Maybe it's the nature of each event in FGO being so unique, but it still blows my mind how they can take 5 hours of maintenance and need to extend it indefinitely when most other games implement new events on the fly with no downtime. It's a good thing FGO is so generous with their maintenance gifts.

Any programmers can shed some light on the app/event update process, I'm curious.

What are her skills?

...She's behind me, isn't she?


Reddit says her skills are:

1) NP charge and if 50% HP or less gain NP gen up (3 turns)
2) Attack up (3 turns) Defense up (3 turns) and ignore classes (3 turns)
3) Ally Guts (1 time, 3 turns) and def up (3 turns)

I can't read Japanese, so I'll take their word for it :v:

Edit: After using it, her 3rd skill appears to give ATK up and not defense up.

Just spent 300 quartz on the summer gacha and didn't get a single servant above 3*, or any copies of the 3* I haven't maxed yet. Man I've never felt so crushed by a video game. I'm glad I don't put any money in this, it would be heartbreaking.

There is, it's just not all that much talked and behind a paywall to keep dirty peasants away.
I would bet most of the assholes showing off their maxed out bonds and such have used it since I doubt administration cares all that much since it's pretty much a single player thing.

Behind a paywall? That's kinda not right.
Though if anybody *does* have it i want it, mostly just for ease of life.

I'm not a fan of Nero at all, but Nobu and Nito were too strong for me to resist.

First ten roll, 9 silvers and Swimsuit Nero. I know it's not kosher to complain about a 5* but oh my god I would have been happy with literally anyone except her.

So I blew the rest of my 300 Quartz I've saved up over a year.

100 rolls, and all I have to show for it are the event CEs and a Servant I absolutely despise.

The desire sensor is real, and it hates us.

She was decent in Extra, but Extella and Rome especially has turned her into a perfect woman who can do no wrong who everyone loves when her shtick in Extra was dealing with the fact that she died unloved and went down vilified in history due to her more selfish actions like the theater debacle.

It gets a bit ridiculous when Mash is comparing Nero's purity and brilliance positively to Joan of Arc of all women.

Also Tamamo is the superior waifu and superior 5* swimsuit jackpot.

So is Da Vinci, Boudica, and literally every antagonist in Rome. Stheno just decides out of nowhere that'd she'd class change into Rider if Nero had been male, for example.

I didn't play Fate/Extra or Extella, so Septem was my first exposure to Nero and I considered her completely insufferable.

Her whole rationale why she is better than United Roman Empire is basically "I should be the sole emperor of Rome because I really want be the sole emperor of Rome!" and everyone reaction to that is basically "the reason you should be the sole Emperor of Rome is because you really want to be the sole Emperor of Rome? Wow such a deep and beautiful motivation, you are truly the one who should be the Emperor! Which is doubly hilarious when you consider historical Nero's track record and the fact that she is going against loving Caesar, Romulus and Alexander the Great. (ok, I guess she was better than Caligula?)

The only redeeming parts of Septem were Stheno's random wacky island and Jing-Ke, whose sole motivation was "I came here to assassinate emperors and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum". :black101:

Playing this summer event as my first event on JP is such a weird contrast to Nero Fest. Even if the shop costs are slightly higher it feels bizarre to be getting around ~50 of the gold event currency from running a 10AP mission.
