I had no gold sabers before this event (and Lily is now my only one), and I'll probably hit 1M Altrium today. 1.5M is probably the highest I can really aim for, I think that Lore is out of my reach. Oh well. Pretty much every major event awards them, right?

Ready to Poyozo Dance all over your face.
The Jack fight was rough for me because I wasn't expecting her, and then I panicked and burned two command seals to have Nero and Salter NP back to back and she was still standing and the chimeras were dead and she just kept killing everyone... :gonk:

But when all was said and done, at the battle's end a lone figure stood triumphant with a single HP on my side of the field.

Next challenge quest is Altera and a lancer dragon. I'm assuming the ideal is to take out the dragon first since all of his attacks hit everyone.

Not necessarily sure I agree with this. Sure the dragon hits everyone, but it's hitting them for relatively minor damage (or just doing its NP buff skill) most of the time. The hits also charge your entire party's NP bars, so that's arguably a positive as well. Meanwhile, Altera is going to be doing massive chunks of damage to anything she hits, and it'll get worse if/when she starts using her attack buff skill.

Caveat here being if you're bringing a Berserker or Archer along to deal with Altera, in which case yeah you probably want that dragon down ASAP.

Don't forget the Herc that's in wave 2. I might set it up to use my NP on him straight away and hope I can build it back up during wave 3.

It might be possible to 2-round him, depending on card RNG, even without using an NP, so just using Gandr might be enough if you don't want him to get a turn.

Just a note here, but the Valentine's event has Fou's in the shop as well, 30 of each for a change, as does Jalter's event itself, so feel free to use whatever ones you have currently.

Haha, helper Okita is the sole survivor of today's Altera level w/ 83 HP left, and that was with the supports being point boosts (Caesar, Sieg, Saber Lily all level 40 or below, Caesar at least helped some). I did get lucky that Altera decided to not buster much and boosted her NP some instead of attacking. Still have all my command seals available for trying the 3 mil level tomorrow, definitely going to use a real support line for that.

If you're talking from a usefulness standpoint, Orion has been far more useful for me than Artoria on the JP server for Event farming and difficult missions across the last 2 years, mainly due to the guaranteed NP-drain on NP and the single-target 5-star damage.

If you're talking about art though, yeah, I stand by your opinion.

I won't lie, Orion was probably my second least favorable option, but I already had Okita by that point so at least I would have had another SSR in a different class

My Okita must really be getting exhausted during this event. Not only did she fail to get any quick cards for star gen during Nobu's Demonic King buff vs Altera (totally not my fault!), but even after using a command seal to charge her NP and doing an NPQQE chain she failed to finish off Altera because her NP's DEF down didn't proc (totally' okita's fault, it certainly was not Altera's Magic Resist).

Well, she got a few minutes break after her and Nobu got Photon Rayed. Thankfully Hans and Mash were in the back to finish off the last bit of Altera's HP. Fun fight.

Goddamn Okita is punching way above her weight this event. MVP in murdering Altera Galactera, the dragon, and Herc.

Dec 27, 2005

Herc ended up not being a problem because my Altera started off with a BAB chain that wrecked the poo poo out of him and he died easy on the next turn.

She sadly didn't live through the next round since she ended up on the wrong end of her own NP, but not before getting her own off while Nero and the support Okita knocked Galactera down to 50k.

Related, god I'm so glad Nero got her third skill with this event.

Yeah, beyond anything else this event somehow managed to sell me even more on Okita than I was previously. Crazy how useful she's been. Managed to clear today's challenge mission without using any command seals, so I'll have a full set for Lalter :getin:

My plan for Galactera is to Bring support Salter to blast the dragon to pieces with on NP while also pouring the damage where it needs to go, and eventually having Orion come to the front and finish the job. Only problem is I'll have to wait until tomorrow, because I have lovely luck and haven't seen a single Star or Altria drop, so I only have the 6, and I'm gonna want 4 on my points team for that 3 mil HP and then MLB a star to save on cost.

hello
The 5* CE Vessel of the Saint is, unsurprisingly, very good for Jeanne. It allows you to ignore the first 3 debuffs that hit a character including Jeanne's self-inflicted stun. You have to sacrifice your NP generating CE or 2030 that would normally go on her, but it's a very good situational CE to have available.
