Your gacha-bragging struck a nerve and accidentally set off my self-defense instincts. Sorry about that.
After throwing all my remaining tickets from Onigashima on this banner, I have received:

NP 4 Ushi (which is fine, she needs it)
NP 2 FSN Cu (same. Also, I don't think he likes me very much because this is only the 2nd time I've seen him in 6 months :( )
NP whatever Mephistopheles (get back to hell, clown)

3rd Imaginary Element.
2nd Another Ending
2nd Imaginary Around
That new CE with Maiya.

....goddamnit, why does my luck continue to expend itself on 4 & 5 star CEs? I don't care about the CEs! I want Ozy and Saberlot! Especially Saberlot! My only Sabers are D'Eon and Caesar! My quartz, my quartz for a gold Saber who's not Siegfried! :argh:

They will eventually come in droves, especially as you complete events.

Buying stuff from the shop (especially tickets) is fine, but it's probably worth keeping in mind that around October a CE will be released that will cost 5,000 prisms to MLB that you will REALLY want to get (it boosts bond points).

He was literally 'summoned' in a incomplete state so he had to consume Servants to regain his status and mind. Once he was complete, he was more professional.

You can get a few per day if you grind, but events seem to dump hundreds of them on you just for doing the bare minimum and let you buy hundreds more if you grind up some event currency. The monthly shop tickets and exp are so cheap that they don't really make a dent in that, at least compared to the absurdly expensive shop CEs.

He's in the guaranteed 5* paid summon for the anniversary, along with the guaranteed 5* paid summon at new years(assuming we get that) - which is apparently divided into the individual classes, so assuming we get that it'll give you a 25% shot of getting him there if you want to roll the Rider one.

In terms of non-paid banners he's not a limited Servant so you could get him whenever, but his next rate-up would be the Class banners in (probably) August - though he shares the Rider rate-up banner with two other 5*s - followed by being on the next Valentines banner along with another a month later.

Aside from paid guaranteed 5* banners, JP rateup calendar lists his next rateup as Valentine's. But given that every new singularity other than Camelot ran banners for the previous singularities before they dropped, I assume there's pretty good odds of him being on a Camelot banner before Babylonia, though probably sharing the 5* rateup with Lancer Arturia.

To go into more detail, Ozy is a very solid blend of offense with some team support. His Charisma isn't great but it's something. His third skill is a team 20% NP charge along with a team buff success up, which pairs nicely with Hans and servants with similar skills, and pairs up with his own second skill nicely. His NP does a lot of damage, applies defense down, and NP seals. So he can do a bunch of things with his NP in a pinch. Does a bunch of thing decently, just nothing revolutionary but that's not really a strike against him.

Nitocris is a mob wiper and potentially a NP spammer because her second skill charges 102% NP at level 8, which means you can pop it at the start or pop it after using a NP. Not amazing outside of that but she's cute.

Trihugger

hello
The more HP trash mobs have, the better Nitocris gets. It gets to the point that Nitocris outperforms 4* and below AOE Berserkers at clearing out waves of EoR trash. But that's not a concern until next year.

Ozzy is arguably the best single target rider in the game, even including the newer servants in the JP version. He has a party wide 20% NP gain much like waver, but it also increases buff success chance by 40% at level 10 which is huge because he also has imperial privilege which is a 3k heal with a 60% chance of increasing defense and attack by 40% for 3 turns, he also has charisma. So to sum it up he can boost everyone's NP gauge & attack, and gets an additional 40% attack/defence half of the time while healing himself and has great hit counts on his cards for decent NP gain. Oh, and one of the coolest looking movesets in the game.

Good enough for me, clearing assassin trash acceptably is what I was hoping for out of her, the fact I can do it two waves in a row potentially is just a nice bonus. :v:

Also glad to hear the best dickhead since Gil is great too, I'm super glad I decided to go for that roll now. I've wanted Ozy since I first saw his moves in a compilation list back when the game first hit here last year.

Nito's main trick is you put her in with a kaleidoscope, use Waver or Ozzy or Merlin or whoever to top her up to 100%, pop her 1st skill, clear Wave 1, pop her second skill to get 100% NP, and then clear Wave 2. Having one servant able to clear two waves opens up some more partybuilding options when making farming teams for events and such, and being able to spam instant death becomes more and more useful as the game progresses and you start seeing trash waves with very high HP pools.

Nito's biggest problems are that her damage is pretty middling if she doesn't proc instant death, she's at a man/earth/sky disadvantage against XP hands, and sometimes she'll proc death when you wish she wouldn't, since she doesn't get any NP back off enemies who get death'd.

Is Ozy's third skill additive or multiplicative, or whatever? If the def/attack buff on his second skill goes off 60% of the time and his third skill increases that by 40%, does that make it 100% chance or 84% chance?

Additive, it's why it's 60/40 like that. You get it to 10 to guarantee infinite Dio laughing.

Well, I pulled Nito, Serenity, Ozy, and Karn. The last two came off two summon tickets in a row, at that. My gacha luck sure has changed...now I just need to scrape up EXP from somewhere, since I've already blown through all my event embers. As the content gets tougher, it gets more and more expensive to raise new servants to a usable level.
