the term saracen was before used to any nomadic and/or muslim folk. the only place in russia where mountain muslim nomads(bashqort people or how russians call them - bashkir) live is ural mountains area. btw Mandricardo is from nearby area, since he's tatar, and tatars are the closest relatives of bashqort folk.

@flatsnark25168 ай бұрын
I think if they ever buff George to give him even just a little bit of party support, Servants with massive damage mods like Dobrynya will become a lot better. Even now, the 80% damage mod for 3 turns is pretty worth it. Just in general, I think this Servant is fairly underrated as a boss-killer. Putting aside her damage mods, her combination of buffs give her really good face cards and crits, especially on her NP turn due to both the buster buff and defense down stacking for the rest of your chain. The guts and debuff immune also help, and she's one of the few Riders with ignore defense that I think actually work well in boss fights. But I have her grailed on JP, so I'm really biased.

It was a state and later an amalgam of principalities in Eastern and Northern Europe from the late 9th to the mid-13th century. It was called that by 19th century Russian historians.

Starting to lose patience with FGO. DW/Lasengle is just incompetent at this point. They flubbed their launch of the Sakura Taisen mobile game, so I'm leaning more towards the idea that FGO, as a game, is only as popular as it is because of the Fate franchise. The only inch I'll concede to that is that the Sakura Taisen game had Hideo Baba involved. The gacha rates are terrible, handout SQ is scarce to nonexistent, and the game mechanics are meh at most. CQ events are basically just puzzles, and content rollout has halted to a grind. Outside of seasonal events, story barely progresses in a year. They couldn't even be bothered to make discreet gacha pools for Servants and CEs - which, let's be honest, do the game a huge service even if they have to jack up the Servant gacha roll price. If Nasu partnered with any other company, we could have been in a better situation. If Yostar got involved, we'd be assured of fair gacha rates with decent-to-generous handouts, regular content updates, and L2D skins galore. If it were Mihoyo, Fate would be vastly more popular now due to Mihoyo's focus on marketing. But no, we're stuck with Aniplex, DW/Lasengle, and mf'n Sony with almost no experience when it comes to gacha RPG mobile games - and even if they did, they're either obscure or discontinued. Yostar understands that making characters accessible is a winning strat if the main thing to sell are in-game cosmetics. To date, I have spent almost an equal amount between FGO and Yostar (Azur Lane, Arknights, and Aether Gazer), but am more satisfied with my purchases from the latter. FGO of 2020, spent close to $200 during Christmas and got not a single Bradamante; Azur Lane, spent less than that, and now I get a rotation of L2D Skins on my home screen from my favored faction Iron Blood (all of them Oathed). Spent some amount on Arknights and am happy with Kirin Yato (after hitting the pity roll) and Surtr (from the GSSR tix); in AG, got my guaranteed functor and put it on my Jin-ei. That being said, I certainly hope Lasengle would do more. I think part of their failings is their lack of insight and their poorly designed data-collecting methods. Their surveys are poorly designed, that it doesn't really give them any useful insights as to how to improve their game.
