So do the lottery boost ces work like the ones from knk where they make more enemies appear or should I not bother unless I'm specifically trying to farm specific manuscripts

IIRC, they don't increase the total number of enemies, so yeah, unless you're shooting for a specific manuscript, don't bother.

A wave of salt just hit me like a train a few minutes ago when I was watching a video of some rear end in a top hat Special Summoning his 5th Jalter from the shop, so I looked up a calculator to tell me what probability states my odds of getting Jalter should have been with all the SQ and tickets I had, including the SQ I plan on getting next Friday to bring my SQ total up to 1000.

According to this calculator I had a close to 90% chance of getting her, proving to anybody who uses probability as a source of hope that it's a pile of bullshit. Don't believe those fuckers who say that 300 SQ gets you a close to 50% chance of getting the rate up, it's all garbage. You cannot even begin to imagine my salt right now. 1% is still 1%, no matter what.

Yeah, they exclusively weight the true/fake ratio, so you're losing drops if you're using one over a SoC.

I would still recommend MLBing them later on though, Merciless especially is useful for strats.

Merciless is the one you DON'T want to MLB I thought, if you're doing soloing strats. Maiden's a much more reasonable MLB since it's a pretty good combo damage booster and star genner for a damage dealer.

I suppose you're right, 20% NP gain isn't much better than 15%, and you can split them to equal more in the long run.

The Real/Fake boost caps at 200% no matter how many you have on so there's no reason not to MLB the two.

Yeah, Jalter is my favorite character design since before I even knew she was a servant. And not like my previous account had anything special beyond Dantes.

I appreciate that.

Le Grondement de la Haine (were it spelled properly) is a great NP. Only characters I like more than JAlter are Musashi and Semiramis.

It's a pretty straight-forward route but it does end with a bang.

I don't think Personal Training is worth it, outside of maybe 1 copy for the art.
