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

That's still weird.

Using Tamamo's chocolate to level up Another Ending is 100% okay, though.

Counterpoint: Keeping the chocolate around until it fossilizes as a kind of holy relic is weird. You're supposed to eat it.

If you keep it around until it becomes a holy relic then you can use it as a catalyst to summon more of your waifu to up her NP level

Used a full bonus team + MHX and only Caesar was left in the end against Lalter.

I realise now it would have been a lot easier if I had taken Waver as I didn't need the points :doh:

All Saber team took her down after a command spell revive. Her NP wasn't as bad as I was expecting; only about 7k damage when resisted and unbuffed, so my stronger units were able to survive it. The NP seal was annoying, though.

I finally hit 2 mil :woop: , I had to use a command seal in the end against Latler but it was worth it.

Had to use a spell to get a 2nd NP out of friend Okita due to some really bad hands but that was easy enough. Will probably end the event at 1.5 mil just because I've largely gotten what I want.

I went in prepared to use all three seals but didn't need any. I wisely looked at my point totals and determined that I only needed like 100% rather than 200+. Essentially double Okita'd her to bits with a well placed d'Eon taunt in there and some timely evades.

I'm going to miss Okitas ridiculous numbers after this event; double waver and scath buffs made her first turn NP hit Lalter for 1.6m and then she later hit a buster crit for 500k

I didn't need to use any command seals for Lalter though there were some clear shenanigans with her killing my MHX through the guts she had from Star of Arturia, a wasted Mana Burst on my Arturia because I didn't notice she was NP sealed, and getting very close to Lily being my only remaining saber before support Okita was able to build up enough for a second NP.

I got Lalter with a 110% bonus team. George taunted everything for the first round while support Okita built NP and did a lot of damage. Dropped MC Invuln on Caesar and Okita's dodge to smoke the first NP. Then in the second round (with d'Eon taking over tank duties) Okita dropped her NP in a brave chain for like half her health bar. The rest was cleanup, with d'Eon prepared to dodge the next NP and do the last 50k if it came to that. Didn't even have to use a single command seal, so I'll probably go back to Altera with a full bonus team and just cheese it with seals.

I'd probably say D'eon has been my overall MVP for this event; 3-turn taunt and evade and guts changed a lot of clears from extremely risky to 100% consistent. Ironically my only complaint is that occasionally Charm would proc on her NP, messing up my timing for the next couple of turns.

Got to 1.16 mil points, not bothering with the last 2 challenge quests. No Apples used, a bunch of AP unused, but I had enough stuff to ascend a bunch of people, including Shisou to 4 and Herc to 4 (when I have the xp).

I probably should take out MHZ for at least the one Lore though.

Lalter down in a fairly close fight, I had to sub in Jeanne and Mash for Sieg and Saber Lily in the back, but didn't have to use any command seals. I'm stopping w/ 1.17m points, which actually surpasses my expectations for this event, given I didn't spend any apples and was kinda light on sabers.

Skimming the rate up banners, looks like the Knights of the Round Table Summoning Campaign which was in Nov '16. And, for better or worse, there are a LOT of four stars on that banner.
