I am really really enjoying Waver and Gudako's Excellent Adventure. I'd like to think in some other timelines this is how Archer acts when he gets summoned in F/sn.

Tired Moritz posted:wait, the drop ce and the event servant bonus don't stack? the hell The event servants give bonus to coins of the class they are strong against (or berserker of Lancelot and all for angry mango) while the CEs boost their class (gets weird with extra classes), yeah they don't stack since it's not the same bonus except on two of them.

They both function at the same time, they're just mostly at cross-purposes. Servants boost drops from their advantageous class (ie Saber boosts lancer drops), while the CEs boost their own class.

Something I haven't been entirely clear on. Are characters like Bride Nero supposed to literally be different people? Her deal is basically "Yeh this Nero wasn't in Extra so she'll totally crush on you" but that doesn't make any sense. For that matter, Avenger Jalter is definitely the same as Orleans!Jalter, but she's not the same as Shinjuku!Jalter? Or something? What about the swimsuit versions of characters the same as the regular ones just in different outfits or... What is their deal?

To use an example, if you have a 3 Star CE from the FP summon or Iskander gacha, and you're farming a node with Assassins, put the 3 star CE on an Assassin Servant/Avenger Servant/Mash in your party if you want, and/or field Waver, Iri, and/or Caster Gilles with some other CE of your choice. EDIT: @above: The flow of time is convoluted.

Took about 850k for me to get Weakest Avenger. Now I'm stacked with bonuses so much I'm worried about combat effectiveness in later fights, lol.

Also, for that specific purpose it doesn't matter which Assassin it is, so you can bring Jack or whoever, since the Hassans won't give you any special bonus to Assassin drops (only Rider ones).

Buns are either the first 20 AP quest or the 100 talisman quest where you fight Karna + Arjuna. https://twitter.com/niconikon01/status/986640051541950466 and https://www.reddit.com/r/FGOGuide/comments/8d48yv/quick_go_west_rerun_guide/ both have some good information for this event, if you need anything else.

Motto posted:What's wrong with that event besides the 2nd week swerve? Sounds like it has issues with the grinding even besides that. The only way to get Lotus is by paying a different currency to even fight on the nodes that give Lotus. Every single time. You literally grind just to accrue enough currency to grind on another.

Motto posted:What's wrong with that event besides the 2nd week swerve? Sounds like it has issues with the grinding even besides that. The only real problem left with the event imo, with the caveat that it's a big problem even on the rerun, is that you have to grind to grind. There's are two currencies separate from the shops currencies that are used solely to access the best farming nodes. Note, not to unlock, but you have to spend each time. They alleviated a lot of the problems of the original by hugely increasing drop rates, making more bonus servants available, and increasing the bonus to drops you get from bonus servants and CEs, not to mention people already having MLB'd CEs to use right off the bat, but the double grinding thing is still bad.

Trip report. ~1.2 million FP spent. Got 2 Hundred faces, enough 3* event CEs to MLB three before burning the rest, and finger tips sore from tapping the thousands of trash items. No Angry Mango though.

What about the swimsuit versions of characters the same as the regular ones just in different outfits or... What is their deal? The servants you summon are basically copies of the full heroes stored in the Throne of Heroes, rather than the actual heroes. But they're only partial copies, who only get some aspects of the hero rather than the entire thing. Different versions are copies that got different aspects of the same Servant - for example, Saber Gilles and Caster Gilles are both copies of Gilles de Rais, each one only getting part of the original Gilles' skills, memories, and personality. When that copy is done with their Holy Grail War and unsummoned, the Servant itself goes back to the Grail but doesn't take their memories along - at best, they get a bunch of loose factoids like "X happened and Y happened". Different summons of the same Servant are different copies of the same person, with essentially no memories of their previous summons - at best, they'll have vague impressions of things they saw or met in previous summons (for example, the Extra servants' tendency to like each other even though they don't really remember what happened in Extra). There's exceptions to both of those paragraphs, because the Fate universe is all about exceptions. But for the most part, that's the rule of thumb.

Cuntellectual posted:I thought the throne was supposed to be connected over every timeline? What Main Paineframe said. Also, FGO is a little weird in that it's implied that every servant the MC has ever met has been summoned and is living in Chaldea, and that unless directly portrayed otherwise Mash is the only servant that leyshifts to singularities with the MC. There is some stuff much later on that clarifies aspects of that, but

Presumably the servants you can summon are almost always going to be connected with your timeline. No catalyst? Then the master effectively acts as one, so it'll draw a servant from your timeline because it's yours. Got a catalyst? Well, it's almost certainly going to be one from your timeline, etc. And then FGO kicks down the door.

I didn't have time to really even start this event until mid afternoon today, and so far I'm just kinda bumbling my way through, with boosts as high as I can get granted, but my strategy for spending crests so far has been to look at all the quest unlock materials available and choose one at random. Seems to be working well enough so far, but I feel prioritizing better would be smarter. Still plenty of time though.

I saved up about 1.6 million and had to stop after about 300k FP because of the hell of constantly clicking 10-roll and inventory management. On the plus side, it finally got me to level up my scrub servants. Mata Hari will finally be happy.
