Fate/Grand Order (Mobile RPG)

[El Rue]

The extra work of farming talismans to again farm drops is getting kind of tiring. Double farming sucks out fun.

Points for anyone who gets that reference, but seriously, they do.

Mythological Gods are known to usually give the laws of physics, morality & gravity the middle finger.

Oh hey page 666, Demonic Servant confirmed for the next event!

Don't slut shame clothing. She's a freaking goddess. If she wants to dress a certain way, it doesn't matter how provocative it is. She'll break anyone who tries to touch her that she doesn't want doing so.

No one in software writes release notes like that. If a graphical update is accompanied by mechanics update, it will be explicitly stated unless they want a shitstorm.
And previously, I never saw such assumptions made for other battle graphics update. Why now? Completely illogical to me.

This. I'm going to assume it's just fixing her glitchy attack animation that I sometimes see.

What nods are you guys farming? I've been doing the 40AP that drops the gold ones. I need to buy those horseshoes from the shop. Or maybe I should focus on the Taliman node? I still haven't cleared the 400 talisman quest.

In contrast, Apollo in-game is an emo atoner, searching for Artemis so he can apologize, but she always runs away

There are many version of that story. One is Artemis being tricked into killing Orion and another is Orion tried to rape Artemis so she smote him down.

Yep...you should be better farming the talisman node..
And after that farming at Indian nodes with 100 talisman
The way it drops much much better there..

In my case, i keep farming talisman, but still not used them..now i have around 2k talisman (rip farming Indian)
I'll wait and see tomorrow unlocked quest before i use them all

I've been doing the 30 AP one, because it drops a bit of everything, and there's a lot of purchasing to be done. I dunno if it's actually optimal this way though.

The 100 talisman one drops a lot of everything.

Hmm, I see.


As for farming, I do the Flaming Mountain for talismans, then do the 100 talisman quest.

Just did 100 talisman 3 times, and the drops are good if you bring event CEs and Servants to boost the drops

Spoiler for my method:

For the Flaming Mountain, I use Vlad (formalcraft), Shiki (3 Heroes), Support Jack (3 Heroes), and 3 more Servants with 3 Heroes. Using the Magic Association outfit.
When I get to the last battle of the Dragon+Nightingale, everyone's NP is charged. I activate Shiki and Jack's skills, let Shiki go first at the Dragon, followed by Vlad and finally Jack, who finishes Nightingale.

For 100 Talisman, it's Sanzou (with Empieta or Lady leading Chaldea), Drake (Final Destination), Support Lancer (usually Brynhildr with True Samadhi Flame). Then in the back: Nero (School of Chaldea), David and Lu Bu. Also using the Magic Association outfit.

Basically, I charge the NP of all Servants before the red demon, or at least charged enough to be able to fill the rest quickly.
I let Drake shoot her NP (or even do an NP Brave chain), but I don't use her Voyager of the Storm (saving that for later). If it doesn't kill the demon, I finish it off while trying to charge NP a bit more.

Against Arjuna and Karna I use the damage buff skills of the Servants (like Voyager of the Storm, etc.). By now Drake's Pioneer of the Stars should be avaliable again, I use it to fill NP once more and fire all three together, letting Drake go first (targetting Arjuna), Bryn second (which should finish off Arjuna) and Sanzou last (who'll be attacking Karna).
Now, the demons seems to like to attack Sanzou a lot, that's why I give her Empieta (LB), in case she gets KO'ed, the CE's second effect is triggered ...but that usually only happens when facing Arjuna and Karna, and after using her NP.
If that happens, Nero steps in and finishes off Karna.

^That's basically what I do.

[belatkuro]

Shouldn't have bought the last CE in the shop as I got a CE drop. Waste of 300 gold currency. I could just skip buying the hearts and scales in the shop since I'm getting a lot of them in the talisman quest and the India quest. I'll leave them for last I guess.

[McW]

How weird? I can't find today's tasliman daily? So are we skipping it today?

I am using Bryn Waver Sanzou (Halloween Iry). I use Buddha punch demon in first turn, once or twice against red demon and same with Karna. Bryn kills Arjuna and occasionally weaken Karna too. Her ability give stars to other helps Our sexy monk fill her gauge even faster.

Sanzou is really good on spamming her NP with her 3 arts star generation and taunt. It would be even better if she had her third skill already but plumes are hell...

Against dragons I just field two Shutens, kill first two waves with regular attacks and finish final one with their two NPs and bunch of buffs.

Hah? Isn't number of hits some figure put into the code, animation be damned? It's not like this game has actual hitboxes and stuff...it's not a fighting game

[Tenzen12]

No it's not. Every servant hits as many times you see him to hit. Though I didn't know fighting games do such things as well...

No....I have been killed by poison or curse after taking out the last enemy enemy before and it counted as a loss.



Anyway, Jack shld be able to solo that mission easily (I mean Maria alone can do 2-300K dmg to Nightingale)

If that were true then Gil is doing way too little hits for his Bs lol

[Kakurin]

He's got a five-hit buster card.

[FlameSparkZ]

Attacks done simultaneously count as one hit, like a dual wielding character attacking with both weapons...iirc, that applies to Jack's B attack.

And didn't he get an overall improvement with the changes done in the Zero event?

[Kakurin]

He got an eight-hit extra card.

[Cosmic Eagle]

Yeah for like how many weapons flying out of his cache if we want to use animation to determine hit count

[Tenzen12]

It's about separate hits. Gil may shoot lot if weapons but also lot of them hit in same time, making it one hit.

[Klard]

Have some Jeanne ppl

Spoiler for I though this was Takeuchi drawing at first lol:

[NovelReader]

I have 1.2k talismans ready for tonight. Hopefully the new quests will net better rewards.
