Hakuno isn't really a wimp compared to Hakunon, he's just kind of tired of putting up with everyone's poo poo and kind of a jerk

To be fair, I would be the same if I had to be the sysadmin for the internet

Got enough xp to finally get around to Edison's Interlude, the last I had left.

The team of Edison and Emiya modifying Noble Phantasms is both charming and terrifying.

Ready to Poyozo Dance all over your face.
Even with the systems in Chaldea backing us up, the Servants still draw some mana from Guda-san. Darius III's second Interlude has him drawing on your mana as he keeps chaining battles in an attempt to get Iskandar forcibly summoned so they can finally settle their grudge match, and even though it eventually works, Iskandar isn't summoned at full strength, and Darius himself breaks off the fight before a decisive conclusion could be reached because he senses that you're at your limit for supplying mana. Any further fighting runs the risk of killing you by using up all your mana, and even under his Madness Enhancement, Darius will not allow himself to harm you like that, which is notably unusual for a Berserker Servant.

Had experience CEs saved up since the first GudaGuda rerun. Naturally all the Supers and Greats only happened while MLBing CEs compared to 0 for the EXP CEs.
At least the Servant EXP had some better luck but sheesh I felt somebody trolling me from beyond with this.

In Heracles' interlude you literally pass out when you have to supply his mana yourself because he's a top tier high end Servant and you are not a top tier high end mage. Someone like Mata Hari could probably be supplied no problem.

It's basically your rank as a Magus, because you saved the world but also you kinda suck rear end at doing magic so they just give you rank 5, which means you're average at magic

If you're asking what the etymology of the rank is the answer is nothing, just like ranks in real life

Yeah, I was asking about the etymology more than anything.

Having over 200 means I can max out like, one servant from scratch, maybe two if they were low rarity. This game is cruel. How could it get worse? Oh right, I'm playing a gacha game. :haw:

Demon Hearts are one of the mats I never find myself running low on for some reason. I think because events supply a bunch and you usually only need a few for ascensions/skill-ups.

Same. Although this current set of quests feels more like a Fang one. I've yet to get a single heart across 2 AP bars.

Jeanne is so much better after her interlude! I still wish her star pull was a bit less, but she seems like a really solid generic support for any damage dealer now.

i wouldn't say she's anywhere near a generic support, since she offers almost no offensive benefit and her ridiculous level of defense is rarely needed

I guess I like her as an alternative to Hans. You lose out on his Crit up, but in exchange she never dies. Hans dying to regular attacks is a pretty common problem when I use him. It is pretty lovely that she has a dead skill though. That would be much better as even a vanilla Charisma.

We are almost utterly incapable of using magic but we have decent mana reserves and the ability to change gender at will, while keeping up with mana transfers a RATHER athletic body by the end of part one due to America, Camelot, and training with Leo in Babylonia. We are functionally only as capable as the Fate/Extra protag in that we can only cast magic pre-made in Mystic Codes and aren't even particularly good at that -at least thats how I interpret our inability to cast any ability faster then like 12 turns and start out using them very poorly before getting used to them-. Our main strength is a compatibility with LITERALLY ANYONE, it seems not incredibly unlikely that given enough time and a psychiatrist office we could have turned ANY of the Beasts to our side since even our enemies fall over themselves to help us after we beat them. At least some people have debated that we weren't all that different from the part 1 boss because our way of speaking dramatically shifts based on who we are around as we adapt to the people around us, sometimes making us basically punch drunk other times intellectual and sometimes we shatter the fourth wall but I blame Nobu for that, Okita agrees with me.

.....As another thing I recalled actually. We are stated to have vastly above average tactical ability to control our servants together with good commands. Some of this could be stated to also come from the vast number of historical personages we've meet with and learned from though. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to know that canonically Waver is giving us lessons when we aren't actively in the field as well.

Our stun works on the king of mages :black101:
