Board 8 > Fate/Grand Order Topic 9: Mystic Eyes and Knives

(+) Yeah! (+)

This banner is s big nothing for me, might have been better if nightingales art wasnt so bad
---

Yeah, waiting for Jeanne Alter for sure. The quartz gifts were nice

Quartz gifts + quartz from the story chapters. Enough for an additional 10-pull for a banner of your choice.

(Which is probably the Jalter banner, let's be real)
---

you guys can enjoy your jalters, I'm fine with my 5* avenger
---

I was thinking about pulling but Nightingale's art was the tipping point

not a Jalter guy either so I'm not sure where my SQ is gonna go after my nothing pull on the London banner
---

fear not young Bombadil for Cu Alter is right around the corner
---

There are so many Cus. Not as many as Artoria, but it feels like hes the male version unless somebody else has even more clones than him.

There are 3 Emiyas and 3 Gilgamesh as well at least, though they aren't out in NA yet.
---

Cu has the original, Proto, Alter, Caster and as far as Im concerned Diarmuid who looks similar enough to count.

Speaking of Gilgamesh I got the kid one from a friend summon along with another Diarmuid and Medea

counting Diarmuid is silly

so discounting that it's 4 to 3 to 3. Proto Cu is the only one that makes no sense to me, not sure what they were thinking with that one

still nowhere near the 11 Artorias(/Arthur)
---

wat

Diamuid is an entirely different character

might as well count Scathach if you're going to go that far
---

I know hes a different character. He just looks really really similar. I mean the Saberfaces are different characters too...

Oh boy, animation and battle dialogue updates for Mash as soon as you start America. Our beloved kohai is growing up so fast.~ (Can't wait for her huge upgrade next chapter!)
---

There's no such thing as a Diamuidface though. They really don't look very alike at all.
---

They have the same hairline and pretty similar faces. Like he might as well be the Jeanne of Cu lookalikes because he definitely looks like he could very easily pass as Cus brother at least. The anime images I saw of both just make them look even more alike...

Proto cu is from fate prototype.

ah that makes more sense

Copying my post from another fgo thread

Finished the singularity

My Scathach one shoted Cu Alter like three times in a row, kind of cool but at the same time was ehhh not too tough.

Some cool moments against the demon pillers especially with Tesla jumping in.

I didn't expect to like Nightangle and Rama as much as I did, but wow. Also blew all my quartz trying to get them even though some better banners are literally so soon, but eh. Got Rama but no Nightangle.

Wish they didn't leave the story on a cliffhanger with Mash. Also kind of lol to do Artemis' interlewd right after and shes walking around...
---

I'm makin' good progress on London at least >_>
---

This story is such a huge step up, like wow. Apparently this is just a shadow of what's to come? I guess Camelot was good enough to get a stage play adaptation in Japan "lol."
---

Written by the author of Apocrypha, no less. It's been pretty impressive.

Might have to bring Nero Bride to the final fight against Cuzilla so she can settle the score
---

grand order in general has better story than I was expecting
---

The same guy did Orleans, which IMO was the previous best Singularity. I feel like without Sieg existing people wouldn't be nearly as negative on Apocrypha, so it could be just that single element that dragged things down.
---

Case in point: Jeanne is awful in Apocrypha and is decent in Orleans.

Having seen like 5 episodes of it, I can vouch for this.
---

Beat the latest singularity. I guess the writing actually was significantly better as hyped since I basically went straight through it which has never happened.

3 more grails and I can actually give them to someone else.

Random aside it kinda sucks that Mash doesn't get bond exp-- for the story I like to use Kojirou + Mash + Guest as my front row and now that Kojirou is bond level 10 that's two wasted slots for bond exp. Sucks doubly so since story missions seem to be the best source of it.
---

Story finished! If this is just a taste of what's yet to come, I'm 110% on board, that was actually a blast.

Tesla/Edison bickering is the funniest fucking thing I've seen in a game like this, that whole scene was gold.

http://fate-go.us/news/?category=NEWS&article=/iframe/2018/0322_chapter5pu2/

Medb banner incoming. I'd imagine we're getting the Cu Alter + Edison banner next week to keep them together.

This also lets them announce Jalter + Fate/Zero during their SakuraCon panel on the 30th. Might be a dearth of content, but they could think the new story would suffice for a few weeks.
---

fuuuuuuuuuuuuu
---

Too bad Sita isnt a Servant you can summon. Beowulf is pretty cool though and Id be happy to pull him

this is a good thing, since I'm moving on the 31st

don't want the lottery starting in the middle of that
---

fucking garbage

why is the american team for the game such a piece of shit
---

Wow I think thats the most upset Ive ever seen Mac get

Was Jalter supposed to come sooner or something why is there outrage
---

In JP, the Da Vinci event and Jalter banner came 11 days after the America chapter was released.

With the Medb banner coming this week, that looks unlikely. America also has a third banner that has Cu Alter and Edison on it, so we're probably getting that banner next week.
---

Also all this blank space for no reason. Why did we even have that Singularity Banner for a week before America? Utterly pointless. Could've just moved America a week earlier.

Mainly I want to roll for both Jalter and Helena, and with the JP schedule, the two banners overlapped so I could roll for one then the other. Now it looks like that won't be an option.
---

Localization team is literally three people so I think they're doing a pretty good job lol
---

At least if it's in April, that's another 5 tickets that will be available.
---

I heard that for this first april fool's event, there would be no funny version of Jeanne Alter if NA copied JP's first event so perhaps they are stalling her until after that happens.
---

Nope. Event was supposed to span the first couple days of April, so we would've gotten those tickets anyway.
---

London's fun
---

Interesting. Most people consider it to be either the worst or second worst singularity.
---

It's kinda a letdown after Okeanos and has a few people popping up outta nowhere. Better than Septem, though that's not a high bar.

Medb banner is up for those rolling for the Queen of Thots.
---

Passing on Medb, prepping for Iskandar. I'll have about 120 quartz ready for him... this stretch has been really rough on my stock. D:

After Iskandar I'm pretty much all clear until the summer though, so I should be able to get a nice pile by then at least.
---

I'll probably try one multisummon for Edison or Cu Alter, then save the rest for Jeanne
---

Was planning on rolling for Medb with my spare Quartz from Jalter and Helena, but that seemingly won't be an option now ;_;
---

Yeah game has been feeling quiet for some time now.
---

I'm working through America slowly because of my upcoming move so it's not that big of a deal for me.
---

at least you're in america
---

I actually really like that this game is not demanding with my time. I can go for days without playing it, just collecting the login bonus. And then I can get a lot of play out of my system at once when there's actually content worth farming in play because of the abundance of apples.

It's nice to have a mobile game that isn't needy. Kinda the same reason I've stuck with Fire Emblem Heroes.

Also technically I still have a ton of content I CAN do with all the free quest and interlude quartz on the table, but there's no rush to do it.
