The bond bonus is a trap when you consider that you get 99% of your bond comes from farming, its like the people that try and bring three bond bonus ces to every boss fight and lucksack through.

It's not about the bond points, it's about the challenge. They could make the bonus be literally nothing and I'd still try to beat these singularities with only bonus servants.

fate has taught me more about historical figures than the education system
I discovered Code Geass back in 2008 because I was reading wiki articles about British royals (big history nerd) and bumped into that series' page. The first thing I knew about it was the ending. So I watched the whole series with that knowledge.

Therefore my first experience with Fate was 'Waitaminute King Arthur from Monty Python is a chick with a broadsword? Cool!'

It reminded me of Trigun. I think it has to do with how Christianity was seen as this weird exotic religion in Japan and its practitioners were assumed to have magic powers.

If she’s an AoE it’s fine, last AoE welfare Archer was Nobu. Knowing DW, probably ST tho (again)

Personally, I’m really not a fan of Saber Astolfo’s design, so this is an easy skip for me.

I get the comparison, but it's not a very good one.

Yeah, Babylonia is a lot more stand alone, so they could bring the anime only watchers up to speed if they wanted to. The anime could work as a way to bring new people to FGO, or at least to share one of its highlights without them having to enter the gacha hell, so I am kinda irritated that it doesn't care about anyone who is not already FGO fan.

Yeah it's light hyperbole but the fact of the matter is that FGO is a complete, ridiculous juggernaut in Japan and it doesn't need its anime to bring in new people.

Ah yes, we're totally overloaded with *checks notes* 4 archer welfares now, one of which is the oldest welfare in the game, compared to 2 - 4 of every other main class.

st buster welfare could be a good option since that pool is pretty small, but chloe did just rerun this year for st. an arts aoe they let be a looper would be good, quick she'd probably not be good enough to compete with atalante, buster she might be meh unless they give her battery or something.

this all ignores that she might have a support based skillset that would still be useful or even a full-on support np? (pls)

Use the system for claiming Mecha Liz to let you pick between a palatte-swapped Ruler Ver. or Avenger Ver of a welfare servant.

Figuring out who qualifies for both classes will be left as an exercise for the student.

1*s Arash and Spartacus are some of the best farmers in the games.

The number of Servants with 3 turn taunts can be counted on one hand with fingers left over, and 2* George is one of them.

2* Hans is just a step below the Big Four in terms of being an amazing Buffbot.

3* Cu Chulainn is nigh unkillable and can be used to solo content all the way to boss fights over the latest JPN story chapter.

Ditto Hozoin Inshun.

3* Euryale is one of best slaughterers of Male units in the game.

These are just the ones considered amazingly good. Most of the others have their own use cases and niches.

And of course.

In 2 years' time Chen Gong will release.
