    It took so many quartz to get Ibaraki that my expectations aren't that high for MHXX/BB, but I'm certainly going to try.
    Still think I'm more likely to grail Ibaraki to 90 than MHXX. I really like the banana oni.

    Wonder if something is going to be announced for tonight. Guessing a week event then rolling into Prisma, though we might just skip straight to Prisma.

    I was expecting us to dive straight into Prisma, but at this point there'll probably be a bit of a gap.

    Prisma's a weird event for me, since I had some issues at the time that it was first released, so I missed it on my JP account. And there's yet to be a rerun of it, so I'm only vaguely familiar with it at best. But even then... I wasn't too broken up over missing it, and I'm still not especially interested now.

    I mainly want the Welfare Servant because she's another instance of a 4* Servant secretly being a 5*

    I'm very interested in getting the absurdly good welfare servant.

    I mean, by the very next strengthening, Emiya is fixed. He's just AoE while she's single target.

    I'm going to take the welfare and put them into the second archive, where they will never see the light of day

    I'm annoyed that you have to ascend them 3 times to complete all the missions and get the lore

    If I didn't roll Squirtoria I'd be tempted to grail her to 90 later.

    And there it is, 1/2 AP Training Grounds. Nice, I could use some blue and red gems. Funny how gold-rank materials seem to be the most common while bronze and silver are exponentially rarer.

    Better than that, they're updating the Training Grounds. New enemies and all(?) the new mats now drop in them.

    "Materials such as Spirit Root, Tearstone of Blood, Warhorse's Young Horn, Black Beast Grease, Homunculus Baby, Eternal Gear and Meteor Horseshoe will now be available from Training Ground battle drops."

    I'm going to be grinding out a ton of gems for Martha.

    Got some bonus quartz, one last pull. Nothing good. Oh well.

    *facepalm*

    Fellow F/GO enthusiasts desperately grinding out the event in the last day, do not be like me and forget to check for new shipwreck quests that may or may not contain hundreds of mats and save you an apple or three's worth of farming. >_<

    Almost done with the farming, just 200 more bags of cement to buy out the claws. I could go for the grease too, but I have plenty of it since nothing actually seems to use it.

    I really hope medals aren't a pain in the ass to farm after the update.

    Medals aren't on that list, and even in JP they're still farming in Camelot. The rest of the new mats have bad-to-terrible rates on the Training Grounds, so if you're desperate for them you're better off farming specific nodes for just that item. They'll probably just serve as pleasant surprises while farming gems.

    They aren't likely to release a node with a better AP to drop ratio than the Royal Castle any time soon, honestly, even in JP

    Drop charts have it listed at an estimated 57 AP per drop, which is roughly in line with even the best farming spots added in later chapters for older materials (55 AP per drop for Feathers in Salem, 55 AP for Serpent Jewels in Agartha, etc)

    Hello friends. I like spreadsheets and charts. Do you like spreadsheets and charts?

    First, I would like to thank everyone for participating in the informal survey over the past couple pages. I also want to add the necessary disclaimer that I am happy for each and everyone of you and wish you no ill.

    (That said, I know whose home I am breaking into to rub their head for luck before rolling in the future.)

    Without further ado, please be entertained(?) by a more visual representation of how the thread performed.

    Methodology: Convert tickets into equivalent quartz, sum up, divide as appropriate against reported totals.

    SRs:
    gvPw3Sw.png

    One poster hidden from data set as they did not produce their SR count in a central place.

    SSRs:
    FILZnKl.png

    Pour one out for Stilts and Reynolds, who technically do not make it onto the chart by dint of not rolling a single SSR.

    Happy(?) gachaing~

    Yep. That lance is a FEIKA.

    Clearly an Artificial Newtype.

    I mean, it's not that the lances gave Artoria the big chest. The reason behind that is Excalibur was suppressing her growth, keeping her eternally young from the moment she drew the blade. Without it she just developed as normal. The likely reason this didn't happen with MHX is that it hasn't been long since she took up the lance, whereas both Lancer Artorias are being summoned from the point where they have spent years without Excalibur, if they drew it in the first place,.

    Honestly, I kinda wish we could get Older Artoria for Saber form, too. I like how much fiercer her hairstyle and face look compared to her classic Saber-face style.

    Artoria that just kept on rocking Caliburn

    The weaker holy sword would make her a 4*, but ironically because all 4* Artoria are better than 5* Artoria, she would still be stronger than the 5* OG

    Well, LAlter's profile says that it could be either natural growth or Lance Magic

    The fact that I knew this without needing to look it up makes me sad
