    Yeah, but I have enough of a spread that a new NP1 for most of those isn't going to be better than NP2ing something I already have. DPS caster is one of the few things I don't have (because I didn't get Nero #3 dammit), I already have NP2 big snake, and I have a strong ST and usable AoE for every other class except Caster (though the 5*s are all NP1, it's still going to win over a NP 4*). This choice is hard - there's a lot I'm tempted to grab for collection purposes in there.

    Hmm, my "actually useful to have" picks would be Parvarti or Tomoe, with a heavy balance toward the former.

    Nice to haves would be Salter and Nero, though I have zero need for any additional Sabers. Possibly Nezha? Gorgon for fielding multiple Avengers? Make Herc NP5???

    I think I will pick someone just out of sympathy, because I don't really need anyone gameplay-wise. My weakest class is Assassin, and we will get Shiki event rerun next month, so I will finally be able to grab her as a welfare .

    My options are CasGil, Caster of Midrash or NP2 Tomoe.

    Before X alter I got spooked by two bananas.

    I actually have every SR Zerker which is weird.

    @Stolls if you don't have Herc I very much recommend him. Dude is amazing for challenging content.

    I was trying to pull for Jeanne Alter on the current banner

    Instead I got another Tamamo Cat (NP3 godammit) and an Enkidu

    So...I guess I have a 5* Lancer now? If only it was a character I gave a shit about...

    Yeah, it feels like a pretty big hole in my lineup. Between Ibaraki and Pent I'm not hurting for single-target berserkers, but Herc is goddamn survivor. The supports I've tried have dominated in single combat, and I swear he's a 5* in disguise.

    If Herc's a 5* in disguise than Cuzilla is a 6* in disguise.

    Pretty happy with my progress this event. Didn't play much at all yesterday and only a little bit today. Shop cleared early, 20 True boxes, and 27 Fake boxes as of tonight. I'll do a little more tomorrow, but probably not super heavy farm.

    Maxed some more skills and raised others. fully leveled 2 SSRs and 2 3*s, and raised a number of other low stars up more. I'm good.

    Nice of them to give us more than a week with all the ember quests so we can level everything, in case the lottery wasn't enough.

    Ok I can't decide between Parvarti and Tomoe. Both would be filling a sorely-needed weakness in my lineup (I'm too reliant on Shishou and Archtoria). But the former would be good to have for Quick meta, near as I can tell.

    I want JK Saber or Too Moe but Story Locked is pushing me to pick Blind Asshole Knight or Sitting Old Man.

    I'm probably going to pick a single target Archer, because Orion isn't really cutting it unless the target's a male Servant.

    I had this complicated strategy for grinding the Saber mission in 3-4 turns for that last event.

    Then I realized I could just take a friend Gilgamesh and do 100k+ to the final battle without even worrying about buffs and setup.

    While other fox lady is on my list...

    I'm leaning Nezha or Circe atm I think. Maybe Parvati. Tamamo basically covers my lancer needs but I have all my ST needs covered anyways (once I finally skill up MkI anyways).

    Not...entirely sure which 4* I'm going to get. Of the top tiers that are actually available, I've had Herc since the beginning, I already have Lalter, and while Saberlot is supposedly good, I already suffer from Too Many Sabers syndrome.

    I may go with one of the casters, since my current roster of 4* and 5* casters consists of: Waver, Nero, Xuanzang, Helena, Nursery Rhyme, Medea Lily, and Halloween Elisabeth. Of those, Nero and Xuanzang are offensive casters, Helena is redundant when I have Waver, Medea is a dedicated healer, and the other two are...well, even if I did want to use them, they aren't better than Nitocris, Gil, or Midrash.

    My other option is picking up Avenger of Shinjuku, since my only other Avenger is Gorgon, but I'm not really thrilled about that idea.

    So yeah, leaning heavily towards Gil, Nitocris, or Midrash right now.

    Looking at who I'm still missing, my options are between Chiyome, Danzou, and Circe. Considering that Danzou is story-locked I think that's who I'm opting to grab.

    I think I'd probably NP2 someone rather than get any of those

    Unless you like the character, in which case grab whoever you like, but Danzou and Chiyome hit like a wet noodle

    I mean, when you have every welfare NP5 and the inevitable collection of playing from launch... yes, I think I can afford to just pick someone for fun.

    Although NP2 Tomoe IS tempting, I'll admit. But then what would I do with these hundreds of embers?

    Independent of my obvious bias on the selection, keep it mind that between NP5 Chloe and NP5 Altera Santa, NP2 Tomoe probably isn't going to get a lot of work.

    This is actually a 'problem' a lot of the not obviously top tier 4*s who've been and will be released over the next couple years will face. They don't have Interlude NP ugprades because fuck you, so they actually just don't compete on damage at all vs welfares.

    Yeah, though I refuse to use Chloe on principle. Whoch you know, I have Archuria, so... And we have welfare ST caster coming up this year to cover that.

    Okeanos is built on NP Arts spam while Midrash is built on NP Arts spam that hits very hard

    Okeanos's NP is Buster, not Arts.

    But yeah, Midrash is an offensive damaging Arts Caster.

    Opened all my boxes, really wish I could have done more because I only have 150m QP and I plan on these lotteries to fuel up for the year. Was able to finish something up though.
