Free SSR Summon? Permanent Special Ticket!

[@Khadroth]

This ticket is a permanent addition to the game! It's one time use, so choose wisely! It will be available starting with Anni 6 on NA (should be July 1st or 2nd). It includes all permanent units and story locked units up to a point (I believe Europa is the newest unit). So if you're wondering why one isn't here, it's probably too new. There is no time limit to use it, but because it has never changed there's no real advantage to delaying your choice. Thank you guys for watching as always and don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe! It really helps the channel out! Who will you be taking with your ticket?

Considering Quetz or Old Man Li out of the lot for Servants I still don't have, but I'm also considering Enkidu NP2

[@Vierdro]

the idea is cool and while it is awesome that even a new player could take immediate advantege of it, i think it would be a great idea and could even spice up anniversary's if they could renew it once a year with updated servants and give everyone something to lookforward too. It would still be great for both newer players and veterans.

[@Khadroth]

I certainly am glad I don't have to make this every year! 😂 But yes, I am surprised they don't treat it somewhat like the tutorial summon and refresh it.

I personally think a free quartz gssr would be more likely like each new year or anniversary a one time maybe a 45 to 60 free sq garanties 1 5star from the permanent and story lock servant. Would be a nice treat to f2p and a system that the higher up's would probably like

Yep its been in the works for awhile alongside another long form video.

[@willegan1823]

A note: Vlad's stackable Guts actually came before Heracles's, as Vlad's buff came during the Apocrypha rerun while Heracles's was in the fifth Anniversary several months later. You missed Nightingale's EoR-era Interlude improving her Noble Phantasm so it also reduces the enemies' attack, which addresses the crit issue you pointed out. Still not as good as Castoria, though. My pick will be either Vlad, Tamamo, or Ozymandias. If I end up rolling them all by then, we'll see what I need or want.

So torn between Cu Alter,Tesla,Enkidu the choice is even more difficult than the first ticket Update:Khad made an absolute solid argument for Tamamo and my desire to get all support Casters tickled and now I am set on her

[@tiagobelo4965]

I've gotten Enkidu from a summon, totally worth choosing, especially if you are strong on buster teams (I ain't, but it is what it is) he can absolutely demolish bosses, same goes for scathach (I've only ever used her as support) in case you want whatever may have divinity absolutely erased

[@DarkLord-od4hr]

Totally agree with the " pick your favorite ". I've covered my holes, so now I'm trying to get some old characters just for collection purposes and fun. Definitely 1st pick is quetzalcoatl, loved her on Babylonia and I do actually need a 5star single target rider, so far my riders have been aoe oriented and I've relied on alter eggs to clear certain challenges ( no wonder phh felt jealous!!! Lol!!). All of the are interesting servants, as you've talked about their usability in the game , the other aspect is enjoyment, who wouldn't want altera with her new uni coming on this year, or using karna with his lb4 costume aka Super Karna, Jeanne is also getting a new outfit . Mebd as well . Really exciting year before lb6 release on na. Also for those hard-core cu fans ,since every other cu is free, it's a very opportune moment to get all the cu in the game.

[@felipevaldivia9940]

While i support that aproach to the ticket, we can't deny that in terms of gameplay, Waver is the only real pick for those that don't have him, the guy enables almost every basic farming team, besides that, tama, the twins and sitonai are the only ones i consider choosing with tama being a must get

Undecided, I am between Osakabehime and Tamamo, I know Tamamo is better for arts but having her on JP and dropping her for servants like Xu Fu and Oberon each with one of her strengths (Damage for Oberon and Arts Support for Xu Fu). Hime is just for Waifu reasons I fell in love with her years ago and has escaped my grasp many times. Edit: I decided to YOLO roll for Hime during Akihabara and got blessed in my tenth ticket in the last double pull. I feel blessed and can now use the ticket on Tamamo

[@belleboni2016]

Are you waifu over gameplay or vice versa? If you tend towards waifu, then choose Osakabehime, nothing beats having servant that you really love. But for gameplay, Tamamo. Having Tamamo as your secondary support with Castoria is really great in CQ.

Problem is I may never use either. I have Skadi and Castoria and will hopefully get Miss Crane, Koyanskaya and Oberon meaning will have the best supports for Quick and Arts in there, speaking from experience as I have them in JP and many Arts servants that don't even come close to loop with Castoria now will be able to with Crane and Oberon.

[@OtakuDono]

When it comes to tickets I always focus on my favorites and give them priority if they are story locked because I may never get them... but I already have NP2 Sitonai and Tamamo, so I am satisfied on that front. From the permanent units... the last time I picked Tamamo, because she had been avoiding me since year 1 (especially infuriating because I had all the other Tamamos up to that point). It was a sub optimal pick because I didn't (and still don't) have Waver, but it made me happy after I got to use her on some daily farming comps where I don't need to 3 turn. Now then; having Tamamo, Castoria, Reines and Skadi, I am not sure if I really need Waver (inb4 I despair the next time I see the lotto comps where I need him). As for all the other units... I have no idea who do I NEED, since I have most roles covered one way or another. Sabers - I have NP2 Altera, and Mordred (and Shiki, but we don't talk about her). So if I need a buster looper at some point (if I get Koyan), I am covered. Archers - I already have Orion, but I sorta compensate with NP2 Jarcher, Nagiko on the SSR front and many SRs, but none of them is a buster looper, so I could pick Tesla or Napoleon. Lancers - From all the SSRs, I only have TamaLancer. If I had to pick among the others, I kinda want Bradamante just because I like her voice and personality (not to mention her NP)... not sure my Parvati can cover her role better at NP1 tho. As for Arts, I have my NP4 Melt, so I am fine... but I could pick Lartoria to have a buster looper or Enkidu for solo meme potential. Riders - I have NP2 Drake (bond 7)... but I could pick, Achilles as a stronger looper (since my Astolfo, S.Mordred are NP1... and no idea if NP5 Marie, S.Carmilla and S.Ishtar can loop)... BUT, then again, having Ozzy would have solved A LOT of problems with my Space Ishtar comps for the lottos. Casters - I already have Sanzang and Tamamo... I have Umu Caster as a buster looper, even if only at NP1... but all my non welfare Arts AOE casters are SRs, ungrailed and at NP1 or 2 at best, so having Anastasia or Scheherazade doesn't sound bad. Then again, the Waver dilema picks its head once again. No idea if having Castoria, Reines and Skadi is enough to say that I can confidently skip him. ASSassins - I have NP2 Jack, nuff said (and NP5 Carmilla as if that wasn't enough female killing). Old man Lee is cool and all, but sadly, I don't think I need him. Okkie could be a good addition, since support assassins are rare... * looks at Koyan in the horizon * Zerkers - I have Vlad, Xian Yu and Nightingale... could be helpful to get NP2 Vlad, and I have AOE zerkers covered with SRs and Musashi, so I have no need for more Xiang Yu... but I could use Cu Alter for solo memes where Herc is just not enough. Rulers - Having Jeanne would have been useful in a lot of CQs, but having Castoria, I just have a hard time picking her in her current state. Alter Egos - I already have NP2 Sitonia, and I don't think I will need NP3. Moon Cancer - I already have all the other options available, so unless she can loop better than NP2 Kiara or NP1 Summer BB, I see no reason to pick her. I can't see myself soloing with her either, and picking her only for a grail front at some point seems stupid. All that being said, who would you recommend me Khad? The last time I had a hard time picking between Tamamo and Waver, but now I am wondering if I even need Waver, if I should choose with the D of my heart (but since I already got Tamamo, the feel is not as strong) or if I should go with anything I may be lacking (but I have no idea what to prioritize).

[@lordtouchme77]

Personally if you are veteran/endgame players i recommend you to pick enkidu because he would be usefull in the upcoming lb 6 boss fight (you know who it is)

[@VentusvsVantias]

I'm wavering (no pun intended) between a 2nd Artoria copy or Vlad III. I'm leaning Artoria as we'll have Buster Looping at that point, but it would be nice to have an ST arts looper.

[@skycladobserver9246]

If you are planning on picking up Oberon and/or Koyanskaya then I'd say go for Artoria. Np2 Saber will hit VERY HARD in the upcoming meta...

[@rgameming9213]

If I were in your shoes, I'd personally pick up Vlad as I always value more SSRs > higher NP. Also, an np2 artoria won't nearly be as widely applicable as having a good ST looper. Plus the artoria option assumes you get Koyansakaya and Oberon for her looping, whereas Vlad really only needs Castoria, who herself has more applicability on her own than either of the other two supports have by themselves. But if you really want an NP2 Saber because you like Saber, then sure go ahead, but if you are doing it for "meta," just know that there are servants that can outdamage an NP2 Saber while at NP1, notably: Melusine, Kukulkan, Arjuna Alter, Maou Nobu.

[@LegendaryTalesandTrails]

Vlad is way better bro. Arts have all the best servants. He’s pretty broken with castoria & tamamo. Besides you only need one looper, but you need multiple boss killers, because that’s when the game gets hard.

[@temyar55]

I’m going for Lancer Artoria simply because she is hot. As far as Artemis goes I see her as a tanky crit Archer with lots of utility in her NP. She may do worse against males than Euryale but she can keep enemies at bay better. 100% drain, attack down to complement her big defense buff and a 46% crit buff between her 3rd skill and passive. Does she need help, yes. But she is still great and I’d argue is an overall better Archer than Euryale, just not a better male killer.

(excluding the healer itself)

[@jeksewnoleeray1020]

For the whole altera vs artoria argument it's not a case of oberon getting the most out of altera, you NEED oberon if you want altera to buster farm. Artoria is much more flexible with both CE choice and supports/MC (she can run kscope vitch vitch). However, if you plan on running exclusively VVO then altera is the best option in terms of damage.

I think an awesome buff for Mordred would either be to her first or third skill. First skill buff: Buster up %50 3 times 3 turns, ignore defense for 3 turns, except every time she attacks and successfully ignores defense she inflicts a buster down or something If her third skill gets buffed they should give her a guts, and when it’s popped she gets %20 charge and all of her cards become Buster or something like Artoria’s

[@MegaBichiX]

talking about buffs, something I would like for Jack instead of touching the first skill for more damage is change his third skill to remove debuffs to keep her damaging support slot

Damn, you're literally the same as me. I just started playing last year, and not too long after I start, I get that SSR ticket thing.

if we're talking about purely single target challenge quest potential enkidu completely shits on melusine and he did so even before his recent buff. doesn't matter if it's in a solo or team setting, his damage potential, survivability and niche's just made him the best single target lancer for like what 3 or 4 years at this point? the only thing melusine has going for her is castoria synergy but you can run enkidu, merlin, castoria and just shit on everything.

[@Zeke1460]

I still wouldn’t call Gil “ridiculous” on JP. I do think he’s in a decent spot right now but he could still be better in a lot of ways. I do very much appreciate the buff, he definitely needed it. But it only improves what he was already good at and leaves everything else in the dust. Yes his np damage in the VVO system is now towards the top of ssr aoe units again. He can even neutral loop to a decent extent (provided you’re up against enemies with the weak to enuma elish trait, which is most but not all servants.) His usability outside of 3t farming though hasn’t really been improved much. His facecards still suck (damage wise) since the only buff he has for them is a 21% atk buff. He still has no crit buffs, (despite his star gather rate buff. One of the very few remaining servants with this flaw.) He has no card-type buffs, he has no defense, healing, or survivability whatsoever, and his np gain buff is 100% useless in farming because buster doesn’t rely on any np gain. This np gain buff can be useful in rare cases during cqs but he’s rarely the best option for CQs anyway due to his lack of utility. He still has no debuff resistance or immunity, buff removal resist, pierce invul, or ignore defense, all of which are very useful and common gimmicks in CQs. I think he’s probably gonna get another buff in the future. Likely during the fsf collab. And it’s probably going to be on his second skill. If I were to choose what to give him on the second skill, it would be a 50% 3t crit buff, and a 3t pierce invul. This way he can get around bosses that love to spam hard defense skills, and he can have some decent damage outside of his np as well. Alternatively I’d switch out the 3t 50% crit buff for a buff that replaces his bond CE, maybe something like a 3t on-hit activate buff that raises his crit damage by 10% for 3 turns every time he hits.

[@paulct91]

1:07:18 - The Meta is usually the thing that matters most, Beserkers and Casters for farming unless uber held back, are some of the best units to use.

[@paulct91]

...especially since Miss Arabia has a skill rework +30% charge, NP upgrade, and skill boost that now allows party wide guts but, most of her interludes and Ascensions are locked behind much later Singularites... My first few summons were both Nightless City girls, they both ascend with late near Camelot or later singularity materials, which barred most of their later ascensions which locks you out of most skill and NP interludes.

[@thekingofcheese9005]

Just pointing out, Artoria's turn 3 NP damage in a Koyanskaya/Oberon system is still higher than Altera...by more than 20%. Altera can double up on the buffs, but Artoria gets to use Rising Mud Rain.

[@HitsujiMamoru]

Jeanne needs 3 more buffs unfortunately. In this day and age, her first and third skill are worthless, and her NP is super weak. IMO they need to make that star regen 15 or even 20 stars, and slap a NP charge/regen in there (preferably regen), even if the numbers are only 10%. As for her 3rd skill... I don't know. Maybe Arts resist down by 30% for 3 turns to the target? Make her work kinda like a reverse, Arts Amakusa. I'm curious what's your take on fellow man-in-arms Gilles Saber. He too has an outdated, barely functional kit (one skill is basically dead for him)

[@Khadroth]

Gilles lily has been pretty rough even since his release. It's really tough to come up with solutions for a low star unit designed around carding when there a plenty of high rarity carries that can hit far harder. A lot of low rarities work by virtue of being a nice combo of availability, party cost, and decent performance. The problem is carding comps are almost always either high octane RNG farming, difficult challenge solutions, or just someone fooling around to show whats possible. Most of the low star carders basically fall into that final group. I think its possible to make him better by focusing on that gimmick, but they need to give him some self-sustain skills in the form of crit capability and survival.

[@HitsujiMamoru]

@@Khadroth Wholefully agree! In my opinion, they absolutely need to address that Tactics: it's almost useless (and I say almost because one can argue KoyanLight exists now) and has zero purpose for himself, which is a shame when you realize his solo potential. One turn Guts (with decent HP refund) and 50% critical damage up for 3 turns could be good if one want him to become the budget solo unit he can become. Alternatively, targetable 2-tier Overcharge & 50% crit up could be decent. You would mostly use it on himself, but I can see scenarios where you would want to sacrifice crit potential to benefit from an ally's effect (like a more consistant star refund from Merlin, or more super-invul from Castoria, or a free 20-30% NP charge from Koyan) Obviously they need to address his NP too, and since I fear they will never remove that def down from him, having it decrease with OC (50% > 10%) might be an interesting and unique gimmick. It's all up to the devs now. I have little faith in them ever buffing such a minor Servant but who knows.

2:01:14 I think you’re missing the point. Nightingale is specifically about throwing beds in weird solo challenges. Especially against human enemies. She was my first banner SSR when america came out, did a yolo 10 roll back before I understood what limited banners were even though I’d been playing for nearly a year at that point. So I’m biased

[@kamenlobster]

Wish genshin had a content creator like you that goes the extra mile

[@Khadroth]

Thank you! Glad to know you appreciate the content! 🙏

[@chironthecuddley6144]

I'm probably gonna go with Sitonai, since I have a NP2 Berserker Musashi for most things and I want more of the extra classes.

[@cmversailles]

It's a longshot, but with Nightingale I'm wondering if she can have a class switch her NP like Jekyll. I feel like that would solve a lot her problems.

[@Kurorok611]

Going Sitonai. As one of the servants I never got when hitting the pity limit before it was a thing during Oniland event.. before was Achilles in Apocrypha event....

[@kiwirgerahanu7827]

Im torn inbetween picking Cu or Vlad I think Vlad is universally better than Cu since i do have Herc bond 10 as well, but Cu have the prestige of being a story-locked servant and pretty hard to come by Really hard choice between both of them

[@generalkenobi1972]

They could have done more with Lancer Artoria's Mana Burst, i hope they buff her charisma rather than her NP, honestly i think she needs that more, pump up her numbers give her star absorb or crit up (make use of that double quick deck)

[@alexandrekayotsu]

I was thinking of taking Waver, but due to Castoria being my only support I'm going to take Tamamo. Sidonai looks interesting too, but you convinced me about the supports.

[@TsukabuNosoratori2]

I have both Castoria and Tamomo- I can safely say they work pretty well together if you go that route.

[@crypto66]

I had no SSR Zerk. I had originally planned on Jack--on the contingency that I would've been spooked by literally _anyone_ by then--but eventually chose Vlad. Gotta say that he's amazing after all the buffs. His year 2 animations and bobble-head sprite are jarring though.

[@rainhos11]

I am going for nikola tesla since the only good AoE Archer I have is Emiya and he is only NP1. Tesla doesn't get talked about enough, he is really strong and since he is story locked it is a no brainer for me.

[@sohantula2154]

I went for him as well🎉

[@thepureheartofdark]

I'll go for Vlad, no questions asked. I need a boss killer for many classes and he covers all but Foreigners. I already have Waver, Tamamo and Castoria with maxed skills to support him. I'll also see if I roll for another copy this or next years white day.

[@Gomeshock]

I'm between Lartoria, Medb, and Old Li. At this point in my account, it's more for collection reasons since I already have Eresh NP2, Ozy NP2, and Jack NP2. Since they'd all be NP1 no matter who I get, Li has a slight gameplay edge since he's Arts ST. Lartoria does have a rate up with the Camelot GF, but that's way too close to LB6 to say it's worth rolling there. Medb could have a reverse harem fantasy with the three Cu's so the My Room lines would be funny. Decisions, decisions.

[@burukani]

I'm trouble between Waver or Tamamo. Thanks to you i will pick Tamamo, she sound useful and cute.

[@Saplingbat]

I'll probably end up taking either Mebd or Cu Alter. I have basically every one else and all the other story lockeds I either already have by luck, or don't really care.

[@MuhammadKharismawan]

We were so surprised by all the 5* released on jp anniv last year that everyone forgot Lasangle doesn't give us any more ticket last year.

[@Pomho1812]

The smart choice for me would be Waver since the only supports I can think of having are Miyu and Medea Lilly since I only started last july, but i really want to get both Lancer Altria and her Alter one day ...

[@kazumakariama]

Probably gonna go Sanzang because after spending money on her banner years ago and never getting her, i think this is her calling. Or Lartoria because I have bunny Lartoria at NP2 but uh... Shes good waifu.

[@merlinswife]

thank you for the video! as for me, i've been trying to figure out who to get for months rofl. i kind of want arjuna for husbando purposes and he's always evaded me on cbc campaigns. same with jinako. i'm a day-one player and have a robust acct with a lot of good welfares, too, so most of the options are just np2+ or for husbando/waifu collecting 😅

[@mephistophelesdearchon9870]

So, now that they’ve announced that Mordred’s getting a buff to her Mana Burst to make it 3-turns, how does it feel like being hit with the gift of prophecy?

[@kuzunohaxiv7912]

I like Jack so i'm picking Jack

[@spectacularrobotToys]

I had to pick Vaver to make the logicial decision last time. Now I deserve to do what i want and pick the king. Artoria! (Saber)

[@rellsyk6358]

Last year i picked Waver, he helped me a lot (during 1 or 2 months i think) i combined his usefulness with Skadi, then Castoria came and he is there on my Chaldea free of the farming hell XD This year I'm going to pick Tamamo, not only because i love her, but also due all the help she gonna provides to my party during cqs.

[@rellsyk6358]

@Kuurokuro She did spook me during my summer Kiara rolls. NP5 Muramasa is amazing, if you have Castoria then you have a great DPS/Farmer unit right there, but if you want to go for Seiba because she's your waifu, then that's ok. Tamamo provides Arts up, heal and Np damage in her kit, her NP keeps you alive by healing you, increase the np gauge and also reduce the cool down of your party skills by one, she's well known for being a great stall unit along with Castoria, add a Arts DPS to the mix and you'll get the "you'll never take damage" team.

[@CrowQQ]

I have odd situation where I don't really feel any of the servants on list. There are few that are on "eh I could use a servant X type Y" and no really exciting NP2-5s that would spark joy . I could pick vlad for arts meta but again ehhhh the thought does not spark joy. No real "plot" or "backstory" relevant servants to fawn over either. Maybe I'll just get Artoria the seibah original cos my dedicated and only aoe saber is lvl 90 jason (all the FP rolls and lily just keeps dodging me lmao)... and I was planning to roll for upcoming buster suite (fox>morgan>fairyboy). eh I have time to think about it. There is no rush.

[@darkarohrito6422]

that mordred predict is awesome

[@josevera8209]

Khad's propaganda aside, I decided to go for Lartoria as soon as this ticket got announced on JP. As a veteran player I already have the most "meta" Servants on this list so I will go for a Story Locked that I like but never rolled for.

[@Khadroth]

So you're saying it worked.. 😉

[@azraelfresnedo8247]

I am so conflicted. I have been playing for around a year and a half and I have had the poopiest luck when rolling or GSRing for supports. I am caught up in the story but I still have no support. I am wondering whether I should choose Tamamo or Waver........but, I am saving quartz for rolling for Castoria, Koyanskaya, Oberon so now I don't know if that would be efficient? I definitely don't have enough SQ for all 3. I will probably hold off on Koya since she will have future banners so I am probably rolling for Castoria or Oberon for sure. But that leaves me with this...................who should I choose from this banner? I don't have a good single target Caster. Maybe Sanzang? Or should I still go for the supports to have the variety? BWAH!!!!

[@Sven-wu2ek]

Not sure if this is answered in the video, and I can’t find anything solid online, but does using the ticket give servant coins even if the servant is already summoned? Because this will influence my choice extensively. If it does give coins I’ll pick Cu alter to finish him off at np5, my one and only 5 star above np2, and that will make him lv 120 and the first 2 appends which for me is complete and I won’t have to roll a final copy. If it doesn’t then that makes it a bit tougher but I’ll probably go for quetz or ozy.

[@Khadroth]

Yes it does give you servant coins even if you already have the servant. What it does not give if I remember correctly is a USO.

[@Sven-wu2ek]

@@Khadroth awesome thank you.

[@MadRaptorGaming]

I have a Level 120 Jack the Ripper. 2000/2000 in both attack and hp. 500 bonus attack on all of her command cards, except Buster which I am working on. Bond Level 15 All 3 main skills at 10. All 3 append skills unlocked with 2 at 10 and I just need tiny bells to get the last one. NP5 With a Level 100 Black Grail, 2 Skadis, and using a Plugsuit to bring in my NP5 Castoria with her Bond CE for extra boost... Jack can do some DISGUSTING levels of damage.

[@MagicalGirlContractor]

Debating on getting NP2 Napoleon (His NP Dmg falls short so many times when farming even despite being maxed...), NP1 Lion King (love the Storm King but closest we get) or... Jeanne. She was the servant I originally wanted the most back when France Singularity was fresh news, and to this day I've never gotten her... Not sure who to get.

[@CrocAndSocks]

I'm that one person who can't wait for it(and probably don't know when It will get released) I just wanna NP5 my lil child Jack the ripper

[@alanvaladez559]

Having a hard time chosing who to take, not because I'm new or need to fill voids, but because I already got many of those and those few I don't have I either have a replacement (Got Reines instead of Waver for example), or I just don't like them (Looking at you Tesla). Granted, I could upgrade my Tamamo to NP3 or even Jeanne to NP5 but I could also just go and pick up someone new like Cu, Quetz or Sche. I do have adequate replacements for all of them in terms of what they do as well btw xD Btw...I'm in the exact same boat with this year's GSSR banners xD Only two options give me at least a higher than 20% chance to get someone new xD

[@zero20ab]

I would always lean towards story locked ones as low as the spook rate is, it's still not 0. But do remember always choose your favorite meta is secondary.

[@t0140]

Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to get spooked by pre-buffed tesla, Enkidu and altera. It's like they're saying "trust us we know".

[@kazukiyomeyer2227]

If there's anyone who's considering to get Arjuna, don't. I got him as my first SSR in the game and he just felt super underwhelming even in the singularities. And if you're looking for someone to use for farming, don't bother. Arash is better.

[@Kaos9696]

I would say that unless you have 2 or more 50 charge supports, you should pick Waver. Plugsuit means you get to use 3 supports at minimum, so you need at least 2 supports +friend support.

[@alexchan4819]

For a new player simply Waver But after watching the Babylonia anime the only correct answer is Quetz.

[@TheLonelyMoon]

chose lartoria on jp and im kind of regretting and also not regretting one hand she's not the sharpest ool in the shed and i just use np2 britomart now, but at the same time she's story locked, love her design, more importantly she's artoria

[@dark_rit]

Crazy that you mention never getting spooked by Tamamo. For me, I got her and Beni-Enma in one multi, next month she spooked me on some other banner. I don't mind the NP2 at least, it's handy somewhat and the up to 200% charge is very nice for Tamamo. My roster is pretty set, may just go for an NP level on Sitonai or OG Artoria. Sitonai would be the better pick being only NP1 and storylocked because storylocked servants are so annoying to get since story banner hasn't been reworked basically ever.

[@bloody5081]

i'm 100% picking Tesla, because if there's one big thing missing on my NA account, than that would be an aoe SSR archer. The only SSR archers which i have are Super Orion and Summer Artoria... which sucks. Meanwhile i have 6 Sabers (Muramasa, Ibuki, NP3 Musashi, Okita, Shiki, Artoria), 4 Lancers (Romulus, Ereshkigal, NP3 Karna, Bradamante), 5 Casters (Castoria, Merlin, Skadi, Waver, Sanzang), 3 Assasins (Kama, Jack, Semiramis), 6 Berserkers (NP2 Summer Musashi, Arjuna Alt., MHX, Vlad III, Kintoki, NP3 Raikou), 9 Extras (QSH, NP2 Space Ishtar, DK Nobunaga, Kingprotea, Kiara, Summer Kiara, BB, Yang Guifei, Hokusai) and .... 1 Rider (Medb), but Medb is the only rider I care about anyway.

[@hassanlumna233]

I need help.. I'm pulling for Castoria and Oberon It's guaranteed.. I'm skipping Konyanskaya since she's coming back in 6 months.. I want Lancertoria but others told me I need Waver for meta.. do I really need it if I'm pulling for Castoria and Oberon?

[@Khadroth]

The concept is that you should have 3 50% charge supports. But you don't have to have them right away. There's just moments you might find yourself stuggling with a node, so if you want to wait until Koyan 6 months after to pick up your 3rd, that's fine. Just understand it won't be the easiest path.

[@h-ash_tagblast8318]

So my first choice was waver but I got him now and i wanted Ozzy and i got him too, Vlad, also checks out so who do i choose for it's worth

Out of the units listed only Cuzilla, Medb and Quetz are np1 for me. Leaning Quetz or Medb but no rush on decision for now. I feel Medb would be best though since i have Ozy high np from spooks so damage competition for Quetz would be rough (Medb at least has her niche)

Lartoria, Tesla, and Xiang Yu are my options for new units. Not that upgrading a DPSes' NP level would be a bad thing either. Waver, Tamamo, Nightingale, and Jeanne are supports so don't need an extra level... Vlad and Sitonai are the only NP5s off this list, and I don't believe you can get a USO from this special summon... But everyone else is still fair game.

Picked up Lartoria off her Camelot Grail Front banner, spooked by Xiang Yu during the summer rerun, meaning I'm down to Tesla for a new unit. I'm thinking I'll pick a story-locked DPS NP upgrade.
