Jason Kidd murdered my dog in cold blood!
She's actually pretty shit lol.

She's a good defensive Saber, especially since her kit is geared towards healing herself and surviving for long periods of time. Her NP is also pretty decent one upgraded.

She's not exactly a broken character, but I do know that on the JP side there were playthroughs that showed how she can pretty much tank bosses on her own for 20+ turns.

WHO TO BELIEVE

:p

I'll save because I used everything I had for Gil. I'd probably get more use out of 3 stamina refreshes than another black keys anyway.

No way in hell Nero is shitty lol. She is not as offensively strong as Alter Saber, but she is daaaaaaamn hard to kill. With the right setup, she is almost immortal and can even solo some bosses, in the japanese version people put her in higher rank than Alter Saber because of that.

And yes, she will get a few rate-ups later. But keep in mind that Nero is story locked, which means you can't roll her in special rate-up gachas, only in the story gacha. (for example, you couldn't roll Alter Saber or Nero in the Gilgamesh rate-up)

I liked using Nero in the Septem story stuff because you can make her Umu on demand with the command cards.

Still not spending SQ though. Maybe a ticket or two.

Definitely looking forward to being able to amass some ascension materials. Dunno how well my team will do though...I think I should really push hard to get Emiya's second ascension this weekend. Ghost Lanterns for Tamamo Cat seem to have stopped dropping after I got 4 though.

Ah yes, Nero Fest! Time to finally ascend a bunch of these units I've got. This is what I needed to keep interest in the game. Not even pulling with a ticket on this banner though, sorry Nero.

shhh Graham I'm still compiling this Radiant map
I'll be rolling on Altera / Nero for sure. I'd love to have either of those characters and everything else I'd want to gamble on is quite a ways off, looking at the JP event roadmap anyway.

I for Nero in the Redux fest JP. Not the strongest saber but very fun to use. Might do one 10 roll for CEs. Drop one 10 roll minimum every event was my initial plan and hope for some event CEs to make farming a tad easier
 
Been checking the JP Rate up schedule, and re-runs of Nero Festival have Nero & Nero Bride as the rate up, so will save for that. Tamamo, GARcher and Okita will be first

Alright, so how does one prepare for a rate up as F2P? Saving/collecting quartz and hoing for the best?

I'm F2P too and I'm skipping this event, waiting for new 5* servant releases and rate up.

Nero is only a 4* and I feel I'm bound to get her eventually when I go pull crazy.
I'm probably going to pull because I have a weak will and no self control.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
I want Altera...

Is there a handy table that shows which upgrade material is for which class?

So now that the Nero Fest is fast approaching, how hard is it to clear or gather enough to get the majority of items. Is the constraint AP or Team Composition?

Gonna save on this one. Ever played Fate/Extra and already have Altera.


Probably won't roll again until Jack the Ripper releases due to all the good things I hear about her. Or Jeanne Alter, whatever comes first.

Looks like AP will be the biggest issue, but I am sure you need an "okay" team to beat the 30AP one's. I assume you'll face something similar to what you get in the 40AP dailies.

Kind of what I figured, but was curious, as I focused mostly on Levels and QP during 1/2 AP promotion. Thus leaving a lot of my best Servants with only their first Ascension done. So looking forward to the event to try and get some work done on Ascensions for them.

Thanks for the reply...
 
How many medals can usually be gained per stage? Or in other words if I want to get all possible ascension materials how much do I have to grind ? :)

And outside of picture is that 5* essence worth it ?

Figured my farming schedule for the event, I´ll do every quest once for the rewards and then:
Qualifier - Expert for Claw of Chaos (need 8)
Main Match - Advanced for Phoenix Feather (need 5 )
Finals - Advanced and Expert (ugh) for Serpent Jewels (5) and Dragon´s Reverse Scale (2)

Hopefully I can iron out the bronze medals on the main match since that´s when I´ll need less drops.
Finals are looking rough since there will be 2 quests I need. Most likely I´ll skip Jewels in favor of Scales.
