That was fast.

I finished killing Heracles over and over again, with basically no effort, so why were the two shadow servants so hard to fight? I nearly lost against them, yet I had no trouble at all killing the masses of Heracles in the previous chapter.

On a semi-related note, do we ever get more chances at Saber Lily or is she forever doomed to be stuck with Caliburn at NP 1?

No, you get 5 more copies of her during the Saber Wars event. 4 to max her NP, one to burn.

Question, is it worth it to bother getting the trick or treat CEs? They might give a decent debuffer a bit more oomph, but I feel like the scales are probably a better use of candles. Maybe get one so that I have it on hand for gimmicky charm builds or the like, see if I have enough candles at the end for the rest? Probably going to convert bats to cakes eventually to get those items, so the drop boost isn't super useful to me.

Their bonus cupcake drops are useless, since it is more efficient to just convert from the other drops, so it depends on if you want it for it's regular skill. I would save them for last.

Do the guerilla quests keep spawning all throughout the event, or do they eventually stop appearing?

Cirnopedia says they show up every day, but the 31st doesn't have anything listed, so it might not show up on the last day.

By the way why does the op say this
cause I'm pretty sure that's not true

Level 90 and up only gives 2 levels per grail, so it takes 5 grails to go from 90 to 100.

Anything below that gives 5 levels per grail.

Yes! On the very last party quest (the one with Kintoki), Halloween Princess dropped! And I've finally gotten everything from the shop, including the exp, so now I am just finishing up the rest of the quests for the rewards.


Also, I managed to get every one of my servants to bond 5, so I am happy to see that the all of the Interludes are half off for the next week. I have a lot to get through.

Beat the boss rush with Altera, Kintoki, a support Waver, Halloween Liz, Caster Cu, and Kiyohime, in 46 turns.

I beat the Medea in 30 turns, but by then, my only survivors were Liz and Waver.

Tamamo refused to kill either of them, so I spent the next 16 turns hitting her with them until she finally got knocked down.

So since canonically summoning a servant a lot means they like you a lot, what should I do with my extra Kojiros? I have had him at NP5 for ages so I don't know how to deal with the additional ones without making him sad.

Feed him to another servant as experience. Selling a 1 star for QP is never worth it.

If you don't want him to be sad, feed him to a Saber.So he can fight a stronger swordfighter.

So it turns out that when you have a birthday, all of your servants get their birthday voiced line added automatically, without having to individually make them your favorite and poke them until they say it, to add to the voice collection. That's nice.

I beat Avici with Altera, Mary and Anne, support Jeanne, Gilgamesh, Lancer Eli, and Kintoki, in that order.

My initial line lasted until Nobu, with the two Giant Nobus, used her NP to take down the first three at once. With Gil and Eli, Nobu didn't last much longer. I lost Kintoki from either one of the Nobus or Okita, but by then Gil and Eli's NPs were charged up. After that, Okita only had about 4000 HP left, before she used her evasion move and killed Gil. I managed to take her down with Eli at around 300 HP. No command seals used.

I didn't count my turns used, but it was around 17-18.

So help me understand how the rate ups work. It sounds like the new banner changes the featured 5* each day, but on the last day all three are featured? Does this mean there's an greater chance of getting one of them on the last day, or would you have the same chance to roll [the feature] and then a 1/3 chance of getting either after that?

There is a flat 1% chance of rolling a 5* unit in each pull. The rate up only increases the chance that that if you pull a 5* unit, it would be the one featured, though you can still pull something that isn't featured. So on the last day, that 1% is split between the three characters. Therefore, it is harder to pull a specific character of the three, but you have the same chance of pulling one of the three as you do for any other time, still 1%.

So I have the birthday lines unlocked, but will servants actually say them in My Room?

Here's something amusing about the birthday lines: they will be added to the voice section when you have your birthday, and all servants that were released on or before your birthday will have them added, even if you get them after your birthday. Servants released after your birthday will not have them added, though.

Okay, Santa Alter is level 80 with the holy night CE. I'm ready for those friend points to start showing up.

I managed to take everything down before any of the enemies got their NPs off, yet still only had two characters surviving at the end (one was my level 90 with max Fou Altera, so it's not that surprising). I'm just going to farm the 40 ap instead. Besides, I need the Dragon scales.
