    Apparently I have A-Rank luck when it comes to drops. I got two copies of Moonlight Fest from the 5 AP quest. With the two I already bought from the event store, I now have four. I almost wish I had time to farm 5k dango so I could limit break the thing. Almost. I'm about ready for this event to end. I'm beginning to see dango in my dreams.

    This. I didn't get one CE drop. Can't complain too much though. Got both hearts I wanted, got enough Saber Gems for D'eon and Altera never need them again, got 22 Seeds. But goddman it, those fucking Zerker statues don't drop.

    Nice! Got one early on from the 20, none since.

    Finished with the store completely, plus about 1 mil QP. Swapped to the 30 when I got the 5k CE, even got 3 hearts out of it by the end.

    I'm content, but so glad this event is over.

    How the flying fuck did you grind enough for the 5k CE. Levelups?

    Nah, when I said I got the CE fairly early I mean day one. For about 95 percent of the event I was getting +16, so 17+17+18 per 5 AP when they were all regular dango. On average about 32 dango per mission when you factor in the 2 to 1 ratio of special dango to regular drops. And I think I missed less than 10 AP total from sleeping past my AP limit.

    If it wasn't for a literal last minute level up (I leveled twice the whole event) it would have come down to my last 30 mission to get the final exp from the store.

    I was fucking determined to get the 5k because my dream team has assassin Shiki and Scathach, making it a great CE for a quick team.

    I also only did the 30 AP mission maybe 6 times the entire event, most of them today. I did the 5AP mission non-stop from the beginning.

    I think it was something like 13,500 to clear the shop. I did the math on day one. Max AP per day is 288, so ((288×7)÷5)×32 = 12,902. Couple of levels or apples and I was set, just couldn't waste AP.

    Damn man.

    I couldn't get the 5k CE and I have about 9 HP Fou's left that I don't care too much about.

    You got three hearts in 6 runs? That's some ridiculous luck.

    Im pretty happy about it. Probably balanced out with getting exactly two 4* CE's between two 10x rolls.

    Speaking of, did any of us that rolled on Orion actually get him?

    @Jon thanks for the reminder. Totally forgot

    --- Post automerged ---

    Phone just perma-died.

    Of course my bind code is stored in my notes... on my phone.

    Gonna have to go through account recovery tomorrow unless I can pull everything from the phone when I get it replaced.

    I have nightmares like that.

    My bind code is written down on an old notepad in a draw.

    Right? If I lost this account right after all that grinding... I think I'd just be done.

    Crisis averted though. Phone is still fucked for now, but I somehow got it to turn and stay on so long as it's plugged in. Battery is clearly shot since it won't go above 0%.

    Everything is backed up, and I have my code. Which is now written down.

    So, still casually playing this from time to time, although dumped a bit more time the last two days into this.

    Here are my current Servants that I am somewhat invested in, am grateful for advice/scorn for fucking things up:

    Saber Lily Lvl 40 with HP 6671, ATK 4904, 2/1/-, Bond 5/10
    Lancer Chu Chulain lvl 30, HP 5,638, ATK 3931, 2/1/-, Bond 1/10
    Assassin Stheno lvl 27, HP: 5056, ATK 4010, 1/-/-, Bond 2/10
    Archer Orion lvl 25, HP 6182, ATK 4739, 2/-/-, Bond 1/10
    Caster Medea lvl 21, HP 3070, ATK 2701, 1/-/-, Bond 1/10
    Rider Saint Martha lvl 16, HP 4214, ATK 2647, 1/-/-, Bond 2/10
    Story Servant lvl 20, HP4177, ATK 2881, 2/2/-, Bond 1/5
    Rider Medusa lvl 12, HP 3239, ATK 2590, 1/-/-, Bond 0/10 but i did better her NP


    Not really sure which heroes to stick with, tbh. Still want Saber but unlikely to get her at any point. No idea how i was lucky enough to get the 5 star hero that is Orion. Also don't have a berserker yet, or rather, have a few 3 star berserkers but not really liking any of them. Kinda hoping for one of the two classic berserkers.

    So yeah, that's my current state

    From what I've seen, Saber Lily is pretty much a 3 star servant that's just more expensive. Cu Chulain, if you level him, can be pretty damn tanky (Guts, Evade for 3 turns etc). A lot of the 3 star servants can function pretty damn well as people mentioned, but you can probably compensate for the ones you're lacking via Support Servants. (Strange's Saber is love. Never doubt it.)

    I think, if I remember right, you can effectively use Martha as a pretty effective debuffer thanks to her having 3 arts cards, healing and an NP that attacks all and ruins their defence.

    Is the next expected update going to be Okeanos, or will it be another event?

    @KHAAAAAAAN!! Gratz on Gil!

    Stheno and Lily are the two that really stick out negatively there.

    Lily will work as a Saber for now, but she's not great. As Simplicity said, you're basically getting a 3* but at the cost of a 4*. Just use her until you get another 4* or 5*.

    Stheno has decent stats... but her NP is situational as hell, and unreliable unless it's at rank 5.

    Cu is an absolute beast. If I didn't adore Scathach, I'd be really tempted to take him to 100.

    Honestly? You're doing just fine.

    The best thing I've read so far for this game was aguide on Grails/Palingenesis, great guide telling you all about which servants were the best to grail, which progression curves to look for, which 3* and below servants were the best to take to 100, etc.

    But at the very end of the guide the guy basically said,
