Rolling for ages when all of a sudden... Waver, Kaleidoscope, Limit Over and Formalcraft!

gotta reroll for more waifus

Jeez. What a roll. Super jealous. I know a lot of people like Kaleido but I personally don't like it. I'd much rather have something like Limit Over or Formalcraft.

Is Waver really that good?

Seems so boring =[

I guess it's because my heart is with Shota Waver and my disgust I can't roll a Jeanne

He's that good, and will stay that good for years.

Waver's final ascension sprite is smol Waver, by the way, so you can freely use him when you max him.

Also, Hi! I recently finished rerolling and got myself Altera/Jeanne in one ten roll (i wanted waver, but...)

107952396 Just let me know if you add me. Got a lancelot too.
 
Hmm looks like Gilgamesh got released for 3M downloads. Not sure how NA FGO is doing there, or if they will do a 1:1 for these download celebration events. Looks like I shouldn't have to save too long then, looking forward to disappointment when I don't roll him!

Fuhahaha~

Gilgamesh will laugh at the filthy mongrels who dare to try and summon him!

Except Kenai. He'll probably get Gil too.

So when does the monthly reset happen for the summon tickets thing? I won't be able to get nearly enough mana prisms before the end of the week, should I just stockpile them until the monthly reset?

I'm still using the 3* exp cards to level up folks, so I can't burn them for prisms just yet.

It normally happens at the start of the month, midnight but the current tickets are listed for a full year so they're probably going to stick around a while longer.

Is there a resource that shows you where to farm for ascension materials? I'm looking for the little silver berserker chess piece things.

I don't think there's an US version yet, with drop rates listed, sadly, and the JP one is hilariously incompatible. You want to either go for the Four Cavalry daily for that (for an actual droprate), or you can try farming out I think Massilia in Septem.

EDIT: the images work, but yeah, it doesn't display relative droprates sadly.

Ah, gotcha. I'm just happy to finally know where they >can< drop. Somehow I had all the saber/lancer ones just from doing story missions.

So I may have been using your Waver a few times and I noticed it doesn't have a CE equipped.
Nope, it definitely does. Not a 5* CE (didn't get lucky with my pulls), but I do have a 4* CE equipped. Not sure why it's not showing for you though. :(

Edit: Wait, you need to manually set the CE in the support list for them to show?! WHAT!? Wow, I'm an idiot. :/

Sorry, will fix that now! Well, as soon as I can, busy right now. Man, thanks for letting me know.

What's the difference between Lancelot's C Star Gather Rate and C Star Drop Rate skills?

Drop rate increases how many stars a single hit from your attacks generate, Gather Rate increases the 'attraction' your cards have towards critical stars.

Every character has a different value and thus priority towards how many critical stars they attract, and Berserkers tend to have really low crit attraction, but with that skill, Lancelot's goes extremely high.

Yeah, we need a PSA on that. Support setups are completely independent of your regular party setups.

Don't worry about it. Your Waver has carried me through today's 40AP daily even without a CE. I'm just selfishly hoping it'll continue to carry me through things :).

Seriously.

I knew about needing to set the Support characters manually, but I didn't know the same applied to CE attached to them. Now I know!

He surely will! Hopefully, I will try to continue ascending/leveling him as quickly as possible.

BTW, I've (finally) added a CE to him. It's not the best (only improves QCK effectiveness by 15%), but hopefully I'll get something better in the future. Saving up as much Quartz as I can for those limited-time characters. :)

Now I don't feel so bad that three 4* servants after spending 75 quartz was my best pull.
Welcome to Fate Grand Order, a gacha game with some of the worse rates ever, I've seen casinos with higher odds of striking it rich than this :V

All seriousness though, luck (read: RNG) can work the other way as well. By that logic a free to play leech like meself wouldn't get a single gold but here I am, 2 years and several usable 4* and 5* servants later :3

Did you save up and try to get any particular units, or did you just YOLO roll whenever you had the gems to do it?

The whole thing with magic circuits, servants, and my character's status as a "Master".

Magic circuits is like midichlorian for the fate universe, it's what lets them use magic, Masters are people who were chosen to fight in the holy grail war, servants are historical figures or myths summoned to serve the masters for the fight.

that's the quick gist

I have 125 gold EXP cards, just waiting for the Caster daily so I can evolve Waver to his third form and instantly max him.

Today's daily is amazing, I'll probably get a few more runs in too before it ends.

That's what I am doing. I am a very patient f2p gacha player. Still waiting for a limited time Tharja banner before I spend my FE:H orbs...
Yeah, I hoard too. I'll probably wait for Saber Alter before I spend, but I'm not sure if she's limited time or not. If it's just a rate-up, I don't care. I need her.

As for FEH, I'll probably spend some tomorrow for the Tiki/Robin swimsuit banner, assuming they're decent characters. They're so cute.

I still need a Tharja though, I still don't have a single one of her. :/
 
Failed the 40 AP daily on first try (with everybody at level >35, even). But I'm less than 600 XP away from an AP refill.

Is there a way to get that much XP before today's dailies end? I'm at 1 AP.

Still no Tharja??

So glad I rerolled til I got her.

I think I misunderstood rerolling. It basically means just erasing all your data and then restarting again and again? I think I may just take what I get and move on from there.

Yea you basically just delete and re-dl it from the app store, then play through again ti you get to the welcome Quartz again.

Make sure when you feed him your other Herc you are at the right screen though. It's specifically for Noble Phantasm further down, not the normal Servant section.

So the ones I want to level up in terms of order is Altera -> Heracles -> Emiya? or should I move onto some 3-stars before Emiya?


Yeah Altera is Saber

The "weird" thing about this game is that the best 4* can be more generally useful than some of the more general 5* and Herc is widely considered the best available 4* because he does super effective dmg to *everything* not named Mash (at the expense of taking supereffective dmg from everything not named Mash). So you might end up using Herc more than Altera if you play around with stuff to keep him alive long enough. I personally think it's a bit of a risky playstyle until you get the hang of stuff but maybe you'll like it, I dunno.

Still, any 5* is a pretty good baseline to build a team around and she'll do good against anything that's not an Archer. If you grind on the exp dailies and just use what you get on both of them you should be able to get them up. I have been at it for a few hours here and there the last few days and my Jeanne is 50 and my Waver is 42, and that's without exp cards that match their classes. So even if you end up finding something better or something you like more down the line it's not agonizing to level up other Servants.

I'm not too familiar with how Strengthening stuff works yet to be able to answer on Emiya, tho I admit I'm not using him too much right now.

I had some good luck with the dailies with my waver and a level 60 saber friend. I didn't get nearly enough time in them though. My waver is only 40 or something :(

Where in game do you see the rock paper scissors for classes? i.e. caster beats assassin.

The place I always look is the little Class Affinity button on the Select Support page, but I think it's on the teambuilding page too.

What times are the daily resets at? I feel like there's a few different ones and I can't quite figure them out.

(In Eastern time, if you can, though I'll figure it out if not)
