· FGO is currently running the Spring New Master Support Campaign and the Water Crisis event simultaneously.
· As a result, a total of 7 limited gachas are open, and we're revealing our recommended ranking for Masters who are wondering which gacha to choose.
· This ranking is based on personal discretion and bias, prioritizing farming performance but also considering strengths in high-difficulty quests.

· Recently strengthened, adding missing abilities and improving usability.
· Skill Set: Reduces enemy party charge and applies defense debuff, chance to stun, self ATK buff, 50% NP charge, debuff cleanse, HP recovery, Arts buff, Critical Star generation.
· Noble Phantasm: Grants self Invincibility and greatly increases DEF while invincible, providing a countermeasure against Sure Hit attacks.

Pros	Cons
Strong short-battle performance Can counter Sure Hit attacks	Lack of content for short battles (e.g., Grail Front) High reliance on Arts Critical chains

· While his short-battle performance is excellent, content that utilizes it (e.g., Grail Front) doesn't appear frequently, making his recommendation low in the current meta.

· A unique Servant with all skills and Noble Phantasm strengthened, but her last strengthening was in 2019, making her quite lacking in the current meta.
· Skill Set: Reduces enemy party DEF, medium chance to stun after 1 turn, Invincibility, large Critical Star gain, Star generation buff for Sabers, Saber Special Attack, ATK buff.
· Noble Phantasm: An Altria-face Special Attack NP, powerful against specific enemies, but her skill performance is outdated.

Pros	Cons
High potential of Altria-face Special Attack NP	Lack of NP Charge skill Low buff values (20% ATK buff) Debuffs can be resisted

· Lacks an NP Charge skill, making her inconvenient to use, and her buff values are low, reducing her competitiveness compared to current powerful Servants.

· Received 1 Noble Phantasm strengthening and 2 skill strengthenings.
· Skill Set: Most skill effects last for 1 turn, lacking sustained strengths. Possesses two types of Critical buffs.
· Noble Phantasm: Inflicts multiple debuffs, and her follow-up Critical damage is very high during an NP Brave Chain.

Pros	Cons
High card performance and NP Brave Chain damage Can charge 30% NP	Most skills are 1-turn effects Critical operation heavily relies on card luck Farming performance is somewhat lacking

· Can charge 30% NP, placing her higher than Mysterious Heroine X, but her Critical operation heavily relies on card luck, reducing stability.

· A Saber capable of 30% NP charge, with superior support abilities compared to Okita Souji, personally rated as having better usability.
· Skill Set: Superior support abilities compared to Okita Souji.
· Noble Phantasm: Has an HP recovery effect, making her suitable as an attacker in Arts stall teams.

Pros	Cons
Can charge 30% NP Excellent support abilities NP's HP recovery effect contributes to Arts stall teams	Not outstanding in terms of attack power Stall strategies are not frequently used in the current meta

· While not overwhelmingly powerful in terms of damage, her support abilities make her suitable for handling mid-battle enemies in irregular compositions.

· Skill Set: Arts buff, Evade, NP buff, high chance to Charm all enemies, 50% NP charge, grants 'Love' status on normal attacks and 'Love' Special Attack buff based on the number of 'Love' stacks.
· Noble Phantasm: A Charm Special Attack NP, boasting high looping potential, allowing for NP system operation.

Pros	Cons
Easy Arts system operation with 50% NP charge Can utilize Special Attack NP with self-inflicted Charm Coincides with Castoria gacha for synergy	Unstable Charm success rate (lack of success rate buff) As an Avenger class, struggles to gain class advantage

· Her 50% NP charge makes her very user-friendly, and her gacha running alongside Castoria's is advantageous for Arts system operation. However, the unstable Charm success rate is a drawback.

· 1st and 2nd place can vary depending on the Master's Servant roster.

Situation	1st Place Servant	2nd Place Servant	Main Recommendation Reason
If neither are owned	Castoria	Morgan	· Castoria: An indispensable supporter for future high-difficulty quests due to her unparalleled Noble Phantasm performance. NP1 provides sufficient support. · Morgan: Powerful with her Humanoid Special Attack NP, 50% NP charge, and party-wide buffs, but NP1 damage might be insufficient, so Castoria takes priority.
Considering Noble Phantasm level-up for owned Servants	Morgan	Castoria	· Morgan: For offensive Noble Phantasms, the damage increase efficiency is best when upgrading from NP1 to NP2, contributing to maximized farming performance. · Castoria: NP1 can provide 30% ATK buff support. Achieving NP2 greatly improves stability against NP drain skills by increasing the NP gauge cap to 200%.

· Importance of Castoria's NP Level-up: NP1 can only charge up to 100% NP, making her vulnerable to NP drain skills, but NP2 can charge up to 200% NP, allowing for stable Noble Phantasm usage. This is crucial for maximizing Castoria's defensive advantages in high-difficulty quests.
