Different Mystic Codes are available already? Where do I get em?

If you did the extra Quest they gave you during the Extella promo, you'd get a Mystic Code as a reward.

... I'm pretty sure the promotion has ended by now though.

I don't think they'll repeat the event, but you'll probably be able to unlock it with rare mana prisms eventually?

edit: Or possibly not, since I don't see it in the Japanese shop. I guess it might return for a future Last Order event or something like that.

Had Nero down to 1k hp with one def buff up, after using Medea on her when she had three up, after using Nullify Buff, three units left on my side.

Nero uses Imperial Privilege, Imperial Privilege, Migraine on her turn, shrugs off a Herc battle chain for like 1k, and nukes the room.

I STILL farm this poo poo because I am stupid, stubborn mule, but I manage to clear it like 6 times out of 10 tries. It is nowhere near viable, because there is ridiculous amount of things that can go wrong and completely screw you over .

The real life person was likely trans female, but servants can be summoned as a different sex than in real life, like Da Vinci, so that might not be a case in this game.

I thought Da Vinci is and was summoned as a man, but just decided to use his Caster powers to turn himself into his ideal vision of beauty, the Mona Lisa.

Around 800 AP down and not a single serpent jewel drop. This is really ridiculous. I'm getting way fed up with this.
I just need one and then all I need is a few archer monuments to get my Gil to 3rd ascension.

About 600 here and none either. Drop rates are pretty great.

I just ran my 27th run of 10Ap and got 1 fang :toot: 3 more for Martha's Ascension. Shouldn't take more than a week.

Outside of events are drop-rates always going to be like this or will new storylines and dailies later on provide some better sources? Some of these percentages are very frustrating.

Comparing the JP and NA tabs on the gathering guide, yeah, there are way better story and daily missions for farming in the future. Between those and events you probably shouldn't tear your hair out going for super-rare mats unless there's just one servant you really want to ascend right this moment.

What do you mean by Affinity? If you're asking about 'performance' increase its both, if you're talking about say, the first card bonus on the cards after it, only NP gain.

Servants are a mix of the original person and the myth they left behind. Since D'eon's gender being a mystery is part of the legend, he can change gender at will as a side effect of one of his skills.

This is why Elizabeth Bathory is a dumb lizard and/or a vampire dominatrix, the legend has so overpowered the historical person that it's hard to summon her as she was in life.

The hilarious part is, the "trial quest" (basically a little, dedicated side story to go along with a new 5*'s release outside of a major story update that lets you try them out in a fight) for Holmes addresses this idea directly. Previous Fate works have also obliquely addressed the idea.

I meant to type ability, but yeah it is performance I was wondering about. Sorry for the confusion and thank you. And I guess the Quick one then increases star gain?

Yes. Performance boosts improve every aspect of that card type.

I think the answer is that these materials will become common, but new servants will need new materials which are rare again.

(Whatever) Card Performance always increases damage, NP gain and star gain for cards of that type. Since quick cards do all three of those things all three get boosted.

It overall gets better (and later events provide more resources), but for a while certain things will be damnably rare. Prepare to hate dragon scales, dragon teeth and demon hearts.
