    Because nobody puts Bride up consistently enough to make it worth it for me to use Mordred (Rider), Boudica, Bride, and choice of SSR event Servant, Nightingale (Archer), and choice of C/UC event Servant.

    With the aforementioned Astolfo setup, I'm getting 4/5 event-related Servants for bond gain, versus 3/5 in what I was using.

    I'm assuming Tamamo is in the lineup. Possibly Waver?


    Da Vinci (Rider) setup at about 3:30. NP1 works for refund, but won't consistently kill the bicorn from NP alone, and Edison will have about 60k remaining after NP on average. Can solve this issue by using plugsuit to swap Paracelsus with someone like Bride, Lanling, or Helena in Wave 2.

    Can't rely on Paracelsus yet. Instead I just used Tamamo, Waver, and Skadi. Works perfectly fine by bringing Skadi out on the last wave.

    As for me, Edmond still works on any node. Next is a Saber node so I'll whip out my NP2 Atalanta

    Cause this is the easiest setup I'll ever make so I might as well take advantage of it.

    Well, assuming we have regular Sabers instead of undead Sabers, there's not much reason to put CE on Bride if working off assumption of using Paracelsus tomorrow. Swapping it to Waver.

    If you think about it, Skadi both revived and killed Quick memes, depending on (aside from which Servant in question) when the Quick Servant was released.

    Your newer Quick Servants will still do well with her, but not necessarily "reliable 3T strat" well.
    McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.

    Well, I can't comment on Nightingale but of the AOE Quicks isn't it really only Medusa, Tamamo Cat, and Alexander who can't three turn under any circumstances? Like even "Skadi failures" like Okita J and Lakshmi can pull it off if you toss in a Waver or something.

    Welp, Astarte doesn't seem to work in any way, shape or form. Saber Wars II continues to disappoint even after its end...

    Don't forget about Xiang Yu. Bradamante was previously a fringe case, but the new event CE makes it a little easier for those lacking a MLB Kaleidoscope.

    Tamamo Cat is second best unit in the game for Arash+Quick Servant Farming

    That takes an Arash though. I meant NPing thrice in a row. I didn't even mean the unit is bad or anything, like Alexander is a decent buffer but he can't NP three times in a row.

    NPing 3x in a row is a very specific, highly conditioned strategy which isnt even the most effective thing to do in many situations
    Servant not being able to loop should'nt matter honestly, from a gameplay perspective


    Only thing noteworthy of looping servants is player being able to field them all the time to enjoy using them really, thats a big one not many servants in general have

    Youjo Vinci works. Youjo Vinci + Skadi + Tamamo. Don't need plugsuit.

    5 turns but it's fine.

    Arash/Mini Vinci with MLB CE/Ishtar with Kaleido/Skadi supp = easy 3-turn.

    Well, Jeanne (Archer) is working exactly as I expected. Shame the Saber mooks drop homu babies though, don't really need that mat while farming lottos.

    Do you need to MLB the event CE to use it for looping? Because I'm kinda shit out of luck with drops so far. Asking for Valk specifically, but just generally trying to figure out how to at least get to use all 4 of my event CEs and only one non-event one (kaleido).

    Actually, is that setup shown in the video only applicable to the caster ghosts (since both have higher refund)?

    - - - Updated - - -

    Actually, depending on what last node is I could go ahead and finally MLB my kaleido (only reason I haven't already is because I like the convenience of having a bunch of kaleidos, but I'll make due with the two IA's I have, I guess).

    This way I could use para with event CE for w1, then godjuna NP w2, and skadi 3 + godjuna 2 + MC for NP again.

    Hmmmmmmm...

    Did not expect Arcade to have Snegurochka Helena welfare.

    We'll never get her. Fuck.
