Fate/Grand Order II - Top Kōhai

[Blackhawk748]

Compromise. How about Iron Fist Magical Saint, Ruler☆Martha?

Missed this (somehow). This title is good, and will probably annoy her. I'll just hide behind Beowulf.

Also, to those who don't know, that Grail War generator Fel posted awhile back? It changes depending on server time, so i've been periodically doing it to see if i get anything interesting, and i just got this one today.

Spoiler: The Grail War of Chicago

Show

Blackhawk748 participates in the Holy Grail War of Chicago as the master of Lancer

The Servants participating in this war are:

Saber：Siegfried
Archer：Atalante
Lancer：Leonidas
Rider：Achilles
Caster：William Shakespeare
Assassin：Okada Izou
Berserker：Kiyohime
Extra class：Edmond Dantès

First: Its in Chicago, immediately giving me an advantage as virtually every mage in a grail war is not from America, so i can blend in better.

Second: Leonidas is actually flipping amazing. Rearguards Pride apparently gives him a bonus that increases with how outmatched he is in the situation. When combined with his NP (whisch is also great) it means he can block Anti-Army NPs

Third: His NP. Thermopylae Enomotia summons 300 Spartans who all possess between E and C rank Endurance who protect me and Leo from an attack. After the attack, they dogpile the attacker. I like this NP.

So, ya. I actually feel ok about this war. Me and Leo arent dragons, so Sieg has no bonus, Leo has a massive Shield to stop Atalante, Chicago is a crowded mess so Achilles is at a disadvantage and Shakespeare is...well Shakespeare. The two id be most concerend with are Kiyo (cuz she's her) and Okada as he specializes in killing Humanoid Enemies. Then Dante is just a flipping Wildcard

I'd be less concerned with Kiyo and Dantes, and way more concerned with Shakespeare. I remind you of two things. First, Shakespeare is the only person that the all-compassionate Jeanne will never forgive, because of what he did during Fate/Apocrypha. First Folio is really good for mind-sporking someone, and Leonidas has a very big regret that's easy to exploit. Second, Shakespeare loves tragedies, and Leonidas' story is basically already one. A famous one. We all know how it ends. You don't want to see the Bard do his interpretation of it.

Still, you have a pretty good chance against a lot of the others.

Let's see where Fate takes me this time.

Spoiler: The Grail War of Macedonia

Show

Red Fel participates in the Holy Grail War of Macedonia as the master of Rider

The Servants participating in this war are:

Saber：Fergus mac Róich
Archer：Gilgamesh
Lancer：Odin
Rider：Ushiwakamaru
Caster：Tamamo-no-Mae
Assassin：Carmilla
Berserker：Susanoo
Extra class：None

Huh. Okay. I'm in Macedonia, Master of Rider, and there's no sign of the best Macedonian Rider.

On the one hand, Ushi is Best Decapitator, and will gladly bring me all the heads. On the other, there are two actual divines, one semi-divine, and the King of Heroes.

Fergus and Carmilla I'm not too worried about. Casko is dangerous. Plus side, she and Susanoo will probably try to kill each other, because Amaterasu and her brother weren't terribly chummy. And Fergus might throw himself at Odin, which would be terrifically amusing but wouldn't end well for Fergus.

Gilgamesh, though, is an opportunist. He'll probably lurk until the last fight. And while he hates the gods, he's not going to stick his neck out to fight one, especially against freaking Odin. You know, the guy who invented those Runes that Shishou and Caster!Cu love so much. The guy who basically made Skadi. (She's Merlin for Quick meta.) The guy whose weapon is the prototype for Gae Bolg.

I love my Best Decapitator, but I'mma lose bad, here.

[ImperatorV]

So, it turns out today was my 350th day of FGO. So I got twenty quartz which I spent predictably, and... I got Illya! Everything is ok now.

[Resileaf]

Congratulations! You were rewarded for your good service by the gods of RNG!

[NeoPhoenix0]

anyone else suddenly have almost every hidden mission become collectible and 100 qp?

i don't think i want to activate them...

[Resileaf]

It's a glitch and it affects everyone. If you click on them, the game crashes and restarts.
Apparently they're working on a fix.

[Hunter Noventa]

This dark and meme-ish aura...

[Resileaf]

Finished the main story, I'm on the second part now. Leveled Chloe to 63 with the embers I could buy, will probably be able to max her out with the shop embers that will be released in September. Now I just need to increase her bond and farm mats. Am going to use all those mats to raise her skills as much as I can since the shop seems to sell everything she needs but gems.

[Hunter Noventa]

Took down Phantom and Blackbeard this morning. Phantom was pretty easy, Black a little harder due to being a zerker, but a full party armed with buster boost CEs made relatively quick work of him.

I've got Chloe to 70, and hopefully I can finish things up later today and settle in to grind. I already got all the Embers so far, will need some Fous and of course all the skill mats.

[Rusty Spoon]

First Gentleman I've taken down is Gilles, he wasn't too tough but his Evil Eye stun is annoying. He spammed it constantly on his final fight
Probably going to chomp a gold fruit or two today to power through some more quests/missions.
I've had one each Kaleid Ruby and Sapphire drop since beating the First Lady. Kind of annoying and useful at the same time. Oh well.

[HMS Invincible]

I think it's Bs that I have to level Chloe in order to complete all the missions.i still have scathatch to level from the beach.

[nightwyrm]

Buy all the 4* EXP cards from the shop. That should get you most of the way to lv60.

[NeoPhoenix0]

I beat up blackeard good and proper. Even in his final form summer Tamamo one shot him.

That's nothing, I've wasted fully charged NPs on Diarmuid when hit by Love Spot's attack down, and when he had evade up. That wasn't fun.

[nightwyrm]

Remember to do your dailies for class gems. You can't get those gems from the event.

[Hunter Noventa]

Oh thanks for the reminder.

So, is there a good way to do the last stage of Testament other than brute force? I mean, she outright erases someone on the first round every time...and nevermind, bringing Mash to tank that first shot does wonders for keeping my support alive.

[nightwyrm]

You can use Mash to taunt and invul herself to negate the first hit.

Mash the ultimate magical girl, protects her team from destruction.

[Callos_DeTerran]

I think with a little luck, buying all the 4* EXP cards from the shop and the 3*s as well will get Chloe to where she needs to be.

[Resileaf]

Using every shop ember will put Chloe somewhere around lvl 65, depending on your luck with great and super successes.

[Rusty Spoon]

I'm whittling down Blackbeard now, might try her next, so far he's just kinda tedious.

That's nothing, I've wasted fully charged NPs on Diarmuid when hit by Love Spot's attack down, and when he had evade up. That wasn't fun.

Ugh, sounds frustrating. Note to self, bring Sure Hit and Invuln Pierce vs Diarmuid.

Derp, I remembered but accidentally did a couple of ember farms and was surprised by the lack of gems.

Gotta say, doesn't feel like I'll have to do much grinding. Already burning my way through the event shop. Feels weird.

[Yael]

Whew, been away for a bit. In the good news, I rolled a 30-SQ pull in the first day of the event and I got Illya, I didn't even targetted for her, it was just luck... I hope this doesn't affect my chances with Ishtar in the near future

Also I haven't finished the event, school is hard at the moment, I hope I can get to finish it during the weeken, as the ending date is coming due.

[Hunter Noventa]

Ugh, sounds frustrating. Note to self, bring Sure Hit and Invuln Pierce vs Diarmuid.

His evasion only lasts one round, and he doesn't spam it, so it's not as bad as it sounds, that was just me not paying close enough attention.

[Resileaf]

I've unlocked every gentleman, I'll be working on beating them after work. Will probably use apples to get them all down so I can work on the final final boss afterwards.

[Red Fel]

So, Blackbeard is a Berserker, the only class against whom a Ruler has advantage.

He's on a boat, which means near water.

He's accompanied by Lancers, which means bringing a Saber, and those usually have Charisma.

Martha is at the absolute peak of her game. I almost feel sorry for how easily she crushes him.

[Resileaf]

Well, it sounds like a Jeanne, Artoria and support Ruler Martha will be my team when I fight him. :D

[Hunter Noventa]

I finished off everything last night, except for the bonus fight, but I got all the missions finished, so I can just farm some stuff now thankfully.

It looks like the next couple events, if we go by the JP releases, are Nero festival Redux, followed by Halloween redux and then the new Halloween event. Guess I'll save what quartz i can for a try at Cleopatra.

[Resileaf]

October is gonna be a busy month, innit.

Given how much CE xp is dropping, does anyone know about CE bombing? I asked about it earlier, but even the experienced players aren't aware of it.

I am currently feeding two 1* bombs up to 50. They are at 41 and 42, with a couple of millions to feed extra EXP.
