They Buffed Achilles [FGO]

[@HonakoGreen]

The confuse effect is mostly bad, It's to RNG if you actually want to skill seal and a lot of the time you don't want to skill seal. However the rest of the buff is so powerful it's a massive net gain

[@watashielshaeddo5454]

imagine lb 7 boss being programmed to cleanse as soon there is a debuff on them wasting them 1 move after using achilles np. That would be hilarious.

[@ShiraFuyu2022]

the Confusion is whatever, the Crit Buff on the other hand, combine this with the one he already has, he's running with 80% Crit Damage Buff for any of his Cards. Pretty good especially since he's competent at making stars even without NP

[@rancorrage5646]

And that's assuming he isn't looping NPs. Even in a normal DPS set up he can easily NP twice in three turns. In a double Skadi set-up, he's getting 180% crit damage up, plus 200% Quick Crit Up.

[@enkidu1623]

Headcanon: his np applies confusion cuz Xanthus starts talking shit mid charge and the enemies are like "wtf?"

[@Ohimeshinso]

Makes sense.

[@Cr3zant]

The enemies get confused at the idea that the devs thought he needed a buff.

[@TheCoolguymanly]

While he definitely didn’t need one as hard as some obvious servants, he had largely fallen behind most Riders these days. His skills are all solid but the damage was pretty lacking and even then you have to own both Skadi’s to hit the levels other Riders hit way easier. This is a very nice buff for him that brings him up to the level of other Riders, and it’s an even bigger boon for players since he’s a permanent not a limited!

[@t_raywen8750]

He definitely needed that damage up on his np. The other things are noice additional buffs, that crit buff is great

[@MikuOlliet]

He definitely needed it at this point, like Taikoubou before this buff had more damage alongside more utility. Comparing them as AoE Quick Riders.

[@Founder_of_Morgans_Fanclub]

He definitely needed a buff lmao, his NP damage was depressing

[@krismarshall3803]

I don't get how people keep on saying this....his np sucked ass. It was too basic and pre rank up you REALLY needed np4+ just for him to loop on neutral. Literally Rider Tai was just new age Achilles, but better in damage and npgain.

[@mysticpumpkin8520]

Yeah boy!!!!! Best Husbo of apocrypha got his long overdue buff!!!! And its very good. Just like Cú, he certainly benefics a lot from the rainbow chains, and now even more I am so ready to roll for him in Jp, and in 2 years in NA he will be more than ready

[@ivanbluecool]

Penth in fgo:I'm stronger than acchiles now. Fgo:ok we'll buff him to even it up. Penth:......wait that's against the rules. ACCCCHIILLLES

[@mysticpumpkin8520]

The perks of being sane (and having a likeable personality) 1. Being a top tier husbando 2. Getting a very good and exploitable Np buff (specially with rainbow chains) No wonder Zeus was so scaref of Achilles he reached for any excuse to kill him

[@mysticpumpkin8520]

@@ivanbluecool we said ANY excuse dont we? Curiously enough,is Hektor who had plans for Patroclus' corpse (parading him around Troy, dragging his corpse with a chariot, dismember him, hang his head on the walls of Troy, and throw the rest to the dogs,baring him from the underworld in the process) is so nasty and severe that Achilles' karmic vengeance looks light by comparison. But since Hektor was on Zeus side......... And Ovid's bias against the greeks for being rightfully expelled from a city for adultery are as subtle as a bag of bricks. Just look at Arachne and Medusa

[@ivanbluecool]

@@mysticpumpkin8520 that's why hector dying was cosmic justice as well as humiliation. Poor carrot for messed up by a guy in heat who got lucky. Anything Ovid that people use to try and say "Greek gods are evil" just makes me laugh

[@toony1232]

@@ivanbluecool Achilles didn't do that, it's from an account of much later and I think it wasn't even Ovid. But Penthesilea fans just can't take the L about the fact that they are pitting their shitty waifu against an objectively better and likeable character

These buffs are actually cool. Jason for the Garbo account to become a legend. Mochi is nice I like trait and damage mods this year being added and acchiles beasting especially now.

@@mochii813 well one step at a time. Would love if he could give an argo buff on one of his target skills to be a psedeo support unit. Now we just see green react and say sorry for not using Jason more.

[@toony1232]

Jason was never bad

[@ivanbluecool]

@@toony1232 ummm yes he was. I love Jason and knew of his story long before fate fans pretended to care in fgo(he was in ha and mentioned in fsn but nobody cares). His damage and survival is low on top of being a 1 star. This buff was what he needed to be better but it's only a start. He needs another buff one day to give him either np damage up or a harder survival/utility to really show his worth.

[@toony1232]

@@ivanbluecool Jason is great Arts spammer, you don't use him for prolonged fights, you use him to farm with Caster Arturia system. He is actually better at this than Summer Tomoe, a freaking SR but that was more on her having a demerit (though he still has more hits on his NP)

[@5starlinux812]

Lasagne I assume think the skill seal is a massive bonus on his NP, even though RNG skill seal may be the most detrimental debuff you can have.

[@Gabe-sp8ml]

Thank god they buffed him, The skill seal can even be a demerit sometimes but that crit buf can turn him into a monster, on a solo he can consistently have 150% crit by NP and then refunding Kinda nuts

The crit damage is great on a quick servant

If I had a nickel for every carrot related AoE Quick Rider with an RNG Skill Seal on their NP, I'd have less nickels than chat has thrown at green man.

Skill Seal would be better in most situations if it worked like Forget in SMT where the AI would still attempt to use a skill and waste its action.

Isn't skill seal kinda bad because it stops an enemy from wasting a turn buffing/debuffing and making them attack more often? Guess the Confusion wasn't a buff for Achilles, but a debuff on us. Also, 5:08 Ni Ni Ce Ce

[@yukio9723]

The damage up and crits are great but the confusion doesn't make sense

[@mysticpumpkin8520]

Maybe he will be like Ozymandias (got a buff that only works on sunlight, then his NP buff puts sunlight) and may get another buff in the near future that will atke advantage of the confusion

Confusion is probably related to the lore

Skill Seal and Taunt are actually a nice combo. It guarantees that all 3 actions of the enemy to be attack allowing for more guarenteed NP gain. I mean it's Confusion so fuck that i guess

@@monsieurromanbedlam5101 It would be amazing if his invul lasted for 3 attacks, then he could eat an entire turn of damage and refunding a lot But with just 2 times he will eat damage want it or not if the enemy is skill sealed, it makes it so hes more vulnerable specially against berserkers
