    Blegggggggggh. This event sucks donkey balls. You can't party build beyond "bring one or two of each servant class with event ce"; because you never know what you'll get in that third round, which makes farming Bitter effectively a real chore.

    Can't say I care too much about getting all this chocolate. Think I'm gonna try hard enough to get some materials to ascend Mordred/Umu/Vlad, but besides that I'm just gonna save my shit for KnK and what not.

    I'd have really liked to get UmuBride, but it's not like I have any quartz saved up and my bank account is...depressing. On the bright side (I guess), I managed to roll Anne Bonney and Mary Reed on a ticket.

    So....yay?

    So this is how having all these servants comes to haunt me.

    I've got about 200 saved up, haven't rolled on anything in months. Hopefully I'll pick up Saber Shiki quickly and have tons to spare for Jalter.

    A reminder that Nero Bride gets a bunch of rate up later so don't feel pressured to roll for her now. Shiki and Jalter is coming up after all.

    Actually, you can be pretty sure what you will get in the third round if you follow the enemy rate up clock

    https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/7ss1gh/valentines_countdown_clock/

    Right now its "Assassin" so the nodes with Rider, Beserker, Assassin and Caster will mostly have Assassin enemies.

    In a few hours its Lancer rate up. So the nodes with Saber, Lancer and Archer will mostly have Lancer enemies.

    During the lancer rate up, the dragon mid-boss ended up being an archer and wrecked my saber front line. RIP.

    The keyword being mostly only rate up enemies, There seem to be a few exceptions happening. It does make farming a lot easier, but going full ham on a specific class can have its drawbacks, as you realized.

    Yep happened to me as well, back line took care of him but then died in round 3. Figured the dragon was a fluke and just used my seals. Only happened the once.

    It's happens about 1 in 5 times for me. Now I'm doing one of each class in the frontline with a melty ce on the two non rate up classes, and with a guest supporter that is the rate up class with a +5. The backline is all rate up classes with the +2 or +3 ce.

    It works well. Depending on ce comp, I get 16-18 bonus for each rate up drop and 4-6 bonus for everything else.

    I've been using my A-team to carry me through no problem. Heracles, Waver, and an anti-rate up guest support. It's dependably grabbing 12 rate up bonus and 8 all else.

    Got all me chocolates, just cleaning out shop now.

    I'm grabbing all the Servant CE's, twenty-eight in total, just six more to go for Caster and Berserker.

    Sigh, so I decided to buy some SQ. Turned out I was on my alt account so rip $$$. What makes it even worse is that following this I drew not 1, not 2 but 3 fucking Nero bride and 1x 2030 in a single 10 roll on the wrong account. Salt is real.

    The only silver lining is that I am fairly often on that account when my main is recharging AP, which can take quite some time.

    Great setup. What Mystic Code are you using?

    I've taken to running a servant from the other quest in my front line, it comes without the pro's or con's of weaknesses but gives me a solid baseline. For the most part I'm doing just fine, the rate up for Archers I simply can't do - Every great Lancer has been in the time that I've been saving up (Except for Scathach, who I will never be not salty over.) and besides Cu I really haven't leveled the ones I have.

    Used a 10x for Tamamo, got fuck all.

    Cleared the shop of the things I was lacking in, just want it to be over now so we can move on to KnK

    My lineup is:

    Anti-Rate Up ( Melty )
    Anti-Rate Up ( Melty )
    Rate-Up Support (+5 CE)

    Silver Rate-Up (+5 CE)
    Georgios ( Melty )
    Bronze Rate-Up (+4 CE)

    Unless something goes horrible wrong it's carrying me through pretty handedly.
