    Three tickets on the new banner brought me the grand prize

    I'm not even kidding, that's what I was rolling for

    Also managed to pick up Ishtar with a couple dozen pulls, so today's starting off nicely. ^_^ I need a crap ton of servant XP, though, now that I've got a giant pile of ascension mats from the event. Whee...

    Make sure you give her a sign that reads "Worst Goddess."

    But I like her! I'm sorry, I had to rush Babylonia before I found out about the Internet consensus hate.

    (Also my other Archer is only good against the... like, 15-20% of enemies that count as Male. :\ )

    Orion or Euryale?

    If it's the former, she's actually good outside of that! Pair her with an arts support and watch her go

  • vagrant_windsvagrant_winds Overworked Mysterious Eldritch Horror Hunter XX Registered User regular
    Yeah, Orion is a generalist good arts/crit tanky archer who's good all around, and just exceptionally good in stall or anti-male teams.

    Euryale is an anti-male specialist only. She's really good at it, but it's all she does.

    Check out Robin Hood if you need a powerful Archer. The dude's Noble Phantasm is no joke

  • TenekTenek Registered User regular
    Euryale. She's been absolutely nuts on a handful of fights... (No NP for you! Also next turn, not then either) but squishiness + low level cap... just got her 4th ascension , too.

    Would like a good assassin, though. It's my only empty slot at this point.

    Sigh, I would like to roll for Quetz, but I've read enough gacha horror stories to know that I must continue to save for Merlin and Musashi banners reruns.

    I should have at least 800 SQ worth of both SQ and tickets by the time Merlin arrives, but it doesnt guarantee that I would get even one SSR, not to mention two...

    Don't discount Billy The Kid either, especially after all his buffs. Dude's a 3* Crit Monster.

    Summer rerun is coming up, and that'll give a free copy of Assassin Scathatch. She's AoE, which is a bit rare for assassins. Nice and solid.

    In terms of 1-3* servants, Cursed Arm, Koujiro and Jing Ke are all solid, if not spectacular

    Nah I like her too, I'm just referring to one of the story moments in Babylonia where either you or King Gil make her stand in the corner holding a sign proclaiming her as the Worst Goddess.

    Not too many Servants summon a planet and shoot it at your enemies, so she's ok in my book.

    Ishtar being useless is a story thing, not a gameplay thing.

    No love for Kotarou? He's pretty solid for an assassin. That's kind of an important distinction, though... really good assassins aren't easy to come by.

    Speaking of Ishtar.

    You probably didn't see him because Musashi stole him away.

    The main difference being whether you have Shiki. Top tier welfares make the lack of good assassins in the gacha less painful.

    I still have to grab Support First Hassans, Jacks, Shutens, and Cleopatras when running strong double assassin teams. MHX is my only 5* Assassin still. She's lvl100 though and wonderful. Just give me her 5 turn Dodge already.

    Shiki is really good for Arts teams though, yeah. And Carmilla is pretty decent, as is Kiritsugu. Plus, there's plenty of good 4* and 5* Assassins still yet to come out.

    I'm told that Carmilla gets kind of nuts next year, when she gets her NP interlude - +33% damage, and also the bonus damage against females becomes +150% rather than +120% (bringing it more in line with Jack et. al.)

    Even now she still has really good NP gen, though, and I'll never say no to Vampirism.

    Golden Sumo finally lvl100.

    A Moment of Tranquility lvl70. Could take it higher, but saving a couple CE bombs. Have a bunch others at the lvl25-40 range. And Drunk Jalter is sitting at 55.

    I have many CE bombs awaiting a bonus Exp event. Speaking of which, there's another lot of them in the mana prism shop

    But CE bombs get almost nothing out of an EXP event. It's the building them that does.

    Stored EXP never gets the bonus.

    Look at it this way. You don't get the exp bonus twice.

    Was hoping otherwise because leveling these is a pain.

    Anyway, since I don't need horseshoes today I did some Interludes instead. Brynhildr, Dante, and Orion. Dante and Nightingale interacting is comedy. Brynhildr is good but I already know her deal. Orion's though had me laughing with some of the dialogue options

    Who is everyone feeding their first Golden Fous to and why is it Jalter?
    She is probably not who I will actually be giving mine to...holding for an unreleased Servant.

    A. U. O.

    Tangentially related, finally got around to leveling up and skilling up my Enkidu a bit so I tossed them on my support lineup with Black Grail (Still need two more Black Grails for MLB)

    4/event +20 each, so you need 13 events to take one servant from +1000 to +2000.

    I dunno who I'll use gold fous on first. Jalter would be a solid pick, but then so would Saberlot, or even Ridertoki for MORE smash. Or I just throw them all at Bedivere.

    Looks like Rashomon rerun in a few days, and then after that we should get Onigashima rerun

    Good news for anyone who wasn't around or missed it the first time around, one of the best 4* servants in the game for free

  • SpectrumSpectrum Archer of Inferno Chaldea Rec RoomRegistered User regular
    Rashomon is such a meh event. Not real looking forward to it, for all that we get to introduce banana to Merlin.

  • MadicanMadican No face Registered User regular
    Eh, free materials and I can just adapt my Double Waver Jalter team to smash the banana really easily. Bit of a break sounds nice.
