Fate/Grand Order (Smartphone)

[IceSylph]

New SQ on JP for today:

Maid Alter + Gawain

Gawain:
Skill 2: Charisma > Charisma + 1 turn sunny day.

Maid Alter:
Skill 2: Same shit, but with 5 turn max HP boost.

Maid Alter's is beyond underwhelming, and it should be removed and given to a different rider. What Maid Alter needs is a revamp on her third skill, or an NP upgrade, not more defensive shit.

[Icarian]

Damn, my King Hassan soloed Gugalanna's last HP bar (850k), the man just rips riders apart and survives forever, he has an insane NP gain to boot.

[IceSylph]

I actually lost against the bull twice. First try is fine, I attempted a Jack "solo." Got the bull down half way into the second bar. I guess this is why I've seen literally 0 Jack solos for the bull on youtube. She just can't keep up due to lack of defense/offensive/last stand buffs.

Second try, I did something like: Scathach, Waver, Jack, Mash, Stheno (ATK+!!!!), Cu Alter. This one almost won, but failed with ~300k HP left. Probably could have won, but needed a different mystic code than what I had on.

Third try won.
Scathach (Kscope)
Waver (FP+75)
Jack (Sumo)
Mash (Prisma Cosmos)
Carmilla (Sweet Orangette: I used the wrong CE. Wanted to use Jalter Xmas CE)
KH (Friend, Icarian, thanks for the trash CE lol).
MC: Default

Hassan came out on turn ~16 or so, and won at turn 22. Jack died at like 20. KH's skillset seems literally made for this fight <,<

[Katlan]

I did:

Scath (Kaliedascope)
Mash (imaginary elements)
Friend NP5 King Hassan (literally solid the entire thing for me) with golden sumo
Cleo NP2 (sumo)
Nobu Zerker NP2 (hydro what-call-it that gives free 3 hits against you)
Herc (bond CE)

I used the hogwarts codex by accident also.

Scath one shot NP Ishtar at the start. King Hassan NPd shortly after took out the first bar. Mash died shortly afterwards and cleo and King Hassan did a ton of Dmg since they are both extremely hard to kill. Bull was down to like 100k hp and king Hassan, Cleo, and Herc were almost dead. It was either I’d survive one more round to kill it or it would kill me so I just used a single CS to allow Hassan to NP one more time for the kill.

So I got carried by my friends king Hassan. I meant to use Atlas codex but wasn’t paying attention which would of made a huge difference for the fight. I also wanted to try it with Jack but her her quick buff being tied to her evade I knew would kill her survivability

[Icarian]

I used the standard Jalter and Merlin x2 on the front line, then King Hassan (lv100, NP2) and Mash + Andersen

Killed Ishtar on turn 2 then Gulaganna proceeded to melt my Merlins in a few turns, Jeanne followed right after killing the second bar. Mash survived a few turns, Andersen used his NP and died the next turn, KH survived for 8ish turns by himself and still no sign of him dying, he was by himself practically the whole last HP break. Didn't have to use Command Seals this time.

KH (Friend, Icarian, thanks for the trash CE lol).

He had an Event CE, switched it to a lvl 98 Golden Sumo and he started being my most used support lol.

EDIT: Completely expected to pop up sooner or later.

Yeah, theres a lot of solos of him. I did a solo with him last year on JP since my account was still new. Solos are really fun in this game. KH also does his best while solo too, lol.

Spoiler: show

It's also the only fight in the game where I wouldn't mind having him natively. I don't think he's that good outside of this fight.

https://twitter.com/upaupamimi/statu...66619543298049 -- Fou kicks him in the head.
NP: https://twitter.com/appmediafgo/stat...66130424573953


I threw 10 tickets on banner 1 to get jump started, only got a 3* CE. I'll be waiting until Sunday for Merlin. Assuming Merlin goes well, then banner 2 for as many copies of Melitilith as possible. I have 1033 SQ and 959 fragments (137SQ). Please be gentle.

When this banner comes to NA, this will be by far my most desired summer <,<

[Icarian]

If that's Lancer Artoria from Camelot I know which banner I'm saving for.

[Katlan]

Hokusai's NP is so gorgeous but Osakabehime has to be one of the most fun NP animations in the game. Carmilla's is lazy, which is sad as I really like her.

Spoiler: show

I'm going to laugh so hard if Okita doesn't get a swimsuit after they showed her in one.

Lartoria Alter looks to be almost guaranteed given she is in the promo art and the currency for the in game coin.

All this means is my wallet is going to be dead in 2 years with Mushashi, Lartoria (maybe), Okita, and Melt. Melt with the penguin outfit is adorable +10.

I can see Okita being an assassin or a foreigner with those thruster.

[IceSylph]

Got Merlin on JP. 20 tickets and 60SQ. Complete opposite of NA, where I did 1000SQ and like 50 tickets and whiffed. Banner 2 funds still in tact!

[IceSylph]

JP Banner 2 came out. Had to use a sizable amount of SQ for Melt. 270SQ when Okita and Melt were on rateup. Wanted atleast 1 Okita for collection, stopped when she showed up. 150SQ on Melt's solo rateup. Original plan was NP3 Melt, but 420SQ is pretty deep for a banner, so if anything, I'll try for more copies next year.

Now back to saving for Skadi or Tamacaster rateup.

	• SQ: 420
		• 4* Lakshmibai (60SQ)
		• 4* Okita (270SQ)
		• 4* Meltililith: 2 (330SQ, 420SQ)
		• 5* Artoria: 1 (330SQ)
		• 3* CE: 13
		• 4* CE: 8
		• 5* CE: 3
		• 5* CE Basking Under the Sun
		• 5* CE Another Ending
		• 5* CE Volumen

[Katlan]

Nice pulls! 400 SQ for NP2 melt and bunnyatoria is worth it.

When is NA getting the storage upgrade! Need it so badly

[Katlan]

It is that time of year again folks: August 29, 2019

https://fate-go.us/nero_fest2019/

I am leaving out of town on August 28, 2019 and won't be back until the 2nd. Gonna be rough super grinding during that period of time.

Finally. Since summer ended it's been dead. Just been doing gem/exp dailies, which I both don't really need >.>

[Katlan]

None of the revival CQs stood up against a year of progression and Merlin, etc. they were all super easy and the only real challenge was the Hassan one since you needed an akamasu or Debuff stripper who are still rare

Medea 3* demolishes that one, just takes a whiie.

6 new interludes on JP:

Ishtar
Tesla
Enkidu
Amakusa
Jack
Parvati

Ishtar, Tesla and Enkidu get upgrades. Most important, my one true waifu, Ishtar, gets the upgrade she deserves.

Tesla:

Skill 1: Increase party NP gen by 30% for 3 turns (excludes himself)

Enkidu:

NP Upgrade: 800%-1200%: 30% DEF Down. 200% Extra damage to Threat to Humanity

Saving the best for last, Ishtar <3

NP Upgrade: 400%-600%: Drops 20 Crit Stars

Extremely happy with Ishtar. All I wanted for her was an NP upgrade. Tesla's is fine, but kinda whatever in grand scheme. Enkidu's is very good, just because more damage. Threat to Humanity is useless, but it's lore fluff. The only threats are the foreigners and BB, none of which you use Enkidu for.

The others are just SQ interludes.

[Icarian]

Lartoria NP Interlude: Never.

[arus2001]

Yeah, I'll remain forever sad about how shitty her NP is compared to 4* Alter version.

Wait for Lostbelt 6.

Spoiler: show

LB6 takes place in an alternate Camelot, and we know a version of Artoria is in it. She may get buffed to align with that.
