Fate/Grand Order General Discussion (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

[Oz1337]

Welp, Arjuna got a skill upgrade. Nice.

[Nikiri]

Nezha NP, that's nice

- - - Updated - - -

Arjuna gets NP each turn on the NP charge skill, Nezha just increased dmg (and burn)

[rxrx]

You know, no matter how Arjuna gets buff, he seems to lack the flair of the other 5* Archers.

[Comun]

Nezha's NP damage and burn got stronger.

Arjuna's Endowed Hero got its cooldown reduced by 2 and he now gains NP every turn for 5 turns.

[Oz1337]

Nezha NP, that's nice

- - - Updated - - -

Also the cooldown of his skill is reduced from 12 to 10. This is a really good upgrade honestly. He got the holy trinity of HP regen + star per turn + NP per turn.

[Herod]

That's a HUGE upgrade for Arjuna.

I thought the datamine just said this new buff/skill existed, not who got it? And given the context and what class/rarities was coming up, it was just assumed to be Avalon? Where did Emiya come into this?

I thought Emiya also got the special invul in the datamine?

EDIT
Nezha and Arjuna today

[Aozaki-desu]

More np on arjuna actually sounds interesting, i presume it maxes out at 10? better farming at the very least

Het gets 10% NP per turn which is not bad at all, I was expecting them to gimp it at 5%.

[GDB]

You know, no matter how Arjuna gets buff, he seems to lack the flair of the other 5* Archers.

Because they keep giving him weird utility or "per turn" gains/regens. Most people don't care about that when they got the likes of Gil and Ishtar, or even Tesla.

I thought Emiya also got the special invul in the datamine?

I don't think it specified anyone at all (not even Arturia), because they aren't NPs.

[Aozaki-desu]

oh, but not useful for 3 turn buster memes because you cannot press it until turn 3
still, its a nice buff which is actually in line with his skillset for long fights if you are into that

You know, no matter how Arjuna gets buff, he seems to lack the flair of the other 5* Archers.

he is on 3-arts busterNP category which is in that unfavorable place where you cannot NPBB but your arts suck because dw hate you
and his buffed skillset, while impressive on its own, does not really compare with the pure bullshit that Gil or Ishtar have

- - - Updated - - -

He would actually compete (somewhat) if he got antidivine damage instead of antidivine instadeath WHICH NEVER WORKS
speaking of possible new mechanics there will be no second np or 4th skill until FGO 2.0
they pretty much admitted they'll need new client for that (which has been in the works for a while now if i had to guess by a side department or something)

i wish they would rework instant death (would be in line with Cu buff) so that it actually does SOMETHING, ANYTHING
i would geniunely count as worthwile improvement

however, given the sad fate of command codes or the stupid shit they introduced last anniversary, i do not have high hopes

[Oz1337]

So whoever wanted a Surt fight, it didn't happen. Instead we got Skadi and Valkyrie fight.

Same for LB1, instead of Ivan fight we got the first fight we had against Anastasia.

Do we really have to get these lame fights?

Edit: Btw, you get your second free CE ticket after you beat the LB1 fight.

Eh, think today's memorial selection has been the best so far.

[GDB]

Since the website doesn't list a 6pm time for the last day like the other days do, does that mean they hit at midnight, or during/after the stream?

It starts at 8:15 AM for me according to Youtube, so I think at 3:15 PM in Japan.

[GDB]

No, like if you look at the SQ page, each of the days' groups (well, only one left now I guess) said 18:00 for their release. The last day doesn't and just has the day.

(And if I recall, the stream is at like 5:30pm JST.)

[R.Lock]

Revealed on stream, I guess.

[rxrx]

Hope it lives up to the hype.

[GDB]

Hope it lives up to the hype.

Not to be pessimistic, but (here comes the pessimism) it won't. I feel like the vast majority of the hype for this anniversary, besides the number itself, was supposed to be real life things. Those are canceled, for obvious reasons. They COULD, in theory, work quickly to add virtual things for people to enjoy, but they know their fanbase (within Japan, at least) will understand the circumstances and give them a pass for not having much prepared due to covid.

I guess, but FGO is not doing a very good job IMO.
