You have to look at the general drop rates, but just assume that they are gonna be very bad unless proven otherwise. I pulled up my list and it estimates that drop rate at 17-18%, so you'll get one per average for 40 stamina spent. The monster event on Friday is a bit better average, but yea.
Ok, honestly with 18% drop rate on the list, i would have thought that i would have gotten lucky at least once. Will probably wait for friday daily then.

In the first post, it says that you can get a 4* with a facebook code. Is this still going on?
Also, after completing a level, you can choose it again, and it says, "free mission", i tried one of them but it still used some AP. Is it supposed to be free?

Dailies aren't much better so don't get your hopes up. I can't get these fucking feathers to drop. Everything else drops, not feathers.

The free 4* campaign basically ended this month. (It wasn't actually with a Facebook code either - that's just how it worked in Japan.)
"Free mission" just means the mission is still repeatable after you finish it. It still uses AP.

The Desire Sensor is real.
Never play with the intention of getting something specifically. Just play and collect the drops and then once in a while check up what you can upgrade/improve with what you already have.

Do the servant interludes ever give anything other than story and a quartz?
Some will upgrade a Servant's capabilities, either one of their skills will be unlocked or upgraded, or their NP will be upgraded.
I don't even bother farming anything but monuments in the dailies because the rates are just that bad. For monster hunt days; I run 3x each and be "happy" you got MP and move on.
And now a would you rather:
3rd ascend EMIYA, Martha, and Medea or Herc. Herc needs hearts and talons which overlap. Don't have the monuments ready or the all (0 archer, 2 rider, 4 zerk to go).

Herc has his biggest stat gains locked behind his later ascensions. The others all start slowing down at higher levels or only keep going at the same rate.
Yeah I need them for Altria -and- Elizabeth and just realized I probably need to spend my youth farming Dragon Fangs.

A lot of JP players rolled for Drake but we know that Iskander is coming so what we even need Drake for

THOSE WHO ARE ABOUT TO ROCK, WE SALUTE YOU
The standouts are definitely Nitocris and the drowning chamber, Helena's with the Independence Day out of nowhere, Summer Umu, Summer Nobu, and of course the fucking Meido Alter riding the fucking bike catching a fucking flying sniper rifle which still manages to shoot a fucking Seibah Beamu because as we all know, all real Sabers shoot beams.
Drake > Iskandar.
She is Frankenstein's Monster. So she does count as a monster girl.
I actually like Frankenstein's NP the most out of those, just for the pure simplicity of a big-ass fuckin' LIGHTNING LASER SWORD slamming down from high above.
Also like her normal attack animations. I need this kind of over-the-top madness in my life.
I'm not even a fan of her character. I just really like that kind of tech and fighting style. It's my jam, man.

No. She's not even top tier on the waifu list, why would she compare to Iskandar where there's single digit competition for husbandos?
Summer Nobu takes the crown for the one Servant in this game I absolutely have to roll for no matter what. Her normal attack animations are ridiculously good, too. Spins on the turntable built into her guitar to blow people up, surfs her guitar into people, plays a rad solo complete with an explosion behind her whenever she activates a skill. It's amazing.
Emiya is the only male servant that gets a perma spot on my team, I have no need for Iskandar because GAR.
Waifu talk aside though, just gameplay wise you can spam Drake's NP like 2 or 3x in the time it takes Iskandar to get his bar full (cos of her skills) so I've always preferred her cos of that.
Also boobs and a ship.

I don't even want Jeanne, silly FGO!
Huh? I thought the order went
Base -> 1st ascension (new art + skill) -> 2nd ascension -> 3rd ascension (new art + skill) -> 4th ascension (special card art)
Is there another way of referring to the ascension stages?

Subete no aware
So when does the next event start?

Ask again after this Otacon thing is done.
I have Waver so he will be fine. She does charge faster on her own, but he hits waaaay harder, especially when he lines up his boosts (attack boost, NP boost, and Buster boost/crit stars, whew)) plus his 8(!) hit NP mean I will finally have an efficient 2 round farmer since he will be good at using all those stars the round after naturally. Plus since his NP also has -def on it he'll be able to help knock some bosses around too.
Iskandar and Drake are in the same tier since what one doesn't do the other does, but since he's so OTP with Waver canonically and mechanically, drawing Isk would work out real, real gud for me.
some one who shalle notte be naym'd said:
I wasn't actually hoping this but the question was posed and this is my answer.
5* genderbent Genghis Khan, thicc, brown, but not a boobmonster like Scheherazade. Rider, but not shit. NP is Silk Road
(what a TWEEST)
Yes I'm writing fanfiction for a franchise I hate. Kill me now.
I'll be honest and admit that the text I had hidden by the spoiler is the most important reason I want her over the other 5* riders.
On an unrelated note, this shitpost made me laugh and since there's nowhere else to put it I'll put it here:

Okay, I just had my worst roll in any gatcha game ever.
It's like the game doesn't like me and I'm forced to play with Marie and Stheno forever and ever.

Just started playing a month ago, but it took a couple days ago that I finally got the mechanics and gameplay down. I didn't even know until yesterday you could switch mystic codes. On a whim I decided to burn all 10 of my summon tickets I earned since I started and on the last ticket I got Jeanne =D
Yup, Emiya will always on my team (until my waifu Kuro eventually gets here)

Wow, Umu's NP is gorgeous.
Holy shit, the girl with the guitar is amazing.
Yeah, that's Oda Nobunaga, who is usually awesome in every form of media.
