Fate/Grand Order (Mobile RPG)

I spent all of my ticket trying to get tamamo during halloween....... Spent 1 for okita and another 1 for this round of gacha(both 3 star). These 17 are all I have left T_T

It's one thing to splurge extra 'play' cash you have in your budget, but another thing to get into CC debt. The guy is trying to max Scathach's NP omfg.

EDIT:
@kuroi, 17 tickets only? I think we have already more than 40-50 free tickets.

Well, amount wise it's not such a big money, only around 2000 dollars? And the installments are just 60 dollars each month, but the interest rate really shocked me lol. 20% in 0% deposit rate like Japan? Must gave loan money from yakuza or something I agree that it's a really stupid things to do though

[larethian]

Oh you were talking about what's left I see I see. Let's hope Tamamo get another rate-up, it will be quite hard to get her from the story gacha.

[Unknown Soldier]

Event over. I still have zero 5* servants. I've been playing since Gilgamesh was available. If DW expects me to ever spend a dime on them, they can go fuck themselves right now. Give me at least one 5* servant from a roll and I'll think about it. Otherwise you can get fucked DW.

It's too bad there are apparently many people who have spent hundreds or even thousands of US Dollars on this game already. My not giving DW money accomplishes nothing, because they are just feasting on whale meat right now.

I won't even try to roll unless there's a rate up for her during start of 4th chapter....

And 20 void dust (who cares about this, I already have like 183 of them), and Gudao CEs (who cares I have like 6 or 7 drops). Remind me to roll for event +drop CE when I'm on a trip next time. T_T

I also didn't clear the shop, but about the talon, it's too valuable not to be traded

Now at 318 quartz + 25 summon ticket save for Iskandar / Enkidu...will be around 100 roll, hopefully will get them when the time come...

Time to go back to level up my Okita at lv 40 now...just checked the Excel Mega Spreadsheet, going from 40 to 90 need 410 exp 4* card...in average we got 7 exp 4* that means 59 run of 40AP...ouch...
1 day = 7 run....need 9 days to max it...OMG

Never forget about the person who spent $9000 USD only to get 1 Scathach.

That was a joke post. Not saying that there aren't people who have spent that much on FayGO. This Reddit post is interesting:

Thank you for letting me know.

Nobu-sama, I have failed ye by 54 hiraichigumo...

[Starlightz]

I didn't clear the shop either, should have saved apples at the start. I guessed that the quests might get better later on, but the excitement took me Got around 2.8 Mil points at the end, bought everything except all the Silver XP cards, HP Fou-kuns, Void Dusts and 16 Golem Cores. Got 2 Extra Gudao CEs after fully ascended one, so in hindsight I shouldn't have bought those Gudao CEs by Hiragumo that early. Well, that happened, nothing I can do about it now. On the other hand, I don't need those that I wasn't able to buy that badly, so it doesn't hurt too much.

Since you guys were doing a recap, let's me see how lucky (or unlucky) I'm too! Got my 100th day login bonus around 2 weeks ago, so far my servants are
5*: Altera, Okita, Orion.
4*: Nobu, Loli pirate, LizCaster, LizLancer (freebie), Tamameow, Carmillia, EMIYA, Alter, Lancelot.
1-3*: All of them except the new two (Diarmuid and -_- guy) + Gilles Caster.
Should have started earlier for Lily, but I was skeptical towards "another Fate game?".

CEs: all of >=3 Stars CEs, except FemHakuno, the new CEs (Boar, Fragments & Dan), Maidusa, Bathing Goddess, Petit Devil, Prisma Cosmos and Rin 5 Stars +25% Arts. Guess I'm not too lucky with the event CEs.

All in all, I guess that looks good? B+ to A rank luck, I guess.

I agree with this statement. What this guy needs is a job. Instead of a loan.

[El Rue]

Bought out all the Fou's & EXP cards & got some mats but I felt wasn't enough. I got around 1,700,000+ points in the end. Ah, used up my quartz stock,I didn't get Shishou but I got my cute little Medea Lily, NTR King, Drill Saber and other nice stuff so its all good.

I guess its time to finish all those remaining free nodes & all those Interludes left untouched.

Mm, maybe I'll post my stuff later for people to see.

Not really unexpected. In my experience to date, pareto's law holds. ie. '20% of my clients give 80% of my revenue' and v.v.
All these time-limited events that DW is having is targeting this 20%. Though I'm not too sure whether we can call gacha games a proper ethical business rather than a casino/pachinko parlor in disguise...

Well at any rate, I doubt Scathach will appear in story gacha. Another campaign rate-up cannot be ruled out, but just not the story gacha. Since the statement in the news was pretty non-ambiguous. If they put her in the story gacha later, they would be deemed to have misled the players, and I doubt the story will end well when that happens.

Yeah talons are valuable, but they are easier to farm than horseshoes, and gears and babies are not farmable, so I went for them first.

[Kakurin]

Hm, I probably will have 40 quartz again before the Scathach window ends. That's a dilemma. On the other hand I would really like to have another try, on the other hand I'm thinking that I perhaps should save them if they do something for Christmas.

Yeah, that's about what I'm thinking. Generally my luck with those mobage draws isn't great. After playing Love Live for well over a year I've drawn a total of three UR cards - all are of the same attribute and two are the same card. But on the other hand, I'm not getting irritated anymore by crappy draws.

While it's not necessarily a casino since you get a guaranteed return for your money, however crappy it may be, it is a form of gambling - which is why I'm not going to spend money on these games since I'm not a gambler.

[R.LocK]

I'm just glad it's not a global game, so it doesn't accept all kinds of currency.

Global games are evil. Unless they're FF:RK where you don't have to cash out for characters.

[5596050]

2nd account, lost my first account around 2 weeks into the game I think?

105 days login

Servants -

5*: Artemis/Orion
4*: Anne/Mary, Casthory (Free), D'eon, Emiya, Marie (Free), Saber Lily (Free) and Siegfried
3*: All of them except for Diarmuid and Fergus

CES -

5* Moonlight Fes, Nightless Rose, Halloween Princess, Maid in Halloween, Formal Craft 2x and GUDAO
4* Hollow Magic 2x, With One Strike, Gandr 2x, Angel's Poem, Luvia CE, Bazette CE, Launch Order and Kirei Abs
3* One Leyline, the others are all fed to higher star CES

OTL nearly everything is from events.

[Ryoshi]

I gave in and bought a pack of quartz.... and boy I'm soooo glad I did!

First roll net me Camilla, which I forgot to screenshot because a colleague nearly walked in on me and I hastily skipped everything (I probably shouldn't be doing this at work). I did get an unusual number of 3 star servants for this roll though (3 of them lancers, which I'd been praying would turn into golds), I think I saw only two CEs the entire roll...

Feeling lucky I went again and...

Spoiler for That Second roll!:

And I've even got enough quartz left to save up for another two big rolls for whatever comes at Christmas.

I think I've used up my entire year's worth of luck. Good thing the New Year is just around the corner



@larethian, holy crap that person must be desperate to get Scathach
I don't think I could spend over my entire budget just to play this or any game though, if it means I have to starve for god knows how long just to repay that sort of money...


As for my results in the Nobu event, I managed to sneak in 1.6M of the main points at the end of the event. The last 1AP mission was the clincher, because I was at 1.4M before that.
I only managed to buy out just half of all the servant materials though. I spent way too much time just gaining Master exp to even upgrade my servants enough to play most missions. I guess the one positive is that I managed to level my team cost from a meagre 63 to the current 85, so story missions should be way easier than before.

Grats Ryoshi!

[Starway]

Nah they were just making a joke that everyone took serously they admitted they were full of shit later although I'm pretty sure him and several other have spent around that much.
