Maybe. But I'm very simple and having a big man hit things with a stick is very simple.

For example bosses will start eventually to have insanely high numbers of HP, like in the millions. Herc can hit super hard but you'll likely lose him before he can chew through that much HP, even with all his defensive skills and Bond CE.

Endorph posted:Alignment in the Fateverse isn't about what you are, but how you perceive yourself. Atalante sees herself as distinctly apart from humans and has no real interest in preserving human lives. Gilgamesh is a way worse person than Atalante, but he sees his actions as heroic and intends them for the good of humanity, so he's chaotic good. I'm really curious where you're getting that from, because it fits way too well and I want to know that its confirmed somewhere.

LibrarianCroaker posted:Making low rarity CE XP bombs is about QP efficiency. poo poo gets expensive. explanation 1). Take a 1* CE. Include four copies of the 1* CE, four 2* CE of any type, and 1 3* CE. This will fully LB it and get it to level 11-15. You can also do four 1* CE and three 3* CE. 2). Accumulate twenty one of those from step 1, pick the lowest level one (probably something at level 11), and feed the other twenty to it. 3). Rinse and repeat steps 1-2 (always including the mini-bomb you made at the end of step 2) until you have a 1* CE close to their level cap. I swear I've seen twenty million different takes on this process. It's weirdly the most complicated part of FGO's meta that I still can't wrap my head around, several months into playing.

Argas posted:Son, you ain't seen lovely rolls yet. A good example of a lovely roll is 8 3* craft essences (1-4 of those being Black Keys or Shinji), a crummy 3* servant like Boudica or Romulus, and your 4* being another CE you already own, most likely a debuff resist.

And finished Okeanos. I liked it even more now that I had more than summaries and basic knowledge of the kanas. Now to do all the unlocked Interludes. I think I'm gonna switch Emiya for David in my main team, because David's Bond CE sounds fun. Edit: Ushiwakamaru with her upgraded NP is godly against the end-of-Singularity Boss, fyi.

The game's been crashing randomly a lot on my phone, about once per battle now, sometimes even outside of battle. Is this related to a known issue or is there an obvious cause or is my phone just garbage and I need a new one?

I don't know how much of a difference it makes, but I've been using SD Maid on a schedule to clean up excess junk and Greenify to hibernate most apps when I shut down my tablet. But I also don't use my tablet for basically anything other than FGO. Even so I still probably get a crash every other day; luckily it has not been a consistent/repeatable issue.

BlondRobin posted:Rider Carribean Freebird is a Quick card, so that makes that a difficult proposition. On the other hand, I've heard that chain colors and associated bonuses don't affect noble phantasms the way they do normal cards. So NPs don't get damage advantages or extra arts/stars for leading buster, arts or quick cards. Yo, here's your source. I can't really prove it to you unless I started posting code disassemblies and nobody wants that, but trust me my info is legit. Anyways, NPs are equivalent to the first card in a chain for purposes of damage multiplier, NP generation and star generation. They do confer first card bonus. Hence, unless you're chaining 3 NPs, it's best to have'em act as the first card. http://blogs.nrvnqsr.com/blog.php/1056-Mining-for-Bits has the rest of my stuff. NRVNQSR posted:There are one or two edge cases they're a little hazy on, though, and "do NPs get the bonus damage from a buster chain" is one of them. I think the answer's no, but it could go either way. I think the answer is yes but the extra damage is hard to test unless you're NPing an enemy with crazy high Def + Special Def. Those crabs from the challenge quest a few months ago would've been good for testing. Miles Vorkosigan posted:OK, but while we are on the subject could someone explain why Fate uses the Dungeons and Dragons alignment system in the first place? Nasu loves tabletop. Also FSN was first based in some mysterious homebrew system of his. Nate RFB posted:The conversation I got on reddit, which is similar to the process in that image but slightly different: Just keep cycling high-level low-rarity CEs into fresh new low-rarity CEs so you keep the QP costs low (remember to include some dupes so you don't hit cap and waste XP). The rest is just fluff. Once you have a card that wants all that XP just toss it there and watch as it goes from lv. 1 to lv. N at lv. 1 costs.

I recall my kinoki can only do decent 4 digit Damage on the crab from a buster chain for each card. Other cards chain would do like 2 or 3 digit.

This has been happening to me as well, on both my couple month old tablet and my brand new phone. Didn't happen much until this last week or so. SD Maid is awesome, and I'd recommend it highly. It hasn't solved the problem by any means, but it saved a lot of space and cleaned up a great deal of redundant files on my old tablet and old phone.

I've had periodic slowdown since release and downloading all data has done nothing. It gets so bad at times that I have to restart the game but at least it resumes were you left off.

I've also had some slowdown to the point of crashing after leaving the app open for several hours, plus the occasional random crash. The most notable one was one time where it crashed during a battle and trying to continue the battle after restarting resulted in the app getting stuck on the progress spinner forever, no matter how many times I restarted the app and/or phone. Eventually just had to give up on resuming and start the battle from scratch. I had been assuming it was mainly due to my phone being relatively old (iPhone 5S), but guess it's more the app. I've cleared the first singularity (Marie is pretty cool), and mostly have resisted pulling for pirates. Couldn't resist one 10-pull with free quartz, which gave me no good servants but did give me a 5* CE that starts a NP at 80%, and that got put right on Heracles.

Tae posted:Got David from the fpool. What's his niche? (only have Robin Hood so far). he gives the entire party a 1-time (not 1 turn, 1-time) evade which is incredibly good for dodging enemy NPs. It isn't really consistently team survivability like George/Leonidas/Mash or something, but it's great for gimmicks in certain boss fights. Also his NP does decent damage.
