples on trying to get gears and gotten 0

>>14222693

>Atlante in general has the serious problem of being a quick Archer. Thus, she is stuck with one of the worst cards in the game.

While true that Quick cards normally suck, Quick NPs have higher damage than the other two card types even after accounting for the card type modifier. NP2 Atalanta with her interlude gets a 1000% multiplier, effectively 800% damage, that further gets boosted by Crossing Arcadia. To compare, Nobu at NP5 has a 500% multiplier, effectively 750%, without any additional damage boosts unless the enemy has the Riding trait (normal mobs won't) or has the Divine trait (only sphinxes which are normally Casters). Atalanta still has shit NP gain though.

There's nothing wrong with having options and the game's only going to add more gimmicks over time so naturally you want anyone you have given even a little investment in to be at the best you could possibly get them. And what the hell are you even going to use a rare prism for anyway that would make burning them worth it.

>>14225167

>Her troops

How does that work? Only she got summoned

>>14225167

>Mata Hari says in passing that enough love baked into chocolate turns it into a jewel

>Carmilla's chocolate is so jewel-like the MC mistakes it for an Octuplet Crystal

Are we gonna get all 19 Hassans?

>>14225726

>It's really more of a blank container for authors to play around with as their own plots need.

Anon, that's everything in Fate.

>>14225728

No, you misunderstand. Most of the time you have an established legend that everyone tweaks to their needs personality and looks wise, but at the very least their powers are 90% of the time based on their actual legends. We say, give Nero thrice rising sun because this legitimately a part of the legend of Nero, and we then translate it into an ability. And we make her theater that she was also famous for an offensive thing.

But nothing is known of the Hassan-I-Sabbah and they are complete blank slates that you can create any NP you want as long as it sounds cool.

>This Hassan is Killer Queen

>This Hassan has Schizophrenia

>This Hassan is a tragic girl who just wants cuddles but kills everyone she sleeps with

etc

There is not even a tweaking taking place Serenity is a great example of this as the trope of "poisonous girl who kills everyone she sleeps with" which was established by The Vish Kanya as the only example of this in legend, is a very popular anime trope nowadays. But we didn't even bother making her a Vish Kanya, we just said Hassan can do this because Hassan.

>>14225737

It's perfectly fine, because most of the time it's done well. Most

>>14225737

No, that's one of the reasons why anybody likes Fate. None of it matters, it's just an excuse to watch cute girls in skimpy outfits use cool magic powers on each other while buff dudes also do cool shit.

That's it, that's all of Fate in one sentence.

Got around to playing fate grand order and liking it more than granblue, but I'm not sure how similar it is to granblue. Like is there a end of the month type of extra chance draws and sparking for individual characters? Also any other things I'm suppose to know of before I start fucking up my shit.

>>14225857

But gae bolg's hitkill is a curse anon, didn't you know Luck counters curses? :^)

>>14225857

>>5 seconds later he fails to gank Archer with it because of his "Luck" or some bullshit

Nah, that's wrong.

>>14225865

F/GO is much nastier than GBF when it comes to free stuff. There is no legfest equivalent or any other special breaks, but you do get daily login bonuses, bonuses for consecutive logins and bonuses for number of times logged in, so do that. The game is easy enough to play as long as you grind sensibly, but if you want a specific character get used to disappointment.

Use cirnopedia for English info on the current event.

>>14225857

He never activated his spear on EMIYA, he was about to but Shirou appeared.

>>14225955

>>14225880

I was afraid I'd get it mixed up with when he fought Saber later. Regardless, my point stands. There are no "rules" to Fate. There is only fanservice and the illusion of dense mechanics.

>>14198209

>Why do people do this?

Because it's canon in this case

>three uses of "normies" in the second Valentine's Day cutscene

I want to delete this app more and more.

>>14226690

A fair point, but I still want to kill myself whenever I read "normies."

>>14226699

Edward as a character is supposed to be a physically painful incarnation of a 5chan otaku shitposter IRL with no shame. If you are angry or embarrassed by his behavior they have accurately captured the character.

>>14226747

Guess I got played.

I'd say if you've got some extra cash you don't know what to do with and there's a guaranteed SSR gacha up then yeah, go ahead. I personally won't because of the fucking run-around I got on the Mordred bullshit

As long as you don't end up like the guy in >>14227956 or that one nip who took out a loan from the fucking Yakuza to try and roll Shishou, then eh, whatever.

>fate/waifu order

>free

>googleplay

I really don't want to sell my soul to google just for a waifugame.

>>14228035

use an android emulator.

>>14228044

I didn't even know that was a thing.

>>14228167

>Assuming her NP deals 20k to an enemy, that gets boosted to 30k.

That's not how that works retard, do you even know the formula? Here, in case you're retarded. http://blogs.nrvnqsr.com/entry.php/3309-How-is-damage-calculated

Again, in isolation of a team, a max leveled(without grail), max Fou Atalanta has an attack of 10633 , with NP 2 she has a damage multiplier of 10000%, but because it's a quick card, the formula uses card attack value of 80%(effectively a 800% multiplier). She then uses her 50% quick buff. Her class modifier is of course 95% and she's hitting a target for neutral class advantage. Her NP hits for 121216.20 damage on average. This is again, without any team boosts.

Nobunaga with max level and max fou has an attack of 11494, her NP5 damage multiplier is 500%, but because it's a buster NP the card damage value is 150%, increasing it by 50% (effectively a 750% multiplier). No other boosts apply as she's not hitting divine or rider trait, her damage modifier is of course 95% and she's hitting for neutral class advantage. Her NP on average hits 81894.75.

In the context I stated, with no team members, the difference between the best Nobu can do by herself and what Atalanta can do by herself is 4k in Atalanta's favor, any additional support is heavily tilted in Nobu's favor, as Buster enhancements are far more common then Quick one's.

>Also by your logic, it's not worth bothering with any servant except Merlin, Waver, and Jeanne Alter.

That's not what I'm saying at all you faggot. If you want an AoE archer you only need one, if you want an ST Archer you only need one, if god forbid you want a support archer you only need one. It's perfectly fine to let your 4 and 5 stars rot in archive because you're simply not using them, but each servant has a job they are good at and some are way better at doing it then they are. Don't guilt yourself to death over burning a servant for rare prisms if you want/need rare prisms.

>>implying people still aren't clearing the latest content with 2 year old bronzes

They certainly are, with the exact same set of bronze servants they were using a year before that with no change, even with the new "gimmicks" because those never go down to the bronze level.

>>14228167

>new gimmicks are enabling old servants all the time

<the same broken bronze team is still being used to this day

Nice way to contradict yourself faggot.

>>14228254

Don't you mean 40k? Think you missed a 0 there.

>>14228309

Son of a bitch you're right, fuck.

>>14228254

You're right, sorry. I misread your 4k as Atalanta's final damage getting boosted by only 4k and then further forgot at what point the buffs are taken in the formula. I'll go kill myself now.

I'll disagree however about "only need one" but that's a matter of play style in the end.

>>14228274

New gimmicks like break gauges, Nerofes buffs, or Setsubun mechanics. And '2 year old bronzes' still being used despite these show how fucking little power creep matters. The fuck are you even trying to say. New servants do have new gimmicks but I was never referring to them in my posts but to battle gimmicks.

>>14228379

The fuck do you keep doing?

>>14228416

This. It warms the cockles of my heart.

Why did Kiritsugu have to die?

>>14228638

Because he would unfairly tilt any Grail War scenario in Shirou's favor

>>14231715

No I noticed that too, I wasn't sure if it was my luck but yeah, despite me having the same setups and walking away with +21 per coin drop, I'm still getting on average about 100 less

>>14231715

The dragon in the second wave takes up valuable drop rates (7 total enemies instead of 9).

>>14231733

makes a lot of sense.

Good thing I didn't start farming for real since in 16 minutes it's Rider Up again

>>14231469

But he did die.

He dies all the time.

>>14233749

>that roll

Prepare to get bullied, nerd.

>putting "Increase Choco Coin drops for the equipped Servant's class" CEs on Jeanne

Are these people blind, or is there some reason for this?

>>14237171

Ruler gives "all" choco coins

>>14237204

That explains it, thanks.

>>14238055

Are the rate ups random? I haven't had the Caster Rate up yet.

>>14237171

Because of you give it her it increase "choco coin of All" +2. Which is still stupid as it's the rarest drop with no rate up. She should be running the 5* because that increases "all choco coin drops by 2" but people are stupid.

how are you supposed to get everything? you have to farm this event 24/7 its too much and not enough time

>>14241800

If you're aiming to clean out literally everything it might be a bit daunting but most people don't give a shit about pieces, monuments, fous, or exp cards. It's perfectly reasonable for any event to take all of your time for the days it's running, as it's most likely the best grind for any mats or even raw drops from fights. Anything other then those is just something you can spend any extra you make after you've gotten everything you want.

>>14242080

but pieces and monuments are precious. if you get them in events you dont have to waste time farming for them

>>14242597

I've got over 110 golden apples without spending a cent on this game- if I really wanted to clean out the shop, it's possible. The question is, would it be worth it? Most people will say no and pick whatever they need most, then farm and wait for the next event.

>>14243089

is it worth it to go after the 1k mana prisms or not?

>>14242597

If you've been doing your dailies every day like you should be, you're probably in a position where you don't really need to farm for pieces/monuments

>>14243140

If you care about Mona Lisa (Which you should) Then yes, Mana prisms should be a priority after CEs, Crystal Lore and Mats.
