Fate/Grand Order

@Arha

And the fact that Casters, for a long time, did nothing but support is the reason why there was a time when we dreaded assassin bosses, which we now throw Support Sanzou at. Back then, you had to hope against hope that you could find a friend with a maxed out Nursery Rhyme.

If it's the worst case scenario, just use three Command Seals on Orion Support to use their NP every turn. Fortunately, the decisive match with Gawain is much easier since he doesn't have the defense boost.

(Euryale killed him in 1 shot, by the by)

His fault for trying to challenge us indoors.

Speaking of, Numeral of the Saint has a "sunny area" requirement even in gameplay. That's going to be weird to use.

I assume it just means in game maps that don't take place at night time. Which should be pretty easy to find.

Also, Romulus and Mozart next up for strengthen: Romulus gets guts and Mozart makes stars.

Stargen or premade stars?

Gain 20-50 stars depending on rank, 7-5 turn cooldown. Romulus guts also gives buster up 10-30.

So Instincts on Steroids.

The Strengthening has been getting better with every batch.

Hopefully they keep it up for Carmilla, but I really doubt it. They're just throwing a bone to people who like doing bronze Servant runs.

Also man 300 inventory is great. I only had maybe two slots opened up in my Servant space and had barely any room, now I can go ahead and stockpile exp cards for tomorrow when I can finally do the Archer quests.

Yes, the inventory increasing and refund were both great gifts.

Oh apparently Romulus' third skill is a targeted buff, not just for himself.

So he can add guts to someone else? That's... very neat actually. So far, I think Iri's the only other servant that can grant someone else Guts.

Paraselcus can grant a Guts effect.

So he does. That's 3, I don't think there's any other servant that can.

Also, I've just realized that the best surgeon in the entire game is Jack the Ripper, which is hilarious.

She always goes into battle saying it's time to start cutting. I can only think she's practicing for entry into medical school.

You're just feeding the people who write shitty fanfiction with that, dood.

Hilarious as the idea of any given college trying to cope with Jack the Stripper is, you know it'll just be wasted.

Okay, so apparently Nasu made a post on his blog that clarified a good bunch of things about Camelot.

• Fou apparently always means something when he goes foufoufou, but they're kept hidden because apparently too spoilery. The exception is him calling Da Vinci an idiot for the magic-powered wooden car because it was just too ridiculous.
• The Round Table Knights we see did indeed kill the other knights who didn't agree with The Lion King's crazy plan. They weren't very happy about that.
• The Gifts. Gawain wished for an eternal sun so he could be at his most useful for his King, Lancelot wanted the ability to judge fairly so he wouldn't be so conflicted about the whole thing, Tristan wished for reversal as he hated his own sadness at following the King's orders. Agravain refused the gift, and Mordred didn't say anything but Artoria gave her anyway the ability to rumble as much as she wants. Turns out daddy knows her son better than we thought.
• Gareth is a woman in TM, and was actually among the survivors. But she REALLY didn't take the slaughter well, wished to be clean again, and when that wasn't enough decided to die, mounting a suicide charge to take out the Crusaders and their own Servant (Richard the Lionheart from Fate/strange Fake, who would apparently have been a lot of trouble for the knights if it wasn't for Gareth's kamikaze attack. I guess Nasu wanted to use him but that would have been too spoilery for SF so this is what we get; he is still foreshadowingly described as crazy strong, but not looking nor acting like the living Richard would).

Huh I thought for sure Gawain mentioned Gareth as one of the ones killed.

Also as expected of Arthurface Richard. He probably teamed up with Saladin too just like they did against the Dead Apostles with the aid of Cursed Arm Hassan since this is the era he lived in.

Gawain mentioned that Gaheris was killed. I guess this explains why Xuan was offered Gareth's spot.

Da Vinci too silly for Fou-kun.

If that was too silly, I wonder what he thinks of the Ozymobile.

I got the Sumo CE to level 44 so Vlad has 13,640 attack equipped with it. The attack boost is definitely noticeable.

Lancelots blessing is hilarious in retrospect since he did nothing about the problem directly till Mashu called him out on it and had an unfair judgement of Agrabain until he makes it clear he's nothing like he thought.

Edit: richards personality being weird is commented by Ayaka in SF too.

Richard the Lionheart was the suicidal idiot who charged the Arab forces when the Holy Roman guys were trying to get Barbarossa (who was in a barrel at the time) to a proper place to bury him, right?

Might've just been Age of Empires, tho.

(Also, I seem to recall it actually being just short of impossible to actively save him because he's just that eager to kill himself.)

Nah he is just that courageous. Him and No Name are teaming up in SF with Enkidu.

Also reading up everything had Gone Horribly Wrong for Solomons minions this time. Not only did Ozy turn on them when he was summoned and made part of it Egypt, Richard and the Fake Crusaders also turned on them when summoned and took them prisoner. Then Artoria showed up and took care of the Crusaders and them.

We will likely have to add Nasus type moon blog for All There in the Manual as well.

Considering that Ozy outright hijacked the Demong God Pillar and was fully in control of it... Yeah, Solomon's plans just kept failing.

Incidentally, we have Grand Caster, and given how things are, Gilgamesh pretty much has to be Grand Archer. Ozymandias just earned himself a very realistic shot at being Grand Rider too.

Also, I'm still laughing at the fact that he can apparently fly around on his Pyramid, and throw it at his enemies. That's just hilarious.

Which dailies can you get dragon fangs from?
