Also Sun and Sad knights, Liz's cool uncle(berserker ver.), Beobro, and Finally My First Kscope, all made appearances before Arthur popped up.

That's it! No more hiding in tomato crates! It's time to show that idiota Germany how a real nation fights!

For pasta~! CHARGE!

Oh, right, what's the history between Arash and Proto Arthur? Arash summoned as the archer instead of EMIYA in that instance of the war?

What a childish tactic!
Don't you think you should put more thought into your battleplan?!


They teamed up in Prototype Fragments to stop an insane Brynhildr and also to defeat Ozy’s invincible temple/pyramid. This is also why Ozy is a total Arash fanboy.

Prototype Fragments HGW:

Saber: Arthur Pendragon
Lancer: Brynhildr
Archer: Arash the Archer
Rider: Ozymandias
Caster: Paracelsus
Assassin: Old Man of the Mountain (Serenity)
Berserker: Jekyll & Hyde

Used far more sq than I wanted. Got D'eon, Lobo, saber Lancelot, Emiya alter, Edison, Yan x2 and Herc.

Pulled Enkidu, got pissed off and grabbed 90sq from fragments and then this:



That was 540sq used and the most I've ever used. The other times I've pulled have been under 200sq.

This brings back memories of when I got dual Arthur Prototypes in one 10-roll on my JP account back when he was first released.

I wanted Amakusa from this one. Instead I got...uh, Karna *and* Tesla, which I guess is a fine trade-off since I needed a good lancer and archer anyways (previously I had nothing above 3* for both those classes). They're also both servants I never got on my JP account (which is also why I wanted Amakusa; I'm trying to focus on servants I've never gotten to play with).

I threw 17 tickets at the Amakusa banner and got him plus two more copies of Bedivere (NP4 now). Can't complain about that.

Cool art aside, why were you aiming for the Versus? Is it good for some specific things? I have already the CE from the recent-ish event that gives +30% (limit broken) against Divine servants without the turn limitation (plus +50% NP charge to boot IIRC).

In my quest for NP5 astolfo I ended up rolling an Arjuna, and then in the very next 10 roll I got a Karna.

I'm not saying they're catalysts for each other but... That's exactly what I'm saying.

i was torn between Versus and Teacher for the free rerun CEs and figured if i got one from rolling then it would seal my decision. the 3t limitation on Versus shouldn't be that big of a deal depending on how your team is set up, and you can always just command seal for instant NPs anyway, or use crits on brave chains. the full 50% additional damage plus 40% defense against Divine does give it an edge over the recent event CE, if you're looking purely to burn bright and fast against Divine enemies.

e: all that said, if you have even a single Black Grail it will do as much for you without putting an expiration on your huge damage numbers and it isn't confined to a niche. also if you expect a fight to go long at all then Versus isn't the pick unless you're bringing that dps in for cleanup duty at the end.

Did a 10-pull on the anniversary banner since I have more than enough AOE Buster Sabers (Original Recipe Artoria is still the best, I don't care about your ~tiers~) and having Astolfo would be fun. Got a ton of new CEs and Amakusa showed up for some reason. The anti-desire sensor is real.

Your gacha-bragging struck a nerve and accidentally set off my self-defense instincts. Sorry about that.
Perfect beautiful husband man showed up after 17 tickets and 60 quartz and I still have plenty left over for a try at Waver and Cuzilla later. :dance:

I know gacha is bad civilization, but I'm a little annoyed that 17 tickets and roughly 80 quartz (I rolled some more after Arthur just to show who else would show up) only summoned two gold Servants. After about thirty quartz I got a silver Saber card that sparked gold...and it turned out to be NP 2 Saberlot, which, great, but also led to yelling.

I also got about fifty copies of the Merlin CE, slightly fewer of the Neverland one, a copy of Hot Sands, Cafe Camelot, the Fionn and Diarmuid one, NP 2 Bedi, and about ten copies of Saber Giles who would not stop showing up, what the hell, I don't even have Jeanne, go away!

This mini event reminded me that i knew absolutely nothing about Fate/prototype other than King Arthur is a boy and that weird Cu i've never used came from it.


Now, after some wiki-poking and ova-watching i've decided that Arthur is cool and good and maybe i'll do a 10 pull on this banner after all...

lol

If you rolled a 5* and 4* from the equivalent of about 4-5 10-rolls, that's damned good luck. Not amazing, but a bit better than average (I think that someone should normally average a 5* every ten 10-pulls or so). If it was two 4*, I'd say that's about average for that many rolls.

Also Saberlot is great and my favorite servant, so NP2-ing him is good.

I had to reroll over 30 times to get Merlin in JP so that counts as 1800+ theoretical SQ.

Who would voice such a character? Would they go for Suzumura, since he's Sakamoto's "counterpart", in a sense?
