    I often get questions from new players on where to focus their efforts and how the AP system works! There's a couple minute details that often aren't told to you and so I tried to cover the ones I thought people needed to know. If you have other tips and tricks for new players regarding their Action Points (AP), definitely leave them in the comments below! As always thanks for watching and let me know if you have any questions! If you liked the video, consider subscribing for more daily FGO videos!

      A video on the best, and second to best in some cases, quests to farm mats might be a good complement to this one. The rate of accumulation is painfully slow but is the difference between having or not servants with highly leveled skills. As for why list second best places to farm; some nodes are far into lostbelts and new accounts might not have access for months; while others have a more desirable mat drop outside the primary mat.

      @@thepureheartofdark The "best" aka most AP efficient place to farm is sometimes very complex and individual. There are spreadsheets out there to tell you the places with the best AP/drop ratio. It's not guaranteed those are the most AP efficient for you though. You might need other mats too and there might be a node where both materials drop, making that node more AP efficient.
      Easiest example I can think of is when you need Proofs, you might see that "Okeanos - Pirate Ship" is best AP/drop. Yet "E Pluribus Unum - Charlotte" on place 18 on that list also drops Void Dust at a great rate, making it more AP efficient to farm both mats there as long as you need both.
      Those interactions are sometimes so individual though that you basically need an external tool like the Chaldea app to figure it out for you.
      Would be great if Khad could shine a light on this in a follow-up video though, since a lot of people probably only look at best AP/drop to decide their farming location.

    Talking about AP efficiency, I wish that drops were garanteed. That way I don't feel like I am wasting a whole day for nothing.
    Also, I wish they gave saplings as event rewards / lotto box rewards / in event shops and that we could set them to be used automatically so we could have peace of mind that our AP will saved in case something happens IRL.

      Hear hear. With how grindy this game is, the AP costs are really egregious, combined with drops not being a guarantee. I've burned through so many apples trying to grind out Ascension materials just barely get enough materials that I need to power up a particular Servant.

    I always say be efficient with your ap so when you can't be efficient it won't be a big deal.
    This last November my phone broke right as Imaginary Scramble came out and because of phone company shenanigans it took like a week for me to get a new phone. I had to spend apples to catch up and complete the event because I was behind but it was no big deal because I have such a huge stockpile for that very reason.

    As a player in his lv 140's, I play in the morning and use up my AP and then at night about twelve or so hours later, however I find that if I have 120 or more AP everything still tends to work out. This schedule is useful because when FGO is on "off time" if I am grinding a material I can usually say that it will take x number of days to grind out the required materials so it doesn't seem so impossible to do.

    13:08 Sometimes, some changes in the naming go for the better in the NA an example would be from the trait going fron "Large" to "Giant" wich makes more sense in most scenarios, so I really hope they change the name of them to blue apples...

    I spend AP 3 times a day. Before bed, in the morning and two~three quests in the afternoon. I have all of my main roster at 9/9/8 or above now with all the mats accumulated during dead weeks. The drop rate spreadsheet and Gamepress let me know which quests are worth farming for the needed mats.

    All I need to know: I have more apples than I can even spend, so use them freely. I’m using them quite liberally and they still really build up. They’re very generous with apple distribution for the most part. Though for new players it might be a good idea to not rely on apples as much as possible.

    Playing only in the NA, spending AP on morning and evening, farming bond points to get SQ out of servants. I need all SQ I can get for LB6 Banners and 6th Anniversary. Sun King's Temple is really the best place to farm Bond points, it even gives you 2 5* Caster Embers for every run!

    gotta say, for a longtime player, it is actually hard to run out of apples. of course you can, but i use the ocasional bronze/silver apple almost every day, only use golden for lottos or when finishing the farm of an event (or if I feel like playing a bit more than normal) and i'm currently at 808gold, 517silver and 1079 bronze. I think blue apples are overkill xD

    • @espurrseyes42
      @espurrseyes42 Рік тому +2

      If you're able, farm the new High Level EXP Nodes because they drop 5 Star EXP. Or the High Level QP farm. Or if you really don't need either of those, Great Temple in Camelot has the highest raw Bond drop, only costing 1 more AP that what I've seen others consider the best Bond grinding spot. That Node also updated when 5 Star EXP was added to now have the Sphinxes drop 5 Star EXP instead of 4 Star. It's just a good place to grind between the Bond, EXP, and the mats you can get from it.

For example, is "Take Romance" worth it? Or should NA players wait? Are the mix ones better than dedicated 10% ones? Thanks.
