I'm legitimately pumped about doing these interludes once I finish London. There's so much good stuff to unlock.

I look forward to unlocking the stargen buff for Hans so he has one more 80% chance to miss. :v:

Time for London to kick my teeth in.
Hektor is a cheating rear end in a top hat. Spamming his ridiculous paralysis+NP drain more than humanly possible just stunlocks your team if you aren't dealt the right cards (the card RNG hates you).
The pillars are too much trouble for me not to go triple Berserker and try to burst them down ASAP.

Finished London. I like how I kept thinking "Wow that was a cool/rough final boss fight" about three times, forgetting there were still more mission arrows left. :v: Mordred was good and I'm definitely gonna throw a 10 roll or two at trying to get her during Saber Wars.

If you're tired at 16, you are probably good to chill; that's close to enough skill gems to get level 7 for any skill on any class in the game.

After clearing the Singularity, I did a single roll on a whim. Gold orbs, Mordred popped out.

I can only assume the sheer concentration of Arturia I assembled for the penultimate battle counted as a catalyst:




And so my continues my streak of stumbling into every Saberface except Nero, despite her being the only one I've seriously chased so far.

I have gotten almost every 4* servant at this point, but Nero continues to elude me as well. At least I can get her guaranteed in .. about one and a half year (?) when we get the 4* ticket in NA, if I haven‘t gotten a Nero by then.

I have most of the 4* except the ones I really want, like Nero.

At least Nobu says Umu.

Recently maxed skilled some servants so I need to stock up and I'm jobless right now so I got nothing better to do. Hopefully I can get enough mana prisms off this to max out lunchtime and then start on the mona lisa

I just managed to limit break a Prisma Cosmos CE through dumb gacha luck. Would it be worth using it over Formalcraft for Vlad? Now that his NP will do decent dmg after the interlude maybe the dmg boost of Formalcraft is not as needed? 10% NP per turn sounds decent for him on paper given his poo poo NP gain.

He's strongest in an arts team where his gain is gonna be from vampirism and chains and such. Cosmos is fine on him but I think formalcraft is probably better.

I think formalcraft is still better on him and if you have a tamamo then give that prisma cosmos to her.

Prisma Cosmos is for support servants that you don't expect to be attacking much with such as Tamamo, Hans, etc.

Thanks, I will stick to Formalcraft then and put the Prisma Cosmos on Tamamo. After all Tamamo NP will fill Vlad's NP bar just the same. Will see how it compares to Fragments. I just love the Arts team setup so I wanted to brainstorm different CE ideas for it.

A large chunk of his NP gain comes from using his NP with stuff like formal craft. Because it hits 10 times and each hit gives him gauge based on his np gain

more damage just compounds the effectiveness of additional damage boosts. he is your dps after all

Darn it, I'm really tempted to roll for Lancer Alter once the banner changes. Not only is she a good lancer, she's story locked so is a pain in the rear end to get.

On the other hand, I really want Mysterious Heroine X and there's no way I'm putting cash into both gatchas.

Does Lancer alter get rate ups after this? I know that saber wars is my best chnce to get Mysterious Heroine X so I'm probably best off blowing all my quartz on that right?

I think almost without exception every banner servant appears multiple times, some more than others (Jeanne Alter famously has only appeared a couple of times).

Lancer Alter does, yes, with her next rate-up being the anniversary, and one or two others afterwards I believe. Meanwhile, Saber Wars is the only time MHX has appeared, so if you want her, now is literally the only chance to get her unless NA does something different.

Of servants who've been in the game for a while, MHX is by far the rarest - she's only been on her own banner, and a single 1-pull only guaranteed 5* banner.

Jalter is indeed another rare one, tied with Void Shiki in only appearing on her own banner, one other normal banner, and one 1-pull only guaranteed 5* banner.

Going by the JPN schedule, she'll be released in this coming April.

I know she is a bad hero but she is just so grunty I want to use her. She will pair well with Marie.
