Yeah, no one hasn't posted here in a LONG ass time so I'll do an update on my own end:

- FINALLY got Miyu during the Back To School Campaign which got me NP4 Illya(She was NP2 before the banner... apparently, I will always get Prisma Illya whenever I roll for Miyu)

- Ended up getting stupid lucky on Summer 6(3 Majin Saber, 2 Kama Avenger, 3 Summer Nastya, 3-4 Summer Caenis, 3-4 Summer Sei, 1 Summer Char didn't require much SQ. Ended up also getting Douman with a Ticket Pull(Or a Paid Single).

- Rolled on the Interlude Banner for Van Gogh, got Enkidu(Which continued by streak of going deep for Van Gogh for a spook, the first time was NP8 Jeanne D'Arc and Xiang Yu)

- Went on the Jacques Banner and only got NP2 Zenobia which was fine enough.

- Finally grabbed Himiko on most likely either a Paid Single, Ticket or single Multi

- Got NP2 Izumo No Okuni and NP4 Altera during her banner. Went for Lancer Ryoma and that was a bust.

- Did a single Multi on the Christmas Banner hoping for CEs and having a bad feeling I would get Skadi, got NP2 Skadi which obliterated my Beni-Enma luck again as I got spooked by Europa.

- Did a few multis on the Tunguska Banner and ended up with Taigong Wang(Seems like Nikitch didn't want to see me, it's cool)

GSSR:


First Double GSSR I have had and both are Servants I wanted and for that, Koyanskaya of Darkness did not show up either with 5 multis. Going to save for Bazett now and hope she shows up(Will do Paid Singles otherwise).

Even though this isn't meant as a double post, I might as well put my 2 cents into the UE stuff and the new things they added:

Basically, they made the cushioning to UE as harmless as they could... which is honestly a surprise.
There is a code to literally get an A5 UE Mukai fully maxed out on the spot and no strings attached:
KOF03MUKAI

The Event also gives you easy access to get his Finisher, The UE Imprint Stones, Plugins, Consolidated Awakening XP Capsules and the works.
Magaki is actually the OTHER Free one you can get through his coins alongside his Finishers or with a Ticket that gives you a guarantee of one of those or Magaki himself.
The CP gains from them are ENORMOUS(It doesn't take much to get them to 2 million CP) and they tend to be more expanded EX characters in terms of how they are used. Also, after A5 to get them to A9 is no different than how it works for everyone else so you don't need to roll extra. Alongside the Ruby Refund, you can easily roll copies for the UE Ash, Maki or their cards or save up for Saiki and Kusanagi later on.

HOWEVER, this doesn't really save the fact that this is an obvious super spike as again, EX units while not rendered immediately useless, will be made so later on.
Basically, Content is now not based on your CP but now on the character's Overall Power(which is now a new bullshit ranking that still works like CP deficits on harder difficulties) which is built the same way as CP is and can be viewed the same way CP is. Before anyone says anything, yes, OP still includes every other character class, not just UE.
The new mode Tower of Illusions literally gatekeeps the shit out of you by REQUIRING A7 and above to even be able to do it and it's the same deal with the Plugin stages requiring Awakening levels(but much lower at the start).

Basically, they tried to soften the blow of UE as much as possible by giving us an even more broken version of the F2P Ivy and the Refund Event AND a chance at multiple free Magakis...
The issue is that we know Netmarble will never stop powercreeping and thus, they will ultimately be outdone and the new content will keep focusing on the massive powercreep. HOWEVER, if they actually use this as a new beginning and stop with the insane powercreep... it actually won't be so bad and EX units won't be effectively meaningless as having it be based on OP is actually a good safety net(As quite a few of my EX Units outstrip my AI UE Ash in terms of OP unless I awaken him further.) and to not go overboard... but I am not going to pretend it won't happen.

Yeah, this is absolutely going to kill the game because they cannot do anything more than insane powercreep.
It's not even like SDS: Grand Cross where atleast where it's ridiculous but it does make some stupid level of sense it's like this.
We still have no way to even get BS and SS units without them being on EX banners and we only have a chance of getting the tokens needed to level them normally, EX Units need to go through pure whale level territory to even get their versions(and have to deal with RNG on top of that.
And powercreep even then usually means any units below EX(and now UE) is now effectively meaningless and there's no damn reward for even going through the effort that makes it worth it.

I can't really say that your luck is great like mine isn't either but I did use 90 SQ and fail to get Merlin myself... again.

Oh well, time to save for Summer 6 which is apparently coming in August for Summer Kama. I'll do Paid Singles and hope for an Summer Nastya or even Summer Okitan till then.

I don't really feel like putting pictures of my overall on Oberon and going for NP5 Morgan so:

It took me basically 61 SQ to get Oberon and I put in an extra 150 to try for Sith and Barghest copies... no dice

I decided to go in for more Morgan copies and got the 2 I needed for NP5 within 400 SQ.
I ended up getting 2 more Barghest and Sith during this so both are at NP4.

Really need to start posting back here more often...


My GSSR. I did go for Muramasa earlier this year and failed so it's not a bust, I do actually like the character, even if I don't necessarily like Shirou himself. Of course, considering I have all of the current Rinface Servants, almost every Sakura face outside of Kingprotea, Astraea and all of the Artoria Servants... the NTR memes write themselves, huh? :behead2:

Tsuna is a wash since he was at NP5 already.



Had to go below the Oberon pity I had but I also got Koyanskaya of Light, meaning I can officially use my Buster Servants with a true Support, not just Nightingale(I love her but she's no Merlin, she's no Koyanskaya and she's absolutely no Oberon). I will get the remaining funds from later on, so I can still reach pity on him if I have to alongside trying to get the NP5 Tam Lin on his banner(Hopefully they are on there).

Not pictured, I ended up getting 2 Caenis which she's now at NP5 so that's a congrats right there since I tend to use her when find the time.

My SSR Ticket pick was Cu Alter for the NP Buff, the Interludes and the fact that I got all of the Cu's now(I know about Setanta but he's welfare) for another completed collection of variations of the F/SN cast(Until we get the newly introduced Saber Medusa...)

My Banner Luck has been okay for the LB6 Banners:

NP3 Morgan
NP3 Sith
NP2 Barghest
NP4 Waver(Yeah, got spooked out of NP4 Morgan)
and like 3-4 SR spooks

NP1 Melusine
NP2 Percival
Like 3 SR spooks

SSRs are nowhere near as a pain in the ass as getting SRs is.

Honestly, I'm low key getting real tired of the game and it's shit.
Tried the Weekend Time Attack and I already want to kick someone's ass for basically requiring EX Units to even do it quickly. Great loss of 200 Rubies for myself now due to that crap.
They then give us these EX Generic Memories but OF COURSE, they color gate them because why the hell not, especially when they are gearing content around EX Units completely now.

And we still got the terrible rateups that make getting the EXs such a pain in the ass(Where you are lucky if you can pull just one with the free Rubies they give you, let alone the required 4 for a decent Unit) and the consistent powercreep for each one.

Been a long time since I was here...
To give a status report since I left:

- Got Archer Gilgamesh off a ticket with the Thanksgiving Celebration
- Wasted 600 SQ+ on Van Gogh to only get my first Xiang Yu and NP8 Jeanne D'Arc
- Further wasted a like 300+ SQ on Ashiya Douman and got nothing but NP2-3 Tsuna
- Ended up getting NP2 Ibuki Douji(thank god) with 180 SQ
- Got Vritra while going for CEs on Christmas(did an extra 2-3 for more copies and failed)
- GSSR got me NP2 Meltryllis which is good(Since I recently had fun using her in Olympus)
- Did 3 multis on Muramasa and got NP2 Karna(hard to say if that's a win since I wanted dupes of Karna since forever but yeah)
- Had to go to pity for Kagekiyo and any subsequent rolls did not get me NP2.

I may do 1-3 multis on Caren, I'm not sure but I'm virtually saving for Morgan so I won't do any major levels of rolls for Caren or Crane and basically skip every other banner.

Can I point out this "Bridget chooses to be a girl" only happens if you lose at the final boss fight atleast once meanwhile nothing about it ever happens if you beat the boss without losing(Only Bridget wanting to be true to themselves which can mean anything)?

And again, people are seriously reaching for transphobia way too fast for fictional characters and wonder why they aren't getting the standing they should. I literally got labeled transphobic for not saying Testament is a they when even in character, Testament doesn't give a damn about his gender and what people call him because Testament's a Gear.
And it's honestly becoming a bit ridiculous on all levels to have people show up and start throwing it around and thinking they are getting brownie points for it, especially over someone giving out the wrong context and taking it to be true.
Besides, do people really want to go this route after Bridget's backstory? And how the "Non-Flawless" ending has Bridget go about it? Because that has some really bad implications if you really think that it's okay for him to even want to be a girl after basically being forced into it at birth otherwise he would be killed or exiled as a child due to superstition.

Now thats hot.

She has 2 types of animation? Normal arcuied and arch type earth?

Btw her NP transforms the stage , hope they update other servants that has field effects as well.
[Youtube]https://youtu.be/3euItYuk1LM[/youtube]

Apparently in the past, Servants DID have their Field Effects for their NPs... it just left itself open to glitches:


So yeah, it's 100% possible but I can see why they didn't do it again until TYPE-Earth.

Stole this from Reddit

Archetype: Earth [QAABB] Limited Buster AOE Moon Cancer
    S1 Rainbow Mystic Eye A - Applies Skill Seal on all enemies (1T) and Applies Defense Down on all enemies [10%-20%] (3T) and Increases ATK for self [20%-30%] (3T)
    S2 Breath of Stars C - Increases NP gauge for self [50%-100%] and Increases NP damage for self [10%-20%] (3T)
    S3 Funny Vamp EX - Applies Invincibility to all allies (1 time, 3 turns) and Applies Buff Removal Resistance Up [50%-100%] for Good trait allies and Increases NP gauge for all allies except self if on <Millenium Castle> field [20%-30%]
    NP Marble Phantasm (Buster) - Changes field to <Millenium Castle> (3T) and Deals damage to all enemies [NP lvl: 300%-500%] <deals supereffective damage to Chaotic enemies> [NP lvl: 150%-200%] and Increases NP gauge for Living Human trait allies except self [OC: 20%-40%]

cooldowns 8/9/8 to 6/7/6

Passives:
    Magic Resistance A+ - Increases own Debuff Resistance by 21%
    Territory Creation EX - Increases own Arts card effectiveness by 12%
    Item Construction A - Increases own Debuff Success Rate by 10%
    Independent Action A - Increases own Critical Strength by 10%
    Primitive One D - Increases own Buster, Quick, Arts card effectiveness by 30% when on <Millenium Castle> field


Her NP is basically like Miyu's and Euryale's to where the Special Damage Multiplier is tied to the NP level so TYPE-Earth is going to hit REAL HARD against Chaotic Enemies if you get her to NP5 due to the 500% and then the 200% Special Damage multiplier at once.

They basically fixed the problems outside of Abigail not having her Child Attribute and the bug with Summer Murasaki's skill but no Apologems for it(Though it being fixed this quickly is a nice tradeoff).

The Romulus Quirinus one has people trying to go apeshit about it when no one even knew it happened and messups in the code can very, very easily happen and go unnoticed for lesser games(Aliens: Colonial Marines anyone?) and Romulus Qurinus is no Kiara Sessyoin.

Yeah, my luck basically peaked through with it not being that hot on GSSR(NP3 Summer Jeanne is still great, NP2 Lakshmibai? Not so much) but was rescued in getting Castoria within 180 and 24 tickets and Meltryllis in 2 multis.

Yeah, it's just the Main Interlude but it's a permanent one(Permanent in the fact you can replay certain battles and otherwise after you finish and can do the story and that's it)... still really the only one of it's type with Tunguska being a shitty version of that(with lowered HP unlike the Kiara battles).

Meanwhile The Castoria banner and everything else will have it's maintenance at the usual time rather than after the convention itself which could mean more early QoL updates(They did mention we was going to get the better QP/EXP node later so this could be one of the reasons).
GL to all of you in advance going for Castoria as so will I.

The slippery slope doesn't even exist anymore... we have reverted right back to the "video games kill people" argument now.
Completely different situations. Your attitude shows your unwillingness to respect the very idea that someone's gender identity isn't defined by you or your "opinions", that is one thing that doesn't change from characters to people. You're bigoted.

Not even close dude, this is why people get tired of stuff like this because people like you basically get given an inch and take it halfway across the Universe. Testament is not real as is every other character in the series as is every other piece of fictional media.
Authors have consistently made characters come off as Traps(Or the other way around for Females who dress like dudes to the point they come off as male) by making them as girl as possible to the point they are only not a girl due to basically saying so. So please get off that high horse of yours by trying to tell people they are bigots over a videogame character and applying that to real life.

The only bigot I'm seeing here is you, no one else. So unless you have proof that the people here that are just saying their two cents actually are bigots, how about you go put your 2 cents back in your pocket? Because it damn sure isn't warranted or needed as you are clearly just continuing to start needless conflict.

relax, its just a fictional character
Prejudice is prejudice. If you do it to a fictional character, you do it to real people.

The slippery slope doesn't even exist anymore... we have reverted right back to the "video games kill people" argument now.

There is a difference between misgendering someone because you didn't know their gender and misgendering someone after being explicitly informed of the correct one. First case you're just making a mistake, second you're just a jerk.

relax, its just a fictional character

also here we have: NOT Bedman Trailer

...Okay, that's hilarious to make it be the damn BED instead of Bedman since he's... dead. But instead of his sister(whose heavily implied to be free now), it's the Bed? What, Bedman infused his consciousness into it or something?

And I realized it was just a meme LMFAO. Damn, got me good there.
