Eh, it's more that I want to get in on the case files event when it comes out.

Also I'm at the opposite of burnt out atm. I want more to do with FGO but it takes me like, 10 mins to clear out my AP bar lol. I'm sure it'll change once CCC comes out, but I want more to do right now. I guess I can play other games, but there's not much that interests me right now lol.

I don't really plan to take my JP account that seriously anyway.
It's looking like you'll need to be up to date with the story to participate at all in the Case Files event. JP hasn't been the most beginner friendly experience lately.

Eh that's fine. If I can then I can, but at least it gives me something FGO related to do lol.

Also man I rolled carmilla as my starter SR and I can't wait for her renewed animations to come stateside.

Going through Shinjuku in the free week and having a rough time, mostly due to self imposed challenges. I mean I could probably run full Arts/Buster Memelin comps, but instead I'm going thru the whole thing blind, using the story support, and forcing myself to have an all-Evil Party. My Evil Servants are pretty good, but they just lack synergy with each other. Like how does Tamamo support MHXA besides a bit of heal? Liz Lancer is a great support though.

How did everyone else clear it?

FGO JP. Played up to the end of septem.

Holy shit you kinda forgot how padded the early game was. Just nodes and nodes of 5 battles each.

Also I got enough rolls for around 3 multis. All shit. Didn't even get okada izou who I really really want. At least that prepares me for next year;s guda guda :(

Just basically have kiyohime and supports carry everything.

My sister's S6 Edge stopped being able to read sim cards, so she upgraded and gave me the phone to use for FGO. I wasn't sure how it would fair being an older device, but it seems to be running extremely well atm, probably because that and Qooapp are the only things installed on it (outside of default apps). It's quite nice having a device just for FGO. Saves me battery and I can simply turn off the device when I'm not playing.

I finally got around to doing the last mission of Shinjuku after leaving it for a month. Was a nice ending. I enjoyed Shinjuku overall. I was planning to farm pages but I have to unlock the node and I cba lol. I am enjoying this down time though. Back to back events that were pretty full on was enough for me to want to not play for a little bit.

Speaking of JP. I started my account there during the 3rd anniversary (8 month ago) and since then I only spent money for 2 GSSRs (which now cost half of NA btw) got 11 SSRs (including NP level). I currently have about 350 quartz and I'm still missing about 100 from free quests and EOR. I started NA on launch (21 month ago), paid about 200€ since then and got 9 SSRs. I still really enjoy playing my NA account but currently quartz rewards are lower than JP (or JP just took all my luck, I just got Okita Alter with one 10 roll...)

Luckily NA will get a lot of features that reward SQ (more than 600 if I remember correctly) in the next 2 years so the situation should get better. People always need to remember that we are 2 years behind and shouldn't compare current NA to the current JP.

The same happened to me when I wanted to go sleep with the 131 Level up, while the 132 level up was perfectly timed and helped me to clear the two ladders of the last Gudaguda events without any additional apple use.

Yep, that makes me feel bad. Spent a lot more than that and I still have less SSR's, lol. Well, mainly the Tamamo disaster is to blame for that.
And no, this is not an invitation for ppl to come out with their success stories who paid less and got even more SSR's in the same time span. Please. :D

Btw, so far, what are still the worst classes for peeps when it comes to servants summoned?

I still have no SSR assassin and only 2 non event SR assassins.

I'll need to level BB anyway since I'll want an Alter Ego, since I'm sure Kiara will be all "ara ara" with me and fail to anser my summoning.

Second reminder to save up ambers for BB, as you are gonna need them if you are thinking about finishing the event.
You don't actually need to save embers for BB. The mission is to get her to third ascension, which as a 4* means level 60. It takes 112 gold class embers to reach that level without super/great successes, and the event shop will give 100 gold and 100 silver (worth ~33 gold) embers, which is more than enough.

There's no particular need for an alter ego, but the next welfare liz is one if you want one.

I have a bunch of Lancer and Rider EXP stored up for summer, but I'm thinking it might be a little premature and just use them on BB or to grail gil now that I managed to np2 him.

It'd be nice if they did a 1/2 off something if they were going to do 2 dead weeks, rather than have it in the middle of guda guda for god knows what reason.

Archer is the only standard class I don't have an SSR. My king still eludes me. Also IIRC I didn't have a non-welfare SR Archer either until last Fall sometime when I got Emiya. Thankfully every Archer is great so it's not a struggle.

No gacha luck since Valentines but my farming drops have been excellent. Got about 5 hearts from Caster dailies runs over two weeks, and got some ridiculous 8 straight gold boxes on the Camelot horseshoe node.

I need those embers to level up servants that have half off interludes right now though...

Only a SSR lancer eludes me now. My aoe options are almost all f2p though so I have to be creative with farming, or just ask you guys.

I do have Drake as my SSR rider and a few SR riders, but all of them are AoE and the only ST rider I have is Ushi.

Also having to rely a lot on Kiyo on JP and I'm surprised at how good her NP gain is.

Her updated animations are also pretty glorious.

I decided that this was the banner I would use to get Tamamo. She's my favorite Fate character but I was always saving for someone else so never even tried for her outside of GSSR.

I got her today with 10 tickets, leaving my Ereshkigal funds pretty much untouched :)

I seriously lack Riders, Santa Alter is pretty much all I've got so that's definitely my biggest blind spot. Emiya is also my only SR Assassin since I missed the Kara no Kyokai event. And that's only taking SRs into consideration, I'm significantly worse off if we're talking about SSRs, though thankfully the SSRs I do have are pretty diversified (Saber, Lancer, Archer and Avenger, 1 of each). Maybe it's for the best since I'm perpetually out of mats as is. Except dust, I got dust for days.

I'm pretty good on Archer, especially Saber, Rider, Assassin, Caster, Avenger, and Ruler. Lancer and Berserker need better units.

I do have Alter LArturia but she is for farming more than challenge and not ST NP. I don't really have a good ST Lancer atm but Shisou would be great if not Karna. Though I'll more than likely just use Raikou Lancer instead lol.

For Berserker still waiting on my Raikou to complement my Herc ST NP. Don't really like much else in that class for servants.

I would like a ST Archer of the higher rarity but tbh I have so many AOE versions and Robin Hood gets insane work done as a 3* Archer. Oh I do have Orion though lol. Just remembered as I was looking over the tier list. So Archer class is pretty set.

Saber class is way too crowded for me. Nero Bride gave me a ST NP saber but I do want Musashi since I like Buster more. I have Mordred and Salter for AOE spam.

Rider I just have Ozy who can put in the work for ST damage. AOE I have Medusa but Martha will replace her if need be later on once I level her up.

Assassin I have Jack for ST and Carmilla as well so I'm fairly set. Don't have AOE assassin but who does? I wouldn't complain if Cleopatra ended up in my Chaldea though. But she is a want, not a need servant atm.

Caster I have Merlin, who the hell else do you need? Also have Caster Gil and Nursery Rhyme. I do want Xunzang really bad but she is after Raikou.

Avenger I have Gorgon and Lobo. Nothing crazy but I love Gorgon and she does hella AOE with Merlin buff. I do want Jalter eventually but no rush for her.

Ruler I have Shirou Amakusa so no issue there for AOE.

I'm basically almost done collecting the servants I really wanted. Now I just need to save up to get the servants I want once the servants I need have joined me.

What's the question being asked, weakest class? I think I'm relatively well-balanced overall, though still missing two of the three great supports. Otherwise I've got at least one decent single target and AoE in each standard class to varying degrees (partially courtesy of all the free event servants), even if they're not all the top tier best. Obviously there's a lot of options I don't or won't ever have, but so far I've been holding on somehow, even if I barely made it out of Solomon and Shinjuku -- the CCC event will be a real make-or-break indicator. Been in a gacha slump since the paid banner at new year's, too.

Riders is my weakest area. Hoping Alter Ego will take care of my caster killing needs.

I don't really have any weak spot in my servant list. It used to be Riders though. Eventhough I'm a whale I only had Drake until Quetz came home. I tried a good amount for Ozy but never got him.

Spent 20 tickets in an attempt to get my second 2030. My rolls were pretty good and got 2 on banner CEs, but sadly no 2030. I did however get my third Liz. What do people think of me burning her to get the rare prism? I only use her as a support so NP3 doesn't do much for me, and I don't have MLB Mona Lisa yet due to me starting the game late. I really hate burning servants though lol.

Extra classes are what I lack because I don't go in on any of their banners. Riders used to avoid me, but I got Drake during the New Year's GSSR and Maeve during Valentine's.

For MLB Mona Lisa? Burn the Lizard. She'll show up again anyway, she always does.

Definitely burn her.

As for antiwhippy's question earlier, it's Assassin for me. Although that's because Shiki is my favourite TM character so I have no real interest in using any other ST Assassins and AoE wise I have Scathach and Cleo so I'm all good there. Can't see myself rolling for a SSR Assassin again until Kama.
