Fuck. Apparently half AP was a mistake. They removed it even before the timer ended. Fuckers.

 

No shit? I wondered why it ended early.

Anyone roll well on the gacha? No Jeanne, but Kaleidescope.

 

Not rolling the Jeanne gacha until I get those summoning tickets. If those turn up nothing, I might snap and use the quartz I've been saving up for a servant I really want, instead of Jeanne, who I kinda want.


Anyone else playing the JP version right now? Currently scrounging up saint quartz so I can roll for Caster Nero again. I only got a CE from the first one, but I'm hoping to get lucky.

 

I just need one more fucking snake gem but the drop rate is abysmal.

 

Finally got another snake jewel. Sweet christ that took forever.

 

Man. Those Hearts just don't drop. I got a Snake Jewel. I got a Reverse Dragon Scale. I got 3 Caster Secret Gems. But no heart. Goddamn it.

 

I really wish they would've skipped the Jeanne rate up, and just gone for the Orion event, honestly. Farming for mats does not an interesting game make. At the very least it would be cool if they could switch to the Japanese daily quests.

Over on the JP version, I've managed to collect all the ascension mats for summer Ishtar, so that's nice. I didn't manage to summon twin tail Nero or Saber Fran, but hey - I have a Rin look-a-like now, so I'm pretty much satisfied.

Edit: Rider Ishtar is now fully ascended. Now all that's left is to NP5 her. Can't wait for part 2.

Edit 2: Moon goddess event was announced.

 

Gratz on Ishtar.

Saving FP for Moon Goddess event CE's. Ascended Medusa to 50 since I don't have a better Rider. I plan on throwing Kaleidescope on her and hopefully just AOEing down the 3 Casters, then using Cu and someone's Liz Bathory for Orion.

Event tips

 

Is anyone planning on rolling for Orion? I'm undecided. On one hand, Artemis is cute, and an SSR archer would be useful. On the other hand, Orion is not cute, and I have plans on rolling for Ishtar when she comes out anyway - so I don't want an archer that much. Hmm.

Over on the JP version, I've nearly scraped enough quartz together for another go at the gacha. I want Caster Nero, but I'm willing to settle for a Saber Fran.

 

Gil is all the Archer I need. Bwahahaha. Jon and I got so damn lucky.

 

Honestly, the only servants I absolutely want in my heart of hearts are Ishtar and Jeanne Alter. Like, I am seriously considering dropping money for them when they come around.

Medb, MHX Alter, and Merlin would also be ideal, but I can do without them.

 

Ok, here we go.

Making this list made me realize just how many of the ones that I like are welfare. I'm cool with this.

Gonna give Orion a roll, mostly because I REALLY need a decent Archer, and he'll help with Gawain later.

 

Warning: Maintenance begins at 4AM UST (12 AM EST), AKA 33 minutes from now. It will last 4 hours, after which the Moon Goddess event will begin. (It's actually scheduled for 1 hour before maintenance ends, for which we're getting 4 apologems apparently). Make sure to use up some AP if you were saving it for the Moon Goddess event. 1 AP every five minutes means 48 AP will be generated over a four hour period. Make sure to have 48 AP free before maintenance begins.

 

She isn't Yandere for us Jon. Just Orion. Such is life. Also. Damn you have a Gilgamesh with 4* Event CE. And everyone is gonna either grind the Saber 5AP or the Demon+Saber 30AP. You gonna get so.many FP from this.
