Exactly. FGO: "We are going to club you like a baby seal while ramming a large, redwood tree up your nether region!" And seriously, doing it for a SINGLE summon ticket and few mats? 😂
@@ktktktktktktkt after using her enough (because I have her Bond 10), I can say that Stheno is really good for clearing most of the story quests... but that being said, she's not amazing for most stuff outside of her niche, I still find her 40% Charisma for Divine servants insanely good though.
@@GAReviews My major pain point is that I'm missing Irisviel and some of these CQ's heavily rely on the her. Only if Shez had her skill upgrade come earlier sigh.
Couldn't King Hassan himself work as a substitute for BB on the Hassan CQ? He's got a passive that makes him outright immune to Insta-death (even less RNG than BB), and has guts and self heals in case he needs to tank some damage without hard mitigation.
Idk if that death immunity passive will work, his charm immunity doesn't work in the Medb challenge quest and while I was researching I couldn't find any instances of anyone trying King Hassan. So worth a try
@@GAReviews To be fair, he doesn't have charm immunity. His passive gives him 100% resistance to it, which is usually enough to effectively make him "immune", but Medb's charm hit rate (at least for the CQ) is 500% (I believe), meaning that he'd need another 400% resistance from other sources to be "immune" to it. Meanwhile, his death immunity is specifically stated to be immunity, so I doubt he would be able to be killed unless the boss had death immunity ignorance on top of his increased insta-death hit chance buff. Might just have to try it out for myself when it comes around. Might be interesting to see if it would work.
I used my own KH to clear the quest and it works. Taking on the main hassans, he’ll outright get “no effect” wen they use their death skill, and with protection of the faith he blocks the regular Hassan’s spite skill. Took me 41 turns since he’s neutral damage but it makes the battle very easy.
-slowly shaking with Da Vinci’s quest- I swear not to be rude to FGO, but they love to make you rage not only in Gacha but also quests. Thanks FGO. Hopefully we can pass these! Thank you for the guide!
If you have Waver, Mash and Tamamo, and a couple of Shroud of Magdalene & Iron-Willed Training CEs, you can completely nullify Stella damage (it becomes 0 damage when defense boost goes over 100%). Just make sure you have Waver's 2nd skill, Mash's 1st skill (the damage cut is important, so cast it RIGHT before Stella turn) and 2 Lord Camelots active while all three are equipped with those CEs ^. Even one Lord Camelot is enough to nullify most of the damage, though two is necessary to completely nullify it. Control the Stella timing using Waver NP and Tamamo's 1st skill. You can also use Tamamo NP to adjust your skill cooldowns. This is probably a lot less risky and an easier method than Irisviel Guts spam, if you have the setup for it. Good luck, masters.
2:25 I defeated him with Archuria, Waver and d'Eon, actually. Amazing team against him since you can loop Archuria's NP while d'Eon keeps her safe. Between two characters with NP-draining NPs, Spartacus never gets to use his own NP, anyway.
Hey guys, just a little PSA for those of you trying the King Hassan Fight: AS OF RIGHT NOW HE DOES NOT ONLY TARGET THE LEFTMOST SERVANT, HE CAN, AND HE WILL RANDOMLY MASSACRE ANY OF YOUR TEAMMAMBERS
@@zero20ab that only works if you take a different course of action(use a different np/skill etc) Btw i managed to beat hassan using a friend support sanzang, merlin, waver, iri and nero caster. Took 2 command seals because he just had to use 2 buster dodges in a row when sanzang had her np but worth
With the bgm and u going through all the Exhibition quests and then the CQ at the end. This is going to be exciting (and probably also a little painful).
i manage to solo spartacus with my NP2 melt, and her skills were only at level 6. im never complaining about getting her instead of passionlip ever again because that solo was fantastic and much more fun than just nuking him with an euryale. wish i could record it with in game audio...
70 some days into this game... can’t even beat whack Siegfried. I wish my Sieg was as good as the dumb npc enemy one. Can’t wait till my ticket to get Saber Alter. Those grand prize CE’s maxed didn’t even touch em or effective archer/berserker NP’s... I’ll just get stuff to trade in shop. Great guide and awesome content as usual sir
You need to use servants with ignore defense on their NPs, like Emiya for example. Pretty sure a Berserker Kintoki with the damage CE can even oneshot Siegfried.
Vivi Orunitia he didn’t have evade on though but I did attempt to hit him with strong NP’s level 2 and nothing. Even a maxed out support carrying that 200% damage thing. It was eating like tens or hundreds at most of damage of the tens of thousands he has. Does it have to be crit damage or something? I don’t have a lot of servants or CE’s. As I said I’m new and still figuring it out :(
After- Math yeah maybe using him as support since I don’t have him. I’m assuming he’s a caster? My only Casters are Nero, Ilya, Medea, Paracelsus, Nursery and Hans with I think Shakespeare?
@@blackblurable Sherlock is a ruler. And you need servants with ignore DEF, not ignore EVADE. There's a lot of them. Just look up in the FGO wiki whether you have one built up. If not, use one as a support or have Sherlock grant ignore DEF to them.
I finished my very first challenge quest this time after 6 months of playing and 115 levels by giving Euyrale MLB three legged race and one shotting each of Sparticus' HP bars with her lv 5 NP. I feel accomplished.
Just finished the exhibition match on King Hassan and I finally saw the pattern from his "RNG": I brought Irisviel on prisma cosmos with me for almost spammable party guts with a Merlin support for hp and np battery and Mash for def buff. Try to cast guts when King Hassan's np gauge gets one to two charge because the next turn after his charge has a chance to np one of your servants. And oncethe guts effect wears off use Merlin's party invincibility buff and try to prioritize on filling Iri's np then merlin on second, try keep Iri and Merlin alive until your servant with the DPS ce shows up.
Surprised you didn't mention bb on the davinchi quest. She saved my ass hard as dps. Pretty much could always hit whoever she wanted with her debuff immunity. As well as her stun being able to stop da vinci from being able to Pierce your invuln with her np.
You didn't mention at all that King Hassan is completely immune to insta kills. BB still has a chance of dying in the KH quest to insta kills, while bringing KH to fight himself outright negates the gimmick altogether. Plus he's much better fit as a DPS in general for this fight, having his own guts, heal and defense up. Or bring both of them, one in the backrow, if things go wrong.
I don't know if that will work, usually for challenge quests his passives get ignored. For example if you bring King Hassan to the Medb battle, he still gets charmed even though he has charm immunity. So it's likely he will still die to instant death in this battle. Wasn't able to confirm this though so it's worth a try when it comes out

@@Eternalsenpai I thought you couldn't use duplicate supports in these CQs, or was that different on the JP side of things for this Nerofest iteration?
Actually you can use nero caster as a semi-taunter agains spartacus(her second skill helps her survive him for a surprising amount of time),she can also give you main damage dealer huge atack boost
Id like you to highlight how marie antoinette is actually a go to for most of these challenges as her selfheals, 2 arts deck, 3 turns invincibility and np heal are super usefull as long as you can provide her with guts (irisviel/nero caster) she will take the pressure off quite nicely
Concerning the new challenge quest, don't try gilgamesh the dmg output won't be enough this time, instead use Cu alter as your main dmg paired with kaleidoscope jeanne / mash / assassin scahahahaha / georgios if you can
Can you please comment of on the King Hassan exhibition? In NA specifically King Hassan can target any servant with his taunt at the start of each turn. Right now we have no guarantee that the quest will be fixed. Yes BB and King Hassan himself are pretty useless now to nullify the death effects on the boss' NP. Irisviel is now the single most important servant for clearing that quest.
Unfortunately there isn't much I can add, Iri is the most important servant to bring there and you should have BB as well but because he targets randomly the quest is too RNG based to give a solid strategy for. Reset the quest if he kills Iri and try to change the seed by using a skill/different command cards
I mean, for Spartacus you can just use Diarmuid. His NP is quick and removes buffs anyway, so I just gave him an event CE, hooked him up with a Waver and a healer, and let him go nuts. It was pretty easy 😂✌️
@@mister2115 I gave her the dmg CE and ran Mash and a support Merlin. Just defensed up so she wouldn't die. And used Mashed Target lock to keep him away. Her NP would one shot every time
Thanks for the guide (i need it more this year that last year) and i going to post and update how i did it: (UPDATE 12-09-2019) 1)Sparty: Melt, Jacky and Mash did almost all the job, Melt especially dance for days, is always fun to use a Quick team and i could have used my 10/10/10 Euryale but that would be too easy 2)Fox JK: Kuro and Robin erased firts bar, second bar erased by Okita and in the third one Ushi and Okita gave so many deffu that was crazy, i though that would be more hard but i had really lucky with facecard and the taunt of Suzuka 3)STELLA!: I wanted to do it with a Leonidas, Tamamo, Mashu setup but i fail like 3 times so i said hell and put Iri, turned out that Leonidas, Tamamo, Iri was more fun, guts for days, Tamamo and Iri didn't die with 1000HP because Leonidas always tank the attacks 4)Indian Brothers: i didn't want to do this one but well i wanted the ticket, after some fails and help i win it, though the RNG of Arjuna NP wasn't fun 5)Da Vinchi stop using Invincible Pierce PLEASE: honestly this was a fun one, after read all i tried with a Kuro, Tamamo, Waver setup and was really close but i always was dead by the Boar, them i change because using Jeanne is better and hell, a BB, Tamamo, Jeanne Setup was just that i need it, though it was a really pain in the ass when the AOE enemies came 6)Grand Assassin: I just try like 5 times and the last 2 the last day, i really thought i wouldn't beat him but my Iri, Tamamo and Merlin team was really lucky and KH didn't insta death one with his attacks so i resist a lot of turn plus Medea Lily help, went Xuanzang came she erase firts bar like nothing AND AFTER SOME SHIT WITH THE EVADE I COULD FINISH HIM WITH BEST GIRL XUANZANG I FUCKING LOVE YOU BABE SHOWING UP WHY YOU ARE LV100 BONDLV10 FUCKING YEAHHHHHHH! 7)Emperor Bloomer: Everyone was right this was a lot easy that i though Kiyohime, Mash, Waver did all the work, though i had to try like 5 times because when Cu was alive with Nero, he was a pain in the ass so after some good cards Kiyo erase firts groud minus Medea, later Medea Lily is out and i keep alive to another Kiyo NP to erase second groud, at last Nero was alone and i had my revenge PD: For the fun of it i tried to do Suzuka CQ with a Okita solo and reddit was right she can do it herself, poor Suzuka
On sparty I just used mash waver and meltlilit. Melt is good at spamming the hell out of her np so I just kept removing his heals as well as getting his healing down each turn. The recast of the heal is important as it takes away an action from sparty
I love challenge quests. I liked Spartacus battle and I enjoyed Suzuka despite the RNG. Arash, however, is a right bastard. EDIT: Also, a question. Would Gramps be a viable DPS against King Hassan?
The spartacus one i actually used summer artoria to finish the quest within 8 turns I just didnt want to deal with a long battle in that since on jp i snailed that battle because i liked being that guy
Something to note about KH Quest is that the taunt only applies to his FIRST attack per turn, and his next one can target anyone (also, don't be a dumbass and accidentally remove the taunt debuff on his NP turn because then he'll hit anyone).
I tried suzuka(no prep) and made it to her final bar, but it caught me off guard and I got wiped. Watched this video immediately after lol. I'll try again tomorrow.
Just done with Spartacus last night. Spartacus didn't even managed to dent the Regenerating Shield Wall of Death. My lineup from that fight is Mash on 2030, Gramps on mlb Goddess Ce, and a Merlin support.
I managed to beat King Hassan with a Herc, Iri, Waver and Merlin. However that taunt bug is seriously infuriating, I do not recommend doing it until last if your that desperate for summon tickets.
It's odd. On jp release, I tried using King Hassan to survive King Hassan's insta-kill (pun intended), but then King Hassan started targeting randomly AGAIN like last year instead of targeting only King Hassan. King Hassan did this for a few runs. Then when I removed King Hassan from my party line up and used someone other than King Hassan, King Hassan started targeting the first servant only. I don't get it, but thank god we have skadi this time around with her "insta-kill immunity" np to weather that regardless.
Ah, that feeling when you don’t have Iri cuz you started the game after the f/z event... time to borrow my friend’s max bond herc and have summer umu give him his first guts, I guess
I'd suggest swapping Tamamo out for Waver, Merlin, or Hans. Tamamo is great but she doesn't work ideally with Jalter due to her being arts focused and Jalter being buster heavy
@@FGBunag If you swap out Jalter, Caster Gil would be perfect in that spot for supporting Nero and if you don't have him you can pick him up with the free 4* ticket next week
And then there is this new version where he Attacks who he wants, when he wants XD fml this was brutal ... BUT Nero Caster is a way to go - her NP Ignores his evade
So king Hassan’s quest came out today... I placed my king Hassan in front of my team for death immunity... And challenge quest king Hassan applied taunt on my Merlin all the way behind He targets whoever he wants This just became more RNG based
Can you help me with a team comp? Got the following 5* SSR's Jeanne D'Arc Alter (Avenger) SummerTamamo no mae (Lancer) Tamamo no mae (Caster) Arturia Pendragon (Saber) Nero Bride (Saber) 4* SR's Summer Ishtar(Rider) Summer Marie Antoinette(Caster) Summer Nitocris(Assassin) Summer Scáthach (Assassin) Carmilla (Assassin) Stheno (Assassin) Berseker of El Dorado (Berseker) Thanks a lot! Loved your vids a ton.
Tamamo, Nero Bride, and Mash is a pretty strong stall team that'll work for most of the challenge quests. You can also go for Jeanne Alter, Berserker of El DOrado, and a support Merlin if you want more firepower for the situations where you need to kill someone fast
took spartacus out using kintoki rider, kintoki is perfect againts him my team comp was george, mhx alter(support build) kintoki, kotaro fuuma,alexander and support mash took only 3 turns, kintoki can np spam because he will crit alot 3 times np and evetything is history lol
Challenge quests? All i know is petals.

You don't need a trailed Euryale for sparty tho. I used my lvl 70 Euryale at 6/5/6 and beat him easily

@@Eternalsenpai I thought you couldn't use duplicate supports in these CQs, or was that different on the JP side of things for this Nerofest iteration?
You are probably mixing the hassans fights since for the KH we cant use doubles
@Gamefreak346 it was for the Hassan cq from last year
@@Eternalsenpai Ah, makes sense.
KH himself has death immunity with his passive skill. Is he worth it for the hassan CQ?
Not sure if that will work or not for the challenge, wasn't able to verify so it's worth a try
Actually you can use nero caster as a semi-taunter agains spartacus(her second skill helps her survive him for a surprising amount of time),she can also give you main damage dealer huge atack boost
Id like you to highlight how marie antoinette is actually a go to for most of these challenges as her selfheals, 2 arts deck, 3 turns invincibility and np heal are super usefull as long as you can provide her with guts (irisviel/nero caster) she will take the pressure off quite nicely
Concerning the new challenge quest, don't try gilgamesh the dmg output won't be enough this time, instead use Cu alter as your main dmg paired with kaleidoscope jeanne / mash / assassin scahahahaha / georgios if you can
I forgot about the 3 legged goddess so the first 3 CQs took a lot longer especially the Cu + Scathatch one.
Can you please comment of on the King Hassan exhibition? In NA specifically King Hassan can target any servant with his taunt at the start of each turn. Right now we have no guarantee that the quest will be fixed. Yes BB and King Hassan himself are pretty useless now to nullify the death effects on the boss' NP. Irisviel is now the single most important servant for clearing that quest.
Unfortunately there isn't much I can add, Iri is the most important servant to bring there and you should have BB as well but because he targets randomly the quest is too RNG based to give a solid strategy for. Reset the quest if he kills Iri and try to change the seed by using a skill/different command cards
For Spartacus I used cu alter merlin and paul bunyan for backline sherlock and mash it worked surprisingly
I mean, for Spartacus you can just use Diarmuid. His NP is quick and removes buffs anyway, so I just gave him an event CE, hooked him up with a Waver and a healer, and let him go nuts. It was pretty easy 😂✌️
Yeaaaa lmao I’m not even going to worry about these. I’ve done the ones from last year yesterday ima let these rock 😂😂
Irisviel is so useful but I have nobody that has her as support on my friend list :(
I splattered Spartacus’s brains with Maid and then had her clean up the mess lol
Explain the strategy please I was thinking of using her too
@@mister2115 I gave her the dmg CE and ran Mash and a support Merlin. Just defensed up so she wouldn't die. And used Mashed Target lock to keep him away. Her NP would one shot every time
Oni: or is named Gilgamesh is going to fuck her up.
me: ok let's do this Gil (caster).
Thanks for the guide (i need it more this year that last year) and i going to post and update how i did it: (UPDATE 12-09-2019)
1)Sparty: Melt, Jacky and Mash did almost all the job, Melt especially dance for days, is always fun to use a Quick team and i could have used my 10/10/10 Euryale but that would be too easy
2)Fox JK: Kuro and Robin erased firts bar, second bar erased by Okita and in the third one Ushi and Okita gave so many deffu that was crazy, i though that would be more hard but i had really lucky with facecard and the taunt of Suzuka
3)STELLA!: I wanted to do it with a Leonidas, Tamamo, Mashu setup but i fail like 3 times so i said hell and put Iri, turned out that Leonidas, Tamamo, Iri was more fun, guts for days, Tamamo and Iri didn't die with 1000HP because Leonidas always tank the attacks
4)Indian Brothers: i didn't want to do this one but well i wanted the ticket, after some fails and help i win it, though the RNG of Arjuna NP wasn't fun
5)Da Vinchi stop using Invincible Pierce PLEASE: honestly this was a fun one, after read all i tried with a Kuro, Tamamo, Waver setup and was really close but i always was dead by the Boar, them i change because using Jeanne is better and hell, a BB, Tamamo, Jeanne Setup was just that i need it, though it was a really pain in the ass when the AOE enemies came
6)Grand Assassin: I just try like 5 times and the last 2 the last day, i really thought i wouldn't beat him but my Iri, Tamamo and Merlin team was really lucky and KH didn't insta death one with his attacks so i resist a lot of turn plus Medea Lily help, went Xuanzang came she erase firts bar like nothing AND AFTER SOME SHIT WITH THE EVADE I COULD FINISH HIM WITH BEST GIRL XUANZANG I FUCKING LOVE YOU BABE SHOWING UP WHY YOU ARE LV100 BONDLV10 FUCKING YEAHHHHHHH!
7)Emperor Bloomer: Everyone was right this was a lot easy that i though Kiyohime, Mash, Waver did all the work, though i had to try like 5 times because when Cu was alive with Nero, he was a pain in the ass so after some good cards Kiyo erase firts groud minus Medea, later Medea Lily is out and i keep alive to another Kiyo NP to erase second groud, at last Nero was alone and i had my revenge
PD: For the fun of it i tried to do Suzuka CQ with a Okita solo and reddit was right she can do it herself, poor Suzuka
7 is easier than 5 and 6 by a long shot trust me.
@@zero20ab You was right
3 command spells gone and da vinci is still not dead 😔
On sparty I just used mash waver and meltlilit. Melt is good at spamming the hell out of her np so I just kept removing his heals as well as getting his healing down each turn. The recast of the heal is important as it takes away an action from sparty
I love challenge quests. I liked Spartacus battle and I enjoyed Suzuka despite the RNG.
Arash, however, is a right bastard.
EDIT: Also, a question. Would Gramps be a viable DPS against King Hassan?
He should work assuming his passive protects him from instant death
For the king hassan fight we could use King hassan in front line because he have immunity to insta death
The spartacus one i actually used summer artoria to finish the quest within 8 turns I just didnt want to deal with a long battle in that since on jp i snailed that battle because i liked being that guy
Something to note about KH Quest is that the taunt only applies to his FIRST attack per turn, and his next one can target anyone (also, don't be a dumbass and accidentally remove the taunt debuff on his NP turn because then he'll hit anyone).
Also, no guide to the unnerfed version of last year's finale? IIRC that was released as well.
@@leroyjenkins2030 It is part 1 of the challenge quests guide
I tried suzuka(no prep) and made it to her final bar, but it caught me off guard and I got wiped. Watched this video immediately after lol. I'll try again tomorrow.
Just do Okita solo with mystic code: Chaldea (heal atk up and evade) MLB event CE, NP1 is enough only first skill should be lvl10
Shoutout to sober oni for this guide
Just done with Spartacus last night. Spartacus didn't even managed to dent the Regenerating Shield Wall of Death.
My lineup from that fight is Mash on 2030, Gramps on mlb Goddess Ce, and a Merlin support.
What about the very last one?... you know, THAT one.
-Regarding King Hassan challenge -
It's purely RNG based........
Me: FUCK!
Got Spartacus down with Jalter 😂
My lord...
I managed to beat King Hassan with a Herc, Iri, Waver and Merlin. However that taunt bug is seriously infuriating, I do not recommend doing it until last if your that desperate for summon tickets.
It's odd. On jp release, I tried using King Hassan to survive King Hassan's insta-kill (pun intended), but then King Hassan started targeting randomly AGAIN like last year instead of targeting only King Hassan. King Hassan did this for a few runs. Then when I removed King Hassan from my party line up and used someone other than King Hassan, King Hassan started targeting the first servant only. I don't get it, but thank god we have skadi this time around with her "insta-kill immunity" np to weather that regardless.
What are your thoughts on using BB for the Da Vinci fight?
She works well too, a much better defensive option to using a berserker or avenger. The debuff removal is great too
Ah, that feeling when you don’t have Iri cuz you started the game after the f/z event... time to borrow my friend’s max bond herc and have summer umu give him his first guts, I guess
divine you say? just let martha punch her with that sweet 3rd skill.
Okita can solo both Spartacus and Suzuka challenge quest
is there a guide for the last cq? the Revival Grand Finale: prototype? Recommended level EX
The strategy doesn't change as far as I know, just the same fight but the servants have more HP
G&A Reviews thanks!
Hey man at 5:39 you say Archer instead of Lancer, just fyi
Otherwise thanks for the video!
You mean, "Saber", not "Lancer".
Just bring a Merlin, that is all.
Finished all the them except the King Hassan and Da Vinci quest, 12 out of 14 ain't bad I guess.
Pretty good overall, nicely done
@@GAReviews Thanks your guides where very insightful in tackling these CQ's.
I gave up on king Hassan. That’s too rage inducing.
Waver, Kscope Sherlock, Holy Night Supper Raikou = Easy mode. But no for real these were really fun.
You lied about the targeting from King Hassan! He targeted and killed my support Merlin in the middle!
Not a lie lol, the quest is bugged. For whatever reason it was changed or glitched out in NA compared to JP.
G&A Reviews Damn! That’s nutty, intentional or not. Looks like I’ll be skipping this quest.
I have to ask. Is this a good team comp? J'alter, Tamamo Caster, Nero Bride?
I'd suggest swapping Tamamo out for Waver, Merlin, or Hans. Tamamo is great but she doesn't work ideally with Jalter due to her being arts focused and Jalter being buster heavy
@@GAReviews how bout a sub for jalter? Thanks
@@FGBunag If you swap out Jalter, Caster Gil would be perfect in that spot for supporting Nero and if you don't have him you can pick him up with the free 4* ticket next week
Or is named gilgamesh is going to fuck her up hahah love that line
Lol he never mentioned using robin against the 1st two phases but heavily rng against suzuka
I came, i saw, I got reckt, and then I limit broke "Divine three-legged race" card and then I RECKT!!!!!!!
So can king Hassan survive a np from himself?
theyoungjmoney1 I wonder too. He has Death Immunity so I guess so
We'll find out lol
G&A Reviews are you going try it on stream oni if so I can’t wait 😎😎
Can Holmes peirce hassan defense?
as well as debuff immune agaisnt davinci battle?
King hassan's defence buffs are damage reduction buffs so Sherlock's def pierce doesn't work
Karna and Arjuna, Used Musashi.... Musashi win... me: WHAAAAT???, you NEVER PLAYED TUBER SIMUTOR??
And then there is this new version where he Attacks who he wants, when he wants XD fml this was brutal ...
BUT Nero Caster is a way to go - her NP Ignores his evade
So king Hassan’s quest came out today...
I placed my king Hassan in front of my team for death immunity...
And challenge quest king Hassan applied taunt on my Merlin all the way behind
He targets whoever he wants
This just became more RNG based
What about the super ultra dificulty og nero that just came out an hour ago?
Same as the normal one just double HP on all the enemies, all the same gimmicks still apply.
Oh boi! I'm glade I can just pound Shuzuka with ruler Martha.
Can you help me with a team comp? Got the following
5* SSR's
Jeanne D'Arc Alter (Avenger)
SummerTamamo no mae (Lancer)
Tamamo no mae (Caster)
Arturia Pendragon (Saber)
Nero Bride (Saber)
4* SR's
Summer Ishtar(Rider)
Summer Marie Antoinette(Caster)
Summer Nitocris(Assassin)
Summer Scáthach (Assassin)
Carmilla (Assassin)
Stheno (Assassin)
Berseker of El Dorado (Berseker)
Thanks a lot! Loved your vids a ton.
Tamamo, Nero Bride, and Mash is a pretty strong stall team that'll work for most of the challenge quests. You can also go for Jeanne Alter, Berserker of El DOrado, and a support Merlin if you want more firepower for the situations where you need to kill someone fast
I didn’t pass two nero quests and hassan and davinci
took spartacus out using kintoki rider, kintoki is perfect againts him my team comp was george, mhx alter(support build) kintoki, kotaro fuuma,alexander and support mash took only 3 turns, kintoki can np spam because he will crit alot 3 times np and evetything is history lol
Doesn't Hassan now target randomly? I thought the devs fixed that bug.
Unfortunately he does target randomly now, doesn't look like they plan to fix it
@@GAReviews *cries*
Looking at the majority of the challenge events, my np5 10/10/10 level 100 Tamamo lancer is laughing. (too bad I'm only farming petals)
So First Hassan now targets at RANDOM, including the targeting at the start of each round. It's pretty much impossible now.
You can still do it. It only gonna cost you a Merlin, Waver, another high quality dps and your sanity.
I should amend that to say it's pretty much impossible to do it legit. I just finished it with a LOT of save scumming to get around the RNG.
Other than Arash, all I can say is screw all that, I could use the tickets but this ain't feasible.
I brought wu to Spartacus, cause i wanted to buff kintoki rider and she worked fine
Who should i pick for my free ss sarvent 10 million download event.
Gorgon or artoria altar lancer but i do prefer artoria.
Best choice is Artoria between those 2, she's a top tier lancer. Gorgon's damage and utility is kinda subpar
@@GAReviews thanks a million man👌👌👌.
Ok, I'm gonna get my Lv1 Arash, give him Necromancy and try to solo the 5m Hp Arash.
Wish me luck, cuz I'll need it.
Update: My boi didn't survive, but my Mash guts for 8 times, what the hell?
