    And that was less than half an year into FGO so she definitely feels conceptualized as final boss first and tutorial NPC second.

    By the way, RIP Europa’s Interlude.

    I... can't figure out what I should do against Koyan. Regular battle was fine but Super Battle got me stumped. The fear debuff is really frustrating to deal with since any unit without it means she applies it to all party members so enjoy getting random double/triple stuns and ruining potentially good setups.

    I highly doubt this will stay as her final form, but if it is then this will be the worst Beast design for me. And I already did not like VI's.

    I've also got problems with that random stun. I already almost lost a Servant during the normal run thanks to bad luck, but with all her hp it's just amplified so much more. Currently trying the super version with Tamamo, Melusine and Caster Artruia, because none of them are weak to her.

    I guess I can try that setup too. I just hate the stun effect as it's frustrating to deal with.

    Hm. Barghast is also another option.

    Very questionable choice of boss fights for the recollection quests this time around. I wish they put the Demeter, Zeus or Kirschtaria fight.

    How to win against Koyanskaya (easy mode):

    - Bring Habenyan, Tamamo and Alexander (if you have him at low level, enough to get his charm buff removal, the better for quick death, also give him a 1000 year obsession for NP seal if you have it).
    - Have Tamamo equipped with the stun immune CC, heal boost CC and debuff removal (or at least DoT debuff removal if you lack one) in her Arts cards. Put an attack up buff removal in any other of her cards to remove the attack up she will get in her last bar.
    - Also equip the heal boost CE on Tamamo (Halloween one with Tamamo Cat).
    - Bring the first Mystic Code we get in this game to deal with her last bar full charge and extra healing (plus attack up to make this fight shorter).
    - At the start of the fight, remove buffs with Alexander and use Habenyan third skill on Tamamo. Make sure you start with the stun immune CC card so you don't have to worry about getting stunned, though you can still try to see if you get lucky with it in the first turns.

    Once both allies are death, congratulations, you won the fight. Enjoy the boring but guaranteed win. Tamamo can easily tank her NPs with her second skill, keep the dodge for the first and last break bar in case you're low on health because of bad timing with NPs.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Btw, this fight made me max Tamamo's 1st append skill in hopes it would make the fight shorter (it didn't).

    Roa believes Tiamat is the better Beast to copy.

    Guess I'll knock out all the recollection quests and Dioscuri's thing today. Melusine existing certainly makes it easier to deal with Koyanskaya.

    I can't wait till beast shit gets wrapped up since you bring up Timmy. It's been such an underwhelming and dragged out concept. Started off ok with 1&2 but they did not keep it up.

    At least Kiara worked for the most part, but yeah, starting with Kama it's being rather mixed even if there's hasn't been many.

    Doesn't Enkidu work well against the Beast of Taming fight? Or do the changes in the super version mean they lose their advantage?

    Tamamo works well against her too.

    Bleh, even with some CS NP charge, couldn't get that with a full bond point team. Guess I'll use this Tamamo (Lancer) setup to min-effort it.

    Fewer bond points though.
