    I can't get a drop either, seems to be super rare.

    Beat today's challenge, took me three tries but I didn't use any command seal, my only damage dealer was an NP5 Emiya support, I had Mash David and Tristan keep him as long as possible.

    I've yet to do yesterdays challenge, but with no healers/buff removal (Tristan is lvl 40 and is gonna stay at that level for a while, he also wants medals ) I'll just die to doom.

    Yeah the only way to do the hassan challenge is with specific group make ups. You need a healer (even Illsavel is fine) and some buff removal.


    And getting the Petal MLB is super rare. I have 5 so I can MLB it. But I'm not doing so until I have more

    Yeah, I could MLB mine, too, but holding off because they insist on this idiocy of MLB currency CEs only being +2 instead of +5 to compensate for losses of individuals.

    And only a preliminary run through of the new stages, but these feel kinda worse for everything but petals.

    I'm missing something here? Why is everyone going bonkers for petals? Isn't the limit 7 resets? I'm on the last one and basically got 80% of my petals farming medals.

    There are more after, you just have to full clear and there aren't any more CEs or crystallized lore.

    Main draw for me is the silver medals, with stuff like EXP and QP as side benefits.

    Yeah, these are the events that you want to spam refresh on. I'm at box 17 or 18. I'll probably stop at 32 or so, since that will give me enough knight medals to fully max out Saberlot and Lartoria.

    This one is good, but Christmas is even better, since boxes have skill gems in them. Christmas is the one to really go in on because of this. Also bones. Christmas I'm hoping to do well above 50 boxes.

    On box 23, aiming for 50+ if possible

    Team I 3/4(sometimes) turn for petals. Will replace bond+ ce once I get another ce drop.



    1. Nuke with arash
    2. Use all of waver skills->switch to other waver and do the same
    3. 3rd skill fran, 3rd skill lancer alter
    4. attack first with alter if there is a buster or quick cards etc aoe w/ BLASTED TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
    5. aoe with alter on final wave, shit alter can 1 shot arjuna with a 300k+ crit sometimes w/ a buster


    I tried doing the same setup with titoria but np1 really hurts it badly even with the dmg ce.

    JP luck really turning around. Yesterday used 7 tickets to try for Raikou and/or Munenori, but whiffed and off bannered a Chiron. Which is fine. Chiron is amazing in both gameplay, and also in Apocrypha. He's a bro all around, and liked his dynamic with best grill Fiore.

    Then did 2 multis today for some CE's for Gilfest, and got...



    YOROKOBE, ZASSHU.

    JP now has Gilgamesh, Chiron, Atalante and Shitjuna. Think I'm set on archers for both AoE and single target now. Now just missing a lancer. Stuck with NP3 Cu, because the game refuses to give me more of him >.>

    Finished the final trial on my first try, using one command spell. Thank god i have a friend with akamatsu (who had white rose MLB on). I don't think I could of done it without him as he has been nothing short of OP for all of these challenges

    I did waver, Umu Brude, Akamatsu (support), squirtoria (first reserve w/MLB white rose), Mash, Herc w/bond CE.

    I'm guessing by Akamatsu you mean Amakusa (Ruler with white hair)?

    It took me two attempts, first one to test the waters a bit, decided to brute force it since I don't have any means to stall the fight, specially with them firing NPs. Went with Jalter, Drake (meant to be Lartoria, I wasn't able to fire her NP at all in fear of killing Medea) support Jalter, Gil, Mash, and in the last spot Herc, but didn't need it. Used two Command spells. Kill order was Jack > Amakusa > Lalter > Nero > Ozzy > Medea.

    I've yet to do the assassin one :<

    The F/GO panel ended at that convention. Wasn't a stream or anything, but from people who went, they said nothing exciting. It was more of a Q+A with Albert (main NA localization guy). Mentioned that:
    There weren't any specific announcements, it was more of a Q&A with Albert also describing in more detail what it is he does. He did bring up how knowing everything in advance makes it difficult for major content updates.

    However, in about 2 months, get ready for our clairvoyance EX to drop by about 2 ranks. No specifics, but that alone is pretty exciting to me.

    I don't know what they can really change, besides the order of some minor events, but the events are generally tied to "time periods" in the story, if that makes sense. Like final singularity takes place at the end of December for example.

    I doubt they'd create brand new events specifically for NA. Most I see is them just re-arranging banners that don't belong to events.

    inb4 double SSR Merlin banner.

    EDIT: No announcement of Chaldea Lunchtime or Jalter (7m Download Campaign) banner at all.

    Did the assassin challenge without using command seals, over 70 turns, that was the longest fight I've done so far by a long shot, took almost an hour.

    Probably took me about 20m. Would've been faster if Medea didn't one-shot the first Hassan with her NP. Whoops. Wound having to jigger Guts chars around the rest alongside Tamamo NPs to avoid deaths. Also didn't help the Amakusa I loaned wasn't full MLB on the damage CE.

    I managed to make Tristan live long enough to erase the debuffs to all but the last Hassan, then he got killed in a single turn by 3 assassins criting on him (he's only lvl 63), the rest of the encounter was Mash, Andersen and support Tamamo... but I forgot to put a CE on Mash, so it slowed down to a crawl.

    I also stopped opening boxes, but for another reason, I have no space to hold all those gold EXP cards.
