Is the reroll strategy then to play through the prologue and have basically 3 rolls?
- Guaranteed 4* roll
- Prereg bonus roll
- Prologue roll
When does the guaranteed 4* roll occur? Before or after the prologue? If before the prologue, should we be playing through the prologue regardless of the results from the guaranteed roll to get the extra roll?

I haven't played the JP version, but from what I gathered, its a single pull for a guaranteed 4*. After completing the prologue, there's enough quartz earned for a full 10 pull from the normal gacha (1 guaranteed servant of 3* or higher).

Depending on when the single guaranteed pull occurs will affect efficiency of the re-rolling procedure.

Man I ascended my Saber Alter and I still feel like attacking with her instead of herc is a bad idea, dude hits just too dang hard even at like level 25.

Saber alter's strength is her NP to clear trash waves and do lotsa burst aoe dmg. Herc is turn to turn consistent high damage from his buster cards.

I need some help with picking my 4*. I currently have Atalante for my Archer and Lancezerker for my Berserker. Should I go with EMIYA or Herc? The Waifu option is Stenhlo (currently: Hassan/Kojiro) and the comedy option is Marie (currently: Uchi). I like Herc as a character slightly more than EMIYA, but I feel EMIYA might be a better archer than Atalante in a vacuum, while Lancezerker would fill the same buster role as Herc.

So just for fun, I did a reroll on my ipad just to try my luck. I thought my ipad was glitching because I literally saw Robin show up 4 times in a row during the tutorial roll:

Yeah, it's not the drop rates that's better, it's the 5 chaos claws from quest reward and all the stuff you can get for medals from the event exchange shop.

Rates definitely are better than the dailies for the specific drop because you can't get spooked by a demon spawn. It's just still terribly low rates. I've gotten 2 claws out of 420 AP.

You mean you guys aren't 3-4 rounding 30AP? My strategy is around Lancelot w/ Imaginary Element, Saber Alter with Kaleidoscope, and a 3rd ascension Waver.
Round 1 - Waver uses skill 1 on Lancelot and skill 2. Lancelot NP: Knight of Owner
Round 2 - Saber Charisma, Waver skill 3. Brave or buster chain with stars from Lancelot NP
Round 3 - Saber Buster Boost, Chaldea uniform attack boost. Excalibur Morgan as part of a buster chain if possible. Clean-up as needed.

The rate up is nowhere near generous enough within that 1% chance of getting a 5*.

During the Gilgamesh rate-up I rerolled until I got a Waver, Vlad and Altria on the first pull, and Gilgamesh was actually the 5* I saw the least while churning out reroll accounts. Then using all of the Start Dash + Gil campaign + story completion + dolphin package quartz, I got another Vlad and a Jeanne during that rate-up. Now with the Orion campaign, I got another Waver and then finally an Orion.

Sooo 1 rate-up in 7 successful 5* pulls.

You also got 7 successful 5* pulls, so... gently caress you?

It's probably because the majority of your friend list is running Thiers/Germancia/Gaul, which can be cleared by just BUSTER SMASH! everything instead of needing NP boosting skills.

I actually prefer a Support Waver for Gaul, so that I can do Lancelot w/ Kaleidoscope and use Waver to instantly get him to 100% and use his NP on the final round. Since even with a Kaleidoscope, it's about a 50/50 chance Lancelot makes it to the final round with NP at 100%. God his NP gain is so bad!!

If you had a Max Limit Break Kaleidoscope, you wouldn't even need Waver. :gacha:

You could also (if you have the Mystic Code that prevents buffs once) cast the no-buff Code on Marie, unleash a NP burst on turn one, and then use command seals to unleash another NP burst.

God knows there's never really much use for Command Seals at this point anyways. I've used them a grand total of 3 times in NA.

It negates the effect of buffs for this turn (rather than prevent casting of buffs), so you wouldn't be able to deal dmg with a 2nd NP using a command seal, if she recasts it at the end of the current turn or if the invul lasts more than the current turn.

IIRC, 300 is the average number needed for a 5-Star. So once I hit that benchmark, then I'll think about what I want.

It's the average number for a 50% chance at a 5-star.
