Like with the Camelot prologue, Nasu posted details about Extella's backstory on his blog. This is the altered version of Extra that may or may not be covered by Last Encore.

EMIYA has such poo poo luck, it's amazing.

Emiya will forever spend his existence as a Heroic Spirit trying to protect and bring happiness to waifish teenage girls.

Just like he spent his own life as a person.

I am happy that Serenity got a Bond CE.

I am sad that its text is her admitting that she's still super depressed, even after joining up with Chaldea. :smith:

I am even more sad that it's just a loving party Quick buff!

So now that we're getting a free copy, how's Santa Alter as a servant?

5 stars level np damage with prana burst. Probably better than 5 stars Alex overall.

Wouldn't hurt to use the gold exp cards from this event to actually bring my own Jack to her final ascension. Well that and finally 5/5 Santa Saber as her NP is at 4/5 since last year.

V: My Jack's been sitting at 70/80 for a good long time now.

I had barely started saving up for the next good rate-up, but then Jack came along, and my measly 40 quartz weren't enough. Bad gacha

Oh jack's in the gacha right now? I'd really like a 5* Assassin, but I'm not throwing stuff at this gacha until Babylon.

I'm sad I didn't get Jack with the 3 10-rolls worth I had saved up (though obviously the chance of any 5-star servant is super low even with boost); when I use her as a support she seems to work really well with my Gilgamesh. I've had really poo poo luck in general with the gacha since coming back to the game. When I first came back I had a million crystals in my mail, and with those plus what I've gotten since I've probably done 9 or 10 10-rolls without getting a single 4 star servant. I think I used up all my F/GO luck when I got all those 5-star servants when I was first playing. I guess I shouldn't be greedy, since what I have is technically more than enough to tackle any content the game throws at me.

In other news, I just fully ascended Gilgamesh and Waver (apparently the latter is good now or something? I remember he used to be considered bad, but now all his skills gives NP)! Now I just need to get Artoria, Jeanne, and Vlad's final ascensions (and maybe at some point after that I'll consider focusing on Martha/Siegfried/Stheno/EMIYA/Atalanta/Elizabeth, though I've been holding off in case I end up lucking into a 5-star from some of those classes). Ascension actually seems relatively easy to gather the mats for, with skill upgrades being the bigger problem.

Getting all important mats/items from this event seems easier than past events. I wish it gave Saber statues, though, since I still need a bunch to get Arthoria's final ascension.

Waver got the most ridiculous buff in the game.

It wasn't until very recently that DW gave someone anything similar, and Emiya's Hawkeye skill requires you to fully ascend him, do both strengthening quests, and then spend a ton of resources to level up the skill before it really gets ridiculous.

So, is it me or is David actually good? A party-wide one-hit dodge + heal skill seems really good to me.

Also I still need a fuckton of Black Tallows to Ascend mah boy Angra. :argh:

I've got four buckets of fried chicken waiting for Santa and I've already emptied three present box. I'm ready for my welfare.

I'll also probably be ready to face Camelot after the event, with the insane amount of ascension mats and xp cards I got (Angra still stuck at 35 :( )

I just recently started a new account, since my old one was getting a bit stale. Turns out farming is hard if you only have lovely lvl30 servants. Maybe someone here still has a few spots on his friend list open? Preferably with Santa Alter and the event CE, but at this point I take anything with a NP.

Thanks! This game is kinda more fun if you don't use some op 5-star all the time, I think, but this event with only a few days left forces my hand :(
Trying my hand at an account that consists only of free servants and friend point pulls.
