Melusine has played out really well over the years. She's one of those investments that you're sure will have staying power, as only recently have we had new unit releases that rival her damage capacity or exceed it. Still with regards to the lancers especially she manages to reign supreme. A lot of her kit is similar to lancelot saber's in some way, but in most cases she has stronger skills by comparison. Be very careful with what ascension form you use on her! It actually impacts gameplay! Thank you all for watching as always! Don't forget to check our discord! Will you be rolling melusine here and if so how many copies? 🤔
NP5. I have waited for her arrival on NA for too long. Ofc hoping for the same luck I got on JP might not be realistic (NP2 120 sq 1st banner, NP3 60 sq 2nd banner and NP5 150 sq 3rd banner). I'm just absolutely crazy for my girl now, I'll get my girl to NP5, other units be damned (ofc I would still like to at least get the buster setup so my girl can shine the brightest, but from my experience on JP, absolutely not necessary)
I love how her artist CHOCO basically just brought a redesign of his original character "KOS-MOS" from Xenosaga into FGO and they made her just as ridiculously powerful as the original. Gonna be rolling for NP1 and do the rest later this year, looking forward to all the Percivals ruining my day (even if he himself is great)
Not sure I agree with that, but there are a couple similarities. Now, Summer Melusine with miniguns, *that's* going to be the Kos-Mos redesign. Regular Melusine is clearly interested in getting to switch to the Berserker Lancelot.
Wait, the artist was the guy who designed KOS-MOS? Damn, i didn't know that, now i gotta roll for her. I may have 430 sq (+200 in fragments), but I can hope for her and Oberon. I dunno, I feel deluded with that though.
Only planning to roll for NP1 on her initial banner next week. Have to maintain enough to pity for Koyan and Oberon if necessary and can roll for more copies after that on her rerun banner, same for Morgan.
Waifu over meta... That's why even though Melusine is broken, I'll go for Oberon 😂 I remember when I first saw him (1st ascension) and heard people calling him a meme I just thought yeah I'm not gonna summon for a meme character... After a while I took a closer look at him and something seemed weird... His mouth ? Eyes ? His face as a whole... I realised it was an Umino Chika design... That's when I decided that nothing would stop me from getting that man. And everything I read about his character only made me like him more. Edit: I used 4 tickets and got Melusine.
It's funny because I had a few people angry about me for talking about his kit pre-release. I didn't mention anything about story, but just wanted to warn people of how he would impact the game.
Wait! That makes so much sense! I wondered why I lieked his design so much and why was he so familiar! Of course he is drawn by March comes like a Lion magaka!
I’ve budgeted 660 SQ for her initial banner. If Koyan and Oberon are kind to me, I’ll use my remainder on her second banner this year. Good luck to everyone rolling!
Great video. I'd love to add that her 2nd append is amazing when it comes to Lottos or Events. A lot of Lottos and Events give you a 50% CE. With a 50% CE you can start her off in 3rd form in the buster system and cash in on another 30% np damage which then becomes 60% np damage on wave 3. Melusine is easily still the best Lancer in the game 2 years after her release and has forever changed the game. Her NP damage dwarfs all of the other lancers even in their niches. At high investment, you can even clear 90++ nodes even with her counter class (saber) in them. She's as close to a "must roll" as a dps can get if you want to turn your brain off and just press buster np.
Reading your comment I was in dilemma either to Lv120 or app battery her since my NP3 need bond lv 14 to get both, which is way too long. But then I realize, her dmg is still dropping w/ 50 battery CE compare to her synergy w/ BG. In that case, I would just my Godjuna or Gil instead. I've seen some future lotto has servant mob even in w2 & Godjuna could force his anti trait instead. I think her biggest value in the competition is still the synergy w/ BG & other utilities she has. Therefore I think I'll just LV120 instead. Maybe if I was spook in GSSR, I could go to same route as my NP4 Lilynci, to get both max app grail & app battery.
I can make an argument for the support units or possibly even spash ishtar or arjuna alter. But yes she certainly made waves with oberon completing her ability to 3 turn as an AOE buster unit.
@@Khadroth I agree that the supports are very strong but they are more enablers so i give them a pass. But i feel like starting with Spishtar they started pushing the envelope and Melusine just accelerated the problem
Lil Dragon over here is STILL the only servant in the game even on JP that has a "Double" NP type................and can switch to one of them during battle etc... Still love her, treasure her 🥰 Only reason I even want one copy of her is because of CHOCO, her artist, and well......KOSMOS resemblance XD....
@@PeterVan-wu5ri True in a sense but in Jekyll's/Hide's case he just changes classes from Assassin to Berserker. Hard to say that its the same as Melusine. But I suppose the "premise" is kind of the same?
Agreed, the lore argument is stupid. There are many servants that should be waaay stronger than they currently are based on lore. That being said I'm really looking forward to her, not sure how many copies I'm gonna roll tho since I have a fully maxed spishtar for farming already... so probably not higher than np2 I guess, but if the rolls go bad I'll settle for np1 cos koyan and oberon are also right around the corner
I find Melu to be a very intereting servant with a cute and appealing design; however, I want to caution people who may be wanting to summon for meta purposes: there are a plethora of f2p and/or easily accessible farming capable servants with high damage. Examples include (and are not exclusive to): Cu Caster, Habetrot, Chen Gong, Taisui, Iyo, Percival, Fionn, Valks (especially summer), among other options. Due to the plethora of farming options, I hope nobody feels as though they HAVE to summon for Melu - summon if you want, but don't force yourself.
Okay, if Melusine doesn´t need Mana Loading and she doesn´t really need Apendix Skill 3, I can assume, that even Appendix Skill 1 isn´t needed, because she would nuke everything with her NP already and does this mean, she would be a Top candidate for the "lvl 120 project", because we can spare the coins?
Keep in mind that even if you wanted to lvl her to 120, you would be required to summon NP2+ because the devs specifically designed the coin system in a p2w fashion.
Shes been a target of mine even before we saw her kit, From design alone I knew it meant I would be rolling for her, her kit being as strong as it is, is of course a bonus but thats never been overly important when rolling for waifu reasons. Would like to get her to np3 for a2 and 120 but given Koyan and Oberon right after, I think np1 here and then going for another 2 copies at the end of the year is a wiser play, even if its going to be tempting.
yep same story for me, literally love at first sight waifu edition. Like she was the one who forced me to actually go through with my plans to set up a jp applestore to download JP ver. Coupled with the fact that I was blessed with an NP5 Meluko (as a F2P no less), I'm now just head over heels for her. NP5 at least for me.
As soon as Arjuna Alter came out we all should have known things like Melusine would also be coming down the line. Personally I’m fine with it. People thought Space Ishtar and Arjuna Alter would be the be all end all and they aren’t. I remember hearing people say Tiamat can out punch Melusine. Which is weird.
Yep, the issue is more that they have to keep raising that bar so fast. Like I was talking about with the kit here, she's great, but man there were something that they could have halved and she still would have been insanely strong.
But Tiamat does can outdamage Melusine? Aside from fighting Knights class and Pretender where Alter Ego deals half damage, Tiamat outdamages Melusine on Neutral and vastly outdamages her with class advantage against Cavalries, Zerk and Foreigners
@@6ToesHeACreature The thing is, the two skills she does have in that form are both really good. 40% attack up, 500 damage cut, +2000 max HP, 30% NP, star absorb, stars per turn, and star bomb. The only things she's missing in that form are utility, survivability, and crit damage up.
I think it is also worth noting that in events with 50% CEs, you can use her as a typical 30% charger in the double Koyanskaya and Oberon setup, and start her off in her third ascension to get some more damage (get to benefit from using her third skill twice for more NP dmg) than starting her off in 1st/2nd ascension, since you'd have to give up Black Grail.
with that set up, doesnt it gave the same result or even worst than starting with 1st/2nd asc + black grail? you basically have the same buff on turn 3 but without black grail and lower output with oberon 3rd skill?
The plan: hope to help that Oberon and koyan banners overlap so I can roll both, and then save up to roll the highest melu copy I can manage at the end of year. If they don't overlap, I might have to stick to np1 and get koyan and hard save for Arcuid or something. Or maybe just admit that I run an arts account lmao
I plan to roll 900 SQ for Melu. At worst i'll get NP1. Ideally i'll score and get 6 copies to max her out. After the hell that is coming up with Vitch and Oberon, I plan to save all my SQ until her next banner in december to get whatever other NP levels I need to make Melu into a demon. Oh, and I also have 26 of each type of gold fou stockpiled.
@@NevisYsbryd 26 is all i've been able to save after 2k fouing my Summer Musashi. But since you ask... you need 50 of each gold fou to bring a character up to 2k/2k. So if you have over 100, you can do at least two servants. Got anyone in mind? :o
@@CrazyYurie A few, though undecided. I have not used any yet, hence my stockpile. I am running out of inventory room >x< Definite candidates include Jalter, Van Gogh, Tiamat when she comes on NA, and Dantes and Arthur if they ever get brought up to par. Potential/undecided candidates include Morgan, Melusine (I suspect I will be taken with both, yet, as I have avoided a lot of the spoiler material, I do not know enough about either as characters to say for certain), and Kama.
@@NevisYsbryd I certainly understand the dilemma. I actually could have sunk my own gold fous into another servant. I have Jalter too who is currently on her way to lvl 120 (need more bond/coins), Spishtar, and many other servants of high quality in my Chaldea like Morgan, Odysseus, Kama, Seiba, Gilgamesh, etc etc. Ultimately I've chosen to go with Melusine because I plan to use her far more extensively than any of the other candidates (with the possible exception of Spishtar and Morgan). In other words, I am prioritizing gameplay over love for the characters. On a related note, if you have not been spoiled on LB6, I won't spoil you. All I will say is that Melusine and *especially* Morgan get much more character development in the parts yet to be released on NA.
My hope remains to get as many NP levels as luck will allow me. Will throw a ton of quartz at her banner, roll on GSSRs, and keep her December banner in mind. The most quartz I've set aside for any servant. But it will all come down to luck. The more the better since that will just let her be a nearly unstoppable force. May not be about gameplay, but that design is fantastic. Was interested enough to get those CHOCO art books and there are fantastic details in there. It doesn't hurt that she's still got a really interesting gameplay design. The double NP is fun to have and will be interesting to play around. Great design, personality, and will probably be my main farming attacker for a long time.
I just pulled Morgan and Castoria (because i started after her banner) so my SQ funds are in shambles idk if i'll even manage to get Koyan or Oberon, so melusine gonna have to be a skip this time ...
@@SmartyPantsDash I'm probably gonna try for Skadi in lucky bag, since most of my DPS are quick, or Koyan if she's in lucky bag and I don't drop her but thanks for the heads up 👍
@@Pomho1812 glad to help. Skadi is a solid choice and I'm still doubting to go for her as well. Koyan is on rate up on the same time, so unfortunately she's not included in the lucky bag :(
@@SmartyPantsDash Welp guess lucky bag is gonna be Skadi, hopefully everyone get the chars they want whether it be in lucky bag or banners. Best of luck to you o7
As a Lancer collector I would just like to get the one for now, but go for NP2 later on, but I don't want her to be the end-all-be-all for my account. That's reserved for my Kamas.
Sadge i already have units that fill her role in my account, Spishtar for Omni farming and Roma/Enkidu for Archer cleanups. still going strong for both Oberon/Koyan to enable my other Buster units, so i cant get sidetracked. Goodluck to anyone pulling for her doe, shes CRACKED.
Melusine's first banner on JP remains my luckiest ever in FGO, with 3 copies in a single - and my only - multi. As such, she quickly became a mainstay in my roster, and it's been quite addicting watching her nuke everything in her path. I probably will have to wait until December to achieve similar results on Global though. Right now SQ are low and Oberon an Koyan are on the horizon. I'll toss 2-3 multis toward Melusine, but I don't think there's any way in hell I'd get as lucky as in JP. One copy would already be a pretty welcome surprise.
25:50 my favourite Welfare Castoria xD Anyway, spent ~500 sq on rolling for Castoria out of my ~1k budget. Not great but not terrible. Probably won't have enough to pity Oberon, but should still have a more than a decent chance. Would be a bit peeved if I hadn't gotten two copied of her on the last roll ;P
The biggest temptation is not Koyan, but rolling on the Melusine Perci banner. I really like Percis kit and potentially pulling Melusine is such a test, but Oberon comes first.
We've seem them pretty hilariously replicate issues that jp fixed because they didn't bring forward the code for the fix. I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen again. 😂
As someone who rolled NP5 in ~160 pulls, I'm literally just starting to learn about the actual meta of the game so this guide is super helpful! Thanks! Edit: watching through all these stats, she truly is ridiculously OP 😂
rn my funds are 2450 sq and 100 tickets, however I need to save 1800 sq for Koyan and Oberon. I hope I can get her to atleast NP2-3 in her first banner and NP5 her later this year, where I use what is left of my funds after Koyan and Oberon
I get your feeling there. Plan to approach it about the same way. Although you could stretch out the Melusine rolls a bit further taking into account what we'll probably get for the anniversary. Plus there is probably going to be a one day carryover where Melusine and Koyan are available at the same time. Could see how much you need for Koyan, set aside 900 quartz for Oberon to be safe, and see what happens. But no need to be that calculating either XD.
Hey what should I do I didnt expect to even dream of getting Melusine but I got really really lucky on both morgan and castoria now I have 1000 sq and 60 tickets on one and 800 sq and 75 tickets on the other I know I got lucky and will probably get shafted but I dont have lancer besides cu and welfare yu but than maybe i can get both oberon and koyan so I don't know what to do would appreciate some suggestions
It really depends on what you're doing with her. NP1 is fine for most content with the appropriate support units. She won't be able to do everything, but that's true of every unit. Naturally then higher np levels means more damage and fewer nodes she would have issue with.
NP2 is a 33% damage increase. After that, the bonuses decrease dramatically. This is true for every dps servant, except if they have an NP strengthening. In that case, the increase in only 25%. You get the same jump NP1 to NP2 as you do from NP2 to NP5, but because the increase is additive this is only a 25% damage increase for 3 copies (20% for NP with a strengthening quest). Here is AoE buster multipliers for example (strengthened in parentheses): NP1: 300% (400%) NP2: 400% (500%) NP3: 450% (550%) NP4: 475% (575%) NP5: 500% (600%)
Not me having difficulty trying to resist the urge to pull her, so I can try to get Koyan and Oberon, while hoping I get her in her rerun down the road.
Gonna try for at least 2 while rolling for 5 Percival but depending on how that goes might have to settle for 1. Ether way will try to get 2 more on the next banner. Not sure if I want to go for NP5 on her 3rd banner that we know of because when I comes to limited 5 stars NP5 tends to make life annoying for me during GSSRs since seeing a servant I have NP5 in a pool scares me off since I would be sad to roll them. This all depends on my luck holding but considering I got NP3 Morgan while trying to NP5 Bhargest and Baobhan I'm starting to worry my luck will slam into a wall soon.
Got her! I finally got her! It was a whim, used 30 sq in singles got a Percival, then just because I used 3sq more and got her. Now a question what is the minimum NP level for Omni farming?
So, after a battle using her 3rd skill, does she revert back to 1st/2nd ascension in a new battle or does she retain her 3rd ascension? This is important as if not, you have to change her ascension after every battle and that is really painful especially in lotto events.
I am interested in getting her because of CHOCO. Their art for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 were amazing. I also got spoiled by the voiced scene of her with Muramasa and other person. It was cute, funny and awesome to hear.
She will be the first servant I will fully go all in until I get her to np 5 I have some other servants at np 5 but that just cuzz reruns I never have gone all out on any servant before so hope I get lucky
Depends on your quartz resources and other targets. Melusine will outperform Spishtar, though at that level of investment, probably not enough to matter for most content if you are low in quartz with a lot of other targets coming up soon.
99% of the time Spish is better, with the tangent that you have both Castoria and Oberon. The only nodes that Spish can't do at 6-slot are 1/1/x and Melu doesn't really work against Sabers. So if you're looking for another option, she's a good pick if you have the necessary supports, but if you're looking for something that's better than your NP5 Spish at lowe investment...that doesn't exist. Even if you NP5 Melu, she'll still be inferior to Spish.
Hmmm... I just got Morgan and gave her all my Golden Fous, Beast Footprints, Level 100 and such, I want her to be my main DPS so I was planning on get her to NP2 after Oberon to get more damage for 90++ nodes. But... between that or getting NP1 Melusine, what's more worth? I get that neither Morgan or Melusine can farm those at NP1. Also what's the problem of that? Just time wasting? Do you loose rewards if you don't 3 turn it or something?
90% of dmg buff you get are 3 turn cooldown, so turn 4 you hav non, and when you farm you want it to take as little time as possible therefore 3 turn not more. Technically you only need 1 farmer and other than that you roll for love. There are multiple farmers that will suffice, melusine is bit more forgiving and easy to use
Too bad, I really like to use random ascension in my account configuration. Now I have to go through my roster and set it individually for every unit that doesn't matter.
Definitely going to roll for her even if I have to skip both Oberon and Koyanskaya for now, hoping for at least NP2... (well at least Koyan Light will be back in January after Koyan Dark)
It’s finally time to roll for my Wife. Definitely getting her np5 day 1 and np6 later for lvl 120 and max appends. I need my cute dragon wife and I don’t care if I have to sell my soul to get her!
Gonna skip that one. Castoria and Morgan are enough for my account (FGO and bank) for some time. Hot take: I don't care for your Oberon and unga bunga damage.
It’s always up to you but I want to note that a lot of people said the same thing about Oberon when he first came out. Then 90++ nodes arrived and they were begging for a rerun..
She’s very good but people please don’t forget to manage your SQ so you can get a copy of Oberon please, it’ll suck if you don’t get him…but always know too “WAIFU OVER META”!😂
all things considered, she is a must summon she's Castoria's opposite in that while Castoria support others to an incredible degree, Melusine carry herself through any difficult battle if not outright nuke it
Let’s just say I spent a unholy amount to get np5 melusine and to give you an idea I have managed to collect 31 Percival before I managed to np5 her. 😃
Melusine has played out really well over the years. She's one of those investments that you're sure will have staying power, as only recently have we had new unit releases that rival her damage capacity or exceed it.

No, I think her kit is just stupidly good but I have 835 SQ and every SQ I have and will get (until I reach 900SQ) will go towards Oberon.
Np1 for me hopefully
did you think the devs overdid it with Tiamat?
NP5. I have waited for her arrival on NA for too long. Ofc hoping for the same luck I got on JP might not be realistic (NP2 120 sq 1st banner, NP3 60 sq 2nd banner and NP5 150 sq 3rd banner).

I shall save until her second banner, so how many copies I can get shall depend entirely on my luck.
I love how her artist CHOCO basically just brought a redesign of his original character "KOS-MOS" from Xenosaga into FGO and they made her just as ridiculously powerful as the original.
Gonna be rolling for NP1 and do the rest later this year, looking forward to all the Percivals ruining my day (even if he himself is great)
It really do be like that. 😂
Not sure I agree with that, but there are a couple similarities.
Now, Summer Melusine with miniguns, *that's* going to be the Kos-Mos redesign. Regular Melusine is clearly interested in getting to switch to the Berserker Lancelot.
Biggest reason why I want her. I absolutely love Kosmos.
I love CHOCO'S art and Xenosaga so I bought all his art books of both KOS-MOS and Melusine. That's shits gonna be my catalyst.
Wait, the artist was the guy who designed KOS-MOS? Damn, i didn't know that, now i gotta roll for her. I may have 430 sq (+200 in fragments), but I can hope for her and Oberon. I dunno, I feel deluded with that though.

@@TheAnaz41745 Arjuna also outdamages her most of the time. Morgan is arguably too. Nerf Melu and she has no purpose in the game
@@6ToesHeACreature The thing is, the two skills she does have in that form are both really good. 40% attack up, 500 damage cut, +2000 max HP, 30% NP, star absorb, stars per turn, and star bomb. The only things she's missing in that form are utility, survivability, and crit damage up.
I think it is also worth noting that in events with 50% CEs, you can use her as a typical 30% charger in the double Koyanskaya and Oberon setup, and start her off in her third ascension to get some more damage (get to benefit from using her third skill twice for more NP dmg) than starting her off in 1st/2nd ascension, since you'd have to give up Black Grail.
with that set up, doesnt it gave the same result or even worst than starting with 1st/2nd asc + black grail? you basically have the same buff on turn 3 but without black grail and lower output with oberon 3rd skill?
Definitely rolling for melusine!
The plan: hope to help that Oberon and koyan banners overlap so I can roll both, and then save up to roll the highest melu copy I can manage at the end of year.
If they don't overlap, I might have to stick to np1 and get koyan and hard save for Arcuid or something. Or maybe just admit that I run an arts account lmao
Closest thing to getting KOS-MOS in my gacha of course i want her! Shes just cute af, yeah im hyped for Mels na release but 6th anniversary is coming.
I plan to roll 900 SQ for Melu. At worst i'll get NP1. Ideally i'll score and get 6 copies to max her out. After the hell that is coming up with Vitch and Oberon, I plan to save all my SQ until her next banner in december to get whatever other NP levels I need to make Melu into a demon. Oh, and I also have 26 of each type of gold fou stockpiled.
... 26? Have I gone overkill? I have way over 100 of both gold fou types saved up...
@@NevisYsbryd 26 is all i've been able to save after 2k fouing my Summer Musashi. But since you ask... you need 50 of each gold fou to bring a character up to 2k/2k. So if you have over 100, you can do at least two servants. Got anyone in mind? :o
@@CrazyYurie A few, though undecided. I have not used any yet, hence my stockpile. I am running out of inventory room >x<
Definite candidates include Jalter, Van Gogh, Tiamat when she comes on NA, and Dantes and Arthur if they ever get brought up to par. Potential/undecided candidates include Morgan, Melusine (I suspect I will be taken with both, yet, as I have avoided a lot of the spoiler material, I do not know enough about either as characters to say for certain), and Kama.
@@NevisYsbryd I certainly understand the dilemma. I actually could have sunk my own gold fous into another servant. I have Jalter too who is currently on her way to lvl 120 (need more bond/coins), Spishtar, and many other servants of high quality in my Chaldea like Morgan, Odysseus, Kama, Seiba, Gilgamesh, etc etc. Ultimately I've chosen to go with Melusine because I plan to use her far more extensively than any of the other candidates (with the possible exception of Spishtar and Morgan). In other words, I am prioritizing gameplay over love for the characters.
On a related note, if you have not been spoiled on LB6, I won't spoil you. All I will say is that Melusine and *especially* Morgan get much more character development in the parts yet to be released on NA.
My hope remains to get as many NP levels as luck will allow me. Will throw a ton of quartz at her banner, roll on GSSRs, and keep her December banner in mind. The most quartz I've set aside for any servant. But it will all come down to luck. The more the better since that will just let her be a nearly unstoppable force.
May not be about gameplay, but that design is fantastic. Was interested enough to get those CHOCO art books and there are fantastic details in there. It doesn't hurt that she's still got a really interesting gameplay design. The double NP is fun to have and will be interesting to play around. Great design, personality, and will probably be my main farming attacker for a long time.
Thanks for telling me she's not needed to be np2 but someone this strong I kinda want her to be.
I just pulled Morgan and Castoria (because i started after her banner) so my SQ funds are in shambles idk if i'll even manage to get Koyan or Oberon, so melusine gonna have to be a skip this time ...
You can try for her in the 6th anniversary lucky bag
@@SmartyPantsDash I'm probably gonna try for Skadi in lucky bag, since most of my DPS are quick, or Koyan if she's in lucky bag and I don't drop her but thanks for the heads up 👍
@@Pomho1812 glad to help. Skadi is a solid choice and I'm still doubting to go for her as well. Koyan is on rate up on the same time, so unfortunately she's not included in the lucky bag :(
@@SmartyPantsDash Welp guess lucky bag is gonna be Skadi, hopefully everyone get the chars they want whether it be in lucky bag or banners. Best of luck to you o7
As a Lancer collector I would just like to get the one for now, but go for NP2 later on, but I don't want her to be the end-all-be-all for my account. That's reserved for my Kamas.
Sadge i already have units that fill her role in my account, Spishtar for Omni farming and Roma/Enkidu for Archer cleanups.
still going strong for both Oberon/Koyan to enable my other Buster units, so i cant get sidetracked.
Goodluck to anyone pulling for her doe, shes CRACKED.
i WANT and NEED her but i dont have enough quartz to get koyan and oberon so i guess ill just go for her rerun
I always summon for unique skills, even if she was mid it would be an easy np2. Like abigail summer.
Melusine's first banner on JP remains my luckiest ever in FGO, with 3 copies in a single - and my only - multi. As such, she quickly became a mainstay in my roster, and it's been quite addicting watching her nuke everything in her path.
I probably will have to wait until December to achieve similar results on Global though. Right now SQ are low and Oberon an Koyan are on the horizon. I'll toss 2-3 multis toward Melusine, but I don't think there's any way in hell I'd get as lucky as in JP. One copy would already be a pretty welcome surprise.
25:50 my favourite Welfare Castoria xD
Anyway, spent ~500 sq on rolling for Castoria out of my ~1k budget. Not great but not terrible. Probably won't have enough to pity Oberon, but should still have a more than a decent chance. Would be a bit peeved if I hadn't gotten two copied of her on the last roll ;P
I got her np1 from her first banner cause I had to np5 Morgan first.
But this 2nd banner this month of her bless me with 4 more copies!
The biggest temptation is not Koyan, but rolling on the Melusine Perci banner. I really like Percis kit and potentially pulling Melusine is such a test, but Oberon comes first.
What NP level would Melusine need to be to compete with NP3 Arjuna Alter or NP5 Morgan (in a farming context)?
Np1 Melusine outdamages np5 Arjuna Alter with class advantage
NP3
Melusine with her comp deals higher neutral damage than Arjuna Alter at equal NP level
@@TheAnaz41745 She doesnt. Arjuna outdamages her turn 1 doubles her damage turn 2 and she outdamages him barely turn 3
@@user-tb4zj8sp1k😂😂😂
NP1 Bunnytoria outdamages AA with class advantage too. That's a stupid answer lmao.
NP3
I am rolling NP3, then NP5 in December
Update: Hit pity for NP1 and got NP2 a few multis later. Total count: 1062sq it was really disappointing
Bug might be something fixed in a future build or something. I don’t know. I have no idea how the NA version of FGO is built lol
We've seem them pretty hilariously replicate issues that jp fixed because they didn't bring forward the code for the fix. I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen again. 😂
As someone who rolled NP5 in ~160 pulls, I'm literally just starting to learn about the actual meta of the game so this guide is super helpful! Thanks!
Edit: watching through all these stats, she truly is ridiculously OP 😂
rn my funds are 2450 sq and 100 tickets, however I need to save 1800 sq for Koyan and Oberon. I hope I can get her to atleast NP2-3 in her first banner and NP5 her later this year, where I use what is left of my funds after Koyan and Oberon
I get your feeling there. Plan to approach it about the same way. Although you could stretch out the Melusine rolls a bit further taking into account what we'll probably get for the anniversary. Plus there is probably going to be a one day carryover where Melusine and Koyan are available at the same time. Could see how much you need for Koyan, set aside 900 quartz for Oberon to be safe, and see what happens.
But no need to be that calculating either XD.
@@Flaris so is it confirmed melusine banner and koyan will overlap? If it is then its best for me to roll rght then
Wait they are?
Hey what should I do I didnt expect to even dream of getting Melusine but I got really really lucky on both morgan and castoria now I have 1000 sq and 60 tickets on one and 800 sq and 75 tickets on the other I know I got lucky and will probably get shafted but I dont have lancer besides cu and welfare yu but than maybe i can get both oberon and koyan so I don't know what to do would appreciate some suggestions
What np level is recommended? Is np1 ok or should i try to get a higher level?
np1 might be lacking on some beefy 90++ middle wave, I'd go for np2 at least
It really depends on what you're doing with her. NP1 is fine for most content with the appropriate support units. She won't be able to do everything, but that's true of every unit. Naturally then higher np levels means more damage and fewer nodes she would have issue with.
NP2 is a 33% damage increase. After that, the bonuses decrease dramatically. This is true for every dps servant, except if they have an NP strengthening. In that case, the increase in only 25%.
You get the same jump NP1 to NP2 as you do from NP2 to NP5, but because the increase is additive this is only a 25% damage increase for 3 copies (20% for NP with a strengthening quest).
Here is AoE buster multipliers for example (strengthened in parentheses):
NP1: 300% (400%)
NP2: 400% (500%)
NP3: 450% (550%)
NP4: 475% (575%)
NP5: 500% (600%)
@@luxadia7310 Lol she can't do 90++ regardless unless it's Archers
heavenly demon princess art some of the best art in game for a CE
Not me having difficulty trying to resist the urge to pull her, so I can try to get Koyan and Oberon, while hoping I get her in her rerun down the road.
NP5 first day ☺️
Gotta brace for that storm that is koyanskaya and oberon
Melusine can wait on rerun
What is considered high np levels for farming? I have np3 and plan on 120 is that enough to neutral or counterclass farm?
i'd like to go and get oberon and koyan first if all of their banners are out at the same time, then go all in for Melusine
Gonna try for at least 2 while rolling for 5 Percival but depending on how that goes might have to settle for 1. Ether way will try to get 2 more on the next banner. Not sure if I want to go for NP5 on her 3rd banner that we know of because when I comes to limited 5 stars NP5 tends to make life annoying for me during GSSRs since seeing a servant I have NP5 in a pool scares me off since I would be sad to roll them.
This all depends on my luck holding but considering I got NP3 Morgan while trying to NP5 Bhargest and Baobhan I'm starting to worry my luck will slam into a wall soon.
I love her np.
Got her! I finally got her! It was a whim, used 30 sq in singles got a Percival, then just because I used 3sq more and got her. Now a question what is the minimum NP level for Omni farming?
So, after a battle using her 3rd skill, does she revert back to 1st/2nd ascension in a new battle or does she retain her 3rd ascension?
This is important as if not, you have to change her ascension after every battle and that is really painful especially in lotto events.
Not that I'm aware of.
@@artofthepossible7329 what are you not aware of? Sry but that's really not clear enough.
She'll start every battle in the ascension you set her up as from her profile, no worries
@@wilsonl3911 That if you use Melusine's first ascension and use her 3rd skill, she'll stay in her 3rd ascension.
I'm confused now. I have 2 conflicting answers.
I am interested in getting her because of CHOCO. Their art for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 were amazing. I also got spoiled by the voiced scene of her with Muramasa and other person. It was cute, funny and awesome to hear.
She will be the first servant I will fully go all in until I get her to np 5 I have some other servants at np 5 but that just cuzz reruns I never have gone all out on any servant before so hope I get lucky
The Strongest Fairy in the Universe 🌟
Is Mesuline fine at np1 or should I go for np2?
Worth to roll for melusine when you already have NP5 s.ishtar as universal farmer or does the 100% battery makes a high difference?
Depends on your quartz resources and other targets. Melusine will outperform Spishtar, though at that level of investment, probably not enough to matter for most content if you are low in quartz with a lot of other targets coming up soon.
99% of the time Spish is better, with the tangent that you have both Castoria and Oberon. The only nodes that Spish can't do at 6-slot are 1/1/x and Melu doesn't really work against Sabers. So if you're looking for another option, she's a good pick if you have the necessary supports, but if you're looking for something that's better than your NP5 Spish at lowe investment...that doesn't exist. Even if you NP5 Melu, she'll still be inferior to Spish.
Would a friend Melu NP5 max grail do more damage than NP1 non max grail with their respective loop setups?
Since castoria drained all of my Oberon funds.... i'll wait Melusine's banner on december
Want to do at least np2... i wanted to np2 Morgan.... but she never came on summons again :(
Hmmm... I just got Morgan and gave her all my Golden Fous, Beast Footprints, Level 100 and such, I want her to be my main DPS so I was planning on get her to NP2 after Oberon to get more damage for 90++ nodes. But... between that or getting NP1 Melusine, what's more worth? I get that neither Morgan or Melusine can farm those at NP1. Also what's the problem of that? Just time wasting? Do you loose rewards if you don't 3 turn it or something?
90% of dmg buff you get are 3 turn cooldown, so turn 4 you hav non, and when you farm you want it to take as little time as possible therefore 3 turn not more. Technically you only need 1 farmer and other than that you roll for love. There are multiple farmers that will suffice, melusine is bit more forgiving and easy to use
When will lolilot gonna be releasing in NA anyway?
Does anyone know where i can download the Morgan gif next to the Khadroth name?
Too bad, I really like to use random ascension in my account configuration. Now I have to go through my roster and set it individually for every unit that doesn't matter.
Bruh you can manually set Melu to "fixed" asc instead of changing your overall account settings
@@kun2588 I checked, I can't because ascension settings for individual servants are disabled when the option is enabled in account settings.
Morgan killed my savings and with koyan so close...melu ain't coming home (until her second banner)
For 90++ farming, who is better? Mel/Taimat/Summer Ibuki?
S Ibuki since Buster is pretty bad at multicore
@@Fiery-failureIsn't it arts that's bad at irregular nodes?
Against Cavalry? Tiamom. Against all except sabers? Melusine. Against all in general? S.Ibuki.

@@muratticugaratti1571 🤨 what do you mean?
Is she good enough at NP1?
Rolled the Melusine banner. Out of the two rate up lancer's... I got an Enkidu spook. I mean... Now i dont need to use the ticket on them now
Nah man ,I'm skipping her ..Im good with Ereshkigal ..In Jp she also one of the servants carries me all the way on lb7
I'm planning to skip her for the chance to get Oberon, but maybe LB6 part 2 will change my mind.
Now, if only I could get her S1 to 10, I’d be golden 😢
Just got her at NP2 while watching your video and playing at the same time. Looks like I’ve gotta sub now. Only 2 multi pulls too!!!
Definitely going to roll for her even if I have to skip both Oberon and Koyanskaya for now, hoping for at least NP2...
(well at least Koyan Light will be back in January after Koyan Dark)
It’s finally time to roll for my Wife. Definitely getting her np5 day 1 and np6 later for lvl 120 and max appends. I need my cute dragon wife and I don’t care if I have to sell my soul to get her!
Here's my own analysis of melusine:
Cute waifu=must whale
I just want Percy. I don’t need or want Melusine. Please let me no5 Percy smoothly without Melusine spook 🙏
Dude your volume keeps going lower
Gonna skip that one. Castoria and Morgan are enough for my account (FGO and bank) for some time. Hot take: I don't care for your Oberon and unga bunga damage.
It’s always up to you but I want to note that a lot of people said the same thing about Oberon when he first came out. Then 90++ nodes arrived and they were begging for a rerun..
What I'm doing here, i don't even play this. I don't even understand shit
Wee NP5555555 {at least np3 lol for me }
Is it just me or is he getting quieter?
She’s very good but people please don’t forget to manage your SQ so you can get a copy of Oberon please, it’ll suck if you don’t get him…but always know too “WAIFU OVER META”!😂
all things considered, she is a must summon
she's Castoria's opposite in that while Castoria support others to an incredible degree, Melusine carry herself through any difficult battle if not outright nuke it
Let’s just say I spent a unholy amount to get np5 melusine and to give you an idea I have managed to collect 31 Percival before I managed to np5 her. 😃
1 copy for collection purposes if lucky.
Not fun, not a great design. Won't help my favorites servants to loop. Not for me.
