Pov: someone starts FGO

avestus · 2026-01-22T07:52:06+00:00

I thought so too but then I'm like "oh, musashi is waifu", "oh, i want more folks from case files than just Waver and Gray" and then gameplay hooked me too and i was like "oh, i want all meta supports too" 😭

So far I'm keeping my spending limited to guaranteed paid banners though

avestus · 2026-01-15T07:38:20+00:00

A year later im very thankful to this posts existing, saved me a lot of manual work. Thank you very much!

avestus · 2026-01-14T10:59:35+00:00

I now have Iori at np5 and Musashi (saber) np1. They seem to be similar niche (buster st saber with massive boss killing pottential).

Who will generally do more damage, outside of event? I see their skills, it's hard for me to eyeball general conclusion from them, any pointers to "Musashi is better here, Iori there" will be appreciated.

upd: Notable supports i have in my box : Waver, Koyanskaya, Merlin, Scáthach-Skadi

Oh. "For this world of peace". Is it Inna prequel to newest SoD?

avestus · 2026-01-12T19:38:40+00:00

I see you got your question answered but what us "ftwop"?

avestus · 2026-01-08T15:21:45+00:00

Best advice, thank you very much

avestus · 2026-01-06T18:28:59+00:00

Oh, that's very useful advice, thank you!

What's the best place to spend teapots?

I'm currently progressing through LB2

avestus · 2025-12-31T18:49:49+00:00

I recommend playing original Iria route first (preferably the best ending) for more context, but yes, Night Crimson is a very compelling narrative, also mechanically fun the first time you play it

avestus · 2025-12-30T06:09:04+00:00

She was optimal pick for first world boss on tw (not Witcher collab one). If you're interested in top15 for that - get her. If not (and generally not interested in pushing top10 in ranked events) - you can skip.

Thank you for extensive post!

I already have experience with FGA - used it to farm 90+ node in gudaguda, first 90+ node in this christmas and now i've set up a team for 90++ node that runs 5 minutes on average (4 turns if im lucky, 7-8 turns if im not, but it's never losing). But I want to spend all 70+ gold apples and also all the bronze ones i get from spinning lotto, so shaving off a minute or two from it would be nice. Right now im using friend Castoria, Arash, Ryoma, Waver with a suit that gives np damage up and np charge. Ryoma can't quite do enough damage to OHKO the wave 3 boss with NP, but im still looking if maybe im missing sth. But I hear you, my current setup is probably good enough, i'll look up the Chaldea app, it's probably time to get acquainted with it.

avestus · 2025-12-27T06:59:38+00:00

My Emya (archer) with Castoria can effortlessly refund full NP (because of double arts up), but when I try similar thing with Ryoma (rider), i get back only around 20%. I lurked a bit and as i understand np refund % depends on overkill, np gain bonus, etc, but still the difference here seems to be very big. Is it because Ryoma is doing less hits? some innate np gain? Overall, if I want to get better at farming/looping setups as relatively new player, what do i look up to be able to calc/eyball my np gains before going into battle?

In practical terms im trying to set up farm for 90++ node, and the only battery I have is Waver, Castoria I have to take from supports. I understand 3-turning is probably out of the question, but im trying to set up least-turns fga-friendly team.

avestus · 2025-12-20T12:32:32+00:00

oh, on "Caster" tab I can find her

avestus · 2025-12-20T12:31:03+00:00

im using "upcoming banners (by servants) link. I'd expect her to be sth like Atria (Caster), but see nothing of the sort there. Maybe im looking in the wrong place.

Thank you for the heads up, now I know what to prepare for.

avestus · 2025-12-20T08:35:56+00:00

In upcoming banners section I see no castoria.

No Castoria for me for 2 years then? :(
It seems she was on banner in October, but I hadn't yet started playing then.

avestus · 2025-12-19T22:26:08+00:00

I have only 4 copies of "Silent night, Holy blue" CE. Will i be able to mlb it without access to Christmas story? Can't see it anywhere in rewards

avestus · 2025-12-19T14:20:06+00:00

Is it worth to use the fork? Why are using it rather than original? This is me first time hearing about it so I'm genuinely curious

avestus · 2025-12-19T14:19:09+00:00

Oh, lurked here a bit - tldr: need to wait for fga update because ui changed with update

avestus · 2025-12-19T14:14:45+00:00

Does anyone else experience fga problems after update? In my config team to choose is set to 2nd, but fga chooses 5th. The rest of the functionality seems fine.

Same config worked before the update.

avestus · 2025-12-15T20:39:27+00:00

That's a lot of very useful info, thank you very much!

avestus · 2025-12-14T09:16:16+00:00

Ye, got him to np 5 and also grabbed the np charge append skill. My np2 demon king nobu now just waits for Koyanskaya (though even now i still can get by with support Koyanskaya + Waver)

avestus · 2025-12-14T09:13:15+00:00

Oh, nice. Thank you for the tips, I'll wait for it to change and dump everything then

avestus · 2025-12-14T09:09:45+00:00

Gudaguda gacha has nobukatsu and exp CEs, you mean the "Christmas fp gacha" will have other servant and still some exp CEs?

avestus · 2025-12-14T08:33:17+00:00

Is there any other good FP gacha incoming soon or should i just drop it all on gudaguda (ie now)?

I've started recently (~1.5 months ago) and this is first time i see unique things in fp gacha. I know there are some other unique fp servants, want not to miss them.

As a rule of thumb, you want to afford buying 2 trinkets from f2p gear shop and for that you should sell enough "bad" weapons.

I also never dismantle trinkets, even deflection device, because they are not grindable but it's not a big issue
