    Dumped my sq in, honestly just hoping for 3* story locked servants

    Ended up with NP5 Jaguar Warrior and, womp womp, Caster Gilles

    Ten tickets got me two 3* CEs, Jaguar NP2, and some actual real garbage!

    How'd you pull Ishtar and Eresh, they aren't on this banner

    I will destroy you.

    I spent three hundred quartz failing to get Merlin, and then got Musashi in a yolo ticket. Randomness is very random, it turns out.

    Note also that there are people who have spent thousands of dollars failing to get the Servant they wanted. Gambling's bad for your health.

    I swear I have better luck with tickets than with quartz. Scathach, Mordred, and Shuten all were accidental ticket pulls.

    Did ten ticket pulls because I am pathologically incapable of holding on to the damn things and got one of each event CE, including Chocolate Orangette which I was kind of hoping for to stick on Archtoria (because her NP generation isn't stupid enough yet).

    Jalter's chocolate scene was great, and reading the description of the CE along with this event just confirms that Shakespeare is my favorite, along with Mephistopheles.

    This rerun is so much easier to farm with the molds so I can run a team with class advantage without using berserkers.

    And it let me use last years CEs for bonuses until I hit all five sweet crystals...

    This shop also has a lot of mats I need... but chocolate CEs...

    Edit: Void Shiki's is great, and makes me feel bad for not using her more. But NP3 Altera kind of covers that farming niche and I haven't tried to run her for tanky...

    The molds really do make everything so much better. I made a team focusing entirely on getting Caster coins with a +28 modifier and I hauled in over 400 of that type plus the All coins and just regular chocolate. Considering each mold costs 10 chocolate to purchase and there's always a chance to get one as a drop it's going to make cleaning out the entire shop way simpler than I was initially dreading.

    Which is good because with 74 chocolates to get and 74 chocolates to give that was a true hell I was about to walk into

    I don't think I'm going to get all of them either, it'll just make the ones I do go for easier than last year where I was juggling specific time frames for a higher "chance" at certain classes of enemies without any of the really good options now available to mitigate any of the grind. It was a pain in the ass.

    Mostly just want to clear the ascension stuff from the shop, aside from pieces/monuments.

    My first ten roll and a few summoning tickets got me spooked by Drake, which is a particularly sweet NP2.

    Knocking out Sabers first. New ones from last year...

    Eli Brave was cute.
    Musashi just being Musashi.
    Caesar's was surprisingly reasonable.
    Gawain's was funny/fangirl bait.
    Sumanai is just a dork and not even funny.
    D'Eon was cute.
    Gilles was also a dork but somehow foreshadows S.Jeanne so that is okay.
    Fergus was...the implication.
    Bedivere was a cute dork.
    Lancelot up to all his old tricks.

    I should add that the VA for Saber Gilles that was added in the JP version this year was spectacular.

    Arash is a good boy
    EMIYA is too much
    Orion was surprisingly not terrible and funny

    Billy was meh
    Touta was a little silly but fine. He needs more characterization time.
    Tesla was entirely goofy and ham, as usual
    Robin's was fine, more of a backstory piece

    I have no romance in my soul, so I only grabbed two valentines and focused on clearing the shop. I used 3-4 golden apples (I dont remember) today, I still have 10 left, and if my calculations are correct, just by using daily AP I should be able to buy from the shop everything except for class monuments and pieces (and maybe even some of them, if I decide to burn some apples after all).

    Should I hoard my mana prisms? When will be a next time some really pricey CE like Chaldea Lunchtime becomes available?

    New Berserkers (farming these out sucks)

    Banana was bullied
    Ecchan was short, but cute
    Fluffzerker was a good boy
    Bloodaxe was strange
    Caligula was meh until surprise Nightingale cameo (although if giving someone a thing of Nero back as a gift doesn't signify the mess that was Septem, I don't know what does)
    Spartacus was Spartacus
    Darius was eh
    Beowulf was cool
    Herc was fine
    Berserkalot was short but amusing
    Lu Bu was cool

    And Extra

    Jalter was hilarious
    Martha was okay

    Finally all done with Valentines. I'll slack the rest over the next week on natural AP and farm for the rest next weekend

    For Berserker I'm taking the tack of three in the front are carrying the +2/+3 to all CE's so I can field units that destroy the Berserkers before they kill me, especially that chimera, and back row is three Berserkers with the other CE's.

    I stopped bothering with Royal for Berserkers. The possibility of gallstones isn't worth the headache of the aoe killing my DPSers and then having to do the rest of the fight with a very weak low cost backline.

    But I'm also not plugsuiting or bringing anyone else who can blow an NP to kill it and various other alterations.

    Yeah, it's a lot easier if you have someone like Archuria. NP the big guy, then NP the boss, then NP what's left, then wonder what you're supposed to spend this full NP charge on.

    I've been clearing the Berserkers by using Chloe to easily one-shot the boar and Nobu to one-shot the entire last wave. Thanks, Raikou, for having both of the traits that Nobu's NP gets boosted damage on.

    Granted, I don't have enough gacha CEs to care about loading my team up on berserkers.

    I swapped to Royal Casters now that I'm in slack, anyway. Always need Demon Hearts whereas Gallstones are a bit less in demand.
