@Yakuzu: Nasu's a lot like Hideo Kojima on that front.

What's the Western equivalent of those two, Chris Claremont, maybe? The man certainly writes, he writes so much one wonders why he even bothers with pictures in the first place.

More datamined info from today's update

Caster Gil and Raikou (RIP KINTOKI) are getting NP upgrades, new "Large Humanoid" trait implies David NP upgrade, and a new "Special Invincible" buff that could apply to the theorized Artoria/Emiya/maybe Herc upgrades on the livestream day, it might be for the Fuyuki superboss memorial quest, or it might be nothing at all.

The site that datamines this stuff is legit (it caught stuff like the NA bug with healing Command Codes a few weeks back), so I believe it.

Well, we can add Raikou to the list of "upgrading things that really do not need some sort of upgrade". Poor Vlad.

Pretty sure the confusion is more why she'd get to be a giant humanoid whilst not having plain humanoid. She's the same shape in all cases. [lol]

Thinking further on it, it could either be a skill upgrade that gives David a new anti-giant humanoid buff or NP upgrade.

Probably Charisma if it's a skill.

And then they actually give it to Raikou's NP despite Shuten being tiny. [lol]

Someone I knew bought up a good point.

The last memorial quest opens up on the 10th, and you have to clear Singularity F to do it. And the last four servants to get strengthenings are 3* Lancer, 4* Berserker, 4* Archer, and 5* Saber which all correspond to four of the OG servants.

So yea, Cu, Herc, Emiya, and Altria are getting buffs I guess.

Artoria I get, because she's mid tier and they'll probably just give her an Avalon buff for lore reasons.

But Cu, Emiya, and Herc are already top tier servants. Herc in particular has been the best 4* Berserker since day fucking one. What you could you possibly give him that doesn't go into looney toons territory.

Emiya could turn his evade skill for Rho Aias for Invencibility and a higher DEF buff.

Cu could get some crit skills from his Proto counterpart or some manner of Burn effect (fire runes, remember?)

Herk I got no bloody clue beyond a Buster Buff.

Is it wrong I actually want Astolfo's Sailor Fuku and d'Eon's Meido as Costume Dresses?

I would say special invincibility sounds like an enemy boss mechanic but they... already have that. It's just 100% special damage reduction.

Raineh: I feel sorry for Vlad. He needs a strengthening quest that improves his hidden stats like NP gain per hit. Raikou NP upgrade... seems like it would put her on more competitive footing with Arjuna.

Time to try out double Skadi/Melt/Summer BB shenanigans in this Nezha boss fight. Apparently she starts with six evades (actually, Berserker Nezha is supposed to be male?) but her NP should remove that, I think? Hope so! Probably won't get a good draw for this. That'll totally ruin this because I decided to start with BHG for maximum shenanigans.

Yakuzu: I doubt she'll get Avalon.

Disconnected from Agartha, those are hardly bad things or all that illogical in either case. Also I don't really like D'Eon's final outfit anyway, so... yes, maid dress please.

[up] Seriously, a few strengthenings to just buff hidden stats would be nice. Abigail is another one who has incredibly awful NP gain for a triple-arts deck. I like using her but because her NP doesn't fit into arts chains it can really suck...
