ASK ME ABOUT KISSING A GHOST

And you get about two of those a day per alt. So you are looking at 80 minutes each day if you're just doing routine grinding.

Well if finding an hour+ per day to game (on a mobile, too) is too inconvenient then yes it might not be a good idea to run dual accounts. But nobody said you have to maintain perfect AP efficiency anyway.

I mean, it's not like farming in FGO is complex or anything, especially with all the resources aka Kaleidoscope Raikous that JPN has. It's extremely easy to play while doing other stuff, so it's not like I'm dropping everything just to play this silly mobile game.

and now I am conflicted between having Abigail wearing the cute dress or actually having a good NP animation

Haven't made it to the next episode yet. Despite all the usual Fate nonsense I'm accustomed to, the monkey finger bullets and robot-octopus attachments have really killed a lot of the enthusiasm I may have had for this particular series. A shame because Mordred seems like a fun character and I want to know more about Samiramis.

Shishio's stupid necromancer weapons are like one of the few good things of the first half of Apocrypha.

the problem with fate/apocrypha isnt that some of the masters have goofy fighting styles. that wouldnt even crack a top 100 of fate/apocrypha's problems.

It's way too busy w/ the spikes and the dragon cape clamp thing looks really dumb. Doesn't help that it can be compared to the very classy Zerker Vlad.

I think the messiness is as least partly intentional? Zerker Vlad is supposed to be the dude envisioned as the ruler and defender of Romania while Lancer Vlad is the image the rest of the world has about that dude who really really loved poking things.

So my brother is laid up and can't work for about a month due to a work related injury. So like anyone else he's binging anime and video games.
He decided to give this "Fate" nonsense I've been telling him about for years a shot.
He watched Apocrypha first.

"Santa brings gifts. She does not bring happiness."

That's the kind of one-liner I would expect to see at the end of a holidays action flick about Santa Claus taking the law into his own hands.

I've been pretty lax about about doing the class dailies so far and this event has been great for getting my servant's skills to non-shameful levels. Had plenty of red and golden gems, but now that I have enough blue gems as well I can start using stupid amounts of QP and rare materials to level my main servant's skills :toot:

Did Abigail already have her turn in the banner spotlight and now it's just Sheba first and then her second?
Wondering if I should wait until they focus on her again.

Got Abigail on my alt right away. This'll be fun!

My trick for not getting bored is that I only grind on my alt when I hit a wall. That way I get to have much harder boss battles!

They're both on rate-up until the 20th. Sheba's a 4 star so it's not like she'll interfere with trying to pull Abigail.

I wish that was the case, NP5 Sheba so far with around 320 quartz.
Quite sure that if I end up buying quartz, I'll just end up with more copies of her.

EDIT: Does it actually matter which servant is in the front or not if that makes any sense?

Robin didn't get his until the first anniversary in July. I don't think they've mentioned doing the strengthening quests early, sadly, but I'd be happy to be wrong. And yes, the evade + sure-hit + stars on top of it is very, very nice.

if there's anything this event has taught me it's that Ceaser is Real, Strong, and my Friend.

He's such a good friend that he bought my phone and then sold it back to me at 10 times the price when he saw how much I needed it. I got a great deal.

Well the weekly quests gave me enough quarts to do a single role of the gatcha. Ended up grabbing nursery rhyme.

It may not be Jack but I'm happy. Only caster I don't have now is Waver.

I'm pretty sure party order only matters in terms of who's in the active party vs. who's in reserve and there's no position in the active party that gets targeted more than others or anything like that, if that's what you're asking.

Japan tends to get 10 quartz at very regular intervals for all sorts of events, but it's hard to say if the NA version will follow suit.

Also I rolled 120 quartz for Abbie and got... Mordred #2. Well Mo-san is a good Saber and I won't complain about NP2, but.
