While I like his kit overall, I really wish that Richard had at least a Dodge for defense. One of his main things as a Servant is that he's absurdly fast and evasive, so it would've fit perfectly in terms of Gameplay.
@@dindapriska its what I thought he would get lol. make it stupid low cd like zerk sushis evade, let it grant 1 evade +1 per turn while stacking, and screw it throw in the other effects too cause why not its 2025 bay bay
Imagine if they put a special condition that take a stargen buff for an evade for each hit in his 3rd skill. His overkill stargen won't be a waste and he will be one of the must durable servant in the game.
Best part, it's a FGO only Ascension. An all-new original form. Dude probably spent the night playing Bloody Roar and altered his Saint Graph to be a amped version of Gado.
BTW Richard’s bond 5 Biography pretty much confirms a F/SF collab as he has a bond 5 unlock that says “will be unlocked after completion of a certain quest”
@ idk, because OC4 is Ruler and F/SF has a lot of fan favorite characters, plus looking 2024 new year the servant was a collab servant and we got a full collab as the first event of the year.
@ I don’t doubt a Strange Fake collab will happen this year though. It definitely will. With the anime airing and the final volume releasing, and can see a collab on the horizon probably around April or after whenever OC4 happens
@@vel0xraperio but if that's the case then i think Mehmed ii would be the first one to come out because we do have his depiction in fate already (Vlad's and Constantine's story + the Himuro's appearance)
He’s basically the modern rendition of the classic Buster crit beatstick. Granted, having all 3 buff types does mean his np hits harder than you’d expect despite the low magnitudes but you can feel the lack of an anti trait. Not a bad unit at all, just doesn’t have anything to distinguish himself from the sea of buster AOE sabers (third ascension still looks dope as fuck though)
The overindulgence of star gen up on his kit seems to hurt him elsewhere. Star gen was never an issue and you don't need that much, not with things like Append 1 or class score or just modern supports. He just kinda ends up being a mid tier saber. He has crit ramp up but on buster, the easiest to get massive amounts of crit on... I don't think he's bad, but he's not a character that will drive people to him because of his power, a very character driven pull.
you got a new servent too i lucked out with 5 star nitro honestly the second one out of a ten pack your not only one with a new hero from new years!!! :)
I love him, the only thing I don't love is having to wait till he gets released on NA. Richard is maximum no chill all the time and i couldn't be happier.
Anyone here has an idea why we didn't get updates on any fate novels for years other than the last Strange Fake volume, which was also last year I think?
El-Melloi Case Files is also very consistently getting 2 updates per year. I think it's because the authors for Strange Fake and El-Melloi don't write FGO. The authors for Requiem and Lost Einherjar also work on FGO, and GO's need to always release something new means they're too busy with that to work on novels. That's my guess anyway. It's the same reason Tsukihime is taking forever.
@CallMeNoa I really agree with your point, but I'll use it against you too. Other side of red garden is taking a long time because Nasu has a major role in the ordeal call arc as much as LB 6 and 7. Also, he always does the summer events, and it was both summer event and ordeal call 3 this year. The others, like meteo who writes requiem, doesn't and didn't have much FGO content to work on in the last year and a half, or more.
It’s really interesting to me that the animations they used are pretty much things that Richard does not do in FSF Like, two of the main powers I associate him with are only kind of represented. Also I fully expected him to be a Quick AOE servant with a defensive and crit kit, but that didn’t happen, so…
I've noticed many new SSRs have damage buffs totaling 50-70% for 3 turns (not including any crit damage). For Richard: Skill 1: 20% attack up Skill 2: 20% rainbow effectiveness and 30% np damage Makes me feel bad for all the 1 turn Mana Burst servants. They usually have 30-50% buff for 1 turn only.
Artoria has 98% for a single turn. 50% Buster up(1 turn) 30% NP damage(1 turn) 18% ATK up(3 turns) With double casting its 116% since her atk up is 3 turns and can actcually be double casted. Its still lower than Richard double casting by quite a bit since he has 140% with double casting, but Artoria has a upgraded NP so she probably still does competitive damage. By double casting i mean double koyan light cooldown reduction btw. With Artoria you can save the dragon core for W2 and W3 and do low damage but competitive damage on W2 and W3. Depending on the node you can use the dragon core at W1 and W3 even if its a 1/3/x node for example, she is quite flexiable.
if saladin makes it in, his kit has to compliment rick in some way, maybe both are buster/quick, but saladin has a quick np? idk lookin forward to more strange fake servants. archer/avenger herc babyyyyyyyyy!!
From what I’ve seen, while he’s focused on buster crits, he tries to in general buff and amplify his entire card deck to do what they do but even better. He’s a very card centric servant, which honestly, I find quite fun.
Personally I wish he was ST Buster with a 50% charge to separate from the sea of AoE Busters. Or that he had some sort of anti-trait or some interesting gimmick. Might get a buff along the way giving that though.
Wait 100.000? Wow I didn’t expect Myst to reach 100.000 before 2025 especially since it’s 31.12.2024😅 Edit:I didn’t see the Video from 3 hours ago my bad.
From what Ive seen he is just a very nice servant with good internals, Solid skill set and NP. While nothing particularly new his skill set is very nice (if a bit lacking in survivability) and overall just a very nice saber once again hes not really revolutionizing the buster saber meta (Ibuki is still 1st place in my opinion) but a very nice addition.
I guess it makes sense he’d be a Buster beat stick, but they made him somewhat more interesting. Feels like a modern Arthur. At least he has Yui synergy, lol
Question ya'll, how do you put only one servant againts the battlefield? Its not making mw battle unless i fill the frontlines. I only want one Servant on the frontline. Oh and uhh im suing FGO JP server.
@@samuelgaming2124 use a low level servants with a self taunt or taunt ce on them so the mobs can take them out. You'll probably find a friend leo or George that's low level
Use two Habetrots, one from support and one from your own inventory, as her S3 sacrifices her so after turn 1 you can have only 1 Servant left. It's the easiest way.
i hope this all means a sf evenr soon with a herc alt that can actually SPEAK after 10 years of Madness Enhancement meaning nothing because every other zerk can speak its a lil annoying him (and lu bu) get shafted so hard
Most interesting part is the cooldown reduction could maybe be relevant in some multicore setup perhaps. It looks like burn is after damage on NP too, why did they have to make honey lake worse on him for no good reason.
@ idk, I don’t see how his kit here is far inferior. He generates a ton of stars and Crit damage, so if anything, if not hitting as high, he’s at least more consistent than Ibuki since he can stack it.
@@Kingtanuki-y8x He's the most disappointing to most people cause it's his Alter, which is lame. I'd still roll for him if implemented correctly, though.
