Gotta upgrade those 4*/5* Craft Essences with something.

edit: Do the event Craft Essences give their bonus even if backup servants use them, or do they need to be equipped on your starting party? I got the 5* one from a gacha ticket and I'm wondering if I should stick the 3* one on one of my backup guys.

Speaking of which, that 5* CE (it appears to be a different one than the one you can purchase from the event shop) appears to be incredibly useful. 500HP/turn over a long fight is a pretty huge deal. It's much better than the Nero CE from the last event.

They stack no matter where they are in your party.

So apparently they're gonna implement a 2 to 1 gold dango trade when the event ends, making any run that isnt the 5 AP inefficient. http://typemoon.com/news/2015/s60qh1

Why does this Archer want dangos when she's got dangos for days.

Gonna skip the joke to quote some translations. :v:

quote:

the dango are technically an offering to gods, so even though they didn't mean to the Chaldea team kinda woke Artemis up by having tsukimi in a place with a HS summoning system. But when she woke up she was "hungry" (no magical energy) so she wanted the dango to recharge (offerings to the moon -> she's a moon goddess -> "these are all for me lol"). So she tried to steal them but there were traps around the fridge (???) so she transported the fridge's contents into Orleans, but then they got intercepted by Marie & co, so she had Guda & co go after them for her. And once she's had enough dango to be powered up to Servant level she fights them to test their abilities in case they summon her someday.
Orion appears at the very beginning making muffled noises and gets shut up by Artemis but otherwise isn't involved at all lol.

It's had a healthy following in the west for a long time, not super popular but it's know pretty well amongst even like... I can't put this any other less pretentious way, but surface level anime fans. It helps that it was an entire meme on 4Chan for the longest time.

I dunno man, but the series keeps getting localizations for anime and games (Except CCC) and the possibility of an official localization becomes realer now that a Vita port and massive demand for Mangagamer to localize it exists.

I'm not gonna say it's realistic, but the series does keep finding ways to remain relevant.

Is there any good reason to want it, other than just to collect different CEs? It seems like it doesn't take long to acquire all you'll ever want from the friendpoint gacha. In the relatively short time I've been playing, I'm pretty sure I have every single 1-2* servant (and maybe all 3* ones) and every 1-2* servant is at level 3+ Noble Phantasm. And all the non-servants stuff is either completely useless 1-2* xp cards or 1-2* CEs (which are effectively lovely CE XP cards). I don't really feel that I would benefit much from being able to use the friendpoint gacha more frequently.

Speaking of 1*/2* XP cards, I kind of wish that they would stop mailing me a 1* XP card every single day. I just end up having to waste time using them (or just burning them) to keep my servant bank from filling up.

Man, that new 5* CE sounds like it blows (unless you're using a servant like Medea maybe). There's already a 5* that gives a 40% bonus to NPs, and if the battle is lasting long enough for you to really take advantage of the extra 20% on this new CE, that 500 HP per turn demerit is going to wreck you. I guess it could maybe be useful if you're grinding levels that you're pretty sure you can beat, but it sounds like a terrible idea for tackling difficult content.

Nah, even for Medea it sounds bad. Her NP really doesn't do that much damage, even to Assassins, with its main utility being the fact that it removes all their buffs when it hits(even Invulnerability!). I'd much rather not impinge on her survivability just to get a bit extra damage instead of more use of that utility.

I feel like it would be okay if this was a game where healing existed in any significant capacity, but as it is all fights boil down to a race to kill the enemies before they can fire off more than a couple Noble Phantasms (you might be able to make an exception to this with the right party involving a servant like Jeanne, but generally speaking it's true). 500 HP per turn is just brutal; if a fight lasts 10 turns (which is pretty normal for any sort of content that is around normal difficulty for your party), that's basically the same thing as having 5,000 less HP.

That being said, I'd like to equip that card onto an Arash with a level 5 NP just to see how much damage his suicide NP does with it.

The Red chest from Da Vinci's shop can be purchased for 10 mana prisms and contains 4 summoning tickets. The last ticket gave me Vlad. I can't wait to put back Kaleidoscope on him because of his level 2 NP :getin:

Edit:
I finally got up to +990 attack bonus from the Fou cards on Vlad. I have no clue who I want to buff up next since I use Ushiwakamaru, Zhuge Liang, EMIYA, and Elizabeth equally.
