Well, if you really want to beat the story before the event, your best bet is a team composed of Jeanne Alter (or any super high output dps, such as MHXA or any zerker, but with an inmortality buff, or evasion if there's nothign else), Mashu with all skills at lvl 10, and a support Merlin with all skills at lvl 10 (or at least at lvl 6). With a team like this, all the story is pretty much feaseable, however, you will have a hard time with Goetia, since he NPs on the first turn and has ignore deffense and invulnerability pierce buffs, plus NP and crit resistance (a NP won't do above 100 dmg to him, same for cit).

Besides him, there's nothing really difficult, though Lobo is a pain in Shinjuku, but with the above strat it should be easy to beat him as well as the final boss, but you have to take note of Lobo's NPs, since they can instakill a servant.

In terms of apples, you might need to use around 8 or 10, depends on your level.
