Heard something about the 7 Million Downloads thing that may be coming after Nerofest with the x2 Super/Great Success rates. Apparently in JP the event ran while it was still possible to open Nerofest boxes, so they didn't need to hoard EXP in any of their inventories or mailboxes, just wait until the boosted rates then start pulling.
don't hate just because you forgot to level your Best Witch for hassanfest

I feel like I wildly overprepared for Hassan Parade
My Da Vinci, Waver, Friend Tamamo (Thank you, single person in my entire friend list who kept her on your lineup) cleared the entire thing
The only death was Waver to Cursed Arm's final curse, since he didn't have a Guts CE on him so my back line never even saw any action
Sorry, Cu Alter with Necromancy
EDIT: My Da Vinci is in my All slot, if anyone else wants to use her for that, she's not completely kitted out but it's enough to do the job. Using her Golden Rule (Body) allows her to NP wipe an entire wave without eating any debuffs, and her Natural Born Genius is a 2000 HP Guts.
Some new information from that panel yesterday during the Q&A. Basically these Q&A's are literally the only way for Albert to talk to the fanbase because JP forbids him from using social media to do so. All the streams and big convention appearances, like that disastrous AX panel or the stream with the total rando playing through Fuyuki, are decided by JP and it's NA who has to go along with it. Albert tried to do some "chill" streams to rebel against JP but when they found out he got yelled at so that's a no-go. Even the social media promos and random rewards are dictated by JP, NA has zero say in the matter and they hate the "get 10 billion likes!" as much as the players do. In fact Albert said that when he wants to give out rewards to NA he has to justify a good reason to JP. This is why our rewards differ from JP, because again they have final say on what NA gets.
That said, the game is apparently very healthy in NA and he doesn't expect it to be in danger any time soon. And for all the control JP has over NA they have a vested interest in us not failing because FGO is the flagship for the Fate franchise to spread in the Western world. Also because if NA fails it's going to reflect on the JP company purely because they would be responsible for letting the biggest way to promote Fate crumble. This isn't like China, Korea, or Taiwan where their copies of FGO are managed by their own individual companies who aren't controlled by JP. If those ever stop being profitable or become a nuisance they can be culled because the responsibility falls to those companies, not JP.
I think Albert does a very good job with a tough situation.
I wish the JP execs would ease up a bit and give him more freedom, but I don't expect that to happen.

Got a surprising amount of use out of the Necromancy CE in the final challenge. Not reliable at all, but hitting one and possibly more 1000-health guts for free is lovely

Made it most of the way through box 19. Have scraped up enough QP for one skill!
Ascensions/Leveling:
Illya lvl90
Nightengale lvl90
Assassin Scathach lvl80
Nitocris lvl80
Caster Marie lvl80
Edison lvl80
Archer Anne Bonny (working on lvl80)
Every Servant I ascended for Interludes up to their next cap (around 12+ of them).
Skills:
Saber Shiki 2nd Skill maxed (all 10s now)
Archer Artoria 10/10/10'd
Drake 6/6/6'd
Nero Bride 1st Skill maxed (Octuplet Crystal hell for the rest)
Ozy's 3rd skill to 8 (hope to get him from 7/10/8 now to 7-8/10/10 at the end of the event)
QP:
Destitute
2 days and some hours left. I could have brought Waver's skills to 7/10/10 but I'm put my priorities on Bride and Ozy. Gonna get Ozy to all 10s before I spend pages on Waver. The King of Pharaohs needs to be the most regal so people can look upon his mighty works and despair. I also needed to get off my ass and start leveling Bride's skills while I actually could level one of them because I need to max her as well.
I'm just 3-4 turning it (depending on card luck) with Ozy, Tamacat, Arash (wave1), and double Waver. Was consistently 3turning, but running 4 MLB'd petal CEs now so either Ozy needs 10% charge on the first wave of I need some good buster cards between him and Tamacat on the Sphinx. Still an easy clear.
Oh, and Protection of the Sun God is now lvl10. RIP QP yet again.
1/2 AP embers is an odd choice following a lotto. I've already got every character leveled who I care to level, and am starting to put experience into servants who get multiple strengthenings just so that I can do the quests.
Sure, but the point of it happening after Nerofest was that we would then get to use all our hoarded box EXP with the boost. Now we have to open our boxes and try to fit as much as possible into storage before using the majority, something JP didn't have to do.
Also having Embers directly after a lottery is just baffling. I have over 1250 gold cards in these boxes already waiting to be opened, much less silver.

Just trying to clear at like a half dozen boxes a day now, which is pretty easy
Thanksgiving stuff, maybe? I'm not expecting completely new content, but some shuffled around events seem possible.
Also please tell us when the double super success is coming, I'm dying
After a friend’s Summer Martha dragged me through the final challenge, my feelings on her have warmed considerably.
Medea, on the other hand, has sunk even deeper in my estimation thanks to her endless, endless RULE BREAKERING

Someone did a full write-up of the panel.
I never really knew Emiya Alter's concept but reading what he mentioned about that then wow yeah what the fuck JP.
Finally stockpiling some QP again, as well!
Oh wait no I lied back to the QP mines : (

The biggest QOL improvement I'm looking forward to on NA is the drastically increased speed of burning through resources at the lottery.
Those command codes look real nice

Instead we have... completely unexpected 1/2 AP ember quests and singularity banners, with Bedivere included
Almost two years before we were "supposed" to get the first Bedi rate up
Weird
So unlike JP we don't get to take advantage of the boosted EXP chances with Nerofest boxes. That sucks.
Also having Embers directly after a lottery is just baffling. I have over 1250 gold cards in these boxes already waiting to be opened, much less silver.
No indication that's the case, though
Singularity Banner Filler again for some reason.
