FGO Farming | Getting Started with the FGA App

[@Whisper1292]

I just decided to finally automate my lottery runs and this app has made it so much easier. I really appreciate how simple it is to set up and how many different optimization options there are.

[@GokuMeister]

This app is a absolute lifechanger for this game but its still sad that DW still has not implemented a ingame auto system for a game with such repetetiv and massiv grinding

[@SPDFmk1]

I can't thank you enough for this. I remember ages ago how I thought of an app that could recognize cards and play for you and you made that for all of us... Thanks from the bottom of my hearth

[@setsunart9629]

it has come out for 2 years!?god if I could knew that such treasure do exists a little earlier...

[@Leroset]

Thank you so much! You are saving my life during this gilfest. You are a hero! Also, good taste in having Makise Kurisu as your avatar. :) Edit: I managed to figure out how to use the support image maker to create custom preferred CEs for gilfest. Yet another great feature!

[@reconman763]

But there's already an Event Bonus Filter in FGO, no need to create CE images.

[@TheGamefreak346]

Loving these updates. Cleared 300 boxes this Gilfest without it impacting my daily productivity; definitely useful. I especially appreciate the incorporation of the refill/repeat/run limiter options into the script start UI. I was using this app last year as well, and while it was still useful, it was somewhat frustrating to have to back out into a separate app every time I wanted to change those settings (usually when switching from Apples to SQ refills). Great work on this. :)

[@Pandoragod14th]

I feel like a caveman after using this app. Tks for enlightenment experience, Reconman

[@rameshjakhar1105]

today i downloaded Fga for the first time for nerofest tbh in the start i was scared thinking it's going to be really complicated stuff but your video helped a lot and app worked perfectly in the first try thank you very much for the explanation

[@lokrj]

I was holding on before getting into this because it looked complicated, but i had to learn it today because I'd go insane farming the lottery event manually. Fortunately, learning and using it aren't hard like what i initially thought. Now like the other comment said, i wouldn't have to worry about carpal tunnel syndrome loooool

[@EarthGuard]

I just gave up doing manually after playing for 6 years. This is really such a blessing that I can't thank enough.

[@shirotakagami6537]

Hey thanks man this app is a life saver to me and i appreciate your work thanks so much and thanks for a detailed explanation

[@KnakuanaRka]

Thank you, this has been so helpful with cleaning out the shop at the end of Battle in New York! It is definitely fiddly and sometimes misses inputs, but it’s still a lot easier than doing it manually.

[@davids674]

Thanks for the help bro. This app is so cool. I've heard about it for a while now and didn't bother, but actually seeing the game play itself just hits different.

[@deoalif1841]

Same here

[@merrychristmasreaper]

Managed to get this to work! Just took a bit of extra fiddling. 😌 You gotta kinda play around with it a bit, and then learn to notation, but it becomes real simple to sort if folks got an hour or two to just sit with it. And considering it's already saved me two-three hours of monotonous grinding? Highly recommend.

Same instaled it, configured Melusine/koyan/oberon setup and spishtar/castoria setup in less than 10 minutes and im ready for Nerofest and Summer

[@HungVu-pw6tr]

I can't click on play button when I setup like you and change into game screen. I think that is a problem of this app

[@reconman763]

It's in the battle config selection window and allows you to specify the number of CE Drops.

[@tribopower]

Thank you so much for this man, it really helps, one suggestion, just like we can add servants/CE's maybe add an option to add different drops, for instances I wanna farm Secret Gem of Caster (we really need alot of them if you think about it ) and it tould be nice to have a counter to see how many I got, it would also help for future drops they implement.

[@DFvicio]

Anybody having trouble making it work on JP ? It works perfectly in NA, but doesn't do anything on JP, the debug seems all over the place too.

Since it simulate your touch, obviously you need to run it while the FGO is in full screen

[@timescwere5919]

Ya saved a lot of my future time, brother, thanks!

[@Mana_Transfer]

Can't believe I only JUST discovered this, but it's something i've wanted ever since the beginning and have been using to great effect in the ongoing Apoc raid! Just one question though: Will enabling 'Stop on CE GET' in Battle options for example halt the app right as a servant hits a new bond lvl? Because I personally like screenshotting that sort of stuff especially if bond 10, so for me there's no point if it skips past that and stops at the bond CE specifically

[@reconman763]

FGA rapidly taps during the bond point screen so no, there's currently no feature to stop there.

[@Mana_Transfer]

@@reconman763 Ok good to know because up till now i've set it to only a run certain number of times before hitting a new bond lvl. Either way thanks for the reply
