are you daring to insinuate that they should sully saberfaces by making them filthy 3*?

I really should be working on getting more bronze/silver Servants to max ascension since I've nearly got all my gold Servants max levelled so I can do their strengthening quests but ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh do i really want to put that much effort for dumping exp into servants who aren't euryale/ushi/medea

Well... To be frank, I don't think a single Quartz for each is worth that much effort unless you're really desperate. Do free quests, if you can, otherwise... eh, it's up to you whether you think it's worth the effort or not.

Gacha-wise though, it's really annoying.

Then again, DW is intent on keeping that super bad rate.

Even just doubling the rate (so we get 2% 5 star and 6% 4 star) would make the gacha much more bearable, and the whole 'but people will pay less!' thing is mitigated by the fact that no, people won't pay less because you can just release another waifu.

Combined with the existence of CE, you only have half a percent chance of getting a 5star servant.

At least Angra Mainyu is explicitly the gacha equivalent of getting hit by lightning, with a percentage in the ten-thousandths of a percent. You KNOW it's fruitless to hope to get one.

Also, what would you rather have: a CE that reduced cooldown time, or increased skill duration by 1?

Of course, I actually do have Angry Man Jew.

Anyway, no, SCM, it's not half a percent. It's not divided by half. It's 40% silver CE, 40% silver servant, 12% 4 star CE, 4% 5 star CE, 3% 4 star servant and 1% 5 star servant, for a total of 100%.

Of course, I have the slightest inkling that it rolls in exactly that order, which makes the actual % chance of rolling a 5 star even more minuscule. And of course, it defaults to a Silver CE if it doesn't roll anything else, because fuck this gacha. It'd explain why I rolled an entire Quartz Account and got all of three gold servants, all of which were 4 star, even though the laws of probability mean that such a thing is pretty fucking unlikely.

And SCM, both of those CE effects would be absurd, completely fucking ludicrous beyond belief and completely useless for some skills all rolled in one. Those two will never exist in CE form because where they would be useful they would be obscenely OP. Also they're not in the list of skill effects that Kyte datamined.

(Interestingly, Drop Rate is in that list)

you'll probably have to wait three months for the next mana prism shop CE, or the next three months after that

The Da Vinci event CE was a 2% drop rate limit broken to 10%, I think. So it's been and gone.

No, that was QP.

Kyte's notes had both the Mona Lisa's extra QP and another Drop Rate property.

It's likely that it applies to materials and stuff or it's an unused property prepared for an event.

Wow, thanks Scathach.

You wouldn't give me the friendship of your Tits 'N Tights, but Angra's a decent enough substitute. Finally, I have all of the 0 through 3-stars.

Now if only Herk would show up at some point...

New event! Onigashima this time, and it's got a welfare Rider. It's Kintoki wearing a biker costume. Ready all your japanese servants, they're the stars of the day (including Emiyas and Shikis).

I can't help but notice that doesn't involve swimsuits, though.

I guess this is Japan Event.

Mostly because it gets bonus from the Japanese servants. Even though it shouldn't get any from Tamamo because she's a chunk of the sun and not actually Japanese, but whatever, I'll accept it.

Also, given that he's 4 star, Kintoki is very likely to be Welfare.

I like how of all the scrapped Apocrypha Servants, Kintoki gets the most attention.

I wonder what that HP bar above Gudao's level means...

Kintoki's got everything going for him. He's a really lovable character all around, one of Japan's biggest folk heroes, for a long time he was the best servant in the entire game, and his waifu is one of the most popular GO originals (as far as fanart goes, anyway). Meanwhile David tends to be fucking hilarious but is blander in design, and Benkei looks kinda cool and has a pretty interesting backstory but is otherwise really boring.

And that just looks like they brought back BP from Ibaraki's event.

[up][up][up]That's BP from Ibaraki's event, you spend it (not AP) to do missions and it recharges at a rate of 1 per hour. At least we're getting 8 this time rather than needing to fuck our sleep schedules to get optimum use of 6bp.

I just don't get the idea behind 'Benkei'. Why add in some random guy that pretends to be him instead of the actual Benkei that people might care about?
