Congrats *thumbs up*. I'm nearly there myself (93/100).

Yeah, Diarmuid was a pain in the ass, mostly because the only good Saber i have is Red Nero. The rest were relatively easy.
I'm halfway through Testament's fight, and she doesn't seem that hard either, yeah. Just more HP and slightly faster NP spamming.
Nice. I just did the EMIYA fight myself earlier today. Wasted all my Command Seals..

I have Artoria as my only good fem saber, but Artoria Alter and a Kscope worked too.

Testament is easy with a Drake support, if you haven't noticed.

The event made me remember how flat out amazing the OST for Prillya was before 3rei changed composers. Man, that EMIYA is still the best version of them all.

Yep, used Drake in every stage of the fight. The surprising one was Kuro, though. Equiped with Sapphire, at lvl 80 + max stats, her NP was dealing 200K damage and her NPAAEX chains recharged her to 80% right after. Kuro is seriously amazing, doubly so for me since i don't have the broken Archoria or Orion. I'm seriously thinking of Grail ascending her now.

Alright guys, I think I'm in a little trouble here. So I'm currently doing part 2 of the Illya event on my Gil account trying to finish everything up. But since I have to rely on filthy male power and supports, finishing this is gonna take longer than usual, and I don't think I'll have time to finish the event on my Okita account.

So if anyone is willing to assist me, I'll lend you my Okita account and finish the event on that (I just got Kuro on that). Once you're done with the event on my Okita account, I'll kindly take it back, and endlessly thank you in my sleep.


Edit: I'll suck it up and try and finish it by myself.

I think you're burning yourself out, mate. I used 3 golden apples in the entire event because playing more than an hour day was too much for me, and i only have one account now. I can't access the Nero Bride one anymore since it's on an emu, and i feel pretty okay about that TBH.

That number could've been for a non-event quest, i can't remember TBH. Observing her wasn't my intention, i just noticed the number when i used her at some point.

Her damage (at lvl 80 + max stats + NP5 + lvl 10 Projection) should be ~220k outside the event, if my calculations are correct.
I may go and actually test when i farm some event mats.

Now that i've listened to it a couple of times, it's not as bad as i initially thought TBH. The opening parts are almost 1:1 from the original, but with added drums. It's really underwhelming and made me hate the track and view it as weak. But then, when the track goes into the higher gear... it's actually pretty awesome. Take a listen at the part that starts when Shirou hits Angelica's displacement magic at the end of Crane Wing to Sakura's appearance. That bit was really good.

I was somehow disappointed in Fukasawa's rendition of EMIYA in the anime, especially after i heard his other one in Unite. The instruments just seemd to mesh together for me. Fukasawa in general can definitly do much better than what he ended up making for the entire OST.


ShadowfrostZen said:

Unite is Fukaswa's remix track for Realta Nua. It remixes 3 tracks of the VN, with EMIYA being one of them. From the link mira posted, it starts @2:48.

Unite's EMIYA was what i expected Fukasaw's EMIYA to sound like in the anime, but i was kinda disappointed. The 2014 version isn't bad at all, it just doesn't hold a candle to Unite. Unite is pretty much my second most favourite remix of EMIYA after Shoujo Shinka.

Yes, the short segment prior Sakuralot's appearance seemed like a refreshing take on EMIYA's theme; I liked it.

Day of Camlann may be more memorable than everything Fukasawa did for Unlimited Blade Works as far as I'm concerned. That said, I don't particularly dislike his work, the soundtrack had some cool and well-arranged themes.

Though, I feel like some of the best tracks were, unless I'm mistaken, unreleased. [Episode 9 - 21:20 or Episode 18 - 9:55 for example]

The game first launched with 3 chapters (0-2); Fuyuki (A.D. 2004), Orleans - France (A.D. 1431) and Septem - Morocco (A.D. 0060), and they focused more on the introductions, world building and the interactions between the different Heroic Spirits, so they were relatively light on actual story progression.
The later chapters began to focus on story more and more with each new chapter, like Chapter 4: Clock Tower - London (A.D. 1888), the villian was revealed and we got a lot of info about the origin of Magecraft and Age of Gods and the reason the world ended. In Chapter 6: Crusades on Ancient Egypt and Persia - Camelot (A.D. 1273), we learn a lot more about Matthew Kyrielite (Shielder) and get ready for the final confrontation with the villian in Chapter 7: Babylonia - Mesopotamia (B.C. 2655). Without spoiling much, that's the structure of the game so far.

Nasu originally intended F/GO to be a two parter (near-side and far-side), but he was afraid the game won't be successfull enough to warrant a sequel, but after the game's success (probably TM's biggest financial success ever), he hinted that F/GO 2 is planned. As @kei78 said, chapter 7 is supposed to be released by the end of this year. We don't know if F/GO would be a brand new story campaign in the existing game, or a new game all-together yet.

As @ShadowfrostZen said, the translations are scattered here and there. There's no single place where you cn consume all of the story in English, unfortunetly.

I think F/GO is great to follow as an ongoing TM story. It's been really great seeing the story unfold with each chapter and experiencing that with the community.

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanations. I'm definitely looking forward to learn more about Grand Order. Hopefully, this game will come to the west at some point. In the meantime, I'll try to consume as much of its story as possible via the forums.



Thanks @kei78 and @ShadowfrostZen for the answers and suggestions as well.

Don't they like the idea of making more money ? Yes, I imagine this game can be played with a bit of investment. That said, it certainly wouldn't hurt to have a more comfortable version.

It could be useful for those who started the game recently and have a deficiency in a certain class.
Well, also for some desperate old f2p players. I mean, I started the game more than a year ago and I still have a severe lack in good Sabers. Lily is a serious waste of space for a 4* TBH. Personally, I'd have probably rolled once or twice in Sabers's day if i had 90 or more quartz.

I thought it was okay. Throughout grinding the event, you got a lot of the items to exchange in the shop which was pretty useful. I will say that Kuro as a Welfare Servant is awesome.

And yes, I did manage to completely finish the event with np 5 Kuro on my Okita account.
