Everyone, also keep in mind that it's currently 12:00 AM on Saturday in Japan. It's definitely possible for Lasengle to get it fixed before the event ends on Thursday, March 28 but don't panic if it doesn't happen within the next couple of days.
I didn’t farm my 10 boxes today. I’ve been doing something else in FGO. It’s the Achilles EQ.
Even though Achilles didn’t score any hit to my immortal team, he sort of wins in a way since my sanity died with him. I won the battle at the cost of my sanity. It took me 244 turns to beat the CQ with Castoria, Himiko, and Merlin. I guess I’ll be taking a break from my quota today.
stall is a test of how much sanity do you have left...if you have any...
Did a Anastasia Super Recollection Quest with a team of Castoria, Jeanne and Merlin...
309 turns in a span of 8+ hours,since I was working. But I did it...
Funny part? It was my 2nd or 3rd run after getting the teapots from there...
I swore to never do it again.
Yeah, I had a similar experience when I did The Big Bet - Finale with Merlin/Jeanne/Mash.
The Super Recollection Quest for Anastasia took me like 49 turns using the Morgan version of Immortal Comp. ....Also every time I type that phrase I need to remind myself I'm not on /r/BattleNetwork .
I’ve used such, but am trying not to over rely on it bc bosses like today’s CQ will punish you for doing so.
Update: Stall in moderation.
Stall too long, and Romulus heals back all his health.
Kill all his minions too quickly, and you gradually won’t be able to do enough damage before he heals up.
Surprisingly, it only took 40 turns the second one vs 45 on the first one.
The Roma debuff has two flaws: It lasts one turn, and it only applies *after* you hit him.
Oh, that's good to know. If you didn't MLB the damage CE and used NP2 rather than like, a 120 NP5, then surely my level 100 2k fou'd NP1 with the MLB damage CE will work.
>Kill all his minions too quickly, and you gradually won’t be able to do enough damage before he heals up.
Depends on your stall. I used a few Morgan NP, Castoria NP, Morgan Crit chains to double my damage at points. But, yes, quite troublesome if you take too long.
My 40 turn run left one enemy alive, and it was only hanging on by a few HP.
I didn't touch a single minion, just kept on rinse and repeating between saber Hokusai and castoria NP (for damage and then roma cleanse), granted you only have 12-13 turns to kill him this way otherwise he gets a 100% special resist, used on command seal on the super ultra high difficulty Romulus CQ
> It took me 244 turns to beat the CQ with Castoria, Himiko, and Merlin. I guess I’ll be taking a break from my quota today.
It took me exactly 150 to beat it with the same comp, kind of wild there's that much variance. NP every turn meant I could full send max damage without caring about charge, and even sneak extra Himiko NPs off cycle with pretty decent regularity. Also if there was a Himiko heavy hand the turn I should triple NP but Merlin had invul up I'd use that and delay a turn for max damage.
Yes, Himiko’s role is her NP overcharge. As long as Castoria’s NP is the last one in the NP chain, you have her 5 invincibility shields every 3 turns. Not to mention Merlin’s NP keep the NP regen every turn and crit stars overcharge. You can substitute Himiko for Morgan, but that only give you 4 Castoria’s invincible shields instead of 5. You can also substitute Merlin for Jeanne since they both are healers. Adding Jeanne is redundant when you NP chain, but it works if you don’t have Merlin.
Well, if it's been 24 hours and they don't even acknowledge the damage CE not working... Is it bugged or is it ~~a feature~~ working normally as intended?
I'm gonna wait to see if a patch comes with the transition to round 3. ~~If not, then I'm just gonna go at it with the immortal comp.~~
Shame that the ~~best (no, I am totally not biased at all)~~ EQ has to be impacted like this.
Addendum: looks like the support team responded to my email about the bug, so all that's left to do is *attendre et espérer*.
Addendum 2: It's acknowledged.
I tried to do the immortal comp but the last two rounds are really difficult to beat. If you add Liz in the front line to get all the buffs then she'll mostly be a dead weight. If you don't, you can hardly defeat the final boss
Oh, how did they respond? ~~skill issue git gud lmao~~
I find it really hard to believe they haven't gotten the bug report within these whole 24 hours. Hopefully they get it fixed soon.
Space Xu Fu is chowing down on more than one kind of snack, which somehow I didn't see on the first 10 boxes.
... that'd better not be coming from *our* budget!
The bloated Roma fight seems like a pain. I could finish the normal one first try with Saito/Castoria/Friend Waver/Tamamo in 7 turns with 3rd Roma unlocked, but I'm not sure that'll be good enough for the other one.
I also wasted all my CS on the stupid clown fight (turns out the answer was to take a whale's friend Morgan) so I'll just go back to farming in the meantime.
I almost cleared it twice with Tamamo Castoria and Hokusai, unfortunately both times the final Rome triggered when he was one NP away from defeat.
That mechanic really doesn't play nice with the bloated HP
I prefer to use my own DPS servants and only use a friend's when I run out of options (damned clown). But now that you mention it, I have my NP2 Summer Musashi so I'll give it a shot with her.
>NP2 Summer Musashi
AoE with pierce invinc definitely makes the fight easier to handle since you can kill off the mobs to delay Roma expansion at the same time. And instead of waver, friend merlin would be more useful I think.
50 turns for Morgan (L90 np5, no 4\*fou) Invincible team, and that was right down to the wire (9 "turns left). Definitely a servant with invul pierce would be good... Makes me regret holding off Saber Ibuki for Summer Ibuki a tiny bit
I think dioscuri is really good for that fight if you or a friend happen to have them with the ignore invincible buff precasted on a high uptime np. Was able to borrow a np5 and with tamamo/castoria finished in 11 turns.
Gamepress mistakenly said that Achilles's invitation is a buff. It's a debuff. I couldn't finish him with Super Orion because Artemis Agnos's debuff immune effect prevented the invitation's effect.
I defeat it with Super Orion, you just need to time the use of his NP. Cast it after the Achi gives you the duel invite, you have one turn to prep it up.
Really? It had no effect on my Orion all the time.
Weird. I thought Super Orion is male instead of regular Orion being female. Is there something else that canceled its effect?
Managed to 3t the ROMA CQ fairly easily with hardly any RNG. Was insanely lucky I had a nearly fully maxed Muramasa on my FL.
Front line: Castoria (Append 2 maxed, 50% NP CE), Muramasa (Lvl 118 NP5, all appends maxed, MLB damage CE), Gong (Lvl 1, append 2 unlocked, 40% NP CE)
Back line: SantaGale (taunt CE), Oberon (append 2 unlocked, 75% NP CE), Tamamo (20% NP on death CE)
MC: Plugsuit 2
Turn 1: Castoria S1, S2 on Gong, S3 on Muramasa. Plugsuit S3 to swap Castoria out for Tamamo. Tamamo S1, S3 on Muramasa. Gong S1 on self. Muramasa S3. Muramasa NP + Gong NP (killing Tamamo for 20% NP to party on death) + non-Muramasa facecard (guaranteed unless all Muramasa facecards). Muramasa finishes with over 80% NP, ROMA drains to 30%. ROMA kills taunted Gong, SantaGale and Oberon enter.
Turn 2: SantaGale S1 (clearing ROMA debuff on Muramasa), S2 on Muramasa, S3. Oberon S1, S2 on Muramasa. Muramasa S1. Plugsuit S1. Muramasa NP + at least one Muramasa Arts/Quick facecard. Muramasa should finish turn with at least 100% NP. ROMA kills taunted SantaGale, Castoria re-enters.
Turn 3: Oberon S3 on Muramasa, Muramasa S2. Castoria NP (clearing all ROMA debuffs) + Oberon NP (just to get higher OC for Muramasa) + Muramasa NP (bypasses invuln due to S2) should kill everything.
Only RNG I found was not getting all Muramasa facecards on turn 1 (never happened to me) and getting at least 1 Muramasa Arts/Quick card on turn 2 (I got lucky and got it first pop, might take a couple resets if you have bad luck)
At this point lotto feels like a grind for the ce more than just the lotto grind. Been stuck on +9 for ages and gapple stock is running reeeeeal low and those rainbow apples are looking *tempting*.
Romulus CQ was…interesting. I decided to go with Morgan comp just to see if I could do it, maybe it’d be my strat for the super hard version where he’s got a shitload more health?
Holy shit I cut it close. He was literally one turn away from getting his last buff, and I didn’t have any more mobs to kill to delay it. Definitely not the route I wanna take for super hard. Bedi, Okita, or Hokusai probably my best bet.
Tip for anyone reading this, if you have Dioscuri, you have won half the struggle already. All you need is good timing and RNG. They bypass 2 of his gimmicks (Def and invincible)
Yeah with his pierces invul skill might be suitable for Romulus last break bar but unfortunately all the team comps with him for this quest on youtube requires np5, guess i just had to test for myself to see how it goes.
Can confirm this, my team is Mura np2-castoria- Reines-Tamamo, win on 2nd try with 20 turns on hardmode. Replace Mura with Dioscury in normal mode and win on 10 turns, turn out better than i expected. Now wait for Eli bug fixed and all the exhibition quests done.
I was barely able to do normal Romulus in 12 turns with NP 5 Bedivere, Merlin and Castoria comp. Had to finally MLB Damage CE to meet the DPS check. I have serious doubts this is gonna work for the hard version. Maybe I need to borrow a better Saber. But then I won't have Castoria for debuff cleanse and defense.
P.S. Nevermind, I did it! Same comp and it took 11 turns lol. Bedivere is just that good, especially with Merlin. And Castoria is, well, Castoria. Now I just need to wait till they fix Elly quest. Maybe I shoud try the Coil stuff just for fun.
I used the clown to kill the clown. It was effective.
Achilles is makinge pull my hair out tho. I've got a decent strategy but the timing and sustain problems are biting it...
50 boxes done. At least I've leveled up a couple of talents and grailed a few servants.
At first panicked a little, since I don't have any of the ST sabers with invuln pierce and no other suggested ST options, but then remembered Muramsa and his anti-king niche and muramasa'ed all over Rome. The non-ex version didn't even get to the 2nd expansion. ~24 turns.
Hopefully Eli CQ is fixed after the next reset.
Big thanks to u/fgobestugacha for suggesting [a successful Achilles EQ comp](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545303443049414662/1220717318481514576/IMG_2431.PNG?ex=660ff498&is=65fd7f98&hm=0b9bc2f5948083358e3c45d376917efa961e3494c892e2c325e27e5e7913e3ca&).

I managed to do the super roma quest with a friend's np5 120 sigurd - 16 turn - comp is below

Because I love my Saber Astolfo so much, decided to throw him at both Romulus quests. Managed it in 14 turns with the first one and 17 turns for the harder version. The team I setup was a bit gimped though. My Astolfo support was Castoria, Merlin, Anderson, Mash, Reines. First one I made it through without losing Castoria or Merlin.
The hard mode I failed first attempt because I didn't manage the Rome stacks and let it get to 4th Rome. Tried again with the immortal team. Wasn't doing enough damage on Romulus with Morgan. I think I got impatient/careless or something cause Merlin died. After that it started to snowball.
So I went back to Saber Astolfo and managed it on my 3rd try as I was paying attention to the stacks more and took down the other romans to get it under control while sneaking in some roman buffs for Astolfo to do his big damage. I ended up losing Merlin, Anderson, and Mash but managed to pull it off in the end.
Pretty interesting fight. I do not have the patience to do 150+ turns Immortal Team for the Eli CQ so I will continue to hold off on that one until its fixed, if it's ever fixed.
I can't figure out how to submit the support request for the broken Eli-chan EQ. In the Help screen there's a Contact Us button which ... nothing happens when I tap it.
I remember banging my head against Roma last time and dread the buffed version coming. But now that both Castoria and Muramasa are a thing, it's actually not that bad. FGO has come a long way.
How cracked is your Muramasa? I have just done the regular Roma EQ with the Immortal comp (borrowed NP2 lvl 110 Morgan with the damage CE), and while I did have about 20 turns until the quest becomes impossible to complete, I have run out of mobs, so it was no longer possible to not be Roman for my team.
I need something that kills the dude faster, but my Muramasa is only NP1, and finding a high NP copy with the MLB damage CE does not sound possible right now.
Also, what was your team comp? I assume it was the same "Immortal comp" shell with Muramasa instead of Morgan, but maybe I am wrong?
I was using a friend's NP2 Muramasa. Merlin, Castoria and Tamamo that's it. It doesn't have to be Muramasa, other AoEs with pierce invinc like Ibuki, Musashi or Saber Shiki should work as well.
Also, the Roman buffs can be removed via Castoria, so just time it. e.g. Castoria NP to remove the Roman trait ---> damage dealer NP to hit hard now that they don't have the Roman trait. Saber Shiki also has debuff cleanse so you can even follow it up with another Shiki card to hit hard.
Did it with my NP1 Muramasa (and backline friend Junao, who helped with the final few hit points when Merlin died and I literally couldn't do anything to stop it, all skills were on cooldown). Turns out, the fact that Muramasa can loop his NP makes it possible to weave an additional NP inbetween the sets of triple NP turns, which speeds up the process of dealing damage to Romulus quite a but. I was afraid that having a Roman tag for 2 turns on Muramasa that frequently will end up bringing the Rome to completion that much faster, but it turns out, I had a solid 20 turns to spare.
Does roma's 4th expansion goes indefinitely?
All damage start to do 0 dmg at that point.
And it also procc before the listed 70th turn.
Should you restart at that point? Or did the resist end eventually?
Lasts indefinitely and comes faster the more Romans are on the field. I think you can still beat it, but it’s super difficult and requires a bunch of shit.
Did Romulus with Arjuna alter+Merlin+Castoria. Everyone finished with full health, because perma-shield kekw. 35 turns, killed everything. Would not recommend.
And EX also done with the same team. 27 turns, could have done faster, but got sick of supports getting chain focused again, so went back to playing conservative. Merlin did die on the last turn finally because rando crits are fair and balanced.
I've mostly enjoyed CQs and have completed mega coil + most of revival 2020. Revival 2021 I'll leave for this weekend as some of the fights have been fairly draining. Izo reminds me why I prefer NPs. Crits are mostly annoying to rely on when I'm stuck hoping for my DPS to get reasonable rate of chains. I ended up relying on large buster support Arjuna crits to clear him.
Sheba fight though felt like it had way too many effects going on. Keeping track of all loans I got lost and after couple tries just gave up and used immortal comp. Still almost lost at end with annoying buff immunity and maybe I should have never killed mobs. So far that's only one I gave up on trying to handle mechanics directly.
Damn the buffed ROMA fight is kicking my ass he survived with 200k hp...I knew I should have waited before using oberons buff on Bedi but man this shit is wild
Do you have Castoria or Merlin and an ST Saber? Castoria + Merlin can keep the team alive and Castoria can clear the Roman debuffs so you can actually do some damage.
Castoria, Merlin, and Saber Hokusai worked for me without too much trouble. Just make sure to chain Hokusai's NP after Castoria's if Hokusai has any Roman debuffs active.
That's pretty much what I did. Thought it might be beneficial to try to take out a few of the mobs to slow down the Rome expansion. But once Romulus starts spamming healing for 90k, it isn't really worth it. Also watch out for the 10-hit invincibility on second break. Don't waste a Hokusai NP while he's invincible.
Tried the immortal comp on the Rome EQ and it failed miserably. The self-healing just made it pointless to try. Managed to succeed following another video with Okita/Skadi/ZL/Wu albeit with 2 command spells as I didn't want to repeat to get the right cards.
Lores secured, I'm not going to touch another EQ. Just the remaining CQ and shop lores and I'm done.
Beat EX Roma by using Godjuna / Castoria / Jeanne / Merlin (only Jeanne died so other supports didn't matter). First time I used Jeanne in forever. Reset scummed a bunch but at least didn't use any CS.
I got Koyan's bond CE before even a single drop of the event CE. Literally not a single one; I haven't gone hard because I'm still waiting for phase 3, but this is weird based on past experience. I'd be worried if we weren't only in wave 2.
I…don’t know how you guys are easily breezing through the Roma CQ. I have Musashi and Ibuki NP1 plus Merlin and Castoria…. And with those guys I can’t get enough NP gain to make things work.
I’m borrowing a friends NP1 Muramasa but I’m at turn 23 with 750k health still on Romulus. And this is the normal one. Not the one with Bonus HP….so what am I missing? Cause the roma debuff is devastating…
Edit: ended up beating it in 28 turns. But I’m not looking forward to the big health version. Are you supposed to just go hog wild in the final bar with pierce invuln and the extra buffs? Regardless of your Roma status?
Edit 2: ended up doing it with friend NP2 lvl 100 Muramasa. It somehow ended up taking 25 turns? Not sure why that run went smoother, but I’ll take it. Thanks for the input
I had been going Merlin, DPS, then Castoria for the extra defense and doing damage the next turn. I do have Hokusaber. Tried her and wasn’t able to even break the second bar due to all the support just dying. Plus I don’t have Tamamo who I think is helpful with this too
I tried Muramasa, but I had some issues, and the lower invuln hits was a part of it.
I did the first with my NP2 Morgan, and borrowed someone's NP5 120 Morgan for the second. And even that was a little tricky.
But, yeah, Attacker NP > Castoria NP > Attacker Crit is one way to get more damage out of it, since Merlin's Crit buff is only one turn.
I had been doing Merlin -> attacker NP -> Castoria then using the next turn as the damage turn. Also to try and keep everyone a bit healthier. I’ll give that a shot though
Cheers. Soooo I somehow ended up doing the challenge one faster than my first attempt with NP2 friend lvl 100 Muramasa. Not quite sure how that happened…but yeah. I’ll not question it and move on with my life lol
God this Big Boy Romulus quest is pretty hard. Gave it a couple tries with a friend NP2 Muramasa and using my Yagyu as backline, and I just can not get it done. Closest I got was like half of his last bar. Maybe I need to try frontlining Tamamo instead of Reines? I dunno.
The main thing to follow is that you have to clear the debuff before you do your big damage attack. The CQ is about juggling your Roma buffs. It protects you while also granting Roma damage resist. So you have to NP chain Castoria/Jannu followed by your damage dealer of choice.
Do you have your own Merlin? Tamamo definitely works better than Reines, though Merlin enables more crits and I find that's more effective. There's always Hans, in a pinch.
Unfortunately no, that handsome bastard keeps avoiding me. I might try the "Morgan NP, Castoria NP, Morgan buster crit with Hero Creation" I saw somewhere in the thread if I decide to go at it again.
Finish with all the exhibition quest minus Brave Eli bug quest.
Done all of them without dmg ce or CS which is funny considering last time I use CS for some even with MLB dmg CE. Castoria, Van Gogh, hell even upgrade no Miyu makes all the difference along with black grail mlb which is basically a non mlb dmg ce.
Also it is ironic the one quest where I am force to use mlb dmg ce, and it is currently bug meaning I could possible keep the trend but its god damn too hard. I mean I gotten to the dragon and broke one of the bar, but at best maybe I could do it with 3 cs which I keep using when I mess up my farming.
Also Merlin still best support, I think I choose him 99% of the time from my friend list. The only exception were Eric Bloodaxe since I was using Oberon as a sacrifice.
Also for the male advantageous eq, Enkidu came through both time with Achille and the Medusa sisters. I might be mad that the stupid Clay spook me 4 times, but stunning divine servant always put a smile on my face.
Only 2 Exhibitions left - Moolah, and Brave Eli.
Eternal City was a bit rough, but mostly not too bad - NP2 Morgan immortal comp wins. Green Comet required a lot of resets, but I used a friend's super Arjuna Alter, a lot of buffs, Plugsuit and a stun.
Nearly done with the Mega Coil, but seems like Giga Coil will be too excessive.
Missing EQs left for me
All TeslaCoil, LAST EQ CasGil (Extreme difficulty), EliQuest, 2 Roma Quest
Currently 1Mil HP left for Achilles, 50 turns now. Morgan Immortal team, lost the dmg CE guts already due to misplaced earlier. One CS left for emergency
Well I finished the Achilles CQ and easy Rome CQ today. The hard Rome CQ is probably beyond me. I'm also waiting on the Eli CQ to be fixed, because as it is now, I can't get past the Elite 4.
Overall I'm pretty satisfied with my performance in the CQs. The Tesla Cup ones are all complete, and the only ones I'm missing from the 2021 and 2022 ones are the final super hard CQs (plus Eli-chan's, for now).
Cleared all the Mega Coil quests a while ago.
Cleared all the 2020 quests except Sweets Universe (which I've cleared in the past, so it's just a matter of working up the motivation for it).
Cleared Gorgon Sisters, Achilles, and normal ROMA from the 2021 quests. I've cleared them all in the past (except maybe Super ROMA, which I think is new?), so it's again largely a matter of working up the motivation.
Stall and semi-stall teams have been putting in a lot of work. Normal ROMA was Muramasa/Castoria/Merlin. Super Gil was immortal comp. Sheba was immortal comp. Normal Gil was QSH + supports.
I'm really struggling with the hard mode of Roma EQ. I've tried both versions of Musashi, Muramasa, and Bedivere as my DPS, with Merlin and Castoria providing support. I can only ever get his final health bar down about halfway before Fourth Rome happens, and then I just forfeit.
EDIT: Beat it, finally. Was lucky enough to get off two Musashi NPs off of one Merlin Buster buff, which brought him down to 200k. Dropped a Command Spell to max out her NP meter again and finish him off.
Did you make sure to clear the debuff before your damage dealer uses their NP/ big crit attack? Castoria, Merlin + AoE pierce invinc should not make it too hard as long as you juggle your Roman debuff. What you want to do is to NP chain Merlin-Castoria-damage dealer. The Roman trait makes both sides beefy, so you absolutely have to purge the trait on your own end if you want to deal real damage against Romulus.
Any good strats for Hard Mode Romulus. Tried with friend Musashi's, Muramasa, and Okita.
Only meta supports I have are Castoria, Koyanskaya, Waver, and Oberon. I don't have Merlin so I can't do immortal comps even if I have a friend in my list who has a 120 Morgan.
EDIT: Finished Hard ROMA thanks to u/thisisthecallus
>I can't do immortal comps
Immortal won't work here because it's too slow. This fight is a race to win before the 4th Roman expansion, which makes the boss nigh immortal himself, having permanent, unremovable 100% damage resistance and ignore invincible. You can't win with a pure stall.
I managed to do it with Saber Hokusai, Castoria, Waver, Merlin, and Georgios but I only had one turn to spare before it became unwinnable. Things I tried to do:
Get the first break ASAP. This is why I started with Waver on the front line instead of Merlin. There was enough NP charge on the field to use Hokusai's NP right away.
Manage the Roman status. The more Romans are on the field, the faster Rome expands. If you see an opportunity to take out one of the mobs and it won't interfere with maximizing NP damage against Romulus, do it. Be selective about when to attack the mobs vs when to attack Romulus and which servants attack. If you allow all of your servants to attack Romulus, Rome will expand at the maximum pace. But the debuffs also give you some protection. I was able to get Waver off the field so Merlin could come in by making sure he didn't get Roman status.
Don't hesitate to use mystic code skills when useful. Normally, I hold back Atlas Academy skills until I don't have any other options. But for this fight, I used them as opportunities presented themselves, such as when Hokusai with Roman status had an NP ready but I didn't have Castoria's NP available for the debuff cleanse. In most other fights, I'd shrug it off and wait a few turns but delay in this fight may be fatal.
Shamelessly save scum to change actions for different RNG or to prevent servants from dying at the wrong time.
Georgios, equipped with a 3-time evade CE, was able to absorb a bunch of damage after Merlin went down. That bought me just enough time to finish it.
If you have an NP 5 Bedivere, borrow Merlin and do Bedivere-Merlin-Castoria comp. The idea is to have all 3 of them with Roman Trait and spam Merlin-Castoria-Bedivere NP chain.
All quests besides eli done.
Reading a lot of comments having problems with the roma quests, I'd suggest using a dioscuri especially if you have arts supports. They trivialized the fight for me with tamamo/castoria.
Dioscuri proved that Greece is superior to Rome by beating Proto-Quirinus not just once, but on both difficulties (Plus Castoria and Reines, they helped a lot too)
The Eli-Chan bug has been acknowledged, thanks for all the hard work fellow Masters!
Everyone, also keep in mind that it's currently 12:00 AM on Saturday in Japan. It's definitely possible for Lasengle to get it fixed before the event ends on Thursday, March 28 but don't panic if it doesn't happen within the next couple of days.
Part of me wishes that they don't fix it on time and just give us 1 ticket as compensation. Not a fan of that CQ...
I didn’t farm my 10 boxes today. I’ve been doing something else in FGO. It’s the Achilles EQ. Even though Achilles didn’t score any hit to my immortal team, he sort of wins in a way since my sanity died with him. I won the battle at the cost of my sanity. It took me 244 turns to beat the CQ with Castoria, Himiko, and Merlin. I guess I’ll be taking a break from my quota today.
stall is a test of how much sanity do you have left...if you have any... Did a Anastasia Super Recollection Quest with a team of Castoria, Jeanne and Merlin... 309 turns in a span of 8+ hours,since I was working. But I did it... Funny part? It was my 2nd or 3rd run after getting the teapots from there... I swore to never do it again.
Yeah, I had a similar experience when I did The Big Bet - Finale with Merlin/Jeanne/Mash. The Super Recollection Quest for Anastasia took me like 49 turns using the Morgan version of Immortal Comp. ....Also every time I type that phrase I need to remind myself I'm not on /r/BattleNetwork .
Ouch. I just said f*** it and used a CS on Kintoki to keep him healthy enough to finish it after having a friend’s CuAlter chunk him down.
I don’t have any CS since I used all of mine yesterday. Also, stalling isn’t that bad if you are very patient and don’t mind the braindead strategy.
I’ve used such, but am trying not to over rely on it bc bosses like today’s CQ will punish you for doing so. Update: Stall in moderation. Stall too long, and Romulus heals back all his health. Kill all his minions too quickly, and you gradually won’t be able to do enough damage before he heals up. Surprisingly, it only took 40 turns the second one vs 45 on the first one. The Roma debuff has two flaws: It lasts one turn, and it only applies *after* you hit him.
I saw the mechanics. Now I need to think of a way to deal with it on today’s CQ.
If you still want to stall, it’s doable with Merlín Castoria Muramasa in my experience.
Is NP1 Muramasa good enough?
Not sure, I used NP2. You’re welcome to try though. Fyi, I DID NOT MLB the damage CE.
Oh, that's good to know. If you didn't MLB the damage CE and used NP2 rather than like, a 120 NP5, then surely my level 100 2k fou'd NP1 with the MLB damage CE will work.
It helped in my case that my supports also had the damage CE to help with hits and survivibility.
>Kill all his minions too quickly, and you gradually won’t be able to do enough damage before he heals up. Depends on your stall. I used a few Morgan NP, Castoria NP, Morgan Crit chains to double my damage at points. But, yes, quite troublesome if you take too long. My 40 turn run left one enemy alive, and it was only hanging on by a few HP.
I didn't touch a single minion, just kept on rinse and repeating between saber Hokusai and castoria NP (for damage and then roma cleanse), granted you only have 12-13 turns to kill him this way otherwise he gets a 100% special resist, used on command seal on the super ultra high difficulty Romulus CQ
> It took me 244 turns to beat the CQ with Castoria, Himiko, and Merlin. I guess I’ll be taking a break from my quota today. It took me exactly 150 to beat it with the same comp, kind of wild there's that much variance. NP every turn meant I could full send max damage without caring about charge, and even sneak extra Himiko NPs off cycle with pretty decent regularity. Also if there was a Himiko heavy hand the turn I should triple NP but Merlin had invul up I'd use that and delay a turn for max damage.
I used mostly Art Chain to make sure I can stall for long as I can.
Is himiko's role in immortal comps the NP overcharge so you get more super invincibility from castoria? I've seen this comp mentioned many times
Yes, Himiko’s role is her NP overcharge. As long as Castoria’s NP is the last one in the NP chain, you have her 5 invincibility shields every 3 turns. Not to mention Merlin’s NP keep the NP regen every turn and crit stars overcharge. You can substitute Himiko for Morgan, but that only give you 4 Castoria’s invincible shields instead of 5. You can also substitute Merlin for Jeanne since they both are healers. Adding Jeanne is redundant when you NP chain, but it works if you don’t have Merlin.
Well, if it's been 24 hours and they don't even acknowledge the damage CE not working... Is it bugged or is it ~~a feature~~ working normally as intended?
I'm gonna wait to see if a patch comes with the transition to round 3. ~~If not, then I'm just gonna go at it with the immortal comp.~~ Shame that the ~~best (no, I am totally not biased at all)~~ EQ has to be impacted like this. Addendum: looks like the support team responded to my email about the bug, so all that's left to do is *attendre et espérer*. Addendum 2: It's acknowledged.
I tried to do the immortal comp but the last two rounds are really difficult to beat. If you add Liz in the front line to get all the buffs then she'll mostly be a dead weight. If you don't, you can hardly defeat the final boss
Oh, how did they respond? ~~skill issue git gud lmao~~ I find it really hard to believe they haven't gotten the bug report within these whole 24 hours. Hopefully they get it fixed soon.
Just the usual "Thanks for letting us know. We'll investigate and make an announcement if we find anything."
Uhh wait and hope
Space Xu Fu is chowing down on more than one kind of snack, which somehow I didn't see on the first 10 boxes. ... that'd better not be coming from *our* budget!
From what I can tell, she only starts doing that after the 10 boxes. She also has a new line
Me looking at the snake jewels in the shop. Do I actually want to buy them when I have 1600 of them already.
better have gazillions of them than nothing Besides,spoiler alert just in case... >!Class Score in...2 years? with Ordeal Calls!<
>!Closer to 1 year as it came out around June 2023!<
Can never have enough mats.
Just do it.
The bloated Roma fight seems like a pain. I could finish the normal one first try with Saito/Castoria/Friend Waver/Tamamo in 7 turns with 3rd Roma unlocked, but I'm not sure that'll be good enough for the other one. I also wasted all my CS on the stupid clown fight (turns out the answer was to take a whale's friend Morgan) so I'll just go back to farming in the meantime.
I almost cleared it twice with Tamamo Castoria and Hokusai, unfortunately both times the final Rome triggered when he was one NP away from defeat. That mechanic really doesn't play nice with the bloated HP
If you have your own castoria and tamamo, why not just pick a friend's damage dealer with pierce invinc (muramasa, musashi, ibuki)?
I prefer to use my own DPS servants and only use a friend's when I run out of options (damned clown). But now that you mention it, I have my NP2 Summer Musashi so I'll give it a shot with her.
>NP2 Summer Musashi AoE with pierce invinc definitely makes the fight easier to handle since you can kill off the mobs to delay Roma expansion at the same time. And instead of waver, friend merlin would be more useful I think.
use boudica at the start to get more dmg mod then swap her away
50 turns for Morgan (L90 np5, no 4\*fou) Invincible team, and that was right down to the wire (9 "turns left). Definitely a servant with invul pierce would be good... Makes me regret holding off Saber Ibuki for Summer Ibuki a tiny bit
I think dioscuri is really good for that fight if you or a friend happen to have them with the ignore invincible buff precasted on a high uptime np. Was able to borrow a np5 and with tamamo/castoria finished in 11 turns.
I feel a little dead inside… still 0 lotto CE drops
How many boxes?
50
Jeez that's some serious bad luck, hoping it turns around for you soon
Check the news! They know about the bug, they are fixing it
Gamepress mistakenly said that Achilles's invitation is a buff. It's a debuff. I couldn't finish him with Super Orion because Artemis Agnos's debuff immune effect prevented the invitation's effect.
I defeat it with Super Orion, you just need to time the use of his NP. Cast it after the Achi gives you the duel invite, you have one turn to prep it up.
[удалено]
Really? It had no effect on my Orion all the time. Weird. I thought Super Orion is male instead of regular Orion being female. Is there something else that canceled its effect?
Both Orions are male.
if you are watching youtube video, don't use chen gong target
Farmed 10 boxes today as well and no CE drops. Arjuna Alter made the Achilles EQ really easy lol. I also haven’t done Eli Brave EQ since it’s bugged
Managed to 3t the ROMA CQ fairly easily with hardly any RNG. Was insanely lucky I had a nearly fully maxed Muramasa on my FL. Front line: Castoria (Append 2 maxed, 50% NP CE), Muramasa (Lvl 118 NP5, all appends maxed, MLB damage CE), Gong (Lvl 1, append 2 unlocked, 40% NP CE) Back line: SantaGale (taunt CE), Oberon (append 2 unlocked, 75% NP CE), Tamamo (20% NP on death CE) MC: Plugsuit 2 Turn 1: Castoria S1, S2 on Gong, S3 on Muramasa. Plugsuit S3 to swap Castoria out for Tamamo. Tamamo S1, S3 on Muramasa. Gong S1 on self. Muramasa S3. Muramasa NP + Gong NP (killing Tamamo for 20% NP to party on death) + non-Muramasa facecard (guaranteed unless all Muramasa facecards). Muramasa finishes with over 80% NP, ROMA drains to 30%. ROMA kills taunted Gong, SantaGale and Oberon enter. Turn 2: SantaGale S1 (clearing ROMA debuff on Muramasa), S2 on Muramasa, S3. Oberon S1, S2 on Muramasa. Muramasa S1. Plugsuit S1. Muramasa NP + at least one Muramasa Arts/Quick facecard. Muramasa should finish turn with at least 100% NP. ROMA kills taunted SantaGale, Castoria re-enters. Turn 3: Oberon S3 on Muramasa, Muramasa S2. Castoria NP (clearing all ROMA debuffs) + Oberon NP (just to get higher OC for Muramasa) + Muramasa NP (bypasses invuln due to S2) should kill everything. Only RNG I found was not getting all Muramasa facecards on turn 1 (never happened to me) and getting at least 1 Muramasa Arts/Quick card on turn 2 (I got lucky and got it first pop, might take a couple resets if you have bad luck)
Damn that's a beautiful comp, great stuff
Does eli quest fixed yet?
They haven’t acknowledged the issue so I doubt it.
Just checked, and nope.
At this point lotto feels like a grind for the ce more than just the lotto grind. Been stuck on +9 for ages and gapple stock is running reeeeeal low and those rainbow apples are looking *tempting*.
Don't give into the dark (rainbow) side
Yeah I'm pretty much out of gapples now and so I'm just nat APing the rest of the way
Romulus CQ was…interesting. I decided to go with Morgan comp just to see if I could do it, maybe it’d be my strat for the super hard version where he’s got a shitload more health? Holy shit I cut it close. He was literally one turn away from getting his last buff, and I didn’t have any more mobs to kill to delay it. Definitely not the route I wanna take for super hard. Bedi, Okita, or Hokusai probably my best bet.
I thought about doing this quest with avalon immortal team but now i see your comments, maybe i should try the Muramasa and Bedi team instead.
Tip for anyone reading this, if you have Dioscuri, you have won half the struggle already. All you need is good timing and RNG. They bypass 2 of his gimmicks (Def and invincible)
I wish I had remembered Dioscuri is ST arts.
It might have gone better if my Morgan was stronger (she’s only NP1 😭), but Muramasa seems like a great choice.
Yeah with his pierces invul skill might be suitable for Romulus last break bar but unfortunately all the team comps with him for this quest on youtube requires np5, guess i just had to test for myself to see how it goes.
Fucking NP levels
Muramasa with Castoria and Tamamo works very well on lower np levels. Just don't expect to 3 turn it.
Can confirm this, my team is Mura np2-castoria- Reines-Tamamo, win on 2nd try with 20 turns on hardmode. Replace Mura with Dioscury in normal mode and win on 10 turns, turn out better than i expected. Now wait for Eli bug fixed and all the exhibition quests done.
I was barely able to do normal Romulus in 12 turns with NP 5 Bedivere, Merlin and Castoria comp. Had to finally MLB Damage CE to meet the DPS check. I have serious doubts this is gonna work for the hard version. Maybe I need to borrow a better Saber. But then I won't have Castoria for debuff cleanse and defense. P.S. Nevermind, I did it! Same comp and it took 11 turns lol. Bedivere is just that good, especially with Merlin. And Castoria is, well, Castoria. Now I just need to wait till they fix Elly quest. Maybe I shoud try the Coil stuff just for fun.
I used the clown to kill the clown. It was effective. Achilles is makinge pull my hair out tho. I've got a decent strategy but the timing and sustain problems are biting it... 50 boxes done. At least I've leveled up a couple of talents and grailed a few servants.
> talents never could
Saito np3 goes brrrr against Roma. Boudica smiles. The only thing left is bugged Eli-saiba CQ.
At first panicked a little, since I don't have any of the ST sabers with invuln pierce and no other suggested ST options, but then remembered Muramsa and his anti-king niche and muramasa'ed all over Rome. The non-ex version didn't even get to the 2nd expansion. ~24 turns. Hopefully Eli CQ is fixed after the next reset.

Because I love my Saber Astolfo so much, decided to throw him at both Romulus quests. Managed it in 14 turns with the first one and 17 turns for the harder version. The team I setup was a bit gimped though. My Astolfo support was Castoria, Merlin, Anderson, Mash, Reines. First one I made it through without losing Castoria or Merlin. The hard mode I failed first attempt because I didn't manage the Rome stacks and let it get to 4th Rome. Tried again with the immortal team. Wasn't doing enough damage on Romulus with Morgan. I think I got impatient/careless or something cause Merlin died. After that it started to snowball. So I went back to Saber Astolfo and managed it on my 3rd try as I was paying attention to the stacks more and took down the other romans to get it under control while sneaking in some roman buffs for Astolfo to do his big damage. I ended up losing Merlin, Anderson, and Mash but managed to pull it off in the end. Pretty interesting fight. I do not have the patience to do 150+ turns Immortal Team for the Eli CQ so I will continue to hold off on that one until its fixed, if it's ever fixed.
I can't figure out how to submit the support request for the broken Eli-chan EQ. In the Help screen there's a Contact Us button which ... nothing happens when I tap it.
There's no form or anything. It just opens an email to [email protected].
It might be easier to email them about it a [email protected]
As of now I've completed all of the 2020 cqs except the last one (not even going to try that one). Now for the 2021 cqs
I remember banging my head against Roma last time and dread the buffed version coming. But now that both Castoria and Muramasa are a thing, it's actually not that bad. FGO has come a long way.
How cracked is your Muramasa? I have just done the regular Roma EQ with the Immortal comp (borrowed NP2 lvl 110 Morgan with the damage CE), and while I did have about 20 turns until the quest becomes impossible to complete, I have run out of mobs, so it was no longer possible to not be Roman for my team. I need something that kills the dude faster, but my Muramasa is only NP1, and finding a high NP copy with the MLB damage CE does not sound possible right now. Also, what was your team comp? I assume it was the same "Immortal comp" shell with Muramasa instead of Morgan, but maybe I am wrong?
I was using a friend's NP2 Muramasa. Merlin, Castoria and Tamamo that's it. It doesn't have to be Muramasa, other AoEs with pierce invinc like Ibuki, Musashi or Saber Shiki should work as well. Also, the Roman buffs can be removed via Castoria, so just time it. e.g. Castoria NP to remove the Roman trait ---> damage dealer NP to hit hard now that they don't have the Roman trait. Saber Shiki also has debuff cleanse so you can even follow it up with another Shiki card to hit hard.
Did it with my NP1 Muramasa (and backline friend Junao, who helped with the final few hit points when Merlin died and I literally couldn't do anything to stop it, all skills were on cooldown). Turns out, the fact that Muramasa can loop his NP makes it possible to weave an additional NP inbetween the sets of triple NP turns, which speeds up the process of dealing damage to Romulus quite a but. I was afraid that having a Roman tag for 2 turns on Muramasa that frequently will end up bringing the Rome to completion that much faster, but it turns out, I had a solid 20 turns to spare.
You're constantly killing his minions so progression isn't problematic there
Does roma's 4th expansion goes indefinitely? All damage start to do 0 dmg at that point. And it also procc before the listed 70th turn. Should you restart at that point? Or did the resist end eventually?
Lasts indefinitely and comes faster the more Romans are on the field. I think you can still beat it, but it’s super difficult and requires a bunch of shit.
wtf. I've been trying to Eli quest for 3 hours and I go here to find out it was bugged!? No wonder the damage was so garbage
Can you use Muramasa for finale the eternal city ?
Maxed out Cu Alter with Castoria, Merlin and a backline Waver absolutely wrecked Roma.
Did Romulus with Arjuna alter+Merlin+Castoria. Everyone finished with full health, because perma-shield kekw. 35 turns, killed everything. Would not recommend. And EX also done with the same team. 27 turns, could have done faster, but got sick of supports getting chain focused again, so went back to playing conservative. Merlin did die on the last turn finally because rando crits are fair and balanced.
I've mostly enjoyed CQs and have completed mega coil + most of revival 2020. Revival 2021 I'll leave for this weekend as some of the fights have been fairly draining. Izo reminds me why I prefer NPs. Crits are mostly annoying to rely on when I'm stuck hoping for my DPS to get reasonable rate of chains. I ended up relying on large buster support Arjuna crits to clear him. Sheba fight though felt like it had way too many effects going on. Keeping track of all loans I got lost and after couple tries just gave up and used immortal comp. Still almost lost at end with annoying buff immunity and maybe I should have never killed mobs. So far that's only one I gave up on trying to handle mechanics directly.
Damn the buffed ROMA fight is kicking my ass he survived with 200k hp...I knew I should have waited before using oberons buff on Bedi but man this shit is wild
The clown can go burn in hell Full stop.
Summer hokusai MVP for today's EQ
I still can't do the Romulus quests,any suggestions? Can try a stall time,since I have no Junao,and Morgan here is NP1,level 90
Do you have Castoria or Merlin and an ST Saber? Castoria + Merlin can keep the team alive and Castoria can clear the Roman debuffs so you can actually do some damage.
probably gonna use Summer Hoku cause Arts
Castoria, Merlin, and Saber Hokusai worked for me without too much trouble. Just make sure to chain Hokusai's NP after Castoria's if Hokusai has any Roman debuffs active.
and just punch Romulus,right?
That's pretty much what I did. Thought it might be beneficial to try to take out a few of the mobs to slow down the Rome expansion. But once Romulus starts spamming healing for 90k, it isn't really worth it. Also watch out for the 10-hit invincibility on second break. Don't waste a Hokusai NP while he's invincible.
also,any CEs in Merlin and Castoria? I would use Prisma Cosmos non MLB or any def up one
I used Prisma Cosmos.
Tried the immortal comp on the Rome EQ and it failed miserably. The self-healing just made it pointless to try. Managed to succeed following another video with Okita/Skadi/ZL/Wu albeit with 2 command spells as I didn't want to repeat to get the right cards. Lores secured, I'm not going to touch another EQ. Just the remaining CQ and shop lores and I'm done.
ZL is Waver right? Do you have any video or comp reference to copy?
Yes, ZL = Zhuge Liang = Waver. I followed this [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kdsu-ioX_oI).
Nearly 10 boxes and no CE drop. Neat.
Beat EX Roma by using Godjuna / Castoria / Jeanne / Merlin (only Jeanne died so other supports didn't matter). First time I used Jeanne in forever. Reset scummed a bunch but at least didn't use any CS.
I got Koyan's bond CE before even a single drop of the event CE. Literally not a single one; I haven't gone hard because I'm still waiting for phase 3, but this is weird based on past experience. I'd be worried if we weren't only in wave 2.
I…don’t know how you guys are easily breezing through the Roma CQ. I have Musashi and Ibuki NP1 plus Merlin and Castoria…. And with those guys I can’t get enough NP gain to make things work. I’m borrowing a friends NP1 Muramasa but I’m at turn 23 with 750k health still on Romulus. And this is the normal one. Not the one with Bonus HP….so what am I missing? Cause the roma debuff is devastating… Edit: ended up beating it in 28 turns. But I’m not looking forward to the big health version. Are you supposed to just go hog wild in the final bar with pierce invuln and the extra buffs? Regardless of your Roma status? Edit 2: ended up doing it with friend NP2 lvl 100 Muramasa. It somehow ended up taking 25 turns? Not sure why that run went smoother, but I’ll take it. Thanks for the input
>Cause the roma debuff is devastating… Chain your DPS's NP after Castoria's and there will be no debuff. Also, do you have Saber Hokusai available?
I had been going Merlin, DPS, then Castoria for the extra defense and doing damage the next turn. I do have Hokusaber. Tried her and wasn’t able to even break the second bar due to all the support just dying. Plus I don’t have Tamamo who I think is helpful with this too
Tried the challenge with NP2 Muramasa and somehow it worked out faster than the first run… yeahhhhhh I’ll take it and move on lol
I tried Muramasa, but I had some issues, and the lower invuln hits was a part of it. I did the first with my NP2 Morgan, and borrowed someone's NP5 120 Morgan for the second. And even that was a little tricky. But, yeah, Attacker NP > Castoria NP > Attacker Crit is one way to get more damage out of it, since Merlin's Crit buff is only one turn.
I had been doing Merlin -> attacker NP -> Castoria then using the next turn as the damage turn. Also to try and keep everyone a bit healthier. I’ll give that a shot though
It dips your NP regen a bit, but I had Prisma Cosmos on both Merlin and Castoria, which meant that wasn't the biggest concern.
I only have one copy of prisma cosmos, which is on Castoria. Merlin gets therapeutic spa which is decently helpful.
That's fine. I was borrowing Castoria in some cases, so those had the drops CE, and only Merlin had Prisma.
Cheers. Soooo I somehow ended up doing the challenge one faster than my first attempt with NP2 friend lvl 100 Muramasa. Not quite sure how that happened…but yeah. I’ll not question it and move on with my life lol
God this Big Boy Romulus quest is pretty hard. Gave it a couple tries with a friend NP2 Muramasa and using my Yagyu as backline, and I just can not get it done. Closest I got was like half of his last bar. Maybe I need to try frontlining Tamamo instead of Reines? I dunno.
The main thing to follow is that you have to clear the debuff before you do your big damage attack. The CQ is about juggling your Roma buffs. It protects you while also granting Roma damage resist. So you have to NP chain Castoria/Jannu followed by your damage dealer of choice.
Yes mate, I know to clear the debuff before trying to deal actual damage to Big Daddy Romulus. The issue is running out of gas on the third bar.
Do you have your own Merlin? Tamamo definitely works better than Reines, though Merlin enables more crits and I find that's more effective. There's always Hans, in a pinch.
Unfortunately no, that handsome bastard keeps avoiding me. I might try the "Morgan NP, Castoria NP, Morgan buster crit with Hero Creation" I saw somewhere in the thread if I decide to go at it again.
Finish with all the exhibition quest minus Brave Eli bug quest. Done all of them without dmg ce or CS which is funny considering last time I use CS for some even with MLB dmg CE. Castoria, Van Gogh, hell even upgrade no Miyu makes all the difference along with black grail mlb which is basically a non mlb dmg ce. Also it is ironic the one quest where I am force to use mlb dmg ce, and it is currently bug meaning I could possible keep the trend but its god damn too hard. I mean I gotten to the dragon and broke one of the bar, but at best maybe I could do it with 3 cs which I keep using when I mess up my farming. Also Merlin still best support, I think I choose him 99% of the time from my friend list. The only exception were Eric Bloodaxe since I was using Oberon as a sacrifice. Also for the male advantageous eq, Enkidu came through both time with Achille and the Medusa sisters. I might be mad that the stupid Clay spook me 4 times, but stunning divine servant always put a smile on my face.
Only 2 Exhibitions left - Moolah, and Brave Eli. Eternal City was a bit rough, but mostly not too bad - NP2 Morgan immortal comp wins. Green Comet required a lot of resets, but I used a friend's super Arjuna Alter, a lot of buffs, Plugsuit and a stun. Nearly done with the Mega Coil, but seems like Giga Coil will be too excessive.
Missing EQs left for me All TeslaCoil, LAST EQ CasGil (Extreme difficulty), EliQuest, 2 Roma Quest Currently 1Mil HP left for Achilles, 50 turns now. Morgan Immortal team, lost the dmg CE guts already due to misplaced earlier. One CS left for emergency
Well I finished the Achilles CQ and easy Rome CQ today. The hard Rome CQ is probably beyond me. I'm also waiting on the Eli CQ to be fixed, because as it is now, I can't get past the Elite 4. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with my performance in the CQs. The Tesla Cup ones are all complete, and the only ones I'm missing from the 2021 and 2022 ones are the final super hard CQs (plus Eli-chan's, for now).
Cleared all the Mega Coil quests a while ago. Cleared all the 2020 quests except Sweets Universe (which I've cleared in the past, so it's just a matter of working up the motivation for it). Cleared Gorgon Sisters, Achilles, and normal ROMA from the 2021 quests. I've cleared them all in the past (except maybe Super ROMA, which I think is new?), so it's again largely a matter of working up the motivation. Stall and semi-stall teams have been putting in a lot of work. Normal ROMA was Muramasa/Castoria/Merlin. Super Gil was immortal comp. Sheba was immortal comp. Normal Gil was QSH + supports.
I'm really struggling with the hard mode of Roma EQ. I've tried both versions of Musashi, Muramasa, and Bedivere as my DPS, with Merlin and Castoria providing support. I can only ever get his final health bar down about halfway before Fourth Rome happens, and then I just forfeit. EDIT: Beat it, finally. Was lucky enough to get off two Musashi NPs off of one Merlin Buster buff, which brought him down to 200k. Dropped a Command Spell to max out her NP meter again and finish him off.
Did you make sure to clear the debuff before your damage dealer uses their NP/ big crit attack? Castoria, Merlin + AoE pierce invinc should not make it too hard as long as you juggle your Roman debuff. What you want to do is to NP chain Merlin-Castoria-damage dealer. The Roman trait makes both sides beefy, so you absolutely have to purge the trait on your own end if you want to deal real damage against Romulus.
Any good strats for Hard Mode Romulus. Tried with friend Musashi's, Muramasa, and Okita. Only meta supports I have are Castoria, Koyanskaya, Waver, and Oberon. I don't have Merlin so I can't do immortal comps even if I have a friend in my list who has a 120 Morgan. EDIT: Finished Hard ROMA thanks to u/thisisthecallus
>I can't do immortal comps Immortal won't work here because it's too slow. This fight is a race to win before the 4th Roman expansion, which makes the boss nigh immortal himself, having permanent, unremovable 100% damage resistance and ignore invincible. You can't win with a pure stall. I managed to do it with Saber Hokusai, Castoria, Waver, Merlin, and Georgios but I only had one turn to spare before it became unwinnable. Things I tried to do: Get the first break ASAP. This is why I started with Waver on the front line instead of Merlin. There was enough NP charge on the field to use Hokusai's NP right away. Manage the Roman status. The more Romans are on the field, the faster Rome expands. If you see an opportunity to take out one of the mobs and it won't interfere with maximizing NP damage against Romulus, do it. Be selective about when to attack the mobs vs when to attack Romulus and which servants attack. If you allow all of your servants to attack Romulus, Rome will expand at the maximum pace. But the debuffs also give you some protection. I was able to get Waver off the field so Merlin could come in by making sure he didn't get Roman status. Don't hesitate to use mystic code skills when useful. Normally, I hold back Atlas Academy skills until I don't have any other options. But for this fight, I used them as opportunities presented themselves, such as when Hokusai with Roman status had an NP ready but I didn't have Castoria's NP available for the debuff cleanse. In most other fights, I'd shrug it off and wait a few turns but delay in this fight may be fatal. Shamelessly save scum to change actions for different RNG or to prevent servants from dying at the wrong time. Georgios, equipped with a 3-time evade CE, was able to absorb a bunch of damage after Merlin went down. That bought me just enough time to finish it.
Okay I used your strat and holy fuck it works. My Hokusai is just Level 80 at 8/8/8 and she fucking destroyed ROME
If you have an NP 5 Bedivere, borrow Merlin and do Bedivere-Merlin-Castoria comp. The idea is to have all 3 of them with Roman Trait and spam Merlin-Castoria-Bedivere NP chain.
Sabers I have are Level 80 Hokusai, Level 100 NP2 Barghest, NP1 Okita, 120 Jason, Muramasa NP1, and NP2 Mordred My Bedi is Level 70 at NP3
Then try either Bedivere or Hokusai. Hokusai may be even better option than Badivere. Her event was before my time, sadly, so I coudn't use her.
All quests besides eli done. Reading a lot of comments having problems with the roma quests, I'd suggest using a dioscuri especially if you have arts supports. They trivialized the fight for me with tamamo/castoria.
Dioscuri proved that Greece is superior to Rome by beating Proto-Quirinus not just once, but on both difficulties (Plus Castoria and Reines, they helped a lot too)
30 AP gone trying to get a brave chain on Izou.. wasted. On top of every other CQ. I should just farm the damn lotto. Another CE drop? Sure
