    I love d'Eon so much

    Not very versatile. But great at what they do.

    Loving them both...
    George tanks hits, dies, and goes your party a death buff. His Bond CE is especially good for this.
    D'Eon tanks hits, lives, and provides lasting defensive support.
    (Mash is somewhere in between.)

    Really looking forward to French Waifu/Husbando Knight's animation update in NA.

    Sigurd is a crit based servant with Saber star absorb and no absorb boost, his Mana burst has an albatross (Guts) around it's neck giving it a long CD...

    And then I don't even know what to say about his third skill

    His star absorb can be fixed with a CE, but it's always worth pointing out that doing that comes at the expense of something like like Yakisoba Bread

    I just finished Babylonia. I may or may have not shed some tears over the sheer epicness of the climax.

    I think I will leave Solomon for the next 1/2 story campaign, which should be at the end of April, just before SERAPH. I still need to finish leveling up Mash (72 lvl) and Sanzang (78 lvl), not to mention skills of the rest of the team. I would like to finish last singularity without help of friend supports, but I dont know how viable this will be (even though I used story supports 90 % of the time during story, I still had to borrow op servants during some moments of Camelot and Bybylonia just to progress faster).

    Solomon is fairly short, so I don't think I'd wait for a 1/2 AP thing. I did most everything leading up to the final couple nodes in one sitting.

    You might struggle on the last couple fights of Solomon without bringing friend supports, depending on what you have.

    Edit: On the prior topic... Shiki's niche is probably more in that debuff clear on her NP and being tanky if you want something that sets her apart from other sabers. Her first two skills are both solid too, even if her attack is low. But yeah, still niche unfortunately (Assassin shiki is better at dropping annoying things that are vulnerable to instant death ultimately)

    Assassin Shiki is still my favorite Assassin even if NP1 Jack is ever so slightly better in most cases

  • PolaritiePolaritie Sleepy Registered User regular
    Assassin Shiki and Rider Kintoki are really a class of their own as welfares go. Both are on par with 5*s for putting the hurt on.

    Assassin Shiki is very close to NP1 Jack for the most part

    The one place she falls behind is that Jack has absolutely bonkers-ass absurd NP gain to the degree that it doesn't even matter that Shiki has a NP charge skill

    My Saber Shiki novas so damn hard in AoE. The Instant Death is nice when it happens, but mine is strong enough to AoE down Archers half time. She bursts way harder than Nero. And also has that Defense Down and Debuff Clear.

    Then again she's also NP5....

    And yeah, as long as the enemy doesn't NP she doesn't die. Especially in an Arts team. I love her.

    And I absolutely love it. Jack can throw out an NP, double crit on two Quick cards following, and she's got full gauge again.

    Though the video of someone destroying break bars like nothing did feature Shiki for the Rider boss, since she can get buffed by Tamamo and other Arts spikers.

    I'll just be over here in the corner with my many AoE Buster Sabers. And the one bad single target Buster Assassin. Sigh.

    Rolled my Dantes CE.

    And three copies of Arthur beforehand because 1% must be more common than 3%. Picking Hot Sand now.

  • MaddocMaddoc I'm Bobbin Threadbare, are you my mother? Registered User regular
    The two free gallstones from the Arthur quest are almost more important than the summon ticket, honestly

  • ReynoldsReynolds Gone Fishin'Registered User regular
    I put that summon ticket into Arthur's banner, because why not? Golden sparkles. Gold Saber card. This would be like my 5th or 6th copy of an Arthur, more if you count Mordred.

    Siegfried NP2.

    Sieg's actually somewhat decent now, if that helps any. It helps that he does IIRC ~130k damage against those poison lizards in Babylonia. (They're Lancer Dragons!)

  • MaddocMaddoc I'm Bobbin Threadbare, are you my mother? Registered User regular
    One of these days I'm determined to level my NP4 Siegfried

  • vagrant_windsvagrant_winds Overworked Mysterious Eldritch Horror Hunter XX Registered User regular
    Siegfried gets his final strong buff soon, whenever the next Rank Up Quest is.

    No Arthur with my rolls, but I ended up with two Detective Dantes, a Lewd Enkidu, and MLB Fianna lol. And a token roll on last year's banner + the free pick got my MLB'd Beasts.

    I really would have preferred if Archer just got better in Evil-based teams rather than just making him also work in other teams, but whatever. A buff is a buff, and the servants I tend to use him with on that account (Robin Hood, Archer of Inferno, Ishtar) aren't evil.

    New JP servant for next GUDAGUDA event:
    Nagao Kagetora, a younger version of Uesugi Kenshin, who is actually theorized by historicians to have been a woman in disguise (with very compelling arguments!), which makes her the most justified example of genderbending in this game.

    Do we know for sure if they're going to be in the next GudaGuda event?

    I hope so, though.

    But yes, I'd love Kenshin.

    Gonna be waiting a long time for more CN servants after the last Lostbelt.

    I don't hate the characters they gave us but they weren't who I most wanted.

    @Asthariel I am very cross with you. You left out one of the biggest parts of that reveal.

    Why would you deliberately not copy/paste the part about them being Satsuki Yumizuka's servant!?

    We have Tsukihime and Melty fans here!

  • MadicanMadican No face Registered User regular
    I just did Arthur's trial quest and now I guess I'll wait for his eventual buffing, because it's got to come some time right? Even Artoria got that Instinct change.

    Guda Guda Lite starts on March 12. Finally I will be able to complete my welfare list with Nobu, who is also one of my favorite characters. Didn't really play this last year, but going by that KnK room I anticipate much goofiness.

    My only Melty Blood experience is coming in 3rd or 4th in a tournament at an anime convention. Because I was walking by and they needed to get people to fill out the bracket. I had no idea who anyone was or how the game played. Noticing the roster was 90% female I picked one of the...two?...male characters. Since I'd usually do the opposite in other games. Doing a search, I believe this was Roa (or possibly Kouma).

    I beat the first guy while figuring out my buttons. I had figured out moves and a basic combo (the Fierce, Fierce, Fireball equivalent I believe) by the time I finished off the second. Then the third guy actually knew what he was doing and destroyed me fairly easily. I think they gave me like, some Pocky for hanging out and not just wandering off.

    Zhao Yun, full stop.

    (Guan Yu is also acceptable.)
