Apparently Euryale isn't actually in the game yet? I guess she'll be added for Okeanos.

Yeah she is. Idk why she's listed with the other 59 servants, because she's the only one of them who isn't in the game right now.

Gil basically does everything Attila or Arthuria do at their very best. Only he doesn't need to use any of his skills to do so. And his actual skills and passive and attack patterns allow him to be more than a wet noodle in between NP bursts, which also come much more frequent thanks to far more crits and base NP generation.
It doesn't help that there are dozens of Arthurias and Attilas out there. Like 90% of the knight class 5*s have that BBAAQ setup with buster NP and a short damage boost and all of them are mediocre, unless they do amazing poo poo outside of that burst, like Gil (or later Drake)

Yes. If you use the "Issue Transfer Code" option first you can even go back to earlier rolls, or give them to other people.

Technically there's a slightly faster reroll method if you have two devices but it saves like two minutes on a half hour reroll so it's not really worth the hassle.

Don't like it? well...

Is if just me or does the Random EXP daily give out worse rewards.

Like I get mostly 4 stars with a few 3 stars from the 30 AP daily, except for the Random daily which gives me mostly three stars, a couple 4 stars and once a 2 star.

Mostly 4 stars from the 30AP daily is not normal; if it were there wouldn't be a much reason to have a 40AP daily. I typically see ~3 4*s and ~6 3*s from the 30AP daily? 2*s definitely can drop in it, though. I don't think the All Classes one is any different, but I haven't really run it much to find out.

Gonna re-roll then. I already cleared Fuyuki, but I got some disappointing pulls from the gacha (including my guaranteed 4* being Marie Antoinette...).

Not that it's relevant anymore, but I thought he was also considered good before they reworked how crit stars were generated. When he was first released, he was the best crit star generator in the game, but they nerfed how many stars Buster and Arts cards generated and buffed Quick. I think they also tweeked how many stars you could generate off of overkill, so Gil bullying an already dead opponent to generate 20-30 stars is no longer a thing. I guess he was bad for like 3 months and top tier for the rest of the life of the game.

He might've been but the game was so weird and new by the time he was dropped that people were still figuring poo poo out and he hit stuff the hardest of anyone in the game at that point that he would've been considered good off of that alone.

It looks like according to the wikia, Rome really only provides pieces for Berserkers, a saber, and a rider. I need 3 of caster/lancer/rider/Archer. Pretty much my only choice is to hope for updates in the 30ap daily, right? The two days I've done it was Carmilla both times at the end, has anyone else gotten anyone else?

Technically all of those are farmable in free quests in Orleans, but yes, if you want that many different ones I suspect the 30AP daily Duels are going to be your best bet. I've seen Saber Lily and Cu in the knights one and Marie and Carmilla in the horsemen one so I think they're working as intended.

No, you want the 30AP daily. The 20AP is a scam since it basically has the same drop chances as the 10AP but the 30AP guarantees a drop in wave 3. Knights is the other duel daily that has saber/lancer/archer/berserker pieces instead of rider/assassin/caster/berserker pieces.

Who you get in the final stage is going to be RNG no matter what and for me that RNG has been berserker basically every time. But, at this stage of the game you just want pieces/monuments in general so anything is fine. For instance, in order to see all of the berserker interludes you'd need 22 or so berserker pieces as they're the most common class at the start. For this type of game you really need to get into the mindset of "everything in time" since nothing is going to be instant gratification unless you buy quartz and use them to restore AP or something else very silly.

When people say that "we have the bad quests" or "these quests are bad" they're comparing to what Japan eventually got several months after release. Those quests are better for specific things which makes a ton more sense when you'd only be needing them for new servant releases, for the most part. It'll be several months before content that wants anything beyond 1st ascension so may as well invest in getting everybody there for interludes and not worry about 2nd or 3rd beyond events unlocking more materials/better farms. You could farm free quests for specifics but the drop rates are going to be terrible to the point that you could spend hundreds of AP and end up with nothing compared to spending 30AP to always get something that you will need for something, eventually. And, eventually, you would get what you want.

Yeah, for Jeanne you absolutely want to be doing the 30AP piece/monument quest since you'll also want 5 of every monument which absolutely have the best rates from the 3rd wave on those quests. Jeanne is one of the few servants you technically could 4th ascend before any events.

Even bad servants can be useful. I'm on mobile so I don't have it handy, but there's a video out there of someone taking on a male event boss (I think it was Edmund Dantes?) with more than 500k hp using a team of just Stheno, Euryale, and a support Euryale. They charmed/stunned the boss every turn for like 20 turns and killed him without him ever getting to act.

While many people get though tough content by overpowering it with stats, you can do an awful lot with good teamcomp, even with one star servants.

Could at least flip one or two, maybe.
my main starter was stheno who's whatev I guess I mean she doesn't shine against all these skeletons I guess I just pressed the beserker on the friends list and snoozed through the prologue

then I realized I had enough for two ten pulls and got 5* saber lily and ruler jeane (also how to level)

did I luck out or are they garbo

Ruler Jeanne, 5* Saber are both very good. Jeanne is one of the best starter rolls and she starts off powerful unlike some of the other 4-5*.

I remember that :) I'm fine tbh, Vlad is destroying everything for now with a jeanne/vlad/herc support friend. I just could have been better :p On the CE front I'm pretty drat lucky though so can't complain. I have 25% boosters for Art/Buster/Quick/ 60-80% NP starters, Def boosters, etc...
