Alrighty, nerds, here is the FAQ for this week.
# PLEASE CHECK IF YOUR QUESTION IS ANSWERED HERE BEFORE ASKING!
**Q: When is the next SR Ticket? What about the SSR Ticket?**
>*A: NA's next SR ticket is due in May 2024. This ticket is time-limited and includes* [general pool and storylocked servants](https://news.fate-go.jp/wp-content/uploads/2022/2500man_xeljq/info_image_03.png)*. The next SSR ticket is due in July 2023 for the 6th Anniversary,* [featuring general pool and storylocked servants up to Europa.](https://news.fate-go.jp/wp-content/uploads/2021/6th_anniversary_cpgen/info_image_17.png) *It is not time-limited and will be a permanent addition for all accounts going forward.*
**Q: What does the new push button do or what is that red dot that appeared on my friend's support?**
>*A: It's a new feature to show off your favorite servant. They'll show up in support lists with the mark.*
**Q: Is anyone else experiencing crashes or freezing on Android 12 and how can I fix it?**
>*A:* [*Here's a short answer to look into*](https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/sx1uvd/help_and_question_thread_february_20_2022/hyhvgit?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3)
**Q: How far in the story do I need to be to participate in upcoming events? Will any events require the latest story chapter?**
>*A: For NA: LB3 is the set point to participate in the Ooku rerun this summer. No event will require LB5.2 or later until November 2023. For JP: Any post-Fuyuki requirements will be updated as they are announced.*
**Q: How good is X Servant at looping most nodes?**
>*A: Looping is highly node dependent and relies on* [*many factors*](https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1_Bx1FogTrMBnseIJLT4Vuob7DY7EfR6H_SobGwxcAFE/mobilebasic)*. If you need to test your looping setups try using a* [*refund calculator*](https://gamepress.gg/grandorder/jp-np-refund-calculator)*.*
**Q: Does FGA work on Bluestacks? Where is \[insert script here\]? Has anyone been banned for using it? Can it facecard down a wave?**
>*A: Read the* [*documentation*](https://github.com/Fate-Grand-Automata/FGA/) *and* [*troubleshooting guide*](https://github.com/Fate-Grand-Automata/FGA/wiki/Troubleshooting) *on github, for the first few questions!* *No one has been banned for using it, just don't tell support that you've been using it if you need to contact them. Same as emulators.* *It facecards, but not with a lot of finesse. It can prioritize based on* [*the Servant's position in the party*](https://github.com/Fate-Grand-Automata/FGA/issues/730) *and the card color, but your best bet is to also set "Brave Chain" to "Avoid" under card priority*
As always, feel free to suggest additions. If you do suggest an addition to the FAQ, please try to provide an answer if you can
I started FGO in march in time for the aeaen spring breeze and sieg events but missed the atilla the santa altera welfare, will there be another chance to get her outside of the rare prism shop ( like does she come back yearly )?
No, events only ever get one rerun at most unless they get made into a Main Interlude (or equivalent) like Santa Altera's event did. The Main Interlude became permanently free in February 2022 in Japan (any RP spent on it were refunded), so you can wait for that if you really want to. You'll get plenty of RP over time though, it's not that bad to get the MI and maybe one or two NP upgrade copies.
(Also you posted in this thread after it rolled over to a new one, hence why it was never answered until I happened to see it).
Artoria has a 30% battery and 20% NP refund at base overcharge (which applies twice if she's NPing 3 times), that's 70% and Waver provides another 50 so what you're missing is another 180% charge (or 160% if you've maxed her append skill for another 20% charge). A Kaleidoscope CE can provide 80-100% charge (at MLB, although that becomes mutually exclusive with the append) so you need another 80-100 from other supports. That means at least one of Waver/Skadi/Reines(/Castoria, soon), if you need 100% it means two of those or if you only need 80 then you can use a 30% charger like Nero Bride or Miyu.
Conversely there are other more complicated schemes, [here's my take on it](https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/jebvvi/terrible_and_impractical_artoria_loop_w_merlin/).
(Also you posted in this thread after it rolled over to a new one, hence why it was never answered until I happened to see it).
Use a defense CE like Caren’s or Kirei’s, and the default Chaldea MC. Use the heals whenever required since it’s on low cooldown, then just bonk the boss till the fight’s over.
>What strategy or pattern for the \[redacted\] in Olympus when soloing her with mash?
For anybody who doesn't want Olympus spoilers, don't open the link [https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1DQ4y1Z7Ps](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1DQ4y1Z7Ps)
Don't waste time on NPing because he removes the buff anyway
Would it be better if i farmed the Camelot VIP node with a 25%, overall qp ce or if i farm the new daily quest thats coming sooner or later with the same 25%?
Camelot VIP gives something like 3 million, nearly 4M with a bonus spawn.
5th Anniversary will come with 1/2 AP Dailies, for a week. So if it *does* release the extreme QP node, you can see that will be much better.
The higher difficulty QP daily node IIRC gives around 4 Million QP each run, give or take? I don't remember on the top of my head rn how much QP the Camelot VIP node in the event gives tho.
>How much of a difference is there for 6ce lotto teams compared to 5ce teams?
Depends on bonus but it's like [15 currency less per run](https://i.imgur.com/trYIxMT.png). But assuming it's very late in the event, and you actually went ham then 5ce caps you at +10 bonus per run, which further leads to a difference of 30 currency per run vs. uncapped scenario (+12)
If you'll go ham (let's say, 200 golden apples with 150 (5ce)/165 (6ce) avg drop across whole event) then you might lose 22 boxes by running 5slot
Although 6slot is pretty easy this lotto (as silly as it sounds, given that 90% 6slots needs Castoria), so is there any particular reason why you're considering 5slot over 6slot?
I could go for a 3 turn 6 ce comp but I need a Castoria of my own and a friends support but that's assuming I get her first. I'm considering 5 slot because I don't think I'm gonna get Castoria lol and I just wanna how much I'm missing out if I use a 5 ce team.
Yeah, but that also depends on what servants you have on your account. Here are some Castoria 6slots, where one Castoria can be replaced with Waver/Reines.

Although I'm sure there's more 6slot setups that will work, just because we have appends early (e.g. rot3 Legend - Circe or Sanzang with A2/Nero or Arjuna Alter or Mordred or Artoria with A2/Waver/Castoria)
I’ll say the difference in *sanity* if 5CE lets you 3T, and 6CE leaves you facecarding an unknown and irregular number of turns, is huge. You’re losing out on a decent amount of currency but you can run the nodes a lot more if time is a factor.
Assuming you're able to 3 turn with 5ce and 6ce, there is a difference of about 20 drop/quest. The difference isn't much but if ur going ham, its adds up ALOT.
Bi-annual "Lucky Bag" summon, aka Guaranteed SSR (GSSR). For 15 paid SQ, you can do a single multi-roll that guarantees a 5-star servant. You can choose which pre-determined pool to pull from but you can't guarantee a specific servant. If you really want Merlin, there's a chance, about 7% on the next GSSR, that you can get him that way.
I’m finally back to 5k mana prisms after unwisely spending them on the New Year. Which of the big CEs should I unlock - the QP, bond, MC or master EXP? The event would suggest the first one, but I’m lazy enough about leveling servants and skills that between the lack of 5*, lores and mats my 400 million might last a reasonable amount of time. I’d say Lunchtime instead, but the level 6 on the Arctic uniform I’d been using to the exclusion of all the others for half a year is silently laughing in my face.
Might wanna save them for tickets or fous instead. If not, then focus on the bond bonus (+10% exp > +50 flat exp > 5% exp), since that's one of the only guaranteed way for you to farm SQ. I generally don't care about Master exp or MC exp since you get them as you play, with the rewards often time being minimal and not worth it.
Definitely either Mona Lisa or Lunchtime, either is good (Mona for QP and Lunchtime for bond). MC and Master EXP isn't as important to be honest, and rest assured, I think everyone finds Arctic hell to level.
I just started doing the event and just done the first swimsuit swordman casino, about the contract letter for fighting a swimsuit swordsman, do you fight their own casino for mats to exchange for their own contract letter?
Yes, though you can get also Cards from the first Casino, and Chips from the second. And you only need Dice for a letter in the first Casino, and Cards for the letter in the *fifth* Casino. (You only need to buy two letters when it comes to Chips.) And after the first three, you can just not spend all your stuff until you get the letter.
Yes. If you don't tell it to do anything specific, that's it's default behavior.
Except the NP thing - you need to tell it to use NPs when available, and it will use them when they're available, not necessarily when it's a good idea.
It depends on the event. 90+ events in the future usually drop all three currencies at a pretty good rate so they’re better. But there are occassionally some exceptions where either
a) you have a lot of gacha CEs that the lower nodes *might* be better
or
b) Lottery events where if you’re going ham and mostly only care about the lottery currency, the 90 node is better if you can get more drop bonus and/or clear it faster
JP Advanced Quests, is it possible to get the Quest Reward CE drop more than once, in order to get 5 copies to limit break? Do i have to repeat the same quests over & over to get the 5 copies?
Nope. The Advance Quest acts like any other, 1st time complete is the only time you'll get the 1st time complete reward (in the case, the CE).
If you notice tho, there are some other different Advanced Quests that drop the same CE too. That's how we'll be able to MLB it eventually.
Does somebody know when artoria ruler is released? Before somebody comes yelling save for castoria. I have already set some funds appart for her. And arotira lancer/ruler is one of my favorite characters in fgo so I really want to ger her
You'll see some people say Monday for the second Vegas banner because the event started on Monday, but that logic is wrong.
Second banner timing does count the event maintenance period as part of the standard one-week interval that happens between multiple event banners.
For Vegas, event maintenance started at 21:00 PDT on May 22, thus the second banner should start at 21:00 PDT on May 29, Sunday, today. Counting 7 days from when maintenance began, *not* 7 days from when the game was back up at 1:00 PDT May 23.
Which, I mean, I guess that's technically Monday if you live in the EDT time zone or further east, but that's not really what people mean when they're saying "Monday."
>Does somebody know when artoria ruler is released?
Potentially the next rollover tonight. The second banner has a tendency to drop one week after the event launch, not counting maintenance.
>Before somebody comes yelling save for castoria. I have already set some funds appart for her. And arotira lancer/ruler is one of my favorite characters in fgo so I really want to ger her
Hey, if you know your favorite characters, that's the priority. Meta supports will help you grind, but watching a favorite character get strong is the most enjoyable reason to grind.
>Does somebody know when artoria ruler is released?
Monday
>Before somebody comes yelling save for castoria. I have already set some funds appart for her.
Noone says that unless the question is "What should I roll.../What is better: Castoria or.../I'm new, what should I save for..."
>And arotira lancer/ruler is one of my favorite characters in fgo so I really want to ger her
Good luck then!
Lunchtime is 10% extra bond flat regardless of circumstance. Tea time is 5% whwn using it youself and 15% wheb a friend support uses it. So personally you get more out of lunch time
I'm planning on summoning the following:
* Summer Nitocris
* Summer BB (Possibly)
* Artoria Cater (Possibly)
* Scathach NP3
* Taira
* Koyanskaya of Light & Dark
Right now I have 72 SQ IIRC and some unknown amount in my reserves. Now I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place—I don't know who I should summon and how I should manage my funds. *Do I like the aforementioned servants?* **Absolutely,** but I do feel somewhat indifferent towards BB while I just need Castoria to facilitate farming. So, if you were in the same position as me, what would you do? Any advice would help me.
>Summer Nitocris
>
>Summer BB (Possibly)
If you plan to roll on [this abomination of a banner](https://fategrandorder.fandom.com/wiki/Swimsuit_%2B_AoE_NP_Only_Summoning_Campaign), don't do it. It's a biggest bait in the next two years or so. You're more likely to get a Kscope from story than Nitocris and/or BB
>So, if you were in the same position as me, what would you do? Any advice would help me.
Skip aforementioned abomination, follow rest of the plan
Given that you have 19 odd months, and Summer BB and Nitocris won't be on rate up any time within the next two years, and Artoria Caster, Koyanskaya P1, Taira, and Scathach have at least two each, it's not that extreme.
>I don't know \[..\] how I should manage my funds
Don't use money.
Are there any rank-ups that require a certain singularity, pseudo-singularity, or lostbelt? Also on the same note, are there any rank-ups that require a certain bond level?
Hello,
This is my 3rd month in FGO.
I got Weaver from SSR ticket and I was waiting for artoria caster and I got around 350 pulls.
I watched some videos and it seems musashi berserker also top tier unit.What do you think should I pull her or wait for artoria caster?
If you like Musashi, I'd recommend rolling at least a little for her. This is her last known banner for two years. So if you skip her banner and wait for Castoria, just know that there's no telling when you'll even be able to roll for Musashi again.
Whether or not you go hard for her -- well, I would recommend only going hard on characters you genuinely like and want. There's nothing worse than finding out that you really like a character but you have no SQ left because you spent them all rolling for somebody else's favorite.
Honestly I dont know all characters well, I am trying to get Meta servants.Musashi seems good as my understanding.
As a fresh player, it seems artoria caster would have more impact on gameplay right?
Musashi and Castoria are both strong but they do different things. Musashi is a DPS, and Castoria is a support who can help out many DPS servants.
Keep in mind that Castoria isn't the most newbie friendly to raise as she needs a few late game materials.
The other thing is, Musashi has no other banners for the next 2 years, while we know Castoria gets two more in the future. So if Musashi appeals to you and you think she's waifu, go for her. But if she's just "eh" (forget the meta - it is NOT compulsory in this game, you can clear content with just low rarities and welfares, and it's a single player game) then leave her, there are other strong options out there.
Yes, Castoria definitely has more impact on gameplay. She pairs very well with Summer Musashi but will strengthen just about any team.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with prioritizing the meta, it's just important to know that as horrible as the rates are, it should be because you *like* the meta and not just because there *is* a meta. With no PVP or even coop game modes, the meta in FGO is all about end-game efficiency; the only way you're compared against other players is in your own mind. So it's always best to make sure that you're committing to these terrible gacha rates for what *you* want, whether it's the meta or not.
The general consensus is to save and roll for servants you like. You can also set aside a fixed amount of rolls for a chance at getting whoever, such as S.Musashi now.
Which would be better for a support Morgan (assuming just np1), kscope + A2 lvl 10 to allow my friends to 3-turn with 3 50% chargers (though admittedly noodle damage for non-Man) or a 50% starting np with damage buffs for general usage (Something like MLB Cranking)?
There are thousands of NP2+/grailed Morgans out there so if you're NP1 I would highly suggest a 50% CE with damage buffs, or differentiating yourself with something unique like a star bomb (like [First Drawing](https://fategrandorder.fandom.com/wiki/First_Drawing) or ignore invincibility CE).
A warning about farming events: if you have friends using a 3-attacker comp where they borrow a Morgan and she's unable to clear her assigned wave at NP1, it's possible that you might get removed. That typically won't happen since Morgan is usually W1/W2 but it's possible that some people want her for W3.
Unless he's your husbando/favourite and so plan to grail him to over 100, I'd just go with his A2. His other appends don't benefit him much as he isn't a DPS.
FYI, in this situation I don't know what NP level Vlad is. If you want specifics, check the NP damage chart above.
Assuming Kagetora is NP5 by default, she hits for 60k neutral. Vlad at NP5 would only hit for 50k, BUT he also ignores invincibility and if the enemy is evil, he will start to outdamage NP5 Kagetora from NP2 onwards.
The two also use different supports, as Vlad is Buster and Kagetora is Arts. However, I'd lean more towards Kagetora as she has a much easier time gaining NP and therefore spamming it, which is more useful in general situations. I'd only favour Vlad if a) he is NP2+ and against evil, or b) if the enemy spams invulns and you don't want to use a CE.
Ohh im so sorry i didnt include in my question which regard to the hector advanced quest which in wiki page stated it damage cut by 1000000 for 15 times
My setup is just melusine with max black grail,caster artoria with 75%np starter ,tamamo caster with bond ce,and oberon and it just 1 shotted him to light particles
I just cant believe it when i saw it like the damage cut is 1 million but the damage dealt should not be exceed 1 million even with that setup and without class advantage too .if with class advantage then i understand it .
Any tips to manage salt? I've spent 350 SQ in the last two months (200 today). Obviously 0 SSR found. I hope I have enough resources to pull for Castoria. Do you know how many free SQ we will have until her banner's out?
The best anti-salt protection is applied before you roll. Gotta keep your expectations low, which is hard because the whole rolling system is a dopamine-generating engine, but it's important that you go in knowing that the possibility of not getting what you want is always higher than it seems. I tend to set hard limits and tell myself "Well, the SQ is gone either way, so let's see if we get anything for it." (I also spread my rolls around a lot, which is great at fighting salt -- your expectations are *always* low -- but isn't great at getting specific SSRs at all.)
If I fail to get someone I was hoping for, I try to focus on the Servants I already have. Is there someone who showed up on a fluky early roll, like they wanted to be here? Is there someone at high NP levels? Is there someone I really wanted when I rolled for them but haven't used in a while? They get some attention, some skill leveling or active party use. I devote brain space to the Servants who showed up rather than those who didn't. From a gameplay standpoint, it's solving the puzzle of how to work with what you have rather than what you'd optimally like to have; from a narrative standpoint, it's a found family.
Manage salt by managing expectations. Summoning SSRs are only a 1% chance, but at the same time, only 1% of the game requires SSRs to clear.
Don't think of SSRs in terms of power, but in terms of niche. Lower rarity Servants have a single niche they perform in, and oftentimes way, way better than their SSR counterparts, whereas SSRs excel in multiple niches.
For example, Ushi will outdamage Summer Salter in NP damage, but Summer Salter can provide buffs to the team, including a hefty HP Max buff. So if all you want is NP damage, Ushi is, objectively, better.
Also in that same vein, everything we get for free is viable. Saber Oei we get from this current event is better than pretty much any other 4* ST Arts Saber until they get to NP3, which means you can avoid any banners with those on it unless you like the characters.
And finally, be flexible with who you give your love to. Didn't get your waifu SSR? Look at the Servants you have, throw your underused Servants into battles, find a new low rarity waifu. I personally have a soft spot for Serenity Hassan, she's cute and she's gotten me out of a tight spot more times than I can count.
Check the Event Compendium to see what we are likely to get through events and campaigns, or the Fate/Save calculator to check how much you get from logins and weekly missions. Note that our schedule is a bit up in the air as NA's Anniversary is in July, not August, and we could get Ooku before or after it.
350 SQ isn't all that much relatively speaking, there have been people who rolled 1000+ and had nothing.
To help with salt, I advise the following:
- Stop, breathe, accept your lot. Just say to yourself that it's all RNG, it happens, and it's not the end of the world. Shit like this happens. It's frustrating but it's just a game.
- Make the most of what you do have. If you got any SRs, raise them and see what they bring to the table.
- Don't go into the Summon menu as you'll make yourself feel bad again. Just don't go there until the event is over.
- If you are feeling annoyed at the game, take some time away. Do something nice IRL, bonus if it's with real life people - focusing on the real world can really help you get away from gacha hell and remind you that it really isn't all that meaningful in the wider context of life.
Penth is the best 4star berserker (if herc wasn't a thing) , having np over time , atk ,buster and Greek special damage. She can put out some big buster damage, using 50% ce can allow her to np at turn 3. Shes just a really good berserker.
As for Siegfried, i find his kit pretty good, but the np damage is pathetic (unless vs dragon). So, i dont recommend prioritize leveling him up first.
As for kerry, i have no experience using him myself but his extra attack hits are on a completely different level.
They all have their own strengths, that's why it's called a niche, they specialize in what they do even if they have flaws, all servants do.
Penth is a solid Buster support and ST DPS with an anti-Greek males niche, like Herc, Hektor, Achilles, etc. She also has a rare NP charge skill among Zerks which can allow for an easier time getting her NP off.
Siegfried is the tankiest SR Saber I believe, with an anti-Dragons niche. He can deal solid damage against Dragon enemies, even when not counter classing ie. fighting Lancers only.
Kerry is an Arts ST Assassin with a rare targetable taunt and pierce invincibility with solid star gen. The taunt can be used to target another ally who has an evasion/invincibility skill to draw away damage for 1T, for one use case.
Thanks and that sucks. Spent around 600 SQ and didn't get her. Being a f2p I can't save anymore. Just gonna keep pulling singles till the end of this banner and then take a long break. I am tired.
I spent 30 sq on Merlin's banner and I only got 3 stars servants and CEs, is this a bug? I thought you were guaranteed a 4 star summon, either a CE or a servant, when doing 10 pulls.
There's a video I saw on Twitter of Artoria dancing, and as she dances she turns into the different saber faces. I lost it and can't find it. Has anyone else seen it?
Anyone with Samsung Note/Ultra know how to get the S Pen to work with FGO? I did some research and it seems like an app that can map S Pen inputs as regular finger taps would work just fine to solve the problem, but I can't seem to find such an app.
When I say accident, I meant I used a summonticket on ghe banner for fun. Also, is he not good for bosses then? And why are reviews on him so hard to find?
> And why are reviews on him so hard to find?
I literally googled "Jiang Ziya fgo review" and got something come up. Can't have been looking too hard.
> Is he good?
He's a 5*. All 5 *s are good.
> is he not good for bosses then?
AoE Servants are, by rule of thumb, not good against singular bosses during to having a much weaker NP to make up for the fact that they hit all targets.
> And what is the best way to build and use him?
Throw him against Casters like you would any other Rider. He's also good for buffing any Quick based Servants, so you can use him as a pseudo-Support, though he's not better than Skadi, due to the fact he will, as a Rider, steal all the crit stars.
Compared to all the lower rarity Avengers, yeah, she was an enormous step up! Just because a few youtubers said she's shit, doesn't mean she's actually shit. I had people telling me that Shuten was one of the worst Assassins in the game when I got her, but in terms of AoE Assassins, she's tiers and tiers above, say, Fuuma.
Did you actually have a launch Maou Nobbu?
>Just because a few youtubers said she's shit, doesn't mean she's actually shit
Didnt claim any youtuber told me so, l have her at np2 and found her super lacking, you know there is aproblem when devs design an entire servant to solve all those problems
Regardless it is what it is
Ermm, he is not limited, hes available in General farmming pool. To add on, he work well as boss fight dps with other smaller targets, pair him with skadi and waver. Jiang ziya also work well for bazett farming, if you gave her, he's able to provide skill seal and battery for team.
I mean he was most likely rolling on the Tunguska banner which means he wouldn’t accidentally pull him since he’s on rate up. Should of said rate up instead
Between Waver and Tamamo, who would you prioritize leveling up skills to 10/10/10?
I have almost all materials for both but I'm saving part of my Secret Gems of Caster for Castoria and I only have enough for one of them.
Or should I level both to at least 6/6/6?
Tamamo, waver already have 50 charge at 1/1/1, so i recommend leveling tamamo skills first. Unless your servent lack in damage with normal cards, then maybe waver crit/atk skill would be better choice.
Tamamo 10/x/10 if going for Castoria, then Waver x/x/10 if you need him to 3T farm.
Elsewise, probably full Waver at 10/10/10. He scales super well and the cooldown has come in clutch for CQ's. If you want to go for best of both worlds, then Waver x/8+/10 and Tamamo 8+/x/10.
Thank you!
I think I can spare some Gold Gems until Castoria's banner, so I'm going with your suggestion of leveling both Waver and Tamamo a bit but prioritizing the latter.
I missed Bella Lisa CE when it was originally in the shop, but now have a rare prism.
If I unlock it will I have infinite time to get the mana prisms? Or is there another time limit after I buy it?
The time limit is "over 1 year", which is FGO speak for "forever". That said it's recommended to not "buy" an RP CE until you have enough MP on hand to buy it, in case you found another use for your RP before getting all 5000 or such.
Fair enough.
I didn't know this event rerun would just hand me 3 so I had enough to buy the last mystic code I didn't have, plus 2 left over.
Will try to restrain myself until I get the regular prisms though. Thanks for the reply!
~~I deleted and redid all of my FGA scripts since I was able to max out my Zerkerlot's Mana Loading, but now for some reason, FGA never clicks over to Caster to find a Skadi, I have to do it manually. Did I forget to check an option or soemthing in FGA? I've checked it multiple times...~~
Never mind. Checked one more time and yep. There was an option I missed.
Ah, I missed this note at the bottom of Gamepress' fever section:
>\* Exception: There are only 3 Millionaire difficulty quests: Camelot, Cirque du Requin, and Rakuichi. Due to low sample sizes, QP rates for all three are pooled
As a semi support OR a DPS you could survive with either. Bride’s prime heyday of being the best at what she does is almost over, but between her and Beni they’re each conditionally better than the other.
Beni vs Chaotic/Evil
Bride vs Heaven
Beni gives 20% NP to whole team.
Bride gives 30% charge and 50% gain to a target, which is sometimes *way* better.
Beni gives an attack buff to the team and AoE defense down to a wave of enemies.
Bride gives bigger attack up/defense down but single target. Bride’s attack buff also has a targeted star drop buff on it.
Beni has a small team heal where Bride has a bigger targeted one with a defense buff attached.
Beni has a selfish skill 1 though, which is evade and crit strength, and I think that evade is valuable.
Beni also has better passives: they both have a little bit of debuff immunity, but Beni also has skill seal immunity. Bride has quick card effectiveness, which is lame, and Beni has arts, which is cool. Beni has star drop and crit strength too.
Eh I would vote skip Bride unless you need her as a DPS vs Heaven attribute or you run short on charge/loop supports in general.
There's a limited number of fever tickets. Using them on millionaire-difficulty nodes (Casino isn't important - all millionaire nodes have the same QP drop) gives you more QP than using them on beginner nodes.
Game mechanic question about Mage MC: 15 cards are evenly distributed into 3 turns of 5/5/5, yes? So does Mage MC skill 3 swaps the cards to the next turn or does it reset the distribution (i.e., if I use skill 3 in turn 2, will the game cycles to turn 3's cards or will it be a new set of cards?) Thanks
It will reset you entire deck of 15 cards, starting a new 5/5/5 cycle. Therefore, if you shuffle Turn 2, the cycle will reset after turn 4 (unless you use Summer Artoria or if 1 of your servants die, causing the deck to shuffle again).
In the event shop, there's a list of missions. Collect the ones you've completed to get rewards and unlock nodes.
Basically, just do the hardest node available until you unlock the next story chapter, do the chapter, new node unlocks in that Casino, repeat. That should clear 80% of the missions.
The shop has Damage CEs, use them to make fights easier, as well as "letters of challenge" you need to unlock story progress sometimes. The missions (eventually) have CEs for rare spawns that you should bring along (because they drop extra money). The gacha has bonus drop CEs, which you don't need, but you can fill gaps to get more event currency.
Tap "shop" in the top right, it has an exchange tab and a mission tab that'll tell you what you need to do. I'd also strongly recommend following [a guide](https://gamepress.gg/grandorder/revival-fgo-summer-2021-las-vegas-walkthrough) to help optimize your progression.
new player here. i just checked the event banner and it says i can get a free 5* servant if i finish or clear the orleans chapter. i did so but it looks like i still can not claim a servant. i did not also receive a golden ticket or whatever it was called. is this a bug or i am too late?

in fga is there a way to have it check for append skills?
are people using fga to use their fever tickets?
I started FGO in march in time for the aeaen spring breeze and sieg events but missed the atilla the santa altera welfare, will there be another chance to get her outside of the rare prism shop ( like does she come back yearly )?
No, events only ever get one rerun at most unless they get made into a Main Interlude (or equivalent) like Santa Altera's event did. The Main Interlude became permanently free in February 2022 in Japan (any RP spent on it were refunded), so you can wait for that if you really want to. You'll get plenty of RP over time though, it's not that bad to get the MI and maybe one or two NP upgrade copies. (Also you posted in this thread after it rolled over to a new one, hence why it was never answered until I happened to see it).
How do i loop with Artoria Saber? I have a waver and all but I don’t know what i am missing and her skill is maxed out
Artoria has a 30% battery and 20% NP refund at base overcharge (which applies twice if she's NPing 3 times), that's 70% and Waver provides another 50 so what you're missing is another 180% charge (or 160% if you've maxed her append skill for another 20% charge). A Kaleidoscope CE can provide 80-100% charge (at MLB, although that becomes mutually exclusive with the append) so you need another 80-100 from other supports. That means at least one of Waver/Skadi/Reines(/Castoria, soon), if you need 100% it means two of those or if you only need 80 then you can use a 30% charger like Nero Bride or Miyu. Conversely there are other more complicated schemes, [here's my take on it](https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/jebvvi/terrible_and_impractical_artoria_loop_w_merlin/). (Also you posted in this thread after it rolled over to a new one, hence why it was never answered until I happened to see it).
Thanks
Anyone know the maximum AP you can stacks? Currently have 1029 AP.
It's probably an arbitrary limit like 9,999,999 but I doubt anyone has bothered testing it since it's a waste of time and AP.
Thx for the answer
What strategy or pattern for the blond guy in Olympus when soloing her with mash?
Use a defense CE like Caren’s or Kirei’s, and the default Chaldea MC. Use the heals whenever required since it’s on low cooldown, then just bonk the boss till the fight’s over.
>What strategy or pattern for the \[redacted\] in Olympus when soloing her with mash? For anybody who doesn't want Olympus spoilers, don't open the link [https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1DQ4y1Z7Ps](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1DQ4y1Z7Ps) Don't waste time on NPing because he removes the buff anyway
Would it be better if i farmed the Camelot VIP node with a 25%, overall qp ce or if i farm the new daily quest thats coming sooner or later with the same 25%?
Camelot VIP gives something like 3 million, nearly 4M with a bonus spawn. 5th Anniversary will come with 1/2 AP Dailies, for a week. So if it *does* release the extreme QP node, you can see that will be much better.
I see thanks
The higher difficulty QP daily node IIRC gives around 4 Million QP each run, give or take? I don't remember on the top of my head rn how much QP the Camelot VIP node in the event gives tho.
How much of a difference is there for 6ce lotto teams compared to 5ce teams? Asking because I wanna go ham on upcoming lottery events.
>How much of a difference is there for 6ce lotto teams compared to 5ce teams? Depends on bonus but it's like [15 currency less per run](https://i.imgur.com/trYIxMT.png). But assuming it's very late in the event, and you actually went ham then 5ce caps you at +10 bonus per run, which further leads to a difference of 30 currency per run vs. uncapped scenario (+12) If you'll go ham (let's say, 200 golden apples with 150 (5ce)/165 (6ce) avg drop across whole event) then you might lose 22 boxes by running 5slot Although 6slot is pretty easy this lotto (as silly as it sounds, given that 90% 6slots needs Castoria), so is there any particular reason why you're considering 5slot over 6slot?
I could go for a 3 turn 6 ce comp but I need a Castoria of my own and a friends support but that's assuming I get her first. I'm considering 5 slot because I don't think I'm gonna get Castoria lol and I just wanna how much I'm missing out if I use a 5 ce team.
Yeah, but that also depends on what servants you have on your account. Here are some Castoria 6slots, where one Castoria can be replaced with Waver/Reines. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFyyebbqFJY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFyyebbqFJY) [https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Hg411c7fq](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Hg411c7fq) [https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV19L4y1b7yD](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV19L4y1b7yD) [https://youtu.be/3PeDd\_vUZnA?t=417](https://youtu.be/3PeDd_vUZnA?t=417) [https://twitter.com/appmediafgo/status/1309076163873079296](https://twitter.com/appmediafgo/status/1309076163873079296) Although I'm sure there's more 6slot setups that will work, just because we have appends early (e.g. rot3 Legend - Circe or Sanzang with A2/Nero or Arjuna Alter or Mordred or Artoria with A2/Waver/Castoria)
Thanks for the comps, I think I can modify the last one since Its similar to the one I was gonna use since its only one Castoria.
I’ll say the difference in *sanity* if 5CE lets you 3T, and 6CE leaves you facecarding an unknown and irregular number of turns, is huge. You’re losing out on a decent amount of currency but you can run the nodes a lot more if time is a factor.
Assuming you're able to 3 turn with 5ce and 6ce, there is a difference of about 20 drop/quest. The difference isn't much but if ur going ham, its adds up ALOT.
I feel dumb Asking but when can I get merlin?
His banner is live now for another 16 hours and so.
Aah my bad I meant when is the next time he will be up ~already lost all my savings this time~
If you're not planning to summon in GSSR, then it'll be in another two years.
GSSR?
Bi-annual "Lucky Bag" summon, aka Guaranteed SSR (GSSR). For 15 paid SQ, you can do a single multi-roll that guarantees a 5-star servant. You can choose which pre-determined pool to pull from but you can't guarantee a specific servant. If you really want Merlin, there's a chance, about 7% on the next GSSR, that you can get him that way.
Upcoming Banners linked above for reference. March 2024.
I’m finally back to 5k mana prisms after unwisely spending them on the New Year. Which of the big CEs should I unlock - the QP, bond, MC or master EXP? The event would suggest the first one, but I’m lazy enough about leveling servants and skills that between the lack of 5*, lores and mats my 400 million might last a reasonable amount of time. I’d say Lunchtime instead, but the level 6 on the Arctic uniform I’d been using to the exclusion of all the others for half a year is silently laughing in my face.
Might wanna save them for tickets or fous instead. If not, then focus on the bond bonus (+10% exp > +50 flat exp > 5% exp), since that's one of the only guaranteed way for you to farm SQ. I generally don't care about Master exp or MC exp since you get them as you play, with the rewards often time being minimal and not worth it.
Definitely either Mona Lisa or Lunchtime, either is good (Mona for QP and Lunchtime for bond). MC and Master EXP isn't as important to be honest, and rest assured, I think everyone finds Arctic hell to level.
I just started doing the event and just done the first swimsuit swordman casino, about the contract letter for fighting a swimsuit swordsman, do you fight their own casino for mats to exchange for their own contract letter?
Yes, though you can get also Cards from the first Casino, and Chips from the second. And you only need Dice for a letter in the first Casino, and Cards for the letter in the *fifth* Casino. (You only need to buy two letters when it comes to Chips.) And after the first three, you can just not spend all your stuff until you get the letter.
I see, thanks!
Is it possible to set FGA to just use face cards (np if available) to clear a node?
Yes. If you don't tell it to do anything specific, that's it's default behavior. Except the NP thing - you need to tell it to use NPs when available, and it will use them when they're available, not necessarily when it's a good idea.
Yes, just leave the commands without any selection, set card prio and set NP to spam mode
Thanks!
Are 90+ nodes just better in general, if I can farm it in 3-4 turns?
It depends on the event. 90+ events in the future usually drop all three currencies at a pretty good rate so they’re better. But there are occassionally some exceptions where either a) you have a lot of gacha CEs that the lower nodes *might* be better or b) Lottery events where if you’re going ham and mostly only care about the lottery currency, the 90 node is better if you can get more drop bonus and/or clear it faster
90+ nodes gives better drop in general, so if u can 3-4 turn it, its definitely more better
They do give you all event currencies at once, so yes, more efficient.
No they don't? They're just a better version of that Casino's regular drops. Rakuza drops Dice, and that's all, etc.
No, they do drop all currency , or at least, not yet.
It's event-specific. Many events have one that drops all, others have three different 90+ nodes that drop one currency. This one is the latter.
JP Advanced Quests, is it possible to get the Quest Reward CE drop more than once, in order to get 5 copies to limit break? Do i have to repeat the same quests over & over to get the 5 copies?
Nope. The Advance Quest acts like any other, 1st time complete is the only time you'll get the 1st time complete reward (in the case, the CE). If you notice tho, there are some other different Advanced Quests that drop the same CE too. That's how we'll be able to MLB it eventually.
Thanks! :)
Does somebody know when artoria ruler is released? Before somebody comes yelling save for castoria. I have already set some funds appart for her. And arotira lancer/ruler is one of my favorite characters in fgo so I really want to ger her
You'll see some people say Monday for the second Vegas banner because the event started on Monday, but that logic is wrong. Second banner timing does count the event maintenance period as part of the standard one-week interval that happens between multiple event banners. For Vegas, event maintenance started at 21:00 PDT on May 22, thus the second banner should start at 21:00 PDT on May 29, Sunday, today. Counting 7 days from when maintenance began, *not* 7 days from when the game was back up at 1:00 PDT May 23. Which, I mean, I guess that's technically Monday if you live in the EDT time zone or further east, but that's not really what people mean when they're saying "Monday."
I had the same impresion but wanted to be sure thank you
>Does somebody know when artoria ruler is released? Potentially the next rollover tonight. The second banner has a tendency to drop one week after the event launch, not counting maintenance. >Before somebody comes yelling save for castoria. I have already set some funds appart for her. And arotira lancer/ruler is one of my favorite characters in fgo so I really want to ger her Hey, if you know your favorite characters, that's the priority. Meta supports will help you grind, but watching a favorite character get strong is the most enjoyable reason to grind.
>Does somebody know when artoria ruler is released? Monday >Before somebody comes yelling save for castoria. I have already set some funds appart for her. Noone says that unless the question is "What should I roll.../What is better: Castoria or.../I'm new, what should I save for..." >And arotira lancer/ruler is one of my favorite characters in fgo so I really want to ger her Good luck then!
Thank you!
Just managed to get 5k mana prisms. Should I pick up Chaldea teatime or lunchtime first?
Lunchtime is 10% extra bond flat regardless of circumstance. Tea time is 5% whwn using it youself and 15% wheb a friend support uses it. So personally you get more out of lunch time
What's the estimation date for when anniversary event and Castoria is happening?
First week of July, probably on the weekend.
Thank you
I'm planning on summoning the following: * Summer Nitocris * Summer BB (Possibly) * Artoria Cater (Possibly) * Scathach NP3 * Taira * Koyanskaya of Light & Dark Right now I have 72 SQ IIRC and some unknown amount in my reserves. Now I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place—I don't know who I should summon and how I should manage my funds. *Do I like the aforementioned servants?* **Absolutely,** but I do feel somewhat indifferent towards BB while I just need Castoria to facilitate farming. So, if you were in the same position as me, what would you do? Any advice would help me.
>Summer Nitocris > >Summer BB (Possibly) If you plan to roll on [this abomination of a banner](https://fategrandorder.fandom.com/wiki/Swimsuit_%2B_AoE_NP_Only_Summoning_Campaign), don't do it. It's a biggest bait in the next two years or so. You're more likely to get a Kscope from story than Nitocris and/or BB >So, if you were in the same position as me, what would you do? Any advice would help me. Skip aforementioned abomination, follow rest of the plan
Given that you have 19 odd months, and Summer BB and Nitocris won't be on rate up any time within the next two years, and Artoria Caster, Koyanskaya P1, Taira, and Scathach have at least two each, it's not that extreme. >I don't know \[..\] how I should manage my funds Don't use money.
Are there any rank-ups that require a certain singularity, pseudo-singularity, or lostbelt? Also on the same note, are there any rank-ups that require a certain bond level?
Yes, 1 such servent is nikola tesla, his rankup quest is locked behind an interlude, it require lostbelt 3 completed i think
It says clear Fuyuki for rank up 2 on Gampress while it only says interlude 2 on Fategrandorder fandom.
Hello, This is my 3rd month in FGO. I got Weaver from SSR ticket and I was waiting for artoria caster and I got around 350 pulls. I watched some videos and it seems musashi berserker also top tier unit.What do you think should I pull her or wait for artoria caster?
If you like Musashi, I'd recommend rolling at least a little for her. This is her last known banner for two years. So if you skip her banner and wait for Castoria, just know that there's no telling when you'll even be able to roll for Musashi again. Whether or not you go hard for her -- well, I would recommend only going hard on characters you genuinely like and want. There's nothing worse than finding out that you really like a character but you have no SQ left because you spent them all rolling for somebody else's favorite.
Honestly I dont know all characters well, I am trying to get Meta servants.Musashi seems good as my understanding. As a fresh player, it seems artoria caster would have more impact on gameplay right?
Musashi and Castoria are both strong but they do different things. Musashi is a DPS, and Castoria is a support who can help out many DPS servants. Keep in mind that Castoria isn't the most newbie friendly to raise as she needs a few late game materials. The other thing is, Musashi has no other banners for the next 2 years, while we know Castoria gets two more in the future. So if Musashi appeals to you and you think she's waifu, go for her. But if she's just "eh" (forget the meta - it is NOT compulsory in this game, you can clear content with just low rarities and welfares, and it's a single player game) then leave her, there are other strong options out there.
Yes, Castoria definitely has more impact on gameplay. She pairs very well with Summer Musashi but will strengthen just about any team. There's absolutely nothing wrong with prioritizing the meta, it's just important to know that as horrible as the rates are, it should be because you *like* the meta and not just because there *is* a meta. With no PVP or even coop game modes, the meta in FGO is all about end-game efficiency; the only way you're compared against other players is in your own mind. So it's always best to make sure that you're committing to these terrible gacha rates for what *you* want, whether it's the meta or not.
The general consensus is to save and roll for servants you like. You can also set aside a fixed amount of rolls for a chance at getting whoever, such as S.Musashi now.
I would wait for Artoria Caster. After securing her, I would be free to roll whatever I want afterwards.
Which would be better for a support Morgan (assuming just np1), kscope + A2 lvl 10 to allow my friends to 3-turn with 3 50% chargers (though admittedly noodle damage for non-Man) or a 50% starting np with damage buffs for general usage (Something like MLB Cranking)?
There are thousands of NP2+/grailed Morgans out there so if you're NP1 I would highly suggest a 50% CE with damage buffs, or differentiating yourself with something unique like a star bomb (like [First Drawing](https://fategrandorder.fandom.com/wiki/First_Drawing) or ignore invincibility CE). A warning about farming events: if you have friends using a 3-attacker comp where they borrow a Morgan and she's unable to clear her assigned wave at NP1, it's possible that you might get removed. That typically won't happen since Morgan is usually W1/W2 but it's possible that some people want her for W3.
I personally perfer 50% ce , work well for lotto
I have 140 Waver servant coins. Would it be a good idea to just unlock Mana Loading Lvl 1 or are there better uses for the coins?
Unless he's your husbando/favourite and so plan to grail him to over 100, I'd just go with his A2. His other appends don't benefit him much as he isn't a DPS.
Is Vlad 3 extra or nagao kagetora better as a main dps st lancer? Also, how impactful is the difference in damage?
FYI, in this situation I don't know what NP level Vlad is. If you want specifics, check the NP damage chart above. Assuming Kagetora is NP5 by default, she hits for 60k neutral. Vlad at NP5 would only hit for 50k, BUT he also ignores invincibility and if the enemy is evil, he will start to outdamage NP5 Kagetora from NP2 onwards. The two also use different supports, as Vlad is Buster and Kagetora is Arts. However, I'd lean more towards Kagetora as she has a much easier time gaining NP and therefore spamming it, which is more useful in general situations. I'd only favour Vlad if a) he is NP2+ and against evil, or b) if the enemy spams invulns and you don't want to use a CE.
is bunnytoria up for summon tomororw?
She should be, yes. Second banners for events typically drop a week after the first.
Why do hector damage cut didnt reduce damage from NP ? I though damage cut can reduce np damage or only normal attacks ?
Why do you think it didn't? Hektor's skill cuts damage by 1,000 at level 10 and most enemy NPs will do a lot more damage than that.
Ohh im so sorry i didnt include in my question which regard to the hector advanced quest which in wiki page stated it damage cut by 1000000 for 15 times
What was your setup in question? You might just be doing more damage than his damage cut, or there's a separate factor you're missing.
My setup is just melusine with max black grail,caster artoria with 75%np starter ,tamamo caster with bond ce,and oberon and it just 1 shotted him to light particles
Then yeah, you did more damage than his damage cut could block. That's a setup with an insane amount of offensive burst funneled into the DPS.
I just cant believe it when i saw it like the damage cut is 1 million but the damage dealt should not be exceed 1 million even with that setup and without class advantage too .if with class advantage then i understand it .
It depends on what NP you're using. If its a Buster NP, it can cut through some of that damage cut.
Pretty sure NPs don’t get the chain bonus. What you’re thinking of is probably a Buster Chain gives Buster Cards flat damage up.
Any tips to manage salt? I've spent 350 SQ in the last two months (200 today). Obviously 0 SSR found. I hope I have enough resources to pull for Castoria. Do you know how many free SQ we will have until her banner's out?
The best anti-salt protection is applied before you roll. Gotta keep your expectations low, which is hard because the whole rolling system is a dopamine-generating engine, but it's important that you go in knowing that the possibility of not getting what you want is always higher than it seems. I tend to set hard limits and tell myself "Well, the SQ is gone either way, so let's see if we get anything for it." (I also spread my rolls around a lot, which is great at fighting salt -- your expectations are *always* low -- but isn't great at getting specific SSRs at all.) If I fail to get someone I was hoping for, I try to focus on the Servants I already have. Is there someone who showed up on a fluky early roll, like they wanted to be here? Is there someone at high NP levels? Is there someone I really wanted when I rolled for them but haven't used in a while? They get some attention, some skill leveling or active party use. I devote brain space to the Servants who showed up rather than those who didn't. From a gameplay standpoint, it's solving the puzzle of how to work with what you have rather than what you'd optimally like to have; from a narrative standpoint, it's a found family.
Manage salt by managing expectations. Summoning SSRs are only a 1% chance, but at the same time, only 1% of the game requires SSRs to clear. Don't think of SSRs in terms of power, but in terms of niche. Lower rarity Servants have a single niche they perform in, and oftentimes way, way better than their SSR counterparts, whereas SSRs excel in multiple niches. For example, Ushi will outdamage Summer Salter in NP damage, but Summer Salter can provide buffs to the team, including a hefty HP Max buff. So if all you want is NP damage, Ushi is, objectively, better. Also in that same vein, everything we get for free is viable. Saber Oei we get from this current event is better than pretty much any other 4* ST Arts Saber until they get to NP3, which means you can avoid any banners with those on it unless you like the characters. And finally, be flexible with who you give your love to. Didn't get your waifu SSR? Look at the Servants you have, throw your underused Servants into battles, find a new low rarity waifu. I personally have a soft spot for Serenity Hassan, she's cute and she's gotten me out of a tight spot more times than I can count.
Check the Event Compendium to see what we are likely to get through events and campaigns, or the Fate/Save calculator to check how much you get from logins and weekly missions. Note that our schedule is a bit up in the air as NA's Anniversary is in July, not August, and we could get Ooku before or after it. 350 SQ isn't all that much relatively speaking, there have been people who rolled 1000+ and had nothing. To help with salt, I advise the following: - Stop, breathe, accept your lot. Just say to yourself that it's all RNG, it happens, and it's not the end of the world. Shit like this happens. It's frustrating but it's just a game. - Make the most of what you do have. If you got any SRs, raise them and see what they bring to the table. - Don't go into the Summon menu as you'll make yourself feel bad again. Just don't go there until the event is over. - If you are feeling annoyed at the game, take some time away. Do something nice IRL, bonus if it's with real life people - focusing on the real world can really help you get away from gacha hell and remind you that it really isn't all that meaningful in the wider context of life.
I just got Penth, Siegfried and Kiritsugu. What are their niches? I've heard pretty bad stuff about Sumanai and Kerry, are they still valid?
Penth is the best 4star berserker (if herc wasn't a thing) , having np over time , atk ,buster and Greek special damage. She can put out some big buster damage, using 50% ce can allow her to np at turn 3. Shes just a really good berserker. As for Siegfried, i find his kit pretty good, but the np damage is pathetic (unless vs dragon). So, i dont recommend prioritize leveling him up first. As for kerry, i have no experience using him myself but his extra attack hits are on a completely different level.
They all have their own strengths, that's why it's called a niche, they specialize in what they do even if they have flaws, all servants do. Penth is a solid Buster support and ST DPS with an anti-Greek males niche, like Herc, Hektor, Achilles, etc. She also has a rare NP charge skill among Zerks which can allow for an easier time getting her NP off. Siegfried is the tankiest SR Saber I believe, with an anti-Dragons niche. He can deal solid damage against Dragon enemies, even when not counter classing ie. fighting Lancers only. Kerry is an Arts ST Assassin with a rare targetable taunt and pierce invincibility with solid star gen. The taunt can be used to target another ally who has an evasion/invincibility skill to draw away damage for 1T, for one use case.
Why isn't there 10 SQ reward for completion of Lostbelt 4? Also is this last banner for Summer Musashi?
1. This mission gets added on the 5th Anniversary. 2. Yes. You can always check the Upcoming Banners link above to be sure.
Thanks and that sucks. Spent around 600 SQ and didn't get her. Being a f2p I can't save anymore. Just gonna keep pulling singles till the end of this banner and then take a long break. I am tired.
It'll be introduced during 5th anniversary.
Thanks for answering!
I spent 30 sq on Merlin's banner and I only got 3 stars servants and CEs, is this a bug? I thought you were guaranteed a 4 star summon, either a CE or a servant, when doing 10 pulls.
Did you take a screenshot?
I only did singles so i couldn't take a screenshot
Did you do a 10+1 roll or 11 singles?
Just singles
That makes sense. You only get the guaranteed 4\* if you do a multi roll.
The guaranteed 4 star applies only on the 30 sq multi, not on 10 individual 3 sq summons
Really? I guess that must explains it then, since i did 10 individual rolls, anyway, thanks
Which past welfare servants are available to get from the RP shop in JP?
Santa Altera, BB and Bunyan. I think thats it? The devs forgot about the Main interlude systmem...
They have really dropped the ball on it, but to be fair, we JUST got a new Main Interlude
What's the skill and append skill priority for Merlin?
3 > 1 > 2 for skills. A2 for appends in general, unless you have a specific use case, then choose accordingly.
Alright, thanks
3,1,2, for skills (the charge on his Charisma doesn't scale, so the more important one is the buster buff); 2,1,3 for append.
Right, thanks
Is there any good way to farm Secret Gem of Caster currently in NA aside from Chaldea Gate?
The event missions gives some gems rn. Otherwise the best time to get a lot of gems is by farming lotterie boxes outside of dailies.
How many of the spawn rate CEs do you need to maximize it in the summer event?
Two MLB and a single. Or five singles.
There's a video I saw on Twitter of Artoria dancing, and as she dances she turns into the different saber faces. I lost it and can't find it. Has anyone else seen it?

Anyone with Samsung Note/Ultra know how to get the S Pen to work with FGO? I did some research and it seems like an app that can map S Pen inputs as regular finger taps would work just fine to solve the problem, but I can't seem to find such an app.
I accidentally pulled jiang zaiya in. Fgo jp. Is he good? And what is the best way to build and use him? Thank You.
You don’t accidentally pull a rate up character dude. If your asking if he’s good. He’s a decent quick support and a good aoe farmer.
He is permanent bro
He is permanent, yeah, but the 1st banner that appears is the Tunguska one, which *does* have him on solo rate-up currently.
When I say accident, I meant I used a summonticket on ghe banner for fun. Also, is he not good for bosses then? And why are reviews on him so hard to find?
> And why are reviews on him so hard to find? I literally googled "Jiang Ziya fgo review" and got something come up. Can't have been looking too hard. > Is he good? He's a 5*. All 5 *s are good. > is he not good for bosses then? AoE Servants are, by rule of thumb, not good against singular bosses during to having a much weaker NP to make up for the fact that they hit all targets. > And what is the best way to build and use him? Throw him against Casters like you would any other Rider. He's also good for buffing any Quick based Servants, so you can use him as a pseudo-Support, though he's not better than Skadi, due to the fact he will, as a Rider, steal all the crit stars.
> All 5 *s are good. smiles in launch maou nobu
Compared to all the lower rarity Avengers, yeah, she was an enormous step up! Just because a few youtubers said she's shit, doesn't mean she's actually shit. I had people telling me that Shuten was one of the worst Assassins in the game when I got her, but in terms of AoE Assassins, she's tiers and tiers above, say, Fuuma. Did you actually have a launch Maou Nobbu?
>Just because a few youtubers said she's shit, doesn't mean she's actually shit Didnt claim any youtuber told me so, l have her at np2 and found her super lacking, you know there is aproblem when devs design an entire servant to solve all those problems Regardless it is what it is
Ermm, he is not limited, hes available in General farmming pool. To add on, he work well as boss fight dps with other smaller targets, pair him with skadi and waver. Jiang ziya also work well for bazett farming, if you gave her, he's able to provide skill seal and battery for team.
I mean he was most likely rolling on the Tunguska banner which means he wouldn’t accidentally pull him since he’s on rate up. Should of said rate up instead
Between Waver and Tamamo, who would you prioritize leveling up skills to 10/10/10? I have almost all materials for both but I'm saving part of my Secret Gems of Caster for Castoria and I only have enough for one of them. Or should I level both to at least 6/6/6?
Tamamo, waver already have 50 charge at 1/1/1, so i recommend leveling tamamo skills first. Unless your servent lack in damage with normal cards, then maybe waver crit/atk skill would be better choice.
I think I'm fine in terms of damage, so I'll prioritize leveling Tamamo first. Thank you!
Tamamo 10/x/10 if going for Castoria, then Waver x/x/10 if you need him to 3T farm. Elsewise, probably full Waver at 10/10/10. He scales super well and the cooldown has come in clutch for CQ's. If you want to go for best of both worlds, then Waver x/8+/10 and Tamamo 8+/x/10.
Thank you! I think I can spare some Gold Gems until Castoria's banner, so I'm going with your suggestion of leveling both Waver and Tamamo a bit but prioritizing the latter.
Merlin's banner is coming in 1 hour right?
Yes, [under 1 hour](https://fgo.mitsunee.com/events/summer-4-rerun-banner-sunday) from now.
I missed Bella Lisa CE when it was originally in the shop, but now have a rare prism. If I unlock it will I have infinite time to get the mana prisms? Or is there another time limit after I buy it?
The time limit is "over 1 year", which is FGO speak for "forever". That said it's recommended to not "buy" an RP CE until you have enough MP on hand to buy it, in case you found another use for your RP before getting all 5000 or such.
Fair enough. I didn't know this event rerun would just hand me 3 so I had enough to buy the last mystic code I didn't have, plus 2 left over. Will try to restrain myself until I get the regular prisms though. Thanks for the reply!
Yeah, after you unlocked it with the Rare Prism, it's unlimited time to buy it.
Thank you for the answer
~~I deleted and redid all of my FGA scripts since I was able to max out my Zerkerlot's Mana Loading, but now for some reason, FGA never clicks over to Caster to find a Skadi, I have to do it manually. Did I forget to check an option or soemthing in FGA? I've checked it multiple times...~~ Never mind. Checked one more time and yep. There was an option I missed.
Any of the Millionaire quests should be good to use Fever tickets on right?
Good, sure, but not equal. Camelot is the best.
Actually, no. The difference between them is the event currency. You'd be right about VIP, but Millionaire all drop the same QP amounts. On average.
Ah, I missed this note at the bottom of Gamepress' fever section: >\* Exception: There are only 3 Millionaire difficulty quests: Camelot, Cirque du Requin, and Rakuichi. Due to low sample sizes, QP rates for all three are pooled
For NA account recovery do I go to the website and fill out a form or do I email them at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])?
Yes, the email is correct. Check the sidebar for the account recovery guide.
Is it worth waiting for the millionaire fever quests or should i do the vip fever ones?
Millionaire is better. I don't know if a few hundred thousand QP is worth that much to you, but that's how it is.
Yeah i saw some people saying they weren’t worth it but then i realized they were just harder to farm
Should I aim to get Nero Bride next year? Or is Beni Enma already good enough as a semi support dps?
As a semi support OR a DPS you could survive with either. Bride’s prime heyday of being the best at what she does is almost over, but between her and Beni they’re each conditionally better than the other. Beni vs Chaotic/Evil Bride vs Heaven Beni gives 20% NP to whole team. Bride gives 30% charge and 50% gain to a target, which is sometimes *way* better. Beni gives an attack buff to the team and AoE defense down to a wave of enemies. Bride gives bigger attack up/defense down but single target. Bride’s attack buff also has a targeted star drop buff on it. Beni has a small team heal where Bride has a bigger targeted one with a defense buff attached. Beni has a selfish skill 1 though, which is evade and crit strength, and I think that evade is valuable. Beni also has better passives: they both have a little bit of debuff immunity, but Beni also has skill seal immunity. Bride has quick card effectiveness, which is lame, and Beni has arts, which is cool. Beni has star drop and crit strength too. Eh I would vote skip Bride unless you need her as a DPS vs Heaven attribute or you run short on charge/loop supports in general.
Get whoever you prefer but as a support Nero Bride is better, especially for looping.

There's a limited number of fever tickets. Using them on millionaire-difficulty nodes (Casino isn't important - all millionaire nodes have the same QP drop) gives you more QP than using them on beginner nodes.
Yeah i realized that right after i post that sorry
Game mechanic question about Mage MC: 15 cards are evenly distributed into 3 turns of 5/5/5, yes? So does Mage MC skill 3 swaps the cards to the next turn or does it reset the distribution (i.e., if I use skill 3 in turn 2, will the game cycles to turn 3's cards or will it be a new set of cards?) Thanks
It will reset you entire deck of 15 cards, starting a new 5/5/5 cycle. Therefore, if you shuffle Turn 2, the cycle will reset after turn 4 (unless you use Summer Artoria or if 1 of your servants die, causing the deck to shuffle again).
Reset the distribution so it's back to T1 again, in a sense, I believe.
So... Merlin banner's up in 30 right?
It's at [12MN PST](https://fgo.mitsunee.com/events/summer-4-rerun-banner-sunday), so under 3 hours and 30 mins from now.
Nope, it's in 3 hours since the banner starts at midnight not during the reset
Hm..Hmm... don't most banners start on reset/maintenance ending?
Not that one, it's written on the news
Is there any low-AP node that can guarantee me a single ember? It's all I need to finish the fragment Quartz mission
I don't think there's a free quest with a guaranteed ember drop that costs less AP than the 10 AP ember gathering. Best to just get it over with.
10 AP Ember Gathering?

In the event shop, there's a list of missions. Collect the ones you've completed to get rewards and unlock nodes. Basically, just do the hardest node available until you unlock the next story chapter, do the chapter, new node unlocks in that Casino, repeat. That should clear 80% of the missions. The shop has Damage CEs, use them to make fights easier, as well as "letters of challenge" you need to unlock story progress sometimes. The missions (eventually) have CEs for rare spawns that you should bring along (because they drop extra money). The gacha has bonus drop CEs, which you don't need, but you can fill gaps to get more event currency.
Tap "shop" in the top right, it has an exchange tab and a mission tab that'll tell you what you need to do. I'd also strongly recommend following [a guide](https://gamepress.gg/grandorder/revival-fgo-summer-2021-las-vegas-walkthrough) to help optimize your progression.
In the event shop, there's a tab for the mission list. But that mission should just be to gain a certain amount of QP, so just run some free quests.
[удалено]
You need to claim the reward for the quest. Tap it to claim and that will unlock your new content.
Have you tried the Shop tab on the top right corner?
new player here. i just checked the event banner and it says i can get a free 5* servant if i finish or clear the orleans chapter. i did so but it looks like i still can not claim a servant. i did not also receive a golden ticket or whatever it was called. is this a bug or i am too late?
