I like to use Jack for the Sphinx. The Sphinx in the Pyramid node counts as female, and Jack turbo fucks it with her NP.

For some reason my brain uniquely parses Jack's NP as her getting picked up and overarm flung at the enemy to go blender-mode on them. She's a projectile woodchipper and I love her very much.

I've been using her in the same node and it's just really reiterated for me how GOOD Jack is. She deletes female riders, she generates crit stars by the bucket full, her absurd hitcount means that if you're lucky and get a NP/Quick/Quick/Extra chain then she's often going to refill her own NP gauge by 50%-70%, and if you level it up to 10 her Surgery skill is 2500 health every four turns, which is actually pretty good sustain.

That's a good improvement. I remember being annoyed during the Summer event that the "Mountain Dragon (Male)" didn't count as male.

It also means I can swap out Shiki for Carmilla and make my Pyramid farming a bit smoother.

For a real, actual Halloween 2018 spoiler that perhaps also merits (tagged) discussion:

So, how about das Rheingold?

Is that really much of a spoiler? We've known the Einzberns had the Rheingold for a while now, the event opens with a shot of a giant pile of gold, and the fact that Ilya was somehow related to and trying to protect that gold made it pretty clear from the very start, I thought.

The true spoiler secret of Oniland is this.

Three tickets, got what I wanted most of this banner, ie: Dangerous Beast. Mostly going to be moving on to the pyramid though, so it'll be a bit less useful from here on, but w/e.

Also, Herc bond 10 get. Now he gets to sit on the bench forever until I hit something actually hard that I can't just seal through.

Challenge quests really aren't if you've got a decent stable of servants worked up already, and I'm a leveling spaz so most of my roster is at least at second ascension, so it was really easy to do, overall.

E: also, playing through Okami at the same time as FGO is a bit of a trip, lets just say.

That is an amazing mental image and I love it. And yes, Jack is a Tiny Murder Machine. I don't have her skills levelled up too much since she is a recent addition to my crew (Spooked me during our Summer misadventures), but I intend to rectify that once I have enough QP and Gems.

Good thing both upcoming Christmas events involve a lotto with Gems in it, so that should sort itself out pretty quickly.

Rolled for Cuzerker, got Osakabe. Her skillset is thematically fitting at least. For someone who never wants to leave her room. Never roll.

Also sort of off-topic, but part of what got me to give FGO a try was that I have a nostalgic attachment to Sakurai's Steampunk series. I suppose we don't really have a fitting thread for that? I don't feel like opening one since all I really have to say is that there was a new entry and it was pretty phoned in. I guess the phone gamble game pays better.

I'm pretty much exclusively looking for MLBed gacha CEs; the Mata Hari CE I already got because I am planning on running the feather node almost exclusively. I wound up MLBing Wizard & Priest because I weirdly got like 3 CE drops killing Vlad at the castle gates so I figured I might as well. Unfortunately no Brave Eli's so that will have to wait until the rerun.

Seeing as I have yet to get my Eli CE MLB, I am thankful for the people in my list who have it MLB on their supports as it saves me the trouble of having to use all my slots for spawn rate increasers.

At least the Pyramid is one of the drop spots for the Eli CE so you can grind while you grind.

Already got mine, though. This loving RNG :negative: Can't get Jalter, but I can get CE drops like nobodys business.

An NP5 D’eon post-interlude might actually be worthwhile. That 30% Atk down for 3 turns must stack with a few servants decently?

Fortunately my D’eon is NP5 somehow.

I'm in the market for a mobage and I kinda want it to be some sorta jrpg-esque game

1) How friendly is this to surface level people who don't roll or throw cash at gachas? I just want to mindlessly attack enemies during my work's downtime

2) If I (or rather, my phone) closes the app mid-battle, will it resume it? Will I lose much progress?
