*Caster sends 12 skeleton soldiers*
I have a really stupid question regarding Herc that's been stuck in my mind for quite some time: how much of his body is naturally his own+GH and how much of it is ripped because of the Berserker class?
I've always assumed he would've been like the classic FSN Herc but sane and with other weapons, when alive and/or if summoned in other classes, but the strange fake manga (which I think at this point was planned and accepted by Nasu & co so it contains legit informations and designs) shows us that he was more Alkeides-like when alive and when summoned before the corruption.
Granted, he was still huge (like, he's at least double the height of Jason, and he's 181 cm) and I actually like that design, and it makes sense than he was more human-like while doing the labors, but now I'm not sure how things work.
Like, he's always summoned with GH, right? And we got confirmation that he had GH in FSF at first, right? But his body was the same as in the flashback (and only got skinnier and smaller after corruption), so... the absolute unit of a body he gets as a Berserker is more due to the class than GH itself? And he would just look as a normal, more-than-two-meters-tall, ripped greek if he was summoned in a non-Berserker class (even with GH)?
Agh I hope I'm not making my question more confused that it should be.
Spoiler:
IIRC his thing for the fourth labour (the boar) is Chiron's immortality, so it doesn't directly have to be the labour itself.

I do think the deer will be, like, the concept of chasing it for a year, the stables'll be the flood or the embankment, the cattle of Geryon will have something to do with either the Pillars or Helios's boar, and the apples will have something to do with holding up the sky. Maybe it'll be like a gravity style attack where he drops the sky on someone.
Anti Purge maybe?
He's more monstrous due to being a Berserker. More human/normal when an Archer.
Oh shit. Narita's totally going to have Alcides hold the Bull of Heaven when it comes rolling into town and claim that he held up the sky so holding up a storm like this is nothing.
Though abandoned, forgotten, and scorned as out-of-date dolls, they continue to carry out their mission, unchanged from the time they were designed.
Machines do not lose their worth when a newer model appears.
Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
he'll just use reincarnation pandora on the bull and strip it of divinity
If we go by Atalanta's skill description, the apples are supposed to be an irresistable lure (unless the idea scrapped entirely). But it's hard to tell if Alcides' denial of divinity reflects on them as well.
I'm pretty sure Atalanta's golden apples are different from the Hesperides' ones, and different again from Paris's.
Well, the sources are variate. I remember reading one which outright state Eris stole the apple from Hesperides. It would be weird to have 3 different types of golden apples provided by gods
Just think of it as modern mobile phone versions, Golden Apple XS, Golden Apple XS Max and Golden Apple XR. In fact I'm surprised that this hasn't already been made into a joke
It's the same
LOL
Yeah, FGO spoiled Narita's plans once again
Spoiler:
It's almost as if others will eventually get there if you don't do things fast enough first, Narita-san.
GO SQH is pretty different from what would have been anyway, since GO's is from a Lostbelt. I don't see the need to change here, SF's version would just be Proper Human History's QSH.
I wonder how much Constellation Wank Herk would get if he were made nowadays, considering how in addition to himself like half of his labors also have Constellations of their own?
The muscles, the spiky bits on his arms, and the more generally "monstrous" aspects of his design are all due to Madness Enhancement.

Eh, Chiron barely gets any and he's up there in terms of constellation fame. Then again he's not on the new side either. Guess we'll have to wait and see how constellations get treated in a post-Orion world
