You can have it set in either, the effect goes through regardless of if the character is on point or not.

By the way, are we using this thread for the JP and ENG versions of FGO, or are we using the TM thread for the JP version and this for the ENG one?

I'm gonna make the judgment call to say both are fine, but chill out with any particularly relevant spoilers to English players. Like I don't expect people to not talk about Agartha in a few days and the Agartha stream just because it's mostly EN.

My assumption for spending ap is to do the weekly quests for daily dungeons, do whatever story stuff I can do, and if I hit a point where there's nothing I can do I go back to the dailies? Does that seem right? Just finished up France, but a couple of the later bosses weren't trivial. Running Shield, Tamato Cat, Cu Chulaun, and then I'm not sure. Saber Lilly and Mephistophe for now. All are approaching 20 but I've used up the booster resources.

P much yeah. Events will be a thing at some point too, but the first event doesn't drop until the game is out for like a month so a lot of your time is gonna be story, free quests, and dailies.

Is there a gameplay reason to hold out for a non-waifu/husbando character? It seems like with the way the support system works you could just friend someone with Waver/Jeanne if you really needed them for an event, no?

Yes, there's no real reason to not hold out for your waifus and husbandos unless you just want your own broken servants since you can only have one support servant on your team.

If that's the daily you can do for exp then yeah do it. I'd honestly recommend trying to get a support Herc and using him to carry you through 20 and 30 AP exp quests since you not only get better exp cards but the master exp you get will be enough to keep leveling up your master level for a bit.

Man, Siegfried is really bad. He can't even pull his weight around in Orleans fighting Wyverns - i'd rather just pack another assassin.

Is Saber Lily any better? Should I just go with a 3-star saber instead?

They are both pretty mediocre, if you want a saber that does stuff then Caesar and Alter Artoria are your best bets. That being said they're not gonna help with wyverns, you should just be using assassins for that in general or zerkers.

You can absolutely gain more than one master level at once and end up with like three times your maximum yeah, but that's only like in the opening parts of the game. There's no limit to overflow as far as I know, but maybe someone else can chime in on that.

You're gonna get so little mana prisms you are better off doing like both 30 and 40 ap quests and melting down whatever silver exp you get and that'll get you more MP alone than any of the lower end dailies would've gotten you and you can still keep up on master levels.

Is it better to have Artorias Saber or a character that has a bunch of red cards to make my Hercules hit hard all the time?

Artoria's probably better to have since she has waveclear NP and two buster cards so she can actually work with herc p well as far as card synergy goes.

Stagger_Lee posted:

The "acquire" master missions - do those drop from specific dailies, or just randomly from anything?

Getting skill gems comes from the green dailies that are based around the class triangles, yeah.

If you start off an attack with arts you inherently gain more NP for your following cards, but if you use buster cards to follow it you are at best gonna get 1% NP gauge increase. So you normally wanna follow the first arts with ideally another one or a quick card since both give you an actual significant increase of NP gauge. If you've been working along those lines you should be able to get NP with Artoria who has generally pretty alright NP gain. Like 30AP hands are weak, but you should be able to get excalibur off of hitting the first two waves enough especially if Artoria is doing overkill damage.

I still feel pretty obligated to use Silver XP on leveling up, I've only just hit 20 on a few dudes and it seems way more important to get everyone up to an ascension level ASAP than worry about hoarding prisms. Bronze though have almost instantly become worthless, obviously.

This is fine too, the game just started and people have plenty of time to get prisms. Getting to a point where you feel comfortable with your team is honestly the most important part of the game.

Story content should be held off on or black barred, servant identities are fine since those are gonna get passed around regardless since no one wants to say "Shinjuku Archer" when referring to James loving Moriarty.
