#videos always look easier complete the CQ

[fgodestinyawakenings]

Gameplay first:

Finished the whole main quest, so the grail goes firstly towards Quetz onee-san! XD Will definitely raised her to 90 for all EXTRA 4* classes!

Sieg-kun’s bond level up and as such, he blessed me with his 2 SQs!

Ou-sama... Yeah, it’d be more perfect that he’s grailed to 100. But he isn’t my #1 husband... At least I’ll do it for his stats! Next one is without a doubt, my baby Herc-chan!

Tamamo Cat unlocked her new interlude, so will work on it when dead week comes!

Jeanne Alter finally ready, except her skills, to start roasting people alive at LB4!

Now, Challenge quest:

My set up: Okita Alter, Quetz-chan, Ishtar & Herc-chan as DPS, support Merlin and taunter George

Not the best setup because of the gimmicks for this entire fight

『Diary of Murasaki Shikibu』 (the grimore at the back) permanent buff

Trigger Upon Defeated: 

Grants Murasaki Shikibu Pierce Invincibility (1 turn) & Attack Damage Up (1 turn) and then debuff all front-line party members with "Inflict Star Generation Rate Down (1 turn) upon self at the end of every turn for 1 turn" [Permanent, Unremovable]

Heals Murasaki Shikibu by 15,000 HP at the end of every turn, as long as this unit is on the battlefield.

Delayed Invocation: After 4 turns, inflict Stun status on a target front-line party member that lasts for 3 turns + Inflict Instant Death to this unit [Demerit] [4 turns, Unremovable]

Genji Monogatari (the grimorie at the front): 

When defeated, grants Murasaki Shikibu 3 ticks of NP charge, and then debuff all Female front-line party members with "Inflict Charm status upon self at the end of every turn for 1 turn" [Permanent, Unremovable]

Grants Murasaki Shikibu Damage Resistance Up against all types of attacks, as long as this unit is on the battlefield. [Permanent, Unremovable]

Delayed Invocation: After 4 turns, inflict Buff Nullification on a target front-line party member that lasts for 3 turns + Inflict Instant Death to this unit [Demerit] [4 turns, Unremovable]

Murasaki herself:

Upon HP break:  Increases the healing received by 100%

This is from my fight and some videos, Murasaki will always resummoned the Genji Monogatari mob after HP break at certain level 

Some fights depend on your luck, Genji Monogatari may or may not always summoned Diary of Murasaki Shikibu after being summoned

Also do AVOID bringing Demonic Servants as her skillset and NP deals higher damage against them

The fight will nevertheless end when you defeat Murasaki herself, even if her two books are alive!

Whole CQ basically summarized start nuking all of them ASAP, which majority were able to went for 2 or 3 turn killing because of the gimmicks above

I tried for that but ain’t working well for my end. Okita Alter’s AOE NP cleared the books ONLY and doesn’t give a single scratch to Murasaki thanks to that permanent buff from genji monogatari

That buff of damage resistance made her receive 0 damage

And Quetz is unfortunately not able to kill her ASAP once the books are gone...

Plus my horrible luck still remains because after HP break, she summon genji monogatari which summoned back diary of murasaki 3 times!! OTL

Okita Alter and Merlin died expectedly, but thank god to George and Quetz-chan guts in keeping them alive along with Merlin’s NP buff

But mostly... THANK FUCKING GOD FOR QUETZ-CHAN BUSTER CRIT THAT KILLED HER AT THE END! OTL

Servants to bring for this fight:

Arash

The infamous suicide NP of his is most recommended in every video I’ve seen

The ideal one to clear the two books before letting your 2 Rider Servants on field with their NP to immediately go for HP break

Also helps in bringing out your support/next DPS Servant after his death

AOE Riders/Alter Egos/AOE Berseker

Budget Riders: Edward, Alexandar, Columbus, Medusa, Red Hare, Ishtar Rider

Can be put as second alternative to clear the books when Murasaki resummoned them at some point in the fight

Medusa’s first skill & Alexandar’s second skill helps to stall time for your team if needed 

Columbus & Red Hare for Ignore Invincibility skill but not really needed in the fight because of the damage resistance gimmicks and her skillset

AOE Alter Ego: Kiara & Okita Alter

After using Okita Alter... They are welcome as alternative if you don’t have good AOE Riders

But note when to defeat the 2 books, as defeating them right when her NP charge is buffing her with ignore invincibility AOE attack... Which their own skill set defense won’t be able to save them if it happens

As they received neutral damage instead, they’ll die quicker if crit fest happens

AOE Berserker: Spartacus, Darius III, Eric BloodAxe, Paul Bunyan, Chacha, Kiyohime

While they do help greatly with their 1.5x damage, you’ll need to set up a team to keep them alive as they receive the same 1.5x damage

ST Riders/Alter Egos/Berserkers (soloing against Murasaki once her mobs are killed):

ST Riders: Ushiwakamaru, Ryoma & Oryo, Sakata Kintoki, George (Yes she is a dragon, George!)

ST Alter Ego: Meltlilith, Passionlip, Mecha Eli-chan (preferably the last one if you got her from last year Halloween rerun)

ST Berserkers: Lu Bu, Jeanne Alter

By trait:

Female: Jack & Carmilla (which definitely not recommend with 3 Caster enemy killing them ASAP)

Humanoid: Nightingale (Izou same reason as the above, but remember to find a setup to keep her alive if you want bed throwing nurse as DPS)

Weak to Enuma Elish (need I say who?)

Support/Taunter servants: Depend on which DPS setup you’re going for, but I prefer for stalling because mob 3 tick NP charge + Murasaki’s NP charge will make her spam her NP more frequently

CEs:

Origin Bullet: Equip on your DPS to deal higher damage on her

500 years dedication: For taunters mostly to stall her from NP spamming

Starting NP CEs: To start your engine early in killing the books and her with NP ASAP!

Despite the above... I’m still not fucking done with point ladder. I got another 1 million point to go... So back to grinding hell!
