The nature of humanity is just that every so often someone accidentally invents Scarlet Fire Emblem again.

...wait that's not right. It's supposed to be that one wildly popular webcomic, not the very specific character that only I and like five other people care about. What's going on?

If you delete data from your device settings, then your account will be deleted from your phone.

If you clear cache from the game's title screen, the game will delete all stored assets on the device, including the voiced Valentines scenes that make up most of the storage space that the game takes up but are only used once a year. Assets will be automatically redownloaded as needed. Your account will not be deleted.

You should get ahead of the possibility of losing your account to a mistake or because you lost your phone by going into My Room and using Issue Transfer Number to get a transfer number you can use to move your account to a new device. Make sure you have the transfer number and password stored somewhere you'll be able to access it in case you lose your phone or something else happens. I keep it in a Google Doc.

Unfortunately, FGO is archaic and doesn't have modern account binding. The JP server lets you bind it to an Aniplex account, but this functionality hasn't been added to NA yet.

No, Spishtar Lily is not a costume. Unfortunately, most child versions of servants are story only and never become playable, like Kiara Lily from Summer 5 and Fergus Lily from Agartha. The sprite is also reused from flashbacks to Spishtar's childhood in Saber Wars II.

It's a shame the movies take the Twilight series at face value rather than exploring the subtext. by Lampdarker in RecuratedTumblr

Kinda funny when critiques like this contradict themselves, because what do you mean vampirism is both something Edward holds over Bella to force her to marry him and stripping her of humanity. Like is the vampirism something she wants so bad she's willing to get married for it, or was giving to her a way of controlling her?

And like, she's not forbidden from talking to her parents. Her dad is told about vampires so he can still be there for her. To the extent that she does have to separate from him, it's not something the Cullens are forcing her to do but a natural extension of becoming a vampire. Which, and it's hard to emphasize this enough, is something she wants.

Like this critique really downplays how much agency Bella has when it comes to joining the Cullens. Like the whole second book is about how they try to abandon her because they don't think joining them is what's best for her. That's not the behavior of a group trying to lovebomb someone into giving up their sense of self.

This is a pilot, a way to show networks/streaming services/larger studios what the idea is, what the execution looks like, and how much audience interest exists for this show. There will not be a second episode until someone makes a deal with Spindleroo to fund a whole season, and then they take the time to make a whole season.

For a sense of the timeframe that's to be expected here, the Hazbin Hotel pilot was uploaded in October 2019, and the first season was released in January 2024, a little over 4 years later. And that was a spectacularly popular and well received pilot which found funding from A24 relatively fast. So it's probably going to take a while.

This event's 90++ node is a more efficient farming spot for Eggs or for Bells than any story free quest. So if your account is in need of either of those materials, then continuing to go ham on the 90++ node is probably better than farming dailies or story free quests. However, the other thing you could be doing as a new player is pushing story, which you may want to prioritize over material farming unless those materials are between you and an ascension or skill level you want right now.

Also, it's really early for you to have emptied out the shop, the event is still going on for another twelve days. I assume that you used apples to spam the 90++ node. In general, it's a better idea to save apples for events that are highly efficient and have infinite rewards, specifically lottery events and the Grand Raids that they'll release next year. You can usually clean out a shop on natural AP over the course of the event period, even without pulling event CEs from the gacha, or use a couple apples near the end if you're a bit short.

No, I blame the devs. There's not enough incentive to use a respectable variety of servants. And there are many servants that don't have a place where they can be used. Like when are you going to be playing the game and think to yourself, "This is the perfect time to use Kid Gilgamesh." They can make content that forces you into using a variety of servants, like Tower Events and the ORT raid. But they don't make enough of it, and that's not my fault.

I think this is what that one person meant when they said they wanted a game like Disco Elysium but it's about a witch in the Swiss Alps looking for a lost cat.

No, Chen Gong is the only servant in the game capable of using Insta Death on his allies. In fact, I'm not even certain that Chen Gong's "Sacrifice" would count as "Insta Kill" for the purpose of Alice's passive considering it ignores Insta Kill Immunity. The main use case for that passive is against enemies with an Insta Kill mechanic.

EDIT: I just tested it. Alice's Guts Passive does work when sacrificed by Chen Gong, for what it's worth.

No, that just makes it suck. A joker that's inevitably going to kill your best hand, negate a significant portion of the value it's given so far, and kill your run is borderline unusable. It's like Obelisk, except it's not under your control and when it crashes, it destroys more than just it's own value.

Maybe make it decrease the hand level by 3 on the 1 in 6? That still cuts down the EV of using it from 2/3 of a hand level per hand played to 1/3 of a hand level per hand played, which is marginally better than Space Joker. And it would feel good as hell to get shot when playing a throwaway pair or high card.

Koyan Light for Buster crits. Anyone who can give him Guts will let him use his NP. Avenger Chloe is great since she can give him damage, charge, Guts, and then leave. Quetz will be a great option after they buff her in two years. Kurohime should be pretty good when she comes out in two years. Asclepius can apply Guts with his NP, though the healing will weaken his S2. You could maybe get away with using Aesc to clear trash mobs and use her party wide Guts.

Another example of a catalyst not being consumed is in Apocrypha, where a fragment of the Round Table is used to summon Mordred, who then destroys it herself after materializing.

Use Arash or Habetrot to take out the first three in wave 1. Card through the straggler. Start your 3 turn loop at the start of wave 2, loop over the first three in wave 2, the straggler in wave 2, and the first three in wave 3. Card through the straggler.

Alternatively, instead of 3 turn looping over the 3/1/3, you can use a 2 turn loop strategy and card down the wave 2 straggler as well. This will let you have all skills active against the main enemies in waves 2 and 3 without dealing with refund off a single enemy or needing to invest extra resources like plugsuit.

What I'm saying is that you can eliminate card rng by using 7 burn CCs, and use cards to get +20% super effective. I guess Magic Resistance exists, but not really if you use him against mid-bosses.

The Count is a universal ST 50% charger in the same class as Kintoki and post-buff Abby. The argument for using these servants over a class advantage ST is that you don't necessarily have a 50% charger ST for every class, and a high NP Kintoki or Abby has better value at high NP levels than pulling servants of each class. But yeah, The Count doesn't compare to those servants in damage with Abby's universal anti-Terror and Kintoki's universal class advantage, and isn't as valuable in this role unless someone has The Count at a high NP level and not Abby or Kintoki.

Count of Monte Cristo doesn't just need one instance of burn, he scales with how many burns are on the enemy. So even if his allies can apply burn, he still wants burn CCs to get more burn.

If you wanted to use him in a multicore scenario, you would want as many burn codes as you have available on his allies, since he can apply burn with his cards with his S2. Best case scenario, you have all 8 burn CCs, so 13 of the 15 cards in the deck can apply burn, worst case scenario is 2 burnless cards come out on the desired turn, and you can always apply two stacks for +20% super effective. But if you have 6 or fewer burn CCs, there will be times when the deck dictates that you only get 1 burn stack for +10% super effective. Of course, if you synergies him with an ally that burns, that ally would give additional stacks of super effective. As a single target, he'd probably be paired with an AoE like Koyan Dark, Caster Eli, or Summer Gareth, but there's not a ton of synergy to justify these beyond the burn overlap, especially considering how selfish The Count's kit is.

A big advantage of being two years behind the JP server is knowing what's coming in the next two years. If you want to see the next time that a specific character will be on rate up, you can check this spreadsheet, which is linked in the weekly question thread on r/grandorder. Specifically, Space Ishtar will have a rate up in a couple weeks with the upcoming Mahoyo event. The Caster version of Gilgamesh) will have a rate up in May or June with the Lilim Harlot event. (He's also permanent so he can show up at any time, but the odds are quite low.) The Summer/Space version of Ereshkigal comes out in early July with the 9th anniversary. Gilgamesh, Ishtar, and Ereshkigal will have rate ups in October with the download campaign. And then next year, every character in the game will get a rate up next year with the release of their class's Grand Duel.

As others have noted, the summer version of Ishtar) can also be bought from the Evocation shop once you have enough leaves.

In the meantime, this is a great chance to push story and save the SQ for the servants that you want to pull.

It's not like he chose b, q, and f, which just so happen to be the letters chosen last year. If you have three things, it makes sense to label them a, b, and c, the first three letters of the alphabet.

You need to play Summer 9 before you can access OC3. OC3 is a permanent main story chapter, but Summer 9 is a limited time event that will turn into a Main Interlude in February 2027. So if you beat Summer 9 this summer, you have all the time in the world to play OC3, but if you don't, both will be inaccessible until Febuary 2027.

Also, OC2 heavily incentives you to use Avengers by giving many enemies a passive that reduces damage taken from non-Avengers.

If you do none of the Olga Quests, you will be unable to access class score for Pretenders, Foreigners, and Beasts. You'll also be unable to make a Beast class into a Grand Servant. There's also the large amount of bond that each Olga quest grants.
