late game stuff is about dealing with the bosses using specific gimmicks so hit good isn't the most important thing in the world but he'll still be your friend.

I'm glad I'll finally be able to get Gorgon and grail another version of best snek. It only took them literally giving her out for free for me being able to get her. :v:

Random 10 pull netted me another regular Cu Lancer, two more fat Sabers, a Martha, and an Angel's Song CE. Eh, okay. Is Caesar any good or should I just bump him for his Interlude Quartz and feed him to somebody else?

Caesar is good for a 3* Saber, but anybody is better than Saber Gilles.

Gorgon or Medusa Lily are the only correct choices. Gorgon moreso, because she is story-locked and one of the 3 non-limited Avengers.

Collect all the snakes and field a team of the entire family.

I have him too, but I've got Altera, D'eon, and Lily for now so I'm good on a decent Saber. Just wanted to know if he was worth keeping or not.

I find it curious as to if there's any reason to really keep any servants that you just straight-up don't like once you've got the ones you want. Does late-game really force you to use certain gimmicks or setups in order to come out on top or does that just make it easier? I can't see the game making a player say, "Man, I loving hate this character but I have to keep them because of [Event Boss]" or something.

Caesar brings a strong Single Target NP which no other Saber in the game actually provides right now. And the next one will be a Limited SSR in the form of Okita.

And the game is never going to be so difficult that you're forced to use a specific Servant even if you really don't like them... save perhaps the just-released Exhibition Match against King Hassan where I have no loving idea how you're supposed to do it without fielding BB or KH yourself, or just praying for the RNG not to flip against you.

If you have those 3, then you can just shelve Caesar completely.

Some Servants certainly make things easier (loving Merlin), but the only late-game gimmick that absolutely requires specific Servants to win is in Babylon, where there is a boss that takes ZERO damage from Servants with a Good alignment. Challenge bosses for events don't get you anything more than extra materials and/or a summon ticket.

if I was in his position, I would use caesar over lily's garbage rear end... if it wasn't for the fact that he takes pages and gears. :smith:

So I'm running a support Passionlip (don't have any alteregos of my own) and I'm at a loss of what else to run because i feel like it's entirely up to rng if she gets exploded instantly by turn one instant NP hit from Medb's two lackies. Managed to get all of her adds down and herself to 150k once but it really felt like targeting luck.

On the other hand, going ham on Buster Chains with full Berserker teams is one of the gimmicks used to deal with challenge quest shenanigans.

There are four 4* Servants I want from the list of non limited, but hopefully by the time NA gets that event I'll already have 3 or all of them. That's like two years down the road for us...that kind of sucks to think about actually.

There has never been an event like that before, other than in the beginning of the game with the starter 4* Servants, right?

He's a tempting choice, he'd go well with Gorgon and Angra. Then I'd only be missing Jalter and Dante for a full Avenger team...

The Kintoki Banner in JP was 4 million, in NA it was 1 mil. At this point it looks like while they may shuffle things around they will include everything in roughly the same order.

It was hilarious though that, since Fate/SN has technically never come out in America they made it a Fuyuki Singularity Banner. Unless it was that also in JP?

The 10 million banner is supposed to be a big deal in JPN so it'd be pretty amusing if it came out for a completely inconsequential 'milestone' in America down the line.
