    So what, are we supposed to believe that Gilgamesh just walked/ran/jumped away from that?

    Masters who are the summoning masters, imbue their own prana/vitality into the Servants through their path.
    Although Heroic Spirits are beings that have powerful prana, the amount of prana which is imbued from a human’s Master Degree after all is miniscule if I speak about percentages, and Heroic Spirits can’t operate without a bit of this prana.
    Thanks phenoix for this.
    Either way doesn't this mean all Servants are kinda like Saber?
    They use the prana they get from their master to burn a giant pool they have.
    How else would you make sense of this?

    Well we do have Rin!Saber but then again she and shirou never really had a proper contract to begin with so....there was also Gil who changed Masters and did get a decrease in stats but that seemed to be just because Kirei was a crappy magus.

    召喚主であるマスター(fuck the rubies)は、パスを通じて自らの生命力/魔力を英霊へと注ぎ込む。強力な魔力を秘めた存在である英霊 たちにとって、所詮は人間の魔術程度から注がれる魔力量は比率で言えば微量ではあるものの、この僅かな魔力 なくして英霊は正しく稼働しない。
    魔術師からの魔力供給がなければ、英霊は消え去るのみということか。


    Sounds like the exact same thing as the game.

    Yeah, it's why Shirō's such a bad Master for Saber. Hasn't gone through the proper qualifications. Rin's genius let her get her MA early, and Ilya picked up her degree from a certain obscure German university.

    Translation is a little funky. That line in other words would be something like:
    The summoner, a magus (Master), supplies her own life force/magical energy to the heroic spirit via a magical energy channel(Pass).

    It's true, I read it

    A: They have to be magi possessing magic circuits, be of sufficient stature to summon a Heroic Spirit, have a postgraduate education, and be heretics of a sort. Of course, the Three Houses take priority.

    The game says that for servants who aren't Saber, the amount of magical energy you give to the Servant is minuscule in comparison to their total, but still lets them work?

    Master is the physical anchor, without which most fade pretty quickly unless they have certain skills.

    What if they went to a trade school? Can any sufficiently skilled laborer qualify as a master? What if they dropped out? We need this answered in the next Q&A.

    You mean I was the only one who got that impression with scenes like what happened with Hassan and Caster and I've been deluding myself the whole time?

    Oh wow.
