I don't often do this kind of thing, but I actually quite like dream eater on Lilligant. Helps it set up easier by providing damage and recovery provided you're running sleep powder.

Venusaur has actually been replaced with Meganium, so you can't get that back either. The best Grass/Poison types in the game at the moment are Roserade and Vileplume, though if you don't mind just Grass then Gogoat is a boss.

Which would actually make his mana draw very manageable even under mad enhancement. With mad enhancement active his strength and endurance would both be boosted to a little higher than A rank, while his agility would be sitting at a solid B. Though in reality they're C+ and D+. That's... kind of cool actually.

You went the wrong way in Tanzan Mountain. Instead of going to the old meteor base, go left (towards Aventurine) and just before leaving the mountain go through the cave entrance of your right.

Please don't double post.

So apparently your initial reaction created a maelstrom of ship destruction.

Hukuna, for a guide as to how to create a Berserker class servant, just make them like you would for any other class. Distribute their base parameters according to their legend and skill, and then they will get a buff when mad enhancement is activated. That's what made Heracles and Lancelot such terrifying characters, their stats were already stupid high to begin with, and mad enhancement sent them higher. Oh also, I'm glad my guide helped. As for me... I think I'll join this one, but if possible could we delay it a couple of weeks so that I can get out of exam period? I was talking to Notus, and he said that he might be able to do it if we wait a bit as well. As for my servant, if Hukuna's set on using Berserker then I have a very good candidate for Archer, but they might be a bit too strong for the competition. I promise, it's not Gilgamesh.

Hah, you're right, it was. Thank you very much though, hopefully this helps. Oh, and if you see anything in there that needs clarification or isn't explained clearly, feel free to let me know.

You're going the wrong way. You can't access the key from the wasteland, instead you need to go to Tanzan Mountain, and go in the cave that Saphira comes out of after the section in the meteor base there.

B2W2 Female Clerk 'cause reasons... DPPt Bug Catcher 'cause I like the bug type. HGSS Ethan 'cause I played a lot of gen 2 back in the day. Gen 2 was my gen. DPPt Ruin Maniac 'cause Straya. BW Hilbert 'cause he looks half like me when I was younger.

Well... I offered, you guys said you wanted it, and now I'm here to deliver. Be warned though, it's a lot to read, and a lot to take in at once. Sheep's guide to the magic system of the Fate series. A few things to clarify before we start: Magic is different to magecraft. Another name for magecraft is thaumaturgy, and I will be calling it that for the rest of this description so as to not confuse anyone. Magi (singular magus, possessive magi's? Magus'? I dunno, which sounds better?) are practitioners of thaumaturgy. Magicians are practitioners of magic. Prana, Mana, and Od: Magic Circuits: Magic Crests: Thaumaturgy: Bounded Fields: Magic: Summoning and maintaining a Servant: Command Seals: A note on the servant Caster: Finally, a couple of things to consider. Magic is generally a secret kept from everyone. If someone witnesses a battle between servants, that person needs to die. Also, servants have two forms, their physical form and their spirit form. The spirit form is invisible and incorporeal, but they can still communicate and have full access to their senses. It is easier on the prana though, and convenient when not in combat situations. Alright. That was a lot of work, but I hope it clears some stuff (or a lot of stuff) up, and teaches you some important information (and lots more besides). If anyone still has any questions, feel free to ask. Edit: As if it was possible I forgot something. I was going to include the ritual for summoning a servant, but I guess I'll put it down here instead.

I do agree with that. I'm open to that. If you want me to critique them then I'd be happy to. Now, I've just got an exam out of the way, so what better way to wind down than to throw myself headfirst into the confusing world of the Nasuverse in an attempt to make heads or tails of this magic system? I already know a lot of the basics, but I'm gonna have a read over the material first to make sure I don't miss anything out.

I believe I'm qualified (by virtue of nothing more than being a member of the community) to say on behalf of the community at large, you're very welcome. Stay happy.

Yes.

Depends on the nature of the familiar, and in particular how strong it is. Ordinary mages can't really summon any sort of familiar that might be dangerous without extreme difficulty, so if this thing is something to be feared it would make a fine personal skill imo. Bit weird for a Rider to have it, but that's what you get when mixing predetermined classes with individual histories.

Um welcome? I'm... confused. So uh, make sure to ask me any questions you might have about this place. Yeah.

Honestly I haven't seen much interest in Saber thus far. The most promising ones for me at the moment are Archer and Berserker, assuming Rider is taken (which is fine, the same servant can fit into archer).

It's plausible that the gym leader that betrays you (as much as I hate the thought of it) is Shelly. We know something is going down with Heather, and when given an ultimatum between Heather's life or her continued loyalty to us it wouldn't surprise me to see her betray us. Reluctantly of course.

You're gonna have to be more specific. :feelsgd: But seriously, I'm assuming you mean Fate/Zero's Lancer. Personally I prefer Lancer from Fate/Stay Night, but I don't think there should be any rule against reusing characters. Aaaaand ninja'd.

To paraphrase what is being said in the paragraph Tengo quoted, modern heroes don't exist because modern technology makes it too easy to achieve grand feats. Essentially what it is saying is even the most unlikely of events now won't match the deeds that the heroic spirits of old supposedly performed when you take away the advantage of technology from each, and look at what was achieved solely through the individual. With the Red Baron, I don't really know if he'd qualify or not (assuming we put the recent nature of his actions aside), this is mainly because his track record, while very impressive, isn't really comparable to some of the other heroes. He had the advantage (or disadvantage) of being born into a time in which being the best may simply be because you've practiced the most. In the days when the heroic spirits were doing their thing, to be the best you had to be born special, as evidenced by the myriad of demigods roaming around the place. All of that is seemingly unimportant when we look at the fact that unless he made a deal with the world and became a counter guardian, he's not eligible due to being too recent. What's a counter guardian? That's... honestly really complicated and I'd prefer to avoid the topic if possible.

Baa. Hilda.

It's a very nice offer, and you're correct that is what he needs to do now, but please refrain from double posting.

Uh, if you've beaten Dr Connel's lab then you should already have battled Shelly. The next leader for you is Shade. It's weird that Shelly is still around though, I thought they all go down to the Railnet after that. Try heading down to the Railnet, you'll need rock smash.

#Victory. How'd you like getting roleblocked every week Rose? You can thank me for that one.
