Looking up Gil's sprites/portraits, it's a loving crime that his final outfit isn't his biker jacket from UBW/HF.

Wouldn't surprise me if they add it eventually, now that costume switches are a thing in the JP version.

On the fashionable subject of ascension resources someone on Reddit has put together a convenient summary of which resources are available in each of the next few events, and how many. Worth a look if you're curious how many months it will be until you get enough stuff to ascend your Casters.

Which events were the best events, in senior players' opinion? The criteria can be anything you like, from mats, to sheer fun factor, story, etc.

Kara no Kyoukai is an incredibly fun event. Farming was pretty easy for me, and it offers one of the best welfare servants. Music was good too. Da Vinci's is a favorite of mine just because of the servant it offers and its story. Jeanne Alter turns herself into an otome game protagonist

How soon will enemies start dropping Caster materials (forbidden pages, homonculi) so I can make my Hans and Waver even more powerful.

According to wiki forbidden pages will have one source in okeanus, gears and homonculi won't be in until London. Unless they give us the improved dailies before London then it's going to be a while.

The Forbidden Page source in Okeanos is Edward Teach's Interlude, so you can't farm it; you might get one or two there, but that's it. Events are going to be the only real source of any of them until London comes out.

Hopefully I roll some other things to upgrade with existing mats.

Assuming they don't mess with the numbers for the US version there should be exactly 15 Forbidden Pages available during the upcoming Nero Festival, which I believe is enough to fully ascend any one servant that uses them.

That said I would super not worry about Vlad's 4th ascension unless you're really a stickler for maximizing because he gets like 300 stats total in the last 10 levels.

Units that use Forbidden Pages for Ascension/Skill-Ups respectively. If you ascend Waver with pages (10) you have enough left for Shakespeare or Hans. Otherwise you can do like Vlad 3rd Ascension (5) and that's exactly 15. So yea depends on what you want but I guess it's time to plan on how to use them wisely for now.

NRVNQSR posted:It is very tempting to hoard them for the Tamamo I'm not going to be able to pull. I was just thinking that. Vlad is at a point he's not super squishy anymore so ascending Tamamo - assuming good rolls - is probably what I'll be doing too.

If that's accurate and there's a thing with ghost lanterns coming somewhat soon perhaps I won't chew my arm off after mindlessly repeatedly doing Mt Etna after all. I've gotten two, just enough to show me they do exist and fool me into thinking it might not be so bad after all. Maybe I'm not cut out for the gatcha life.

You'll never be able to field a full team of all golds because the master level caps before that. That said, I'm at level 77 and I've not felt like my front line decisions have been particularly restricted for a while. Occasionally I'll have to drop one of my back line silvers if I get greedy. I'm running with a front-line friend support which helps a lot.

With max level in the US game atm, you can field at most either 5 five stars with 2 five star CEs and have seven AP left or 5 five star CEs and 3 five star servants and have 3 AP left.

Over the course of the last week I managed to grind out Bourduex enough to get the Ygg seeds for d'Eon's third ascension. The Thursday daily allowed me to grab the final three Phoenix Plumes I needed. The result? My first card to hit 3rd ascension!  Feels pretty good.Now to grind out another 5 phoenix plumes and add another 8 serpent eyes to the pile of things I need to grind.

Gologle posted:Which events were the best events, in senior players' opinion? The criteria can be anything you like, from mats, to sheer fun factor, story, etc. Zero was probably my favorite. The premise of Waver going Back To The Future was fun, you got the emotional beats of him reuniting with Rider, and stuff like teaming up with Kariya to burn down the Matou mansion and the big basement right in front of Zouken Second half after you beat the main story was kinda dumb though. The summer event (which is being rerun on JP right now) is also good. You're stuck on a deserted island with like your entire servant team and have to gather resources to build stuff. There's lots of comedy, and it's one of the few places where you get to see Arturia and Mordred playing off of each other. The grinding for mats is kind of monotonous though. I hear CCC was good also, but I never played the original game and was too busy to take part in the FGO event so all I know is that it added two new classes and made the Rock Paper Scissors triangles even more complicated.

My favorite events was Christmas with Santa Alter , Kara no Kyoukai, Summer, and CCC. Fate/Zero wasn't too bad except for the last third of the event which felt slapped on, and Prisma Illya was fun in its own way because all the female servants got a boost and that meant Mash's Buster move was pretty devastating.

Airspace posted:I want to think about it, even though I feel like that's only going to lead to pain. But I have a slightly different question. It's occasionally translated as 'four horseman', which is probably some parallel to the horseman of the apocalypse. Assassins easily represent death, but the other three are open for a bit more interpretation. War for Berserker, Famine for Casters (since casters tend to employ bounded fields), and Riders for Conquest.

I probably should just throw any exp I have laying around at the lower-stars, shouldn't I, seeing how I probably won't have enough materials for the units I actually care about anytime soon?

Pureauthor posted:Can someone explain to me if there's any logic behind the Cavalry triangle? Because just intuitively it makes more sense to me that Casters can fire big fuckoff nuke spells that destroy Riders' mounts but would get wrecked by an Assassin sneaking up and sticking a knife in their backs before they can prepare a spell. Riders have high magic resistance, IIRC, like better than most knight classes. But they don't have good defenses against a knife to the ribs.
