Already decided that Arcueid is gonna be my NP5 servant this year (did that for Melusine and Morgan last year and that got a little expensive). Bazette, Summer Skadi, Proto Merlin, and Summer Ibuki I will get at least one copy. Kremhild is tempting. Managed to get Koyan Dark with 3 multis already.
@@KosheiDeathless Update: Got NP5 Arcueid, NP2 Bazette, NP1 S. Skadi, NP2 Proto Merlin, NP3 S. Ibuki, and NP1 Kremhild. So all in all, I got everyone I was targeting.
Kuku being Rayquaza is very accurate lol. As much as I want some of the big servants this year, I need to save for Summer Melusine. I got lucky this year and got all the LB6 servants and both Koyanskayas and I know my luck will run out eventually, gotta save it for when it matters, but maybe I’ll throw some tickets at Lady Avalon and Wu Zetian because I need them haha.
Green, from space, gargantuan damage, flying dragon. Yep, all check. Me and GF are saving for Tiamat and Draco respectively, but we will try some this year. Also, i'll upload a video talking about how many quartz can we save this year.
As an Ibuki lover I want to get at least np2 on her summer form, and then get at least 2 regular ibukis are on banner afterwards. I’d also love me some proto Merlin because I love arts stall
I spent most of my SQ rolling for Melusine so I have to skip Koyan Dark, but it’s okay since I have Morgan and Koyan Light. I’m gonna be hoarding like a madman so I can roll for Lady Avalon and Berserker Ibuki. I wish everyone luck! May the gacha be in your favor!
I feel some important context is needed regarding Arcueid/Archetype: Earth. Yes, she CAN 3T. In that she can fire off 3 consecutive NPs. She can even do it just with 2 Koyans, no Oberon, if you use Atlas Suit for the Cooldown Reduction to loop her S2, with can't be looped in KKO because it's 7 Turns. The big problem though is that her damage is LOW without being able to use Oberon. For reference, all the numbers I'm about to give are SiMs done in Chaldea App, in the Great Temple Free Quest Node with the 2 Sphinxs, the stronger one being at a Health value of 197,521, which from what I've looked into, is higher than what Boss Health would be in an Event Gold Node based on looking at Case Files Rerun and looking ahead at the Summer Event for this year. So it's a good benchmark node for testing damage numbers on. Also, all these tests are done assuming default MAX Level (90), 10/10/10, and 1K Fous, and with NO CEs for the sake of getting the Servant's raw damage, unaided by anything but Skills, as damage can only go up from there, and you shouldn't assume they'll be using Black Grail since you might be using Event CEs, especially during Lotto Season, in favor of it. Lastly, the random damage value on attacks is set to the minimum (0.900) to account for low rolls, and face cards were selected to avoid Chains (Mighty Chains were also set to OFF) in order to see how well the minimum damage is, as not to leave kills potentially up to RNG. All that being said: At NP5 with the aforementioned settings, Arcueid under her unique KK-Atlas System STILL can't clear the Sphinxes, only hitting for 113,387 (individual enemy, not total) and leaving the bigger Sphinx with 84,134 HP. I didn't bother putting BG or SBG on to see if this helps, because it doesn't matter. You still need NP5 on a 5 Star to still not even be able to hit for 200K Raw Individual under this low Cost System for Arc. Sure, BG could probably kill it, and maybe even do so at a lower NP level, but that then makes her RELIANT on Black Grail to farm vs. it just being an option when higher damage if needed. It's not a good thing to NEED Black Grail or a really high NP level to clear what is the "average" damage limit you'll have to deal with. Now, I am aware of a comp she can use that uses Double Oberon and has her at A2 Level 1, and New Plug will likely be well above Level 1 when Arc drops, but under this comp with a currently Level 1 New Plug, Arc at NP2 still leaves the stronger Sphinx alive with 1202 HP, only having hit it with 196,391 damage even after using New Plug S1 and requiring Face Carding. This comp also defeats the purpose of Arc, who has the privilege of being able to use a lower Cost comp as a 3T Buster Farmer. Having to use this setup puts her on the same level as the rest of this niche, and she needs NP2 and Carding to get over 200K without CE assistance. Compare that to Melusine, the first and only pre-Arc 3T Buster Looper in the game. At NP1 in KKO, she only leaves the big Sphinx with 39,583, which is easier to fix than NP5 Arc leaving it at 84K. Just using New Plug S1 at Level 10 (it's what I got the kill with, but the level could be anywhere from 5-10) underflows the Sphinxes HP to -9872, killing it at what is a Low Roll with No Chain, meaning this is a Certain Kill not left up to RNG. And while I don't have the numbers for this, my own Melu at 100, NP2, and working on Gold Fous has no trouble killing the Sphinxes without a CE as I've had to do to Bond Up my Ivan for his Interlude. An NP5 Arc in KK or an NP2 Arc in KOO in subpar in comparison to an NP1 Melusine in KKO. Also, I did a test with Summer Ibuki, again, 90, 10/10/10, 1K Fous, No CE. She does need Oberon to Charge her by the 3rd Wave (which is fine for a 2/2/x Node rather than the standard 3/3/x), and she does need his S3 to clear the Node, but she still gets over it with this minimal help (since Zerk Privilege). In fact, in another test, she can clear this Node with Reines as the Plug Support, leaving the big Sphinx alive with 9164 HP, which is still enough for the Castoria you still on field to kill with a Quick into Arts Card (which means any face card combo from the active party would've killed). TL;DR Yes, Arc can 3T. She can do it at low Cost. If you don't mind her hitting like a wet noodle and absolutely needing BG to get things done in this system. Otherwise, you're running KOO at the standard Buster Looping Cost, where she still underperforms to the only other rival Servant in the game right now, and underperforms to the other Top Servant of the Year. With all of this in mind, I can't agree on Arc being Number 1 over S.Ibuki. Zerker Privilege is just one hell of a drug, and being able to mow down a 2/2/x, 200K HP Cap Node as an Arts Looper where the only pre-Wave 3 enemies are Assassins and Zerks that have reduced NP Generation when hit compared to other classes makes her even better. Last thing: None of this would be an issue if Arc's S2 was 6CD instead of 7. Because then she could pop all her Skills on T1, and loop them on T3 for another 100 Charge and the extra 20% NP Damage that comes with it while ALSO having complete Freedom in what Mystic Code you want to use, since you don't need Plug for Oberon (unless low damage comes up) nor do you need Atlas for CDR. I can only assume the High CD is to be in line with Rapid Words of Divine, but that Skill at Rank B hits 100 at Level 8, and Rank A at Level 4. Breath of the Planet is more comparable to Melusine's Ray Horizon, which cooldowns in 5 Turns while charging 100 meter or granting 30% NP Damage based on her form. And while she's far from being out, Summer Melusine's Blue Horizon gets both the Charge (reduced to 80 MAX) and the NP Damage on a 6 Turn Cooldown, and would've made her busted if she was still a Buster user since she could loop that. So there's no good reason Arc's Charge isn't a 6T, and it not being one heavily neuters her as a farmer based on damage numbers. Actual Last Thing: I did do some testing with Super Black Grail in KK-Atlas. Arc still needs to be NP3 and Level 100 minimum to kill the Sphinxes. To do what Melusine and S. Ibuki can do for way less, be it lower NP levels, lower Level, weaker CEs or none at all, or some combination of the 3 just because they use KKO.
Yup. For Damage reasons, Arc should not be number 1. Might not even beat Koyan and Skadi. IF her name wasn't Arcueid, the one unit people begged for years to receive a collab, FGO x Tsukihime. And it finally happened, her kit could be better, specially her cooldown. But it is not just about the damage, it's the character. Also, i read tou tested double Oberon. The comp i had in mind, without plug, would be Arc and 2 Oberon. With append 2 at lv1. Using both Oberons S1 at turn 1, together with one of their S2 at Oberon. He clears wave 1. Wave 2. She uses her Np with 1 Oberon S2. Wave 3. She uses her 3 skills, and both Oberons buster buffs + the dmg mystic code. I dunno if this is the best comp for her. Like i said, it wasn't about the damage. It was about the character. But great research nonetheless, it will help people when building their comps with arcueid.
@keroro407 We need someone that can make waves after waves of water damage. I would say either Summer Ibuki (as she is part animal) or Summer Jeanne (as she even rides a whale). As for Groudon, could be Barghest, Big, set the sun up, gets lots of buffs. What about you ?
Honestly I'd say the only servant I really want to get out of this year is Melt during her re-run in February. Getting her up to NP3 or so would be nice. Great girl that still does good work. Might throw some quartz at Proto Merlin for the extra arts support. But we'll see. 2025 looks absolutely nuts. I'll need a year's worth of quartz for characters like Draco, Tiamat, Summer Melusine, etc.
Good luck for Melt, i also like her as a whole. As for the quartz, i will soon upload a vid about how much quartz can we save until summer, then maybe until next year as well.
Lady Avalon and Summer Skadi are my #1 and #2 picks for the year. Summer Ibuki will get a pass... my NP5 120 Spishtar will work just fine thanks :) Arcueid is pretty awesome but I (and a whole lot of others) would put her behind Summer Ibuki as #1 to pickup this year, even though I'm not rolling for either.
Going to summon for Fox girl of light to get NP 2 tho I will save to get Castor Castoria but now I want that Moon Cancer servent so I will save after Fox girl
Summer Ibuki, I think. Might even swing Np 2. I will have enough to pity, should it come to that. And, if I get that early enough, I can take a swing at Lady Avalon. After that, not touching gacha till Draco comes out.
Still Saving for F2P NP5 Arcueid. (Edit) I'm gonna miss a lot brilliant servants but I'm willing to go all out for the OG! Please wish me luck there's still chance I only get pity.
I'm editing right now the "how many quartz can you save until arcueid" video. It will be a long one, hopefully you will watch it. But let me give you a free spoiler. We will get Over 700 sqs and 150 tickets. Didn't accounted the strengthening quests or new interludes (as it changes from people to people).
@@KosheiDeathless thank you for the early info! I'll definitely check out that video for your more detailed explanation. Arcueid is awesome and I'm glad she got so much love in her fgo adaptation!
I think the number 1 is summer ibuki.. archetpe earth is behind summer servant, why? Because the Long CD, so don't applicable to double koyanskaya and oberon, and then the bad class, if at least Avenger or berserker.
I agree about that. The only thing that kept me from doing so was that Arc can 3t farm with almost no investment. While Ibuki you always need castoria. Or the others need koyanskaya. For a beginner, Arc is kinda like Melusine, she just rolls on her own.
Can we stop pretending Moon Cancer is a bad class? It's not, especially in the context of Omnifarming where Class Advantage doesn't matter. Saber, Lancer, Archer, and Rider get walled by a single, common Class. Assassin and Caster have the same issue plus they have low damage modifiers that make them hit weaker than an equivalent Servant of a different Class. And Foreigner has unnecessary Advantage over Zerks, which EVERYTHING has Advantage over. And then you have Alter Ego and Pretender, who get walled by a whole 3 classes. Moon Cancer is an average Class, not having any good or bad matchups that matter. The only better Classes are Foreigner (marginally), Rulers and Avengers, and of course, Zerks. It's EASILY better than Alter Ego and Pretender, and as far as Omnifarming goes, doesn't get walled like the main 6.
@@KosheiDeathless tbf, earth need koyanskaya, just like s.ibuki need castoria..so, ITS same.. also, to omny farming, you need high np..so ITS same, high Investment,must at least np3 to be omnifarm..also, i am have sq at koyanskaya light ( with ticket) maybe equal around 400 sq, must i try summon koyanskaya light or waiting at December?
@@uzumakiyuuki3454 Statistically speaking, 300 is the amount to "guarantee" an SSR. By which I mean if the rate is 1%, then 100 Pulls SHOULD statistically net you one. Emphasis on SHOULD, because that's not guaranteed to happen, and likely won't happen. Just know that if you did 100 Pulls and didn't at least get an SSR, the game is trolling you.
So the reason why I play JP again was because of Arcuied. But Bazett, Charlie, Kriemhild, Arcuied, Proto Merlin, Summer Skadi, Quick Berserker (Forgot her name), and Huyan Zhou are my targets for the year. I love Ibuki, but I'm not going to roll for her Berserker because I really don't need her personally. Skadi is my personal roll this year. It's the year of the quick for me.
@@KosheiDeathless Kuku is a NP5 target for me, personally, but I am also rolling for Tiamat and Draco especially because I don't have a Nero at all, and DMC references lol. Durga/Kali for so many personal reasons, Tonelico, Baobhan Sith, and Kenshin.
Just got koyan dark and taira Still have 500sq left My main targets this year are Arjuna alter (yes still him), ibuki and skadi summer, muramasa and if possible bazzet as well Hope i could atleast get 3 out of those mentioned Well can't exhaust the resources too much either cause then I'll have little to no backup for kukul
Artist: Drill_bulbul You can find it easily in danbooru. And yes, this year is not that meta relevant also... besides Skadi, Ibuki and Arc. Now, 2025 is a whole new story.
Hello im a new player who just started this year! Im trying to build up my team and wondering which one of thse units will benefit my acc the most? I currently have dark koyan, melusine and zhugeliang . 4star is saber lily. I love pulling ffor meta so who do you think will be best?
Melusine is already the top of the top of the meta. You can watch my videos about how to use her and my boss fight videos. As for what else can you pull. I would say Castoria, Light Koyan and Oberon. Then you're set up for life and can pull whichever units you preffer. Although i would recomend Summer Ibuki as well.
The summer is a treat for me and not because of the 5* I'm more hyper for the 4* there like erice avenger , Gareth is best girl so a must and the one that is I must Wu zetian caster
@@KosheiDeathless indeed, I am just hoping by getting both her and ruler skiadi I can improve my quick and arts ability since I already got cashtoria and skiadi
@@KosheiDeathless true, thankfully that way I wont need to invest into many servants lmao. May, june, august and october are gonna be my stressful months this year oh boi
Until chole summer is released she is the best buster unit that can loop with blackgrail, even better the melu. And melu already the top tier buster unit.
@@user-ft1ru8jv1zObjectively not true, even with a black grail she can’t even out damage most buster servants who need a 50% charge ce let alone melu or Tiamat with black grail who absolutely blow her out of the water.
@@6ToesHeACreatureArc’s 100% self charge and 30% charge for allies is very valuable as a multicore farmer while Melusine is a pure single core farmer in most cases. You don’t expect to use Arc’s NP to clear the final wave unless w3 has chaotic bosses.
@@6ToesHeACreature Yeah i know she doesn't work with Koyanskasa of Light and Oberon combo due to her long cooldown. So her dmg output couldn't as high as Melu in last turn. But using her with the CD decrease Mystic Code and Koyan is still to good to go. 30% Card dmg Up (Or 90% Cause i pretty sure it doesn't stack able put this if i am mistake), 60% attack up, 40% Np up, 20% defend down and 60 to 80% NP up from Blackgrail dmg (Maybe 100% dmg up in some event). Put it all we have 210%~230% total dmg up on her own and with Chaotic enemy she will get x1,5 dmg. So her dmg out put with buff combine with koyan is about 310%~330% and with chaotic enemy it even higher (Can't work with Oberon in Farming so we won't call him out). Not only that she also charge 100% Np to Koyan (With 0 Ce or Passive skill) and that is alot of dmg. While Melu is 40% x2 = 80% attack up, 60% buster up and 30% Np up = 170% Total Dmg Up (Yeah she is insane i know). With black grail it could be 230%~250% Total dmg up for NP. And then we have oberon to buff her with (30%+30%+80%)x2 = 280%Np dmg up and 50% Buster up, and she somehow still have higher attack stat lol. The only problem with melu is having Oberon or not. Cause with out him she kinda mid, Conclusion Oberon is Op at fux.
Yeah I pretty much use new years rolls as a prediction for how the year will go. Last year...holy crap... to be clear I got EVERY Avalon le fae unit, SABER, and an anniversary paid roll I was aiming for. And somehow also managed to get a late Summer Kiara. 2021...New Years was full of salt. And so was the year. 2024...had to grind quartz collecting for 2 more 10 rolls but got Darkness. So that just means "You will have a good year so long as you put in a decent effort. PS, dont make any investments." Paid Roll was salty.
@@CircuitReborn lmao. I wanted nothing during this paid banner. I got everything i wanted last year. 2 morgan, 2 mel, koyan, oberon, 2 koyan dark (technically this year?

Morgan's not Meta outside of the CQ cheese she doesn't with Castoria and Merlin, but if you have the other two (which you probably do since they're older), you can just borrow Morgan off Support. Plus Himiko fills a similar role in that comp. Morgan's not in the same league as those other 4. No one can do KoyanLight's, Oberon's, and Castoria's jobs, and the ones that can match Melusine are Arts Servants, or aren't out yet (and some still aren't as good as Melu). There's replacements for Morgan in farming both in and out of Card Type.
Morgan's damage and np batteries are still very good imo. Yes, there are arts berserkers. But morgan can enjoy using black grail, 2 koyans and oberon while hitting 3 waves. But i get your point nonetheless.
@@KosheiDeathless How does Morgan Black Grail Loop? She shouldn't be able to according to the math (She gives herself 100 from her loopable Skills, the Koyans give another 100, and Oberon only gives 70, totalling to 270, 290 if you MAX A2 her, which I think messes with her Turn 2 meter gain).
@@espurrseyes42 i made a video about this, she needs habetrot or any other unit that can die turn 1 with a regular battle of camlam CE. That's enough to enable the 300% charge

Shout out to my girl Sen No Rikyu!
Yoo, not forgot her, but i couldn't fit everyone now. But i will for sure talk about her when we are closer to her banner.
I feel some important context is needed regarding Arcueid/Archetype: Earth. Yes, she CAN 3T. In that she can fire off 3 consecutive NPs. She can even do it just with 2 Koyans, no Oberon, if you use Atlas Suit for the Cooldown Reduction to loop her S2, with can't be looped in KKO because it's 7 Turns. The big problem though is that her damage is LOW without being able to use Oberon.
For reference, all the numbers I'm about to give are SiMs done in Chaldea App, in the Great Temple Free Quest Node with the 2 Sphinxs, the stronger one being at a Health value of 197,521, which from what I've looked into, is higher than what Boss Health would be in an Event Gold Node based on looking at Case Files Rerun and looking ahead at the Summer Event for this year. So it's a good benchmark node for testing damage numbers on.
Also, all these tests are done assuming default MAX Level (90), 10/10/10, and 1K Fous, and with NO CEs for the sake of getting the Servant's raw damage, unaided by anything but Skills, as damage can only go up from there, and you shouldn't assume they'll be using Black Grail since you might be using Event CEs, especially during Lotto Season, in favor of it. Lastly, the random damage value on attacks is set to the minimum (0.900) to account for low rolls, and face cards were selected to avoid Chains (Mighty Chains were also set to OFF) in order to see how well the minimum damage is, as not to leave kills potentially up to RNG. All that being said:
At NP5 with the aforementioned settings, Arcueid under her unique KK-Atlas System STILL can't clear the Sphinxes, only hitting for 113,387 (individual enemy, not total) and leaving the bigger Sphinx with 84,134 HP. I didn't bother putting BG or SBG on to see if this helps, because it doesn't matter. You still need NP5 on a 5 Star to still not even be able to hit for 200K Raw Individual under this low Cost System for Arc. Sure, BG could probably kill it, and maybe even do so at a lower NP level, but that then makes her RELIANT on Black Grail to farm vs. it just being an option when higher damage if needed. It's not a good thing to NEED Black Grail or a really high NP level to clear what is the "average" damage limit you'll have to deal with.
Now, I am aware of a comp she can use that uses Double Oberon and has her at A2 Level 1, and New Plug will likely be well above Level 1 when Arc drops, but under this comp with a currently Level 1 New Plug, Arc at NP2 still leaves the stronger Sphinx alive with 1202 HP, only having hit it with 196,391 damage even after using New Plug S1 and requiring Face Carding. This comp also defeats the purpose of Arc, who has the privilege of being able to use a lower Cost comp as a 3T Buster Farmer. Having to use this setup puts her on the same level as the rest of this niche, and she needs NP2 and Carding to get over 200K without CE assistance.
Compare that to Melusine, the first and only pre-Arc 3T Buster Looper in the game. At NP1 in KKO, she only leaves the big Sphinx with 39,583, which is easier to fix than NP5 Arc leaving it at 84K. Just using New Plug S1 at Level 10 (it's what I got the kill with, but the level could be anywhere from 5-10) underflows the Sphinxes HP to -9872, killing it at what is a Low Roll with No Chain, meaning this is a Certain Kill not left up to RNG. And while I don't have the numbers for this, my own Melu at 100, NP2, and working on Gold Fous has no trouble killing the Sphinxes without a CE as I've had to do to Bond Up my Ivan for his Interlude. An NP5 Arc in KK or an NP2 Arc in KOO in subpar in comparison to an NP1 Melusine in KKO.
Also, I did a test with Summer Ibuki, again, 90, 10/10/10, 1K Fous, No CE. She does need Oberon to Charge her by the 3rd Wave (which is fine for a 2/2/x Node rather than the standard 3/3/x), and she does need his S3 to clear the Node, but she still gets over it with this minimal help (since Zerk Privilege). In fact, in another test, she can clear this Node with Reines as the Plug Support, leaving the big Sphinx alive with 9164 HP, which is still enough for the Castoria you still on field to kill with a Quick into Arts Card (which means any face card combo from the active party would've killed).
TL;DR Yes, Arc can 3T. She can do it at low Cost. If you don't mind her hitting like a wet noodle and absolutely needing BG to get things done in this system. Otherwise, you're running KOO at the standard Buster Looping Cost, where she still underperforms to the only other rival Servant in the game right now, and underperforms to the other Top Servant of the Year. With all of this in mind, I can't agree on Arc being Number 1 over S.Ibuki. Zerker Privilege is just one hell of a drug, and being able to mow down a 2/2/x, 200K HP Cap Node as an Arts Looper where the only pre-Wave 3 enemies are Assassins and Zerks that have reduced NP Generation when hit compared to other classes makes her even better.
Last thing: None of this would be an issue if Arc's S2 was 6CD instead of 7. Because then she could pop all her Skills on T1, and loop them on T3 for another 100 Charge and the extra 20% NP Damage that comes with it while ALSO having complete Freedom in what Mystic Code you want to use, since you don't need Plug for Oberon (unless low damage comes up) nor do you need Atlas for CDR. I can only assume the High CD is to be in line with Rapid Words of Divine, but that Skill at Rank B hits 100 at Level 8, and Rank A at Level 4. Breath of the Planet is more comparable to Melusine's Ray Horizon, which cooldowns in 5 Turns while charging 100 meter or granting 30% NP Damage based on her form. And while she's far from being out, Summer Melusine's Blue Horizon gets both the Charge (reduced to 80 MAX) and the NP Damage on a 6 Turn Cooldown, and would've made her busted if she was still a Buster user since she could loop that. So there's no good reason Arc's Charge isn't a 6T, and it not being one heavily neuters her as a farmer based on damage numbers.
Actual Last Thing: I did do some testing with Super Black Grail in KK-Atlas. Arc still needs to be NP3 and Level 100 minimum to kill the Sphinxes. To do what Melusine and S. Ibuki can do for way less, be it lower NP levels, lower Level, weaker CEs or none at all, or some combination of the 3 just because they use KKO.
Yup. For Damage reasons, Arc should not be number 1. Might not even beat Koyan and Skadi. IF her name wasn't Arcueid, the one unit people begged for years to receive a collab, FGO x Tsukihime. And it finally happened, her kit could be better, specially her cooldown. But it is not just about the damage, it's the character.
Also, i read tou tested double Oberon. The comp i had in mind, without plug, would be Arc and 2 Oberon. With append 2 at lv1.
Using both Oberons S1 at turn 1, together with one of their S2 at Oberon. He clears wave 1.
Wave 2.
She uses her Np with 1 Oberon S2.
Wave 3.
She uses her 3 skills, and both Oberons buster buffs + the dmg mystic code.
I dunno if this is the best comp for her. Like i said, it wasn't about the damage. It was about the character.
But great research nonetheless, it will help people when building their comps with arcueid.
Kukulkan is now forever rayqaza for me
Green Flying Dragon, destroys space invader, gargantuan damage... yeah, all check.
@@KosheiDeathless Who do you think represents Kyogre and Groudon best?
@keroro407 We need someone that can make waves after waves of water damage. I would say either Summer Ibuki (as she is part animal) or Summer Jeanne (as she even rides a whale). As for Groudon, could be Barghest, Big, set the sun up, gets lots of buffs. What about you ?
@@KosheiDeathless Gawain can be solgeleo
@@Aesc_the_voyager Anastasia can be glaceon or frosslass xD
Rayquazaaaa !!!! Loved that !!!!!
Gotta prepare that Master Ball
Honestly I'd say the only servant I really want to get out of this year is Melt during her re-run in February. Getting her up to NP3 or so would be nice. Great girl that still does good work.
Might throw some quartz at Proto Merlin for the extra arts support. But we'll see. 2025 looks absolutely nuts. I'll need a year's worth of quartz for characters like Draco, Tiamat, Summer Melusine, etc.
Good luck for Melt, i also like her as a whole. As for the quartz, i will soon upload a vid about how much quartz can we save until summer, then maybe until next year as well.
Great info my friend but the music was a bit loud
Thanks for the insight. Every music or just a few ?
As usual, the best video about next chars...
Kyaaa S2
Lady Avalon is best for waifu reasons.
NP 5 is a need. It doesn’t matter how many banners/how long it takes.
I love her a lot. I got soooo happy when they announced her for summer 7.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What is that Fate: Grand battle 1 rearrangement backing the hms and no1? It's amazing, I need to know
Oh. It's the Aradia Battle, from Fate Empire of Dirt
Lady Avalon and Summer Skadi are my #1 and #2 picks for the year. Summer Ibuki will get a pass... my NP5 120 Spishtar will work just fine thanks :)
Arcueid is pretty awesome but I (and a whole lot of others) would put her behind Summer Ibuki as #1 to pickup this year, even though I'm not rolling for either.
You should do the best 4 stars. After all I don't think I have enough for 5 servants.
Best 4stars of the year ? Hmm i might do it then. Thank you for the insight.
Going to summon for Fox girl of light to get NP 2 tho I will save to get Castor Castoria but now I want that Moon Cancer servent so I will save after Fox girl
Fox Girl is one of the best girls
@@KosheiDeathless💯 percent agree ❤
I want to summon all of them but I'm mainly saving for Arc and Draco next year
I save for oberon i need him for my melusine , koyan is the last because i have skady with 50% np charge , with oberon i can finally 3 turn loop
Good luck, may oberon bless you
I'm glad I got Morgan np2 already. Now i can splurge on Ibuki.
Go for it, she is amazing.
Already have np3 melu so saving up for np5 hopefully then castoria and miss crane will be my main target
Castoria is a must ! Good luck.
wowowww
Summer Ibuki, I think. Might even swing Np 2. I will have enough to pity, should it come to that. And, if I get that early enough, I can take a swing at Lady Avalon. After that, not touching gacha till Draco comes out.
Watch my next video either tomorrow or the day after. I will show you how much can you save until Ibuki. I think you're ok XD
I will be rolling for koyan of light, Arcueid and Castoria this year.
I am working on a video about how many quartz until "X servant". Well, let me give you a freebie. It's "around" 436sqs and 96tickets until castoria.
I’ve already got Koyanskaya of dark. Next up is Charlemagne, Arcueid, and the summer ssrs.
Good luck. 5 targets up there.
Yess for Rayquaza 😁🤣
After I got summer Skadi, my next target is Kukulkan. I hope to get her np3+
Good luck in your Rayquaza rolls
Still Saving for F2P NP5 Arcueid.
(Edit)
I'm gonna miss a lot brilliant servants but I'm willing to go all out for the OG! Please wish me luck there's still chance I only get pity.
I'm editing right now the "how many quartz can you save until arcueid" video. It will be a long one, hopefully you will watch it. But let me give you a free spoiler. We will get Over 700 sqs and 150 tickets. Didn't accounted the strengthening quests or new interludes (as it changes from people to people).
@@KosheiDeathless thank you for the early info! I'll definitely check out that video for your more detailed explanation. Arcueid is awesome and I'm glad she got so much love in her fgo adaptation!
Niceeeee
Thank you !
I think the number 1 is summer ibuki.. archetpe earth is behind summer servant, why? Because the Long CD, so don't applicable to double koyanskaya and oberon, and then the bad class, if at least Avenger or berserker.
I agree about that. The only thing that kept me from doing so was that Arc can 3t farm with almost no investment. While Ibuki you always need castoria. Or the others need koyanskaya. For a beginner, Arc is kinda like Melusine, she just rolls on her own.
Can we stop pretending Moon Cancer is a bad class? It's not, especially in the context of Omnifarming where Class Advantage doesn't matter. Saber, Lancer, Archer, and Rider get walled by a single, common Class. Assassin and Caster have the same issue plus they have low damage modifiers that make them hit weaker than an equivalent Servant of a different Class. And Foreigner has unnecessary Advantage over Zerks, which EVERYTHING has Advantage over. And then you have Alter Ego and Pretender, who get walled by a whole 3 classes. Moon Cancer is an average Class, not having any good or bad matchups that matter. The only better Classes are Foreigner (marginally), Rulers and Avengers, and of course, Zerks. It's EASILY better than Alter Ego and Pretender, and as far as Omnifarming goes, doesn't get walled like the main 6.
@@KosheiDeathless tbf, earth need koyanskaya, just like s.ibuki need castoria..so, ITS same.. also, to omny farming, you need high np..so ITS same, high Investment,must at least np3 to be omnifarm..also, i am have sq at koyanskaya light ( with ticket) maybe equal around 400 sq, must i try summon koyanskaya light or waiting at December?
@@uzumakiyuuki3454 400 is a nice number. I believe you can get her. If not you try in december with way more
@@uzumakiyuuki3454
Statistically speaking, 300 is the amount to "guarantee" an SSR. By which I mean if the rate is 1%, then 100 Pulls SHOULD statistically net you one. Emphasis on SHOULD, because that's not guaranteed to happen, and likely won't happen. Just know that if you did 100 Pulls and didn't at least get an SSR, the game is trolling you.
So the reason why I play JP again was because of Arcuied.
But Bazett, Charlie, Kriemhild, Arcuied, Proto Merlin, Summer Skadi, Quick Berserker (Forgot her name), and Huyan Zhou are my targets for the year. I love Ibuki, but I'm not going to roll for her Berserker because I really don't need her personally.
Skadi is my personal roll this year. It's the year of the quick for me.
I'll go all out on all 4 of them this summer, then it's saving until Rayquaza, Tiamat and Draco.
@@KosheiDeathless Kuku is a NP5 target for me, personally, but I am also rolling for Tiamat and Draco especially because I don't have a Nero at all, and DMC references lol.
Durga/Kali for so many personal reasons, Tonelico, Baobhan Sith, and Kenshin.
Just got koyan dark and taira
Still have 500sq left
My main targets this year are Arjuna alter (yes still him), ibuki and skadi summer, muramasa and if possible bazzet as well
Hope i could atleast get 3 out of those mentioned
Well can't exhaust the resources too much either cause then I'll have little to no backup for kukul
Good luck on those
As a ftp, I'm getting screwed on my koyan dark summons, luckily I still have a lot of ways to get more sq so I'm hoping I get lucky
Good luck. I also need to farm bond in order to stock sqs for summer.
good thing i dont play meta over waifu so this year most of them dont tempt me. But 2025 tho....hooo...wait where is that outro melusine sauce?
Artist: Drill_bulbul
You can find it easily in danbooru.
And yes, this year is not that meta relevant also... besides Skadi, Ibuki and Arc. Now, 2025 is a whole new story.
Hello im a new player who just started this year! Im trying to build up my team and wondering which one of thse units will benefit my acc the most? I currently have dark koyan, melusine and zhugeliang . 4star is saber lily. I love pulling ffor meta so who do you think will be best?
Melusine is already the top of the top of the meta. You can watch my videos about how to use her and my boss fight videos. As for what else can you pull. I would say Castoria, Light Koyan and Oberon. Then you're set up for life and can pull whichever units you preffer. Although i would recomend Summer Ibuki as well.
Koyan Dark came for me ❤
NICE
good list besides getting 1 and 2 messed up but I shall forgive this
I rather have Ibuki then Arcueid, don't get me wrong. And Merlin was my favorite. But those Passives from Arcueid are criminal.
Me and SQ savings: MUST NP5 ARCUEID
Also me: Np1 Proto Merlin, np1 Summer skadi, np2 ibuki zerker
AHHHHHHĤ
Yeah, i feel you. This year has a lot of temptations during summer.
The summer is a treat for me and not because of the 5* I'm more hyper for the 4* there like erice avenger , Gareth is best girl so a must and the one that is I must Wu zetian caster
Wu Zetian was truly well designed
@@KosheiDeathless couldn't ask for more if I get her she's getting grail just like her assassin form
Well so far I really want:
Charlemagne, proto merlin and ruler summer skiadi

Good luck, specially for merlin, she might not be Castoria, but i think she is quite the treat.
@@KosheiDeathless indeed, I am just hoping by getting both her and ruler skiadi I can improve my quick and arts ability since I already got cashtoria and skiadi

Nice to see someone put arcueid at first place, RESPECT 😭🤝
Not my favorite, but we give credit where credit is due, and she is THAT good.
Until chole summer is released she is the best buster unit that can loop with blackgrail, even better the melu. And melu already the top tier buster unit.
@@user-ft1ru8jv1zObjectively not true, even with a black grail she can’t even out damage most buster servants who need a 50% charge ce let alone melu or Tiamat with black grail who absolutely blow her out of the water.
@@6ToesHeACreatureArc’s 100% self charge and 30% charge for allies is very valuable as a multicore farmer while Melusine is a pure single core farmer in most cases. You don’t expect to use Arc’s NP to clear the final wave unless w3 has chaotic bosses.
@@6ToesHeACreature Yeah i know she doesn't work with Koyanskasa of Light and Oberon combo due to her long cooldown. So her dmg output couldn't as high as Melu in last turn. But using her with the CD decrease Mystic Code and Koyan is still to good to go. 30% Card dmg Up (Or 90% Cause i pretty sure it doesn't stack able put this if i am mistake), 60% attack up, 40% Np up, 20% defend down and 60 to 80% NP up from Blackgrail dmg (Maybe 100% dmg up in some event). Put it all we have 210%~230% total dmg up on her own and with Chaotic enemy she will get x1,5 dmg. So her dmg out put with buff combine with koyan is about 310%~330% and with chaotic enemy it even higher (Can't work with Oberon in Farming so we won't call him out). Not only that she also charge 100% Np to Koyan (With 0 Ce or Passive skill) and that is alot of dmg.
While Melu is 40% x2 = 80% attack up, 60% buster up and 30% Np up = 170% Total Dmg Up (Yeah she is insane i know). With black grail it could be 230%~250% Total dmg up for NP. And then we have oberon to buff her with (30%+30%+80%)x2 = 280%Np dmg up and 50% Buster up, and she somehow still have higher attack stat lol. The only problem with melu is having Oberon or not. Cause with out him she kinda mid,
Conclusion Oberon is Op at fux.
Already got Darkness!🎉
Me as well. But the world must know what the Fox says.
Yeah I pretty much use new years rolls as a prediction for how the year will go. Last year...holy crap... to be clear I got EVERY Avalon le fae unit, SABER, and an anniversary paid roll I was aiming for. And somehow also managed to get a late Summer Kiara.
2021...New Years was full of salt. And so was the year.
2024...had to grind quartz collecting for 2 more 10 rolls but got Darkness. So that just means "You will have a good year so long as you put in a decent effort. PS, dont make any investments." Paid Roll was salty.
@@CircuitReborn lmao. I wanted nothing during this paid banner. I got everything i wanted last year. 2 morgan, 2 mel, koyan, oberon, 2 koyan dark (technically this year? But fate says i got her at Dec 31) so i say that yes, last year was awesome. This year i just want to farm and get my water snake and succubus onee-chan on summer.
I don't need another arts looper.

Okay, maybe one.
You will need atleast the "Newest arts Looper from every summer" XD

- Ibuki : no need already have waifu morgan
- arcueil : no need already have waifu kiara

And I must prepare for the tesla cup in march 2024.... my options are limited...
My quartz saves are for :
- bazett (waifu and alter ego ST main)
- Castoria (for evident reasons but she is AFTER tesla cup...)
- Summer Skadi (I did the choice to Not roll original skadi in christmas to not risk a double roll for new year lucky bag)
- Jalter for np3 lvl 110 (my main)
In 2 years my mains :
-Saber : musashi/ibuki lvl100
-Archer : ishtar lvl 100 (no idea for ST i can decide for Orion or Artoria)
-Lancer : Scatash/Melusine lvl100
-Caster : no main dps but Merlin support (I want Xuang and Aesc)
-Rider : Quetz lvl 100 (maybe Drake fir AOE)
-Assassin : Kama lvl 100 and Koyan Light (dps and support)
- Berserker : Morgan lvl 100 and waifu Nightingale.
- Avengers : nobu 100 / Jalter 108
- Ruler : Himiko (lucky bag with merlin this year). I want Skadi for support and AOE dps.
- Moon : Kiara
- Alter ego : I want Bazett and Tiamat
- Foreigner : I want Kukul. No idea for ST.
- Pretender : I have Oberon
To resume : my rolls are all calculated.
(I didn't count spooks who are not my mains like Vlad... Mordred... Jack)
Morgan's not Meta outside of the CQ cheese she doesn't with Castoria and Merlin, but if you have the other two (which you probably do since they're older), you can just borrow Morgan off Support. Plus Himiko fills a similar role in that comp. Morgan's not in the same league as those other 4. No one can do KoyanLight's, Oberon's, and Castoria's jobs, and the ones that can match Melusine are Arts Servants, or aren't out yet (and some still aren't as good as Melu). There's replacements for Morgan in farming both in and out of Card Type.
Morgan's damage and np batteries are still very good imo. Yes, there are arts berserkers. But morgan can enjoy using black grail, 2 koyans and oberon while hitting 3 waves. But i get your point nonetheless.
@@KosheiDeathless
How does Morgan Black Grail Loop? She shouldn't be able to according to the math (She gives herself 100 from her loopable Skills, the Koyans give another 100, and Oberon only gives 70, totalling to 270, 290 if you MAX A2 her, which I think messes with her Turn 2 meter gain).
@@espurrseyes42 i made a video about this, she needs habetrot or any other unit that can die turn 1 with a regular battle of camlam CE. That's enough to enable the 300% charge

Also does this setup work with Arcueid? Because I know she has an issue where she needs different setups that lead to less damage in order to BG loop due to her S2 being 7 Turns instead of 6.

Thanks for the insight. I will search a lot more about her when we get closer to the banners. Unfortunately, there is so few material about her.
Sorry but Nah ibuki is number 1 and it’s not even close
Also my fav, but i could not pass on those passives. 30% is just too much
Kriemhild is easily top 3. You opened with Koyan Dark at number 5 so it is a given that this list would be a disaster.
Umm, i don't believe koyan is stronger then ibuki as an aoe dps, nor she can fulfill the same role as well as merlin and skadi. As for Kriemhild, she loves Siegfried, so i can't make a spot for her.
KoYami is good for Multicore due to her 30% Charge being partywide.
