  1. 185 boxes here, I'm still lacking quite a few mats, especially lores, but after capping out my QP, then spending a bunch, then turning in more of the QP boxes, then spending more I've ended up with 844 million. Sad thing is that still isn't enough QP, I need would 600 million more just for the stuff I'm planning to level if I had the mats right now.

  2. I stand by my statement (that I may or may not have made) that Abby is overall the better servant. Hokusai shines when you build a team specifically around her specifically for spamming her NP against challenge quests with a bunch of different classes, but Abby will help out your team in just about any mission or team composition.

    By the way, thanks for the Astolfo with MLB event CE @Flutterz. It helps my farming. :wafuu:

    You're welcome, I've been doing uh, a little bit of farming myself.

    I want that Servant... though a lot of that is because I'm a Lovecraft fan, lol. 

    She great. She's cute, she's lovecraftian, she's actually good gameplay-wise... what's there not to like :sacchan:

    >nonchalantly translating its common route + the 2nd longest of the game alongside his thesis proposal and whatnot

    talk about making people (me included) feel like ass scratching monkeys...

    Obviously it mean that you didn't need to wait for 50,000 years in order to have Ginharu being translated, so good for you.

    Anyway you can just read the post at their blog (And Trip's blogpost in that it have pretty good summarization about his experience on translating Ginharu), but for the sake of completion I'll post the progress below and I'll try to summarize it.

    While it is impressive how fast they're going (though it should come as no surprise having seen how quickly they TL'd Hoshi Ori), I was just talking about the fact that they picked the 2 best girls to start off with. :makina:

    Hahaha, these guys are crazy. Turns out they've already translated one of these short routes. https://tsurezurescans.wordpress.com/

    This seems like an odd thing to say. Time is relative, but length is not. The routes in HoshiOri are on average shorter than Gin'iro Haruka's, I think. In fact, their update confirms that Bethly's route is a fair bit longer than Rikka's.

    Bethly route first followed immediately by Hinata? These guys really know what they're doing :sacchan:

  6. Well, now that it's Okita's rateup, I spent the rest of my quartz, and even bought one quartz pack. Ended up with Suzuka, Lanling, Nezha, 2 copies of Summer Lion King, and when I had 8 quartz I did a single pull + the free pull, and on the free pull I finally got Okita.

    So...no tituria and okita? How much SQ did you spend, flutz? :michiru: (At least you get penguin)

    I'm gonna roll later, wish me luck boiz :leecher:

    I had 690 quartz and I spent 420 of it, and all I got was a bunch of 5*s and 4*s I didn't want (except Mordred and Melt) :vinty:

  8. Welp, I didn't realize that Columbus' infinite unremovable guts weren't actually infinite and you just needed to kill him a couple of times, so...

    Wouldn't have taken me as long if the support Kama was my friend and I could use her NP

    Incidentally, is Tomoe Gozen a decent ST Archer?  I figured since I decided on Saberlot for the free SR, I might roll for her when Shimosa gets released...

    She's cute but in terms of gameplay she's pretty standard, nothing to write home about. She is buster though, so you can use her for Merlin shenanigans. I prefer Fujinon but I don't know when you guys will be getting the KnK rerun.

    I have a plethora of AOE Servants in all classes... I'm looking at the free four-star Servant in September and wondering which one I should get...  I'm currently wavering between Saberlot, Emiya Alter, and Tristan... I find that I already have all the other four-stars that serve a useful function that isn't already filled by someone else more powerful.  Any advice on which I should go for?  (I have Nerobride and FranSaber for ST Sabers, which is why I didn't automatically pick Saberlot, and I have no SR or SSR ST Archers, which is the primary reason why I'm considering the other two). 

    On another note... grailing.  I find I never consider using grails for practical reasons.  Instead, I inevitably use grails on Servants I love but have mediocre utility... anyone else experience this kind of behavior from yourself?

    Don't have Emiya Alter and never used Tristan, but Saberlot is an absolute crit beast and widely considered the best 4* Saber, if not the best 4* in general.

    As for grails, there's not much point in grailing for pure practicality. The benefits are generally very minor. It only makes sense to grail if you're going to be using that servant an absolute fuckton and you really want every bit of bonus damage on them, or if you just really like them. Sometimes you get lucky and you get both. That said there was 1 case where I grailed for practicality first and liking a servant second, it was Summer Mordred to 90. Not that I don't like her, but that alone wouldn't have gotten me to grail her as I'm very stingy. But it just so happened that with the setup I had with her for farming QP doors, sometimes she'd roll low damage and not get enough overkill hits to fully recharge her NP, and when I grailed her to 90 she had enough damage to ensure that she'd go back up to 100%, 100% of the time. Aside from her, I have Kiyolancer and Tamacat at 90, and Illya, Sitonai, and Abigail at 100 and 2000/2000, all primarily grailed for waifu reasons. Illya isn't very good outside of bursting down big assassins with a Merlin or two, Sitonai is pretty good in the usual situations where an Alter-Ego is good, and Abigail is far and away my most used servant because almost nothing counters her and she brings utility and damage to just about any team.

    About that, flutz. Why you're not rolling in the Knight classes, ruler etc banner? Abby's in there.

    Don't wanna lvl up her NP? :rimu:

    I already have her at NP2, and anything past NP2 is a marginal increase. Upgrading from NP1 to NP2 improves NPs by the same amount as upgrading from NP2 to NP5. Also the odds of getting exactly her are pretty low and I didn't really want anyone else in the knights gacha, meanwhile there were several servants I wanted in cavalry, namely Waver, Skadi, Arjuna Alter, and Illya. It's just simple maths. :makina:

    For those of you who play on the Japanese servers... is Dead Heat Summer Race as annoyingly grindy as the rumors say?

    Edit: Ugh, just looking at the event rewards... and other than my desire to collect Ishtar Rider, it doesn't look like there is anything that is worth hunting for, considering my current amount of ascension materials.  If there were more evil bones or void dust (which always seem to get used at ridiculous rates), I'd be willing to grind them, but there isn't...  I'll just get enough for the Divine wine and Black Beast grease, then ignore the event after... too much energy use, otherwise.

    The summer events are generally fairly grindy, because they tend to last longer than other events.

    I have Proto Arthur from the very first ten-roll I did... but tbh, I haven't leveled or maxed him, because Altria Alter was just better in terms of NP damage, even if he did better regular damage.  Also, evil Altria is hot.

    Anyway... does anyone else have a glut of SR and SSR Lancers?  Or is it just me?  I mean, it seems like if there is an option for a gold lancer to drop in a pickup summon, I get them.  Enkidu, Karna, Tamamo Lancer, Medusa Lancer, Elisabeth Bathory, Vlad III...  I'm a bit tired of Lancers.  I mean, sure, some of the best characters in both the anime and the game are Lancer class or have a Lancer class version, but still...  *sighs*  I just wanted a craft essence, and instead I got Tamamo, and it makes me feel weird to feel exasperation that I got a GSSR Servant. 

    Edit: That said, I want to  mofumofu that tail of hers... she'd make a great dakimakura.

    I have quite a bit more gold casters than any other class, but I do find a lot of lancers to be underwhelming. Between Tamamo for male enemies, Kiyohime for non-male enemies, and Karna for an AoE NP I have all my bases covered and don't use any of the other ones very much.
