@リース: Believe me, it isn't a total waste. You are right, Shielder can tank some damage from Ibaraki, but her NP can deal around 30k and 50k damage, while a full-round attack from Ibaraki can do... 20k? 30k? If we talk about absorbing damage, the most efficient move is to absorb the Noble Phantasm from the boss. Also, with his third skill Shielder will be alive and able to receive some more damage. What's more, if you are a little lucky you can chain his taunt/invincibility combo with a copule of Arts card so she can charge a good amount of his NP.

At least my Shielder survive one NP and two or three turns. But, of course, I have her with level 50 and almost full HP/ATK upgrade.

@Metlspaz: I see. So the quick boost give more damage. Maybe because Ushi's CE boost your ATK, so the buff is before the NP multiplier, while the Quick boost is to the card damage, so it's after the NP multiplier. Just a theory, but I think it can be the reason.

But like you said, there is still the RNG problem. The Quick boost only activate when the Servant die, and we usually aren't able to decide when happen that. Maybe our Servant die and our Jack/Scathach doesn't have NP ready or something like that. Too risky.

@SqueeSpleenAndSpoon: So... maybe that Royal Brand can be really useful in this event. Maybe I'll try it with the 3 BP boss, but damn... it's like a double-edge sword. I can boost my Servant NP, but I can't heal them or give them dodge. Need to think about it.
