Erroratu said, February 20, 2016, 05:36:19 pmI hope they put Shikis own class in there but I doubt thats gonna happenWasn't Monster datamined though?
Wasn't it Beast ? At least the Demon God Pillars are that class (class advantage over all three Knight classes), and I think Avenger is guessed to be that too (unless he's the opposite, weak to the three Knights, not sure).... Yeah, it's the Beast classhttp://blogs.nrvnqsr.com/entry.php/3298-The-Weapon-Triangle-Spoiler-VersionAnd Avenger is his own class that takes double from everyone and only deals double to Berserker and Ruler (and Alter-ego) lolNo Monster class.
OH-Well that sucks I was expecting something like... Katana Shiki to be a 5* or something.I forgot they had Avenger datamined, I wonder when we'll get the first one (And more Rulers too)
I was going to say the Avenger class is supposed to be only for Angra Mainyu, but we know how far that went with the Assassins. Maybe Edmond Dantes could be Avenger, who knows. Hell, maybe even Ibaraki Douji could be stretched into one. As for Ruler, beside Amakusa, there was someone who claimed that Nightingale would be one (basically White Mage type), but I never saw if that came from a datamine or a complete guess, so probably the latter.Still not totally convinced that Shiki will be free. It would make sense that the next free Servant for a limited event is an Assassin (we got a Caster, Archer, Rider, Saber, the pattern should follow with Assassin then Lancer and Berserker so e're sure to have someone available to go Grand Servant for each class) but that still feels super strange that DW would give away someone like goddamn Shiki (and for a limited event Servant that disappear, there's Okita as a precedent).

Or maybe the 5* servant will blow our minds (Instead of being a rate up servant from the previous event, I dunno)
They'll probably have regular Shiki as the free servant, and Young Shiki (Shiki Lily?) or Void Shiki (Saber Class) will be the premium Servant.

With that, I mean about how broken she is, compared to Nobunaga who was more balanced. I'm really afraid to see how broken the next 5* special event Servant will be.

We all saw that coming. Oh well, I rather prefer Shiki 4* than 5*. I won't waste my quartz in this event, tickets are the only thing I will use here.The CEs, btw, are not bad. I specially like the one that breaks through invincibility.Also maintenance notes:https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/475xai/maintenance_starts_on_25th_february_01000700_jst/Daaaaaamn, I won't be able to kill Servants with dodge skills using Drake anymore. Damn it.
? I'm not sure I get it but what I'm reading is that if Cu has a 3 hit dodge and you use the pierce, he still has 3 hit dodge, and the fix is that he should have 2 - but he still gets hit. He used one up and it got pierced.I think.
Bastard Mami said, February 23, 2016, 05:05:04 pmsaber shiki is pay2win ?Or more accurately, pay2getnothing (or pay2getshit).... Fuck, I'll need to hit the QP dailies really hard from now on, I'm completely broke, it just completely drains away so fast with skills

He used one up and it got pierced.I think.What happened before is that if Cu set his 3 hit dodge, for example, and I used Drake's skill that gave her the ability to go through invulnerability, what I experienced is that I was able to hit them through their dodge skill, but my attacks wouldn't affect the counter for that skill. So if I pulled a Brave combo on him, he would still have the dodge intact, with the same amount of hits left before the attack. At least that's what I experienced with Drake.
Yes, that's what I'm saying ? The number of hits he can dodge will now decrease, even though you still hit him. If I understand the text right (I haven't even checked the Japanese announcement though, just what the reddit guy says).
Yeah, because that's how it was supposed to work. Even if you bypass the dodge/invulnerability, it's still a valid attack so the counter should have decreased in the past, making it really annoying as that made the character with the bypass not really helping you except for damage. In exchange of that fix, you cannot bypass dodge with a invulnerability break skill anymore, which sucks because that made Drake even more broken than she was. I basically wrote my experiences I had with that skill with Drake, to give you an example.Btw, 6 quartz aka 6 hours wow (yeah, I noticed it now). I guess they went safe here after the big fuck up in the previous event. I wouldn't be surprised if it happens again though.---------------Edit: And here's the Cirnopedia page AND the spreadsheet.http://fate-go.cirnopedia.info/quest_event_20160225.phpI finally will be able to upgrade Drake's NP Increase skill to 6 without having to farm for skill gems.
Nanashi_1337 said, February 23, 2016, 09:51:13 pmIn exchange of that fix, you cannot bypass dodge with a invulnerability break skill anymoreUh ? I don't think that's what it says. Well, the text on reddit might be interpreted that way, but that's not interpreting it right. The Japanese text 回避スキルを発動したエネミーに無敵貫通状態で攻撃を行った際、発動回数が減らない不具合を修正 says that when an enemy uses a dodge skill, and you hit him with a pierce attack, then the number of dodges will decrease. The fix is only affecting the number of dodges that wouldn't decrease, it's not removing the part where pierce can hit dodge. Honestly pierce would be shit if it couldn't anymore, because there's, what, two Servants at best who have invulnerability as opposed to dodge ?
Ohh, so it's left intact? Then yay! Drake will still be as broken as she currently is! And even more if now I will be able to decrease the hit counter of such skills.Also, the number of characters that can have invulnerability is the infamous Marie (if you've done daily quests you know what I mean), Jeanne with her NP, Shakespeare and Babbage, and that's it. But yeah, compared to the amount of characters with dodge skill, that's really nothing, so I'm glad the translation was not accurate in this part.
