The Bull of Heaven is the real fight anyway.
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.Librarian: Well, what do you think Chen Gong's third skill is for? ...For ignoring Lu Bu cause he sucks and pairing him with Raikou or Arjuna Alter, obviously!
Shlugo: Personally I tend to go nuts during raffles events so my roster is actually pretty well leveled up. And I stopped burning silver exp since it's still worth about a third of what SR exp is. One day I hope they have a raffle that has Fous in it. Even if it's just one or two that's still a lot of Fous over time.
Incidentally, there weren't any raffle events while I was gone, were there? Apart from the standard Christmas/Nerofest.
Bull of Heaven was a really obnoxious fight even for me. The only other one that stands out as comparably annoying in my memory is probably King Hassan challenge quest.
@Arha, what are raffles events?
Ones where you spend tokens on functionally unlimited* box full of items like exp, ascension mats, QP, and MP and event grinding is split between the usual event shop and tokens to roll the box.
*Only in the initial run, the rerun limits it to ten boxes only.
They're otherwise referred to as lottery events. Certain events tend to have a particular drop item that can be exchanged for random draws from a limited box of items. Then, either once you get the grand prize item, or when you empty the box, you are given the option to open a new box and start trading drops for draws of that box.
Each Nerofest (or Gilfest, as of the next one in NA) is a lottery event, and there is no limit to the number of boxes one can open. Christmas events are also lottery events, and while there is a limit on number of boxes during rerun events, there is no limit during the new Christmas event for the year.
Are the boxes actually worth it tho?
oh no wait da Vinci rerun didn't limit the number of boxes either
yeah there weren't any lottery events in 2019 or 2020 so far besides the usual yeah
It’s basically infinite supplies of anything in those events as long as you’re willing to grind for it.
You should always do at least like the first ten boxes of any given lottery event because there's event items required for Christmas welfares/sometimes Servant costumes/Gold Fous/Lores/event CEs in those.

Speaking of Christmas, everybody should participate in this year one since there's no re run.
Shlugo: Like Christmas and Nerofest. And also the Jalter event, which is the only other one I know of offhand.
Whether it's worth it or not depends on the contents. I think a typical box requires about 600 currency to clear completely and will have about 6m QP (sometimes more if it's like Christmas where you can exchange the fruit cake for 500k), 25 gold and 15 silver exp, about 50 mana prisms, and then 2-4 of three bronze or silver ascension mats. So if the lottery has, say, knight's medals, snake gems and homunculus babies it's hard to get super excited, but if it's bones, plumes and gears then people will get excited. Also, Christmas time at least will have stuff like the skill gems for the various classes, which can be a pain to get otherwise. If you're like me, you'll also value the pieces and statues too because you intend to ascend everyone to maximum level.
The first couple boxes will also have required items like, say, welfare Servant ascension items.

That does sound good.
It helps that if you don't mind a small efficiency hit you can generally put them on macros. I used to do that through Nox or whatever emulation program, but I think they basically killed those off so I'll need to learn how to do it on a phone so I can just leave the game running and come back to loads of currency built up.
Lotto events are essentially goldmines for getting certain materials and leveling up your servants.
It's why they're comparatively the rarest event.
Nerofest/Gilfest are generally considered the best in terms of Lotto content. So I highly reccomend you farm Gilfest come September.
If you're wondering why they're named that way...well Nero ran the event first for fun, and then Gil was like "you are little baby, watch this" and took over using his dosh.
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.I prefer Christmas, personally. It's usually a bit easier to farm and has better rewards.
So I just looked at the announcement for the event farming of Summer 3. JP vets be real with me, is this going to suck to grind as hard as it looks like?
Regardless of your opinion of the last American election, we can all agree on one thing- The Chinese Communist Party can choke on scrotes!I just hope that it isn't just one currency drop per node... Which would force us to farm six different nodes just to get all different currencies for the shop.
Please let it be "one bill" and "one currency" drop simultaneously per node... that would make it less nodes to farm.
No, not really as long as you keep track of rotating through the various ladders to keep on top of the doujin CE to get through each loop.
I actually got Salter Rider from yesterday when trying out the banners with the coupons.
Fire Emblem Heroes Code: 4547311645 Fate/Grand Order Code: 188037115Well, I guess that I have to see the structure for myself before making a proper judgment on how to approach it first. And it's not like it's that far away from now...
(Now I got plenty of time to decide on which support-rider I should put in the support-list for the Summer Carnival once it arrives. "Rishtar, Ridetoria or Morder?"...the infinite question.)
Whoever gives the highest event bonus is always the answer. Or is named Waver. Skadi if JP.
Well, the hesitation here comes from these three being the only Riders giving the drop bonus and all three of them have the same amounts of drops in said bonus (aka "Small").
So when the scales are tilted equally like that, the difficulty to choose between them becomes that much more apparent.

Well, I personally backline support Servants unless they're Waver/Skadi/Merlin, so, uh, probably just the SSR.
I guess I have to wait for this rerun to be over before I hear anything about the 5th anniversary.

???
"Back line" the support-servants?
Is that possible?
(Having played every single fight so far with the Support nailed at the right-side frontline's spot.)
(I guess that I never tried moving it before...)

The CQ were really cheesable this time. NP looping Gorgon with BB, Waver and Mash, denying her NP charges, stunning her, and removing her debuffs... I felt kinda bad for her, like I was bulling her.
