Oh boy, all you need to do is get a huge amount of crit stars and then you've got a kind of low crit strength buff
Awesome
The heal is good, the crit damage is trash
EDIT: Honestly, the funniest part is that this is the same update where they decided Arthur and Raikou should get self 50%/60% crit damage buffs for three turns, and Osakabehime should get a party 50% crit damage buff for 3 turns
And then MHXA gets a rock
Maddoc on

Wooo, got Raikou and Emiya Alter on my second pull
Berserkers are squishy, but that's why you bring in support units to tank/heal/defensive buff. Even just putting in a Georgios makes them a lot more survivable.
...Or you can just do what I often end up doing and making a team of three Berserkers to buster chain through weaker nodes and hopefully survive.
AOE Berserkers also have the advantage of, well, being well-suited for three-turn farming setups. You don't need defense if nobody survives to attack you, after all, and since Berserkers have advantage against nearly all classes they're one of the best choices for mixed nodes (e.g. hands).
Used up my 13 tickets, got valleyfoxgirl and a fourth Emiya.
And I just finished max levelling all my servants, dammit. Getting two Alter Egos and their lack of bonus EXP was bad enough, now it's back to the ember mines the moment the event is over.
Gamepress did some calculations shoeing Medb has the most damaging NP against the first raid boss, so I've been using her with Nightengale and a support Merlin
It's been going alright so far, though I wonder if I could do it faster.
I decided to throw quartz in for event CEs to take the edge off farming this time, and the third pull got me Raikou. I don't think I'm allowed to complain about the gacha anymore.
After managing to get both Musashi and Hassan at the beginning of the year, I'd still be fairly satisfied if I didn't get anyone else noteworthy for the rest of the year.
There's still a few banners that I'm looking forward to this year, though. The only question is whether or not I will try to roll for NP upgrades for either of those two.
Can I complain about how the Saber oni has resistance to Arts, which is basically 90% of the good Archers?
And how the caster oni had resistance to quick AKA Rider Kintoki? Yes, yes you can. It's so aggravating and 3m takes so much fucking longer than Rashomon because of this shit.

It's the gimmick to get you to use the raid consumables.
They are not, but he still chunks them pretty good. Decided to try a Raikou solo DPS with the usual suspects for support because hey she's got a damage bonus.
She absolutely destroyed that oni. Her NP Brave Chain took 3/4 of the 6m HP and the following round she sucked up all those stars and obliterated the remainder

Yeah the whole event is just "Use Raikou to wreck everything" if you have her, her Mystic Slayer works on them as well
I'm not having a great time so far, I've forgotten what setups I used last time. I don't have any of the good single target Servants on the list. And I don't have Waver ready to go yet, to just grab a friend to do the damage.
Using the Servants on the list isn't all that important once you've got a lot of CEs. If you got MLB from last time around, the base amount is +550%. Since most Servants just give +60%, that's just a +9.2% damage increase over using a non-event Servant. The bonus is more relevant if you've got less CEs (each non-MLB gives +50%, so you could also replace with item CEs), but yeah.
...Actually, now that I look at the numbers I should totally just replace Chloe with Euryale for this event, huh. (Orion would be fine as well, but her anti-male bonus is additive with the CEs rather than Euryale's multiplicative.)

Today's raid has Euryale, Rider Kintoki and LuBu as the top 3 most damaging choices! Plus the best one for the third raid is Assassin Shiki.
Oh yeah, right, remember that if you use a Servant whose NP doesn't match the boss' defence you just get a free +50% Quick on Kintoki or +50% Buster on Lu Bu or whatever rather than just bringing Euryale up to default.
This is also why the third raid is going to be dead-easy, because buster resist doesn't do shit against Shiki.

Okay, you probably also grailed him because he's cool as hell.

This is unbelievable luck for me.
That's gonna be nuts
The buff is... pretty decent I guess
Osakabehime still seems kinda bad but at least now she has a decent party crit damage buff?
MHXA gets... Okay moving on...
Wu Zetian gets a NP boost woo
Raikou and Wu Zetian probably the winners this time around
MHXA's buff is interesting and good but a little gimicky.

How so? when you have 50 stars, the crit is guaranteed no matter the star weight.
Plus, she heals 7500 HP now.

Well OK then.
(Also realized my Assassin support was empty... Shuten-Douji being my only bonus servant this time, she should probably go there.)

I got my 5th Rama.
You know what, I'm fine with that.

Charisma is still at 7 and Guts is still at 6 because of Seed Hell. But it's a start.
Yay for +100% Crit Damage and +500% Absorption on a 4 turn cooldown..

It is law
Also, I love how many folks are bringing Raikou home
Enjoy your murder moms!

I can only wait for Anniversary GSSR.
There's still a few banners that I'm looking forward to this year, though. The only question is whether or not I will try to roll for NP upgrades for either of those two.
I'm afraid I might be cursed for that, though
I broke my iron rule of not buying merch for servants I don't own when a real life Gacha machine gave me a Summer Nito pin
I should be getting my Nero Nendoroid I ordered right before the summer banner starts, so hopefully I can use that as a summoning catalyst.
Remember that time on the last summer banner where I did a total of 135 pulls and got two 4*'s?
That was fun.
...please, dear god, be a little kinder to me this summer.
And how the caster oni had resistance to quick AKA Rider Kintoki? Yes, yes you can. It's so aggravating and 3m takes so much fucking longer than Rashomon because of this shit.
...Are the oni weak to Gil?

His NP should do ridiculous damage here.
