Board 8 > Fate/Grand Order Topic 8: Saber Wars - The Last Arthur

(+) Yeah! (+)

Oh, I see. Gonna do a multi on the Jeanne and Bride rate up since Id love to have either. Wish me luck!

I hope you got them!!
---

Ended up getting 2 4* event CEs and 4* Lancer Liz.....well at least I got my first 4* Lancer even if its probably the worst 4-5* Lancer currently in the game >_>

Actually, she isn't that bad. The worst in-game was actually just released (Fionn)
---

I remember at launch she was considered one of the worst 4*s you could start with at least.

Sure is fun bringing mostly Archers for Saber rate Up only to face Bryn multiple times

Chaldea Combat Uniform Swap makes that simple enough.
---

It does if you brought any decent Sabers. I didnt that time because up until now rate up had me facing those enemies 99.99% of the time. I was unlucky enough to face Bryn and Scat that time. Bryn can still one-shot Sabers with her NP anyways though

None of the bosses have even gotten an NP off on me yet...
---

NONE of them? Really?
---

I've only seen an NP once when I came in with low NP gauge on Kojirou and Drake spammed Golden Rule. It's pretty rare otherwise.
---

You guys are crazy, I have to survive at least one NP in the final fight usually
---

I dont believe you guys never saw Jacks NP. She got 2 off on me on my best run against her because she can survive multiple Caster NPs >_>

Literally none, yes. Herc/Rhyme/Jack always take Jack down in two turns at most. You should try having two or three NPs built up for the final round.
---

I always have 3 ready by the final round. Jack can literally survive all 3 of my Caster NPs AND 2 more Rule Breakers on top of it though...

Hercs NP is hard to build without using somebody like Waver too. The bosses have a lot of HP so its not surprising if any of the 3 charge ones reach their NP. Bride Nero can literally survive Odas, Emiyas and Gilgameshs NPs even with the attack boost from Gilgs skill and the attack boost from the Code. I mean she dies the next turn, but still.

I only did the Assassin stage like 3 times (it's one of the tougher stages to do efficiently and I only had 2 Assassins to get CEs for) but Medea can rule breaker 3x pretty easily before seeing it between Gandr and other stuns (having Scathach and Jeanne and Medusa = many stuns-- not that I use Medusa's in an assassin stage)
---

Theres no issue getting 3 Rule Breakers. The issue is 3 of them doesnt kill Jack. I mean Im using a full team of event CEs so Im not making it easier for myself, but still some of the enemies in this game can survive even multiple single target NPs while being able to 1-hit KO Servants theyre weak against with their NPs. In a way it almost feels unfair sometimes because youre never gonna be doing that to enemies with an advantage over you

Yeah I'm using full CEs too. Rule Breaker can't one shot or even 3 shot but it will do well over half her life. Between normal attacks and your other NPs it should be enough

Pretty sure I ran Altera Scathach Medea for it, opened with photon ray + rule breaker, followed with brave chain rule breaker, usually able to rule breaker again turn 4 or 5 after Gae Bolg Alternative stun and/or Gandr stun

It's also possible she NPed me once and I evaded it but in general she didn't get it off. Never lost a unit to it (as opposed to Drake who wiped my front line that one time when she got it off)
---

I think Im gonna keep Mash with me on the harder ones since she can swap in and take a hit with 0 damage using 2 of her skills. I am done with Saber, Archer, Assasin and Rider coins so far. I was done with Lancer until I pulled Liz.

Assassin stage was very easy, but I have Waver so my experience is probably different than yours.
---

I've found all the stages fairly easy in terms of being able to win. It's a pretty forgiving event-- also I should have everything I want from it even being completionist with CEs well before it's over (not going for cleaning out the mana prisms it's not quite efficient enough to be must do and I should easily get Mona Lisa at this point).

Assassin stage is by far the toughest in terms of being able to efficiently win for me though. Medea being the only caster I have well leveled means normal damage most of the time.
---

Theyre pretty easy to win, but they still take long enough that I seen some NPs
---

swordz, is there a reason you're not using a Support Jack in the Assassin Daily? You should be using a strong support with the 5* CE if possible, and Jack does great damage against females with her NP.
---

I've got 105 cost so my set up for every rate up is:

Vlad with Melty - Rate up 4* with Maids - Anti-rate up support with Melty - Anti-rate up 4* with Melty - Rate up 3* with Maids - Kojiro with Rate up Chocolate

Haven't had any kind of trouble so far!

Probably because my Casters are mostly not good so anything with a type advantage helps. Figured it would be better having more stuff taking reduced damage. Unfortunately a couple Casters do literally 0 damage with their NPs though :(

I should probably start converting the All coins into chocolates or something.

Is there going to be a rate up for Berserker or Caster soon? Feel like Saber and Rider have shown up a couple times already

---

They have them all appear in different sequences to keep things from being too predictable. Last night was the last chance for Rider, for example, and Berserker only gets one day.

is the schedule
---

I hope Berserker day isnt too hard. Just a couple meteor horseshoes away from being able to ascend Altera for the last time. Havent had a single CE drop this event which doesnt really matter, but I thought one would drop by now since Ive cleared out quite a bit of the shop.

If there are ever any other events with tons of Archer enemies my Saber team is pretty nice to deal with them. Artoria/Mordred/Alter/Altera/Lily pretty good stuff. I might consider using Siegfried too even though hes kinda niche. I like him better than Caesar and Gilles at least...

you mean tons of Lancer enemies?
---

Yeah, whoops >_>

Think Im done with the Bride banner. Time to start saving everything I get for uh I dunno Jeanne Alter or something. Might cave if swimsuit Artorias or something happen first. Probably wont have much resources for more than 1-2 multis anyways unless we get a lot more before any of that stuff. Got 0 Quartz and 1 ticket lol

jalter will be in like 2 months, summer artoria will be in summer
---

Welp 2 months isnt gonna be enough time probably. No wonder this game sucks so much money out of people. Almost no such thing as down time for banners with waifus coming out left and right.

If only it were like the Korean version, where they're going so fast that the Christmas event started before Halloween finished.
---

That sounds even worse

I have almost 400 Quartz and 20 tickets

Sounds like you just need better taste in Waifus (eg not Saberfaces)
---

Saberfaces are the best waifus. The only other girl Servant Ive seen in the game so far that I want is Jack because she seems very strong. As for upcoming ones I dunno who else I would want. Maybe Shutendoji (I think that was her name?), but shes probably also in a span of time where I wont really be able to save anything

I might throw a ten roll when Tamamo pops up tonight but after that I'll be in Jeanne Alter hoarding mode.
---

I'd give Tamamo rolls if Nero Bride risk was not present.

---

I did a multisummon on the Tamamo/Nero Bride rateup, I wound up with Frankenstein and the 5* CE. I like Fran so I'd say this was nothing to complain about.
---

I have way too many 5* saberfaces

At least I pulled Waver and Scathach to offset them
---

I only have Saberfaces for 5*s. Just Okita and MHX.

I only have Lily.

Strengthening quests incoming. And a good chance we get KnK on the 8th.

Meanwhile, JP just dropped Semiramis. In two years, that'll be a sequence of Ereshkigal in Christmas, Jalter rerun in January, then Semiramis in February. Woof!
---

Ereshkigal is a bit situational, though, no? That underworld buff is pretty great though.
---

Okay, since we're getting the Valentines in JP really soon, are the pagoda tower thing end at the same time?
---

No idea, I'm mainly just following along on r/grandorder. Don't play on JP myself.

Ereshkigal - > Jalter - > Semiramis was more from a waifu aspect than a gameplay one.

Funny thing was that there was a banner that had the Fate / Extra servants to celebrate Last Encore and people immediately called bait. They weren't wrong.
