I actually am a bit annoyed by this because I did a 10-roll on story fishing for Bedis with the expectation that I'd be getting the quartz back.

Still debating banners. What's the opinion on Arjuna, post-interludes? The review link in the OP is broken.

I know as an AoE servant he's never going to be amazing, but stars per turn, instant NP charge, an NP interlude and a 50+% NP steroid seem like they should take him pretty far. Also all the wikis claim Clairvoyance (Bowman) gives Debuff Immunity (5 turns). Should that actually say Debuff Immunity (1 time, 5 turns), or is it really as good as it looks?

Does he have any major hidden drawbacks other than his basic arts-servant-with-an-AOE-Buster-NP status? And his personality, obviously.

His NP is aoe so its never going to hit that hard even with all of that, and the fact that he has a 50% Buster up but only 1 buster card means hes kind of screwed for regular damage output.

Clairvoyance (Bowman) is just 5 turns, not 1 time in 5 turns.

Arjuna is better than Gilgamesh (archer, not caster; caster version is great), don’t @ me

Amazingly bad roll on Da Vinci, just the Roman CE and everything else was crummy 3* stuff or the guaranteed 4* CE. Not doing the paid gacha either, so that's it for this anniversary.

Anyone running this on odd non-standard phone displays with notches? The game is sort of defaulting to a pretty small size on the total screen, which didn't happen on my old phone even though it had a notch also.

Altera is a solid beatstick that should put in some decent general work for you. Her party-wide NP buff is some added utility on top of that.

Rolled Knights, spook of Mordred.

Also 2nd Chev and Liz.

Roommate got Arjuna, who's got the "Its not Gil" thing going against him.

Its better than Medb at least.

Also did a few grouchy summons on story and got Carmilla finally, so yay i guess.

NP3 Mikon. So, a dup as expected (only Cu Alter would've been new from that group), but I'm ok w/ this one. Token roll on the DaVinci banner got nothing interesting, so now waiting on summer banners.

What does Arjuna have over Gilgamesh? Gilgamesh's NP does more damage, especially against the most common enemy type in the game, he has a better card setup, he has comparable NP gain despite less arts cards due to golden rule, he can crit spam with his third skill and it gives him NP, he has better stargen.

Like I'm not @ing you I just don't know what you think makes Arjuna better than Gil.

I had enough embers to get LAltria to level 92 (not enough ascension materials though) just in case she came home.




My faith was rewarded. :toot:


Rolled on DV banner and immediately regretted it as I remember I could have rolled on the DV Salter or Lalter banners. Oh well.

I still kinda find it messed up that it only uses Paid Quartz for the confirmed 5 star. But eh, those the breaks.

Still, half AP embers and 3X upped output is great. Finally level my servants properly!

My Banner pull netted me Drake (Cool, I suppose. I mean, Medusa is still my Rider Wife for Life.), but then, in a shocking turn of events, I also pulled Waver!
Which means now I need to train up Waver!

Well, the paid banner was a mixed bag for me, got all dupes but one of them was the best dupe I could get and the other two were decent, got my second Ozzy, Waver and my third Herc. I really wanted Tamamo or Cu Alter and Waver & Herc spooking me was pretty bad but I can't really complain about NP2 for some of my best servants.

Naturally there's no Bedivere in the Knights banner - a bad sign for anyone hoping to see an early rate-up for him on NA - but weirdly there's no Gawain or Tristan either. Seems odd, since all the other story-locked servants are in.

It was mostly a joke, which is my understanding of how people use “don’t @ me”; as a sarcastic statement accompanying contentious opinions. Sorry to insolently disagree with your review, Boss. I’ll keep my failure-tier strats to myself from now on.

Well, Drake wasn't really who I was looking for, but she's still my first 5* Rider so she'll do. Getting two 5* CEs was something of a waste of luck, since I've already got an MLB'd Heaven's Feel, and the other was Ideal Holy King.

Rolled on the Knight banner because honestly I was far more excited to get any of the servants on that than on Cavalry, where I already had best boy Waver, Iskander, and Vlad for 5-stars, and Jack has never interested me. Got a gold lancer card and was mentally preparing myself to live with NP 2 Scathach, but it turned out to be Lartoria. Also pulled a few decent CEs that I'm happy about.

Now to begin the grind...
