Hunting Quests Part XII (US)

FGO NA - Hunting Quests XII - Day 7: Cerberus Hunt (3T farming - 6 slot comp)YouTube

Once again, ALL the comps showed in this video are BETTER than the standard buster looping comps for Melusine & Caster Cu (either frontline only or no double support required).

For berseker nodes many options are available and since damage is usually not a problem, we only need to concern ourselves with having enough NP charge: in particular, the requirements to kill with NP only for this node can be somewhat overlooked, since any card after NP will deal full class advantage to finish the job (still, I won’t include any crit comp in my video).

The MVP this time is Koyan Dark: she has by far the best damage in wave 3, all while supporting other DPS with charge and damage buffs. She also has good synergy with the Melusine who is the runner up for this node: given that she has the biggest self NP charge (30% + 100%), she can work in many different teams depending on your support availability.

Other strong AoE DPS with special damage in wave 3 are: Eresh for Buster (worse than Koyan in almost every way this time), Summer Kiara & Murasaki for Arts (NP1 Kiara beats NP3 Murasaki to give you the idea), the Rats & Taigong for Quick (yep, we can farm with Skadi).

For secondary DPS that take care of wave 1-2, aside the usual Oberon (who needs extra NP levels!), I feel the crown can be give to either Medb or Arash: the first one works perfectly with Melusine (in a similar way to Koyan Dark), while the second one is generically splashable in any team to clear wave 1 “with no cost”.

Of course, all the usual ST DPS with big self NP charge are useful here: Sanzang has the best damage & party buffs, but if you can spare the extra help than you can use Faker or Circe for lower party cost.

Finally, Voyager has special damage in wave 1-2 and while he can’t provide any buff to the primary DPS (aside one-time Quick down), he can give more NP charge than any other secondary DPS (if you use his NP two times).

IMPORTANT NOTES:

- 1) These Hunting Quests give higher Bond Points than usual, so using your Teapods is advised

- 2) Hunting Quests use Event supports, so be a good friend and setup your supports with Bond/QP bonus CEs or with the corresponding Materials Drop Bonus CEs

FGO NA - Hunting Quests XII - Day 6: Soul Eater Hunt (3T farming - 6 slot comp)YouTube

ALL the comps showed in this video are BETTER than the standard Melusine buster looping comp (either frontline only, no double support or lower party cost): I just had to put this out of the way from the beginning, since I don’t like brainless buster farming.

With that said, Melusine is still the MVP for this node, mainly for her ability to swap between ST and AoE NP, on top of her absurd charge skills (yeah, both of them). Don’t sleep on Eresh though, since she has the best damage in wave 3 and so she pairs perfectly with Melusine. Lartoria, Morgan and Romulus can work too, but you must have given them a lot of love (NP levels &/or grails).

Among Arts lancers, Percival is definitely the winner this time, given his lower cost, high damage & amazing refund: you can see that I checked for both Ryoma and Vritra but I didn’t give numbers for summer Melt, mainly because her damage is extremely low in wave 3 and she doesn’t work very well in multi-core (she can still work though, at very high NP levels). Fionn who?

For secondary DPS, once again Oberon is the best choice (frontline only comps), but you’ll need at least one NP2 copy to farm consistently (yours or from supports). Faker can use her NP two times to help with damage in wave 3, while LoliVinci & Abigail can clear room 1 and help the primary DPS with both damage & refund.

PS: Karna’s sad tale at 06:33 match the previous Arjuna’s sad tale from yesterday (25% NP charge skill perks).

EDIT: jokes aside Fionn can loop too with double Castoria & Oberon, he just need his append unlocked (unlike Percival) and Castoria NP to help him with damage.

FGO NA – Hunting Quests XII- Day 5: Kelpie Hunt (3T farming - 6 slot comp)YouTube

With the Archer class having so many units with 30% charge, the MVP for this node goes to Oberon who can enable frontline only comps in which he functions as DPS. There is a caveat though: you (or your friends) must have a beefy copy of Oberon, with at least NP2 if you also have Douman and up to NP5 if you want to use him to clear wave 2 while saving your MC buffs.

If you can’t use frontline only comps, then Arash is your next best friend (you maxed his append right?): he can both clear wave 1 if you want to avoid using plugsuit or function as a nuke in wave 3 (so much that there is no reason to use other 30% charge Archer with higher party cost and lower damage).

Regarding other useful DPS:

- Douman or Nito can insta-kill both wave 1 & 2, the choice resting on your needs (damage support or lower party cost respectively)

- Koyan Dark can clear wave 1 while buffing & charging your Arash to enable his powerful overcharge effect (keep in mind though that she needs at least NP2 to be reliable in 6 slot comps, even with her special damage)

- Summer Kiara is the strongest Arts option for wave 3: thanks to her sick combo with Douman she will vastly outdamage all AoE Arts archers like Jeanne or Zenobia (seriously give Jeanne archer an NP rank up for the love of God, also make her set her own water field with said NP)

PS: I can’t show “Buster looping comps” with double Koyan plus Nito/Douman (insta-kill one wave), since I lack AoE Buster Archers with 50% charge (Ishtar, Tesla, Tametomo). In any case, these comps are only better than the pure Arts looping comps at the end of this video (Jeanne Archer & Zenobia), purely because you can use Nito for lower party cost, and you don’t need to sit through an extra NP animation (Castoria).

FGO NA – Hunting Quests XII- Day 4: Garuda Hunt (3T farming - 6 slot comp)YouTube

Caster nodes are the second easiest to farm right after assassin nodes, given how many good Riders we have at our disposal (both premium and free options): for this particular node Taigong is the MVP meeting all the damage checks for boss in wave 3 (both divine & demonic), on top of being fantastic unit in multi-core farming that can give buffs & NP charge to the rest of the team (while having easy access to his own NP).

He is followed closely by Habetrot that can literally function in any capacity here: she can clear wave 1 and then swap out, clear both wave 1 & 2 and then swap out, clear wave 1 & 3, clear all three waves.

Regarding other useful DPS:

- Faker can NP two times thanks to her NP charge, shaving HPs off one mob in wave 3 (usually the middle mob if using Taigong for wave 3, since he already obliterates the boss)

- Douman can insta-kill wave 1 while buffing the team, in particular Drake meets all the checks and she is the easiest AoE Buster Rider to use with Oberon for this node

- Ozy as usual is a good option for wave 2 both buffing & charging the team, with Ryoma as downgrade (for non-Arts DPS at least) and Medb as a better sidegrade for fairy & male allies (with both Habetrot & Taigong qualifying!)

- Nemo can give incredible buffs to the team since he is on water field, but sadly he lacks the NP charge support that the previous units can provide to be competitive (at least when it comes to 6 slot comps, where NP charge is more vital than damage buffs)

FGO NA – Hunting Quests XII- Day 3: Merman Hunt (3T farming - 6 slot comp)YouTube

Assassin nodes are usually the easiest to farm, since we have such good DPS for both AoE & ST needs: Gong is the best option here, beating Caster Cu cleanly since he needs double Koyan & Oberon to guarantee the kill in wave 3 (RNG is quite big with only single Koyan & Oberon, so even if it’s the cheapest team I don’t really recommend it).

Dark horses are the Rats and Murasaki for their special damage: they have the easiest time clearing wave 3 and they are both excellent loopers (we can farm bond with Skadi again guys!).

For secondary DPS, Douman once again can insta-kill two waves (Nito can’t without overcharge) and buff the primary DPS, while Sanzang can at least take care of wave 2 while helping with looping & damage (Circe can work, but she is strictly worse).

FGO NA – Hunting Quests XII- Day 2: Wyvern Hunt (3T farming - 6 slot comp)YouTube

You realize something is amiss with the assassin class when your strongest DPS for this node is Siegfried… That 0.9 atk modifier is really a pain and in general the assassin class has very few (decent) AoE looping options.

The most difficult day to 6 slot without card RNG if your main Assassin/Berserker DPS is only NP1: we usually require NP2, lv100 Foumes CEs and lv10 new Plugsuit to guarantee the kill with NP only.

The only exception would be having Douman (work with Koyan with both at NP1), but alas he evaded me so far, so I had to bring Crane to (basically) guarantee the kill, but with a much higher party cost.

PS: Arash is an option to clear room 1 (especially if you invested in him with grails), but he doesn’t buff your main DPS in any way, on the contrary he needs buffs to kill, so your main DPS needs to be already NP2 or higher and at that point you can use one of the comps in the video without needing Arash (if you are sticking to 6 slot comps at least).

That NP2 Koyan was a nice investment lol, but guess I need more then that

Also yes, I am aware this isn't optimal, but had to see if it can work :P

FGO NA – Hunting Quest XII- Day 1: Skeleton Hunt (3T farming - 6 slot comp)YouTube

They always start Hunting Quests with bones, they know… Anyway, insta-kill is the best way to clear the first two waves of skeletons, leaving the third wave for your strongest AoE saber/berserker.

If you have a very beefy copy, Oberon is the optimal option to clear the third wave (6 CE slot comp without order change), but double check your minimum damage!

Buster AoE DPS are preferred for the third wave, since Koyan can give special damage against the Skeleton King and of course they benefit the most from Oberon: among the 50% charger that can loop with minimum support, I recommend Ibuki for her special damage against undead, OG Artoria for her raw damage (especially with Oberon) and Morgan for her super effective modifier against human attribute.
