Dr Pepper posted:Yeah when I saw my NP3 Carmilla fail to oneshot her I decided to go back to the previous stage until the next node unlocks. The nice thing is that, according to the Kscopedia guide, before the 7th gate unlocks, all the gates drop almost the same amount of sands. So you're not losing too much by going back and farming whatever node you find easiest.

Dr Pepper posted:Yeah when I saw my NP3 Carmilla fail to oneshot her I decided to go back to the previous stage until the next node unlocks. NP3 Carmilla with Fondant au Chocolat and friend Merlin can occasionally kill her in one turn, but yeah, usually there's a turn or two of cleanup. It would probably be more clear-cut if I'd taken the time to level Fondant, but you know how it is; so many good event CEs, so little EXP.

even my np5 carmilla isn't one-shotting consistently with just NP (post-interlude though...) the card cleanup is easy to come by though

I ended up getting it down to 4-5 turns with ibaraki/arash/friend jack/my jack/mash by putting kscopes on Arash, ibaraki, and my jack, using the first two waves to build NP for the support, double tapping the second wave with ibaraki and Arash, and then plugsuiting in Mash to top off my jack and double maria-ing medusa. Kludgy and I get hosed by RNG occasionally and Im not using as many event CEs as I'd like, but I can still get +3 sands and clear the node relatively quickly.

This Rider node actually sucked rear end for farming in multiple respects. The Servants that give bonus drops to the main event item here are all Casters (and Mash). Thankfully, the real node to farm for bells is an Assassin node, but still. Yeesh.

NP2 Jack (+kscope) with double waver + plugsuit should be able to kill Medusa with just np. NP1 is working pretty well for me in a three turn set up. I've got gently caress all for the next node.

i can do this caster node but it feels really bad lol all of you who put up lotto shiki have spoiled me so i'm definitely sticking with the medusa node. thanks again e: apparently you can do it with ridertoki and rishtar so it might not be that bad dogsicle fucked around with this message at 06:22 on Dec 18, 2019 |

I was having a decent bit of luck with this:  You could also just face card the first wave for a couple turns instead of using Nitocris. Having a much better time though using this, but its definitely not something everyone can just slap together:  Drake double NPs both wave 1 and wave 2, between the stars from her first NP and the stars from her battery skill you've almost certainly got enough stars for Drake or Quetz to finish the Djinn off after Drake's second NP. Then you just completely bury Quetz in buffs and she puts Nitocris into the mat hard and you've got enough stars from the second Drake NP to finish the job if the NP doesn't

dogsicle posted:e: apparently you can do it with ridertoki and rishtar so it might not be that bad You still need double waver to do this comp, but yeah this works fine (you just need to get 10% charge on Kintoki on turn 1 or 2)  If you don't have a kscope for the double Ishtar NP you can use Arash for the first wave and give Ishtar the lotto CE, and I don't think any of the welfare skills actually need to be lored other than maybe Kintoki's battery e: also I tried it with the gold drop CE on Kintoki - it's convenient to not need to find the facecard NP charge on the first 2 turns, but you will end up needing a lot more crit/facecard damage on Nito since you lose the extra quick damage on his NP astr0man fucked around with this message at 07:36 on Dec 18, 2019 |

Could someone remind me why Ereshkigal counts as evil? (Answer: alignment is assigned via dart board)

A popular theory is that alignments are often basically self-reported and how the servant views themselves.

Same reason FSN Gil is Good. So yeah, darts.  But more seriously I think it's based on contemporary perception of the hero rather than modern ones. Underworld lord, death, bad.

It probably bodes poorly for the smug looking Crypter bro that Charlotte is going to be a featured story Servant in this, right? Or is that wishful thinking on my part? also wow Talos really is just a Megadeus huh?

Nightingale and Shakespeare have both been on British currency within the last few decades, and I'm pretty sure I remember an Irish coin with Cu Chulainn on it before they switched to the Euro. They can't compete with Europa being on every single Euro note, though. NRVNQSR fucked around with this message at 17:34 on Dec 18, 2019 |

Is Orion the first time we've ever had the same servant in the same container twice and the difference is just "this time no one hosed with the summoning"? All the other "same person" ones are usually different aspects and often different containers.

All the other "same person" ones are usually different aspects and often different containers. Red Nero and Bride Nero, arguably. From Chaldea's point of view Bride Nero is the real version, Red Nero is some weirdo from the moon. You might also count Assassin Li, though the version of him from EXTRA still hasn't appeared in FGO. Also I'm not sure "this time no one hosed with the summoning" is true for Orion? His name isn't just "Orion", after all.
