Izou look cool, limited and pretty great servant overall. Popular with the japanese.

Okitan being one of the most grailed is nice. She definitely deserve it.

That's terrible, what the shit

I don't really care about loli Da Vinci, but I swear this sets an awful precedent for FGO Arcade getting some Servants before FGO itself

Especially if they do something retarded like ''you get her for free in FGO if you play Arcade in Japan!!'' location-type thing like they did with those CEs for HF.

You just need to go to FGO Arcade machine and play the game. The first day will net you the first copy, the 5th day will net you the second copy, Field Da Vinci 5 times in the field to get another, clear all specific missions to get another, and lastly obtain that last copy as a drop in her special quest.


That's one way to force people to play everyday.

Guys, did I stutter?

To be clear, this evaluation incorporated support Servants, like Skadi with Sherlock and whoever you'd want to use with QSH.

And the moment we incorporate support, Martha Ruler is a better offensive Ruler than both. She has a Buster NP, 3 Buster cards on her and with a double Merlin, with a single additional 2030 for best odds, both Sherlock and QSH can't outdamage her.

And the gap between them and Marth gets wider and wider if the enemy is Demon, Divine, or Undead.

Martha has no means to attract stars to herself (beyond her Ruler star weight) or boost her crit damage, but thanks to Merlin, she needs neither and what she's already equipped with makes her the best boss killer between all three, as I see it.
Maybe add a few CCs on her 3 Buster cards for extra carnage, which is an advantage these two can't afford.

While I despise the Arcade exclusivity, it's pretty neat we got a look at Da Vinci under the Rider-class. It's always nice seeing Servants under different classes, especially since Rider Da Vinci was foreshadowed ages ago.



Unsurprisingly, her NP is the armored vehicle/tank.

Now I can't wait for that adult Avenger Chacha that's been foreshadowed in her mats. Just hope the stupid Arcade exclusivity trend doesn't continue.

It does potentially affect mobile FGO, which is the problem. It's perhaps too early to yell at DW for this because we don't know for sure what direction they'll be taking with this new idea of theirs, but right now there's two horrible possibilities that they could choose:

a) not make Rider Da Vinci obtainable in mobile FGO whatsoever, which means they're going with a trend of creating exclusive Servants people would desire for Arcade only, effectively alienating any fan following they have overseas (which is pretty massive. Disregarding shit like Europe/USA, their following in other Asian countries like China is immense)
or
b) make Rider Da Vinci obtainable in mobile FGO, but through a system like location scan or account info share that shows you've played and obtained her in Arcade so you can obtain her for free in mobile FGO too, which is even worse because it means accounts that have her would be exclusive only to Japan (and would effectively contradict their statement about other FGO servers like NA, KR, etc. having the same content as JP)

You might not care about Rider Da Vinci (neither do I really), but think of it like this:

Today its Rider Da Vinci, tomorrow could be Rider Karna (or any exclusive Servant that may be desirable).

I have sheit luck w/ limiteds, so this is a nice gacha. I don't mind getting dupes of my current Servants(NP 4 Hijikata, let's go!). Only Servant I don't want is Iskander. Not really a fan, his kit is meh too. And Da Vinci. Don't really care for her, kit is also meh(tho she has 50% NP gauge skill and is attack Caster so she'd fit a nice niche I'm lacking in).

Ofc, the only Servants I actually want are Skadi and BB. Wew, 2/43

Well, better than 0.7%

@mira-pyon

> You were never part of this to begin with. >.>

lol While you're kinda right, this all started when SHinso replied to my claim about Martha. I have to regain my waifu's honor :p

> 170% atk up
> 350% crit damage up

You can get this result only if you abuse Arts cards to spam his NP and if you abuse Arts cards, you lose on some of Merlin's buffs.

I think you're not only severely underestimating Martha's third Buster card, but also her Buster full Merlin-buffed offensive NP which QSH doesn't have.
Don't get me wrong, his native buffs outclass Martha's, but Martha makes up for it in the extra Buster card and her NP.
Also, to avoid RNG, you'll always be better served with more stars to guarantee a crit. 2030s are almost always used for the crit memes, so Martha will never be too starved on stars.
Honestly, you're not doing it right if you're starving for stars in a Buster meme team that you'll need a star absorb skill.

Assuming a perfect situation where
- They both get all their Buster cards every turn for maximum damage.
- 100% crit chance on all of them.
- All of Merlin's buffs.
- All of their DEF debuffs hit the enemy.

Since Martha's buffs are situational, even though a LOT of enemies fall within her 3rd skill's range, I won't factor them in.

For lvl80 Martha (NPBBEX + BBBEX + BBBEX):
First turn: 1.5 (2*[10,546*6*1.5 + 10,546*2*4 + 10,546*2.3*4] + 10,546*3.5) = 884,282
Second turn: 1.4 (1.2*2.5*[10,546*1.5*2 + 10,546*1.8*2 + 10,546*2.1*2] + 10,546*3.5) = 530,042
Third turn: 1.4 (1.2*2.5*[10,546*1.5*2 + 10,546*1.8*2 + 10,546*2.1*2] + 10,546*3.5) = 530,042

Total damage = 1,944,366

For lvl90 QSH (NPBBEX + BABEX + BABEX):
First turn: 2.2 [0 + 10,977*2.8*4.5 + 10,977*3.1*4.5 + 10,546*2] = 687,569
Second turn: 2.2 [10,977*2.5*2.5 + 10,977*1.7*2.5 + 10,977*3.1*2.5 + 10,546*2] = 487,129
Third turn: 2.2 [10,977*2.5*2.5 + 10,977*1.7*2.5 + 10,977*3.1*2.5 + 10,546*2] = 487,129

Total damage = 1,661,827

Note that:
1. Martha is more likely to get a Buster card than QSH.
2. Martha in this calculation is 10 levels lower than QSH, so a lvl 90 Martha can deal even more damage.
3. Depending on the enemy being within Martha's 3rd skill's range, she can deal even more more damage.
4. In case of an NPAAEX chain for QSH to get his NP to 100% next turn, you'll indeed get more ATK and crit buffs, but you'll lose on the Buster buffs from Merlin and the native Buster multiplier in that chain.
5. In the 4th and 5th turn (in RL fights), before Merlin regains his buffs, both QSH and Martha will deal equal damage due to him critting and her NP'ing in the meantime.

> Adding the 300% power up is like factoring in Sche's King special damage trait and then saying she's the best offensive Caster, when she's not.

Martha's 3rd skill covers way WAY more units than Sche's King trait, but whatever.

That isn't the perfect situation for QSH tho.

That's a perfect situation for Martha, who only relies on Buster cards.

A perfect situation for QSH would be one which has allowed him to spam his NP prior. Moreover, Merlin's crit buffs only last for that one turn, so I wouldn't be losing out on much by using Arts cards in any other turn. After all, QSH's native buffs give him +100% attack up to make up for it.

Let me illustrate bc you don't seem to get it:


>Arts NP spam for 2-turns(presumably some lead up happened before then)
>On 3rd turn, NPBBEX
That is,

On those Busters on that turn he should have the +200%(dunno why my original number was 170%; should be 200% considering 2nd and 1st skills) atk up and +350% crit up. Which I don't see there(might just be because I can't figure out your way of working out + you didn't say you were adding those buffs). >.>
Clearly you have manipulated the situation to only favour your waifu. :T


Also I noticed you used Martha's atk value for QSH's extra attacks.

I did mention his NP spam possibility in the notes and answered to that by pointing to him losing out on the Merlin's Buster buffs in addition to the native ones for 2 out of the 3 turns.

Under Double Merlin, a single Buster card (of the four you'll miss out on) gets a 150% buff in the worst of cases (260% at best), while an Arts get 0%, with ATK and crit being universal. If you want to deal maximum damage with him you'll have to use Busters. Using an Arts spam with him and Buster only in the third turn, compared to using Buster in all three i is such a waste, even with the buffs.

I dunno, a 3 turn (NPAAEX + NPAAEX + NPBBEX) seems less effective, damage-wise.

But hey, maybe I'm missing something, I just don't see how an (NPAAEX + NPAAEX + NPBBEX) is better than an (NPBBEX + BABEX + BABEX) for him.

You're still missing it, lol.

Ofc a NPAAEX + NPAAEX + NPBBEX is less effective


My point is:

Turn 1 : NPAAEX (50% atk x 50% crit)
Turn 2: NPAAEX (100% atk x 100% crits)
Turn 3: NPBBEX (240% atk x 350% crits x 100% buster up)<- Use Merlin + other skills here
Turn 4: BABEX(190% atk x 100% crits x 100% buster up)
Turn 5: BABEX(140% atk x 50% crits x 100% buster up)


The initial NPAAEX are just to set up all the buffs and aren't actually taken into account in calculation.

Ah, gocha.

Well, in that kind of absurdly perfect situation, yeah, he'd outdamage her lol.

I guess the question here becomes dependant on how RNG treats both. Would QSH's damage resulting from his very good NP spamming be enough, in tandem with perfect timing from Merlin, to outdamage a Martha who just has way more chances to land Buster cards and get additional buffs against a specific collection of enemies?

I honestly don't know the answer to that.

On another note, I'm curious if you tried a Jeanne/Merlin/QSH party. When I think of this party, I start to think that stall teams may become the new meta lol.

Hmm, I don't feel like it's an absurdly perfect situation tbh.

At least not as absurd as getting the perfect cards on the first turn to use Summer BB.

I mean, all you're doing is the usual NP spam until you happen upon 2 Buster cards(I illustrated it as NPAAEX for two turns, but that's not actually necessary). If you're using him right, you should be able to do that somewhat easily. Maybe use a Tama to better help the spam, then switch her out or smthg.

Tho you're right, whatever Martha could potentially lack in damage she makes up for in easy access. But since we were talking about raw damage here and not how realistic the situation is, QSH still wins this for me. :^)

>When I think of this party, I start to think that stall teams may become the new meta lol.

Is that even a stall team tho, lol? Considering how much buffs you'll end up stacking, QSH's hits will probably kill the boss before you even know it. I'll try it eventually, but I want to at least get his 3rd skill to lvl 10 first. Which will take a while considering I still haven't finished SIN yet....

My big favourite is still Jeanne/BB/Merlin tho. Can't get over how insane that team is for stalling.

Rolls Babylon Banner for Casgil, who would be excellent for my arts crit servants, Saberlot, Chloe and Nursery.

Gets Enkidu.

Hmmmm, okay, I can level him later. Not what I truly needed (specially with NP5 Janta just waiting for leveling), but...a 5* is a 5*, right?

Keep the rolls. Get Demonic Boddhisattva. Nice, Arash, Euryale and other benefit from it. Get's Hinako CE, which is decent. Ooookay. Get's a... Karna.

...Jesus Christ, this is the weirdest case of dumbest luck I ever had =(.

Then tickets gives me Astolfo and Beowulf, I already have lots of 4* Riders...and Herc NP2=/

Left with exactly 2 quarts left, will concentrate to save for Okita in the next 3 months. F*ck me. I will probably burn one of the new lancers out of spite to get Anniversay Blonde.
