I am quite torn on whether to try rolling for Cleo because she's great and I love danganronpa and its artstyle, or to continue rolling for Merlin because he is also great and OP  :ohdear:

Tough decisions with their banners going on at the same time

If it helps, the Phallus Magus is quite abundant in friend supports, so you can always borrow him barring restricted support gimmicks.

Or save for Shimosa which should immediately follow the re-run.

Oh maaan the hardest difficulty of some of the nodes for this event are going to have amazing drop rates for some ascension materials I need a ton of. I'll be able to finish Astolfo and Tamamo no problem.
I made a PADHerder. It's probably out of date though.

From what I gather, the "Westerners Only" challenge quest is currently broken.  After selecting your party and pressing the "Start Quest" Button and after a little loading, the game greets you with "Party formation limits have not been reached" and dumps you back to the start screen.

Update: It's been fixed.

So much bitching in Reddit about this and comparing it to their FH Challenge Quest whining.

In fairness, at least the Gramps CQ was still playable. I thought the complaining about this was at least somewhat justified given it outright unavoidably crashed the game and was not a problem a year ago the first time this event ran. <_<

I considered a stall team but didn't want to risk dealing with Nito's NP (or Ibaraki's, to a lesser extent), so I just blasted through it as quickly as I could with start-with-lots-of-NP CEs slapped all over everyone. Even without using a boost item I cleared it in less than 10 turns. (IIRC my team was Astolfo/Okita/Enkidu/Tesla/Mash)

Granted, my support was a 10/10/10 NP2 Archer Gil with a Kaleidoscope, but still!

Alright, I beat Solomon/Goetia. It took me quite a few attempts to get a winning run, a lot of it seems like it just came down to luck on which attacks he uses, since he kept using his strong AOE attack three times a turn for multiple turns in a row and I just couldn't keep up with the pressure, but I finally had a run where he mixed in a lot more of his multi-hit AOE attack and that let me charge Jeanne's NP enough to stay afloat. I used one command seal for safety on a turn when he might have been able to NP me if he used his charge skill and it's a good thing I did because I definitely would have died otherwise because he totally did do that... Aside from Jeanne my MVP was Ibaraki, she just would not die and must have taken down like 2/3 of his health bar by herself...

On an unrelated note, did anybody watch the first episode of the Babylonia anime? It's on my list but I think I lost track of which streaming service actually has it.

Edit: Oops, I guess Goetia had one more final form. But after the previous one it was no problem.

I believe it's Funimation exclusive right now.

My best chance to try for Shuten until like January is going to be the 19th and 20th. I should have around fifty-ish pulls, maybe more, which I know is still only a tiny chance to pull her, but fingers crossed.

In my current misadventures with the Gacha, I've managed to recruit Gamer Inferno, Lancer Monk... and a Greek girl with some serious anger issues.

However my 5* drought continues...

It only took three chapter releases, but I finally pulled my first Remnant servant in the form of the Assassin of Para?so. Would've enjoyed Tomoe, but I'll certainly take this without complaining.

Unless something weird happens my next grail project is going to be Ibaraki. I knew she was good, but the further I get into the game the more I realize just how good she is. As someone who ends up playing a lot of stall teams because most of my rare servants are stall-oriented, Ibaraki is a Berserker who can go on stall teams and just live forever. Her synergy with Mash in particular is amazing.

Meanwhile, I finished Shinjuku and I think it's my favorite arc yet. It's so concise but has so much crazy fun stuff in it, and it feels like they've really nailed the pacing at this point. I never felt like I spent too long just reading walls of text without a break and it didn't feel like there was any filler. I never understood why people liked Jeanne Alter before now, but I think I finally get it. I liked Artoria Alter even more, but Jeanne is a fun character. And I'm not really into older men as a general rule, but Mortiarty Papa is preeetty slick.  :D :3

Yeah Ibaraki is really neat because her skill set covers basically all of a Berserker's weaknesses and she still churns out quality damage. You could do a lot worse!

I realized recently that I pretty much want her on 100% of my teams somewhere because she's so consistent and flexible, and that's what pushed me over the edge into realizing she needs more attention. She wants to be on offensive teams and defensive teams, and she makes a much better tentpole than I expected. The downside is that she's kind of a Golden Sumo hog, but who isn't? :D

Alright, I saved up 70 pulls for Shuten and waited patiently for her banner to feature her exclusively. Aaaaand... I pulled her after my sixteenth ticket.  :D

I was kind of figuring she would just be fun to have becuase I like her characters, but I just finished Agartha and Rider Of Resistance kind of kicked the crap out of my because all of my teams are really caster-heavy. So an AOE assassin to punish riders that are bullying my casters in difficult multi-class servant battles is going to be nice to have around. Plus, Robin Hood shenanigans!

Nice. I spent my only 30 quartz, and got Danzo; exactly the character I wanted from the banner. Sure, she's kind of pitiful in the DPS department, but Fuuma's mom will always be welcome.

In other news, the second SSR non-Limited Assassin will soon be added to the game; and the very next rate-up for the First Hassan is the last one for him as far as our Clairvoyance is aware of.

EDIT: With all the awesome banners upcoming and/or already here, I want to remind everyone that you should keep track of your gacha spending. Please, please, please make sure you don't overspend on banners.

"It was, in fact, not daijoubu."

No NEET-hime for me, but at least there's a bunch of gacha CEs (including enough Wonderlands to MLB two of them) to keep me company.

(Also I love Osakabehime's dialouge)

Agreed. Some of it's pretty great.

That said though, I didn't get much in my obligatory 10-pull aside from two Wonderlands and a Carmilla to NP2 my older one. Kinda sucks too because I was hoping for the NEET, but alas.

Two 10-pulls got me a single 3* Event CE and 19 enhancement fodders. ;_; This is my punishment for straying from the path of Saving For Ereshkigal.

At least five tickets got me two more 3* event CEs and a surprise Seigfried. The game player in me is displeased because I already have more gold Sabers than I know what to do with and I'm pretty sure Seigfried is lower-tier than all of them, but the collector in me is pretty happy.
