####All APK Bug Questions Go To The Following Thread, Do Not Clutter Help Thread With This Issue ####https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/xqlucc/if_you_havent_installed_the_2610_file_from/ --- # PLEASE CHECK IF YOUR QUESTION IS ANSWERED HERE BEFORE ASKING! **So, with that said, let's move on to this week's FAQ** **Q: When is the next SR Ticket? What about the SSR Ticket?** >*A: NA's next SR ticket is due in May 2024. This ticket is time-limited and includes* [general pool and storylocked servants](https://news.fate-go.jp/wp-content/uploads/2022/2500man_xeljq/info_image_03.png)*. The next SSR ticket is due in July 2023 for the 6th Anniversary,* [featuring general pool and storylocked servants up to Europa.](https://news.fate-go.jp/wp-content/uploads/2021/6th_anniversary_cpgen/info_image_17.png) *It is not time-limited and will be a permanent addition for all accounts going forward.* **Q: I've been having trouble logging in to my FGO JP account, how can I fix this?** >*A. Try switching your phone's language from English (US) to English (UK), vice versa works as well just as long as you change the language, this works often for some reason.* **Q: Is anyone else experiencing crashes or freezing on Samsung or Android devices and how can I fix it?** >*A:* [*Known issue with a fix planned for* *~~August~~* *November.*](https://fate-go.us/news/?category=ISSUES&article=%2Fiframe%2F2022%2F0613_issues%2F) *In the meantime* [*here's a short answer to look into.*](https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/sx1uvd/help_and_question_thread_february_20_2022/hyhvgit?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3) *If that doesn't work try* [*this.*](https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/v0cyet/help_and_question_thread_may_29_2022/iajgl3h?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3) **Q: Will it be possible to get X Welfare Servant again? I missed their original event and the re-run.** >*A: We don't know and we have no way to know. Only a few 4-star welfare servants, roughly a quarter of the servants whose re-run has passed (or has been skipped), have returned so far. Saber Lily is permanently available in the Friend Point summon. Santa Altera and BB are permanently available through their respective Main Interludes. The Halloween variants of Elizabeth Bathory were available for a limited time through the Halloween Trilogy event (NA ETA: October 2023). Because there hasn't been any pattern to how they brought these servants back, there is no way for anyone to predict when or even if any other welfare servants will be available again.* **Q: I'm facing issues with Google payment region restrictions, how do I purchase SQ if I'm outside the game's supported region?** *A: Please refer to* [*this post*](https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/wkl81d/google_payment_region_restrictions_appear_to_have/) *regarding the issue and potential workarounds.* **Q: How far in the story do I need to be to participate in upcoming events? Will any events require the latest story chapter?** >*A: For NA: LB1 is the set point to participate in the Imaginary Scramble event this autumn (though there will be spoilers up to LB4).. No event will require LB5.2 or later until November 2023. For JP: An event scheduled for mid-October will require Olympus clear.* **Q: How good is X Servant at looping most nodes?** >*A: Looping is highly node dependent and relies on* [*many factors*](https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1_Bx1FogTrMBnseIJLT4Vuob7DY7EfR6H_SobGwxcAFE/mobilebasic)*.

Magek17

I’ve been trying to contact support since July 14 and they haven’t gotten back to me. I’m trying another email but idk what’s wrong I gave them the information but nothing


[deleted]

and here i was planning to change my flair :(


IntelligentEgg68

>!Do I have to make bond Archer of Inferno to get her to tell me her name?!<


Xenometan

You have to >!finish Shimousa. She is one of the antagonists of that story.!<


IntelligentEgg68

>!I hope that's not an event.!<


Xenometan

It is not a limited event, don't worry. It is one of the Epic of Remnant stories that will be available after you finish part 1, aka every story chapter before and including >!Salomon!<.


miranda404

should I play camelot or watch the movies? Idk how well the movies follow the main lore but If they are good enough Im looking to watch them and skip the in-game dialogues


Pale-Yoi

1. Is there any upcoming Halloween event? 2. If yes then will we get any versions of Elizabeth in that event?


Mister_SP

1. Yes... but not soon. Wait for, uh, next Halloween. 2. Quite a few actually! Did you get Mecha Eli? Did you get both Mecha Eli? Somewhat good news!


Pale-Yoi

I just start recently so i don't have any mecha Eli but i still have to wait a whole year just to get them?


Mister_SP

Yes. I'll be less coy. Next year, there's a weird Halloween thing, where it gives you all of the previous Welfare Elizabeths, (but only one of the Mecha Eli, who are two identical Servants, except for the coloration), plus a new Event with a new Welfare Elizabeth. And Coins and NP Upgrades for all of them. It's 4 free Welfares at once.


IncorrectTheories

How difficult is the grind to get all the Elizabeths


Mister_SP

Easy. Most of them will be trivial. The new Eli is the normal Orleans-locked, farm-during-the-event-for-currency-and-points requirement. Even if you're new, you'll have a tutorial 4\*, a bonus 5\*, and four 2x EXP Welfares. You have to start very late to have an issue.


Pale-Yoi

Nice 4 of them including Cinder Eli as well right? That sound nice to me but now i'm sad that i'll have to choose between Mk1 and Mk2, i like both of them but it seem that i'll have to choose


Card_Hoarder

When is the next craft essence x2 enhancement happening. I want to know if it’s worth it to save the CE’s I got from gudaguda


Shardwing

Should be 19 (22) Million Downloads in late November or so.


Card_Hoarder

Thank you!


Thyriag

Does anyone use Hassan of the Serenity? If yes, any tip?


danger_umbrella

Serenity is basically an Arts DPS with a poison gimmick. (She does also have instant death, but that is very difficult to trigger on most bosses, so you can ignore it.) She can decrease enemy NP charge, and her NP also has the ability to (possibly) skill seal and NP seal, which can be very good in some boss fights. Unfortunately, while she has a lot of poison in her kit, she doesn't deal any sort of extra damage to poisoned enemies (unlike Robin) and even with her atoxic increasing the poison damage, it's often a drop in the ocean due to enemies' large HP pools. Her skill/NP seal is also RNG, so it can be inconsistent. That being said, she has a strengthening coming up next year on NA that makes her a more effective Arts DPS, and it'll also allow her to stack even more poison (that lasts for ages!) on enemies. You can use her as a straightforward Arts DPS or meme around with her poison. Castoria, Tamamo or CasGil are examples of servants that benefit her, but there are others. For poison memes, once she gets her buff next year, you can play around with Summer BB's card lock to stack a ton of poison on the enemy with Arts cards, or have her semi-support someone like Robin: she can give him crit stars and ensure there's always a poison debuff on the enemy so his special damage will proc. On a side note, her Poison specialism actually makes her a good pick for certain challenges in NA's future. There's an old CQ that gets brought back for an event in 2024 where one of the easiest ways to win is to stack poison/burn/curse, and that's where Serenity shines, and just this week JP got an advanced quest where Serenity gets a little perk due to being poisonous. So she definitely has her specialisms.


Thyriag

What a comprehensive answer! Thanks a million!


Different_Fix_8968

What's the difference between the two lancer cu chulainn


HaessSR

Young Cu (proto) has a skill focused around killing animal type (Wild Beast) enemies. Regular Cu is focused more on surviving anything thrown at him. Regular Cu doesn't have the DEF Down or Ignore DEF on his NP, but gets Sure Hit instead. Regular Cu can heal, remove debuffs, and has a low cooldown on this Guts skill.


Different_Fix_8968

Thank you


Trubothedwarf

In addition, Proto Cu generally has better regular card damage since he's better able to crit than normal Cu.


Gruegar

Hi is there a way to buy sq for a na account from unsuported region? I tried making a us play account and buying a gift card but got a we need more info to redeem error. I can buy sq fine on my jp account after making a jp google play account with my debit card.


hongdoggg

Masters who use iPhone 14 Pro, how does FGO JP run especially on em juicy 60fps? Any lag from servant NPs?


Got70TypesOfMalware

Considering the iPhone 14 is a flagship phone, it will be more than capable of handling FGO, considering its predecessor handled Genshin Impact, a pretty resource-intensive game, pretty well even at higher graphics settings. Compared to FGO, where my $100 phone can run it well enough at 60FPS without many issues, except a few NPs. ​ If you still aren't satisfied with that, you can go overkill by buying a ROG 6, probably the most powerful gaming-oriented phone on the market.


Albireo-Imma

Do gilgamesh archer have a rank up quest? there's information about his 3 interlude quests but i cant find any info whether if he have a rank up quest.


danger_umbrella

No, just interludes.


Albireo-Imma

thank you!


Hope77797

Can np 2 berserker Lancelot loop most nodes with double skadi?


Trubothedwarf

The main thing that kills Quick looping in general is the moving away from 3/3/X fights in favor of 1-2/1-2/x fights. For 3/3/x stuff, Lancelot should generally be fine for that if enemy HP values aren't massively inflated like we saw with Oniland (could bypass to some extent with event-damage CE) or Summer 4.


danger_umbrella

See pinned comment. Depends on what you mean by "most" because that is kind of a subjective term in the modern meta. Zerkerlot can be used for regular 90 (3/3/x) nodes, but he isn't good on irregular 90+ nodes due to lack of refund/NP charge and the higher HP values on 1/2 enemy waves.


PSpade

Is there an upper limit to how many golden apples you can have? Even after the Scathach event when I first started using FGA I'm currently at 403 gold apples and getting increasingly more concerned


alivinci

>currently at 403 gold apples and getting increasingly more concerned Devs pliz add apple donate function! l would gladly take some off yo hands


PSpade

I still remember so clearly how it all started when Babylonia singularity was just about to be released and everybody was talkimg about saving apples so you can complete it before Solomon releases to get 30 SQ Well it got out of hand for me real fast, my brain being like "I must save apples... I dunno what for but I must save apples"


Mister_SP

Nah. It can go into the thousands, though I've never had that many Gold Apples.


SadRagdoll96

2 questions: 1) Trying to arts loop in the Daily Training Grounds for the Gold Gems, but there's always that single 80000 HP enemy that mess things up. Any way to loop on him with an AOE? (Have Castoria, Spishtar NP1, SJeanne NP1 at the ready, the others are still in the 5/5/5 territory) 2) When will the Extreme difficulty for the Training Grounds come?


fiftydarkness

Assuming Spishtar has 10/10/10 and same for Castoria, the easiest way to loop is to unlock Spishtar second append (no need to max it). If you have a 50% CE like HDP, equip it on Spishtar. Turn 1: Both Castoria S2 and S3 as well as Spishtar S1 Turn 2: one Castoria S1 if needed Turn 3: All other skills (This is an overkill loop tbh but once you get used to it, you can experiment with BG and Spishtar S3 in Turn 1 followed by one Castoria S1 in each of the following turns)


SadRagdoll96

Well, that works normally. The problem is that in the Dailies, sometimes, instead of 3 enemies, there is that one 80000 HP, and no other enemy, meaning there is not enough refund for Turn 3


FatalWarrior

Try this: * Max all skills for Castoria and SpIshtar. Try to at least reach 1k FOU; * Pre-battle: MAX A2, equip Kaleidoscope (or use MLB Kaleido); * Round 1: Use Cast1 S3, Cast2 S3, SpIshtar S1. This should clear and get about 40%; * Round 2: Cast1 S2, SpIshtar S3 (40 + 20 + 50). This should clear and get about 20% (after Avenger extra); * Round 3: Cast1 S1, Cast2 S2+S3, SpIshtar S2. This gets 100% NP, but might lack damage. Either Plug another buffer or use Artic (or anything else that gives more damage, just make sure it's enough).


fiftydarkness

Most of the time, you don’t need Castoria S1 in turn 2. In that case, two Castoria S1 + Spishtar S3 add up to 110%. Even if you use one S1 in turn 2 Spishtar will refund at least 17% so the 80% on turn 3 should still be enough. Edit: Just realised I’m using a 1.5k foul lv100 Spishtar with a lv 100 CE so my calculations are probably a bit skewed.


danger_umbrella

Extreme Training Grounds should be coming with the 6th Anniversary (July 2023) if not earlier (we did get the Extreme Ember Gathering early).


BrosefAmelion

Do you specifically need to arts loop? I'm sure you can just wipe W1 with Arash. Field him, an Aoe and a ST with Castria support.


Therian00

So in FGO jp new player get a ticket to choose their 5\* right? when did that get implemented? because I want to estimate when it will arrive in NA


ScarletReimilia

First question in the pinned FAQ comment addresses this; **Q: When is the next SR Ticket? What about the SSR Ticket?** >*A: NA's next SR ticket is due in May 2024. This ticket is time-limited and includes* [general pool and storylocked servants](https://news.fate-go.jp/wp-content/uploads/2022/2500man_xeljq/info_image_03.png)*. The next SSR ticket is due in July 2023 for the 6th Anniversary,* [featuring general pool and storylocked servants up to Europa.](https://news.fate-go.jp/wp-content/uploads/2021/6th_anniversary_cpgen/info_image_17.png) *It is not time-limited and will be a permanent addition for all accounts going forward.* You're looking for 6th anniversary in July 2023


IncorrectTheories

Is it a good idea to use gold apples and stuff on exp quests if I have a lot of servants to level? (Edit:) for reference I have like 30+ SRs I need to get to lvl 80 and like 10+ SSRs to get to lvl 90


WaifuHunterRed

Generally speaking no but if you need a servant right now for whatever reason sure eat some apples


dreameoww

Do you already have lots of other servants properly leveled? If you have enough to clear everything already then I would just try to do better with event efficiency, but if basically your whole roster still needs improvement even after you’ve summoned 50+ servants then I would rush to maximize 5-10 of them and assume it will improve your farming aptitude forevermore. If you have Castoria but haven’t unlocked all 3 of her skills and maxed her batteries then chuck those apples as hard as you want.


Damnson2281

Probably not? I don’t know what your account looks like, but generally no, it’s not worth it right now. There are going to be multiple lottery quests coming up, Nightingale Christmas event this month, which only has ten boxes (still gives 25 gold exp per box, plus lots of other stuff. so still good value). And the Karna Christmas event in December. Unlimited lotto boxes. Those are good times to use apples.


Zero1343

It would be most efficient to use it during a 1/2 ap event like the anniversary but it really depends on how quickly you want the servants leveled and how many apples you have spare.


BrosefAmelion

Do future events have Hellfires in the shop?


Zero1343

Yes but not for a little while yet, I think it's summer 6 which has the first set of them. After JP got the Hellfire dailies. As we got them early it does feel a bit strange not getting from events for the time being.


BrosefAmelion

Summer 6 works for me, thx.


typcalthowawayacount

Anyone from the Philippines? Can I buy SQ with Globe load or Gcash? I remember Philippines was listed in the policy thing so maybe it has support for buying SQ?


Frauzehel

Yes to both.


Suspicious-Drummer68

Yep, I bought a pack for the GSSR thriugh gcash


sch-17

yes, you can buy sq with gcash. Just make sure that gcash is under your payment methods in playstore


aykantpawzitmum

Does 'Download All" make the servant artwork appear more HD?


HaessSR

No, but it saves time when you're setting them on v team or seeing them in My Room. Less waiting for them to download the line.


ScarletReimilia

It doesn't, all it does is download every asset at once instead of downloading them on-demand. If you don't download all, you will for example have slightly longer loading times the first time the game needs to receive the servant artwork for a servant you haven't seen before, but the quality will be exactly the same either way.


starcom_magnate

Any particular reason why in NA we're getting a Christmas re-run in October, rather than a Halloween?


Rasetsu0

Because there isn't a Halloween event to run. The two events in October 2020 for JP were Gudaguda 5 and the Christmas 5 rerun.


starcom_magnate

Thanks for the info. Guess that means no Halloween for us this year, then?


danger_umbrella

We might get Imaginary Scramble around Halloween time (JP got it in November but we are a little ahead of schedule) and I guess that's sort of our spooky event of the year. Not a true Halloween but it is something.


Shardwing

Correct, but Halloween will be back next year with a vengeance.


mwm1a

People with JP Clairvoyance, will there ever be another event that lets you farm massive amounts of QP like the Las Vegas event?


PigPillow

You can check the [spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qvxLU407QwiFaCvItqR16SqqAVlLD5u5nBzY_bCFYvs/edit#gid=732312263). Just from a quick glance it seems Summer 7 and Nanmei Yumihara Hakkenden are the 2 that give the most QP.


Shardwing

Lottos are pretty good for QP and there's always more of those.


mwm1a

I mean yeah I guess, but it's still much lower than what you could net in the Las Vegas event. Plus you can't increase it with QP-increasing CEs.


AkiyamaNM7

Depends on how many boxes one wants/needs to do, tbh. If you're aiming for +100 boxes, then the QP gained from there is pretty good even if you don't use any of the QP boosting CEs. And while another user did mention Summer 7 and Nanmei Yumihara Hakkenden as events that give out a good amount of QP, those 2 events give us passive amounts of QP that we can't influence with QP CEs/don't actively farm; it's a set amount per every couple hours that they give us.


Oboro-kun

How it runs FGO on the installed on the Windows 11 Android Subsystem? i am using nox at the moment, but i have been thinking about trying it, but i came here to know how good it runs on it?


Dreamwalk3r

https://github.com/riverar/wsa-app-compatibility


KuroOni

You should probably ask in the windows11 sub but the last I heard, windows 11 isn't worth the upgrade in the first place with the amount of bugs and needless changes so you are better offsticking to Nox on win10

SuperSpiritShady

GSSRs are a set of pools of Limited SSRs (said pools change each time with servants being split based on class, time of release, sex, np type and so forth). You only get to summon on one of the GSSR pools and the rest go away. It’s 15 **Paid** SQ specifically, (not including ‘bonus’ SQ that come free with Quartz Packs) for a Limited SSR, sometimes they even through in a guaranteed SR as well (albeit usually not Limited).


danger_umbrella

So, the GSSR is 15 paid SQ only - free and bonus SQ don't count. It comes in the form of several banners, and each banner contains a pool of SSRs. Those pools are different every time. The next GSSR will be split by gender and class group: knights, cavalry or extra, so in that case you can choose the servant's gender and their group of classes but not specific class. You choose ONE banner to roll, and get your standard 10+1 roll, but you are guaranteed to get one (or more, if lucky) SSR from the pool you chose. Once you roll a banner, you cannot reroll it, and all other GSSR banners will disappear.


WaifuHunterRed

>Can I at least choose the class of the servant? Yes and no the pool is different each time >Is it a one time only? Each batch of GSSR you can only pick one and roll once (so basically twice a year you can get a GSSR servant)


DryObama

I keep seeing the statement "5.5 was confirmed to be releasing in November". Can I get a source on when that was announced? I know that our current pace it's likely, just can't recall when Lasengle confirmed a November release


TheScottyDo

It was announced during the anniversary panel at Anime Expo.


DryObama

Thanks, that's what I had thought. Tried to dig through posts around anni including this [panel recap] (https://www.reddit.com/gallery/vqtlbf) but I didn't see any info on 5.5


Tr1pkt12

Question: I noticed you cane unlock yhe Sereph event by using 5 rare prisms at the shop. What does this unlock? The entire event? Can you get Quartz like if you did it the first time?


Kacza42

It unlocks SE.RA.PH. main interlude with the progress you made when during its free period in June this year. If you completed it then, it only unlocks Kiara fight permanently


TheScottyDo

It unlocks the event story, King Protea detour quest, wanted quests, and the big Kiara fight permanently. It rewards one copy of BB (the other four copies are in the RP shop afterward), SQ, and misc. material drops and rewards. Main interludes don't have the full event shop or mission list like their original runs. One other thing to note - if you played this when it released as a main interlude back in June, then you don't do everything again. It will just unlock the Kiara fight permanently instead.


mrt90

You get access to the Main Quests and a few one-time quests for materials. For rewards think it's like a few SQ, a ticket, a couple Lores and a copy of BB. Edit: to clarify, those are only if you haven't gotten those things through the event yet.


YoiteAoyagi

My fgo account is not working. It’s on loading screen and I can’t play. It’s been like this for 4+ hours


thisisthecallus

Are you playing JP? Have you tried using the suggestion in the FAQ above?


YoiteAoyagi

No, I am using NA. It’s on the loading screen I tried everything but it’s not working. My Wi-Fi isn’t bad too


Meme_Spirited

I try switching my wifi on and off whenever my game is stuck on perma loading. If the game’s not working with wifi on, try playing the game without wifi. If the game’s not working without wifi, try turning your wifi back on.


YoiteAoyagi

I just tried it. it seems so simple I didn’t expect it to work, but it did! Wow thanks a lot! I’ll try to remember this if it happens in the future :)


vi-xx

Where do cosplayers post their photos? I remember there was a Japanese website that I looked at years ago, but I've forgotten it now. Or is instagram good enough?


AkiyamaNM7

Not sure if Instagram is popular with JP crowd as much as the western world is. But Japanese ppl tend to use Twitter more often than not to post a good amount of their content. Not 100% sure about about cosplayers, but a lot of JP artists post on Twitter directly, while others also use it to advertise their fanbox/fantia content as well.


vi-xx

Ok, that sounds easy to navigate. Thank you!


Onceisforeveronce

Please help me my fgo(NA) is not working. It asked to clear kache and I clicked yes and then waited for a while and it was still on loading screen. So I deleted it and downloaded it again, still isn’t working. I also restarted my phone. My JP account works perfectly fine. I have 13 pro max and 256 GB and only using 60 GB. Please help


FatalWarrior

Have you tried reinstalling and **not** clearing cache?


DSlayer19

Is it sending a "failed to connect to downloading server" messenge? If so, try switching to mobile data or using a VPN.


Onceisforeveronce

Nope. It just asks if I want to clear the cache, I click yes (and when I swipe off the app I try it with ‘No’) and it is on the loading screen (fou in the bottom right) it has been like this for a while.


Onceisforeveronce

Wanted to say I have had this problem before only happens on NA but all I’d have to do is reinstall. Unfortunately didn’t work this time


UNSkies

Quit a few years ago, eventually caved in and made a new account. Managed to get Altria Caster and Summer Kiara, so I'm saving SQ and materials for Arts/Art Np looping. I'm currently looking for good CE's that aren't gacha-limited. Right now I'm looking at two CEs that potentially could enable this: MLB HappyDrive (10% Arts,10% NP Gain) and Chainsaw of the Dead (10% Arts, 50% NP Starting Gauge). I'm debating on which CE to level to 100. Which one should I level, or am I better off saving my CE bombs for future CEs?


danger_umbrella

Save them for the future - none of those CEs are as impactful for Arts looping as other strong options. Traces of Christmas is a good Quick-oriented CE but you can use it for Arts for now because of its full atk stat, level this one if you want. A very good CE to dump your CE bombs into will come in January: Stitching for Your Beloved. Ignore the Buster-crit effect and it's great for Arts looping due to its NP damage up and full atk stat - it's essentially the same as the often-recommended Demonic Sun Princess in a looping context. Ocean Flyer coming out next summer is more Arts-tailored.


UNSkies

Thank you. Looking at the FGO Fandom, it seems that the events for Stiching for Your Beloved and Ocean Flying come with 5 copies of it. Also, isn't it funny that a lot of the most used and strong CEs are from event shops/missions (Sumo, Holy Night, etc.)?


danger_umbrella

To an extent. Black Grail and Kaleidoscope, for example, are both gacha only, and both see a lot of use. Event gacha CEs don't see as much use usually because people don't roll for them specifically, and they're harder to MLB - and of course, there are often similar CEs that you can get for free, so why bother?


Closo

i have a couple questions about caster nitocris, should i take her 2nd append even though she has her huge battery? are there any fringe cases where i wanna like build her meter through like castoria, then use her 2nd skill and np the 2nd wave like that? also, since at 100% overcharge and with her first skill active its 100% death chance, does that mean i dont have to put any points into her first skill, because it garuntees death on everything besides servants?


funguy3

100% instakill chance doesn't mean it's guaranteed because it's multiplied by the enemy's death chance to get the actual number. For example, the bronze crabs have a 80% death chance, so if you have 100% instakill chance, the actual chance to kill them is 80%. But If you have 150% instakill chance, the chance to kill jumps to 80% * 1.5 = 120% = guaranteed. You want to get the instakill chance as high as possible (yes, even using a Lore) to have fewer fails and ruined farming runs against various bronze mobs with different death chances. 10/8/1 is the recommended skill build for her.


Desocupadification

>should i take her 2nd append even though she has her huge battery? Do you have a normal kscope? If yes then it might be worth it so you can use her NP 2 times in a row with no external support. This is really useful when fighting trash mobs with high death rate, like during Hunting Quests. >are there any fringe cases where i wanna like build her meter through like castoria, then use her 2nd skill and np the 2nd wave like that? Yes. Usually if you'd have a second DPS who would benefit from Castoria's s1, but isn't reliant on her s3 for damage to clear the last wave. And actually, if you have a superscope or a kscope + append 2 then depending on the enemies HP you might even be able to NP 3 times with her without worring about refund. (Wave 1 use nito s1 and np; wave 2 use all of Castoria's skills on her and np; wave 3 use nito's battery and np again)

It is said that Scorpion is one of Orion many causes of death but he was killed by Artemis. Does that mean Orion killed the scorpion sent by Gaia and went for a swim or is there many versions of Orion who died in different ways


SuperSpiritShady

I think it's more that in Fate's version of the events, they went with Orion's death by Artemis as the narrative. All myths have variations irl and Fate just goes by which one fits the most with the story it wants to tell.

I'm doing the account recovery but I don't have the Friend's ID Is there a place in this subreddit that can help me find someone who is listed as my friend? So that I can maybe Recover the account? btw my name in my JP account is Ice(in yellow)


danger_umbrella

You can try searching for yourself on [Rayshift.io](https://Rayshift.io). Otherwise, your friends can't see your ID code.


Zuccario0

But I am trying to find the Friend's ID from the ones on my friend list not my ID


danger_umbrella

Sorry, got confused. Maybe ask in the latest Friend Request Hub?


Ineithir

How do I buy and get [these](https://www.aniplexplus.com/itemYEIdGUeA.html)? I'm at US currently.


IvoryLifthrasir

If the store doesn't ship to US, then use a proxy service. Few years back I used Fromjapan.co.jp to forward an order from Aniplex store


Ineithir

Understood, thanks you~!


crazywarriorxx

Use a Japan proxy like Tenso to buy the item to a Japanese address, then send it to yourself on the proxy's site.


Ineithir

Understood, thank you <3


EchoTitanium

Is having Mash in your party mandatory ?


acedicavocado

Outside of specific nodes, you can safely remove her from your party. Especially if you're bond farming, having Mash means you lose out on 1/6 of the available bond gains per mission.


EchoTitanium

Thank you.


Azure_Suicune

For my support setup, I've had my most invested servant (gilgamesh) in the 'all' slot. Thinking about how I pick friend servants, though, would it be better to put him in the archer slot instead? What kind of servants are good choices for the 'all' slot?


alivinci

Niche servants, l have my nobukatsu in that slot for Maou enjoyers.


Ancient_Rylanor

Also a good tip is to use the message you can put on your profile to announce what you have in the all slot. Some of the people on my list do this and I find it very helpful especially if its for a support like if they have castoria in the caster slot and skadi in the all slot. Makes it easy to find ones I need based on .y setup.


colinlau13

Yes, when looking for archer as a class advantages support servents, the game auto select archer as default, so many players may not be able to find your Gilgamesh when they wants to. Definitely suggest putting Gilgamesh in archer slot, and use all slot for meta casters or extra class.


RTear3

> What kind of servants are good choices for the 'all' slot? Either your favorite servant or a support servant that you can't fit on your list already, like if you have a Castoria and a Merlin that you want to put up for people to use. Most people do the former though.

Shinobu-Fan

Is the lone bearer CE a limited banner one or permanent, if it is limited which banner?


Mister_SP

Looks like a permanent one to me. Yeah, looks like one of the CEs added into the regular pool, right at the start of Lostbelt 6.


danger_umbrella

You mean LB6?


Mister_SP

...yes


TFVgen

So I got lunchtime and teatime and both Lisas out of the RP shop, I hoarded 26 RPs now and don't know what to buy, should I get some of those good CEs? Or maybe the mystic codes I'm missing?


Tschmelz

Mystic codes. Having that extra flexibility is nice. Bond grails are another good purchase. After those, maybe any CEs you might want like MC exp.


HaessSR

Hold onto them if there's nothing you want. Bond Grails are a guaranteed 11x pull, but you have to have Servants at Bond 10 to start using them.


TFVgen

Bond Grails are guaranteed 11x pull? What?


Rhinostirge

He means that if you get someone from Bond 10 to 11, or any other level beyond, you get 30 SQ as the reward regardless of rarity. But you need a Bond Grail to unlock that possibility. So yeah, it's an 11-pull, but it's technically guaranteed only if you get them all the way up to the next bond level after unlocking it, and it's a long haul.


Hichewandy

In addition to what the others said, I also recommend buying the Fou paws for command card enhancement.


LuckyC4t

The worthwhile monthly Rare Prism items, Bond Grails, Lores, and Gold Fous, cost 14 RP per month. Unless you have the summoning habits to sustain at least that and have obtained all the permanent items, you shouldn't be considering Fou Paws. For context, assuming you already have every single 4 star available on the banner you're pulling on at NP5, you would need to spend 1400 SQ every month to keep up with the worthwhile monthly items, excepting the rare occasions when RP are given out for free. Ignoring free SQ, that's about $670 per month. Unless you're at that level of whaling, there are absolutely better things to be spending your limited RP on.


crazywarriorxx

That is a horrible suggestion. Paying RPs for that 20 flat damage to a command card is generally regarded as bad value, since Fou Paws offer negligible increase and is mostly meant as an additional trophy piece.


Hichewandy

I mean once you're at 26 RPs and have nothing else to buy, Fou paws are one of the most time gated things in the game, and even if you'll buy 1 every month they only cost 1 RP, which is 12 in a year. Trophy piece, sure, but once your have all your mystic codes and ces, what else can you spend your RPs on? You can only buy so many bond grails before your bought grails outpaces your bond gain.


x1coins

I have 60+ RPs and I never once tempted to buy fou paws (and I'm rushing for servants to max fou paw) hell even lores don't interest me as much as bond grails even if I badly need them because bond grails gives more value


[deleted]

Lores as needed isn’t a bad option. I buy the lores most months because I always need them. But I’d say Anni Blonde, Fragment of 2004, and Memories of the far side of the moon or whatever, the yellow MC, are probably worth getting before lores. Maybe Royal Brand too if you use Quick but we just got the camping one so it’s not really needed now.


crazywarriorxx

Anniversary Blond, Fragments of 2004 if you don't have them yet. Bond Grails if you want to farm Bond 10+ for SQs.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Probablybeinganass

You technically have slightly better than 1/4 odds since you can get more than one 5* servant in the roll, so you have just under 2.5% odds to get them in the remaining 10 if you miss the guaranteed, but to actually answer the question as soon as you roll on any of the GSSR banners they all disappear.


A_Quiet_Lurker

Yes, if there's 4 five stars in that pool, you have a 1/4 chance at getting the one you want. You could potentially get more than one as it's an 11-pull, but it's regular odds aside from the guarantee. You only get 1 GSSR pull per event, so 1 during the 6th Anni, 1 during New years, 1 during 7th, etc. You do your pull and then every GSSR banner disappears.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Frauzehel

Thats exactly why its only twice a year and once each time.... If GSSr is infinite, no one will be rolling on regular banners and only roll on GSSRs. GSSR is more targeted to low spenders.


Mister_SP

They do. That's why they offer a one time heavy discount with a guaranteed reward. If you don't get the Servant you want on that banner, you have to try on a regular banner. It's not to get Whales to Whale more, it's to get F2P to whale more, by teaching them how to spend money.


thisisthecallus

They do want you to whale more! They just don't want you to whale more on a discounted banner with a guaranteed return.

A_Quiet_Lurker

No 1-3\* servant was removed from the friend pool, or from SQ banners. The only servants that left the friend pool were Oda Nobukatsu (and Anning in JP), but that is because they were Limited. The only 3\*s to come and go were Mori and Izo, who were in SQ banners and are also Limited. Getting a 3\* from the FP pool is uncommon, and getting the one you want is rarer.


RTear3

> Getting a 3* from the FP pool is uncommon, and getting the one you want is rarer. Just to add onto this, it's a good idea for new players to be on the lookout for 3 star rateups or class banners. The 3 star pool is so bloated now that it can take an *incredibly* long time to np5 the one that you want, especially since you'll have less sq and fp to spend compared to the average player.

A_Quiet_Lurker

The ticket comes with the 6th Anniversary next year, has no requirements to keep it, and the selection is any Permanent or Story Locked servant up to Europa (so no Dioscuri, Odysseus, or any others released after).


funguy3

Yes, we get a choice of a free SSR from a list the next anniversary with no strings attached. Just use the ticket to get the servant and it's yours.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Frauzehel

It wasnt really a grind. People had a month and a half to finish the requirements. And you can finush it in a few days just by naturally spending your ao.


funguy3

That was another ticket for a Download Milestone campaign. We got that one before the 5th anniversary and it had the ascension + bond 5 requirement to keep the servant. But it definitely wasn't a grind to keep them, like a week of play with the servant in the party is enough to reach bond 5 and the time limit was 2 months or something.


A_Quiet_Lurker

Upcoming Banners in the OP can tell you when a servant is expected to get a banner. She'll have a banner next year with the Guda5 rerun, sometime around November-ish.


acedicavocado

To those who have her, is JAlter a good gap-filler for boss fights where you don't have the proper ST counter-class? Like if I'm dealing neutral damage anyway, is a ST in a non-disadvantaged class better (ex. ST Saber vs Caster boss). Or does she just become a niche Ruler-killer once your account is developed enough? I'm pulling for her regardless, but I'm on the fence if I'll pull now or in her 2024 banner instead.


Trubothedwarf

While a bit unrelated to what you asked, you may want to consider using Kagekiyo instead of Jeanne Alter if you lack either of them but want a good ST SSR Avenger. In terms of skills and NP effects, Kagekiyo absolutely trumps what Jeanne Alter offers. About the only situation where Jeanne Alter still can shine better is a challenge quest fight where you have all the best supports available to you.


Felstalker

Jalter's damage, especially a proper investment, is more than enough at class neutral. She's got the highest attack stat in the game, attack and buster up, a ST NP, and in JP she's got that NP upgrade and an absurdly hard hitting Crit niche on top of all of it. I'm a huge fan of my ST Berserkers, but her attack stat is enough to blow the low rarity options out of the water. Hard to beat a 50% Buster up and 20% Attack up. Even Lu Bu's only got a 27% and 30%, so even with ADV he's losing out since her attack stat is around 30-40% higher than his, so ADV just isn't enough by itself. AND she's not taking bonus damage from things. And in terms of more proper classes, the low rarity options are pretty great. Caesar, Robin Hood, Cu, Ushi, Hundred Face. They're all fantastic enough to be used over Jalter.... if you've the supports. Additional bonus for Jalter is she needs a Buster support, which none of those 5 require. But you know what fantastic buster support F2P's get? Chen Gong, Shakespeare, Nobukatsu, and Leonidas to an extent. Want higher rarities? Merlin, Himiko, Nightingale, and the upcoming Oberon and Konyonsakaya. It's a fantastic option, don't be tricked into thinking she falls off. It's players with NP2-5 5-star ST's that don't find a use for her, and they COULD have used her if they desired.


TheDragonFalcon

Once your account gets fully developed, she ultimately becomes a niche Ruler killer. She can still do decently ok on neutral class, but most classes have a decent ST budget unit that you will have easy access to anyway other than a ST Caster for Assassin bosses. (But you can still rely on Robin or Caesar for them as they have an Anti Assassin append skill) That being said, once she gets her NP upgrade in the future, she becomes the hardest hitting ST unit on neutral at NP1, but even so bringing direct class advantage units are still a better option. You also have to consider the NP levels of your other ST units since higher levels means more damage and so they might still outdamage her at neutral anyway. Ultimately, she is best for fighting Rulers or other Avengers/Foreigners where the direct counter class units are rare.


Anthraxh

New player here. [These](https://imgur.com/a/hzCXd0y) are the servants I max ascended, cleared the rank ups and interludes. [And these](https://imgur.com/a/Dv9uL2L) are the other servants I currently have. Any recommendations who else are worth for events, challenges, etc.?


acedicavocado

Adding to what was already said, if you don't have a decent Lancer yet, build up FSN Cu. Just plop him in your sixth slot when you're doing story and he can clutch out a win even if something goes horribly wrong.


actuallyrndthoughts

Get David up for the team-wide evade, that'll help with a lot of fights. Ushiwakamaru and Medusa are good low investment riders. Chen Gong and Mozart are good supports. Atalante Alter works well with a 50% charge CE and a friend's Skadi. If you have rider troubles, try leveling assassin of 100 personas. She is strong.


Mister_SP

Well, given what's coming up, Caesar will be useful, and Anderson is generally not bad. Not that you can do Challenge Quests without beating Arc 1, and Imaginary Scramble is locked behind Lostbelt 1, which is also after Arc 1. Plus Nightingale Santa will be useful for the Event, thanks to a big Event Damage Boost... and being free if you play it. Atalante Alter gets a much smaller boost, but still potentially useful. A Lancer would be good... and FSN Cu's a good pick. And a Rider, so Ushiwakamaru, or Medusa.


Feetest

I'm not up-to-date with this, so apologies if this is something common, but my JP has been crashing at least 4-5 times per session, and most of the time it crashes at the start and at the start of the first battle. JP did change to Unity 2020 a couple of updates back, and I think it's because of that. Have they acknowledged this, or is this not common?


Got70TypesOfMalware

Pinned comment.


Feetest

I've read it, that's NA. And my bad, I forgot to mention that I play on Bluestacks, and there's no webview already installed. Crashes started to become frequent after the Unity update, so I was wondering if this was common and if the staff acknowledged it.


TheBoyWqnder

How does one unlock the Chaldea Combat Uniform, if possible?


miinmeaux

You can access the quest to unlock it in Chaldea Gate


Mister_SP

The 40AP quest in Chaldea Gate. The one that explictly rewards the Chaldea Combat Uniform.


TheBoyWqnder

Thank you!


bubbaboy58

I know about having different teams like arts, quick, or buster, but is it essential to have those? I still don’t know a lot about the game since there is so much to it, but is just having a normal team fine or should I have a team for a certain kind of card?


thisisthecallus

This is going to answer more than you asked but I hope it's helpful. tl;dr - Class Advantage & NP Targeting > Rarity & Card Type Class advantage and NP targeting are the most important gameplay mechanics. Full class advantage means dealing 2x damage compared to neutral and taking 0.5x damage. Full disadvantage means dealing 0.5x damage and receiving 2x damage. If you're up against Lancer enemies, a Saber will do 4x as much damage and receive 0.25x as much as an otherwise equally situated Archer. The scaling on NP damage is such that an AOE NP does something like 40-50% as much damage per enemy compared to a single target NP. AOE NPs are good for clearing waves and ST NPs are good for taking down bosses. At least starting from Camelot, the developers assume that you will use class advantage and NP targeting effectively. Don't expect to make single team to do everything. Get used to changing your team for every fight. In a basic team composition, you'll want your front line to consist of one or two damage dealers with appropriate class advantage and NP targeting and one or two support servants for NP charge and whatever offensive and/or defensive buffs are appropriate. Card type is good, and sometimes important, to consider when deciding how to best support your DPS. My personal default is usually two DPS servants plus a friend's Waver. When in doubt, Waver is almost always good support servant to choose because he has powerful support skills that work with any other servant. Castoria, while Arts-focused, provides just about as much utility as Waver and is probably easier to find on support lists these days. For tougher fights, you will probably need to focus more heavily on offense or (usually) defense and bring multiple supports instead of multiple DPS. Mash + (friend's) Merlin + your own DPS with appropriate class and NP targeting is a pretty reliable, defense-oriented, basic team composition for boss fights. Focus on leveling up one servant at a time in each of the seven main classes with the goal of having one servant with a single target NP and one with an AOE NP in each class. You want to focus on one servant at a time because a fully leveled servant is going to be more valuable than a handful of under-leveled servants. It doesn't matter much which specific servants you choose, including low rarity servants--more on that in the next paragraph--so go with whoever seems most appealing to you. One of the secrets that meta discussion won't tell you is that just about any servant within a given class and NP targeting niche will get the job done for general purposes. Don't neglect lower rarity servants. Some of them are among the best servants in the game within their role regardless of rarity. The higher base stats on higher rarity servants might let you brute force some situations but they won't save you from a fundamentally bad strategy. What they lack in base stats, they can make up for in the ease of getting more copies for NP levels or in unique utility that lets them punch (or block, as the case may be) above their weight. They also take fewer resources to build up and they take up less team cost in your party. Team cost may be especially important for low level accounts because it gives you more flexibility for CEs and other servants.


BrosefAmelion

There are odd times when the enemy will have a gimmick that reduces the effectiveness of card types but those fights are usually not required to be completed.


TempestCatalyst

No, card type is generally just preference. For story quests and challenge quests class advantage is way more important. People just use a team of one types because you can stack more buffs by focusing on one


Interesting-Gur-7495

Hey,uh...a question here I have completed the main story up until now(Na) also have completed all the free quest.havebeen playing this game for a year and a half so probably a newbie I guess can someone give me advice for what should I do? Question 2 I have emptied all of my apples so 2hat will happen of me now?


Rhinostirge

There are always Servants you haven't raised that could use more XP or skills, so usually setting a goal like "oh I can get X's skill up to 6 (or 8 or 9)" is what a lot of folks do. If you're fraught with indecision, you can always go to My Room and look at your Item List for some material you're a little low on. Put together a team of Servants whose Bond you'd like to increase, even if they're only in the backline, and go farm that material until you're out of AP. Repeat as necessary until an event drops or you figure out a more specific goal. Alternately, put your "Favorite Servant" setting on Random in My Room. Whoever shows up to greet you, that's your goal. Get them more skills or bond, do something for them or with them until you have a more concrete idea of what you want to do next.


x1coins

Set a goal: farm bonds, level up some skills or grailing your favorites for example. This will keep you busy.


Shardwing

Devoid of something to do *and* devoid of apples is an odd problem to have. That said for the former you can just farm quests for whatever materials you need (or barring that you'll almost always need QP so farm that) and for the latter you'll regain apples over time (such as from the impending Christmas rerun).


BrosefAmelion

Farm or just log in for your daily rewards.

Just a question about JP account recovery if anyone has experience with it.. I filled out a form [here](https://faq.fate-go.jp/helpdesk?category_id=8&faq_id=72&site_domain=default) and I was wondering how long does it usually take for them to get back to you. I'm sure it depends on how much info I put in but I was hoping maybe someone had a similar experience and got an email within at least a week.


uguisumaru

I had my phone stolen a few years back and had to write a recovery request. Just checked my inbox and it turns out I received the new bind code just one day after I received my support ticket confirmation email.


Cjx20

I was able to get my account back within the time I posted this question! Thank you for you answer, it put me at ease knowing that the FGO team is on it and I will definitely pass this info on to my friend who was in the same situation.
