The part that Nyaa isn't mentioning is that the receiving card also gets all the experience that was put into the source card, in addition to the dumb 1000+10*(lv-1) thing. So if you feed a level 50 to a level 1 the result will be level 50 with a bit of extra exp.

edit: Note that Great and Super successes don't multiply that accumulated experience, though - they only multiply the 1000+10*(lv-1) part.

OK, that makes more sense. You're never losing anything if you do it in reverse, then. Other than maybe hitting a level cap eventually.

I actually pulled Gil on my first reroll but everything else about the pull was horrible.

Im keeping the code and seeing if the next few ones come up with some better stuff in it.

EMIYA has the twin bonuses of being strong lategame thanks to buffing quests they give him, and for being one of, if not the, most common starring Servant in an event, which means they give him a power boost or increased drop rates whenever he's in your party. In addition, most people stop using Carmilla once RyougiShiki comes out, while Liz just doesn't bring much to the table besides a buffed up Charisma for girls and isn't exactly the best pick for a support character.

Liz isn't the hottest lancer, but she's one of the only ones we get that's worth using, basically forever. I don't think we even got a 5 star lancer for months and months after launch, much less a second four star.

Hell, I still use Liz on my JP account, and even limit broke her to 90 there.

I don't think you're eligible for the free 4-star pick if you reroll now, so that's something to into consideration if it matters to you.

gil is great. his np does kinda eh damage but otherwise he's stupid good, and he'll get an interlude that upgrades his np damage to insane levels.

some are just plot. you can tell which is is which by the icon next to the quest, the ones that boost their np will have a gold coin with a sword in the middle while ones that are just story will just have quartz. The coin without a sword means it boosts a skill or gives them a new one.

Hello thread, I am here to ask if there is any point to keeping dupes of 4* or 5* servents outside of weird otaku obession? Or just feed any I've got to the version of the card I've developed to buff their NP?

Also blew all the stones I saved up on Gil's gacha, all the 5*s I got were CE. Rip

As a longtime owner of Gil on JP, I will tell you that while he is good, he can often seem underwhelming.

Because his attacks hit so many times and so fast, you don't get as much of a sense when he's hitting really hard as you do when another servant does a single buster attack for 12k, for example.

Also, before his NP is strengthened in his second interlude (requiring you to clear London first, two areas after Rome) it honestly kinda hits like a limp noodle. Especially if you're not fighting servants.

If you have dupes of a servant you will use, lock one, and feed the rest to the to buff their NP. I don't think there's any point in using and developing more than one copy of the same servant.

Leveling up NPs is good.

If you have enough dupes that you have spares even after leveling to NP5, you should probably burn them in the store. You can get Mana Prisms for 3*, rare prisms for 4*, and (I think) Unregistered Spirit Origins for 5* (but only if you have 5 copies already? I dunno how it works, I've never gotten one)

Mana Prisms are good because every month you can buy a pack of tickets, xp cards, and fou cards, and sometimes an expensive CE.
Rare prisms have even better rewards.
Unregistered Spirit Origins require you to have a bunch of copies of the same 5* servant to get, and then you need a bunch of them to buy another 5* servant. If you have any of them you should honestly put your phone down and think about what you did, because it's a feature intended for the craziest of whales.
