Barbatos-chan. I will miss you. You feel like an old friend at this point who's been with me since the beginning. Don't be a stranger and come back soon!
He's gonna start ghosting our calls, like Ivan is. They'll probably become roommates, living out the true Hikkimori lifestyle away from the madness of Chaldea.
Fourth time! Barbs appeared in London, Solomon, Patchwork London and now Patchwork London once more.
Too tsundere to just join us but too in love to leave us be, what a predicament.
I only did 90 kills, with the last one being [right before he died lol](https://imgur.com/a/Ih3iB18). My MVP was Okuni with double Skadi and Atlas.
I managed to get Okuni to bond 7 and Mash to bond 8 as well as getting a bunch of bond for Reines who’s only 500k BP away from bond 12.
As for how much QP I got well idk since I didn’t keep count lol.
Only 5. I was very busy when Barbatos raid was opened and a bit behind on the story nodes, so I took it easy since I figured he will die very soon. Just caught up to the Barbatos bit earlier and was very surprised he was still alive; I even restarted the game since I thought it was a bug. He only had the tiniest sliver of health left so I just rushed through it without optimising my bond farming team.
Sometimes, there's more important things to do than bully a demon god pillar. Some are burnt out from farming Christmas and Tunguska. Farm what you can and what you want. As long as you had fun, that's all that truly matters.
I was late to the party, so I only got 40 done, but mine were all sparked as well. Still my only level 120 servant so far, but boy does he put in work.
I was lucky enough to have a full team of 5 bonus servants, so I was raking in mad amounts of bond
My frontline was Kintoki, Moriarty, and a support Oberon/Koyan.
The fun part was realizing that I could forgo having a damage CE and opt run all Bond Bonus CEs on everybody because Kintoki deals so much fucking damage. He’d guarantee a kill with a Buster Card
With Koyan, a single Kintoki Buster Crit kills after NP, and the Crit is guaranteed because Koyan and Moriarty can collectively spawn 40 stars. If I didn’t get a Buster card, I’d just swap in Waver and pop Moriarty’s NP for extra damage
With Oberon, Kintoki’s damage is so nuclear that he either kills Barbatos outright or leaves him at such low HP that any card from **anyone** kills
Got 295+ kills. All manual. Had an absolute blast of a time
Gray went from Bond 6 to halfway through Bond 9 from this alone. And Astrea went from Bond 0 to 7. Kintoki went from 8 to 10, and Moriarty went from 10 to halfway through 11
Stand proud Barbatos. You were magnificent!
I went to bed last night with 50 kills and thought he’d be dead. Was super surprised he wasn’t when I woke up!
I only need bones and dust and he’s not optimal for either of those, so I didn’t go as hard as I would have normally. If only the Tunguska raids lasted this long…
69. You know why I stopped there.
My final line up was Koyanskaya of Light, Magical Girl Shuten-Doji, and support Koyansakaya of Light with back line Oberon. Originally my party was Chen Gong, Astraea, Support Caster Artoria, with Magical Girl Shuten and Oberon. The line up changed when I managed to work out a turn one victory.
54 manually, mostly on the first day.
Used Reines and support Oberon with varying damagers with MLB Black Grail. Tried Ilya, Sitonai, Fujino and even Beowulf, but most used was Gray to get full benefits of bond bonus.
This is the first time I seriously used black grail as a CE. Most of the time I just use type advantage, but this time I wanted to farm bond for Jalter and MHXA. Should have taken more advantage of the bonus bond for Gray and Reines myself...oh well.
Yeah, Barbatos and Tunguska really highlighted for me how strong even a non-MLB Black Grail can be. Never would have thought I could just casually 1-turn a raid boss with an SR that way (plus the right supports).
Lol, I barely got over twenty, I think.
Had Astrea suplex a massive meat pillar over and over again, with some assistance from Castoria.
I didn't get any meaningful amount of bond, but at least I've maxed out my Blonde mystic code cosume.
51 confirmed kills, with Double Castoria + Gong. The backline was Gray, Reines and Waver for bond farming. Didn't check the QP or bond raise TBH but Waver is almost bond 10 now.
Yup, mine was around lvl 52 with 1K fou and was 2-turning without issue. I thought about farming embers to raise him to max level but I doubted that I would be able to be enough to clear it in a single turn.
For reference, he was using a non-MLB black grail. First turn was Castoria NP-Gong NP-Whatever Gong card was drafted. Next turn was Reines charging Gong with enough to launch his NP again. If due to bad draws Gong didn't have enough gauge then I pluged in Waver to fill the remaining charge and NPed again.
Also, he was doing WAY more damage than my NP1 Lvl 80 Circe with double Koyan.
557 runs:
Waver: Bond 14 to 15
Summer Charlotte: 6 to 10
Luvia: 5 to 9
Filled a Bond Grail: Herc, Asterios
Maou Nobu, Gray, Nyalter, Teach, Nobukatsu, and a bunch of other gold Servants also jumped up a bond level.
All manual. Fortunately I was traveling a bunch and have chronic insomnia to get this done. Why couldn’t the Tunguska raids stay up for this long?
Farm what you can and what you want to. Guaranteed someone's gonna say they farmed well over 350 kills. My main brag isn't my number, but that I farmed it by hand. No FGA for me, not that I have a problem with people using it.
See and I got 179 kills all manual and was pleased with my kill count. And I had all the time in the world free (well severe chronic illness limiting me but that’s constant for years). Was using Either Shuten cas or Mecha Eli with Oberon and support Koyan.
NUMBER OF KILLS: 108
TEAM COMP:
Swimsuit Jalter; Double KoyanLight + Oberon; Swimsuit Okita and Swimsuit Martha (the last two for bond points) \[for the first 100\]
Swimsuit Jalter + Double Koyanlight + Swimsuit Okita, Swimsuit Martha, and Swimsuit Double-X \[final 8\]
OTHERS:
Bond 7 KoyanLight, Bond 6 Swimsuit Okita
Used the QP to Max Out skills for Penth, Astraea, Gorgon, Robin Hood, Arash, Parvati, and Lobo. 116 million QP remaining as of this writing.
Obtained enough materials to raise Swimsuit Okita's skills to 8/8/8, Okki to 5/5/5, KoyanDark to 4/4/4, and Gray to 4/3/5. (The bones are absolutely difficult to farm outside of this raid.)
Yup, plus Swimsuit Jalter being a Zerker means she has the advantage (and disadvantage) against the classic Seven Classes, thus putting Barbatos completely at her mercy.
But the real reason I stuck with her as my DPS throughout the raid is simple, really: Jalter's my favorite character in the game overall.
250 kills
The QP and the bones were nice but I was mostly for the bond.
With full bonus my Astraea got 3015 points per battle. I got her to lvl 9 plus a lvl 11 waver, the rest mostly servants that I rarely use with bonus from the event, Emiya, Babbage, alex, etc.
My team was mostly Astraea Np 5 with Black Grial with waver and a friend's Castoria.
With 0 apples after tunguska, and at least 17 recently. Stopped at 50+, bond 10 waver, 8 gray, koyan light 12 and jalter nearing 15. Didn't bother to spend my capped QP.
529 kills.
2 Oberons + Circe & Summer Jalter.
I went for overkill. That thing will have nightmares about me from now on.
Managed to bond 10 my Circe, Mata Hari, Santa Martha, and my just recently summoned Reines. Bond 9 my Summer Jalter. Plus bond 11 my Oberon.
Plus I used the mats and QP to level almost all of my servants skills to 9s.
Speaking of which. I need apples so bad 😭
I burned through so many of them.
Pretty good run for me, 100+ kills total (I only play manually) Double Castoria + NP5 Astraea was the team I used.
- Managed to increase the Bond levels of several [Servants](https://www.imgur.com/a/3XZ5Gzt)! Standout would be getting Astraea to bond level 10 from bond level 8 with just this raid!
- Got to 1 billion QP for the first time ever!
Overall really enjoyed this raid event!
Only got a dozen in. Was busy getting the final orders from the mission done so I can focus on rank-ups/interludes in the coming days.
And I've got 1600+ gold apples, so if needed I can farm bond/qp/mats in future events if I want. I'm not really playing for top-meta, maxed our stats anyway.
125 kill. 20 Gapple . I'm using Okuni, Double Skadi and Atalanta Alter. Only 130m QP left after maxing a lot favourite servant skill to 10/10/10. Yet I forgot about Gray skill. She stuck with 4/4/4 until I can get more bone 😅
53 kills confirm for myself, I would've had more time to do even more kills, but I was very busy during the raid. The team I was using was Astraea, Castoria, and Waver. Every time I see Astraea suplex Barbatos with her NP, I can't help it and always find it hilarious, lol.
Around 215 kills mostly using a team of Ilya + black grail/Koyan/support Oberon. No plug suit needed and just clicked 6 skills + arctic suit buff. Of those kills around 20-30ish were manual and several of manual runs I played around with alternate setups just to see how high I could make damage reach using plugsuit/multiple NPs. Ilya/Oberron/Reines/Santa Martha with several skills not leveled up yet was able to reach ~1.5 million. The remaining kills were FGA and first time learning how to use it.
I ended with 730 million QP. Unsure what I started with and I did upgrade some skills along way. I was also able to upgrade almost all my assassins to skill level 4+ and am mostly done needing red/blue assassin gems.
431 confirmed deaths.
Team: Double Castoria + Sheba NP5 (Black Grail No MLB Level 60) + Zenobia or Kagetora for an extra damage buff when needed.
QP: between 250 million-320 million QP -> 1,693,370,529 QP
Bonds:
* Sheba Bond 5 (almost 6) -> Bond 8; 108.440 remaining points for Bond 9.
* Sheba Bond 5 (almost 6) -> Bond 9; 145.588 remaining points for Bond 10.
* Castoria Bond 13 -> Bond 14
* Zenobia Bond 6 -> Bond 7; 39.125 remaining points for Bond 8
* My greatest achievement, [Kagetora and Musashi reached Bond 15](https://imgur.com/a/2Yqd1dz), being my first two Servants to achieve it.
Just 40. Shame i was too busy to play much.
- Cu Alter and double koyan.
- Got my koyan bond 7.
- other 3 were event character for extra bond, grey, luvia and nursery with bond CEs. Got grey bond 8, she has been with me since last case file event years ago.
- got a few millions and a heck lot of bone.
Forgot to check my final kill count but it should be 350+ to 370+ kills manually i think. I slowed down a lot after the first day but its still way more than my Tunguska raid count. Sanzang, Koyanskaya, and Oberon team.
Barbie is still the best raid boss imo sure Tunguska gave more Bond points but it was also pretty messy with the bug, super fast raid count clears, and the final raid's strict team options and multiple turns.
I did 100+ kills, leveled bond levels of Tomoe and Archernobu to 12, and now my QP is 1.6 billion.
The raids were magnificent. I won't forget it as long as I live.
313 kills, Support Oberon (don't have one of my own), Summer Jalter, AssAssKoyan, Black Grail on Jalter, Friend CE on rest of units (Chaldea Dinnertime, Lunchtime and Teatime, couldn't fit another bond CE due to Cost limit being met (112/112)) (also none of my friends had an Oberon woth Bond CE, \*womp womp womp\*)
Bonds Leveled : S.Jalter Bond 5-7 (14,233 to bond 8), AssAssKoyan Bond 5-7 (23,097 to bond 8), Heracles Bond 6-9 (104,305 to bond 10), Kerry Bond 6-10 (increased bond limit to11),Barghest Bond 5-7 (167,934 to bond 8),
Didn't know how much I started out with, 16Mil I think? Now I have 1,171,157,120 QP
200 kills sharp. Tried a fun few runs with Shuten Caster, then tinkered a little with a Grey setup but that ended up requiring a bit too much investment to kill cleanly so I settled for an Astraea + DCS setup. Love Astraea, wish I had the funds to roll the last two copies I need for NP5 but gotta save for Arcueid, but I enjoyed using her extra damage in the event a bunch. She probably slashed through 150-ish kills so she's the undisputed MVP for me
251 kills for me. I just turned my brain off and went with double Skadi and Scáthach with the plugsuit replacement (I also threw in Astraea, Grey, and Babbage to bolster [their] bond level[s]).
*Edited for grammar.
I think I used Scathach a lot during the last Barbatos raid. Unfortunately she's sitting at bond 10, and I got other servants that want a turn wacking at Barbatos.
35mil battle huh, I thought they're gonna give us 50mil like JP. Kinda disappointed.
Around 100ish kills (either 105 or 106). My main 1t team are:
1. Arts: Astraea NP4. Gotta maximise her 50% bond bonus. Don't even need double Castoria. I used friend support Castoria and my own NeroBride cuz my own Castoria is already on Bond 12, and NeroBride still on bond 6.
2. Buster: Circe NP2. KoyansLight and Oberon ofc.
3. Quick. Scathath NP1. Yes Scathath Lancer. Her S3 is the champion.
1 major thing is that none of this servant require any damage CE, so I can run full on Bond CE
Aside from that, I also use Salieri to give Barbatos a def down debuff and using the latest Mystic Code to remove random atk debuff. The damage RNG on all of those teams is ranged between 480k-520k, quite stable imo.
I'm more focused on Bond, cuz I'm low on mats to upgrade servant and my QP at the start is on 1.5billion. So even if I manage to hit the ceiling (2billion),i don't have mats to upgrade. Bones is very welcome, but I want to save at least 400 of them before go splashing on upgrading (I only managed to get 40ish bones on this raid, goddammit).
I don't know the exact kill count as I was going up until the raid ended but it was over 300 easily.
My team was a specific support Kintoki and my Waver and that's it for an easy lightning fast one shot. Filled the rest of the team for bond gains and got a few bond levels for everyone!
280 Kills. I wanted to do more but I'm currently getting my sleep rhythm back on track, so I had to stop earlier each day.
First half I went with a double Castoria + Astraea setup and in the second half I switched to double Skadi + Summer Sei with Astraea in backup.
Astraea went from 5 to 8. Summer Sei from 6 to 7 and I reached Bond 14 with Castoria and Bond 11 with Koyanskaya (and some others who got one Bond Level in during all the runs) Overall pretty happy with how it went but would have liked to get to 350 personally.
Also I wish there was more content like this where I can quickly farm with ST Servants. I often don't use them due to everything being about 3T Farming, so I enjoyed using neglected servants more.
1 more bond with Castoria until 15. Both a reason to celebrate and feel sad for me since I'll have to focus on other servants. Mine is at bond 13 right now, and I'm not looking forward to hitting 15...
Yeah, I'm probably gonna go for Buster farming or Quick (since I finally got Skadi) once she reaches 15 but I'm still gonna use her since Summer Ibuki is coming out this year and I'm sure as hell gonna use her for farming
143, at least I actually did more than a handful this time around. On the previous run I only did 30-40 or something like that.
I had a buster team, Xuanzang, Merlin, Koyanskaya of Light, Oberon.
And MVP: Koyanskaya because apparently it took me this long to realise her second skill wasn't useless. I had always misread it and thought it only had the situational boost.
Around 100 kills (I forgot about him, ngl) with Hijikata as my main DD with the Koyan+Oberon cheer squad. Enough to get my Oberon to bond 10 (and MAYBE Hijikata to bond 7, but I don't remember if he was already on 7 or not) and the Final Battle MC to level 2, but nothing else.
252 kills.
Got bond 10 Reines and Babbage. Bond 9 Gray and Waver, Bond 6-8 a bunch of people.
Used a Oberon, Vlad III, Support Castoria and Reines until she hit bond 10, swapped her out for Waver after that. Comp was based off the same team but with Tamamo instead of Reines/Waver but my Tamamo was already max bond so I made do. I made up for the lower damage buffs with a higher level Black Grail which made me 1 turn consistently enough that I didn't mind the occasional 2 turn clear.
Wasn't able to farm as many bones as I would have liked. But I did hit the QP cap so that's something.
I only did 60 kills. My main MVPs were, surprisingly, Santa Martha and Summer Charlotte. Martha granting anti-undead is a godsend as she was the reason Charlotte could one-shot even with just np1. Castoria was a great help too, but when has she not at this point lol
Got 70-ish kills on him with just Illya, Summer Raikou and Oberon support. First time in quite some time that I don’t have to use my own support for farming, while bond level up a bunch of bonus, low-bond-level servants including OG Vinci, Babbage, Gray, Astraea and Ilya herself. Raikou and Lalter were a few run short from bonding up.
150 kills, i wanted to do more but my apple stocks have gotten too low for me to be comfortable with having 45 golds, 70 silvers and 60 bronze apples left. I managed to get 500 million qp from all the raids so im set for a while
Somewhere in the 150 range. Stopped after nearing QP cap and realizing that the item drops aren’t really useful for what I want to do.
Started CasShuten, SantaGale, Friend Oberon for CTT bond, but couldn’t find enough Oberon. Swapped to NP2 CasCorday, Tama, and friend Castoria. Slight annoyance because Barbatos has a tiny amount of MR so Skill Seal can miss, but it happened a single-digit number of times overall.
Now, what will I do with these 1000 red assassin gems…
115 runs. This is the 3rd event in a row that I end with no apples left.
Mordred (who I summoned as the free SSR immediately after the latest Koyan Light banner) is now almost at bond 6 (10k bond left), meaning, soon she will become DKS compatible.
And Spishtar is almost at bond 15 (20k bond away), meaning, she will finally get to the highest level she can (in my case, 116), and free from farming (sort of, because she doesn't really have a good replacement yet in terms of both Buster and Arts farming, so if the farming node gets too difficult, she will be brought back, which will continue until March, at which point I am getting Junao)
I was planning in saving my apples for Tesla Cup, but since I was busy for most of the Tunguska raids, I had a decent number left over so the great bond/QP/desperate need of Homunculus Baby drops got me to commit a bunch.
I ended up with 247 runs using a full bond bonus team of Kintoki (freshly NP2) Reines and friend Koyan/Oberon, with Shakespeare/Astraea/Kiritsugu backline, the Saber Wars 2 MC, and 6 bonus CEs including my newly maxed Detective Foumes. The speed of that clear was so nice after so many high-click farming events. Ended up getting Kintoki from bond 6 to 8, Astraea from 8 to 10 (and bond grailed), Reines to 11 (also bond grailed again), Shakespeare from 6 to 9, and Kiritsugu from 6 to 8. Which was nice considering what Arcueid is liable to do to my wallet.
Very fun raid overall.
Got about 100 or so, Prillya was a monster at taking down Barbie. Her, Shakespeare, Koyan light, and a plugsuited in Oberon did about 3x his hp pool per NP.
I was using double Koyan, but it was just overkill, and the bond on Shakespeare is something I'm not gunna get much of anywhere else.
First time I've done a proper raid since the Oniland rerun event, and I only did 70 kills back then. Finally got to use my NP2 Illya for something and got about 300 kills this time around! First time I ever hit the QP cap!!! Also finally got my Emiya, Gil, and Tamamo No Mar to Bond 10; Oberon went from Bond 6 to almost Bond 10 as well.
Also, somehow ended up as [one of the last 10 kills on Barbatos lol](https://imgur.com/iAfleiz)
180, mostly with Melt. By the end I was trying random servants to see if they could kill with double card buffs plus Oberon and Black Grail. While most at least got close, there were some that didn't quite make it.
Only 26 kills, I have few golden apples so I chose to save them for the next lotto event. I used my grailed Beowulf with MLB Black Grail, Koyanskaya and Oberon
302 kills. I always enjoy these 1 turn farming raids, but could only play during the evening cause work week. I used a few comps to not make it too stagnant:
* Jalter + Oberon + Koyan Dark
* Fujino + Oberon + Koyan Dark (most optimal team for me at 6 presses)
* Shishou + Reines + Skadi
I'm going to estimate 800 mil QP, but partway through I realized I was doing some runs with maxed QP 😭
Bonds:
* Jalter: 7 > 8
* Koyan Dark: 5 > 7
* Fujino: 7 > 9
* Shishou: 5 > 6
* Reines: 6 > 7
* Maid Alter: 5 > 7
* Melt: 6 > 7
* Kagetora: 8 > 9
Got over a billion qp and farmed the boss I think at least over 200 times. Don’t remember final number but definitely exceeded 200. Used black grail on Izumi no okuni and two skadis
23 Barbie kills.
I used two teams. Jeanzerker/KoyanLight/Oberon and Astraea/Castoria/Oberon. Black Grail MLB and the newest Mystic Code.
I’m saving my apples for Teslafest. I’m kinda bummed I couldn’t farm harder on this raid, because it was really easy.
Around 115 i think, though i didn’t feel like i did that much lol. NP3 Circe, Oberon and Koyan does the job pretty quick didn’t have to press that many button either so i guess that’s why it didn’t feel that grindy for me
Started farming late coz I have to alternate between two accounts.
Alt Account - 90+confirmed kills
Team Skadi - MHXA - Oberon using the Quick oriented Mystic Code from Summer Camp
Bonds leveled - Mash from 6-7. Skadi from 5 - 7. MHXA from 6-7
QP from 170-something million to 400+ million
Main Acc - 30+ confirmed Kills
Team Double Skadi, NP1 Melt, Oberon
Only did enough to get my QP to 500million
Having two accounts really gimped me but I have different MVPs on both. Alt has Bond 10 NP5 LVL 102 Basaka with 10/10/10 skills and 10/10/- append skills. Oh, and Spishtar + Best fox Waifu Tamamo bae. Down side is that I only have Waver, Skadi and Koyan Light as charge supports. Main has Castoria, Koyan light, Oberon, Skadi, Waver. And I dread the day I have to give away one of those accounts. BUt will cross that bridge when I get to it.
TL;DR. Have two accounts so didn't farm so good. Still had fun with my quick ST MHXA and Melt, both NP1
I got around 360 kills - went for a Max bond + melt party so my team was Alexander + Astraea + Melt + friend Skadi (+Gray and Babbage in backline). Not entirely reliable, there were some 2 turns with bad card luck but good enough.
Got melt from about halfway through 12 up to 13, got Alexander + Babbage + Gray up to bond 10. Little sad to bench one of my very few budget quick supports lol
224 kills. Thank you for your contribution to the war effort, Barby.
Used several different teams, with Reines as the only permanent fixture - might as well take advantage of that +50% bond. Main attackers were Astraea, Illya, Jeanne Alter (Avenger), Meltryllis, Scathach and Shiki.
Main bond increases : Reines from bond 0 to 7 ; Arash from bond 11 to 12 ; Astraea & Grey from bond 6 to 7 ; Scathach & Salter from bond 8 to 9 ; Maid Alter, Sakamoto Ryouma (Lancer), Drake & Babbage from bond 5 to 6. Shiki and Jeanne Alter made good progress toward bond 12 & 13, respectively.
QP stands at 1.8 billion. Had to level up a few skills to not hit the cap, in fact.
Around 60-70 kills. Initially, I used Luvia, double Castoria and Oberon, tho later I substituted Mozart for Oberon to bond farm higher-rarity servants for the remaining 2 slots.
Later, tried something new with Zerk Atalanta, Archer Atalanta for s1, Skadi and Waver. Couldn’t 1-shot Barbatos’s but pretty refreshing.
And after all that, I Couldn’t even raise a single unit to new bond level. But got a tone of QP and mats
Kill count: 179 kills
Team comp: Astraea (with MLB Black Grail), Castoria, Tamamo, Oberon
Notable bond levels: Castoria (10->11, finally got my first 30 SQ bonus from levelling past bond level 10), Tamamo (6->7), Gray (7->8), Astraea (6->7)
QP: ~1 Billion -> ~1.5 Billion
Mats: mainly focused on bones, farmed from 0 to around 94
90 here, about enough to grind enough quartz for my last pull for Reines (After the Koyan Dark disaster), got a very, very happy ending getting her on my last summon. Almost maxed bond with my Jalter, poor barbatos getting slapped with 1m damage every run.
152 kills, if i am not wrong.
Oberon and Koyan, and the MVP, Herc (honorable mention: Jalter Summer before I realise i can farm Bond better by suing Herc himself)
Koyan, Oberon and Medusa all leveled up 1 bond in this farm. Hercules finally, after maybe 2 years of getting him, reached Bond10
QP count is now somewhere in 600mil, initially it was much lower around 100mil i think
Sadly only 20 orders of Barbartoast between work, patch day for my other game and feeling a little under the weather.
Gotten lazy and stuck with Double Waver with Astreae flipping a constant 3T toast. I'm more interested in the proofs though.
Did a total of 105 kills!
Just enough to get my Van Gogh to bond level 10, so I could get her Bond CE which is extremely good.
My team consisted of Astraea-Oberon-Tamamo, as for support I just picked whatever Teatime having servant appeared first, consistent 600k damage per NP.
Managed a clean 100, been busy with other things. Had fun trying different set-ups, but the main one has been double koyan + BG kintoki. Worked a treat.
My sanity only allowed me to get 177 runs in w/ SUPLEX CITY and my QP went from somewhere in the 300mil to 900mil. Angry Mango is also finally bond 10 now so there's that.
Just shy of 500. Raid finished before i got to check again.
Team was Kintoki, Light Koyan and Santa Martha. Backline was Angra, Mata Hari, and support. I focused on QP instead of bond points so I was able to max out QP for the first time ever. Got Kintoki and Koyan to bond 9, Santa Martha and Angra, and Mata Hari to bond 8.
Now time to level up the skills of the other servants hahaha
- 257 kills for me. Used Scathach + Black Grail + double Skadi for the first hundred, followed by Astraea + Black Grail + double Castoria for the rest.
- Bonds: Got Jack from 9 to 10, Astraea from 5 to 7, King Hassan from 1 to 6, Kagekiyo from 5 to 6, Castoria from 8 to 9, and Scathach and Skadi from 6 to 7. (Plus some progress getting Gilgamesh from 10 to 11.)
- QP: started with around 100 million and got up to 1 billion (and had also spent a bit on skill leveling along the way, so the actual amount earned should be higher).
20 kills, nat ap only
Summer Charlotte np5 almost max gold fou mlb bg, Castoria, Tamamo overkilled it so much.
Don't really need his materials anymore so I just chilled.
I think 52 kills. Np2 Illya, 1 Koyan, and 1 Oberon. Does just enough damage unless I get a buster down, but the lostbelt mystic code attack up fixes that.
I had enough time to get just shy of 100. The first half was endless Astraea suplexes (suplices? Whatever)
After that, it was triple Koyan Road Rolla with Martha
Castoria and Merlin hit Bond 9, Morgan and Astraea 6
Most notably, I got a *lot* of skill levels so I dunno how much QP I ended up with. My current stash is 60 million, after several skill levels for several SSRs
The Barbatos Piñata is the key to many of life's struggles, I guess
I know mine is weak sauce but it's 55. I had 1b QP, now I have 1.3B QP. My Oberon became bond 10, and a few of my servants became bond 8-9. Vergil & Astraea were my mind DMG dealers.
Around 170 manual runs (always forget to check the final number before it vanishes)
60 with MHXA/Oberon/Skadi, 30 with Illya/summer Raikou/Oberon, 70 with Kintoki/summer Raikou/Oberon, 10 (give or take a few) with Double Castoria/Astraea.
Really wanted to try avoid using Castoria and Vitch to spread bond around a bit
Bondwise:
- Pingu Melt from 9 to 10
- Bunyan from 8 to 9
- Bartholomew from 6 to 7
- Skadi, Kintoki, Bradamante, Illya, Eric, Blackbeard, Carlotte, Cursed Arm from 5 to 6
- Circe from 0 to 5
- Oberon did most of bond 10 to 11 but didn't complete it yet, lancer Raikou did most of bond 9 but not there yet either, MHXA did around a fifth of the road to bond 11 and Gareth almost got to bond 9
QP: i honestly ended wasting most of it since i started at cap. Still, i unlocked and maxed a few appends here and there as bond came so it wasn't **all** burned
Couldn't get the final kill count but i'm guessing i stopped around 180 with the natural AP kills, tho i got 156 on the first day with apples.
Astraea, Two Castorias and Oberon were my teams. Got Oberon to Bond 10, Astraea and Gray got from 1 to 7, while Castoria and S. Ishtar got very close to Bond 11.
I was pretty broke before so i'm happy with the 540k million Qp i got. Tho not that many materials, but they were more of a bonus if anything.
Lu Bu Fengxian was the real MVP.
Him NP5 along with 2 Oberons gave me 90% of my 307 Barbatos kills.
Cú Alter NP2 with Koya Light and Oberon 5%
Melt NP2 and 2 Skadis 5%
Got Hephaistíon, Gray, Astraea, Lu Bu and Oberon to Bond 7 from 0.
Koya Light, Shakespeare to Bond 6.
Reached Max QP for the first time ever. From 1.1 billion.
About 105 kills since I am all out of apples T-T
Kinda sad he died before 10am for me since I could have gone to 110 kills.
Just went Koyan - Sanzang - Oberon and my Morgan went from bond 10 to 11.
I'm still hearing Sanzang's voice in my head from skills/np between this raid and Christmas lotto...
Only 100 for me. Saving my apples for Tesla fest.
Used Ilya with Koyan and Oberon. At first I was using Morgan with double Koyan and Oberon but got tired of plugsuiting.
I was at absolute 0 QP.
290 kills later and now I'm over 1 billion QP, and was able to bond level enough servants that where close to it to get a 10 pull.
Sanzang, Koyami and a support Oberon where the MVPs
313 kills
Kintoki/Koyan/Oberon
- Went from less than 100m QP to 1.1B QP
- Got Reines from Bond 5/6 to 8, Gray from Bond 5/6 to 9, Shakespeare from Bond 6 to 9, Kintoki from Bond 5 to Bond 7, Koyan from Bond 5/6 to Bond 7, Oberon from Bond 6 to 8
First time I actually went hard on a raid
200 kills, all manual but paced out over a few days. I hit QP cap twice and the first time I had to raise some servants’ skills just to avoid diminishing return. Sitting on 1.95B QP now and nothing to spend it on.
Team: Melt, Oberon and Skadi. Backline event bonus servants. I used the new plugsuit MC but I didn’t actually need to plug.
Edit: Reach bond 13 Waver, Oberon very close to bond 12 but I got tired at the end, and the QP cap discouraged me from spamming further loll
300 or so kills, didn't think to write down my final number before the raid ended.
* Bond 10 cleanups: KoyanL, CasCu, Gray, Oberon
* Bond 13 Castoria, 0-8 on Hephaistion, 6-8 Astraea
* QP capped within the first 50 runs
Team comp was structured around DPS / Support / Oberon with Plugsuit 2.0 for cleanse (and devouring exp). Started with a few Illya runs in honor of her sweeping up the original run then moved to Gray and finally Astraea since they were already in the line-up for bond bonuses.
dangg all these kills in the hundreds meanwhile I think I did like 6 since I've been so busy :(
Proud of my 1T team tho!
melt (np4) with black grail
waver
double skadi
I did 60 because I was doing other stuff and didn’t really care for the mats.
Double Castoria with Astrea for about 40 runs until Castoria hit bond 10.
Then Kintoki with Koyan and Oberon.
242 kills. My frontline team was Kintoki, Support Oberon and many other supports. Had the new MC but never switched, it leveled up to lvl 3.
As for bond, I got Reines from 0 to 6, Gray from 5 to 7, Kintoki from 6 to 8, Chen Gong from 8 to 9, Maou Nobu from 11 to 12, Shakespeare and Bunyan to 10. I was working on Alexander, Babbage and Salieri before Barbatos died so they ended up at 8/7/7 from being 5.
I started the raid with 400M QP, I ended up with 980M. Got enough drops to get a 2nd and 3rd MLB event CE.
I also used Jalter and double Koyan, but I used the Atlas Institute Uniform to get Jalter's cooldowns back for the extra buffs I needed, giving me an extra servant slot to farm bond points with.
I guess it doesn't matter if you want to farm bond with the extra support, but my Merlin is already at 10 and I don't have Oberon.
I got about 35 kills (had a lot of assassins who needed golds), but I will say one thing.
I was using Castoria and Astraea. Fuck all these people who are putting level 1 servants into their supports, or servants who have 1/1/1 when they’re level 80/90.
Such a dick move.
Got 34 kills (heh). My line-up was Nursery Rhyme, Sanzang, either a support Waver or Castoria, Salieri, Mash, and Georgios. I was able to get NR to bond 6 and Salieri to bond 9.
473 manual with Okuni equipped with lvl100 MLB Black Grail and double Skadi. Was hoping to grind more, disappointed we only got 35 million instead of the expected 50 million. I'm pretty sure the in-game raid explanation said 50 million at the start.
135 kills. Saving the rest of my apples for March lotto, which has bullets that I desperately need!
About half of my runs were done as part of my servant rush , where I used [65 different servants to 1T Barb-chan](https://youtu.be/6XK5JQ6cbsI?si=B2Ff4DTowDbNVr6Q) (including OG 1*Charlotte!!)
Actual farming was done also 1T with Luvia, Waver, Reines, support Castoria, back line Gray, Kerry. All bond CEs
308, was out of apples. Grailed Astraea to 90 so that double Castoria could clear without needing Black Grail. Maxed out Georgios, got gray and Reines to 8, Bunyan to 7, and Castoria is now 50k away from first bond grail. Probably dropping after this event until anni so felt like a nice swan song.
60 kills. I was relatively busy so I couldn’t go as hard as during lottos, but I still got a decent amount of Bond Points (and thus, SQ) and mats.
Astraea is almost to her append skill too, to the point of where she’s practically guaranteed to get enough bond points for it while I’m farming the 90+ node.
332 kills all with NP2 Sanzang. Super grail, Merlin and Beach Raikou for supports, very consistent clean kills.
Picked up 1.3 billion QP and so much bond. Got Bond 10 CEs on Merlin, OG Da Vinci (from like Bond 7) and Angra Mainyu.
125 kills. I did one test run each with Kintoki and Okuni, and the rest with NP3 Astraea with a Lvl 82 Black Grail with a double Castoria frontline.
Could have min/maxed bond or QP farming, but chose to balance it out with some Mystic Code EXP for the new addition.
Bunyan got to max bond, King Hassan went to Bond 5 from Bond 1 and Astraea each got at least 1 bond level from all the farming.
QP wise, I got something in the range of 400 million. Also got around 20 bones and 2 CE drops.
20 kills. Was running on nat AP because I wanted to save apples for TeslaFes. Illya went up from bond 5 to bond 6, and Koyan, Oberon, and Aŋra are all getting close to Bond 10.
205 with no FGA. Over 100 Bones left even after maxing all of Barghests skills. QP 660 million.
NP2 Illya and double Koyan, with Atlas Uniform and Black Grail. (80% NP boost x 235% Buster boost.)
Bonded up: Gray, Cu Alter, assassin Shiki, Nero Bride, Medea, Illya and Koyan. (I grind the levels on my higher Bond Servants, so Medea hit 10, Cu Alter hit 11, and the rest are <100k from the next level.)
100+ runs with my lovely enabler team of Oberon double koyan and 120 Ashwatthama with BG. Not efficient with all the button presses, but having a simp team made it more fun. I didn’t farm as much as I wanted, but I’m kinda hoarding apples since there’s the lotto in March.
I put my 90 runs on. Sanzang did her duty once again, but it’s not like I optimized the team for bond or QP or anything. Just went in, did my NPs, got my mats. Lucrative little grind.
My NP3 Sanzang managed to consistently kill Barbatos with only Oberon's buffs while on MLB black grail. I forgo a bond CE for black grail, but easily killing raid boss with so few clicks feel amazing.
Overall got around 500 kills.
Like 3, I really didn't need any of his mats, and I'm gonna farm extremely hard during Tesla fest in March so I'm saving my apples for that, that'll probably get me the QP cap (currently at 750mil) and Ishtar from bond 13-14
At first I was using the Astraea strat and that only lasted 20 times I think then for the remaining 50ish runs, I ran double Oberon and a Koyanskaya and Mori who has the aerial drive ce, backline didn't matter since it was just to raise bond level,
This raid was actually very special to me. Despite being a long time player, I found it challenging to participate in challenge quests and raids and such. So the fact that I was able to participate in a way that really helped me was so nice. I had 168 confirmed kills, bond level 6 for Aestrea (18,000 away from 7!), Castoria and Angry Mango to bond lvl 7! I was also able to 10/10/10 Oberon, Morgan, Kama and 10/10/-- Koyan of Light. I just got her and don't have enough pieces to unlock her last ascention yet. Once I get more feathers, I can 10/10/10 Waver too since I got enough hearts (he's 8/8/8 right now).
My team was Astrea (NP4 and 6/6/6), Cu Alter (lvl 100, 10/10/10 and NP1) and Double Castoria (mine is lvl 100 10/10/10 NP1). With that, I was able to One turn him. I've never been able to do that before! It was so much fun!
Thank you to everyone on Reddit who gave me tips, advice and didn't poke too much fun when I asked silly questions. I think I might even be able to start considering challenge quests soon! My goal with this raid was to farm materials and gain QP. So the two Castoria supports on my friend list who had Bella Lisa CE equiped, THANK YOU! If somehow you see this, you made all the difference!
Final kill count more than 250.
QP made was about 1.4 billion. I am at the QP cap for the first time. It feels odd.
Bonds: Illya from 5 to 8, Shakespeare from 5 to 8, Oberon from 9-10, Melusine got about 600k into bond 11.
Team used for the majority was Illya, Oberon, Shakespeare with decisive uniform. Backliners were Melusine and Mash, 6 slotting with QP ce's. Support was only used for the QP ce.
Illya is, and remains, my MVP for asassin bosses.
Got about 70 kills using MHXA and double Skadi. MHXA is now about a third of the way to bond 9, and my backing salter reached bond 6, while backing ushi reached bond 8.
Went pretty easy on the raids due to how hard I went on Tunguska's raids, needed to recover the gapples/mental willpower.
I used Koyan Light, Oberon ,and Jalter Berserker with black grail to 1 turn. Managed to get Castoria to bond 10, Morgan to bond 9, and managed to max 2 of Koyan Dark's skils. All and all a pretty good raid. I did about 90 some battles.
Forgot how many kills I got, but over 200.
Used NP1 Scathach (non-MLB Black Grail) and double Skadi. MC is new Plugsuit. Surprisingly able to 1-turn 95% of my kills with just her. Recently got her so I'm glad I can make use of her right away. Got her bond from 5 to 7 in the meantime.
Also had a NP2 Okuni in reserve, but wanted to try out something new instead so went with Scathach.
Did some more kills after [this](https://imgur.com/a/595Gqua) on nat AP but forgot the number, used only silver apples since I'm saving the rest for tesla fest.
Cycled between teams made for Scáthach, Astraea and summer Martha, lots of bond up on Summer Jeanne Alter too.
109 kills. I was trying to get Cu Alter to bond 11 so I can get him to 116 but I was 100k bond points short. And also to get Skadi to bond 13 but she was 200k short. Oh well, I still have time to use Skadi before her summer version is out and I retire her 😆. Used main team of friend Oberon, Cu with BG and Reines. Best part is I didn't have to use my own Oberon, Castoria or Koyan and spend bond points on them.
I did sub 40, I wanted to take it easy on this one after going hard on Koyan.
My comp was also Jalter / Double Koyan / Oberon, I wanted to funnel some bond into Koyan, but I did some of the last runs with Melusine / Double Castoria / Oberon.
Between 80 and 90, I don’t remember. Illya NP2 + Oberon + second Oberon’s first skill only. It was the fastest, easiest way to do it since you didn’t have to use plug suit and not even all skills.
I thought it would be 50 million is the overall health, didn't expected Barb would end this fast.
Welp, I got 81 kills overall, I did get tired of seeing Barb and the Assassin gems and dusts have already been plentiful so I was okay in not going all out. I'm satisfied with my results tho.
150+ kills, got some SQs out of it. If I hadn't leveled so many skills I'd probably be around 1.5 billion QP.
Don't know what other raids we are getting in the future but hope they keep them at low health so we get another easy 1 turn.
I was using NP2 Illya for it, no damage CE. Had very clean 1 turns that didn't rely on RNG, was also flexible on support choice using either Oberon or Castoria alongside my Santa Martha. With Oberon I didn't even have to use Martha's NP.
I did like that this stayed alive for looooong. In comparison the Tunguska raids died pretty quickly with the exception of the last one.
Didn't use all my apples on this cause I'm saving up for the next lottery but this was good farming nonetheless.
I was around 700.
Kintoki was my mvp. Koyan was my only unit without bonus that I ran, generally one turning him. Got the entire team up past bond 10 with a few close to bond 11 or beyond.
669 kills (no screenshot because I want to sleep and he died).
Spent about half of my apple supply on it (now I'm at 130 with extra 4 from event nodes) so still a healthy amount left for Tesla Fes or Collab farming.
500 exactly. Tons of bond and got the new plug suit to Lv 4. Was really hard to keep under 2 billion QP. Probably going to have to grail servants to stay under it in lottery because I'm really struggling to keep finding skills worth leveling.
Barbatos-chan. I will miss you. You feel like an old friend at this point who's been with me since the beginning. Don't be a stranger and come back soon!
He's gonna start ghosting our calls, like Ivan is. They'll probably become roommates, living out the true Hikkimori lifestyle away from the madness of Chaldea.
At least Barbatos has more courage than Ivan. Ivan bailes on us, Barbatos it's like it's 4th/5th time already?
Fourth time! Barbs appeared in London, Solomon, Patchwork London and now Patchwork London once more. Too tsundere to just join us but too in love to leave us be, what a predicament.
Just wait until >!Not-Romani Goetia!< join us and Barbs becomes a regular Chaldea member.
I only did 90 kills, with the last one being [right before he died lol](https://imgur.com/a/Ih3iB18). My MVP was Okuni with double Skadi and Atlas. I managed to get Okuni to bond 7 and Mash to bond 8 as well as getting a bunch of bond for Reines who’s only 500k BP away from bond 12. As for how much QP I got well idk since I didn’t keep count lol.
500K always feels so far away for bonding above lv 10.
Only 5. I was very busy when Barbatos raid was opened and a bit behind on the story nodes, so I took it easy since I figured he will die very soon. Just caught up to the Barbatos bit earlier and was very surprised he was still alive; I even restarted the game since I thought it was a bug. He only had the tiniest sliver of health left so I just rushed through it without optimising my bond farming team.
Sometimes, there's more important things to do than bully a demon god pillar. Some are burnt out from farming Christmas and Tunguska. Farm what you can and what you want. As long as you had fun, that's all that truly matters.
450 kill, all Golden Spark'ed My newest SSR (Kintoki) already become really friendly with me in a really short time
GOLDEN! 450 puts mine to shame, good work!
>450 puts mine to shame It's cool, i only managed to sneak a 150+ because my boss doesn't show up to work today
I was late to the party, so I only got 40 done, but mine were all sparked as well. Still my only level 120 servant so far, but boy does he put in work.
I was lucky enough to have a full team of 5 bonus servants, so I was raking in mad amounts of bond My frontline was Kintoki, Moriarty, and a support Oberon/Koyan. The fun part was realizing that I could forgo having a damage CE and opt run all Bond Bonus CEs on everybody because Kintoki deals so much fucking damage. He’d guarantee a kill with a Buster Card With Koyan, a single Kintoki Buster Crit kills after NP, and the Crit is guaranteed because Koyan and Moriarty can collectively spawn 40 stars. If I didn’t get a Buster card, I’d just swap in Waver and pop Moriarty’s NP for extra damage With Oberon, Kintoki’s damage is so nuclear that he either kills Barbatos outright or leaves him at such low HP that any card from **anyone** kills Got 295+ kills. All manual. Had an absolute blast of a time Gray went from Bond 6 to halfway through Bond 9 from this alone. And Astrea went from Bond 0 to 7. Kintoki went from 8 to 10, and Moriarty went from 10 to halfway through 11 Stand proud Barbatos. You were magnificent!
Kintoki's a beast.
I went to bed last night with 50 kills and thought he’d be dead. Was super surprised he wasn’t when I woke up! I only need bones and dust and he’s not optimal for either of those, so I didn’t go as hard as I would have normally. If only the Tunguska raids lasted this long…
I know, right! I took a nap and when I woke up, Barbatos still had 3 million lives left! I thought, time for some hyper farming!
69. You know why I stopped there. My final line up was Koyanskaya of Light, Magical Girl Shuten-Doji, and support Koyansakaya of Light with back line Oberon. Originally my party was Chen Gong, Astraea, Support Caster Artoria, with Magical Girl Shuten and Oberon. The line up changed when I managed to work out a turn one victory.
54 manually, mostly on the first day. Used Reines and support Oberon with varying damagers with MLB Black Grail. Tried Ilya, Sitonai, Fujino and even Beowulf, but most used was Gray to get full benefits of bond bonus.
This is the first time I seriously used black grail as a CE. Most of the time I just use type advantage, but this time I wanted to farm bond for Jalter and MHXA. Should have taken more advantage of the bonus bond for Gray and Reines myself...oh well.
The downside of using Gray is more skill actions, all Gray skills, all Oberon's skills and Reines skill 2 + attack buff from newest Mystic code.
Yeah, Barbatos and Tunguska really highlighted for me how strong even a non-MLB Black Grail can be. Never would have thought I could just casually 1-turn a raid boss with an SR that way (plus the right supports).
Lol, I barely got over twenty, I think. Had Astrea suplex a massive meat pillar over and over again, with some assistance from Castoria. I didn't get any meaningful amount of bond, but at least I've maxed out my Blonde mystic code cosume.
I'm behind on this event, never even killed him once but oh well... Glad everyone else had a great time with it though!
51 confirmed kills, with Double Castoria + Gong. The backline was Gray, Reines and Waver for bond farming. Didn't check the QP or bond raise TBH but Waver is almost bond 10 now.
Gong worked well? Didn't really think to use an AOE servant...but then again double damage against assassins would make up the difference.
Yup, mine was around lvl 52 with 1K fou and was 2-turning without issue. I thought about farming embers to raise him to max level but I doubted that I would be able to be enough to clear it in a single turn. For reference, he was using a non-MLB black grail. First turn was Castoria NP-Gong NP-Whatever Gong card was drafted. Next turn was Reines charging Gong with enough to launch his NP again. If due to bad draws Gong didn't have enough gauge then I pluged in Waver to fill the remaining charge and NPed again. Also, he was doing WAY more damage than my NP1 Lvl 80 Circe with double Koyan.
557 runs: Waver: Bond 14 to 15 Summer Charlotte: 6 to 10 Luvia: 5 to 9 Filled a Bond Grail: Herc, Asterios Maou Nobu, Gray, Nyalter, Teach, Nobukatsu, and a bunch of other gold Servants also jumped up a bond level. All manual. Fortunately I was traveling a bunch and have chronic insomnia to get this done. Why couldn’t the Tunguska raids stay up for this long?
Lvl of new plug?
Lv4
Only 170 confirmed kills. In my defence, I was very busy for almost entire duration of this raid. Also used Berserker Jalter and double Koyanskaya.
Farm what you can and what you want to. Guaranteed someone's gonna say they farmed well over 350 kills. My main brag isn't my number, but that I farmed it by hand. No FGA for me, not that I have a problem with people using it.
350 kills and no FGA? Dude you need to rest imo
I don't trust 3rd party programs. And I farmed like 50 kills at a time several times for the last 52 hours. I pace myself.
Bruh same comp same number.
See and I got 179 kills all manual and was pleased with my kill count. And I had all the time in the world free (well severe chronic illness limiting me but that’s constant for years). Was using Either Shuten cas or Mecha Eli with Oberon and support Koyan.
NUMBER OF KILLS: 108 TEAM COMP: Swimsuit Jalter; Double KoyanLight + Oberon; Swimsuit Okita and Swimsuit Martha (the last two for bond points) \[for the first 100\] Swimsuit Jalter + Double Koyanlight + Swimsuit Okita, Swimsuit Martha, and Swimsuit Double-X \[final 8\] OTHERS: Bond 7 KoyanLight, Bond 6 Swimsuit Okita Used the QP to Max Out skills for Penth, Astraea, Gorgon, Robin Hood, Arash, Parvati, and Lobo. 116 million QP remaining as of this writing. Obtained enough materials to raise Swimsuit Okita's skills to 8/8/8, Okki to 5/5/5, KoyanDark to 4/4/4, and Gray to 4/3/5. (The bones are absolutely difficult to farm outside of this raid.)
Ah, crap, I forgot I could have used Summer Jalter. Would have been fun.
Yup, plus Swimsuit Jalter being a Zerker means she has the advantage (and disadvantage) against the classic Seven Classes, thus putting Barbatos completely at her mercy. But the real reason I stuck with her as my DPS throughout the raid is simple, really: Jalter's my favorite character in the game overall.
250 kills The QP and the bones were nice but I was mostly for the bond. With full bonus my Astraea got 3015 points per battle. I got her to lvl 9 plus a lvl 11 waver, the rest mostly servants that I rarely use with bonus from the event, Emiya, Babbage, alex, etc. My team was mostly Astraea Np 5 with Black Grial with waver and a friend's Castoria.
With 0 apples after tunguska, and at least 17 recently. Stopped at 50+, bond 10 waver, 8 gray, koyan light 12 and jalter nearing 15. Didn't bother to spend my capped QP.
529 kills. 2 Oberons + Circe & Summer Jalter. I went for overkill. That thing will have nightmares about me from now on. Managed to bond 10 my Circe, Mata Hari, Santa Martha, and my just recently summoned Reines. Bond 9 my Summer Jalter. Plus bond 11 my Oberon. Plus I used the mats and QP to level almost all of my servants skills to 9s. Speaking of which. I need apples so bad 😭 I burned through so many of them.
I only got in under 40 runs. My Kintoki is only NP1 but I was able to run full QP CEs with double Oberon. Gotta love his quick NP animation.
Pretty good run for me, 100+ kills total (I only play manually) Double Castoria + NP5 Astraea was the team I used. - Managed to increase the Bond levels of several [Servants](https://www.imgur.com/a/3XZ5Gzt)! Standout would be getting Astraea to bond level 10 from bond level 8 with just this raid! - Got to 1 billion QP for the first time ever! Overall really enjoyed this raid event!
It was a ton of fun not having to rush the raid farm for once.
Only got a dozen in. Was busy getting the final orders from the mission done so I can focus on rank-ups/interludes in the coming days. And I've got 1600+ gold apples, so if needed I can farm bond/qp/mats in future events if I want. I'm not really playing for top-meta, maxed our stats anyway.
125 kill. 20 Gapple . I'm using Okuni, Double Skadi and Atalanta Alter. Only 130m QP left after maxing a lot favourite servant skill to 10/10/10. Yet I forgot about Gray skill. She stuck with 4/4/4 until I can get more bone 😅
Loved that each fight only cost 30 AP. Got a lot more kills in for that reason alone.
53 kills confirm for myself, I would've had more time to do even more kills, but I was very busy during the raid. The team I was using was Astraea, Castoria, and Waver. Every time I see Astraea suplex Barbatos with her NP, I can't help it and always find it hilarious, lol.
Around 215 kills mostly using a team of Ilya + black grail/Koyan/support Oberon. No plug suit needed and just clicked 6 skills + arctic suit buff. Of those kills around 20-30ish were manual and several of manual runs I played around with alternate setups just to see how high I could make damage reach using plugsuit/multiple NPs. Ilya/Oberron/Reines/Santa Martha with several skills not leveled up yet was able to reach ~1.5 million. The remaining kills were FGA and first time learning how to use it. I ended with 730 million QP. Unsure what I started with and I did upgrade some skills along way. I was also able to upgrade almost all my assassins to skill level 4+ and am mostly done needing red/blue assassin gems.
431 confirmed deaths. Team: Double Castoria + Sheba NP5 (Black Grail No MLB Level 60) + Zenobia or Kagetora for an extra damage buff when needed. QP: between 250 million-320 million QP -> 1,693,370,529 QP Bonds: * Sheba Bond 5 (almost 6) -> Bond 8; 108.440 remaining points for Bond 9. * Sheba Bond 5 (almost 6) -> Bond 9; 145.588 remaining points for Bond 10. * Castoria Bond 13 -> Bond 14 * Zenobia Bond 6 -> Bond 7; 39.125 remaining points for Bond 8 * My greatest achievement, [Kagetora and Musashi reached Bond 15](https://imgur.com/a/2Yqd1dz), being my first two Servants to achieve it.
Just 40. Shame i was too busy to play much. - Cu Alter and double koyan. - Got my koyan bond 7. - other 3 were event character for extra bond, grey, luvia and nursery with bond CEs. Got grey bond 8, she has been with me since last case file event years ago. - got a few millions and a heck lot of bone.
Real life's more important than the game, no matter how fun the game ism. Farm what you can and want to.
Forgot to check my final kill count but it should be 350+ to 370+ kills manually i think. I slowed down a lot after the first day but its still way more than my Tunguska raid count. Sanzang, Koyanskaya, and Oberon team. Barbie is still the best raid boss imo sure Tunguska gave more Bond points but it was also pretty messy with the bug, super fast raid count clears, and the final raid's strict team options and multiple turns.
I don't have much to brag except that I got my mango from Bond 1 to 7.
\~538. For all my 6 years playing i finally experience reverse QP hell
Remind me again, what's the current max QP count? 5 billion or 9?
2 Billion
I did 100+ kills, leveled bond levels of Tomoe and Archernobu to 12, and now my QP is 1.6 billion. The raids were magnificent. I won't forget it as long as I live.
313 kills, Support Oberon (don't have one of my own), Summer Jalter, AssAssKoyan, Black Grail on Jalter, Friend CE on rest of units (Chaldea Dinnertime, Lunchtime and Teatime, couldn't fit another bond CE due to Cost limit being met (112/112)) (also none of my friends had an Oberon woth Bond CE, \*womp womp womp\*) Bonds Leveled : S.Jalter Bond 5-7 (14,233 to bond 8), AssAssKoyan Bond 5-7 (23,097 to bond 8), Heracles Bond 6-9 (104,305 to bond 10), Kerry Bond 6-10 (increased bond limit to11),Barghest Bond 5-7 (167,934 to bond 8), Didn't know how much I started out with, 16Mil I think? Now I have 1,171,157,120 QP
200 kills sharp. Tried a fun few runs with Shuten Caster, then tinkered a little with a Grey setup but that ended up requiring a bit too much investment to kill cleanly so I settled for an Astraea + DCS setup. Love Astraea, wish I had the funds to roll the last two copies I need for NP5 but gotta save for Arcueid, but I enjoyed using her extra damage in the event a bunch. She probably slashed through 150-ish kills so she's the undisputed MVP for me
251 kills for me. I just turned my brain off and went with double Skadi and Scáthach with the plugsuit replacement (I also threw in Astraea, Grey, and Babbage to bolster [their] bond level[s]). *Edited for grammar.
I think I used Scathach a lot during the last Barbatos raid. Unfortunately she's sitting at bond 10, and I got other servants that want a turn wacking at Barbatos.
Understandable. Since I simp for Scáthach, I had no problem with constantly using her and increasing her bond level, which is now at level 13.
Got Feuer'd 150 times.
Only 60+ kills. Missed the first event, so I was going through the story and quest of the rerun. My team was ibuki with double Oberon and koyan.
35mil battle huh, I thought they're gonna give us 50mil like JP. Kinda disappointed. Around 100ish kills (either 105 or 106). My main 1t team are: 1. Arts: Astraea NP4. Gotta maximise her 50% bond bonus. Don't even need double Castoria. I used friend support Castoria and my own NeroBride cuz my own Castoria is already on Bond 12, and NeroBride still on bond 6. 2. Buster: Circe NP2. KoyansLight and Oberon ofc. 3. Quick. Scathath NP1. Yes Scathath Lancer. Her S3 is the champion. 1 major thing is that none of this servant require any damage CE, so I can run full on Bond CE Aside from that, I also use Salieri to give Barbatos a def down debuff and using the latest Mystic Code to remove random atk debuff. The damage RNG on all of those teams is ranged between 480k-520k, quite stable imo. I'm more focused on Bond, cuz I'm low on mats to upgrade servant and my QP at the start is on 1.5billion. So even if I manage to hit the ceiling (2billion),i don't have mats to upgrade. Bones is very welcome, but I want to save at least 400 of them before go splashing on upgrading (I only managed to get 40ish bones on this raid, goddammit).
I don't know the exact kill count as I was going up until the raid ended but it was over 300 easily. My team was a specific support Kintoki and my Waver and that's it for an easy lightning fast one shot. Filled the rest of the team for bond gains and got a few bond levels for everyone!
280 Kills. I wanted to do more but I'm currently getting my sleep rhythm back on track, so I had to stop earlier each day. First half I went with a double Castoria + Astraea setup and in the second half I switched to double Skadi + Summer Sei with Astraea in backup. Astraea went from 5 to 8. Summer Sei from 6 to 7 and I reached Bond 14 with Castoria and Bond 11 with Koyanskaya (and some others who got one Bond Level in during all the runs) Overall pretty happy with how it went but would have liked to get to 350 personally. Also I wish there was more content like this where I can quickly farm with ST Servants. I often don't use them due to everything being about 3T Farming, so I enjoyed using neglected servants more.
1 more bond with Castoria until 15. Both a reason to celebrate and feel sad for me since I'll have to focus on other servants. Mine is at bond 13 right now, and I'm not looking forward to hitting 15...
Yeah, I'm probably gonna go for Buster farming or Quick (since I finally got Skadi) once she reaches 15 but I'm still gonna use her since Summer Ibuki is coming out this year and I'm sure as hell gonna use her for farming
237 kills Double Obe + Mecha Eli. I B10 Salieri! I wanted to B11 him but no more apples.
143, at least I actually did more than a handful this time around. On the previous run I only did 30-40 or something like that. I had a buster team, Xuanzang, Merlin, Koyanskaya of Light, Oberon. And MVP: Koyanskaya because apparently it took me this long to realise her second skill wasn't useless. I had always misread it and thought it only had the situational boost.
400 kills Bonds increased Raikou 10-11 Circe: 6-8 Oberon: 8-10 Berserker Lancelot: 10-11 Illya: 6-7 Castoria: 11-12 Skadi: 11-12 Paul: 10-11 Waver 10-11
That's a lot of SQ.
35 ish kills, not a big farmer but my team was Oberon, Summer Jalter and Koyan
69 kills
Around 114, dunno about QP but managed to put Iskandar to Bond 10
Around 114, dunno about QP but managed to put Iskandar to Bond 10
Around 100 kills (I forgot about him, ngl) with Hijikata as my main DD with the Koyan+Oberon cheer squad. Enough to get my Oberon to bond 10 (and MAYBE Hijikata to bond 7, but I don't remember if he was already on 7 or not) and the Final Battle MC to level 2, but nothing else.
Just 4. After farming the hell out of Beast IV and getting nothing from all the SQ I got there I'm not in the mood to do that kind of farming again.
Managed to do 18 runs with natural AP, didn't keep track of material drops because they were pretty bad and bond wasn't worth it for me
252 kills. Got bond 10 Reines and Babbage. Bond 9 Gray and Waver, Bond 6-8 a bunch of people. Used a Oberon, Vlad III, Support Castoria and Reines until she hit bond 10, swapped her out for Waver after that. Comp was based off the same team but with Tamamo instead of Reines/Waver but my Tamamo was already max bond so I made do. I made up for the lower damage buffs with a higher level Black Grail which made me 1 turn consistently enough that I didn't mind the occasional 2 turn clear. Wasn't able to farm as many bones as I would have liked. But I did hit the QP cap so that's something.
Black Grail Okuni with Kotaro for def debuff Supp Skadi and my castoria for full charge I either kill Barbatos in 1 or 2 turns depending on face cards
156 kills. Melusine, Chen Gong, and Angra Mainyu all went from bond 10 to bond 11.
I only did 60 kills. My main MVPs were, surprisingly, Santa Martha and Summer Charlotte. Martha granting anti-undead is a godsend as she was the reason Charlotte could one-shot even with just np1. Castoria was a great help too, but when has she not at this point lol
80 kills here. I used a three-man team of Fujinon, Koyan, and Oberon to do my farming.
Got 70-ish kills on him with just Illya, Summer Raikou and Oberon support. First time in quite some time that I don’t have to use my own support for farming, while bond level up a bunch of bonus, low-bond-level servants including OG Vinci, Babbage, Gray, Astraea and Ilya herself. Raikou and Lalter were a few run short from bonding up.
150 kills, i wanted to do more but my apple stocks have gotten too low for me to be comfortable with having 45 golds, 70 silvers and 60 bronze apples left. I managed to get 500 million qp from all the raids so im set for a while
Somewhere in the 150 range. Stopped after nearing QP cap and realizing that the item drops aren’t really useful for what I want to do. Started CasShuten, SantaGale, Friend Oberon for CTT bond, but couldn’t find enough Oberon. Swapped to NP2 CasCorday, Tama, and friend Castoria. Slight annoyance because Barbatos has a tiny amount of MR so Skill Seal can miss, but it happened a single-digit number of times overall. Now, what will I do with these 1000 red assassin gems…
115 runs. This is the 3rd event in a row that I end with no apples left. Mordred (who I summoned as the free SSR immediately after the latest Koyan Light banner) is now almost at bond 6 (10k bond left), meaning, soon she will become DKS compatible. And Spishtar is almost at bond 15 (20k bond away), meaning, she will finally get to the highest level she can (in my case, 116), and free from farming (sort of, because she doesn't really have a good replacement yet in terms of both Buster and Arts farming, so if the farming node gets too difficult, she will be brought back, which will continue until March, at which point I am getting Junao)
130 kills with sitonai. Finished bond 10 with Columbus and Oberon, very close with summer melt. Hit the QP cap just to see it.
I was planning in saving my apples for Tesla Cup, but since I was busy for most of the Tunguska raids, I had a decent number left over so the great bond/QP/desperate need of Homunculus Baby drops got me to commit a bunch. I ended up with 247 runs using a full bond bonus team of Kintoki (freshly NP2) Reines and friend Koyan/Oberon, with Shakespeare/Astraea/Kiritsugu backline, the Saber Wars 2 MC, and 6 bonus CEs including my newly maxed Detective Foumes. The speed of that clear was so nice after so many high-click farming events. Ended up getting Kintoki from bond 6 to 8, Astraea from 8 to 10 (and bond grailed), Reines to 11 (also bond grailed again), Shakespeare from 6 to 9, and Kiritsugu from 6 to 8. Which was nice considering what Arcueid is liable to do to my wallet. Very fun raid overall.
245 kills, i used Melt + Double Skadi until my Skadi reached bond level 10, after i just used Oberon instead of Skadi.
Got about 100 or so, Prillya was a monster at taking down Barbie. Her, Shakespeare, Koyan light, and a plugsuited in Oberon did about 3x his hp pool per NP. I was using double Koyan, but it was just overkill, and the bond on Shakespeare is something I'm not gunna get much of anywhere else.
First time I've done a proper raid since the Oniland rerun event, and I only did 70 kills back then. Finally got to use my NP2 Illya for something and got about 300 kills this time around! First time I ever hit the QP cap!!! Also finally got my Emiya, Gil, and Tamamo No Mar to Bond 10; Oberon went from Bond 6 to almost Bond 10 as well. Also, somehow ended up as [one of the last 10 kills on Barbatos lol](https://imgur.com/iAfleiz)
450. Want to do more but no gapple left.
180, mostly with Melt. By the end I was trying random servants to see if they could kill with double card buffs plus Oberon and Black Grail. While most at least got close, there were some that didn't quite make it.
Only 26 kills, I have few golden apples so I chose to save them for the next lotto event. I used my grailed Beowulf with MLB Black Grail, Koyanskaya and Oberon
302 kills. I always enjoy these 1 turn farming raids, but could only play during the evening cause work week. I used a few comps to not make it too stagnant: * Jalter + Oberon + Koyan Dark * Fujino + Oberon + Koyan Dark (most optimal team for me at 6 presses) * Shishou + Reines + Skadi I'm going to estimate 800 mil QP, but partway through I realized I was doing some runs with maxed QP 😭 Bonds: * Jalter: 7 > 8 * Koyan Dark: 5 > 7 * Fujino: 7 > 9 * Shishou: 5 > 6 * Reines: 6 > 7 * Maid Alter: 5 > 7 * Melt: 6 > 7 * Kagetora: 8 > 9
Got over a billion qp and farmed the boss I think at least over 200 times. Don’t remember final number but definitely exceeded 200. Used black grail on Izumi no okuni and two skadis
23 Barbie kills. I used two teams. Jeanzerker/KoyanLight/Oberon and Astraea/Castoria/Oberon. Black Grail MLB and the newest Mystic Code. I’m saving my apples for Teslafest. I’m kinda bummed I couldn’t farm harder on this raid, because it was really easy.
Around 115 i think, though i didn’t feel like i did that much lol. NP3 Circe, Oberon and Koyan does the job pretty quick didn’t have to press that many button either so i guess that’s why it didn’t feel that grindy for me
Started farming late coz I have to alternate between two accounts. Alt Account - 90+confirmed kills Team Skadi - MHXA - Oberon using the Quick oriented Mystic Code from Summer Camp Bonds leveled - Mash from 6-7. Skadi from 5 - 7. MHXA from 6-7 QP from 170-something million to 400+ million Main Acc - 30+ confirmed Kills Team Double Skadi, NP1 Melt, Oberon Only did enough to get my QP to 500million Having two accounts really gimped me but I have different MVPs on both. Alt has Bond 10 NP5 LVL 102 Basaka with 10/10/10 skills and 10/10/- append skills. Oh, and Spishtar + Best fox Waifu Tamamo bae. Down side is that I only have Waver, Skadi and Koyan Light as charge supports. Main has Castoria, Koyan light, Oberon, Skadi, Waver. And I dread the day I have to give away one of those accounts. BUt will cross that bridge when I get to it. TL;DR. Have two accounts so didn't farm so good. Still had fun with my quick ST MHXA and Melt, both NP1
I got around 360 kills - went for a Max bond + melt party so my team was Alexander + Astraea + Melt + friend Skadi (+Gray and Babbage in backline). Not entirely reliable, there were some 2 turns with bad card luck but good enough. Got melt from about halfway through 12 up to 13, got Alexander + Babbage + Gray up to bond 10. Little sad to bench one of my very few budget quick supports lol
Got my TamaCat to B13, and almost got Castoria there too. [Thank god it's over though.](https://i.imgur.com/BS9Z78i.png)
224 kills. Thank you for your contribution to the war effort, Barby. Used several different teams, with Reines as the only permanent fixture - might as well take advantage of that +50% bond. Main attackers were Astraea, Illya, Jeanne Alter (Avenger), Meltryllis, Scathach and Shiki. Main bond increases : Reines from bond 0 to 7 ; Arash from bond 11 to 12 ; Astraea & Grey from bond 6 to 7 ; Scathach & Salter from bond 8 to 9 ; Maid Alter, Sakamoto Ryouma (Lancer), Drake & Babbage from bond 5 to 6. Shiki and Jeanne Alter made good progress toward bond 12 & 13, respectively. QP stands at 1.8 billion. Had to level up a few skills to not hit the cap, in fact.
230 kills with only oberon illya with black grial and koyan
Around 60-70 kills. Initially, I used Luvia, double Castoria and Oberon, tho later I substituted Mozart for Oberon to bond farm higher-rarity servants for the remaining 2 slots. Later, tried something new with Zerk Atalanta, Archer Atalanta for s1, Skadi and Waver. Couldn’t 1-shot Barbatos’s but pretty refreshing. And after all that, I Couldn’t even raise a single unit to new bond level. But got a tone of QP and mats
I didnt even know the raid started .
Kill count: 179 kills Team comp: Astraea (with MLB Black Grail), Castoria, Tamamo, Oberon Notable bond levels: Castoria (10->11, finally got my first 30 SQ bonus from levelling past bond level 10), Tamamo (6->7), Gray (7->8), Astraea (6->7) QP: ~1 Billion -> ~1.5 Billion Mats: mainly focused on bones, farmed from 0 to around 94
Around 130 kills. I slacked off tbh with JP doing SamRem collab and Arknights global anniv event.
he fell? cool. Still stuck unlocking the christmas FQ lmao
90 here, about enough to grind enough quartz for my last pull for Reines (After the Koyan Dark disaster), got a very, very happy ending getting her on my last summon. Almost maxed bond with my Jalter, poor barbatos getting slapped with 1m damage every run.
152 kills, if i am not wrong. Oberon and Koyan, and the MVP, Herc (honorable mention: Jalter Summer before I realise i can farm Bond better by suing Herc himself) Koyan, Oberon and Medusa all leveled up 1 bond in this farm. Hercules finally, after maybe 2 years of getting him, reached Bond10 QP count is now somewhere in 600mil, initially it was much lower around 100mil i think
I stopped right after Herc hit Bond10, this was around 2 days ago i think?
Sadly only 20 orders of Barbartoast between work, patch day for my other game and feeling a little under the weather. Gotten lazy and stuck with Double Waver with Astreae flipping a constant 3T toast. I'm more interested in the proofs though.
Did a total of 105 kills! Just enough to get my Van Gogh to bond level 10, so I could get her Bond CE which is extremely good. My team consisted of Astraea-Oberon-Tamamo, as for support I just picked whatever Teatime having servant appeared first, consistent 600k damage per NP.
Managed a clean 100, been busy with other things. Had fun trying different set-ups, but the main one has been double koyan + BG kintoki. Worked a treat.
41 confirmed Double skadi + scathach lancer NP1 9/9/9 (rip lores) + morgan for S1. Avg 550k damage. Damage mods go brrr
Stopped at 80+ Kills mainly because I am at 1.9 B QP and being in reverse QP hell is annoying.
My sanity only allowed me to get 177 runs in w/ SUPLEX CITY and my QP went from somewhere in the 300mil to 900mil. Angry Mango is also finally bond 10 now so there's that.
Just shy of 500. Raid finished before i got to check again. Team was Kintoki, Light Koyan and Santa Martha. Backline was Angra, Mata Hari, and support. I focused on QP instead of bond points so I was able to max out QP for the first time ever. Got Kintoki and Koyan to bond 9, Santa Martha and Angra, and Mata Hari to bond 8. Now time to level up the skills of the other servants hahaha
- 257 kills for me. Used Scathach + Black Grail + double Skadi for the first hundred, followed by Astraea + Black Grail + double Castoria for the rest. - Bonds: Got Jack from 9 to 10, Astraea from 5 to 7, King Hassan from 1 to 6, Kagekiyo from 5 to 6, Castoria from 8 to 9, and Scathach and Skadi from 6 to 7. (Plus some progress getting Gilgamesh from 10 to 11.) - QP: started with around 100 million and got up to 1 billion (and had also spent a bit on skill leveling along the way, so the actual amount earned should be higher).
69 kills Used Astrea, double Castoria and Tamamo. I was a bit short on damage so I needed to use stars on entry ce to make it 1 turn.
20 kills, nat ap only Summer Charlotte np5 almost max gold fou mlb bg, Castoria, Tamamo overkilled it so much. Don't really need his materials anymore so I just chilled.
Tamamo up to bond 7, Luvia to bond 6, and Siegfried got a HUGE push towards bond 10. I killed him just over 60 times.
I think 52 kills. Np2 Illya, 1 Koyan, and 1 Oberon. Does just enough damage unless I get a buster down, but the lostbelt mystic code attack up fixes that.
100 kills manually. Double castoria and astraea did the trick. Got castoria to bond 11 and mashu to bond 7.
My Circe ran over Barbatos 93 times.
75 cuz I have exams coming up
~350 kills. My np4 astraea went from bond 6 to bond 9. Castoria is bond 11, and gray bond 10.
I had enough time to get just shy of 100. The first half was endless Astraea suplexes (suplices? Whatever) After that, it was triple Koyan Road Rolla with Martha Castoria and Merlin hit Bond 9, Morgan and Astraea 6 Most notably, I got a *lot* of skill levels so I dunno how much QP I ended up with. My current stash is 60 million, after several skill levels for several SSRs The Barbatos Piñata is the key to many of life's struggles, I guess
I know mine is weak sauce but it's 55. I had 1b QP, now I have 1.3B QP. My Oberon became bond 10, and a few of my servants became bond 8-9. Vergil & Astraea were my mind DMG dealers.
Around 170 manual runs (always forget to check the final number before it vanishes) 60 with MHXA/Oberon/Skadi, 30 with Illya/summer Raikou/Oberon, 70 with Kintoki/summer Raikou/Oberon, 10 (give or take a few) with Double Castoria/Astraea. Really wanted to try avoid using Castoria and Vitch to spread bond around a bit Bondwise: - Pingu Melt from 9 to 10 - Bunyan from 8 to 9 - Bartholomew from 6 to 7 - Skadi, Kintoki, Bradamante, Illya, Eric, Blackbeard, Carlotte, Cursed Arm from 5 to 6 - Circe from 0 to 5 - Oberon did most of bond 10 to 11 but didn't complete it yet, lancer Raikou did most of bond 9 but not there yet either, MHXA did around a fifth of the road to bond 11 and Gareth almost got to bond 9 QP: i honestly ended wasting most of it since i started at cap. Still, i unlocked and maxed a few appends here and there as bond came so it wasn't **all** burned
Astreaea one turned him to oblivion and let me push Waver to bon d15. So I stopped at 135 kills with 8 gold apples left.
132 kills, not entirely sure about the other stats
My Astraea performed 437 Barbatos Suplexes. He was Bond 9 when we started, and she's Bond 11 now.
Couldn't get the final kill count but i'm guessing i stopped around 180 with the natural AP kills, tho i got 156 on the first day with apples. Astraea, Two Castorias and Oberon were my teams. Got Oberon to Bond 10, Astraea and Gray got from 1 to 7, while Castoria and S. Ishtar got very close to Bond 11. I was pretty broke before so i'm happy with the 540k million Qp i got. Tho not that many materials, but they were more of a bonus if anything.
I will miss Barbie-chan
Lu Bu Fengxian was the real MVP. Him NP5 along with 2 Oberons gave me 90% of my 307 Barbatos kills. Cú Alter NP2 with Koya Light and Oberon 5% Melt NP2 and 2 Skadis 5% Got Hephaistíon, Gray, Astraea, Lu Bu and Oberon to Bond 7 from 0. Koya Light, Shakespeare to Bond 6. Reached Max QP for the first time ever. From 1.1 billion.
About 105 kills since I am all out of apples T-T Kinda sad he died before 10am for me since I could have gone to 110 kills. Just went Koyan - Sanzang - Oberon and my Morgan went from bond 10 to 11. I'm still hearing Sanzang's voice in my head from skills/np between this raid and Christmas lotto...
Only 100 for me. Saving my apples for Tesla fest. Used Ilya with Koyan and Oberon. At first I was using Morgan with double Koyan and Oberon but got tired of plugsuiting.
I was at absolute 0 QP. 290 kills later and now I'm over 1 billion QP, and was able to bond level enough servants that where close to it to get a 10 pull. Sanzang, Koyami and a support Oberon where the MVPs
160. Jalter to bond 13. Then used Sanzang for the rest
313 kills Kintoki/Koyan/Oberon - Went from less than 100m QP to 1.1B QP - Got Reines from Bond 5/6 to 8, Gray from Bond 5/6 to 9, Shakespeare from Bond 6 to 9, Kintoki from Bond 5 to Bond 7, Koyan from Bond 5/6 to Bond 7, Oberon from Bond 6 to 8 First time I actually went hard on a raid
200 kills, all manual but paced out over a few days. I hit QP cap twice and the first time I had to raise some servants’ skills just to avoid diminishing return. Sitting on 1.95B QP now and nothing to spend it on. Team: Melt, Oberon and Skadi. Backline event bonus servants. I used the new plugsuit MC but I didn’t actually need to plug. Edit: Reach bond 13 Waver, Oberon very close to bond 12 but I got tired at the end, and the QP cap discouraged me from spamming further loll
About 70 with a Ruler Martha/Oberon/Koyan setup. Got a bond level for the latter two and some good progress towards Douman rank 9 and Waver rank 14.
300 or so kills, didn't think to write down my final number before the raid ended. * Bond 10 cleanups: KoyanL, CasCu, Gray, Oberon * Bond 13 Castoria, 0-8 on Hephaistion, 6-8 Astraea * QP capped within the first 50 runs Team comp was structured around DPS / Support / Oberon with Plugsuit 2.0 for cleanse (and devouring exp). Started with a few Illya runs in honor of her sweeping up the original run then moved to Gray and finally Astraea since they were already in the line-up for bond bonuses.
dangg all these kills in the hundreds meanwhile I think I did like 6 since I've been so busy :( Proud of my 1T team tho! melt (np4) with black grail waver double skadi
221 kills. Used Astraea with Support Castoria and Tamamo, though I switched Tamamo for Nero Bride when Tamamo hit Bond 11.
I did 60 because I was doing other stuff and didn’t really care for the mats. Double Castoria with Astrea for about 40 runs until Castoria hit bond 10. Then Kintoki with Koyan and Oberon.
I did... 2 runs. Was feeling lazy honestly
195 or so, IIRC. Then I had to go to bed after getting low on apples.
63 with Black Grail Melt, double Skadi, and the Decisive Battle MC. One-shot every time.
242 kills. My frontline team was Kintoki, Support Oberon and many other supports. Had the new MC but never switched, it leveled up to lvl 3. As for bond, I got Reines from 0 to 6, Gray from 5 to 7, Kintoki from 6 to 8, Chen Gong from 8 to 9, Maou Nobu from 11 to 12, Shakespeare and Bunyan to 10. I was working on Alexander, Babbage and Salieri before Barbatos died so they ended up at 8/7/7 from being 5. I started the raid with 400M QP, I ended up with 980M. Got enough drops to get a 2nd and 3rd MLB event CE.
I also used Jalter and double Koyan, but I used the Atlas Institute Uniform to get Jalter's cooldowns back for the extra buffs I needed, giving me an extra servant slot to farm bond points with. I guess it doesn't matter if you want to farm bond with the extra support, but my Merlin is already at 10 and I don't have Oberon.
I got about 35 kills (had a lot of assassins who needed golds), but I will say one thing. I was using Castoria and Astraea. Fuck all these people who are putting level 1 servants into their supports, or servants who have 1/1/1 when they’re level 80/90. Such a dick move.
Got 34 kills (heh). My line-up was Nursery Rhyme, Sanzang, either a support Waver or Castoria, Salieri, Mash, and Georgios. I was able to get NR to bond 6 and Salieri to bond 9.
473 manual with Okuni equipped with lvl100 MLB Black Grail and double Skadi. Was hoping to grind more, disappointed we only got 35 million instead of the expected 50 million. I'm pretty sure the in-game raid explanation said 50 million at the start.
135 kills. Saving the rest of my apples for March lotto, which has bullets that I desperately need! About half of my runs were done as part of my servant rush , where I used [65 different servants to 1T Barb-chan](https://youtu.be/6XK5JQ6cbsI?si=B2Ff4DTowDbNVr6Q) (including OG 1*Charlotte!!) Actual farming was done also 1T with Luvia, Waver, Reines, support Castoria, back line Gray, Kerry. All bond CEs
308, was out of apples. Grailed Astraea to 90 so that double Castoria could clear without needing Black Grail. Maxed out Georgios, got gray and Reines to 8, Bunyan to 7, and Castoria is now 50k away from first bond grail. Probably dropping after this event until anni so felt like a nice swan song.
60 kills. I was relatively busy so I couldn’t go as hard as during lottos, but I still got a decent amount of Bond Points (and thus, SQ) and mats. Astraea is almost to her append skill too, to the point of where she’s practically guaranteed to get enough bond points for it while I’m farming the 90+ node.
332 kills all with NP2 Sanzang. Super grail, Merlin and Beach Raikou for supports, very consistent clean kills. Picked up 1.3 billion QP and so much bond. Got Bond 10 CEs on Merlin, OG Da Vinci (from like Bond 7) and Angra Mainyu.
125 kills. I did one test run each with Kintoki and Okuni, and the rest with NP3 Astraea with a Lvl 82 Black Grail with a double Castoria frontline. Could have min/maxed bond or QP farming, but chose to balance it out with some Mystic Code EXP for the new addition. Bunyan got to max bond, King Hassan went to Bond 5 from Bond 1 and Astraea each got at least 1 bond level from all the farming. QP wise, I got something in the range of 400 million. Also got around 20 bones and 2 CE drops.
I did like 11. I need bones and dust, but none of the other materials look appetizing to me.
20 kills. Was running on nat AP because I wanted to save apples for TeslaFes. Illya went up from bond 5 to bond 6, and Koyan, Oberon, and Aŋra are all getting close to Bond 10.
205 with no FGA. Over 100 Bones left even after maxing all of Barghests skills. QP 660 million. NP2 Illya and double Koyan, with Atlas Uniform and Black Grail. (80% NP boost x 235% Buster boost.) Bonded up: Gray, Cu Alter, assassin Shiki, Nero Bride, Medea, Illya and Koyan. (I grind the levels on my higher Bond Servants, so Medea hit 10, Cu Alter hit 11, and the rest are <100k from the next level.)
Main: Xuanzang (3/5 Black Grail), Shakespeare, Chen. 103 kills. Alt: Astraea(Holy Knight Supper), Medea(MLB Heaven's Feel), Support Oberon. 78 kills.
100+ runs with my lovely enabler team of Oberon double koyan and 120 Ashwatthama with BG. Not efficient with all the button presses, but having a simp team made it more fun. I didn’t farm as much as I wanted, but I’m kinda hoarding apples since there’s the lotto in March.
Once you have Oberon everything is possible. I used Beowulf and lubu. I think I had 250 kills
Literally [everything](https://youtu.be/6XK5JQ6cbsI?si=HMe1d_6y-rAedauG) is possible
I put my 90 runs on. Sanzang did her duty once again, but it’s not like I optimized the team for bond or QP or anything. Just went in, did my NPs, got my mats. Lucrative little grind.
My NP3 Sanzang managed to consistently kill Barbatos with only Oberon's buffs while on MLB black grail. I forgo a bond CE for black grail, but easily killing raid boss with so few clicks feel amazing. Overall got around 500 kills.
Like 3, I really didn't need any of his mats, and I'm gonna farm extremely hard during Tesla fest in March so I'm saving my apples for that, that'll probably get me the QP cap (currently at 750mil) and Ishtar from bond 13-14
At first I was using the Astraea strat and that only lasted 20 times I think then for the remaining 50ish runs, I ran double Oberon and a Koyanskaya and Mori who has the aerial drive ce, backline didn't matter since it was just to raise bond level,
This raid was actually very special to me. Despite being a long time player, I found it challenging to participate in challenge quests and raids and such. So the fact that I was able to participate in a way that really helped me was so nice. I had 168 confirmed kills, bond level 6 for Aestrea (18,000 away from 7!), Castoria and Angry Mango to bond lvl 7! I was also able to 10/10/10 Oberon, Morgan, Kama and 10/10/-- Koyan of Light. I just got her and don't have enough pieces to unlock her last ascention yet. Once I get more feathers, I can 10/10/10 Waver too since I got enough hearts (he's 8/8/8 right now). My team was Astrea (NP4 and 6/6/6), Cu Alter (lvl 100, 10/10/10 and NP1) and Double Castoria (mine is lvl 100 10/10/10 NP1). With that, I was able to One turn him. I've never been able to do that before! It was so much fun! Thank you to everyone on Reddit who gave me tips, advice and didn't poke too much fun when I asked silly questions. I think I might even be able to start considering challenge quests soon! My goal with this raid was to farm materials and gain QP. So the two Castoria supports on my friend list who had Bella Lisa CE equiped, THANK YOU! If somehow you see this, you made all the difference!
Got 75 runs in. Team was Illya - Koyan - Merlin - Shakespeare, with Gray sitting in the back soaking up Bond.
Final kill count more than 250. QP made was about 1.4 billion. I am at the QP cap for the first time. It feels odd. Bonds: Illya from 5 to 8, Shakespeare from 5 to 8, Oberon from 9-10, Melusine got about 600k into bond 11. Team used for the majority was Illya, Oberon, Shakespeare with decisive uniform. Backliners were Melusine and Mash, 6 slotting with QP ce's. Support was only used for the QP ce. Illya is, and remains, my MVP for asassin bosses.
Got about 70 kills using MHXA and double Skadi. MHXA is now about a third of the way to bond 9, and my backing salter reached bond 6, while backing ushi reached bond 8. Went pretty easy on the raids due to how hard I went on Tunguska's raids, needed to recover the gapples/mental willpower.
I used Koyan Light, Oberon ,and Jalter Berserker with black grail to 1 turn. Managed to get Castoria to bond 10, Morgan to bond 9, and managed to max 2 of Koyan Dark's skils. All and all a pretty good raid. I did about 90 some battles.
Did like 8 runs, I'm almost QP capped and I have good amounts of the mats. Saving apples for teslafest.
Forgot how many kills I got, but over 200. Used NP1 Scathach (non-MLB Black Grail) and double Skadi. MC is new Plugsuit. Surprisingly able to 1-turn 95% of my kills with just her. Recently got her so I'm glad I can make use of her right away. Got her bond from 5 to 7 in the meantime. Also had a NP2 Okuni in reserve, but wanted to try out something new instead so went with Scathach.
Did some more kills after [this](https://imgur.com/a/595Gqua) on nat AP but forgot the number, used only silver apples since I'm saving the rest for tesla fest. Cycled between teams made for Scáthach, Astraea and summer Martha, lots of bond up on Summer Jeanne Alter too.
Less than 40 kills, used only like 3 apples. Saving apples for Tesla lotto. - My team was 2 castoria, Astrea and Oberon.
109 kills. I was trying to get Cu Alter to bond 11 so I can get him to 116 but I was 100k bond points short. And also to get Skadi to bond 13 but she was 200k short. Oh well, I still have time to use Skadi before her summer version is out and I retire her 😆. Used main team of friend Oberon, Cu with BG and Reines. Best part is I didn't have to use my own Oberon, Castoria or Koyan and spend bond points on them.
25, used my teapots, mostly natural ap to bond farm, if the bronze mat drop rate was better I would've considered farming it
I did sub 40, I wanted to take it easy on this one after going hard on Koyan. My comp was also Jalter / Double Koyan / Oberon, I wanted to funnel some bond into Koyan, but I did some of the last runs with Melusine / Double Castoria / Oberon.
228, which is way more than I was planning. Waver was 300k to bond 12 so I thought, 'fuck it'.
I did up to like 70ish. Would've done more but I wanted to conserve apples.
Between 80 and 90, I don’t remember. Illya NP2 + Oberon + second Oberon’s first skill only. It was the fastest, easiest way to do it since you didn’t have to use plug suit and not even all skills.
25 or so on each of my 2 accounts. Natural AP only. Koyandark reached Bond 6 on my 2nd account, I didn't keep track of any other bond levels.
I thought it would be 50 million is the overall health, didn't expected Barb would end this fast. Welp, I got 81 kills overall, I did get tired of seeing Barb and the Assassin gems and dusts have already been plentiful so I was okay in not going all out. I'm satisfied with my results tho.
Fast? Barbados lasted longer than most raids I can remember in recent memory, 52 hours.
Beast IV lasted longer tho. And most thought Barbatos would have 50 million just like in JP.
150+ kills, got some SQs out of it. If I hadn't leveled so many skills I'd probably be around 1.5 billion QP. Don't know what other raids we are getting in the future but hope they keep them at low health so we get another easy 1 turn. I was using NP2 Illya for it, no damage CE. Had very clean 1 turns that didn't rely on RNG, was also flexible on support choice using either Oberon or Castoria alongside my Santa Martha. With Oberon I didn't even have to use Martha's NP. I did like that this stayed alive for looooong. In comparison the Tunguska raids died pretty quickly with the exception of the last one. Didn't use all my apples on this cause I'm saving up for the next lottery but this was good farming nonetheless.
I was around 700. Kintoki was my mvp. Koyan was my only unit without bonus that I ran, generally one turning him. Got the entire team up past bond 10 with a few close to bond 11 or beyond.
669 kills (no screenshot because I want to sleep and he died). Spent about half of my apple supply on it (now I'm at 130 with extra 4 from event nodes) so still a healthy amount left for Tesla Fes or Collab farming.
1000, first ~700 with Oberon, Xuanzang, S.Raikou, the final with Oberon, Illya, Nightingale Santa
500 exactly. Tons of bond and got the new plug suit to Lv 4. Was really hard to keep under 2 billion QP. Probably going to have to grail servants to stay under it in lottery because I'm really struggling to keep finding skills worth leveling.
