    While this event was a real grindfest, I did manage to hit max level, and with it, the fabled 112 cost party. I wish I got more of the rare gold servant gems.

    What is the max level?

    I managed to get most of what I needed (though I did miss getting one of the Crystallized Lores, but I still have about 7 of them so I guess I can do without). Now I have everything I need to finish maxing Lalter's skills, get one more of Heracles's to 10, and the last of Jalter's skills to 8... as soon as I can raise the absurd amount of QP that's all going to cost. Man, do I wish I had that Mona Lisa CE to speed this up a little bit...

    I believe the current maximum Master Level is 140. I think that gets raised around when LB2 comes out, if memory serves, to 150. Master Level 140 means that you have 140 AP, a team cost of 112 (as Invincible pointed out), and 80 friends. At 150, that will go up to 142 AP, 113 cost, and 90 friends.

    With the Journey to the West event over, I can safely say... I'm glad it's over. The writing for the event was great, but even as a light rerun, it was grindy, and I didn't clear the shop - not because I couldn't, but because I couldn't be bothered. Granted, I polished off all the blazes and Fous, and some elite mats, but I have over 100 of a lot of materials and didn't feel a particular need to grow those numbers further.

    At least now I can go back to quietly farming stakes. I'm... lemme check... about a third of the way to an Eresh skill. Yaaay.

    Thanks for the info. I'm up to 131, so I've still got a ways to go. I definitely want that 112 team cost, but I really couldn't care less about getting my friend limit that high. As it is, I went all the way down to 15 friends during this last event because refreshing constantly to get the friends with support CE's I needed was such a massive pain in the butt.

    Speaking of which, I did unfriend a couple people by accident, so if there's anyone here I got rid of, I didn't mean to and I will happily add you back if you want.

    I hear ya, i've been making sure to get every event stake, and every ticket stake this month and after doing some Salem grinding I have 1 ereash skill done and a bit more than half the second. And then there is the bridge destroying Archer to skill up after that... And she is almost as bad.

    Same with me. I only finished Salem just before Saber Wars - I used the QP from that to get her Mana Burst to 10 - and then I was primarily farming QP to finally max out my Waver.

    Next month ticket has Stakes too, so it's far less excruciating than it could be. I'll probably only need to grind for one of her skills, unless there's another event shop with 30+ Stakes in the near future.

    Though, at the moment, I spun on the Apocrypha banner hoping to get either Jack of Jeanne. I got Orion, Siegfried x2, Angry Puppy, Suzaku Gozen, and Jeanne D'Arc. I had next to no QP going into that, so I'm going to be treading water just to get Siegfried and Jeanne usable for the event.

    I've heard the Apocrypha event is relatively rich in QP, that's why I'm refraining.

    Besides, even if that isn't true, the Chaldea Vaults aren't going anywhere and the AP cost sadly is always going to be the same for the foreseeable future. For now I can focus on getting class-specific XP and benefiting from the levelling bonus chance for two of 'em.

    I like that I can feed the off-Class embers to Jeanne - and then Lobo - while building my ember bank for the Sabers and Archer... it's very clean.

    I'm so happy right now because Karna got an animation update for the Apocrypha event Pre-Release. I'm still short some gold lancer gems, and in desperate need of QP, but this should be a fun event coming up.

    Whelp, got through the Sanzang event... Alright. I wound up a bit short on time (and willingness to grind) towards the end, but managed to collect the stuff I needed, which mostly means gems, XP cards and a decent chunk of materials. Finished Septem as well, which... Was not great. After the encounter with Caesar it's pretty much all downhill, and even Kidexander and Waver managed to not pay off basically at all. If I was playing right when the game came out, and that was the last bit of story available I'm not sure I wouldn't just have dropped it in disgust. Even the confrontation with Lev managed to be underwhelming and lame.

    My team's getting better, to the point I could do all the missions except the last reincarnation one in this event without much trouble. Altera's at level 80 now, with her skills steadily improving, and thanks to Septem being done I have access to her interludes to boost her up even more. Cu and Ushi are nearly maxed out on levels (without Grails), and both doing well on skills as well. With Euryale still stuck (stupid serpent gems), I've started training up David too, since I pulled a couple of copies on single rolls during the event. He looks solid, if not spectacular, as a general counterpart to Euryale's specialist role. Full team evade is a real trip; if only it wasn't on a nightmare cooldown.

    The next event... Looks really important to me, considering it comes with a freebie 4* general-purpose Caster. Not sure how good Sieg is, but I'll be wanting to invest time into this one just to have access to him, what with my still very limited pool of gold Servants available. As a result, I'm just logging in for long enough to collect my bonuses and chip away slightly at the interludes and rank-ups for my core team in the hopes that I won't get burned out during the Apocrypha event.

    Otherwise... I've had terrible luck with rolls recently. Did a 10-pull on the Apocrypha Red banner because it's pretty much full of Servants I like, got... Nothing, essentially. A copy of Ushi, 8 bad 3* CEs and the healing boosting 4*. Literally nothing Apocrypha-connected at all. Between that and some single rolls, my last 15 rolls have had 11 3* CEs (IE, useless fodder), and I haven't seen a silver Servant out of FP summons in nearly two weeks. Not to mention no gold Servants in the last ~70 rolls. Aren't they supposed to be collectively about 1 in 25? Blech.

    Pretty sure the art of the Heal Boosting CE is of Assassin of Black's Master.

    I basically ditched the Journey event about halfway through the event time, grind was way too much/confusing for me, went back to Ember farming. Had like 14 Gold Servants to level. Managed to max level a few of them, now trying to level the Seigfried I had abandoned in time for the event.

    In gacha news I tossed a lol roll on the story banner earlier in the week as it was my birthday. Got a 5 star servant on it so that was nice. What wasn't nice was that it was my second copy of OG Saber, who is considered one of the poorer 5 stars in the game. Already have NP 2 Saber Alter for my AoE Buster Saber NPs, so not all that great.

    On the plus side, I have nearly max bonded Nero Bride and Lancer Artoria, the amount of Ember farming I'm doing along with a 3 turn team that allows me to run double Lunchtime is really raking in the Bond Points. Going through more Apples now then the last 3 events.

    And with all the talk of the numbers of stakes needed for Eresh makes me real glad that banner dumped me with Nightingale and my 4th Ozy rather then her. Much easier grinding there, especially as at that point my Ozy was already 10/10/10. But I did end up with Fujino in the Garden of Sinners rerun so I'm not free of the stake grind. And I am in real need of more Proofs. I got a bad run of 5+ servants all needing them, and in such numbers its totally drained my pool of them that had been sitting high from the time of them being the only log in bonus. Which, looping back to talk of the upcoming event, I need a few more of them for the final Ascension of Seigfried if I'm going to have him mostly usable for the event.

    Nope. It's Irisviel. I did pull a Necromancy, so I technically got something Apocrypha-related. In the form of a bad 3* CE.

    I'm really happy for my Atalanta personally. The other updates are cool, but she honestly had one of, if not the, worst NP animations for a 4-star in the game. Just coloured lines appearing from nowhere, it wasn't even worth talking about. Her combat animations weren't much better, though the various generic light orb-throwers were worse. The update is so much better it's not even worth remembering what they used to be.

    Which one is the one you are talking about then? Gentle Affection (boost heal power by 15%) is the one I'm thinking of, and its of Assassin of Black's Master. And unless you are joking about Necromancy being worse then most 4* CEs, I thought it was a 4* CE.

    *Logs on to check*

    Ah, that's actually my mistake. I pulled Angel's Song, not the healing boosting one. For some reason I thought it was the healing boosting one, even though they're not similar looking at all. Necromancy is a 4* as well, as it would turn out. An awful 4* if you don't feel like gambling a whole bunch, but it is worth slightly more XP. So I guess I got two 4* CEs out of that. Which really isn't much better.

    So I allowed myself just one 10-pull on this gacha. Got myself a Horsey Teacher! . . . and absolutely nothing else, not even an event CE.

    Well, I'm not facing this event without an event CE. So against my better judgment, another 10-pull. This time, I got two event CEs - both the silver one for the Hippo Plushie.

    ... at least I got Horsey Teacher.

    Holy crap does the QP roll in with the Servant battles in this event.

    Also got two drops of the damage up CE, which in itself is pretty good. I'm hoping the drop rate for those continues to be this kind with these raid-type things.

    I went all in for Achilles, because my Rider game is very weak except for Kintoki (seriously, my only AOE option right now is Medusa). With around 200 SQ, I didn't get him. But I did get Tomoe Gozen, Siegfried, Fionn, and Mordred, as well as 5 copies of a 3* event CE and 2 copies of a 4* event CE. So definitely not empty-handed.

    So now I have a question: who do I build first between Mordred and Siegfried? It's worth noting that my current Saber servants include summer Fran and Arthur Prototype, who is already level 90, skills maxed, and NP2. I know there's overlap between his kit and Mordred's, so I guess the question is does Siegfried offer enough utility to justify doing him before Mordred?

    I did three 10-rolls, got nothing useful on the first two, but thankfully got 3 event 4-star CEs and 2 5-star ones on the last, plus Chiron as a bonus.

    Did a few single pulls with some quartz I scraped together, hoping for event CEs. Didn't get any of those, unfortunately.

    ... Did get Achilles, though. There goes my drought. Can't complain about gacha luck for a while now. If I throw all the XP cards from the event at him ASAP, I can probably have him up to speed before too long.

    Sorry, Ushi. You're good, but Achilles you ain't.

    I only have 30 quartz left after my last time trying to solve my shortage of riders who aren't Astolfo and Marie. Might burn any tickets I get from the event on trying for Achilles, but don't think that's my luck.

    Siegfried's built to kill dragons (also every dragon-trait Servant like Liz and the many, many Artorias) and dragons are both prolific, strong, and very rarely Archers in events and main quests. He is really quite mediocre outside of that, but it is definitely a nice niche to have to go against any of those giant dragons, wyverns, or just fight Artoria/Liz Lancer whenever they appear.

    So, having him around is cool, but I wouldn't be levelling mine now specifically if it weren't for the event.

    Edit: Also, he has the Dragon trait as well, so he benefits from Jalter's extra Charisma buff. Which is always nice.

    Congrats on Achilles! He seems really good based on the support one I used earlier.

    Extra bonus from Jalter plus bonus damage against actual dragons does sound like a useful niche. I think I'm gonna build Mordred first though. Might do Siegfried next - it's either him or Tomoe for sure. I don't really need Fionn since I've got a lot of good lancers and he seems kinda sketchy anyway.

    Rolled Twice and aside from the 5star CE the only thing of Note was Lancer Vlad so that's settled my lack of a higher than three star lancer (technically i have tween carmila but i do not like her, the only reason she is still in the archive is that since she was one of my starters she got a lot bond of early on) Not that Vlad Lancer really appeals to me either.

    New event is fun, i like these events with the rewards tracks.

    Rolled two 10s on the Black banner before I realized the faction banners don't drop event CEs. Got Jeanne, though, so it paid off anyway!
    When in doubt, light something on fire.

    Extra bonus from Jalter plus bonus damage against actual dragons does sound like a useful niche. I think I'm gonna build Mordred first though. Might do Siegfried next - it's either him or Tomoe for sure. I don't really need Fionn since I've got a lot of good lancers and he seems kinda sketchy anyway.
    Thanks! All signs point to Achilles being an excellent all-around Rider, particularly for someone like me who doesn't have as much flexibility in team-building as a more established player. I won't hesitate to say that about the only Servant on any banner I've rolled on recently that would have been more impactful to pull is Jeanne (or Waver, but he's usually easy to find on my friends list if I want him), so I'm quite pleased. While Ushiwakamaru wasn't one of my weaker class frontrunners (that would go to Euryale and debatably Medea), and I'll probably still use her in Caster-heavy environments, Achilles is both a very capable tank and a devastating damage dealer who's both a great farmer (NP battery and an AOE NP, it's a no-brainer) and good at tough fights (Target Focus, multi-use Invulnerability with an added defense buff, excellent crit rates and star generation). And he's got good animations and is easy on the eyes. Everything I could possibly want out of a Servant.

    ... If you have access to Mordred, how could you not use her? Best Saberface, and my favorite Apocrypha character (barely edging out Vlad). I might even trade Altera for her, and getting me to pick someone over Giant Alien Waifu isn't easy.



    In Event news... I quite like this one so far. It's grindy, sure, but at least there's a pretty good variety of battles to grind through (not just Flaming Mountain twenty times then Tianzhu twenty times), and the rewards have been pretty good from the start. I don't think I've done a quest, including the little ones, that didn't drop an extra Material or two. Not to mention the... Wow, five million QP I've gained from it already.

    Particulary since the recent animation update, been playing London and she is a lot of fun to use now.

    So, this is JP content, but it is really good news.

    The JP server will be getting an SSR ticket, similar to the SR "pick your servant" Ticket, but with an extra S. The servant will be from a list (mostly Story Gacha servants), and it will require Masters to raise their Bond to 5 and fully ascend them, but inthe end, it's a free SSR! DW is killing those memes right now! Now we need certain blacksmith to finally eat our SQ.
    Check out which is the Playground's favorite Dragon!

    Oh~

    The selection certainly isn't bad. I'd probably pick Tamamo, Jack, or maybe one of the soon-to-come SSRs like Europa depending on my roster in two years.

    The idea of them becoming a temporary Servant until you Bond them to 5 is a smart idea on their part. It's a small issue for those regular players who'd do that anyways and wouldn't complain about using a Servant they presumably wanted anyways but for those who'd just log in for the reward and then disappear they can leverage you into playing for a not-insignificant amount of time. I only got Jeanne to bond five this morning after using her in essentially every mission I've had since I got her - her second interlude is at 4 and represents a massive power-spike for her - and that's with this event in place and repeated use of Apples.

    Agreed. The worst part of it is needing to be around during a specific timeframe to get access to the raid battles, but even that doesn't look like it'll be too bad. The first day's raids went super fast (I think they only lasted maybe two hours each), but today it looks like we'll have quite a while to deal with it, and from the looks of things it'll get even bigger in terms of numbers as time goes on. The rewards for the raid battles are so disgustingly immense (~1 million QP, 10k+ event points and usually about 30 shop currency base, plus a couple of random Ascension materials) it's hard not to look at everything else in the event as pointless filler.

    Huh. Is there a timeframe to fully ascend the Servant to keep them forever? I assume there must be. Knowing the timing of that one in advance so I can make sure to have the requisite materials on hand will probably be valuable. Though if it's future news for JP, it's not something to worry about for a long time now.


    In other news, got a couple of summon tickets from daily bonus and the event, put them into the event banner. Still hoping for event CEs. Still didn't get them.

    ... Instead I got Chiron. Twice. Huh. This event has been very, very kind to me. I should probably pick out a couple of d6s to sacrifice in thanks to the RNG gods.
