Thats kind of a nice idea, it'd be cool if never-returning welfares started getting added to the FP gacha to get some use out of them for newer players

The issue is that most of the Welfare servants have special Ascension items, like Nobu's gold skulls or Ridertoki's lighters.

Maybe an option in the Mana Prism shop to purchase ascension items for the welfares? That or change their Ascension requirements when they get added to the FP.

Your gacha-bragging struck a nerve and accidentally set off my self-defense instincts. Sorry about that.

They've already said that Lily is the only welfare they're planning to do this with, because of the 15th Anniversary.

My 2019 rolls went pretty well with all target snagged.



Trying and failing to get np2 Eresh really hosed with my percentages. Rolling for Summer Mordred was also awful; 300 sq and only one 4*.

So for dealing with Gawain I know it was recommended that I use Euryale but would Robin Hood still work okay as I already have him up to 40 compared to a flat 1 with her.

Probably not without a lot of support. Damage alone isn't enough to deal with the nastier Camelot bosses - you also need a lot of survivability skills to stop the damage they do to your team, and Robin doesn't contribute all that much to that side of things. Euryale doesn't just have a big damage bonus, she also has multiple sources of charm and a NP drain, so she can prevent a significant number of enemy attacks over the course of a boss battle.

Well I'm currently in Chain Hell trying to get Eresh to 8/8/8.

Thankfully Caster Liz/Nito/Merlin can 3 turn the best node for them so I can just autopilot it.

Then I need 183 stakes to get her to 10/10/10. :suicide:

On the plus side:

One would assume so, but IIRC they like making New Years a surprise, so even though most people know what's coming because we follow the JP seclude there might not be an announcement other than a maintenance announcement.

Last year there was no announcement, midnight just rolled around and bam GSSR and Musashi.

So is this upcoming GSSR thing the one where you just get something from one of two sets of classes? If so that's a bit of a shame since it gives a lot less control (if it was class based I could do Caster and have a pretty good chance at something I specifically need).

Definitely going with the second group if that's the case, since there isn't really anything I'm interested in from the first group other than maybe NP2 Dantes or Amakusa.

yeah the anniversary is when the GSSR starts to offer something almost like actual value for money in terms of variety and price, this one is kind of miserable for the bad odds of getting someone you want alone.

Well, kinda depends what you're getting a dupe of. NP2 for certain servants is actually a pretty huge difference to the extent that it might be a bigger gameplay benefit than getting a new servant. It sucks for certain servants, though (it seems like it's usually the best for damage NPs).

Seems like the english-speaking community is kind of grasping at straws for now. Her association with flames seems to be where people are drawing 'Cthuga'; I have no idea what Vthyarilops is.

I asked one of my friends about this and he's dead certain it's Azathoth, because of her association with music (specifically a flute) and summoning of ethereal dancers. I'm starting to think he might be right, Azathoth has 'Nuclear Demon' as a title and while it wasn't THAT sense of Nuclear nasu does like his puns, which would explain the blue fire.

EDIT: Also 2nd Seibah rework?
