What's a good DPS for the boar challenge quest? In other words, what are the tags in play?
I was thinking about defaulting to Murderdaughter, since she also gets some bonus against Ishtar, but that's mostly on the back of her being a really strong ST assassin; I doubt the giant divine boar counts as female.
Worse come to worse, command seals are there for a reason.

Jack is pretty decent, don't forget to use her heal and her information erasure skill, it reduce crit chance, which can really reduce the bull's damage output. Fondant au Chocolat is also a good Craft Essence to use, it was from the Valentine's event this year and offers a 30% bonus damage versus divinity, which the bull counts as.

If you're looking for a support, a strong friend King Hassan makes a great cleaner to put in the final slot of your party. With a heal, 3 turn defense buff, guts, and a triple buster deck he can finish the bull off with some brave chains when the rest of your party falls.

Oh, the divine boar. Bring a lancer like enkidu to deal with Ishtar, Mash or Jeanne to mitigate damage, and a big hit assassin like First Hassan, preferably as your last slot to exploit Guts.

Yeah I had Kiyolancer with kaleido on my front row just to ensure that ishtar never got a turn because when I DIDN'T do that she'd decide to crit for 9k even without her crit/attack buff.

Yeah, Ishtar can completely ruin your day if you don't take her out really quickly. One good option if you can't nuke her down in one turn is to bring stuns and charge drains or NP seal.

What a childish tactic!
Don't you think you should put more thought into your battleplan?!


Also remember that NP seal is still useful even if their NP isn't charged, as it blocks them from gaining a charge bar at the end of the turn like normal.

Making him brown wouldn't have been more accurate though; the skin tone they gave him was similar to his real one. If you want to look at characters who were given inaccurate skin colors there's Ozymandias, who in real life had light skin and red hair, as well as Darius III and Scheherazade, who were Persian but are depicted as being black.

Les soldats se trouvent dans la vérité.

If you had read that passage more carefully you'd have noticed that it is describing the color of his desiccated corpse, which looks different than what he looked like in life. I guess I'd better quote the relevant sentences:

quote:

Ramses II was a ginger haired 'cymnotriche leucoderma'." The description given here refers to a fair-skinned person with wavy ginger hair. Subsequent microscopic inspection of the roots of Ramesses II's hair proved that the king's hair originally was red, which suggests that he came from a family of redheads.

Yeah, I sort of figured Darius was just supposed to look unnatural/supernatural, what with the coal based foundation and gold inlay, not that it was supposed to be an actual depiction of the real historical figure.

The ad for Summer 2019 (JP) is out and it seems to confirm Melt, Okita, and Edelfelt (I think? What other statuesque Blondes are there? I doubt that it's Emperor Artoria, but could be) for the second batch of swimsuit servants

...Melt is wearing a penguin suit...

I'm pretty sure that is in fact Lartoria in the ad, the gold cross on her little tie is reminiscent of the cross on her crown and the blue in her costume is pretty much the same as the blue in her lancer form.
