    Note that it only applies to the first time you roll a new 4* Servant. So, other extra copies don't get locked. Unless GT did me dirty.

    Done with the challenge quest, Demiya was a great choice here, though my damage output was mainly from his NP and that's it LOL, normal attacks did absolutely nothing.

    And I'm happy we are able to use normal Mashu in this event, another great choice for this challenge quest.

    Sounds like an excuse for them to "accidentally" weasel a few more rolls out of people who aren't paying attention/their muscle memory is used to the old system, TBH.

    Finished the CQ as well. Went the lazy route of Okita + double Skadi + Waver since an event CE finally dropped. Spent a CS to charge up the second NP as no Okita cards the 1st turn, though I could have waited a turn via plugsuit stun to see the next set of cards.

    I mean, who usually use that button to not roll some more? If you're done, tap the last icon and sell your garbage. If you don't have garbage, tap the second icon from the left to go and upgrade whatever new stuff you got. I don't see a reason why you'd even need to hit that button when you're not rolling some more unless you intend to roll another banner.

    No, but somebody, somewhere, is gonna lost some salt in the process, because this isn't idiot-proof.

    Well, maybe, assuming it'll give you a prompt showing how much you'll be down following the next roll, which might be enough to interfere with a sleeper's muscle memory autopilot.

    Wish the change was that all SR Servants were locked, not just the first. Doesn't help people who previously burned a SR on accident since it tracks retroactively.

    If the picture is anything to show by, yes they do prompt you.

    People already rolled gacha instead of free FP roll.

    No amount of fool-proof will prevent accidents unless you completely eliminate the chance to fuck it up.

    If you make something idiot proof, they'll just build/roll out a better idiot.

    IRUn, just gonna say this but you don't make something with the idiots in mind. You do your due diligence and label things and inform people but, like how there're people who can and will ignore warning labels on anything, there will be people who'll still do dumb shit regardless of how you try to stop them from doing so. And if you're gonna prevent idiocy at the cost of the experience for everyone else, then your priorities are wrong.

    This is why hand rails and coffee lids don't exist.

    I don't think it's idiots that use hand rails and coffee lids exclusively. Unless you're telling me that general safety precaution for the masses isn't a good thing because the masses are the idiots.

    Rather, I'm more or less saying that you don't try to go all out of your way to put railings 1cm apart from each other and multiple stacked coffee lids just to make sure that one idiot that never bothers to hold the railing when going up/down a stairs or who likes to pop open the lid of his coffee cup no matter what gets protected. At the cost of the mass majority's convenience.

    There's a difference between "don't go too far" and "don't consider idiots". Guns have a safety on them for a reason.

    Not everyone does firearm safety well either. Even with the safety there. But it's still being taught irregardless. You do your due diligence and whatever comes after is already not your fault. Like I said.

    EDIT: Sorry, didn't really know which I was talking about when I initially put "trigger discipline" instead of "gun safety".

    EDIT 2: And turns out, it's supposed to be "firearm safety".

    Done with all the quest, with demiya pulling CQ duty.

    I gotta say some of the gimmick fights kinda annoyed me in this event. They weren‘t hard, but it actually annoyed me more that i had to go with spesific things for fights that aren’t really hard.

    So, of the 14 strengthening quests we'll probably get with the anniversary, what are you all expecting? Only ones I figure are going to be guaranteed are 2 out of 4 Instincts from Saber Alter, Saber Lily, Mordred, and Santa Alter. Would be nice if Tactics got upgraded considering it's the absolute worst damage buff skill in the game.
