Board 8 > Fate/Grand Order Topic 2: All Must Kneel to the King of Heroes!

(+) Yeah! (+)

She only needs Pieces and Monuments, which are relatively farmable at this point. Still took a fair amount of effort, but it's not ridiculous or impossible like some current Servants are.
---

She is because she uses pieces and monuments only instead of needing the other materials
---

Yeah, somebody here already has a lv90 Jeanne I think. I've been trying to get more dragon fangs for Artoria, but no luck so far

So.....what's the deal with Gil? Easily my weakest 5*.

That is me, yes.

Different growth curve. Most of his stats are in his first 10 and last 10 levels. Everything in-between is only minor gains.
---

Bluh. Explains why he seemed so good at first. Gotta get a better handle on where to get the specific ascension materials.
---

doesn't he get buffs later too. or his NP gets stronger or something maybe through interludes? not sure on the details

Yes. A later interlude increases his base NP multiplier from 300% to 400%, and later he gets a skill upgrade for his third skill that adds 20-30% NP gauge to the increased star absorption.
---

Did I gain anything doing by doing Artoria's and Emiya's first Ascension story things

Probably a Saint Quartz from each of them. Plus you have to do the first Interlude to do the second, I think (which is usually where the powerups are?).
---

Woah, wait, why am I suddenly seeing Saber Alters? Was she a pull from the start?
---

She's unlocked after doing Fuyuki.
---

Got my Jeanne up to level 80 now. If I am really lucky on sunday maybe I can do her final ascension.

Yes. NP upgrades usually are second interlude, after second ascension. Skill upgrades require all interludes and full ascension.

I feel like I'm going about grinding for Dragon Fangs wrong. Should probably look up the best stages for them. I think I have enough Saber monuments now at least. Also gotta find some eyes for Medusa and some Chaos Fang or something for Cu

BTW, if people are curious, here are the upcoming events and their rewards: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1V2iDoN2HjafZ8Ube6Jgi0woIibY-Di3YxLMZdJ6quTA/htmlview?usp=sharing&sle=true

Next one should probably be enough to max out at least one Servant? No Monuments or Pieces though, so you'll want to farm those now if you can.

Got Dragon Fangs reliably from yesterday's event easiest difficulty.

For things like Halloween Elizabeth, is that another unit or a costume?
---

if I'm not mistaken they JUST started doing alternate costumes in JP (swimsuit Mash) so anything before that is a different unit

edit: http://fategrandorder.wikia.com/wiki/Elizabeth_Bathory_(Halloween)
---

There's a good number of alternate versions of characters in the game. And yeah, some events give out Servants you don't have to roll for, which is cool. Some of them are actually pretty good! I saw someone posted a video or something beating the most recent event challenges using only guaranteed Servants from events + Mash to show how you don't need to roll for the best.
---

I do feel a little peeved that I just got Elizabeth to her 3rd form and now there's gonna be a new one....
---

dude, there are going to be new forms of a ton of servants. Archer, Arturia, Jeanne, Gilgamesh, and a bunch of others all get different versions later on. Hell, Arturia gets like 4 or 5...

Also pretty sure Lancer Liz is better than Halloween Liz, though I could be mistaken.
---

Ascended Carmilla who I haven't even used still. Cu Prototype is at NP4 now thanks to these tickets. Doesn't seem to want me to have Medea for whatever reason or any of the 4*s after everything I've put into this banner

I have almost all the 3* units now. Missing both Cu and Bluebeard.

10 if you include Arthur (Artoria has it's own trait)
---

I just realized Prototype is referring to that OVA.

Looking through the full servant list.

I am not surprised that Jack the Ripper is the first 5* Assassin.

I am surprised he's a naked little girl.

Do I have that garbage heap Prisms Illya to blame for this embarrassment? I just assume that all the creepy loli designs come from there. I am not confident I can even link without being moderated.
---

A large amount of the new servants are from Apocrypha, Jack included.

Guest art from the Danganronpa artist? Neat.

Holy shit.

Oh, so I shouldn't be upset that I'm missing out on that show then.
---

If you're going to bash it you might as well skip Grand Order too since it uses those servants...
---

Man that design is embarrassing. It's literally just something from a loli hentai.
---

Loli Jack the Ripper predates Prisma Illya slightly. She was in the original design of Fate/Apocrypha and was in the first pilot chapter before the LN series started. Basically, Type-Moon is gonna Type-Moon

If it makes you feel any better, there's a Berserker version of Jack in Fate/Strange Fake that's effectively a disembodied spirit
---

Okita Souji looks cool. If she's before Shiki comes which is estimated Q1, so guess that might be layered this year?

Literally anything would be better.

I've made no attempt to hide my disgust for Prisms Illya and that hasn't changed. I will avoid pulling even once during the event I'm sure must be a thing.
---

There is a statue of Jack meant to show off her ass.

Japan is a mistake.
---

jack is best assassin.
---

I personally abhor Prisms Illya in all forms for absolutely butchering Type moon lore and characters worse than being hung drawn and quartered.

At least Jack has some sense of reasonability, considering she's the daughter of a whore and when you were a peasant child in Victorian Britain it wasn't really uncommon for you to whore yourself out.

That being said, the design most certainly could have been tasteful and the garb she wore actually in style for the era.

What exactly is the issue with Prism Ilya, anyway? I was kinda hyped to watch it because Ilya but I think I've only heard negativity.

I'm hoping it doesn't have sexy lolis but I'm assuming it has sexy lolis :\

Prisma Illya is an entirely different universe with entirely and absurdly different characters wearing the skins of ones you know. It's abhorrent, doesn't follow the rules of the nasuverse and is filled with dumb fanservice of all kinds.

As for the latter, watch this and you'll have gotten everything you need to know.

well at least that narrows down my list a bit

What's the deal with the dude at the bottom.right? I know his name which I assume is a big spoiler, which is why I'm asking.

He's an Alter version of a character from an alternate universe of the Fate/Extra CCC timeline who appears in an event that might just be a dream that happens in FGO in a little under two years.

sexy lolis are definitely one of the big things to it and if that's gonna throw you off then yeah, avoid.
if it doesn't then it's pretty great. don't know what alana means with "doesn't follow the rules of the nasuverse," it absolutely does, to a surprising extent for a project not run by the guy. the animation of the first season wasn't that good but the fight scenes were great. from there both have improved ever since. fanservice of all kind, from the lolis kissing to the story contents (e.g., the characters), have grown a ton every season.
---

Prisma Ilya's a pretty fun show! Has some nice slice of life and cool fights. Decent amount of fanservice too, but it doesn't go crazy with it or anything. Don't forget, LtM hasn't actually watched the show, and he's the guy who quit anime for years because he hated Madoka so much (despite not watching it).
---

I have read tons of the source manga and several episodes of the show, shut up with yer BS.

It's odd you use that Madoka thing when I talk about it often and specifically use it as a turning point example of when I stopped judging anime that way. Quite disengenuous. Shame on you.
