Actually Cuzilla lasts until the 12th.

Most probably will be some overlap.

Now do I really want to try for 2 of the best SSRs in the game at once...

I meant 1/2 AP (3/29-4/4), since those tend to come before content drops and it ends partway through the week after Sakuracon.

Yeah, unless there's some actual difficulties or something with getting the Da Vinci event running there'll definitely be overlap. Even in Japan the event was released on the 11th, and the NA server has been reliably running two weeks ahead of the JPN schedule. A good point was made that it may have been delayed due to possible incoming April Fools sprites, but after that should be in the clear. Actually starting the event later than the initial release would potentially cause issues of backing up everything later as well.

I just look forward to borrowing some of my whale friends' Cuzerkers to tear Camelot a new one, like how I got through it last time.

I really hate this rescheduling. I was all set to roll on Da Vinci and then use any extra on Medb or Cu, but things being reversed means I can't roll on anything.

It's killing me.

I'm ok with it since it pushes Medb out of the way so I can save for Jeanne a bit more without worry.

I just get to wait and hope.

I've built a mountain out of Lancer embers and looking at Cu kinda tempted to grail him. Doesn't help I don't have any better lancers, but I know Hans probably needs it more. There's like 25 grails total across the JP release right?

Yes, but so far no event has rerun more than once so if you miss both the first run and the rerun then that grail is probably gone. The 2017 Halloween rerun will probably be the first missable grail on NA.

I meant a second grail. I haven't played long enough to see both an event and the rerun in JP.

No; if you got the grail from an event's first run then the rerun will give you a Crystallised Lore instead, so you can only get one grail from each event.

The bigger question is, what are they going to do in May now? The Medb/Cu Alter banners broke up the gap in between Zero and Rashomon.

I'd approve of a 10,000 quartz giveaway, but call me a dreamer.

In JP news, I finally managed to reach the magical number of 108, the number of Fangs I'll need to 10/10/10 all of Lanctoria's skills, whenever I can get around to leveling them. Now comes the simple matter of...grinding about 45 Medals of Great Knight, and then a handful of horseshoes. It's not easy being an Artoria fan, or really in general someone who constantly gets new Servants who need lots of fangs. Lostbelt 1 will give me some reprieve, I suppose.

I've been so focused on dumping all my EXP cards into S.Alter and Medb to max them out that I completely forgot I rolled Tamamo as well. Who is still at level 16. Well...gently caress.

Yep, at this point no reason to not just move up Rashomon some indeterminate number of weeks to put them "back" on the previous schedule.

If you just kinda want to grail him, I'd hold off. Grails don't expire, they're limited, and Cu is great at level 70.

That said, I have a Cu at level 96, and the more grails and lores I pour into him the more unkillable he gets. It's been months since I had to use a command seal, and I go into a lot of the harder battles blind.

I grailed Cu to 90 and don't really regret it, even though he arguably became superfluous after I got Scathach. At 90 he pretty much has 4* stats and of course has the amazing kit that he does.

Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
I guess the one thing about Cu Alter is that iirc this is his only solo rate-up in the entire JP history, while Jalter has another one this year.

So....you have slight flexibility.

I don't wanna have to whale for Cuzilla at the same time as Jalter.

not to mention, if I actually do succeed in pulling him the upcoming Guaranteed gacha becomes even less appealing - especially if it ends up releasing before Camelot

Hell, the anniversary gacha is basically why I've been able to stop myself from rolling in anticipation for Jalter - I'm 100% rolling on the caster/assassin/rider/berserker banner because I have no 5*s in any of those classes and would prefer to keep it that way until then.

You would think that those stupid horseshoes would be a bit more common to drop since you are fighting four of them, instead of one as is usually the case.

Three-full bars back-to-back got me only two horseshoes. I do take some solace in the fact that i'm fulling up my stock of small gems of rider and saber (the latter especially so).

Horseshoes are in the lottery in Da Vinci. They're such a chore to farm I need some but I'm waiting and grabbing other things.

And so Saber Wars comes to an end for me. Nero still had Thrice-Setting Sun she could have thrown out, so she wasn't anywhere near out of the game despite her low HP. I really should level up her skills more. Final Artorium score was 2,374,910.
