it's definitely a strange event if fgo is one of your first installments in the series and/or if you expect it to explain itself,, it's all humor that builds off type moon fandom and fateverse lore, based off gag comics that almost entirely ignore the fourth wall

and then to not understand the jokes about sengoku period on top of it leaves you out to dry, pretty much

It's fine. Everyone likes different kinds of humor. Yours just doesn't fit with Keikenchi's.

So I managed to get Okita (though it took... several draws) and I've been following the posted guide for the event, but how do you actually get this weird version of Nobunaga permanently? Just get a bunch of event points?

Yep, she'll become permanent at 100,000 event points which should only take a few days at most.

Also do the once-per-day missions for points eventually give you, not to put too fine a point on it, more points? I did the first one today and even at +270% or so I only got barely more than the basic missions.

They ramp up, yes. Every day will give more points until the last with a base of 40,000. Adding them up, I believe they collectively give a base gain of about 230,000 points.

gently caress that, if you can get here even to like 20 or 30 and slap an event CE on her you should get tons of summons. Worst case people will take her just to shove her in the last slot and still get that +100% points. Worry about her actually being useful in a fight after the event ends.

Yeah I just did it anyway and noticed I had a second GudaGuda Order so I was able to slap that on EMIYA. Never having 5* characters till recently made me have to really crunch to get everything to fit within my point limit. 85/86 with most of my characters with CEs so I think I did alright.

I'm a little bummed out that an event for new players started up only a few weeks after I started playing. I'm almost tempted to reroll to get the quartz but I'd lose 1) Caster Liz 2) Limit Broken Halloween Princess 3) Herc/Marie/Tamacat/NP2 Lancelot. I'm thinking that might be a bit too much to lose, even if I reroll to get Herc again, right? Also I'm basically at the end of Okeanos so I don't really have any story quartz left to pull either.

I already added some people from this thread, but I have some more open spots on my friends list now. Normally Jeanne is in the first spot of my setup, but I switched her out with Okita for now - switching out my grailed Saber Alter didnt feel right. Plus, at this point I think people probably have far more Jeannes than Saber Alters on their friends list :v:

The start dash campaign is not new; it was running when you started and you already got all the bonuses from it.

I literally have less than you after starting earlier. There are better times to reroll unless you really want Okita.

Party cost is actually a huge problem in this event. I can only really manage about three Poster Girl CEs with a level 1 Benkei shoved into the back. I might have to make some sacrifices when grinding the 40AP when it comes to point bonuses from Servants.

I glanced over the comics before this event, but wasn't expecting SD-Odas to actually be enemies, so that was cool. Not sure how I feel about giant SD-Odas, though.

I already spent a bunch of quartz trying and failing to get Tamamo last event, and the blood-coughing isn't enough of an endearing quirk to me, so not spending any quartz trying to get this Saber. Did use a few tickets, but got nothing interesting. No extra event CEs this time to help farming, so guess I'll be doing that off-and-on most of the time.

Are you confusing the 5AP main quests with the 1AP limited quests? Because there has only been one limited quest so far and I'm pretty sure it's not possible to get 33k points from it no matter how many bonuses you have.

Think I'm going to need to switch my party comp a bit for grinding Gold materials. Points can come once I've gotten the CEs, but to get them I need to get a lot more drops than I can with not poster girls of my own. Hope someone has an EMIYA with poster girl equipped on my friends list.

The limited 1 AP quest. It said I got 33k Honoji points, which someone said I should get close to half a million per each if my party is Okita+Nobu+filled with bonus units.
