Fate/Grand Order - English

[Custennin]

I just did a damage test w/ double Castoria. I managed to get 517K with Nagao Kagetora. I’m looking forward to having hard content to use this in

LB6 is spread out over three months because it's so long. In JP it was June, July, and August, but for us it might start in May because they have to move stuff around to accommodate the earlier anniversary.

[Pendant]

Castoria is up again in LB6 btw but it's better to get her out of the way now cause all of the LB6 banners are top tier.

[naschyamamoto]

Managed to get Castoria with 210 SQ and 40 tickets- she came on the 37th ticket.
It's one thing to know "Castoria completely revamps the game" and another to experience it in real time, as Castoria looping makes your Arts farmers absurdly efficient. Waver, Bride and Para are now unneeded at best (I've slotted them in once or twice to try things out, but Melt Lambda and Space Ishtar both loop with Black Grail and double Castoria) and redundant at worst.

Today was a good day.

True. Outside of too many Berserkers, Musashi Berserker can easily do 3 whole waves with just Double Castoria and even if it's too many Berserkers, it's just 90%+ otherwise.
Summer Jeanne basically can do it against all classes and Scheherazade as well.
Even NP1 Summer Melt and Spishtar can potentially 3T with the MLB BG.
It really is extremely efficient on every level.

[Reign]

I might consider swapping Gil out for NP5 Summer Jeanne on my support now that we're in the arts era.

She was basically already 3 turning everything under the sun before this with the right setup because she's maxed out in everything but it's even easier now.

[OnesFleetingGlory]

Arts Up + NP Gain Up are really perfect combination, huh. Though it's sad that Arts Servants post-Castoria have their natural NP Gain gimped somewhat.

[Mattias]

Complete Unmitigated Failure.

Dumped all my quartz and tickets in and all I got was 4* Zerkers. And a fucking bait Nursery Rhyme.

And a Parvati, on the eve of Quick meta fading away.

Even GSSR got me Murasaki, and the one thing I don't lack for is AoE Casters. Her battery is only 30% too, so Ana and Nito aren't in danger of being kicked from the team.

And now I don't even have anything for Summer.

[telesbleach]

my time to not shine

360 SQ

1 Lakshimi (new)
1 Saber Diarmuid (new)
1 Circe (np3)
1 Yan Qing (new)
1 Carmilla (np3)
1 Berserker Atalante (np3)
1 Heracles (np2)
a bunch of trash CEs

0 SQ and 0 SSRs

now for the GSSR

Wanted BB, Emperor or Reines
Got kingprotea and Diarmuid (now np2)
she's new that's something i guess

[Tamamo-no-Mae Goshujin-sama]

I've learned my lesson last time so I let my friend roll this time and in under 300 SQ they got me NP2 Castoria.

Now I'm going to take Oz1337 advice and save for the Buster meta.

[Deathhappens]

I realized the CCC gacha was still ongoing so I dropped some 20 tickets and another tenroll in hopes of NP2 Melt, Passionlip or Kingprotea.
...I got 2 dupe Suzukas (on top of the one I got lsst week). Girl, you've been ignoring me for three years and NOW you decide you wanna speedrun my Chaldea??
(Ah well, she's cute).

By the by, any news on those anniversary SQ's we should be getting? I wanted to try out Arts Emiya at least once.

TBH we're talking about something that's happening a year+ in and unlike the Arts revolution Buster support doesn't really do anything new, it just enables more Servants to get a slice of the looping shenanigans pie. So from a gameplay perspective you don't have to worry TOO much if you miss that particular train. LB6 has a lot of very popular characters you'll probably want to roll for as well.

[Reign]

For what I think is the first time in all 5 years of playing this game, I am out of Crystallized Lores.

I completely blame append skills for this and my recent QP deficiency.

[Tamamo-no-Mae Goshujin-sama]

True but this is more about the 5 star Assassin and Foreigner to me. If the pity system is added early I may try to go for NP 5 for both or at least one of them. I may even try for the NP battery servant or may skip him depending on how I feel.

[Deathhappens]

? There's no Foreigner in LB6 that I recall. Second-best-Digimon-opening man is a Pretender, a new class.

[OnesFleetingGlory]

They're talking about certain Tamamofaces, befitting their username and avatar.

[Deathhappens]

That one's not until half a year later in 6.5 (New Year Servant to be accurate).

[telesbleach]

I am a simple man.

I see cool servants, i roll.

[Eriko]

Well, got in yesterday, did my GSSR and got new servants at least. Nothing I was really looking for in Danzo and Siegurd, but this is fine.

Had to brute force my way to Castoria sadly. Probably spent 800 quartz between all the free quartz, and the stuff I bought. Got her NP1. What I didn't realize is all the quartz fragments the aniversary gives you for completed mission hadn't been turned into quartz, so now I got 130+ more quartz. Might try for NP2.

[Kratosirving]

Lowkey, this Anniversary is its own actual progression 'Event' by having all of these damn Tutorial missions to complete. XD

[Reign]

Spishtar and Jarcher both loop but against a Lancer enemy NP1 Spishtar does more damage than NP5 Jarcher. I expected the NP difference to make it closer but no Ishtar hits WAY harder.
