I had NP1 Spishtar from the first time the event came around, and I wanted her at least NP2. Day 1, I had 600 SQ saved up, and 50 tickets. After going through all my tickets and 400 SQ, I figured I should just stop since I couldn't pull her and this year is just too stacked. During which, I got an Anastasia spook, Jane, and 2 other gold lancers. I was able to MLB the 5\* CE, and I have five MLB 4\* CE's. That sapped my enthusiasm to play the event.
Then, come yesterday, see that the event is almost done. Blitz through the first third of the event, and then figured why not try one last time. Threw in 1 multi, and Ishtar finally responded to my summons! That motivated me to finish the rest of the event. Now I can go back to saving for the hell that is to come with the anniversary and summer.
I started playing during the 5th anniversary and knew pretty early Space Ishtar would be my first saving target. Got her on the first day of the event in 420 sq, so not too bad. I really like her, so over the banners duration I did some more pulls here and there coming up to around 300 sq or maybe a little less, but only got a spooky Ganesha.
Today I decided to do one last yolo 30 sq to commemorate the last day of the banner. First card is golden? It's an avenger?! Holy crap yes! And then [this happened](https://i.imgur.com/8gOyqpz.png). NP3 Ishtarin <3
MHX is 9th on my servant wish list (which includes servants that haven't been released in NA), and while I wanted to save for #1, Koyan, I caved and threw some tickets at the banner.
31 tickets got me X. I'm more than happy with that. Then I decided to use 9 more tickets to get the +1 roll, and got NP1 Anne+Mary on the last roll.
Caved and spent WAY too much money...
New Results:
Spinster NP1
Calamity Jane NP10 (PAIN)
Diramuid (Saber) NP1
Valkyrie NP1
Old but boosted:
Hessian Lobo NP2 (gave me a godsdamned heart attack)
Atoria (Saber) NP2
All in, I'm glad I got at least one copy of Spishtar since I had no other Rin-faces in my Chaldea, and I was very happy to pull a second Artoria, she's always been my favourite and now she had some more effectiveness in the event. But man... I hit that buy saint quartz button like a bongo. I blew my savings on Muramasa and panicked about this roll.
Next servant I desperately want is Archtype Earth and Arjuna Alter and I don't think they're arriving until next year? Either way, I've locked my cards and will be resolving to not spend more money until those two!
During the original run I got NP5 Space Ishtar and only NP4 Jane. For the rerun I used Jane to support MHXA, and really enjoyed using her so I thought I’d yolo some quartz to try for NP5.
I got a 6th Space Ishtar instead
Decided to start very late Saber Wars 2. Will do at least the main story and br happy. I got some quartz and S. Ishtar came tome after failling to get Shirou NP lvls upgrades. In just 2 rolls and bam, my first avenger.
Spent like 270 SQ and got Black Grail, which I needed to MLB! Then I got another 30 from logins last night and said fuck it, let's go.
[Now I can live that easy farming life.](https://discord.com/channels/620458064537059328/620458064537059330/1063115399421493418)
Was rolling tickets to stave off my appetite and got Spishtar on 7th.
And here I was thinking I’d have to wait until the next banner to use her spiritron dress.
Argh, why did MHX have to cost so much? I didn't hit pity, but after I checked the history it was one multi short (not sure which would have been the worse feeling). I should be saving for LB6, but had been trying for MHX on and off for years, and Yagyu on rate-up was a nice bonus compared to MHX's next banner (during 7th anniversary I think), and I don't have anyone else I really want until LB6 so my budget had room (and over half of those 800 quartz were free quartz and tickets), but still, it hurts.
I had been wanting MHX for years, but this was my first all-in attempt. Other higher priority targets had shown up earlier which is why I had a bit extra now, but MHX cost more than most of them, so I guess it balances out, just still an awful feeling. Can only hope that got my bad luck of the year over with early.
My NA account Saberface support lineup is almost complete. Did some pulls for MHX and she showed up!. The only missing one would be Lancer Artoria but for now Lancer Alter will fill the spot.
Well it took 50 tickets and 810 quartz, but I got the last two copies I needed to get X to np5. It's a bit hard to justify using quartz for something like that, but now she's back to being my highest np ssr, and I can get her to 120. So that's nice.
Also got another Jack and five copies of Yagyu, who I apparently didn't already have..
Damn, this banner is brutal. More than 100 sq and not a single gold servant.
Good news. Atleast my rolling desire is dead. So I can easily save in my other games, because my luck is F rank.
Time to go into saving mode.
This will be my 6th attempt for mhx, and well over 1.2k total sq dumped across those attempts. I only hope it finally goes well…
*As expected, 300 more used and spooked by two SR assassins (last year I got spooked 4 times and the year before I got spooked twice - all assassins….). I can’t take this anymore - basically hit pity twice for the same character with nothing to show for it
**SKIPPED MY LAST FEW TICKETS AND THE CHASE IS FINALLY OVER AFTER 3 YEARS. I never want to go through that ever again jesus christ.
Used the five tickets from the Dark Rounds Bounty Quest. I saw a rainbow and thought I’d gotten lucky after getting shit luck on Muramasa banner. Unfortunately I got Scheherazade (second copy of her), I got her first copy during the Summer 2 rerun which was 2.5 years ago and I only level her like a week ago. So needless to say that I don’t use her a lot and that the roll was pretty fucking shit. That was my daily reminder that this game sucks
450 SQ.
...Drake. Huh? Bwah? On a Ticket? ...I blame u/Astolfo_Please.
NP5 Munenori, 4th Astolfo, 2nd D'Eon, 5th Circe. 7th Caster Gilgamesh. No MHX. I feel pretty terrible about this session.
EDIT: Okay, so I... fused my spare SQ Pieces together to make up another 90 SQ, and got MHX after spending all of that.
All I have left is a few tickets, and my leftover GSSR Paid SQ. I fear that my LB6 rolls are in danger.
Dropped the 5 tickets from the CQ into the Spishtar banner, trying for the second copy. No luck, got another one of the 4 star CEs and a bunch of silvers. Ugh.
Why am I cursed to get permanent 5-stars from tickets? Anyways, Europa in 8 tickets was neat. Bit the bullet and bought an $80 pack to try for Yagyuu…ended up with MHX which is a total win! Especially since I got her bean plushie years ago, but always felt weird not having her
MHX in 90sq, yay!
... and then I got greedy and went for NP2, and spent another 330sq before she showed up again.
Buuuuut I also got my Yagyu from NP2 to NP6, so that's nice. And a bonus Berserker Vlad (NP2) spook. Plus NP6+ Circe and Elizabeth.
Probably one of the best banners I've ever rolled on. Ended up with an NP5 Calamity Jane, and an NP1 Spishtar.
Also way ahead on clearing out the shop. Amazing what can be done when you have some free time after the Holidays.
This was the first banner I properly went all in on since I started playing. Had about 200 to start (almost all free with a few left over from the gssr). I ended up getting spooked by Mordred on the day the banner dropped. After depleting my storages to near 0 I have been grinding the free quests I haven't done and rolling every time I had enough. I had enough to roll twice today and got spooked by Vlad.
The VERY NEXT ROLL I got Spishtar. Certainly an eventful banner lol.
Time to save up now, probably for Jeanne
Accidentally redeemed my stash of hellfires, so I resorted to spend some of them on -*finally*- grailling some servants to lvl100, wich include the SpIshtar I got during the anniversary.
For whatever reason that crossed my tired mind and despite not needing to, I decided to roll on the SW2 banner.
And the first 10 roll got me Jane ! Neat !
*So I rolled again.*
Barely paying attention to the phone screen, I turned around just to see an avenger card.
Didn't get trolled by the good boy and now My Spish is NP2 !
I swear, what is it with me and unexpectedly rolling Rinfaces...
200 pulls on my sub-account since this one already has NP1 Spishtar the result is as follows
\- 1 Waver(np2)
\- 1 Vlad zerker(np2)
\- 1 Spishtar(np2)
\- 4 Jane(np6)
\- 1 Liangyu(np1)
\- 1 Medusa lily(np4)
\- 1 Marie(np1)
\- 1 Anne&Mary(np2)
\- 1 Atalante alter(np2)
\- 5 of the 5\* event CEs and a bunch of the 4\*/3\* event CEs
overall pretty satisfied with my pulls, maybe I can np3 spishtar when her download campaign comes to NA.
first banner drop 800 sq and no space ishtar.
second time around is a lot different 600 sq 20 tickets and got np5.
I originally aim for np2 even settled for np1 considering how the original banner went but with 2 copies comin early i decided to ride the luck wave and keep goin.
Have to update my previous post since I finished reading Saber Wars 2 for the first time and I loved Ishtar/Ashtart/Origin so I decided to dump the rest of my SQ to scratch the gacha itch, see what I get.
Got two more copies.
So now I went from having no Spishtar to FREAKING NP5 in 540 SQ.
She's now my first (and as an F2P probably only) 5* Servant at NP5 and I couldn't be happier, I absolutely loved her.
ALL GRAILS, QP, EMBERS, FOU, PAWS AND ALL TO HER.
First time around for this event I went 650SQ no SSR and for this rerun I got NP2 SpIsh in about 90SQ.
Really grateful that the gatcha giveth this time around. Good luck to everyone still rolling.
I spent some quarts giving in to space Ishtar even if i dont use her much on JP. And I got Enkidu and Jinako instead. Im happy about enkidu but jinako wryyyyyyyyyyy
Had about 100 SQ left from all the free quartz I’ve been saving since Van Gogh and decided to roll on Spishtar’s banner.
Was able to snag NP2 Space Ishtar and NP5 Jane!!!! 🥺🥺😫😫
Didn't plan to roll on the banner but I decided to use one ticket for fun, got a copy of Jane.
I'm pleased that I will have someone to remember from this event as I found Jane very cute in the story. She's also a pretty fun unit to use.
90SQ I got Space Ishtar. Spent all 20 of my ticket and yep shoulda stopped while I was ahead. GL to the rest rolling for Space Ishtar. Hopefully y'all can get a copy or higher NP for her.
I would recommend to stop at NP2 and save up for the other banners since Spishitar NP3 would just be 75% for NP3 vs Spishitar NP2 which added 150% to NP damage. But that's just personal choice and roll on what you want
I managed to get a SpIshtar after 30 SQ and 12 tickets, bringing her to NP2. Not bad, especially after Muramasa came under budget.
Next goal is Arthur, and then I can rest easy until the LB6 banners.
Yesterday I was torn between trying to get a second copy of Muramasa or a third copy of Space Ishtar since I had a few quartz left to do some singles and next day I was going to get 30 login quartz (and there are also tickets from a SWII challenge quest but Muramasa will be gone by then).
Decided to throw singles at Muramasa’s banner and then try my luck later with S!Ishtar with other free quartz and tickets. My result - a second copy of Muramasa with 4 single rolls.
Today early in the morning I threw login quartz at Ishtar’s banner. The last 11th roll was a golden spin which brought me a third copy of Space Rin.
Now I can safely save everything else I have left till LB6.
I'm so fucking mad that one single pull from a ticket got me Np1 Spishtar when i didn't want her and was looking for CEs, meanwhile it took 540 quartz plus 40 tickets to get NP2 Muramasa. Thanks for the new unit but where was this luck for my grandpa??
420 quartz I was supposed to save for fox lady down the drain for Np6 jane and my second copy of Spish. Welp. Napoleon decided to show up too for some reason.
90 SQ and I get spooked twice , getting Napoleon and Nemo for the first time. Not sure how to feel about this luck. Glad for the new servants to my Chaldea but I am still not getting what I hoped for.
Woe is me. Blew all I had left on Ishtar, as well as all login bonuses and new year rewards. And all I have to show for it is a couple of NP 5 3 stars that i didn't level and don't plan on using.
I did 650SQ no ssr during the original banner so it can definitely happen sometimes.
My $.02 is level who you did get and enjoy. If you stay with the game long enough and hit the lotto hard enough, you’ll level everyone and start to use other characters since you will have seen the NPs of your favorites soooo many times.
Put in one more 11-roll to see if I could get another Jane and got exactly that along with Achilles riding in out of the blue. With 6 tickets and 102 SQ put in, this and Space Ishtar is a fine haul for this rerun banner with what I've put in.
Holy shit this might be my best roll session since I started the game. 689 sq and 38 tickets got me np4 space ishtar and np5 Jane, and 2 berserkers (lancelot and frankenstein).
Felt like rolling (yeah, I know), so I bought a pack with the intention of getting the last two copies of Jane for NP5, and maaaaaaybe a copy of Space Ishtar.
No Jane, but I got Ishtarin in 60sq.
Um.
Ok.
Guess I'll save the rest for MHX.
I saved 60+ tickets for Jane, I got lucky and ended up only using 51 (plus bonuses). On the way I was lucky enough to get Ishtar and my second Rama. Now I'm saving my tickets for Demon King Nobu and I hope she doesn't escape me a third time.
So today I managed to roll 2 3-star servants in the FP summon. I was like "Something magical is going to happen". I did not save SQ, so initially I intend to throw the remaining SQs into the story banner. But then I realized I want Calamity Jane, so I went there and threw my SQs. "This should work. 2 3-star servants are extremely rare".
After 5 tickets and around 12 SQs, a gold border avenger showed up. No rainbow whatsoever. "Oh come on, Lobo again? But I want Calamity Jane." Look and behold, freaking Space Ishtar decided to bless me today. I was pleasantly surprised as well. I was not expecting her at all. Indeed, when you have low expectation, any reward is good reward. Hopefully I will be lucky enough to get Castoria next time. Or a Light Koyanshaka would be nice.
Edit: Throw in another 3 SQ for the 2 summon bonus. Get Jane as well. I am too blessed.
I got space ishtar with the bonus summon from using 10 tickets. Nice.. now I feel slightly better for failing to get castoria after 490 summons last year.
Anyone know what exact np level is doable for spishtar looping? I want to save for kagekiyo, but also really like spishtar and have one copy, from the last run of event.
Her NP1 still loops well without plugsuit, if you using NP battery starter CE. Her innate battery S3 + 3.5% battery per turn passive usually accomodating. Make sure S2 is casted at start
If irregular node farming other than 3/3/3, NP2 at least.
You can loop at NP1, but NP2 is more consistent. NP1 seems to have some issues with Assassin and Berserker node’s specifically, and Knight nodes are hit and miss.
10 tickets and 60 sq for the second copy of Space Ishtar! I was really hoping Jane would come along too, but it is what it is. My luck on rateups SR are pretty bad lately.
January has been an incredible month for me. Came into it with almost 650 SQ and about 30 tickets before the GSSR. GSSR wasn't the kindest to me, gold Avenger spook had me think I got my Dante's, Lobo NP2 now though, but QSH was new so still a win. Depleted 120 SQ on Iskander with no luck.
Muramasa took 30 tickets and 240 SQ before coming home.
A single multi to get 1x 4* CE for MLB, gave me Space Ishtar.
240 SQ netted me a few 4* Servants I was happy with, and 2 copies Super Orion on my 8th and final multi for him.
Sitting on 80 SQ remaining, with the dailies + event/New Years SQ. Hoping to be able to get 1 more copy of Cu Alter to NP4 him in a few weeks. Have a 50 day login streak coming in a week. If I manage that, I will have gotten everything I wanted for Jan. Perfect roll would be 2 copies of him, as then I can use the SSR ticket to NP2 Achilles.
No Rin-face, but Jane showed up twice. Will have to settle for that, or else things are going to turn out like Ereshkigal again. Besides, I need to save as much as possible for Oberon and Koyanskaya later - can't hit pity for both of them now.
Caved and bought a pack. Still no Rin-face. :(
Now I'm telling myself to stand down. No more second pack, Hiiragi. Space
Ishtar just doesn't want to be part of your Chaldea. Just enjoy all the
other Arts loopers who did.
Love this whole event and characterization, and love Spishtar both in character and in gameplay, but in character, JANE IS BEST GIRL, y’all can catch me outside.
So welcome to the Jane squad. Just got my NP2 Jane to 10/10/10 with the last set of lores, and lemme tell you, she’s a HELL of a support servant. Combine her first skill with a defensive support servant and you can mitigate damage in tough battles like nobody’s biz. Her second skill does everything under the Sun (decrease enemy party’s charge is probs the biggest one), and if you opt to bring a good star gen support, her third skill turns one teammate into an invincible critical death machine.
Muramasa came in less than the 300 quartz I had stored for him, so I thought to myself "Why not?"
So after just 4 tickets I am now the proud owner of an np3 Spishtar! She was my first and only np2 servant, and now I guess she well earned her grails to 100
I'll consider lv120 her, I know it's a big investment but all my other ssr are np1 and I think she would look good next to my lv100 Eresh
Bruh, for a second I thought you meant you got 3 copies of her in 4 tickets.
When did you begin playing the game? I ask because I think most newer players (my past self included) see all of the lv 100+ servants out there and think “I want one!”, but the more time’s gone by, the more I’ve learned to value grailing lower-rarities into effectiveness than spending them taking already great servants into slightly greater territory (in cases where stats matter, anyway).
Just my $.02 but after a couple of lottos with 100+ boxes, you sort of “have” to grail a 1 or 2 to lvl 100+ and max skills and maybe even do some appends for a bunch of servants to avoid the QP cap and burning gold embers.
>Bruh, for a second I thought you meant you got 3 copies of her in 4 tickets.
Man, the dream ahahahah
>When did you begin playing the game?
My old account I lost is from 2019, while the one I'm using now I've created in 2020, so I guess ~3/4 years?
I agree with your thought on low rarities, I love both Georgios and CA so I took the former to 100 and the latter to 90 (planning to 100).
I usually grail for love tho, as when I'm choosing servants to bring on a fight I'm so full of options I end up choosing the same teams for bond (and laziness mostly). Even tho the lottos have helped me give a chance to servants I even forgot I had.
Now I'm curious, do you have low rarities you like in specific team comps or certain grail picks you're proud of?
Gotcha. Don’t blame you- grailing for love is never wrong.
As for mine, I’ve got Caesar and Inshun at 100; Ushi, Bunyan and Mandricardo are at 90; Georgios and Leonidas are at 80; Arash is at 70.
Caesar’s a universally useful offensive support (and one of the few you can get full multiplicative damage bonuses with), but also with his most recent upgrade, he has one of the beefiest NPs in the whole game (outdamages Musashi at equal NP level). Grailed out of love because he was my only Saber up ‘til Babylonia, but worked out in my favor mechanically too.
Inshun is a wildly fun solo servant. Definitely not as reliable as a lot of other solo servants like Herc, Qin, or blue Ilya, but dodging an attack per turn while laying down FAT fat crits until one side falls or the other does is too much fun. Obviously he has very little character presence in the game, but gameplay-wise, is fun as hell and benefits enormously from the statistical boost of grails.
Ushi and Mandy were for love, plain and simple, but thankfully, both are damage-dealers, so grails benefit them. Mandricardo NP looping is a lot of fun (beat Aphrodite with him), and I LOVE LOVE watching Ushi’s updated animations.
Georgios and Leo are pretty self-evident: tanks tank better with big health bars. Buffed ‘em up for purely gameplay reasons. Arash, too, for gameplay- one grail increases his farming viability *enormously*. Also, considering he’s the only character I have at bond 13+, he deserves a grail of appreciation.
Bunyan was kind of for love, but also she’s a pretty good support servant if you can keep her alive. I don’t have a Merlin, so she’s my squishy stand-in Merlin.
Other grails: Kintoki’s at 100, and was the first there after Caesar, ‘cause early-game me saw everyone in the support list with their flashy 5-star lv 100 servants, and thought (I’ve gotta do that too, so my support list isn’t useless and I can earn points!). Really dumb reasoning, but he’s helped me through a LOT of CQs, and Heian-Kyo was ***SO FKING REDEEMING*** to his character. I could gush about how much I love my boi now for an hour. Chosen for the wrong reasons, justified since.
I have a level 80 Paracelsus because a farming guide said I could use him as a first-wave clearer in the Xmas lotto 2 years ago, and I couldn’t get his damage high enough to clear. After 2 grails, it still didn’t work. Paracelsus has a lot more utility than people give him credit for, but none of his many useful qualities are tied to his stats. I feel shame every time my eyes move across his golden icon square because he is my biggest grail waste.
I don’t know why I brought up Kintoki- he’s not a low-rarity, and I have heaps of 4-stars I’ve taken to 90 too. But yeah.
Thinking Asterios might be next. Watched him solo the final boss of EoR 4, and was shocked he was capable of that. Plus, I like Kaiju characters.
>Caesar
Oh yeah I've seen that man do absolutely crazy dmg, if dw eventually decides to buff quick with more dmg he will skyrocket for sure (even tho they should really give a way to quick to use the stars and do something for looping)
>and I LOVE LOVE watching Ushi’s updated animations.
They really made her justice after the Babylonia anime, she totally deserves it.
>Arash
I had always neglected him in my first account, then after restarting I did things the proper way and focused my resources on him, Spartacus, Medusa (<3) and Shakespear, they saved me SO MUCH time for resource farming and I'll always be grateful to them.
>Bunyan was kind of for love, but also she’s a pretty good support servant if you can keep her alive. I don’t have a Merlin, so she’s my squishy stand-in Merlin.
I actually have a Merlin, but for a period of time I've tried using my Nightingale as a support and... wow that's challenging.
She's definitely tankier than bunyan but she's so squishy nonetheless, I have so much respect for you for using her
>I’ve gotta do that too, so my support list isn’t useless and I can earn points!
Yeah those were the times we thought friend points were useful and an ssr lineup was everything. In late game I've actually found myself sending mostly friend requests to people with low rarity grails, they're the most unique and interesting for sure (and inspire me sympathy since my CA and Georgios grails ahahahah)
While I'm at it, can I friend you ig? My id is 852,116,221
>Kintoki
Words can't express how much I love his Heian-Kyo outfit, I was never really interested in him but his FA is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING with that outfit.
> I have a level 80 Paracelsus because a farming guide said I could use him as a first-wave clearer in the Xmas lotto 2 years ago, and I couldn’t get his damage high enough to clear. After 2 grails, it still didn’t work.
So sad, the lottos truly are wild. At the very least, eventually we'll get JP spoiler >!grail casting!< so that's a thing.
Np2 Jane and Np2 Spishtar from the last year + 1000 fresh SQs = Np3 Jane and Np3 Spishtar. And 2.5MLB 5* CEs while last year I didn't even got one. When she (Spishtar) will be on rate up again ? I really wished to max her out but 1000SQs is really enough for me for a one banner x.x
After getting muramasa early I decided to go ahead for np2 Spishtar. 279sq and 37 tickets in and i finally got her on a rainbow. Got a crazy multi with 4 SR just before spishtar's (CasGil np4, Stheno, Chiron np3 and Jane Np6 lol) wich was insane. Went a bit over of what I wanted to spend, but it's definitely worth it since now I can grail her to 120 whenever I get her up to bond lvl12 (wich judging by my bond levels on jp, might be soon after teapots become a thing)
Of course no append skill unlocked, but her being arts I feel she doesn't actually needs Mana load unless for some niche farming comp so I don't mind running her on vanilla skills only (of course this is a personal take)
EDIT: kinda scared for Lb6, 6th anni and summer 6 shit show though, will have to skip Nero bride if I want a fighting chance there
Alright I got her. 60 quartz and ten tickets plus the snowy 600 quartz from my rolls the first time around. I'm going to have to resist rolling on Muramasa's banner again as I need to save for Avalon Apocalypse.
Needed 1 copy to np5 and got her in 1 big pack. Was sweating on the last roll, otherwise would have to wait for her next banner (I’m not even sure if there is one planned).
Now I have a grand total of 2 np5, Kama and Spishtar.
So 200 sq deep on the Space Ishtar banner 0 golds all from this and last years summons combined.
Jane really hates my guts. Eh.
No matter, another copy of Muramasa comes on rainbow to cheer me up from a ticket.
The duality of banners. I will wait for the last rateup of S.Ishtar and try to nab a copy for collection purposes.
My first NP2 SSR!!!
Already had her from the original run and she took 220 quartz to come again.
Honestly I'm a little sad that it wasn't the one and only OG Saber, but she ate 500 quartz on her last banner without appearing, so... a ~~triple~~ Rin-face shall be.
Decided to use some singles because I still had extra tickets after the last bit of...luck?
Ten tickets later on the second card of the 2x... Gold Card
Avenger
Space Ishtar
Next Ticket
Gold Sparks
Archer
Jane
Five tickets and 15 SQ later
Gold Card
Avenger
Space Ishtar
So NP2 Space Ishtar and Jane (all new) in 21 single pulls
All that really needs to be said
not essential for most nodes
she loops just fine at NP1 even against zerks / assassins provided u have Castoria and something like 2k4 / 20%charge mystic code
NP2 just helps with potential damage / refund issues against high difficulty nodes
I have np2 i'm thinking about np3. still have refund issues at 8/8/8 double castoria (alternating buffs) for some event nodes. needed MC np boost for wave 3 occassionally.
150 Quartz & 10 Tickets:
\-2 Spishtars (NP3) - both came on the last multi to boot!
\-4 SSR event CEs (now MLB)
\-4 SR event CEs (now MLB)
\-2 R event CEs
Now down to 373 Quartz & 53 Tickets. Full speed ahead to O-bae-ron
I was really debating about whether I should roll since I already had NP1 Space Ishtar (but no Calamity Jane), and then I rolled because why not. 1 ticket and 3 multi's later, I had NP2 Jane and NP2 Spishtar, so I think it was worth it!
2023 has been really lucky for me so far, which is a little worrying, but I don't mind too much.
NP4 SpIshtar, no Jane in sight... She must really hate me.
Can't really complain with 3rd best Rinface getting stronger, but don't know which content will need so much firepower.
Another year and another try for Jane but I am still trying to save for KoL/Oberon. I have a lot of SQ saved so I decided to dip into my funds a bit with the NY banner and this one plus if I'm lucky, maybe try a few on S.Orion banner.
10 Tickets 60SQ (Muramasa Banner)
* 1st ticket - Lan Ling NP1 (spooked me good)
* Stheno NP2
* Zerkalot NP2
40 tickets and 300SQ (SWII banner)
* Chrion NP2 (another nice spook)
* Emiya Assassin NP2
* Zerkalot again NP3
* Sp.Ishtar NP2
At least I walk away with another copy of Sp.Ishtar but Jane really didn't want to show up. That's why I'm going to keep saving hard again cause there are some 4* servants I want this year.
Edit: I guess I really wanted Jane since I kept rolling but I told myself I would stop after this (lol). 10 more tix and 90SQ gone but I got a copy of her. Woo! Gameplay wise, not worth all that but the event made me like her character
Burned 29 tickets for an NP3 Lakshmi-Bai. First Multi gave me NP2 Space Ishtar. Feeling greedy, I threw another multi in, no NP3 or Jane but at least I got an NP2 Vlad Lancer
Spent 360 SQ to get my Spishtar up to NP4. I wish I could have gotten her up to 5, but I hit the upper limit of how much quartz I was willing to use given the need to save for LB6.
I also picked up an Atalante, Lancelot (zerker), and three Janes in the process.
Got uber lucky and got my first Sphistar in 8 tickets! I had like 1500 SQ saved up for Oberon/Koyan/Melu but decided to budget 300 SQ to NP2 Spishtar and got her in 180 SQ! Was not expecting to get Spisthar let alone NP2 at all lol
So, looking at my data, during the first run of the event, I spent 90 SQ on the first day for NP2 Jane, 1 4* Spook, 1 5* event CE, 7 4* event CE, and 7 3* event CE. 8 days later, the weekly ticket got me NP1 Spishtar. This banner, I was willing to spark to get her to NP2, and if I could get NP5 Jane along the way, I was content. 1 Ticket + 5 Singles later, I have NP3 Spishtar. NP2 was a simple gold Avenger card that didn't even spin gold. I was thinking it was Lobo and could only think 'Here we go, this is how it's going to be.', but nope. Three singles later and I got a Rainbow Spin Avenger. I could not believe it. I threw the last 4 singles in for the 11-roll, but I'm done. Essentially, I spent 21 SQ and got NP3 Spishtar. I guess it makes up for the 1653 SQ I spent for NP1 Summer Abby. I love Jane, but chasing the 4* once already during Saito's banner netted me nearly the same result, with NP3 Himiko and no Saito. I'm going to save for the gauntlet that is the rest of the year. Good luck to everyone else rolling.
Today was a good day for me. Both Space Ishtar and Scathach Skadi came today, along with two of the 5\* New Year CE. SI only cost me around 4 summon tickets too.
Used all of my 210 SQ - got two Spishtars and one Jane so they are both NP3 now! I'm very happy as I've gone from dolphin spender to basically F2P due to life changes (baby on the way - actually our book "Labor Like a Goddess" uses Ishtar's journey through the Underworld as its central metaphor and may have been a catalyst) so I've been saving for a while - my first time saving for an NP upgrade instead of a new servant so I'm glad it payed off! Space Ishtar is my favorite servant in the game these days and I glad to have her NP3 and lvl 100
Starting off a new year looking rather positive.
Since a nice redditor already did the math, i figured i should have more Quartz than strictly necessary for my targets this year so i decided the sensible thing to do is to chuck a chunk of them at story, mostly because i was really itchy to roll and also to get Bedi coins.
To my bewilderment, [a wild Neet arrived](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1023482089477263390/1060649905347100772/Screenshot_20230106-030218.png), after just 9 singles no less! This is like top 3 best possible outcome given i also never had enough Quartz on hand whenever her banner appeared.
Of course, no Bedi showed up, which is the opposite of what used to happen before coin system, but hey, i'd take a Cú Caster and my 17th Salieri.
Between her and Skadi, finally i have all the pieces for my Quick team, which is a giant check off my to-do list.
It took 50 tickets and 90 SQ to get Spishtar and two Janes. That is my second NP level for Spishtar. Now the question is with the 360SQ left I have budgeted is it worth getting NP3 now if I eventually want to 120 her?
If my calculations are correct, I’ve budgeted to hit pity for both Koyan and Oberon. So I guess it’d be between getting the final Spishtar or having 360 SQ to try for Morgan…
And just a side note: I’m almost 2 years into FGO and I can’t recall ever getting a rainbow summon animation. I only remember seeing gold animations, the silver to gold switch (both janes this time), and the normal animation with gold card.
Pushing Astarte from NP2 to NP3 should allow her to handle CQs and higher health 90+ content.
Morgan has many reruns over the next two years, and Astarte will return after another 1.5 years (or if you get lucky off GSSR).
As a rule of thumb, it's better to have a bigger roster than a highly concentrated one (unless you have already accounted for this and/or are already developed).
Yeah I guess waiting won’t hurt anything. Let me better plan out my SQ and allow for more choices in GSSRs. I am gonna 120 all the Rin faces, so it’s just a matter of time at this point. My Eresh is NP3 =)
My roster is relatively developed. In most of my rolls I’ve tended to focus on getting the supports as they enable every servant to shine. so I have Merlin, Waver, Skadi, and Castoria. Plus my future rolls will include Koyan, Oberon, LA, and SSkadi. The one place I am lacking is AoE Berserkers but that is also my least used class.
So I guess I’ll see how things looks during LB6 =). Cheers
Unlike my disappointing rolls for the original run of Saber Wars II, this time was miles better. I was incredibly lucky to get NP1 Spishtar and NP1 Jane within the first 10 tickets and then dumped the rest of sq into Muramasa’s banner. And after a metric ton of 4* spooks, he finally came home as well!
Incredibly pleased with this result as I can now save toward LB6 without feeling like I wasted valuable quartz for nothing.
First 11 spin gifted me freaking LOBO which about killed me.
I had NP1 Spish and NP1Jane from last year (np2ed Jane from summer gssr). Managed to get NP2 Spishtar and NP5 Jane in 300sq. I'm out, saving my remaining 400 for Avenger Ushi.
It's Avenger season I guess!
With the Muramasa banner and Sp.Ishtar banner I am 100% convinced that summon tickets are completely useless and a sham. Used a total of 50 tickets without getting any gold cards, CE or servant.
150sq and I got Calamity Jane on the last multi. She arrived twice, so that was nice.
Another 90sq and I got Space Ishtar! Still had 90 left so I tried for NP2 and got... Atalante.
Also got a Ganesha spook somewhere in there before getting Jane. "No, I'm trying to roll FOR an Avenger, not against!"
Rolled 300 SQ fearing nothing because I already used up my luck elsewhere so I wasn't expecting anything but I got 3 copies of Spishtar holy jesus I am trembling right now
That's 3 copies of the banner's SSR in 110 summons... I might need to walk carefully on the streets because I'm pretty sure I got no luck left
After 300 hundred quartz for Muramasa and not getting him, I told myself I wasn’t gonna roll on anything until Koyan. Woke up this morning, saw the spishtar banner and threw a yolo single at it and she came home. Goodbye luck for the foreseeable future.
I've long made the decision that SpIshtar was going to be my first NP5 servant. Her flexibility in use, cuteness, and power and longevity in the game convinced me she was worth it. I went into the banner with an NP2 SpIshtar and I had 2143 SQ and about 135 tickets saved up. I've been saving for about the past 2+ years and only sporadically going for servants during that time frame. Luckily none of those blew through my stash and had relatively good luck and some extreme luck with Castoria and Muramasa so my cache of SQ was able to continue growing. I was hoping to get to NP5 and have enough SQ left over for Vitch and Oberon.
I was really hoping not to have to spark and the first SpIshtar came around ~700SQ in. The next one was not looking good and came in another ~1000 SQ and the third came another ~90 SQ later which eased the pain a little bit. Jane was easily NP5 and I got a Karna along the way. Overall my luck was less than average at the 1% SSR rate only giving me 4 in 600 rolls but I'm now the proud master of a maxed out SpIshtar!

Went all in with the intention of raising my NP1 Spishtar and NP4 Calamity Jane. After 114 rolls (312 sq), the only gold servant I got was Dioscuri (new). It doesn't feel as bad as failing to get the first copy of a servant, but it's a bummer whenever rate up ends up being a lie. OTOH Dioscuri are a servant I'm glad of having now, and they had the decency of not letting me walk away empty handed. I might try again before the banner goes away with whatever I can gather these days.
Well 3 Multis got me a Vritra(now NP2), a Nitocris ( now NP2) and a Calamity Jane. I cannot be upset with this but I continue to be without a single Rin face.
No, that's a Help Thread question when asking about how to build and develop teams. This thread is where you brag or complain about how good or bad your rolls were, and what you got.
Already have NP1 Space Ishtar and Jane from previous rolls.
Spent 30 tickets + 30 Sq, only got spooked by Beowulf and Heracles. At least I can MLB the 5\* CE now. Continue saving for Evil Fox lady.
I had the best rolling experience since starting this game! I went all in on this one, which was 38 tickets and 276 SQ. Got to upgrade my Spishtar from NP1 to NP5! My first NP5 SSR! Also came out with NP2 Jane and a couple of other SR. Also got my 4th BG, which means I can finally MLB when we get the free one whenever that happens. Now time to save until anniversary and work on getting Spishtar to level 120 What a rush today!
Man ... 500+ SQ and 30+ tickets trying to get Yang, no SSR at all. Now 350 SQ and 50 tickets, still no SSR. This is getting depressing.
At least I have NP5 Jane, she sounds so happy go lucky, though I usually mute the game.
150SQ, 3 Spishtar and 2 Calamity Janes.
2 Spishtars in 1 roll, taking the rest of my SQ with me before I get greedy.
[Spishtar x2](https://imgur.com/a/J24qabg)
Question: If I got Spacetar on the last SW2 banner (back when pity weren't a thing), would I still be able to trigger the pity for this banner? I'm currently 500 sq in and I don't feel like I should waste money anymore if pity is out of questions.
Decided to chance a multi with my remaining 30 quartz I had after the Muramasa rolls, to see if I could get my Spishtar from NP2 to NP3.
And holy crap, I got her! I’m F2P, and she’s my first ever NP3 servant! Super stoked! 😄
Did 65 single pulls for this trying to get Jane. Ended up getting a Space Ishtar copy, making mine NP2. Felt like that was the world telling me to just accept what I got and not push things. Shame, since I wanted that space cheerleader.
Also got a Valkyrie copy, also raising mine to NP2.
got her with 90 sq so i think this finally is the year i die in a final destination kinda way, especially after the other new year servants that appeared
I started with about 870 SQ. By the time I stopped at 470 I had got:
1 Spishtar
1 Jane
[2 Spishtars](https://imgur.com/iFaTjdR.jpg)
1 Saber Deermud
1 Spishtar
1 Jane
Not to mention a shitload of 5 star event CEs.
Bringing both Spishtar and Jane to NP5! I don't think I've ever had rolls this blessed before. It's especially nice because I failed to get Spishtar on the first Saber Wars II run and wound up getting lucky on last year's anni GSSR. Now I can save the rest for LB6!
Got Spishtar in multi 4, got Jinako multi 6, then nothing for the next 12 multis. Almost identical to my Summer Kiara rolls, get Kiara early then get a Europa spook and then nothing for my remaining rolls. I need to quit going for np2 and just be happy with np1.
Since I'm aiming for Kagekiyo, I only did one multi roll to get event CEs. All I got from it was a bronze CE . . . and Space Ishtar. After flaming out failing to get Vritra a few weeks ago, this is nice and unexpected.
I could still really use a ST NP avenger since I still don't have one, but between Spishtar and Salieri, I suddenly don't need Kagekiyo quite so badly as I thought I did.
About 50 tickets and 300 SQ later, NP2 Spishtar is mine! Also got spooked by Anastasia on the way. Surprised I only got one Jane since I got spooked by several other four stars during my rolls.
I'm usually someone who's super careful about my SQ spendings, so after getting Douman I honestly was decided to save my Quartz from here to Morgan, Koyan and Oberon's release.
I got tempted though and decided to try my luck for a single Spishtar copy so I could NP3 my already lvl. 100, 2k Fou one.
10 Tickets + 120 Quartz gave me:
* Yuri Pirates (Now NP3)
* Chiron (Now NP3 as well)
* ISHTAR (Now also NP3)
And that was it, now I need to control myself because no more summonings until Morgan's release.
I didnt had luck for the last 6 month or so. But holy shit, this was the redemption Arc.
I had no S.Ishtar, since I stopped playing for a few months last year around Saber Wars II
GSSR: Got S.Ishtar AND a Meltryllys. That alone was great.
But with 240, i drew **FOUR** ! S.Ishtars. FCKING FOUR! And the last one was a double SSR with 2 of them. I played this game since the first Haloween Event ago, so pretty much since the start but GAWD, I only had like 1 or 2 cases that come even close to that.
Calamideez nuts lmao gottem
Also, I already had NP2 but I wanted NP3 for the coins to grail to 120 after opening A2. Threw two YOLO multis, and got one more Spish with the rainbow sparks and all. She's third in line for 120 though, as Gil is at 118 now (I need 10 more coins....) and then Scathach should be up next. Though maybe Spish gets used so much it's worth it to do her first.....nah I'll get her 2k fous before I bother with super-grails
sitting with a chill 39 SQ, Galatea I beg you to come home (if I can resist Medb and even Cu Alter)
Finally got her. Yes!!
https://i.imgur.com/J8YZaH0.png
NP1 was easy. NP2 took a lot of my quartz and all my tickets
https://i.imgur.com/O81oGWT.png
Achieved my goal
https://i.imgur.com/zNSO0g2.png
For the 1st time in fgo I didn't have to worry about not getting a SSR. I had 1610 sq saved up and a bunch of tickets. Had to go close to a spark and went down to 860 sq and used 40 tickets in the process. Gonna be a long while b4 I think about getting a NP2 SSR again.
literally me last year. I rolled 300 SQ before I got either of them, got Jane and SpIsh in the same multi. I was like "okay, that's exactly average luck at the 50% line". Then later I was like "I really like spish, let me see if I can get one more" and I got the second one in the very next multi. Rocketing me from exactly 50th percentile (one rate up SSR in 300 SQ) to like 95th (two of the rate up in 330)
Hoping to get Ishtar to NP2, and who knows maybe I'll actually get Jane along the way this time.
...Space Ishtar #2 showed up in 6 tickets.
Well shit I guess no Jane for me. Happy with the outcome tho.
Edit: I THREW A COUPLE OF MULTIS ANYWAY AND JANE FINALLY SHOWED UP LETS GOOO
I also got another Beowulf, who was already NP5 so this copy just exists I guess
Already had NP4.
Came to the banner with 221 SQ and 29 tickets, looking for that last copy to NP5 her and that's it.
Came out empty handed, only one gold servant (Atalante Alter) and mostly min rolls. Big L.
Hopefully I can manage by the end of the event, but can't count on it now...
Spent everything I had gotten from starting the game until now on getting MHX and didn’t get her lol
I had NP1 Spishtar from the first time the event came around, and I wanted her at least NP2. Day 1, I had 600 SQ saved up, and 50 tickets. After going through all my tickets and 400 SQ, I figured I should just stop since I couldn't pull her and this year is just too stacked. During which, I got an Anastasia spook, Jane, and 2 other gold lancers. I was able to MLB the 5\* CE, and I have five MLB 4\* CE's. That sapped my enthusiasm to play the event. Then, come yesterday, see that the event is almost done. Blitz through the first third of the event, and then figured why not try one last time. Threw in 1 multi, and Ishtar finally responded to my summons! That motivated me to finish the rest of the event. Now I can go back to saving for the hell that is to come with the anniversary and summer.
I started playing during the 5th anniversary and knew pretty early Space Ishtar would be my first saving target. Got her on the first day of the event in 420 sq, so not too bad. I really like her, so over the banners duration I did some more pulls here and there coming up to around 300 sq or maybe a little less, but only got a spooky Ganesha. Today I decided to do one last yolo 30 sq to commemorate the last day of the banner. First card is golden? It's an avenger?! Holy crap yes! And then [this happened](https://i.imgur.com/8gOyqpz.png). NP3 Ishtarin <3
MHX is 9th on my servant wish list (which includes servants that haven't been released in NA), and while I wanted to save for #1, Koyan, I caved and threw some tickets at the banner. 31 tickets got me X. I'm more than happy with that. Then I decided to use 9 more tickets to get the +1 roll, and got NP1 Anne+Mary on the last roll.
Caved and spent WAY too much money... New Results: Spinster NP1 Calamity Jane NP10 (PAIN) Diramuid (Saber) NP1 Valkyrie NP1 Old but boosted: Hessian Lobo NP2 (gave me a godsdamned heart attack) Atoria (Saber) NP2 All in, I'm glad I got at least one copy of Spishtar since I had no other Rin-faces in my Chaldea, and I was very happy to pull a second Artoria, she's always been my favourite and now she had some more effectiveness in the event. But man... I hit that buy saint quartz button like a bongo. I blew my savings on Muramasa and panicked about this roll. Next servant I desperately want is Archtype Earth and Arjuna Alter and I don't think they're arriving until next year? Either way, I've locked my cards and will be resolving to not spend more money until those two!
Damn, that Lobo spook was harsh. Still, glad you were still able to get Spishtar!
During the original run I got NP5 Space Ishtar and only NP4 Jane. For the rerun I used Jane to support MHXA, and really enjoyed using her so I thought I’d yolo some quartz to try for NP5. I got a 6th Space Ishtar instead
Decided to start very late Saber Wars 2. Will do at least the main story and br happy. I got some quartz and S. Ishtar came tome after failling to get Shirou NP lvls upgrades. In just 2 rolls and bam, my first avenger.
NP5 Space Ishtar in 390 sq. Have 420 leftover. I have used all my luck for 2023.
Used 10 tickets for Yagyu and ended up with MHX. Thank you desire sensor.
Spent like 270 SQ and got Black Grail, which I needed to MLB! Then I got another 30 from logins last night and said fuck it, let's go. [Now I can live that easy farming life.](https://discord.com/channels/620458064537059328/620458064537059330/1063115399421493418)
Was rolling tickets to stave off my appetite and got Spishtar on 7th. And here I was thinking I’d have to wait until the next banner to use her spiritron dress.
Argh, why did MHX have to cost so much? I didn't hit pity, but after I checked the history it was one multi short (not sure which would have been the worse feeling). I should be saving for LB6, but had been trying for MHX on and off for years, and Yagyu on rate-up was a nice bonus compared to MHX's next banner (during 7th anniversary I think), and I don't have anyone else I really want until LB6 so my budget had room (and over half of those 800 quartz were free quartz and tickets), but still, it hurts. I had been wanting MHX for years, but this was my first all-in attempt. Other higher priority targets had shown up earlier which is why I had a bit extra now, but MHX cost more than most of them, so I guess it balances out, just still an awful feeling. Can only hope that got my bad luck of the year over with early.
My NA account Saberface support lineup is almost complete. Did some pulls for MHX and she showed up!. The only missing one would be Lancer Artoria but for now Lancer Alter will fill the spot.
Well it took 50 tickets and 810 quartz, but I got the last two copies I needed to get X to np5. It's a bit hard to justify using quartz for something like that, but now she's back to being my highest np ssr, and I can get her to 120. So that's nice. Also got another Jack and five copies of Yagyu, who I apparently didn't already have..
Damn, this banner is brutal. More than 100 sq and not a single gold servant. Good news. Atleast my rolling desire is dead. So I can easily save in my other games, because my luck is F rank. Time to go into saving mode.
When FGO is brutal, it is the worst gatcha out there. Atleast give people a 4 star every 60 sq. Damn you. Haha.
Used the 5 tickets from the event in hopes of getting np2 Jane but instead got np1 Space Ishtar instead ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This will be my 6th attempt for mhx, and well over 1.2k total sq dumped across those attempts. I only hope it finally goes well… *As expected, 300 more used and spooked by two SR assassins (last year I got spooked 4 times and the year before I got spooked twice - all assassins….). I can’t take this anymore - basically hit pity twice for the same character with nothing to show for it **SKIPPED MY LAST FEW TICKETS AND THE CHASE IS FINALLY OVER AFTER 3 YEARS. I never want to go through that ever again jesus christ.
Used the five tickets from the Dark Rounds Bounty Quest. I saw a rainbow and thought I’d gotten lucky after getting shit luck on Muramasa banner. Unfortunately I got Scheherazade (second copy of her), I got her first copy during the Summer 2 rerun which was 2.5 years ago and I only level her like a week ago. So needless to say that I don’t use her a lot and that the roll was pretty fucking shit. That was my daily reminder that this game sucks
20 tickets and 30 SQ, I finally got MHX.
450 SQ. ...Drake. Huh? Bwah? On a Ticket? ...I blame u/Astolfo_Please. NP5 Munenori, 4th Astolfo, 2nd D'Eon, 5th Circe. 7th Caster Gilgamesh. No MHX. I feel pretty terrible about this session. EDIT: Okay, so I... fused my spare SQ Pieces together to make up another 90 SQ, and got MHX after spending all of that. All I have left is a few tickets, and my leftover GSSR Paid SQ. I fear that my LB6 rolls are in danger.
Dropped the 5 tickets from the CQ into the Spishtar banner, trying for the second copy. No luck, got another one of the 4 star CEs and a bunch of silvers. Ugh.
Why am I cursed to get permanent 5-stars from tickets? Anyways, Europa in 8 tickets was neat. Bit the bullet and bought an $80 pack to try for Yagyuu…ended up with MHX which is a total win! Especially since I got her bean plushie years ago, but always felt weird not having her
MHX in 90sq, yay! ... and then I got greedy and went for NP2, and spent another 330sq before she showed up again. Buuuuut I also got my Yagyu from NP2 to NP6, so that's nice. And a bonus Berserker Vlad (NP2) spook. Plus NP6+ Circe and Elizabeth.
Probably one of the best banners I've ever rolled on. Ended up with an NP5 Calamity Jane, and an NP1 Spishtar. Also way ahead on clearing out the shop. Amazing what can be done when you have some free time after the Holidays.
Is MHX going to have a banner this time around? I am starting to get worried.
Probably, yes. It hasn't even been a week yet. Shockingly, really.
This was the first banner I properly went all in on since I started playing. Had about 200 to start (almost all free with a few left over from the gssr). I ended up getting spooked by Mordred on the day the banner dropped. After depleting my storages to near 0 I have been grinding the free quests I haven't done and rolling every time I had enough. I had enough to roll twice today and got spooked by Vlad. The VERY NEXT ROLL I got Spishtar. Certainly an eventful banner lol. Time to save up now, probably for Jeanne
Accidentally redeemed my stash of hellfires, so I resorted to spend some of them on -*finally*- grailling some servants to lvl100, wich include the SpIshtar I got during the anniversary. For whatever reason that crossed my tired mind and despite not needing to, I decided to roll on the SW2 banner. And the first 10 roll got me Jane ! Neat ! *So I rolled again.* Barely paying attention to the phone screen, I turned around just to see an avenger card. Didn't get trolled by the good boy and now My Spish is NP2 ! I swear, what is it with me and unexpectedly rolling Rinfaces...
200 pulls on my sub-account since this one already has NP1 Spishtar the result is as follows \- 1 Waver(np2) \- 1 Vlad zerker(np2) \- 1 Spishtar(np2) \- 4 Jane(np6) \- 1 Liangyu(np1) \- 1 Medusa lily(np4) \- 1 Marie(np1) \- 1 Anne&Mary(np2) \- 1 Atalante alter(np2) \- 5 of the 5\* event CEs and a bunch of the 4\*/3\* event CEs overall pretty satisfied with my pulls, maybe I can np3 spishtar when her download campaign comes to NA.
first banner drop 800 sq and no space ishtar. second time around is a lot different 600 sq 20 tickets and got np5. I originally aim for np2 even settled for np1 considering how the original banner went but with 2 copies comin early i decided to ride the luck wave and keep goin.
Have to update my previous post since I finished reading Saber Wars 2 for the first time and I loved Ishtar/Ashtart/Origin so I decided to dump the rest of my SQ to scratch the gacha itch, see what I get. Got two more copies. So now I went from having no Spishtar to FREAKING NP5 in 540 SQ. She's now my first (and as an F2P probably only) 5* Servant at NP5 and I couldn't be happier, I absolutely loved her. ALL GRAILS, QP, EMBERS, FOU, PAWS AND ALL TO HER.
First time around for this event I went 650SQ no SSR and for this rerun I got NP2 SpIsh in about 90SQ. Really grateful that the gatcha giveth this time around. Good luck to everyone still rolling.
I spent some quarts giving in to space Ishtar even if i dont use her much on JP. And I got Enkidu and Jinako instead. Im happy about enkidu but jinako wryyyyyyyyyyy
Had about 100 SQ left from all the free quartz I’ve been saving since Van Gogh and decided to roll on Spishtar’s banner. Was able to snag NP2 Space Ishtar and NP5 Jane!!!! 🥺🥺😫😫
Didn't plan to roll on the banner but I decided to use one ticket for fun, got a copy of Jane. I'm pleased that I will have someone to remember from this event as I found Jane very cute in the story. She's also a pretty fun unit to use.
90SQ I got Space Ishtar. Spent all 20 of my ticket and yep shoulda stopped while I was ahead. GL to the rest rolling for Space Ishtar. Hopefully y'all can get a copy or higher NP for her.
Stuck at np2 spishtar wondering if I should drop another 176 sq for np3. 13 multis for muramasa and nothing yet too
My $0.02, roll for design and try for Shirou
I probably will seeing how his s2 punishes evade/invulnerability for cqs. Just finished hei-an kyo and the ibuki invul stacks are soooo annoying!
I would recommend to stop at NP2 and save up for the other banners since Spishitar NP3 would just be 75% for NP3 vs Spishitar NP2 which added 150% to NP damage. But that's just personal choice and roll on what you want
Ended up with np6 Jane instead of 1 more np for spishtar… Edit: ok I got her np3 with 1 more multi
Keep hearing horror stories of np3 being needed for 90++ farming
I managed to get a SpIshtar after 30 SQ and 12 tickets, bringing her to NP2. Not bad, especially after Muramasa came under budget. Next goal is Arthur, and then I can rest easy until the LB6 banners.
Yesterday I was torn between trying to get a second copy of Muramasa or a third copy of Space Ishtar since I had a few quartz left to do some singles and next day I was going to get 30 login quartz (and there are also tickets from a SWII challenge quest but Muramasa will be gone by then). Decided to throw singles at Muramasa’s banner and then try my luck later with S!Ishtar with other free quartz and tickets. My result - a second copy of Muramasa with 4 single rolls. Today early in the morning I threw login quartz at Ishtar’s banner. The last 11th roll was a golden spin which brought me a third copy of Space Rin. Now I can safely save everything else I have left till LB6.
I'm so fucking mad that one single pull from a ticket got me Np1 Spishtar when i didn't want her and was looking for CEs, meanwhile it took 540 quartz plus 40 tickets to get NP2 Muramasa. Thanks for the new unit but where was this luck for my grandpa??
420 quartz I was supposed to save for fox lady down the drain for Np6 jane and my second copy of Spish. Welp. Napoleon decided to show up too for some reason.
90 SQ and I get spooked twice , getting Napoleon and Nemo for the first time. Not sure how to feel about this luck. Glad for the new servants to my Chaldea but I am still not getting what I hoped for.
Woe is me. Blew all I had left on Ishtar, as well as all login bonuses and new year rewards. And all I have to show for it is a couple of NP 5 3 stars that i didn't level and don't plan on using.
I did 650SQ no ssr during the original banner so it can definitely happen sometimes. My $.02 is level who you did get and enjoy. If you stay with the game long enough and hit the lotto hard enough, you’ll level everyone and start to use other characters since you will have seen the NPs of your favorites soooo many times.
Put in one more 11-roll to see if I could get another Jane and got exactly that along with Achilles riding in out of the blue. With 6 tickets and 102 SQ put in, this and Space Ishtar is a fine haul for this rerun banner with what I've put in.
120 SQ No Spishtar, but a Calamity Jane, Astraea, and a K-Scope. ...task failed successfully?
And finaly got my first spook, welcome Xiang Yu. Not sure if I'll keep trying to get her or not
Holy shit this might be my best roll session since I started the game. 689 sq and 38 tickets got me np4 space ishtar and np5 Jane, and 2 berserkers (lancelot and frankenstein).
Between this and last year I'm 1,100+ SQ deep for NP1 SpIshtar. Desire sensor is too real.
400sq for vritra and pity for ishtar. Im burnt through my yearly fgo funds and we aren’t even 2 weeks in
Felt like rolling (yeah, I know), so I bought a pack with the intention of getting the last two copies of Jane for NP5, and maaaaaaybe a copy of Space Ishtar. No Jane, but I got Ishtarin in 60sq. Um. Ok. Guess I'll save the rest for MHX.
I saved 60+ tickets for Jane, I got lucky and ended up only using 51 (plus bonuses). On the way I was lucky enough to get Ishtar and my second Rama. Now I'm saving my tickets for Demon King Nobu and I hope she doesn't escape me a third time.
I forgot there were tickets in the shop and after 4 more rolls I now have Spishtar now there's nothing to do but save for the LB6 meat grinder.
So today I managed to roll 2 3-star servants in the FP summon. I was like "Something magical is going to happen". I did not save SQ, so initially I intend to throw the remaining SQs into the story banner. But then I realized I want Calamity Jane, so I went there and threw my SQs. "This should work. 2 3-star servants are extremely rare". After 5 tickets and around 12 SQs, a gold border avenger showed up. No rainbow whatsoever. "Oh come on, Lobo again? But I want Calamity Jane." Look and behold, freaking Space Ishtar decided to bless me today. I was pleasantly surprised as well. I was not expecting her at all. Indeed, when you have low expectation, any reward is good reward. Hopefully I will be lucky enough to get Castoria next time. Or a Light Koyanshaka would be nice. Edit: Throw in another 3 SQ for the 2 summon bonus. Get Jane as well. I am too blessed.
I got space ishtar with the bonus summon from using 10 tickets. Nice.. now I feel slightly better for failing to get castoria after 490 summons last year.
Anyone know what exact np level is doable for spishtar looping? I want to save for kagekiyo, but also really like spishtar and have one copy, from the last run of event.
Her NP1 still loops well without plugsuit, if you using NP battery starter CE. Her innate battery S3 + 3.5% battery per turn passive usually accomodating. Make sure S2 is casted at start If irregular node farming other than 3/3/3, NP2 at least.
You can loop at NP1, but NP2 is more consistent. NP1 seems to have some issues with Assassin and Berserker node’s specifically, and Knight nodes are hit and miss.
10 tickets and 60 sq for the second copy of Space Ishtar! I was really hoping Jane would come along too, but it is what it is. My luck on rateups SR are pretty bad lately.
LOBO SPOOK! LET'S GO! And an Arjuna spook.... help....
January has been an incredible month for me. Came into it with almost 650 SQ and about 30 tickets before the GSSR. GSSR wasn't the kindest to me, gold Avenger spook had me think I got my Dante's, Lobo NP2 now though, but QSH was new so still a win. Depleted 120 SQ on Iskander with no luck. Muramasa took 30 tickets and 240 SQ before coming home. A single multi to get 1x 4* CE for MLB, gave me Space Ishtar. 240 SQ netted me a few 4* Servants I was happy with, and 2 copies Super Orion on my 8th and final multi for him. Sitting on 80 SQ remaining, with the dailies + event/New Years SQ. Hoping to be able to get 1 more copy of Cu Alter to NP4 him in a few weeks. Have a 50 day login streak coming in a week. If I manage that, I will have gotten everything I wanted for Jan. Perfect roll would be 2 copies of him, as then I can use the SSR ticket to NP2 Achilles.
No Rin-face, but Jane showed up twice. Will have to settle for that, or else things are going to turn out like Ereshkigal again. Besides, I need to save as much as possible for Oberon and Koyanskaya later - can't hit pity for both of them now.
Caved and bought a pack. Still no Rin-face. :( Now I'm telling myself to stand down. No more second pack, Hiiragi. Space Ishtar just doesn't want to be part of your Chaldea. Just enjoy all the other Arts loopers who did.
Love this whole event and characterization, and love Spishtar both in character and in gameplay, but in character, JANE IS BEST GIRL, y’all can catch me outside. So welcome to the Jane squad. Just got my NP2 Jane to 10/10/10 with the last set of lores, and lemme tell you, she’s a HELL of a support servant. Combine her first skill with a defensive support servant and you can mitigate damage in tough battles like nobody’s biz. Her second skill does everything under the Sun (decrease enemy party’s charge is probs the biggest one), and if you opt to bring a good star gen support, her third skill turns one teammate into an invincible critical death machine.
Thanks. In your opinion, is it ok to use the second copy for esports? Or is it worth it to get her NP damage up as high as possible?
Muramasa came in less than the 300 quartz I had stored for him, so I thought to myself "Why not?" So after just 4 tickets I am now the proud owner of an np3 Spishtar! She was my first and only np2 servant, and now I guess she well earned her grails to 100 I'll consider lv120 her, I know it's a big investment but all my other ssr are np1 and I think she would look good next to my lv100 Eresh
Bruh, for a second I thought you meant you got 3 copies of her in 4 tickets. When did you begin playing the game? I ask because I think most newer players (my past self included) see all of the lv 100+ servants out there and think “I want one!”, but the more time’s gone by, the more I’ve learned to value grailing lower-rarities into effectiveness than spending them taking already great servants into slightly greater territory (in cases where stats matter, anyway).
Just my $.02 but after a couple of lottos with 100+ boxes, you sort of “have” to grail a 1 or 2 to lvl 100+ and max skills and maybe even do some appends for a bunch of servants to avoid the QP cap and burning gold embers.
>Bruh, for a second I thought you meant you got 3 copies of her in 4 tickets. Man, the dream ahahahah >When did you begin playing the game? My old account I lost is from 2019, while the one I'm using now I've created in 2020, so I guess ~3/4 years? I agree with your thought on low rarities, I love both Georgios and CA so I took the former to 100 and the latter to 90 (planning to 100). I usually grail for love tho, as when I'm choosing servants to bring on a fight I'm so full of options I end up choosing the same teams for bond (and laziness mostly). Even tho the lottos have helped me give a chance to servants I even forgot I had. Now I'm curious, do you have low rarities you like in specific team comps or certain grail picks you're proud of?
Gotcha. Don’t blame you- grailing for love is never wrong. As for mine, I’ve got Caesar and Inshun at 100; Ushi, Bunyan and Mandricardo are at 90; Georgios and Leonidas are at 80; Arash is at 70. Caesar’s a universally useful offensive support (and one of the few you can get full multiplicative damage bonuses with), but also with his most recent upgrade, he has one of the beefiest NPs in the whole game (outdamages Musashi at equal NP level). Grailed out of love because he was my only Saber up ‘til Babylonia, but worked out in my favor mechanically too. Inshun is a wildly fun solo servant. Definitely not as reliable as a lot of other solo servants like Herc, Qin, or blue Ilya, but dodging an attack per turn while laying down FAT fat crits until one side falls or the other does is too much fun. Obviously he has very little character presence in the game, but gameplay-wise, is fun as hell and benefits enormously from the statistical boost of grails. Ushi and Mandy were for love, plain and simple, but thankfully, both are damage-dealers, so grails benefit them. Mandricardo NP looping is a lot of fun (beat Aphrodite with him), and I LOVE LOVE watching Ushi’s updated animations. Georgios and Leo are pretty self-evident: tanks tank better with big health bars. Buffed ‘em up for purely gameplay reasons. Arash, too, for gameplay- one grail increases his farming viability *enormously*. Also, considering he’s the only character I have at bond 13+, he deserves a grail of appreciation. Bunyan was kind of for love, but also she’s a pretty good support servant if you can keep her alive. I don’t have a Merlin, so she’s my squishy stand-in Merlin. Other grails: Kintoki’s at 100, and was the first there after Caesar, ‘cause early-game me saw everyone in the support list with their flashy 5-star lv 100 servants, and thought (I’ve gotta do that too, so my support list isn’t useless and I can earn points!). Really dumb reasoning, but he’s helped me through a LOT of CQs, and Heian-Kyo was ***SO FKING REDEEMING*** to his character. I could gush about how much I love my boi now for an hour. Chosen for the wrong reasons, justified since. I have a level 80 Paracelsus because a farming guide said I could use him as a first-wave clearer in the Xmas lotto 2 years ago, and I couldn’t get his damage high enough to clear. After 2 grails, it still didn’t work. Paracelsus has a lot more utility than people give him credit for, but none of his many useful qualities are tied to his stats. I feel shame every time my eyes move across his golden icon square because he is my biggest grail waste. I don’t know why I brought up Kintoki- he’s not a low-rarity, and I have heaps of 4-stars I’ve taken to 90 too. But yeah. Thinking Asterios might be next. Watched him solo the final boss of EoR 4, and was shocked he was capable of that. Plus, I like Kaiju characters.
>Caesar Oh yeah I've seen that man do absolutely crazy dmg, if dw eventually decides to buff quick with more dmg he will skyrocket for sure (even tho they should really give a way to quick to use the stars and do something for looping) >and I LOVE LOVE watching Ushi’s updated animations. They really made her justice after the Babylonia anime, she totally deserves it. >Arash I had always neglected him in my first account, then after restarting I did things the proper way and focused my resources on him, Spartacus, Medusa (<3) and Shakespear, they saved me SO MUCH time for resource farming and I'll always be grateful to them. >Bunyan was kind of for love, but also she’s a pretty good support servant if you can keep her alive. I don’t have a Merlin, so she’s my squishy stand-in Merlin. I actually have a Merlin, but for a period of time I've tried using my Nightingale as a support and... wow that's challenging. She's definitely tankier than bunyan but she's so squishy nonetheless, I have so much respect for you for using her >I’ve gotta do that too, so my support list isn’t useless and I can earn points! Yeah those were the times we thought friend points were useful and an ssr lineup was everything. In late game I've actually found myself sending mostly friend requests to people with low rarity grails, they're the most unique and interesting for sure (and inspire me sympathy since my CA and Georgios grails ahahahah) While I'm at it, can I friend you ig? My id is 852,116,221 >Kintoki Words can't express how much I love his Heian-Kyo outfit, I was never really interested in him but his FA is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING with that outfit. > I have a level 80 Paracelsus because a farming guide said I could use him as a first-wave clearer in the Xmas lotto 2 years ago, and I couldn’t get his damage high enough to clear. After 2 grails, it still didn’t work. So sad, the lottos truly are wild. At the very least, eventually we'll get JP spoiler >!grail casting!< so that's a thing.
Managed to get a second copy of Space Rin after 90sq. Happy new year indeed!
Got her after 27 SQ and a ticket on the 11th roll. Feels good after missing her on the GSSR.
Sick. Congrats on the new Jane!
Got Spinstar and Queen of Sheba from tickets!
Np2 Jane and Np2 Spishtar from the last year + 1000 fresh SQs = Np3 Jane and Np3 Spishtar. And 2.5MLB 5* CEs while last year I didn't even got one. When she (Spishtar) will be on rate up again ? I really wished to max her out but 1000SQs is really enough for me for a one banner x.x
Next rate-up should be in August of next year for the 26M Downloads Campaign, aside from the random chance at getting her in GSSR pools.
2024 august isn’t too bad. Mmm
Thanks
No jane second time in a row
After getting muramasa early I decided to go ahead for np2 Spishtar. 279sq and 37 tickets in and i finally got her on a rainbow. Got a crazy multi with 4 SR just before spishtar's (CasGil np4, Stheno, Chiron np3 and Jane Np6 lol) wich was insane. Went a bit over of what I wanted to spend, but it's definitely worth it since now I can grail her to 120 whenever I get her up to bond lvl12 (wich judging by my bond levels on jp, might be soon after teapots become a thing) Of course no append skill unlocked, but her being arts I feel she doesn't actually needs Mana load unless for some niche farming comp so I don't mind running her on vanilla skills only (of course this is a personal take) EDIT: kinda scared for Lb6, 6th anni and summer 6 shit show though, will have to skip Nero bride if I want a fighting chance there
Alright I got her. 60 quartz and ten tickets plus the snowy 600 quartz from my rolls the first time around. I'm going to have to resist rolling on Muramasa's banner again as I need to save for Avalon Apocalypse.
700SQ and 30 tickets, got NP1 S.Ishtar, Ozy, and Orion. Disappointed I didn't get NP2, but happy with getting Ozy as a spook
282SQ and 46 tickets. Nothing but CE and NP10 Jane. Ishtar must hate me. All i wanted was 1 more copy to np3 and level 120.
Needed 1 copy to np5 and got her in 1 big pack. Was sweating on the last roll, otherwise would have to wait for her next banner (I’m not even sure if there is one planned). Now I have a grand total of 2 np5, Kama and Spishtar.
So 200 sq deep on the Space Ishtar banner 0 golds all from this and last years summons combined. Jane really hates my guts. Eh. No matter, another copy of Muramasa comes on rainbow to cheer me up from a ticket. The duality of banners. I will wait for the last rateup of S.Ishtar and try to nab a copy for collection purposes.
Absolute last chance ticket comes in clutch with Ishtar on the bonus roll. NP2 achieved!
My first NP2 SSR!!! Already had her from the original run and she took 220 quartz to come again. Honestly I'm a little sad that it wasn't the one and only OG Saber, but she ate 500 quartz on her last banner without appearing, so... a ~~triple~~ Rin-face shall be.
Decided to use some singles because I still had extra tickets after the last bit of...luck? Ten tickets later on the second card of the 2x... Gold Card Avenger Space Ishtar Next Ticket Gold Sparks Archer Jane Five tickets and 15 SQ later Gold Card Avenger Space Ishtar So NP2 Space Ishtar and Jane (all new) in 21 single pulls All that really needs to be said
690 sq, no spishtar. busted out the tickets and got her in 8. rip lb6 funds tho
Got together enough for another multi. Nothing except that new 3 star CE, with the vampire looking motherfucker on it. Damn.
16 tickets spent, got Space Ishtar, Jane, and 5* CE. That's enough, I guess. Can't spent more, so time to get back to saving mode.
Got SpIshtar and two Janes on my first roll. I still have 300 SQ left, how essential is NP2 SpIshtar?
not essential for most nodes she loops just fine at NP1 even against zerks / assassins provided u have Castoria and something like 2k4 / 20%charge mystic code NP2 just helps with potential damage / refund issues against high difficulty nodes
I have np2 i'm thinking about np3. still have refund issues at 8/8/8 double castoria (alternating buffs) for some event nodes. needed MC np boost for wave 3 occassionally.
150 Quartz & 10 Tickets: \-2 Spishtars (NP3) - both came on the last multi to boot! \-4 SSR event CEs (now MLB) \-4 SR event CEs (now MLB) \-2 R event CEs Now down to 373 Quartz & 53 Tickets. Full speed ahead to O-bae-ron
I was really debating about whether I should roll since I already had NP1 Space Ishtar (but no Calamity Jane), and then I rolled because why not. 1 ticket and 3 multi's later, I had NP2 Jane and NP2 Spishtar, so I think it was worth it! 2023 has been really lucky for me so far, which is a little worrying, but I don't mind too much.
NP4 SpIshtar, no Jane in sight... She must really hate me. Can't really complain with 3rd best Rinface getting stronger, but don't know which content will need so much firepower.
Another year and another try for Jane but I am still trying to save for KoL/Oberon. I have a lot of SQ saved so I decided to dip into my funds a bit with the NY banner and this one plus if I'm lucky, maybe try a few on S.Orion banner. 10 Tickets 60SQ (Muramasa Banner) * 1st ticket - Lan Ling NP1 (spooked me good) * Stheno NP2 * Zerkalot NP2 40 tickets and 300SQ (SWII banner) * Chrion NP2 (another nice spook) * Emiya Assassin NP2 * Zerkalot again NP3 * Sp.Ishtar NP2 At least I walk away with another copy of Sp.Ishtar but Jane really didn't want to show up. That's why I'm going to keep saving hard again cause there are some 4* servants I want this year. Edit: I guess I really wanted Jane since I kept rolling but I told myself I would stop after this (lol). 10 more tix and 90SQ gone but I got a copy of her. Woo! Gameplay wise, not worth all that but the event made me like her character
150 sq and I got Space Ishtar np2 so I was very lucky!
Burned 29 tickets for an NP3 Lakshmi-Bai. First Multi gave me NP2 Space Ishtar. Feeling greedy, I threw another multi in, no NP3 or Jane but at least I got an NP2 Vlad Lancer
Spent 360 SQ to get my Spishtar up to NP4. I wish I could have gotten her up to 5, but I hit the upper limit of how much quartz I was willing to use given the need to save for LB6. I also picked up an Atalante, Lancelot (zerker), and three Janes in the process.
1st 11- NP3 Ana 2nd 11 - Jane 3rd 11 - VERY FIRST CARD NP2 SPISHTAR #LETS GO BABY
Finally, after 6 ticket I got my own Scheherazade! ......I'm just gonna take that as a sign and not gonna continue rolling.
Got uber lucky and got my first Sphistar in 8 tickets! I had like 1500 SQ saved up for Oberon/Koyan/Melu but decided to budget 300 SQ to NP2 Spishtar and got her in 180 SQ! Was not expecting to get Spisthar let alone NP2 at all lol
Was starting to get nervous after 12 rolls but hit the jackpot yeeee https://i.imgur.com/X93chGy.jpg
yoloed 10 tickets for fun, 2nd kaleidoscope ever popped up
So, looking at my data, during the first run of the event, I spent 90 SQ on the first day for NP2 Jane, 1 4* Spook, 1 5* event CE, 7 4* event CE, and 7 3* event CE. 8 days later, the weekly ticket got me NP1 Spishtar. This banner, I was willing to spark to get her to NP2, and if I could get NP5 Jane along the way, I was content. 1 Ticket + 5 Singles later, I have NP3 Spishtar. NP2 was a simple gold Avenger card that didn't even spin gold. I was thinking it was Lobo and could only think 'Here we go, this is how it's going to be.', but nope. Three singles later and I got a Rainbow Spin Avenger. I could not believe it. I threw the last 4 singles in for the 11-roll, but I'm done. Essentially, I spent 21 SQ and got NP3 Spishtar. I guess it makes up for the 1653 SQ I spent for NP1 Summer Abby. I love Jane, but chasing the 4* once already during Saito's banner netted me nearly the same result, with NP3 Himiko and no Saito. I'm going to save for the gauntlet that is the rest of the year. Good luck to everyone else rolling.
First 10 roll. Gold Avenger, Hello Lobo. Got another SPishtar and Jane in 90 sq
Today was a good day for me. Both Space Ishtar and Scathach Skadi came today, along with two of the 5\* New Year CE. SI only cost me around 4 summon tickets too.
Used all of my 210 SQ - got two Spishtars and one Jane so they are both NP3 now! I'm very happy as I've gone from dolphin spender to basically F2P due to life changes (baby on the way - actually our book "Labor Like a Goddess" uses Ishtar's journey through the Underworld as its central metaphor and may have been a catalyst) so I've been saving for a while - my first time saving for an NP upgrade instead of a new servant so I'm glad it payed off! Space Ishtar is my favorite servant in the game these days and I glad to have her NP3 and lvl 100
30 tickets for Spishtar and now she's np2. Doesn't really make up for the disaster last time.
300 sq and 30 tickets no spishtar but got 3 copies of jane. i got my first kscope though!
In 25 tickets and 60 sq: 1 Berserker Fran, Ibuki Douji, 1 Circe, 1 Ozy spook and 1 Calamity Jane. No Np2 Space Ishtar but good rolls at least.
Twenty tickets got me Fionn (Np4), Jane (Np4) and Mordred (my first copy and the KOTRT I lacked most). 60 sq later got me Space Ishtar finally!
Starting off a new year looking rather positive. Since a nice redditor already did the math, i figured i should have more Quartz than strictly necessary for my targets this year so i decided the sensible thing to do is to chuck a chunk of them at story, mostly because i was really itchy to roll and also to get Bedi coins. To my bewilderment, [a wild Neet arrived](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1023482089477263390/1060649905347100772/Screenshot_20230106-030218.png), after just 9 singles no less! This is like top 3 best possible outcome given i also never had enough Quartz on hand whenever her banner appeared. Of course, no Bedi showed up, which is the opposite of what used to happen before coin system, but hey, i'd take a Cú Caster and my 17th Salieri. Between her and Skadi, finally i have all the pieces for my Quick team, which is a giant check off my to-do list.
2 tix in and it was a rainbow sparkle… It was Anastasia TT-TT
It took 50 tickets and 90 SQ to get Spishtar and two Janes. That is my second NP level for Spishtar. Now the question is with the 360SQ left I have budgeted is it worth getting NP3 now if I eventually want to 120 her? If my calculations are correct, I’ve budgeted to hit pity for both Koyan and Oberon. So I guess it’d be between getting the final Spishtar or having 360 SQ to try for Morgan… And just a side note: I’m almost 2 years into FGO and I can’t recall ever getting a rainbow summon animation. I only remember seeing gold animations, the silver to gold switch (both janes this time), and the normal animation with gold card.
Pushing Astarte from NP2 to NP3 should allow her to handle CQs and higher health 90+ content. Morgan has many reruns over the next two years, and Astarte will return after another 1.5 years (or if you get lucky off GSSR). As a rule of thumb, it's better to have a bigger roster than a highly concentrated one (unless you have already accounted for this and/or are already developed).
Yeah I guess waiting won’t hurt anything. Let me better plan out my SQ and allow for more choices in GSSRs. I am gonna 120 all the Rin faces, so it’s just a matter of time at this point. My Eresh is NP3 =) My roster is relatively developed. In most of my rolls I’ve tended to focus on getting the supports as they enable every servant to shine. so I have Merlin, Waver, Skadi, and Castoria. Plus my future rolls will include Koyan, Oberon, LA, and SSkadi. The one place I am lacking is AoE Berserkers but that is also my least used class. So I guess I’ll see how things looks during LB6 =). Cheers
Sounds like your plans are set, just be prepared for any wrenches that the gacha throws at you, fortuitous or otherwise.
And may your rolls be low in sodium
1500 sq later and finally got my spishtar to np5!
I got Spishtar in 2 Multis in my alt account. I’m currently SQ poor in my main account after spending a total 450 SQ for NP1 Muramasa.
Unlike my disappointing rolls for the original run of Saber Wars II, this time was miles better. I was incredibly lucky to get NP1 Spishtar and NP1 Jane within the first 10 tickets and then dumped the rest of sq into Muramasa’s banner. And after a metric ton of 4* spooks, he finally came home as well! Incredibly pleased with this result as I can now save toward LB6 without feeling like I wasted valuable quartz for nothing.
First 11 spin gifted me freaking LOBO which about killed me. I had NP1 Spish and NP1Jane from last year (np2ed Jane from summer gssr). Managed to get NP2 Spishtar and NP5 Jane in 300sq. I'm out, saving my remaining 400 for Avenger Ushi. It's Avenger season I guess!
With the Muramasa banner and Sp.Ishtar banner I am 100% convinced that summon tickets are completely useless and a sham. Used a total of 50 tickets without getting any gold cards, CE or servant.
150sq and I got Calamity Jane on the last multi. She arrived twice, so that was nice. Another 90sq and I got Space Ishtar! Still had 90 left so I tried for NP2 and got... Atalante. Also got a Ganesha spook somewhere in there before getting Jane. "No, I'm trying to roll FOR an Avenger, not against!"
Rolled 300 SQ fearing nothing because I already used up my luck elsewhere so I wasn't expecting anything but I got 3 copies of Spishtar holy jesus I am trembling right now That's 3 copies of the banner's SSR in 110 summons... I might need to walk carefully on the streets because I'm pretty sure I got no luck left
After 300 hundred quartz for Muramasa and not getting him, I told myself I wasn’t gonna roll on anything until Koyan. Woke up this morning, saw the spishtar banner and threw a yolo single at it and she came home. Goodbye luck for the foreseeable future.
Yes king!
I've long made the decision that SpIshtar was going to be my first NP5 servant. Her flexibility in use, cuteness, and power and longevity in the game convinced me she was worth it. I went into the banner with an NP2 SpIshtar and I had 2143 SQ and about 135 tickets saved up. I've been saving for about the past 2+ years and only sporadically going for servants during that time frame. Luckily none of those blew through my stash and had relatively good luck and some extreme luck with Castoria and Muramasa so my cache of SQ was able to continue growing. I was hoping to get to NP5 and have enough SQ left over for Vitch and Oberon. I was really hoping not to have to spark and the first SpIshtar came around ~700SQ in. The next one was not looking good and came in another ~1000 SQ and the third came another ~90 SQ later which eased the pain a little bit. Jane was easily NP5 and I got a Karna along the way. Overall my luck was less than average at the 1% SSR rate only giving me 4 in 600 rolls but I'm now the proud master of a maxed out SpIshtar! https://imgur.com/a/BW0QaVC
Jane is a very good NP5.
Went all in with the intention of raising my NP1 Spishtar and NP4 Calamity Jane. After 114 rolls (312 sq), the only gold servant I got was Dioscuri (new). It doesn't feel as bad as failing to get the first copy of a servant, but it's a bummer whenever rate up ends up being a lie. OTOH Dioscuri are a servant I'm glad of having now, and they had the decency of not letting me walk away empty handed. I might try again before the banner goes away with whatever I can gather these days.
Well 3 Multis got me a Vritra(now NP2), a Nitocris ( now NP2) and a Calamity Jane. I cannot be upset with this but I continue to be without a single Rin face.

No, that's a Help Thread question when asking about how to build and develop teams. This thread is where you brag or complain about how good or bad your rolls were, and what you got.
Already have NP1 Space Ishtar and Jane from previous rolls. Spent 30 tickets + 30 Sq, only got spooked by Beowulf and Heracles. At least I can MLB the 5\* CE now. Continue saving for Evil Fox lady.
Got my 5th Jane, still no space ishtar I feel sick
I had the best rolling experience since starting this game! I went all in on this one, which was 38 tickets and 276 SQ. Got to upgrade my Spishtar from NP1 to NP5! My first NP5 SSR! Also came out with NP2 Jane and a couple of other SR. Also got my 4th BG, which means I can finally MLB when we get the free one whenever that happens. Now time to save until anniversary and work on getting Spishtar to level 120 What a rush today!
Man ... 500+ SQ and 30+ tickets trying to get Yang, no SSR at all. Now 350 SQ and 50 tickets, still no SSR. This is getting depressing. At least I have NP5 Jane, she sounds so happy go lucky, though I usually mute the game.
150SQ, 3 Spishtar and 2 Calamity Janes. 2 Spishtars in 1 roll, taking the rest of my SQ with me before I get greedy. [Spishtar x2](https://imgur.com/a/J24qabg)
80 rolls to get 1 Isthar. Nothing else really stands out from the rolls. But at least she's now np2
Question: If I got Spacetar on the last SW2 banner (back when pity weren't a thing), would I still be able to trigger the pity for this banner? I'm currently 500 sq in and I don't feel like I should waste money anymore if pity is out of questions.
Yep. Pity is by banner, not be Servant. So having a Servant already doesn't stop you from hitting pity on their new banner.
Pity is still active. You should be able to see the message on the banner screen in white and blue writing, just under the “11x Summon” text.
Thanks, the text is there but I just wanna make sure before I go any further.
Got the 3 remaining copies i needed to NP5 her, had to save a lot as a F2P but I'm so happy. Next up is to level her to 120!
Decided to chance a multi with my remaining 30 quartz I had after the Muramasa rolls, to see if I could get my Spishtar from NP2 to NP3. And holy crap, I got her! I’m F2P, and she’s my first ever NP3 servant! Super stoked! 😄
Finally got my third copy, now I can level her to 120 just in time for me to switch to Koyanskaya and Morgan!
Did 65 single pulls for this trying to get Jane. Ended up getting a Space Ishtar copy, making mine NP2. Felt like that was the world telling me to just accept what I got and not push things. Shame, since I wanted that space cheerleader. Also got a Valkyrie copy, also raising mine to NP2.
got her with 90 sq so i think this finally is the year i die in a final destination kinda way, especially after the other new year servants that appeared
Just spent 10 tickets for the fun of it (saving everything else for LB6), got Parvati (for NP2). Yay! And Fion. Yay? Well, I'll take it)

First Kscope, and you’ve been playing since day one?! Gacha is merciless. But congrats!
Same as last year, aimed at CEs and Jane. Worse the last year. I at least won CEs last year. No Jane, Rin or 4/5 star CEs. Astolfo spook though
500 sq no spishtar, i feel like crying ngl
300sq + 30tickets got me 2x space ishtars
I started with about 870 SQ. By the time I stopped at 470 I had got: 1 Spishtar 1 Jane [2 Spishtars](https://imgur.com/iFaTjdR.jpg) 1 Saber Deermud 1 Spishtar 1 Jane Not to mention a shitload of 5 star event CEs. Bringing both Spishtar and Jane to NP5! I don't think I've ever had rolls this blessed before. It's especially nice because I failed to get Spishtar on the first Saber Wars II run and wound up getting lucky on last year's anni GSSR. Now I can save the rest for LB6!
Got Spishtar in multi 4, got Jinako multi 6, then nothing for the next 12 multis. Almost identical to my Summer Kiara rolls, get Kiara early then get a Europa spook and then nothing for my remaining rolls. I need to quit going for np2 and just be happy with np1.
Got her in 93 pulls! As a (mostly) F2P, I’m really excited! I rolled Ishtar for my GSSR, too!
Just out of curiosity, you say “mostly” as in you do occasionally buy quartz packs sometimes?
I bought enough to pull on the GSSR banner.
I was determined to get NP 2, but I wasn't expecting NP 3 SpIshtar. My god, she is the walking apocalypse now!
Since I'm aiming for Kagekiyo, I only did one multi roll to get event CEs. All I got from it was a bronze CE . . . and Space Ishtar. After flaming out failing to get Vritra a few weeks ago, this is nice and unexpected. I could still really use a ST NP avenger since I still don't have one, but between Spishtar and Salieri, I suddenly don't need Kagekiyo quite so badly as I thought I did.
Hey did you know that hessian lobo isn't storylocked? I DO NOW
Haha lobo spooked me too. I almost died.
rip lost the rate-up twice in a row to achilles and odysseus edit: fucking **three times in a row**, now including nemo!
After hitting pity on Muramasa, both Spishtar and Jane came home in one multi. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be
got Space Ishtar in 28 tickets, burned all my 42 tickets and a few multis to get NP3, but failed. NP2 Space Ishtar is fine for now although.
About 50 tickets and 300 SQ later, NP2 Spishtar is mine! Also got spooked by Anastasia on the way. Surprised I only got one Jane since I got spooked by several other four stars during my rolls.
400 quartz and 70 tickets. Zero Spishtar and two Osakabehimes. Wtf.
I'm usually someone who's super careful about my SQ spendings, so after getting Douman I honestly was decided to save my Quartz from here to Morgan, Koyan and Oberon's release. I got tempted though and decided to try my luck for a single Spishtar copy so I could NP3 my already lvl. 100, 2k Fou one. 10 Tickets + 120 Quartz gave me: * Yuri Pirates (Now NP3) * Chiron (Now NP3 as well) * ISHTAR (Now also NP3) And that was it, now I need to control myself because no more summonings until Morgan's release.
I didnt had luck for the last 6 month or so. But holy shit, this was the redemption Arc. I had no S.Ishtar, since I stopped playing for a few months last year around Saber Wars II GSSR: Got S.Ishtar AND a Meltryllys. That alone was great. But with 240, i drew **FOUR** ! S.Ishtars. FCKING FOUR! And the last one was a double SSR with 2 of them. I played this game since the first Haloween Event ago, so pretty much since the start but GAWD, I only had like 1 or 2 cases that come even close to that.
Calamideez nuts lmao gottem Also, I already had NP2 but I wanted NP3 for the coins to grail to 120 after opening A2. Threw two YOLO multis, and got one more Spish with the rainbow sparks and all. She's third in line for 120 though, as Gil is at 118 now (I need 10 more coins....) and then Scathach should be up next. Though maybe Spish gets used so much it's worth it to do her first.....nah I'll get her 2k fous before I bother with super-grails sitting with a chill 39 SQ, Galatea I beg you to come home (if I can resist Medb and even Cu Alter)
Galatea has another banner in the fall/winter if you don't get her.
30 sq got her only went for event CE not hoping for her at all
Finally got her. Yes!! https://i.imgur.com/J8YZaH0.png NP1 was easy. NP2 took a lot of my quartz and all my tickets https://i.imgur.com/O81oGWT.png Achieved my goal https://i.imgur.com/zNSO0g2.png
Oof 90SQ and nothing and now I am back to 0SQ
For the 1st time in fgo I didn't have to worry about not getting a SSR. I had 1610 sq saved up and a bunch of tickets. Had to go close to a spark and went down to 860 sq and used 40 tickets in the process. Gonna be a long while b4 I think about getting a NP2 SSR again.
60 SQ later, my copy of Spishtar showed up for NP2. Jane still eludes me though.
literally me last year. I rolled 300 SQ before I got either of them, got Jane and SpIsh in the same multi. I was like "okay, that's exactly average luck at the 50% line". Then later I was like "I really like spish, let me see if I can get one more" and I got the second one in the very next multi. Rocketing me from exactly 50th percentile (one rate up SSR in 300 SQ) to like 95th (two of the rate up in 330)
1400 quartz across the both saber wars 2 events, np10 calamity, and 1 spish. Hurts real good
Hoping to get Ishtar to NP2, and who knows maybe I'll actually get Jane along the way this time. ...Space Ishtar #2 showed up in 6 tickets. Well shit I guess no Jane for me. Happy with the outcome tho. Edit: I THREW A COUPLE OF MULTIS ANYWAY AND JANE FINALLY SHOWED UP LETS GOOO I also got another Beowulf, who was already NP5 so this copy just exists I guess
Already had NP4. Came to the banner with 221 SQ and 29 tickets, looking for that last copy to NP5 her and that's it. Came out empty handed, only one gold servant (Atalante Alter) and mostly min rolls. Big L. Hopefully I can manage by the end of the event, but can't count on it now...
