Fate/Grand Order - English

[Deathhappens]

I remember this from the first time this ran on JP, but I'm still mad about >Astraea, goddess of justice

NO, Reines, Lady Justice is the Titan Themis and your Greek history professor was a quack.

[Altima of the Gates]

So, I got Reines on my first ten spin and NP2 Luvia after I was done cashing out my 190 some odd quartz. I guess my love of ojous has served me well.
That said, since pumping up Parv and Kama I didn't have any embers and QP is down to about 40 million, so I'm glad for things coming up.

[Kratosirving]

This event is solid for passive QP gen though, with 500k every time you have a Rare enemy in your FQ run.

[OnesFleetingGlory]

Wow, so many Bone and Dust rewards here. Must be resources to help leveling up Gray’s skills.

Done with all quests for now. Some of them were harder than others, like Setsubun with constant Burn stacks, or Babylonia because obvious reasons.

[Strange_One]

15 tickets, 45sq, 200k FPs
Highlight was my second Kaleido.
1 5*, 2 4* and 3 3* CEs. Only one of those from FPs.

How curious. Being pseudoservants they irk me and so wasn't that interest anyway. And still no like the art for Luvia. Yet still still a certain pang from not winning the prizes. Fearsome this Gacha thing...

So this modern day girl who got magic mojo and a top tier magic item inserted in her outclasses the immortal master of runes and the land of shadows in holiday mode right? (will decide whether I max skills or not)

Also in first world world problems. Still don't know what CE to max next or who next to give Gold Fous and Grails.

[Kratosirving]

Who have you got Grailed and 2k/2k'd, and what candidates are you considering? I can provide some suggestions as to whom I would at that point. As for myself, my 2k/2ks are Raikou and OG Artoria will be there very soon. Grailed are Kuro and MHXX. Haven't really thought of whom to do next myself for the gold fous but I've got some time to think of candidates. Grails tho I haven't given any thought for a while, maybe soon I'll get around to it.

Also going by the hints there I guess you mean Gray > Summer Shishou, but not sure of the other one you're referring to, unless that whole bit of master of runes was also meaning Summer Shishou. :|

[mami-kouga]

58 missions done! This is a really enjoyable event with a pretty decent pace. My only criticism would be I want to hang out with Gray-tan more

[Reign]

The event kind of feels like it was written with Reines being the welfare in mind given how much time you spend with her. I'm glad they went with Gray as the welfare but it feels like that was a change from the original plan.

[SpoonyViking]

I remember this from the first time this ran on JP, but I'm still mad about >Astraea, goddess of justice

NO, Reines, Lady Justice is the Titan Themis and your Greek history professor was a quack.

She's directly or indirectly associated with both Justice and Law in various sources. For starters:

Pseudo-Hyginus, Astronomica 2. 25 (trans. Grant) (Roman mythographer C2nd A.D.) :
"[Constellation] Virgo. Hesiod calls her the daughter of Jove [Zeus] and Themis. Aratus says that she is thought to be daughter of Astraeus and Aurora [Eos], who lived at the time of the Golden Age of men and was their leader. On account of her carefulness and fairness she was called Justice [Dike], and at that time no foreign nations were attacked in war, nor did anyone sail over the seas, but they were wont to live their lives caring for their fields. But those born after their death began to be less observant of duty and more greedy, so that Justitia (Justice) [Dike] associated more rarely with men. Finally the disease became so extreme that it was said the Brazen Race was born; then she could not endure more, and flew away to the stars."

Nonnus, Dionysiaca 41. 263 ff (trans. Rouse) (Greek epic C5th A.D.) :
"[Aphrodite addresses her daughter Harmonia :] ‘[Zeus] promised . . . that he would commit the precepts of Justice (Dike) to one of the cities allotted to me. I wish to learn whether the gift is reserved for land of Kypros (Cyprus) or Paphos or Korinthos (Corinth) or Sparta . . . or the noblemen's country of my own daughter Beroe. Have a care then for Justice (Dike), and grant harmony to the world, you who are Harmonia, the saviour of life! For I was sent here in haste by the Virgin of the Stars [Astraia (Astraea)] herself, the nurse of law-abiding men; and what is more, law-loving Hermes has passed on this honour to me, that I alone be enforcing the laws of marriage may preserve the men whom I have sown.’"

I've yet to use a Grail. I did use the 2Ks/2Ks on my Caster Tamamo after I increased her max bond.

There’s precedent for this sort of thing. Melt got a similar amount of focus in SE.RA.PH

[Strange_One]

Just RL things so haven't been putting much thought here.

But I just remembered that that Ushi finally got an animation update. It's years ahead but may give her some grail and gold fous just because.
Also remembered my vague ideas - was considering grailing up a little the underleveled FSN crew. for all the good a few more levels will do for their low poweredness. heh.
Otherwise maybe grailing up my 4* team to 90. I like a lot of the 4* more than the 5* weirdos.

Clairvoyance tells me I'm not all that interested in what raid has - so I guess just BP & QP things.

...

What CEs to level huh... have any been notable since Aerial Buster, HND, Sumo?
Or shall I max another Imaginary Element...

- - - Updated - - -

Oh yeah. Looks like Gray is rated higher than the other AoE 4*.
Just mildly annoyed that this modern girl with NP becomes a servant in assassin class for tenuous reasons is better than a legendary immortal master like Scathach lel.

[Trubo]

You're not interested in some combination of scales, hearts, bones, dust, pages, babies, gears?

[Strange_One]

Being a kinda ocd nerd I used the material simulator and put in my servants, servants I'm interested in regardless of likelihood of getting them and mats needed.

Looking at it just now, I realise I'm covered for mats apart from some mats that haven't been released yet. I don't even need to shop clear events but I'm doing it anyway. lol.

- - - Updated - - -

Ah, main reason is perhaps because I'm being selective on skills raised - though that's more on lores than mats. Mainly up to three of my favourites from each class maxed plus a bunch up to 6 across the board.

can't remember what state that's on. maybe I'll up overall skills levels someday.

[Reign]

That's true, huh

[naschyamamoto]

I feel like you could argue the same for Okita Alter, though it wasn't nearly as effective there in my personal opinion.

[Herod]

Prisma too.

[OnesFleetingGlory]

In events your main travelling buddy is either the event’s SSR or its welfare. I think in Ooku Pārvatī could’ve been the welfare, which fits given her role as a foil to Kama, but then to balance out Kama being the only new Servant, that plan was eventually scrapped.

[eddyak]

Event length & writing quality.

Melt got this long-arse event, in which she takes over the Mash position, spends half the route telling you you're her bitch whilst aso protecting your dumb arse from literally everything, gives you good advice and gets quite happily attached to you, is happy when you decide to save Passionlip and herself, and then is revealed to have literally time travelled, killing two different versions of herself in the process, just to save you from Kiara.

Okitan shows up, is dumb and basically useless in fights, fights more, is slightly less useless, fights some more, is stronk now, is revealed to be CG, casts self destruct and takes the baddies with her, and then cries about how she doesn't wanna be separated from you, when the two of you haven't said ten sentences to each other that weren't "uh oh senpai, wyverns!".

They were trying to pull a blank slate character with Okitan, so if she didn't have the boobs, the ridiculous katana and those hilarious-awesome stilt boots, she'd basically be tanned Sieg.

Oh yeah. Looks like Gray is rated higher than the other AoE 4*.
Just mildly annoyed that this modern girl with NP becomes a servant in assassin class for tenuous reasons is better than a legendary immortal master like Scathach lel.

It's not the first time Scathach's been upstaged.

>Is released as a Lancer with ridiculously strong NP, but garbage NP gain, hitcounts, stargen, and a stupid shitty RNG skill
>Within a few months Tamamo In A Bikini Lancer is released, and her NP gain, hitcounts & stargen are all better, and her NP isn't too much worse than yours outside your niche

[Jin Uzuki]

Helena just decide to spook me on the Waver Banner, I swear to god this damn banner is fucking with me.

I expect to pull NP2 Shera with the next ticket at this point.

I'm enjoying this event though, but a different node unlocking every time you complete a mission is getting annoying.
