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

(+) Yeah! (+)

must be nice

I got like 4 rider monuments, never even saw Waver to try and get a monument!

admittedly i didn't grind that hard though. didnt have a ton of time today. oh well, not even possible to ascend my Waver right now so not in a terrible rush
---

Ascended Emiya again. Now I need items I've never heard of to Ascend him again

The first servant I ascended twice turned out to be proto Cu.
Next I want to ascend Jing Ke. Time to grind.
---

Oh my god I finally got Medea.

now this is how you whale take notes
---

Ascended Jing Ke for the second time. Time to grind again.
---

Something real satisfying about mass leveling and ascending all my 1* and 2* servants. I have like 20 interludes ready to go.
---

Beated all the story available right now. Also beat all the optional stages aside from some Interludes and stuff, but some of them say Rec lv70 or higher so I dunno if I could do them yet. I guess now I am free to grind exp and material stages with all my AP

aww yeah, did Archer's second Interlude. Actually died for the first time in forever! Was cool having an epic fight against a single enemy rather than the waves I'm used to. Was also odd having Jeanne actually die, but she's as vulnerable as anyone to Berserkers, I guess. Cu saved me in the end, the invincible bastard. It was a level 70 quest, so I was expecting it to be hard, and was glad it was. I did the Martha level 70 quest too, which was much easier. Maybe because I have Carmilla? Don't think I had a single Servant die there.
---

I think I have most of, if not all of the 5* CEs now. And I'm not even using any of them
---

got the materials for gilgamesh's 3rd ascension!!!

oh wait serpent jewels for the 2nd ascension NEVER DROP
---

Make sure to redeem your free 4* Servant. That offer ends very soon. Half AP events will be ending soon too :(

Half AP ending will be suffering on one hand but on the other I won't feel obligated to spend so much damn time on the game. Might be nice for a while to just do a burst and then chill for the rest of the day after the past two weeks. >_>
---

pretty sure nero fest (first real event with like special quests and stuff) will start right after this stuff ends though! or at least very soon after

I'm still at 0. Have you gotten any?
---

I have not

The last monster hunting day I got 2 hearts of a foreign god but no serpent jewels. not that I'm complaining about the hearts, but it's funny I'm closer to finishing his 3rd and 4th ascensions before his 2nd. hopefully they're easy to get from these upcoming events
---

I think for a bunch of them you to event quests to do event money which you spend in the event shop to buy the event items, so you're basically guaranteed to get what you want.
---

Five GOLDEN FRUITS

THANK YOU AUO

Ultimately went with Saint Martha. Being the only 3x Arts Rider helped the decision, as did drawing Hercules and 2x Atalantas (who seems good for heavy quick teams which I plan on using) to make getting a second Emiya less appealing

No Lancelots OR Medeas from the banner though despite putting like 50 draws into it. Very annoying.
---

Classic Cu get.

Just the elusive Bluebeard for the full 1-3* collection...
---

I'm not sure if I have all the 1-2* Servants.
I have quite a few and they're nearly all at 5/5 NP.

Did another 10-pull!

I don't even remember anything I got that's how weak it was
---

Overall I kinda like the gacha in this game more than you'd think because of the way the NP Rank Up systems, burn systems, and craft leveling system works, but it really needs the 10 pull to have a guaranteed 4* Servant or 5* Essence. I feel like if I don't get one of those it's generally a bust, and it's not that unlikely to happen.
---

Man you'd love the dbz dokkan battle gacha system then!!
---

Dokkan Battle needs to update their summoning system because virtually every SR aka 4* is worthless these days.

Got Boudica Ascended. Kinda wish she kept the midriff and covered the cleavage instead, but oh well. Next will be Medea and then I might be stuck waiting for certain items unless I work on 1-2*. Got like 30 gold exp Saber items waiting for Artoria once I get these damn dragon fangs.

Not "virtually", every single SR is worthless and if your team isn't UR/LRs (and even then you need the right leader and all of the new cards to beat the new bosses) then you're going to get fucked out of the events.

That's why I quit Dokkan after Brolly.
---

You can still beat current events with a less than optimal team. It certainly isn't easy, but it's possible. It might not continue that way when we hit the harder bosses Japan has like Super Saiyan 3 Broly, but we'll see. I've seen people beat the Super Saiyan 4 bosses with f2p teams aka cards everybody can get without needing super lucky pulls. Sometimes all you really need is a beast friend leader.

Ascended Medea. I like her art in her base form more. Also Ascended Saber Lily.

You can change the art for the characters in their profile btw
---

I noticed that. Pretty cool feature. Bond sure is taking an absurd time to level up for the 2nd row. I'm almost halfway through the first one after I think probably thousands and thousands of points. Possibly even 10k+

Yeah there are people who've been playing since JP launch who still don't have any characters up to bond level 10.

Except even those cards require some 1% chance pulls and a lot of pulls to get, specific items, strategies and on top of that it's not even a fair fight. You essentially have to bow to the RNGods and pray for luck.

In F/GO at least 3* and below challenges are still a thing. Hell, there's even Cu solo shit.

None of the ones I saw require any such luck for pulls because they're units you earn from events. They aren't the hard events either. By the way if anybody is interested now is a good time to start. The game is doing the 2nd year anniversary and now you can start with enough stones for 3-4 multis on top of getting a free stone that lets you pick one of 5 characters for free (Super Saiyan 3 Goku, Ultimate Gohan, Super Saiyan Broly, Perfect Cell or Full Power Frieza)

Think we can save the DBZ for the topic though and keep this about Fate. Got a dumb 3* essence dupe with my ticket today :(

How I hate

Fighting yu
---

I hate fighting any character that spams Evade. Also I think if this game didn't give you free Servants it would be harder/more annoying because they rarely ever show up for pulls. Aside from the 5* Artoria the best pull my account has had was the tutorial multi that ended up with Heracles and Emiya. Since then I've only pulled a 4* Servant 2 times and it was stupid Stheno both times.

It's really no different than Dokkan was at launch. It took me like 4 weeks to get an SSR and that was after I'd paid for a multi.
---

Note that Cu's Evade only Evades three attacks, so Brave Chains will damage him. Also, if you only hit him twice (by using a defensive NP or having a stunned character), he won't be able to renew his evades when he uses it again.

Not to keep bringing up Dokkan Battle but even when it first came out in global, when SSR rates were at their lowest, it was still about a 5% chance for SSR compared to F/GO's 1%, and Dokkan also has no items in its gacha (though to be fair it has R characters which may as well be items to level up better characters).
---

The main difference there is one gives you 10 characters per multi and another can give you as few as like 1-3. Also I regularly have characters die during the 20/40 AP Daily Quests because I typically have the same character get hit 3 times with 2 usually being a Crit like 30% of the time. Even at lv40 I've had Mash be killed on the first turn a couple times since there's no way to predict if she will be hit at all that turn let alone 3 times in a row. Don't really want to waste that 1 turn invincibility on the first turn either. In fairness though I have yet to use a single Fou item.

My team is Artoria/Mash/Support for the start and then Emiya/Cu/Herc in that order whenever anybody dies. I love having Herc last because by that point even if he's the only one alive he can finish off the enemy.

The standard non event pull for SSRs in Dokkan was 3% for the year+ I played.

Bleach has the decency to actually LIST percentages.
---

Of course I have 4 5*s and 3 of those were single pulls having spent in game Quartz only, so my view on the rate is probably screwed.
---

Yolo rolled into Altera. My FFBE luck is starting to creep over.

Level 40 Mash is kinda weak? I mean, I've been doing the quests with Servants at level 90 and 50 or 60, along with a Support that's usually around 70.
---

Mash is definitely weak. Some Fou investment might help, but it's a shame just how fragile she is and how little damage she does.

Rofl, had the mats needed to get Altera's second ascension
---

Yeah. She's good enough to fill out the back up line because of her 0 cost though, especially if you use higher cost servants and CEs.

She gets bonuses throughout the story. I think after chapter 4 she actually becomes useful?
---

Mash gets a story upgrade into a top tier 4*.
---

Can't wait for us to get that upgrade because I like Mash.

Likewise! But she's gonna get edged out of my team soon at this rate :\
