I've now defeated Altera with only Tawara Touta left standing. Rice is good civilization. Having access to Servants that weren't released yet during those chapters is fun too. Hozoin is hilariously good.

BlondRobin posted:As someone who is playing the Japanese side it’d be nice if I could follow this thread without getting spoiled on things the day they come out, honestly. I couldn’t immediately finish Salem because of time constraints, but the first time I opened the thread that it was all ‘Let’s talk about the Salem plot and mechanics without any spoiler tags ha ha hope you don’t have a life outside playing FGO’ imho nothing that was talked about here actually 'spoils' Salem as a well-written and emotionally rewarding story. like i get that tagging is quick and simple and I'll respect that but only bare plot elements appeared outside of black boxes and I don't see what about just vaguely knowing an event occurs or someone/something appears, with zero context involved, is going to be detrimental to the experience. it's the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. the larger fgo community is full of people who love to crowd around the new poo poo and hype it up. everyone's always going nuts over the latest leaks/datamines. risk aversion runs both ways here. i think if i treasured the totally blind experience of a singularity i'd be like, "hey, the fgo thread on SA has 100 new shitposts, but the rest of Salem just unlocked and I'm real excited to finish it when I have time tomorrow so maybe the shitposts can wait a day."

Goon 1: "Hey, you going to see that King Kong remake?" Goon 2: "What's the point? Everyone knows he dies at the end." Goon 3: "Actually if you exclude that there's still the other 200 minutes of runtime—it's a nuanced story and the impact of the ending is shaped by the actions of the characters up to that point and the emotions that led them there. that's why the word 'protagonist' contains the Greek word 'agon', which means 'struggle'." Goon 2: "Wasn't this conversation already a penny arcade comic? gently caress off man."

RIP pubbie I sold my JP FGO account to. He didn't tell me that he had been sending his own jp support mails while he begged me to, and as far as I can tell the FGO support staff got suspicious and went "gently caress both of these guys"  お問い合わせいただきましたデータ復旧のご依頼につきまして調査・確認を行いましたところ、 弊社規定の復旧基準に満たないため、データ復旧の対応はいたしかねます。 なお、データの復旧に関する詳細な基準などは、個別に公表いたしておりません。

This raffle box sure as hell beats wyvern island for fangs. I'm close to getting enough for Saber Lily for when Saber Wars shows up and Drake's third ascension.

Nate RFB posted:Probably super early to be thinking of Saber Wars, but my initial gameplay was to put most of my resources into Okita and Saber Alter with as many attack-boosting CEs from the event. I wonder how much Saber Lily would really be able to contribute even at 80 and NP5, I assume most people are going to shove her into their back rows and user MHX as a support since she's basically tailor made for annihilating the bosses of that event. I'm not sure exactly how the attack boosts stack in this case, but I would assume +100% attack is enough to make her relevant when most people will have +60% at best on their other servants.

Can I just say it's hilarious that Saber herself is apparently like tier 3 in saber power? She's not even part of the rateup. Nero is the new original I guess.

The math on this is probably wrong, but at least as a waveclear a maxed Lily might be better than Alter it seems at NP5:code:Nate RFB fucked around with this message at 14:51 on Dec 5, 2017 |

I've been meaning to level Lily for Saber Wars way earlier than this. The problem was that Medea, Robin, Elizabeth, Drake, Martha and Artoria came to me begging for fangs.

My Lily is currently at 80 so maybe I'll break her out for a wave clear team and give Altera a break. Unrelated, I threw a summon ticket into the event banner on a whim. No Jack, but I got my third Marie from this single banner. Viva la France because holy poo poo does this game want me to use Marie all of a sudden.

She was my only saberface for a long time. And since Jeanne is the only other one I have until the event ends I'm pretty sure its staying that way. Hopefully Saber Wars changes that and I can get Umu and Salter.

I was already leveling up Medea Lily for no reason, but all this talk of Saber Wars made me realize I should probably focus on Saber first. Just feeding her random brown exp cards from dailies and occasionally silver cards to free up space should be enough to get her to level 50 or so without any real effort.

I leveled Saber Lilly to 70, got her max ascension and fed her all my fous because I didn't have any other saber. Shortly after I ended up rolling Artoria and Salter so she's been sitting untouched since a few weeks before Okeanos was announced. At least saber wars means all those resources i dumped into her won't have been a waste

It's why it's kind of a big deal whenever one of the main grinding nodes of an event has demons as an enemy. Saber Wars has 19 of 'em, btw.
