Fate/Grand Order General Discussion (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

[Nikiri]

at least Aozaki got it

- - - Updated - - -

my mergeee

The remaining members of the Sakura 5. And BB teased a different setting for when humanity has dropped below 3%.

ok, didn't know about the latter part

did other members of Sakura 5 appear at all in any works yet, since I never saw any art of them (not like I was looking for them)

[castor212]

Didnt we already see all 5 in fox tail

[Aozaki-desu]

Best i can do with team SemiSenpai is 73k wave 2 and 71k+106k=177k wave 3
i have to sacrifice CE for 50% Semi np CE
and arash gets no buffs wave 1 so his damage would be minimal

its better than my sushi lineup? i think. except i'm not sure if yu will produce 8 stars with her np

[castor212]

Whats the exact line up and Ce if i may ask

[Aozaki-desu]

Senpai 100/np2/lbkaleido
Arash lbSakura
Merlin
Semiramis 90/np1/any 50% gauge ce (ideally event CE but if not - final destination to ensure s3 on turn 3 OR under condition that Senpai produces enough stars reliably some combat ce to boost damage)
Waver

t1 Senpai s1 -> Arash (20k)
t2 HeroCr on Senpai, Plugsuit atk buff, Senpai s2 -> NP (73k+)
t3 fullbuff and Semi->Senpai NP chain - (177k+, more if Semi has good combat CE)

[castor212]

And thats neutral damage?

If yes, damn

[Aozaki-desu]

if Semi has leyline then you can fit 2 ssr ce on waver or merlin provided 113 cost
fuck this inefficient as fuck
but i'm still gonna do it
also Earth attribute so there is also hoping for no Sky servant / w2 creature

- - - Updated - - -

And thats neutral damage?

If yes, damn

fuck no thats against Riders

[castor212]

lol ok then

[Aozaki-desu]

if Yu had NP interlude damage would be in solid clear territory and only issues would be cost / stargen / low w1 damage
but at the moment it needs testing

- - - Updated - - -

there is also the fact that aside from massive NP Ushi i dont think a decent macro antirider team can be built so its kinda take it or leave it situation
maybe some crazy Arts shit if Kiara gets good NP upgrade?

[castor212]

Whats your standard for clear damage level

Hands?

- - - Updated - - -

Nvm no way its hands

[Aozaki-desu]

i consider 35k w1, 90k w2, 180k w3 somewhat of an ideal to reach for
that being said this is hardly reachable with most teams
On alt my NP3 Gil team does 80k w2 / 140k w3 damage and i consider it very good (Neutral as its my primary farming team)
On main my Da Vinci team is 114w2/163w3 which is also very solid especially since Da Vinci is a Star so there is no chance of attribute disadvantage
but that also means that i really really want backup assassin team and i currently only have that Ushi team which is also kinda iffy

- - - Updated - - -

Another perfect benchmark would be NP5 lvl100 Gil with Kaleido100 and his damage in Arash Waver Merlin Shakes team with Plugsuit since it would be ultimate Neutral Damage team for event nodes
i should calculate it and use it as my ideal measure
44k/102k/184k yeah sounds about right

[castor212]

Maybe dumb question but is that 180k neutral for each enemies or all 3 damage combined

- - - Updated - - -

I assume each but then its a fantastic number to reach

- - - Updated - - -

And a lot of button

I should find out ways to macro with sidesync or smtg

[Aozaki-desu]

its per each enemy ofcourse
that presumes enemy is a Servant (for Gil supermode) but event nodes always have a servant on last wave
and this is neutral damage for Gil team
Its cheap too with Shakes as 5th team member
and since Arash and Gil are both Archers, this team only struggles with Lancers but you just swap to Saber team in that case
any other team they can take easily

you can reach that damage with class advantage for other servants but Gil overall is unmatched for macroing

- - - Updated - - -

this damage is also at .9 random roll
all my damage is calculated like that

[GDB]

While it's likely Passionlip, I'm kind of hoping that they give a SQ to both Mecha-Elis that differentiates them in some small, tiny way.

While it's likely Passionlip, I'm kind of hoping that they give a SQ to both Mecha-Elis that differentiates them in some small, tiny way.

I wish freebies actually got SQs as well. Only ones that got upgrades were Saber Lily and Kuro. Kuro was from an Interlude and is a collab freebie whilst Saber Lily is unique in that she really isn't like every other freebie since she requires mats for ascending so I'd consider her as a giveaway Servant.

... Maybe the freebies will actually finally get some love. Who knows.

[GDB]

And even then, Kuro's upgrade didn't help her in any way. It was really an Illya buff (both Illyas now, I guess) attached to another character.

[manafusion]

Also, just checking out the list of freebies and realised that we only had one freebie Lancer so far. But a truck-load of Riders and Casters.

Yeah, more like a net neutral in general with small benefit if there's an Illya in the frontline as well.

[GDB]

That said, I don't expect to get much from this SQ set as it'll likely be mostly CCC units (plus Semi and hopefully Beowulf). Unless they randomly buff Melt, or give Passionlip an amazing buff that makes her more usable than Majin Saber, these will likely end up on the back burner for me since I don't really use any of the non-BB/non-Melt CCC characters that could get buffed here that much.

[Oz1337]

Nobody is considering Meltrylis as the 5* option for much needed NP upgrade, specially since Passionlip is there too...
