Fate/Grand Order - English

[Kratosirving]

Ahh that would be why then, I haven't done any of the Bounties cause I wanted to use my Artorium to unlock more nodes before doing them. ty!

[telesbleach]

talking about bounties, the Eli-chan one was a pain in the ass.

Went blind with Godjuna first, but all the burning stak destroyed me.

Decided to turtle it with Jeanne and her arts friends, took 75 turns to clear it, too much health to chip through without damage CEs, and the revive just make it take even longer if you mess things up.

[Deathhappens]

So, if you go into the final battle without having gotten all the Goddess Scriptures, you spoiler get thrown "past the event horizon, in the land of the dead" and get to chat with Ecchan before she kicks you back into the past to change history.Feels like a VN, I like it. Sucks that you act like you don't recognize her though...

Pretty cool.

[Genesys]

Without scripture 6, more accurately, all the other background knowledge from them is unnecessary for the plot purposes.

[Deathhappens]

You can't get that without having gotten the others, though.

[Genesys]

No, you just need to do emiya alter bounty, which only requires 3 other bounties (martha, tamamo, okitan) and none of those give scriptures.

[naschyamamoto]

Yeah, I'm very glad I stopped by Gamepress to check before doing the final sections. Getting storylocked on that would have been annoying.

[Broke]

Holy shit, that Liz bounty hunt was something else.

I had to use Martha with Merlin and double Waver to juggle Saber Liz's stupid invulnerability spam and Caster Liz's fire.

[mami-kouga]

I said fuck it and command sealed my way to victory

[Deathhappens]

Saaaaame.

- - - Updated - - -

My attempt involved summer BB for the burn immunity, but you really want double Merlin for the sustain/NP protection on this one.

[Herod]

Double skadi Dantes, break bars for everyone, plugin Jane, use third skill on Dantes, remove debuffs, NP and crit Saber Liz to deah, NP again.

Having finished the Credits and seen all the lines I had available for her (missing at least one person for each ascension, sad), I have to say Space Ishtar/Ashtart is the first to actually deserve being called a Rinface despite being perhaps the least similar in appearance. Between the two of them they really capture Rin's various sides without going too far. Ishtar and Eresh are both good characters on their own (even if Ishtar is unfortunately the butt of the same damn joke nearly every time she appears), but they're, well, not really Rin-like despite assertions that their host body influences their behavior. Which... might actually have to be chalked up as good writing, but was still kinda disappointing as a fan.

The one thing that is stressed out about Rin influencing Ishtar and Eresh is how they both mellow out considerably compared to how petty and ruthless they are as depicted in mythology. My guess is that Nasu wrote SWII so that he can write a much authentic Rin personality detached from those two.

I've been there. It sucks. F.

[Kratosirving]

Alrighty, done with the story myself now; Elly was ofc a pain in the ass, but I bulldozed ahead with double Space Ishtar and Merlin to provide the clutch Illusion when needed; did have to burn my CS though, and damn Brave Liz for seemingly spamming her Invincibility skill a lot, at least in my attempt. 98/100 done now, just have to wait for tonight's reset to unlock the last two that correspond to the Challenge missions. Both look annoying, though 5 tickets for dealing with the KOTR is great value. Just need to see how problematic their gimmick shield actually is. XD

Addendum, more as a reminder: If you have MHX, remember to do her Interlude that unlocks post-story.

[SpoonyViking]

Is it the one that upgrades her Skill? Because I could do that one even though I don't have her.

[OnesFleetingGlory]

Altera's party-wide Def buff removal really helped make the fight faster, though I'm still needing a CS revive.

Is it the one that upgrades her Skill? Because I could do that one even though I don't have her.

Does that mean her skill will automatically get upgraded if you get her in the future?

[Reign]

Yeah

[Kratosirving]

Oh, I figured it wouldn't be accessible if you didn't have her. I stand corrected then.
