Nerofest 2017: Boss Spartacus - Cu Solo [Fate Grand Order]

Nero Festival Redux Event. None of that Merlin/Waver buff stacking shit!
Nerofest 2017: Boss Spartacus - Cu Solo [Fate Grand Order]
GIIMICKS! Spartacus heals every turn, plus he gets a extra heal every 3 turns. (extra heal is from the timer buffs he has)
Thankfully he can't heal HP bars he's lost. Think of the HP bars as checkpoints
Most of your normal card damage will just be healed back. So use them to build NP or setup big crits. Also note that quick attacks put a healing debuff on Spartacus. They really help if you can't take out a HP bar in 1 turn. keep in mind if you are trying to take out a HP bra over 2 turns to time it with the delayed he buffs he has. It wil be hard to burst him down if it's a turn he gets the extra heal.
Also Spartacus gets a big buff vs characters with the "King" trait. Fear it.
For Cu speciically you need to save some burst damage for the last HP bar. He's HP pool is large enough that with the extra healing he gets you will have a hard time killing him over 2 turns even with Gae Bolg. I just used the default Mystic Code's Attack+ buff.

A dog killing a gladiator to the tune of Dirty Worker is something I didn't realize I needed until I got it.

[@bitrel07]

Cu still proving some true or very true facts over and over again: 1) He refuses to go down even with his allies defeated. 2) Never underestimate A Rank Battle Continuation. 3) Never underestimate B Rank Protection of Arrows when he has A Rank Battle Continuation. 4) Just because he has lower stats than his Teacher doesn't mean that he can't kick his opponent's butt. 5) Dogs don't play around. 6) Dogs aren't really your pets despite being friendly because they're so intimidating that you realize that you can't possibly 'survive' without a dog by your side. 7) This guy (Cu) has the best record of stalling out two of the most powerful Servants in the Stay Night series, one of which happens to be one of the strongest Servants in the whole franchise due to his arsenal of weapons while the other was literally stronger than nearly everyone in his own myth.

[@NoblePhantasmable]

bitrel07 Cu best bro indeed. Anyway who's the second guy? The one who have arsenal of weapons is gil tho

[@bitrel07]

NoblePhantasmable Heracles. Due to how ridiculous Nasu's ruling of everything in the Nasuverse being cannon, Carnival Phantasm is cannon as well. If you watched Episode 5 which I believe is Berserker's First Errand, Cu lasted for 2 hours against Berserker while everyone else including Gilgamesh only lasted for what could be said a minute if not less.

[@myspacebarbrokenevermindif9892]

bitrel07 cu actually fought Heracles in stay night as well (if you read VN and read Nasu's character profile on him you'd know this)

[@EC-hf8ui]

Lancer also didn't get to use his full power through the series due to the command seal kirei used, hell what will happen if he can fight without restriction

[@bitrel07]

Without Kirei restraining him, it's likely he would have solo'd everyone else bar Herc.

[@ChaoticHarmony431]

Solo Cu is best Cu

[@JohnPeacekeeper]

Spartacus is basically the King of Losers given his lore. He still loses to Cu.

[@77Yuki]

He's a king???

[@JohnPeacekeeper]

He's a leader of a rebellion that got roflstomped at the very least, but I was making a metaphor.

[@HonakoGreen]

Shots fired! Not sure Spartacus's healing can repair that burn.

[@77Yuki]

John Peacekeeper Ah okay

[@myspacebarbrokenevermindif9892]

Cu is not my only unit lol. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5XZn6lvo5Vse80

[@grey9916]

you think that will stop him

[@robinoflocksleyakafaceless3581]

Question time: Who is the hardest boss for you to solo? Is posible to solo with EMIYA? Should I ascend Cu or Proto Cu first? And also does the NA version stops after Septem?

[@HonakoGreen]

Emiya can solo a few bosses. But Emiya needs A LOT of good RNG. Most Emiya solo videos the uploader had to reset the stage over and over until they got very good RNG. Emiya is a great character but his toolkit is a bit limited for solo. A Good example is the "Emiya Herc solo". Everyone hypes that video but if Herc's A.I uses his evade skill a single time you have to reset the stage. You also have to crit at very specific times. For Nerofest i'd say Karna & Anjuna or Scath and Cu would be the hardest to solo. Quite a bit of nuance to soloing those fights. NA does indeed stop at Septem. But they are adding Okeanos in less than a week.

[@robinoflocksleyakafaceless3581]

Thank you for confirmation I almost tought that my game had a problem when it stoped after Septem. And what about ascending Proto Cu or Cu?

[@HonakoGreen]

They are both great units. They both have amazing survivability but Cu has the greater of the two. However Proto Cu has more DPS. And during teamplay the extra survivability of Cu sometimes goes to waste. However Proto Cu does not have his buff on NA yet so he is slightly worse there. Both are great 3 stars but overall Cu is a bit better. For both of them focus on leveling their 2nd skill above all else. lower it's cooldown has a huge impact on there performance. If you like them about the same i'd level Cu first, but if you like Proto Cu more the difference in their power is not great enough to warrant leveling Cu over him. Plus there are some setups Proto Cu is better for.

[@robinoflocksleyakafaceless3581]

Honako Green I think I will go with Cu now because of the fact that I have him a bit higher in lvl and Guts status is better than Proto Cu's first ability not a big diference as you say.

[@cipherwing4211]

[@alfredjoshuaprovido2121]

IGN: Josh added you if you don't mind, cause it's kinda rare to have a grailed Cu and Billy in my FL.

[@HonakoGreen]

I gotcha bro.

[@HonakoGreen]

Not seeing you on my list. 074,768.123 There is my code again just in case.

[@alfredjoshuaprovido2121]

Honako Green Oh sorry. So is ny request appearing now? IGN: Josh

[@Vince-A-N-O]

なんでそれ?!?! どうして?!?!

[@LoveKoSiVanessa]

Damn, because all of your Cu solo, now I want to Grail Cu and 10/10/10, but my grail is for kiyo and Passionlip.

[@HonakoGreen]

Have you grailed anyone else?

[@LoveKoSiVanessa]

Only Kiyohime, and 90 lip, planning to 100 lip since she is my first SR (excluding the free SR), do you think 90 cu is good? I already have TamaLancer as my main ST Lancer, but another ST survival lancer isn't gonna hurt me anyway, if you think 90 cu is enough, then i'll try to grail him too.

[@HonakoGreen]

I always enjoy seeing what people grail. Really cool aspect of the game. As for Cu. He's survival is second to none. He's DPS is a bit low however. But as I think my videos show clearly he is an amazing solo character and or backup if everyone else dies. Overall i'd say he is the best 3 star in the game and when grailed to 90 he is on par with the better 4 stars.

[@LoveKoSiVanessa]

I only grailed Kiyohime because I really love her and she is the one of two servant I really like in the game (the other is musashi), and my reason for grailing Lip is she is my first SR, for Cu I want to show some love for him because he also save my ass in Rashoumon Event but I'm kinda afraid that they might bring back Musashi before EoR 3. but if Musashi won't answer my call, Cu will receive his precious grail.

[@HonakoGreen]

Musahi will most likely come back soon. So yeah you might wanna wait.

[@thanapholwattanakul]

Absoluted Sweating When I first try only Cu and Shishou for DmG but...in the end i just use formation Kintoki Rider and Okita As Broken Promise... lel

[@HonakoGreen]

I want to see a level 100 Rider Kintoki with 10/10/10 skills... with the right Mystic Code and CE I bet he could solo a lot of bosses.

[@hafizmode4279]

I did it again

[@Jorge_Alvarado]

Wow

[@diegucho8840]

Cu's best friends are romulus and georgios

[@myspacebarbrokenevermindif9892]

Diegucho 8 no they aren't, he brings them along with him everywhere ti watch them get beat up so he can feel better about himself. Sick fuck!

[@gamerxanimexweeb]

fgo na noob here: How are you getting that crazy ass damage?

[@MayoiGaming]

do i need george and spartacus? or i can just use your servant to kill him? some advice

[@HonakoGreen]

George and Leonidas are just there to be killed off quickly so they don't take Cu's cards. They also buy a bit of time for cooldowns. The game forces you to bring 3 units. So if you have some units with taunt you can quickly throw away that is best. You can also put Cu in the very last slot of the team and do your best with the units you normally use and let him clean up what is left.

[@MayoiGaming]

cu and shishou quest is so hard i try like 20 times but i cant kill them they use evade skill so much what can i do?

[@HonakoGreen]

That was the hardest solo for me. Are going with a full team or are you trying to solo it with Cu? There is a whole bunch of nuance to soloing. Btw if you ever need to get a hold of me an di'm not replying it's because KZbin rarely seens me notifications. twitter.com/HonakoGreen If you have a twitter you can always get a hold of me that way.

[@MayoiGaming]

I try everything solo and full but i cant do anything i have 80lvl Sherlock 86lvl Kiyolancer 77lvl Assassin Shishou but none of them works because damn crits and evade :( Anyway thanks for information

[@HonakoGreen]

If you use a team a really good strat is on the first turn put some damage into Cu. He can't have his evade up until it's he's turn once. After that try to get Scath to at least half then buff up a AoE Saber (I used Mordred) and give them a way to avoid dodge skills. I used the Mystic Code Brilliant Summer. If you hurt Cu a decent bit and the Saber has the event CE you should kill them both at once. With Cu you need to use Gae Bolg on the enemy Cu turn 1 (get NP from the trash mobs) then switch to Scath. Get her low enough so Gae Bolg will kill her. If she dies to a NP Cu will switch targets with his normal cards. if you buster buster Cu with the Brilliant Summer Mystic Code you should be able to kill him.

[@JujuShinobi]

Threw 2 Grails onto Cu and maxed out his PfA, managed to finally defeat Gil. Albeit, not solo. But man, Cu's so good

[@HonakoGreen]

Awesome. rank 10 PfA is very a very noticeable upgrade from rank 1-9. On a side note my alt accounts Prototype Cu is now level 90... Soon™

[@ivandurega9336]

Hi can I add you please because I'm really struggling please dude

[@darkjosem13]

can someone explain me why this Cù has a golden symbol as if he was a 4* or superior? is this like another Cù or is it because of the grail?

[@DD-sk8kc]

darkjosem13 It's because of grail. You can give any servants a gold symbol with grail.

[@gerardreyes4796]

just sharing, You can kill this guy so easily with 1st Hassan w/ 200% damage from ce. Just make sure u put in the team mash and any servant with high c star drop rate like emiya assassin and you can easily kill this guy just make sure that your np is after his delayed recovery or 2 turns before

[@LeJinlong428]

Is prototype Cu able to be as strong as adult Cu

[@HonakoGreen]

If you max his dodge he can do really well. He is not quite as good at soloing but he is damn close. Proto Cu has very good survivability but it's less than Cu's. However Proto Cu has better burst damage. So he doesn't need to last as long. Even so Cu's extra survivability makes him a bit better at soloing.
