D-did F/GO just update itself and STILL remain down? What was the point of that update then?

Re-post from the club comments:
They reserved a server with more bandwidth at Microsoft Azure to lessen the loads and even that crashed on them. Apparently it crashed so hard and so bad, they hired a programmer solely to fix that issue.

But Nasu wrote this, right? I'm skeptical about this one.
Nasu never went that route before and it's weird for him to do that now, especially with how Shielder was supposed to be in F/SN and he had plenty of opportunities there to turn "Full-Shounen". Willpower is not a thing, as long as you're not Heracles of course.

Her Shield being stronger than Rho Aias is a given though. She, originally, was supposed to survive (F/SN Spoiler)
after all. No way in hell Rho Aias is withstanding THAT.

Can it be on the same level as Avalon, if the conditions are met, that's the real question.
The answer is most likely a "No".

Not all the stuff is written by Nasu. he just approves it. NP descriptions and effects are written by VERY different writers to the point that sometims they contradict each other.

I'd say its very likely.
Don't you know? She is very special and important and so selfless and great and she is totally weaker than any class but perseveres via sheer force of will to protect her friends

F/GO's offcial site lists him as the scenario writer AND Shielder is his original creation. No one missed with that specific part of the game's narrative.

Weaker than any class, and Mary Sue don't correlate... Soooo?

Lancer Cu or Caster Cu? Lancer Cu has a possibly instakill NP and even if it doesn't insta kill it does a lot of damage, plus one of his skills if used on the turn before he dies lets him get health back after death.... battle continuation lol, idk if caster cu has it also.

Hmm. IDK. At least for me Mephistopheles NP fills up faster than Caster Cu's and both NPs are mostly to wipe trash mobs.

Lancer Cu is the best Cu tbh. Might not seem that strong compared to 4 stars, but has OP np((then again Sasaki is 1 star and holy shit).

Nasu is not exempt from shitty writing decisions("let's update UBW to the new generation that does not want to read! Let's give Apocrypha to a writer who has high chance to end it as a trainwreck! Let's add this awful thing into FGO story!")

I never said he is, but every writer has certain tendencies in his writing and follows certain patterns that suddenly deciding to change that after 15~16 years just feels... wrong. Not real kind of wrong.
His decisions with ufoUBW WERE correct. I'm not gonna blame the shows faults on him when he isn't even the screen writer and his new ideas were to translate his work to fit a visual medium and writing a scene that Miura butchered.
I have not read Apocrypha, so i can't judge the level of its quality.
And about Four, regardless of how much i loathe mascot characters, we still don't know everything to know about it yet, so let's withhold or judgment for now.

There's been conditions and needing some personal thing from the user (willpower or w/e) and what not before, but it depends on rank obviously, if it's only A++ it's not beating an EX NP no matter how much willpower is poured into it.

Aside from CS activation requiring the will of the user, i don't recall ever such condition being in any ability, with the exception of Herc of course. Emotions can help motivate (F/Z Kirei) or even evoke a power (KnK Asagami), but they were never a fuel for a character's quantifiable strength before.

Starts at 40k. Next level is 80k. I had two Stheno so I know.
And you can farm QPs 3 times a week with the quests in Chaldea Gate. There's one right now. The 20AP can drop up to 60k per run.
But well, it is better to save it and upgrade your NP later if you have some spare QPs or no more exp cards.

Another upside is the cost. "Kaleidoscope" takes almost your entire cost capacity (24 iirc) to get the equipped servant in, if you're below level 10 or so. I have it setting around and can't use it until i level up more so i can use one more servant with "Heaven’s Feel" in the party.

Oh yeah, did i mention i got this one too xD
