Nate RFB posted:I would strongly caution against grinding specifically to get a CE to drop. This is not a Halloween Princess situation. If you have to make sacrifices in what you buy in the shop then do so though. To clarify, i need to grind the 20AP at some point to grab octuplet crystals and the golden skull. Not planning on grinding for craft essences, just wondering if it had a chance to drop in the 20AP.

I've gotten two GUDA-O drops so far, one from Artoria and the other from Caesar in the new 40AP quest. Anecdotally the drop rate for the CE feels much higher though I still wouldn't go out of my way to farm for it to drop.

Just did a 10 pull out of weakness and got two Poster Girls. Considering you need something like 2900 of that currency to buy out the good stuff, it seems worth it.

Turned into Captain Ahab this event - almost 900 quartz but no Okita. Did get Emiya to NP5 and a dozen Poster girls, though. I just wanted a Saber beyond the free Lily we got

Also did a 10 pull, hoping to get a Poster Girl and got Emiya, my first Kaleidoscope and the 4* event CE. I'm pretty ok with that. I'm doing no more pulls on this banner so it looks like I won't get everything from the event store, but whatever.

I'm spending apples to rush the skulls/ce's and then I'll probably wait until the rest of the nodes unlock before spending more apples.

If I'm already at the point where I'm grinding the 40 AP quests, is there really any reason to buy any more of the event CEs? I figured I could just get skulls then work on the ascension items.

Fed some hearts to Tamamo to max-ascend her and all this grinding for crap was worth it after all. Anyway, yeah i think i'm just going to focus on getting what i want for the characters i like the most and anything beyond that will just be a cool bonus.

Shipon posted:Turned into Captain Ahab this event - almost 900 quartz but no Okita. Did get Emiya to NP5 and a dozen Poster girls, though.   Lack of a good Saber plus really wanting Okita meant I've gone through around 700 quartz this event, but nope. Hell, until the second to last pull I didn't even draw ANY 5* Servant, where I finally pulled Altera. Given one should be averaging one 5* around every 300 quartz spent, not terribly amused. Actually drawing a passable Saber does kind of make it hard to justify any more this event though - or in the near future. Only 5 Poster Girls here, though now have a total of 3 Prisma Cosmos as well. Lord Koth fucked around with this message at 03:03 on Nov 11, 2017 |

Well, my weekly ticket came in, so I threw it at the Gatcha, because why not? Out popped a poster girl, the first I got. I feel a fair bit better about clearing the shop now. Threw it on my Emiya in support, since the best grind right now is all Sabers.

And this is why I'm glad I was able to slap down my lizard brain after that easy pull, instead of listening when it whispered, "hey, if it was that easy why don't you pull some more and get her to NP5?" All the same, I am sorry for your misfortune.

All the skulls are mine and Nobu is at ascension 3. Oh my this third skill looks nice. I always thought she needed more crit star gain. Now I need 1,500 Blue things and about 1800 pots to clear out the ascension mats and a bunch of jars to clean out the EXP and Fous for Nobu and Okita.

Honestly, Launch Order is a fairly decent 4* CE for a number of Servants. When maxed it's a 15% boost to Buster and Quick cards, which is honestly better than the 20% to just one that the related 4* ones get at max. Or at least that's what I tell myself given just how many I've been drowned in from pulls.

The entire reason he was able to smash the invincible Takeda Cavalry was because he realized well-trained, volley-firing arquebusiers could annihilate a cavalry charge. This is, in fact, Nobu's Noble Phantasm - it is a recreation of the three thousand guns in three line formation that brought down the Takeda Cavalry. While the near-mythology of it nowadays has the cavalry being straight up mowed down by gunfire, even the most reliable historical accounts paint it as a goddamn massacre, at somewhere between 66%-75% fatalities to the Takeda side. Nobunaga is forever associated with bringing guns into Japanese warfare and changing the way Japan fought forever, for good or ill. Therefore, Nobu is strongly associated with guns and could only ever possibly be an Archer.

Nobunaga sarcastically self-proclaimed himself to be the "Demon King of the Sixth Heaven" because of his all-consuming ambition to rule a united japan and fixation on worldly goals and being kind of a lovely buddhist in general. That, combined with a reputation for brutality on the battlefield and a history of killing monks (Who may or may not have deserved it. The situation of the warrior monks in ancient japan was weird, and in a lot of cases the temple-fortress would claim dominion over a chunk of the nation same as a samurai lord in his castle would) and having two big incidences of temples in flames (One where he died, and one where he burned down a mountain because of a REALLY GOOD temple fortress and ordered his men to kill anyone escaping the fire, man woman or child)... Essentially all that lead to him being literally demonized in later stories, hence the fiery, hellish powers and him qualifying for 'Berserker' class because of said brutality. The guitar is mostly because Nobu thinks it's cool, though, I think.

Not really worth the effort though because you would only end the event with more CE and maybe a bit more QP, but this event doesn't repeat next year i think.

I probably should have paid more attention to what Okita needed for ascension prior to the event, just in case, but there's no way that wouldn't have jinxed it. Artoria certainly did not need those Halloween dragon fangs comparatively. I'm 8 fangs short and I don't see any reasonable way of hitting that unless I want to spend a ton of apples on Wyvern Island.
