Fate/Grand Order General Discussion (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

[Trubo]

Yeah, and it lasts 3 turns versus Ozy's.

[rxrx]

Rama's sister in law would be much more interesting if she isn't a saber face.

[GundamFSN]

doesn't Saber lady have AoE buff chance up?

Oh wait she does? Dang, she's pretty good too then.

[Oz1337]

Oh wait she does? Dang, she's pretty good too then.

You need to max that skill to guarantee her buffs land, and believe me it's pretty much a requirement to max it since even at 80% chance to land it's very easy for buffs to fail (talking about Eresh first skill here). And that's quite the investment you're asking here, specially as she needs 36 hero proofs, 60 bullets and 20 valkyrie drops for each skill. Also that skill has 9-7 cooldown while the others are at 7-5 and 8-6, so you have to wait at least 4 turns to be able to reapply the buffs or play against RNG (and you will lose).

That said, her buffs are really good, so if you plan to use her often it is worth investing. But if you're not interested in maxing her out, I wouldn't recommend using her. There are a lot more Servants that at level 6 they're still pretty good while in her case you need to max that skill to guarantee you don't get screwed by RNG at the worst possible moment and to reduce its absurd cooldown.

[Aozaki-desu]

Okay i like Asclepius skillset

andi didnt know about power up against debuffed enemies notArjuna had
he is pretty fucking good, 2.5x worth or buffs by himself is a LOT of damage

[Oz1337]

Yeah, when I saw this datamine I though he would have one of the hardest hitting NPs in this game. He even puts the Buster Resistance Down before damage, the bastard. Give that ability to Okita Alter and Ivan please.

[Kelp24]

his Kaleido strats will be crazy

[Aozaki-desu]

oh yeah with power up he is by far the strongest raw baseline aoe in the game, 52k min of berserker damage
if i havent made any mistakes, its pretty late here atm

only 30% np refund though, it super limits you to plug swap for last 20% or you cant use waver merlin atk buffs wave 2 which is huge damage killer
so not very farming compatible
also obvious lack of interlude for likely a long time

great potential for aoe spam in challenge quest
farming sucks because limited to plug

he is good but not great

[Kelp24]

you could always cheese it with CS strats I guess

[Zork Knight]

As it turns out, neither Douman's familiar nor all the Hindu gods in the world hold a candle to Sanzang.

Now to get to the real Arjuna Alter battle(s?)

If by refund you mean has 30% instant NP gauge skill. His NP doesn't refund like how Saber's does.

He can potentially clear 2 waves even without using plugsuit, but dunno how many cases where the damage dealing 20% offering Servants will help all that much.

[Aozaki-desu]

yeah when i talk about farming i refer to all np charging abilities as refund
his damage is pretty good but its not quite up there (would be up there with the interlude)
he is probably worth going for np2, he would be / might be great eventually if decent solution for his 20% problem appears

clearing 2 waves without plugsuit with 30% refund as a buster servant is easily doable but because you need to save 50% atk from waver merlin for the last wave your damage suffers very much

[Trubo]

Yeah, Indian God of Wind, which Tell uses very well. That percentage to dodge attack buff which cannot be removed and has 30 stock is a pain if you didn't know it.

Eh, use Cu, Jaguar Man, or Sweet Chocolate to have no problems in that fight.

Even at NP1 he's noticeably stronger than Spartacus. More useful than Raikou too imo.

[Zork Knight]

Went into the Arjuna fight with a party similar to Aozaki's, except with Leonidas in place of Caster Nero for that 25% extra buster.

I didn't get to enjoy Merlin's 100% Crit Up, unfortunately, but the job was still finished without any hassle.

[Lobo]

Just remembered Asclepius description in /strange Fake, saying that his Medusa blood experiments made him looks like he's on his early teens. In game Asclepius looks a lot older than that, so I guess this form is pre-experiment Asclepius we are on a high chance of getting a shota third ascension.

Yeah, shota Asclepius was teased here some time ago, he should appear on the next FSF manga vol. at least

[Zork Knight]

Now to sit and wait until I can get all the good boys from the chapter.

3 10-rolls is good enough, right? Right?

[manafusion]

So, I'm in two minds right now. One is to roll for Arjuna Alter and attempt to fulfill my Berserker list, again. The other is to just skip for Summer 2017 gacha rerun since it'll probably be my last time to get Summer Nobunaga.

And yes, I'm currently just missing only Summer Nobunaga (and potential Arjuna Alter once he comes out).

You have a much better shot at getting an SR than an SSR. Skip, says I. And then be spooked by Schez.

I mean, if you were given a choice between story-locked Asterios Alter and potential last chance to get Summer Asterios, I think you're probably gonna do both, arent'cha? Also, shush you!

Might as well try for Summer Nobu.

She's a Summer Servant meaning compared to the 5 star main flavour of the LB, she so far is less likely to be featured again as often if at all (barring special circumstances). Being 4 star, she is also 'theoretically' easier to get.

Supah Indian Saiyajin

SIS

Arjuna Alter will be featured again & again during all the usual 5 Star rate-ups hoopla, though it would be slightly crowded further lowering the odds (Unless they do like a full Indian gacha thingy).

Also Rockin' Nobu is more fun & meme-y so I say save & roll for her instead. Her serious voice is also...Mmm~ totally not biased)


...Or throw all advises to the wind & just go roll for both (within quartz budget for each I assume).
