I have seen enough Myst videos to know that even if you do not roll for Hepaestion, she will come for you while you are rolling for other servants. A general pool servant will have to try really hard to distract me from the limited SSRs down the line.
How 2024 should be for a quartz-mindful player: If quick is your thing: summon Summer Skadi and nothing else. If arts is your thing: summon Summer Ibuki (and Lady Avalon, just in case you don't already have Merlin) and nothing else. If buster is your thing: just skip the whole year and summon Kuku and Tiamat next year. This is what Reason would say... But then, waifu is laifu. So who cares?
@@hustlazchris6972 About Arcueid, she's definitely a good 3 turn Black Grail Buster looper. However, she suffers from both a relatively low attack stat and a NP battery skill with a cooldown too long which forces her into peculiar team comps (like the double Koyanskaya team, with Atlas Academy mystic code, or a double Oberon team with Plug suit or it updated version plus another support that can charge at least 50% battery). Compared to those team comps, I think that the - let's say - regular double Koyanskaya plus Oberon is better. It may not do as much damage on wave 3, but it does more dmg on wave 1 and 2 without being so far behind in wave 3. Thus, at the moment i think that Melusine is a better omni-farmer than Arcueid. You could solve this issue with Summer Ibuki, but first it would be only a partial solution (since a double Koyanskaya plus Oberon should still be ahead in terms of dmg) and second summoning Summer Ibuki just to use her as support sounds weird to me. Better to just use Ibuki with double Castoria then.
@@hustlazchris6972 Problem is, if you got Koyan Dark for waifu reasons is fine, but if you got her because you wanted a high damaging foreigner for buster farming, i believe that waiting for Kuku next year would have been a better use of the limited quartz we get for free. Provided that the dmg difference between the two is not huge, but it's still there nonetheless.
Managed to get NP2 Reines and NP1 Hephaestion. With getting my Osakabihime to NP2 and Parvati to NP4 along the way. Used 10 tickets and 3 rolls. Best of luck to anyone rolling for the banner !
I like flexible and unique servants too but im glad I can get her thru ticket later since i spend all my remaining sq on Taira. Plus im planning to get Kriemhild so its probably redundant to get her now too.
I'd pull for her solely because she has heterochromia. Tempting as that is, I must resist. I want to save up for Lady Avalon to help strengthen my Melusine.
Eh, given that I have to assume to hit pity for the 3 servants that I want this year (yes my luck is that bad) I can't justify spending any sq on a servant that's best described as "4* generic decent dps".
I started playing FGO rolling at Reines + Astraea banner wanting Astraea 2+ years ago. I got Reines instead, no Astraea. Recently rolled again in Reines + Hephaestion banner to get Hephaestion. Again, no 4-star, but got Reines again (NP2). WHY. Just WHY, Lasagnaaa!
yup, Im rolling for just Hephty and not Reines >.> so far only NP3, HOOOOOOOOOOPEFULLY I'll get at least a 4th so the 5th can be obtained through ticket later on
Okay so the power mod thing in the beginning of the video, me personally I do not find them great at all. Often times power mods can be crazy against the unit with it, but it makes the unit restrictive to doing crazy damage specifically against that mod which I find lacks versatility. So I like general servants way better than those who rely on power mods.
This is like never the case, most have normal dmg but a giant boost against a certain type of enemy, pick like sigurd he has second highest ST saber dmg and goes even stronger vs dragon.
@@GS_CCC And then you proceed to never use the Sigurd outside of his modification again. And if the enemy isn’t a certain class, you’d be better off using a big type advantage DPS in place of him.
@@TheBlackGoku what do you mean? JP has ordeal call 1 Enemy nodes already, and we still have no lancer enemy node so if anything Sigurd is the Easiest ST saber to consistently use since there is already a node that the enemy is a dragon so even without class adv he is able to kill it. Having a dmg mod is just a positive, not that important 99% of the time but better to have then just deal the same as everyone else without also having a niche.
@@GS_CCC Naturally he can kill it, you can kill almost anything with nearly any Servant, but without class advantage you would have to see if it’s optimal. I’m not saying a damage mod is bad, but I would say a unit who does damage without it is better, because they don’t have a niche and you can use them in more places. A Servant with damage mod is great but for a specific use. A lack of versatility can be sad, especially if you enjoy that Servant a lot. Because what you’re thinking about is specific hard content, not content generally. A damage mod servant is a one trick pony, one who does damage without the need of a mod is a versatile and widely used Servant. Hell, two good examples are Koyanskaya and Castoria, who grant damage modifications. The mods in particular good for specific scenarios, but often times you’re never going to use them for their mods unless FOR those specific scenarios. If a Servant came out buffing PURELY with damage mods, rather than buffing overall attack damage or whatever, you can clearly see which would be the better Servant. Because damage mods are niche, depending on the mod in particular though.
@@TheBlackGoku bro, most of the servants with dmg mods deal the same as the others when they are hitting a normal enemy. Not everyone Musashi or Enkidu(has dmg mod), most have a similar dmg range.
Nuh uh , there are a lot better units and she will be in the free sr ticket and she’s non limited so literally no point on rolling for her when there’s a lot of great units that are coming or coming back so skip
In the last Month I got Melusine NP3 in 450SQ, Koyanskaya NP2 in 250SQ, Skadi in 6SQ, Hokusai in 12SQ. But I’ve spent 570SQ on this banner and got only 1 Hephaistíon and 0 Reines 😭

Got one copy and dipped.
Now for realsies no more wishing until Castoria.
Did 2 multis thus far, first shaft and then the second was my first black grail, I was way more hyped for the black grail than any servant 😂😂
How 2024 should be for a quartz-mindful player:
If quick is your thing: summon Summer Skadi and nothing else.

This is what Reason would say... But then, waifu is laifu. So who cares?
That's exactly what I'm doing lol. I'm skipping everything until Summer Ibuki and Lady avalon
What about archetype earth? And i got koyanskaya dark should i still Save for Kukulkan?
What if a Morgan re run comes?
Should i Go for np2-3s ?

Allow me a counter argument. I didn't roll on her banner.
I've since gotten her to NP3 while rolling elsewhere. >.
Managed to get NP2 Reines and NP1 Hephaestion. With getting my Osakabihime to NP2 and Parvati to NP4 along the way. Used 10 tickets and 3 rolls. Best of luck to anyone rolling for the banner !
I went for Reines and ended up with NP5 Hephaistion. I can't wait to get to use her
Got her NP2 off of 2 Kita Rituals. I have no Oberon, so an anti-Alter Ego option will be useful. Also, girl's hot (and underappreciated in that way).
would love to try and roll for her.... if i didn't throw all my SQ on Koyan Light and still not have a Koyan Light to show for it >_>
same 😞
I'm actually saving for Luvia a bit. She cute.
Thanks for the video and information. I got one copy of Hephaestion, and I'm debating whether to go for more or not.
Don’t forget we have an sr ticket in May and she is on it
@@allanfaneshs16 Good point; thanks.
Nah, she's free on 4 star servant ticket this year
True
Can't ascend her due to lack of shells but I look forward to using her. For some reason I envision her and Zenobia getting along
Really want her and Reines but my 40 saint quartz and 11 tickets said no :(
*Sees this years servant list*
HELL FUCKING NO SHE AINT LMAO.
I tried summoning for her before your video came out
I now have no Hephaestion but a NP3 Reines
Not even sure how to feel about this
Mission failed successfully
I went to Reines banner for Reines, got 2 Hephastions instead😂
I did opposite and got the opposite😅
I like flexible and unique servants too but im glad I can get her thru ticket later since i spend all my remaining sq on Taira. Plus im planning to get Kriemhild so its probably redundant to get her now too.
I just pulled her by accident. And wanted to see what she’s about. Asf of now she op
Got 1 after 5 10-rolls, ascended her to max, and am loving her!
😭 rolled for hephaeston got reines instead but I'll take it though
She is an arts crit maniac.
I'd pull for her solely because she has heterochromia. Tempting as that is, I must resist. I want to save up for Lady Avalon to help strengthen my Melusine.
I'm sorry but Bazette comes out soon so... maybe next time o7
Guess what. 210 sq later and not a single Hephaiston or Reines😢 that was my valentine's savings
Oh no 😢
I already have Merlin and Castoria so i have to wonder if i actually need Reines.
Clairvoyance kinda sucks for her since if you're saving for summer you should be getting a few copies of summer erice.
Eh, given that I have to assume to hit pity for the 3 servants that I want this year (yes my luck is that bad) I can't justify spending any sq on a servant that's best described as "4* generic decent dps".
If I didn’t need to save for Castoria I would.
Damn it GSSR, you were supposed to prevent this…
I'd rather roll for more copies of Astraea, but there's no way i'm risking getting more USOs from Waver.
I started playing FGO rolling at Reines + Astraea banner wanting Astraea 2+ years ago. I got Reines instead, no Astraea. Recently rolled again in Reines + Hephaestion banner to get Hephaestion. Again, no 4-star, but got Reines again (NP2). WHY. Just WHY, Lasagnaaa!
well I check and we can get her with the Free 4* Ticket.
yup, Im rolling for just Hephty and not Reines >.> so far only NP3, HOOOOOOOOOOPEFULLY I'll get at least a 4th so the 5th can be obtained through ticket later on
Did 2 multies for Reines/Hephaestion. Got 5* CE's. Welp that's that, gotta save all the rest
Did 30 pulls for her, got np1 Zenobia and Valkyrie instead.
Oberon is black grailable guys :3
Bro what's up with that thumbnail 💀

used 120sq day one for reines … got three copy’s of hepaestion instead
when are we getting a 4 star ticket?
In may with the 25Mil download camping
When do we get the free 4 star ticket?
Nuh uh , there are a lot better units and she will be in the free sr ticket and she’s non limited so literally no point on rolling for her when there’s a lot of great units that are coming or coming back so skip

She's good but she's non-limited
Worth your quartz? Bro why waste it if you can get her via free sr ticket?
Because that ticket is going to the Altoria that keeps evading me
Rolled 210 Sq for reines. Got np8 Hephaiston 😂
You shall not tempt me with such bait!
Arcuid is coming this year. Any and all arguments you make is invalid
Invalid? Debatable. But a back seat priority? It's something to consider with some key favorites coming out
NP2
The banner is not worthy.
Did a multi for her and got reines instead😭 4* rate up doesnt exist guys
Nah, she's bait, you''ll get her from just summoning on other banners
This
I got her today and it Jumpscared me. I'm happy now because I wanted her because she looked cool.
