Fate/Grand Order

Camelot comes out in July.

Other updates around that time include: telling you which of your support Servants is most used, naming parties, being able to look at a friend's entire support Servant roster, fixing the bug with enemies not attacking after taunting Servant dies, etc.

Guess that means either it's swimsuit event, half AP for whatever, Servant Strengthening Quests 3, more Bond 10 CEs or Prisma Ilya collab after the Journey to the West event ends next week.

Oh huh, the 1 year anniversary is going to be after Camelot's release, welp the celebration for that can't get worse then the 300 day anniversary celebration.

I expect the team naming to get rather cheeky.

Actually it doesn't say late July, it says somewhen between the 1st and the 20th.

I expect a lot of teams will be named "FUCK YOU DW". It's amazing the number of 'FUCK YOU DW' accounts I've run into.

Kinda curious if the Swimsuit Grail War will have all the Classes,or just the 3 we know.

Saber someone for breaking the watermelon open?

Four fangs, a scale and an Ox King CE from a single 140 run. They seem to be taking the place of the lotus drops though.

I'm hating this second part of the event. The fight is significantly more difficult for me than farming India.

The Scathach fight isn't that bad. I just unload support Clarent and Cu Alter NP on Scathach and she either dies or is left below 10k. It's Lancer Alter who I hate to go up against now. Sure, I could take support Mordred there too, but she doesn't have the Nightingale CE and I don't want to put one on Cu Alter.

But yeah, mostly sucks. At least I got all my plumes. Still need to clear out the crystals. Tallow and horns are largely useless right now so I might just spend the rest of the event farming cash if I get the rest of what I need.

Crosspost from the general Type-MOON thread:

Is there a guide for this event? I need more tags and want stuff from the shop but I already did all of the quests that give you tags and now they're only giving me orb quests. Do I just have to do the other event quests I can do infinitely (provided I have the AP) and just pray I get the tags? I've only done the first two of the main quests.

Also, I spent some Mana Prisms I got from doing dalies on those golden tickets and managed to pull Li Shuwen. Fuck yeah.

Also also, I'm starting to suspect that Euryale is a really shitty Servant and am probably going to replace her

Whatever the last available quest is that gives Talismans is the best one. Spam that one until you can beat up Karna and Arjuna in the India quest unlocked by beating the story, then repeat ad nauseam.

Euryale is decent against Males and basically useless against everything else. To give you an idea, her NP multiplier is 1200% at all levels. By contrast, NP 5 Robin has 1500% NP multiplier and his +250% damage triggers against everything because his poison is guaranteed and goes off before the damage is applied.

As for skills, both Euryale and Robin have a debuff and a NP charge skill. Euryale's Blood Suck is sometimes more useful than Robin's Golden Rule, but the fact that her charm only works on Males doesn't really match up to the universal usefulness of Sabotage.

In passives she's better in every way - she has better MR and Independant Action and Divine Goddess Core EX to go along with it, giving her a base 50% chance to resist debuffs (that's huge), but it ultimately comes down to which of them can kill the enemy before it can kill them, and Robin just blows her out of the water when it comes down to that.

Plus Robin might be sort of an ass at times but he's a good guy, deep down, while I'm certain Euryale just wants to see her master suffer (or at least, her character bio tells you as such). Also she's got the personality of a spoiled brat. That doesn't exactly help the situation.

So yeah, Robin all the way.

Also I'm legitimately having trouble believing that someone is unable to figure out how this event works. The Zero Order event, I get, because if you can't read moonrunes you wouldn't know that you needed the items in the shop to open up new stages, but this one is very straightforward. Hell, there's a quest that literally gives only talismans (and occasionally CE).

The only reason I'm having "trouble" is because I did all of those quests and they're not coming up again. Given that there's talk of completing story missions may mean that the fact that I'm still in fucking France may have something to do with it.

No. Not in this event.

'Story' refers to the blue quests that give out quartz for rewards that you need to use talismans to try.

Do you mean the once a day one ap quests against doors?

Nope, those are dailies. They neither take talismans to fight nor do they give out Quartz for victory.

I was talking to Zelenal. Those are the only non story quests that go away after you do them, aren't they?

Yes, those were the ones I was talking about. I asked if I just had to do the repeatable ones and hope for the drops (I don't recall getting any when I ran the last three) but no one said anything.

Yes, you can only do those quests once. You have to do the repeatables for the rest. The 40 AP quest with wyverns, a dragon and Nightingale is the most efficient because it's pure talismans, after which you can do the 100 AP talisman quest with Arjuna and Karna, assuming you've completed the story mode.

Edit: It's also more best to grab the shop C Es before anything else but if you're just getting started it's probably too late to matter.

Well, I don't even have 100 AP so I could never do that quest anyway. My only intention here was to just get more Four Star All EXP cards for leveling my Servants along with whatever other goodies I happened to get. Now that I can play the game more reliably, I'll probably actually progress in the main story and actually bother with the next event from the start.

I don't think there are any quests that cost more than 40 AP. One quest that costs 40 AP gives you a bunch of talismans and you can use those to do a quest that requires a hundred talismans.

Although if you're only in France you probably don't have any Servants strong enough to really do much, I think?

Most of my Servants are around Level 40 and my strongest is Saber Shiki who's Level 50.

Yeah if I were you I'd just focus on getting through the story. The even is almost over and you won't be able to do the more efficient quests.

Aight. At least I got Li Shuwen out of it.
