Gonna focus on Assassin for Gray right now I suppose.
Gonna focus on Assassin for Gray right now I suppose.
Probably what I love more about the new Class-related missions is how they act as stats for each of us about the training of our servants, and how many we have gotten.
It sort of cracks me up that I managed to clear all of the Ascension missions thresholds...except for Archer, where I am at 96/100. Yup, one servant short lmao.
We will get Sugitani and that welfare gudaguda Archer in the future, but it is funny to see which class I have the least amount, which fits, I don't care much for any Archer in general.

Guess, who was a big idiot and spent some mats on Appends of Servants he never going to use to waste some QP instead of using them on his Berserker Class Score? That's right, me. I feel so stupid right now, lol. At least I got rid of 900 million OP that the Statues from the lotto have earned me. Also thank god for new portion of Fou Paws because I have already used all existing ones during previous rounds of the lotto. Now all excessive QP from lotto is gone.
And I still have all the QP from new missions untouched. Since they are permanent, I decided it's okay to let it just stay unclaimed until needed along with all 3 star Fous. Sifting through 500 missions step by step was quite the experience, lol, but now I am done to 211. Pity I don't have enough Servants to get all Grails, but what can you do.
New CQs done.
Ghosts: used Arash and Habetrot to pave the way, then Taisui, double Castoria and Proto Merlin. It was a really close call. Those crits are brutal even with Class Advantage on your side.
Winter: Taisui and double Castoria again. Did not understand what the gimmick was (and FGO wiki says nothing about it) other than one of my supports getting a cd on her unused charge skill, but apparently you can sacrifice a taunter to work around that. I hate the fact that I had to use a CS for 3rd NP, but it was a real ""all or nothing"" type of situation, and I had nowhere to get missing 10% from, because RNG gave me bad cards.
Mermaids: Tried Immortal team, but buff removal on a spammable NP makes it a no-go. Went to youtube for help, found Arash + Summer Ibuki comp (both with BG), and 3 turned it by happy accident, lol. This quest also forced me to finally buy Outrage because it was needed for the strat to work.
I also did my first 3 Bleached Earth Free Quests, and now I can say for sure spending 700 SQ for a single copy of Arjuna Alter was totally worth it, because he carried me through 2 of them (the third was Caster Liz so I used Liz to destroy Liz)

I have over 100 of each kind of gold fou now and not sure who to use them on... at least I was able to finish up Kotomine.
And wow thanks for the 550+ qp, with this and my boxes I'll have over 1 billion qp for the first time. Will all be gone by summer tho lmao.
Unless you're trying to refine a high-damage unit or to eke a little more out of an extra class's damage, it doesn't matter.
Right now, I hope people are realizing instant-death is now very useful on the Russia or Vegas nodes, and adjusting their supports accordingly. Best teatime lineup pound for pound is Castoria, Vitch, and either Nitocris or Douman.
I'm now back to stockpiling 4* Fous in my Second Archive. I should have checked beforehand how many that would be.
Still 249 outstanding missions, all of them QP/3* Fous. And looking at those still locked, Berserkers are the Class I leveled up the least, relatively speaking.
I solved the QP node for myself, since I am lacking in means to to inflict AoE Instant Death. A borrowed Douman with max Append + 2 chargers + Summer Erice. Should last me until the Anniversary, upon which my NP 2 Salter will finally get her buffs and I can try it with her instead.
Was a bit worried about Ibaraki node, the only one I actually need, but Arjuna can do that one as well. Now if only it actually dropped the Feathers...

I was wondering what everyone's thought were on the CQs.
Since I finished mine I don't remember each name but for me
The Ghost one was the easiest I got it in one with Draco, Lady A, Castoria Support, and Merlin. This team beat it on the first try.
The Nikitich took two tries I used Koyan of Dark, two Koyan of Light, and Summer Skaði. I realized I needed to Stun Nikitich before braking her last bar so I changed my Mystic Code. After that it wasn't to hard.
The crab one was the hardest for me it took 4 tries and I want another try at it. For it I used I used Koyan of Dark, Van Gogh, Dōman, Mash, and Koyan Light (support). I won due to dump luck. I was trying to use Dōman Insta Death on the fish man since it seemed he had a limited amount of resistance. I cleared his resistance and despite hitting him 2 more time he didn't fall. My team clear all but the fish man and he kept removing all KD's buffs but luck came on my third Dōman NP. I used all his skills and Van Gogh' NP was also 100%. I did a brave chain with a Koyan of Dark Buster and broke the first bar and luckly the fish man only attacked Dōman removing him from the battle but left KD with her buffs and me next turn had 2 of her buster card. I had Mash charge Van Gogh's NP then switch in Koyan of light help charge the rest while boosting KD. With 2 of Van Gogh's boost Koyan of Dark easy tore through the fish man with 2 Buster Crits.
They were cancer.
Ghost was long-term plan with Kirei/Castoria/Purrin. Had to use all three CS to keep the priest alive.
The Russians was easy once I remembered to stun Nikitich and use a CS to charge Tiamama turn 2.
Underwater was the most painful because I went in blind and ended up stalling with Tamamo/Castoria/Purrin for ~100 turns out of stubborness.
I already said how I did it, but if I was to rate my experiences:
Mermaids was a walk in the park with correct strategy and a bit of luck, Koyanskaya was also easy, but made me mad because I hate using even a single CS to win on principle, and Ghosts were just the worst thanks to all the gimmicks. Poor Taisui got hit with a crit on turn 1 and spent the rest of the quest being close to death (and he would actually have died if the battle hadn't ended first).
Can you elaborate, please? The boss spams NP that removes buffs before damage, how do you stall that?

I can understand being hesitant of using the CS full revive, but from time to time I use a single CS for this kind of fights.
Like, come on, peeps in the Fate series used them too, why wouldnt we? (outside of the fact that ours are rechargable, yes, but I disgress)
It removes buffs after the NP hits, so I just kept tanking them on luck, various defense buffs and Max HP U until phase 2 that was just far easier.
Also with CS refreshing fully each day on top of Class Score making them far more useful, there's 0 reason not to use them.
Whelp, really? After the damage, not before? Could have sworn my Castoria died from NP while having her stacks on. So I just got unlucky and could have done it with that super cool Morgan I borrowed after all. Now I want to replay the whole thing, but can't. Damn.
Do not care, still hate using them. To me using CS is basically admitting I am not good enough to win without cheating. And it reminds me how I had to use CS to revive back when my roster was shit multiple times, because I was too obsessed with progress instead of making actual effort.Also with CS refreshing fully each day on top of Class Score making them far more useful, there's 0 reason not to use them.

Nikitich I just looped
Ghosts I just looped
Merman I don't have patience for 1mil+ HP, I just used CS to NP spam with Lancelot.
Ghosts used Taisui
Niki used Van Gogh
And for Merman used Van Gogh feat. Hyper Musashi
Van Gogh + Castoria is a funny combo because the Evades, Special Invuls and Stuns buy way more time than you might think.
And Musashi is between the sexiest beatsticks out there, she never dissapoints.
P.D. I used one CS each on the first two CQs, I was planning to use one against the Merman, but things went relatively smooth there, in a way lol.

Man the bleached earth QP node sucks if Nito's instant death doesn't proc.
Use overcharge
Its finally Saber Shiki's time to shine (I could use Nito, but she is already Bond level 9, while Shiki is 6, 3 sq is better than 2 woop woop).
Can't deny its very cool that certain servants became more valuable haha. Douman is indeed the best one at this Instant Kill mobs thing, but others are THAT far behind.

I'm using Erice cause my Nito is Bond 9 and I don't have a Doughman of my own (I'm borrowing one). No overcharge because Kscope.
