Nero is by far my favorite Saber and yes, she does still come off over-the-top as she should. But some of her reactions and the way they wrote her dialogue just feels...lacking? She was fantastic in Extella when Marvelous handled her. Maybe I'm just jaded, but when Nero straight up says "Gotcha!" I got a little upset.

If that's the best we can claim then we're really digging. lol

It was a joke about the MEA thing, I do think FGO is one of the most enjoyable mobile games and really, I agree with Something Awful poster Nyaa. Some of the out of nowhere translations are pretty fun and some made me laugh, not for bad reasons.

Extella is very good... the fact it runs that freaking well on the Vita just makes me happy.

Clearly the best written character in Rome IS CALIGULA. (You'll have to imagine that three inches high.)

How far out is it until the MC gets new Mystic Codes?

Fair warning, Extella has really boring, drawn-out, monotonous gameplay, and the story is very phoned in, so enjoying it might be a difficult feat

Extella got one thing right, and that was killing thousands of mooks per stage. Shame about literally everything else.

I can't complain too much because I only paid $20 but man was Extella super disappointing coming off of dragon quest heroes and hyrule warriors.

DQ Heroes II felt like such a slog. It was so goddamn slow. Hyrule was good though.

Honestly, they didn't even do that right, since killing said thousands of mooks boils down to pressing O, watching the unskippable cutscene for your extella maneuver, and then pressing O again, watching the cutscene again, etc

It's not. You can tell because it's bad.

not that every Warriors game is a winner but there's a level of offness to Extella's gameplay that you don't get from an Omega Force joint

You mustn't have been made by Tecmo Koei either, then.


On topic: did anyone manage to farm Reverse Dragon wings for ascensions? They seem to really not want to drop from any dragon in Orleans. Only got 1 through the story.

It's not really bad but it does feel very bare bones. If you're not going into it to listen to Nero and Caster go on about their Master, then there's not a big draw I don't feel.

I don't think there are any dragons in free quests? The only dragon is in story quests and it's a guaranteed drop, yeah. You want friday's 30AP monster hunt. The final wave is either a demon or a dragon, presumably 50% chance of either, and a guaranteed chest. The chest could contain either a magic gem, secret gem or the dragon scale, more likely the former than the latter.

How do rate ups work in F/GO? Is it still a 1% chance to get a 5* but if that 1% is rolled there is an increased chance that it is the rate up character? Or is that 1% chance itself increased?

Makes sense. I know it's a very low drop rate even if it spawns but Vlad gets a lot of stats with the next ascension so it'd be pretty great. I'll be productive at work Friday :)

Still a 1% chance to get a 5*, but if you do there's anecdotally a 70% chance it'll be a rate-up 5*.

The former, if you do roll the 1% for a 5* a rated up servant is I think, 60% likely to be drawn, while every other in the pool shares the other 40%.

Best case scenario you don't really care for him and get him on 1st 10 roll. Worst case, you don't care for him, roll for him, don't get him and then JAlter gacha comes out next month.

Extella is an okay warriors game that makes a fatal mistake in making a system mechanic far stronger than anything unique a character can do, that being extella maneuver. If they make a sequel I hope they don't tune the game around that mechanic because it was pretty clearly designed around shotgunning everything down with it which made running around being a warriors character largely worthless after the first extella lol

Still if tamamo, nero or altera are your anime wife then you could do worse. I hope they put titan into FGO and have her battle sprite just be a foot.

go through the story, you fight a lot of shadow servants during the story and it drops off them. masilla in rome and charlotte in america also have good drop rates for items, and rome isn't *too* far in.
