Posts from Fate/Grand Order

What’s there to discuss about Haven (in quotation marks) if it can be done in a dedicated thread for that purpose? They certainly set some tough conditions for newcomers with this event; did they think I wouldn't manage or wouldn't have time?

You managed to progress from Camelot to Lost Belts in just a few days? That's impressive. How did you manage such a feat of strength? Did you sell off your quartz? Or did you simply assemble an optimal team with the help of your friends?

Yes, I did use some quartz. Although I managed to complete the main arc with very little of it, I had to use it on almost every boss in Shimos. But by that point, it was too late to stop... In the end, I probably used around 15. However, that's a reasonable price for this essence.

In short, my experience so far can be characterized as follows:





Among others, I also like Nobunaga and Jeanne, but they still don't quite measure up to these two. Only recently did I realize how lucky I was with the GSSR; if some random character had dropped instead of the wonderful Murasaki, it would have been a disaster.

Wow, you leveled them up really fast...

And I just had a great experience playing with a stall team instead of my favorite buster gorillas.

And the most interesting part about the boss was left out of the game, unfortunately!

What's up with the latest acquisitions:

I don't like the first two versions, the third one (in the picture) is great, it would be even better if it didn't have those silly dogs.

I wanted Osaka-hime, but I got her. I don't like the character, plus versions 2 and 3 are bad (I didn't immediately notice the creepy shoes in the third one), but I like these swimsuits (which, of course, is no surprise to anyone), so, okay, let's consider it at least something good.

Free event character, not my style, but since I had to level her up anyway, she'll be there just in case I need to cut down some Lancers.


1. Looks like a theme purely for farming, it would be much more pleasant with max stats. 2. Seems okay. 3. Like the first one, but worse. 4. HP essence, effect with a random chance to proc. It's kind of hit or miss. 5. I got lucky (?) and maxed it out, the character is good, the art is good too, the effect is decent. 6. Free essence from the event, unlike the event servant, I like it.

I have a little over four hundred quartz left, I'll finish the remaining quests and wait for Raikou.

Wow, Kaleidoscope... it's my dream...
It not only helps with farming but also allows you to one-shot those bosses that don't have break bars.

Today, Arturia, with only one health point left, shouted ESCALIBURRRRR and completed the quest in the coliseum. It's so satisfying when your waifu carries you...

Although the battle lasted much longer than the one in my earlier post, unlike the first battle, it didn't feel drawn out or monotonous. On the contrary, almost every turn was filled with intense tension; I had to constantly rack my brains trying to outsmart Da Vinci in this chess match from the Heroes of Might and Magic universe. In total, I spent about an hour and a half, but this wasn't even my first attempt; previous attempts also took anywhere from half an hour to fifty minutes on average. But I felt a significant sense of satisfaction. For the first time, I had to resort to "cheats" – closing and restarting the application if it became clear during a turn that something was going wrong. However, in this case, I don't consider it shameful for two reasons:
1) I didn't want to replay the battle after spending 20 minutes and making a small mistake.
2) The element of randomness turns this beautiful chess game into a coin toss, so it needs to be eliminated, even if by using these "dishonest" methods.
I was also pleased to level up BB – before this, I considered her complete garbage, but here she suddenly turned out to be the best Dimension Door spellcaster among all possible options. It was nice to watch both her animation and the amusing NPC.

If it's not clear which battle I'm talking about, here is a link to the text version.

Ugh, I was 500 quartz short; I’ll have to farm more free and story quests.

There weren't any five-star servants, by the way, and besides these four copies, only these two dropped:
This mage.

And this no-name servant.


Well, if a second one isn't needed, then I can immediately burn the first one.

60 next, a copy of Murasaki, and this thing:

I got Merlin from the gacha, it took about 20 tickets and one grand prize, it came surprisingly easily. But the summer wives didn't come home :(
Also, I got a duplicate of Atlanta.
