Two 10-pulls resulted in Mochizuki and another 2038 but nothing else good. Not even any of the banner CEs! :(

Alterlanta is likely to be my PYO 4* the next time that rolls around.

Admittedly, there are no CEs on rate up at this time, so not a huge surprise you didn't get any of them.

All I picked up with 90Q was Caster of Black. If I don't manage to pick up the Walkure in LB2, it's gonna be a big personal debate whether I pick up the Caledonian Boar or them for the next 4* pick...

I've got a buddy who just started playing, does anyone know if there's a guaranteed 4* exchange for new players? Someone told me there was one after the prologue but I haven't really seen any evidence of that online. Did that get added to the English-language servers at some point?

As far as I know, the next free 4* should be somewhere around November. Then again, the last free 4* was a total surprise, so who knows really.

Are the April Fools Saint Glyphs Japan only, or how do I see them?

You'll have to look them up individually on one of the wikis, most likely. The actual april fools servant artworks have not been in the game for a while, although the artist does keep up with drawing new ones however.

Speaking of april fools... It seems some random internet user may be having a laugh with a look-alike account to match the FGO NA twitter page. Or it could be the actual NA team, but usually they do april fools stuff on their primary account if they're doing anything that year.

ayyy pinball for the EN side April Fool's.

EDIT: ayyy also pulled a Kilga, yay Nyalter

Mesarthim · « **Reply #66 on:** April 02, 2020, 09:34:25 AM »

Well I did my splurge on the lostbelt 1 banner and I got

NP5 Nyalter + 1 copy (first rare prism)
1 Yan Qing (np2)
1 Caster Gilgamesh (np2)
1 zerker Vlad (NP3)
1 Nightingale (new)

...And last but not least:

MY FOURTH WAVER. He is now np4. It's a meme at this point. I could've had NP3 anastasia. I whiffed. Atalanta alter was my target anyway. She is now Lv 100, NP5, and presently 8/10/8 on skills because mystic gunpowder sucks.

Aya Reiko · « **Reply #67 on:** April 03, 2020, 04:43:14 PM »

LB1 Summon Banner 2 is live.

One 10-roll for me; Nothing much to report other than a new Salieri. (Who'll probably never see use since I have Gorgon and JAlter.)

commandercool · « **Reply #68 on:** April 03, 2020, 05:22:38 PM »

I decided to do one ten-pull for Salieri and not only did I get him but I also got my first Waver. Aim low hit high, apparently!

Kasu · « **Reply #69 on:** April 04, 2020, 12:19:24 AM »

Opted to do a ten-pull on the second banner and landed an Ivan and a second Chiyome. I... don't think I've ever had this kind of luck considering I also got Anastasia at the beginning of the Lostbelt.

This worries me.

Neovereign · « **Reply #70 on:** April 04, 2020, 04:32:57 AM »

I recently got Anastasia with a 10 pull, then 2 copies of Alterlanta with the next.
On the Ivan banner came a silver lancer card, and my first instance of such turning into a gold. It was Nezha.
Fairly satisfied with things, though I really need to get more embers and materials for the new servants... And the ones I haven't finished maxing out. But there's also completing Camelot and getting more SQ... Ah.

Aya Reiko · « **Reply #71 on:** April 08, 2020, 06:10:29 AM »

Journey to the West re-run is coming up. Waver and Sanzang on Rate-up... neither of whom are Limited or Story-locked.

But one of whom is Waver and so is worth pulling for regardless :V

I hate Waver these days. I have him NP4. He's stolen a GSSR as well as my anastasia.

I'm not even a whale!

Aya Reiko · « **Reply #74 on:** April 10, 2020, 08:18:29 AM »

Maintenance has been extended to TBD. yaaay...

Let's hope it doesn't turn into another First Hassan incident.

edit-

~3AM PDT. Maintenance over. Yay!

I decided to do one 10-roll on the Sanzang-only banner...

Landed the 4* Event CE (my first copy if it)
... and a shiny new Sanzang. :D

Mesarthim · « **Reply #76 on:** April 11, 2020, 08:49:49 AM »

I'm not rolling on a thing until Skadi. I got 3 SSR on Nyalter's banner and none of them were Anastasia.

I'm going to save all of the quartz I can, and tickets. I could live without Skadi but I have NP4 Waver, NP2 Merlin, and NP1 Tamamo. I am basically completing the collection. I am notorious for Yolo's but as of Lostbelt that is now a thing of the past. I am very much pickier on banners.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #77 on:** April 11, 2020, 12:25:48 PM »

Now that I have Alterlanta I've reached the point where I am pulling once on banners for events with shops that I didn't previously do and generally not pulling otherwise until Bradamante in December. I'm probably not even going to go very hard for Skadi despite being an Atalanta/Okita main.

Aya Reiko · « **Reply #78 on:** April 18, 2020, 05:55:04 AM »

Apocrypha event inbound. For the Pre-Event...

* Animation updates for Mordred, Karna, Atalante, Siegfried, and Spartacus.
* A pair of CE quests
* A Gacha w/ JtR, Jeanne, and Zerker Vlad rotating on rate-up
* And a free SQ daily

commandercool · « **Reply #79 on:** April 18, 2020, 05:57:49 AM »

My intent has been to save as much as possible for Summer Ibaraki but I'm honestly probably going to blow a lot of quartz on the Apocrypha event. I would really like Mordred, and more copies of Astolfo are also a high priority. Too bad they don't share a banner as far as I know. I'll try not to spend any tickets on anything but Ibaraki at least.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #80 on:** April 18, 2020, 02:40:39 PM »

Yeah, the banners are Team Red + Amakusa and Team Black + Jeanne. Mordred and Astolfo are never going to overlap, sorry. :(

Good News: Astolfo will always be on Rate-Up on the Black Side.
Bad News: He will always share Rate-Up with Fran and Siegfried.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #82 on:** April 19, 2020, 03:04:15 PM »

Having Fran on Rate Up is never bad news, though!

commandercool · « **Reply #83 on:** April 19, 2020, 07:32:36 PM »

Having Siegfried on rate up is though! I've pulled four Siegfrieds already and I do not have a well-developed account...

Mesarthim · « **Reply #84 on:** April 20, 2020, 12:07:20 AM »

I'm not pulling at all until Skadi/3rd summer. I only have up to about 100 quartz again and 8 tickets.

Gonna be a long wait. I do have NP2 Astolfo (who I didnt have until nerofest and got NP2 less than a month later), and NP3 Atalante (NP3 before summer 1, but not one since). Fran has been bond 10 for awhile.

Kasu · « **Reply #85 on:** April 20, 2020, 03:42:48 AM »

I'm only gonna do an obligatory pull one the event banner when it comes out. I'm mainly trying to save up for the Third Summer event because I'm hoping to pull Heroine XX since I desperately want at least one Foreigner.

Whaaat, maintenance? Why is there maintenance? I was going to farm the event a bunch but there's maintenance.

Siegfried too! I think that's the lot of them.

Odd that they are (or were? don't know if they still are) calling this unexpected maintenance though, when it seems by all means they took it down to apply this quick patch. Maybe it was actually unexpected and they decided to slap these updates on while the server was already down? I guess that might make sense.

Aya Reiko · « **Reply #89 on:** April 22, 2020, 06:52:34 AM »

Looking ahead...

The equivalent to the 13M Downloads will be the last time to grab Kiyo Lancer, SurMoe, and Archer Anne Bonny
The equivalent to the 14M Downloads will be the last time the grab Caster Marie
(Summer Artoria and Summer Tamamo can only be obtained via GSSR after these Summoning Campaigns)

The Summer 2019 Re-Run Summon Campaigns will be the last time to get Summer Fran, Summer Nito, and Summer Helena.
(Summer Maid Alter can only be obtained via GSSR after her Summoning Campaign)
