Caster/Berserker Class Banner

I am contemplating rolling for the caster class banner that will be due in a few days. I have 1) Lancelot Saber, 2) Vlad III, 3) Artoria Archer NP2. Obviously my top target is tamacaster to complete the arts team. Was wondering if I should roll on the caster class banner or roll during halloween. Alternatively, during the new years guaranteed gacha.

I also have Heracles NP2 with maxed skills and would cu alter be worth going for?

About Caster :
The SSR ones are very good at what they do, Waver and Tama needs no explanation , Sanzang is a good caster damage dealer with a bit of support. SRs ones are kind of...meh , since Helena and Medea Lily are worse Zhuge and Tamamo, respectively. Nursery can be useful if you can feed her stars. The R ones are almost all trash , with the exception of Medea.

Berserkers :
None of them are really bad. Nightingale and Dog are both phenomenal at what the do. The SRs are a bit mixed :
- Lancelot and Tamacat are AOE farmers with notoriously slow NP gain but with some niches ( Lot : Critzerker , Cat : Tanky Zerk). Too bad they are powercreeped at those niches by Raikou and Banana
- Frankenstein. Zero survivablity, No crits ( Unless you slap a star absorb CE on her or something) but way better NP gain , partially thanks to Galvanism so better farming unit.
-Banana. Heracles w/o guts + DEF buff and Disengage. Good Quick and Extra also helps her charge her NP more quickly than Herc. Nothing to complain about.
-Beowulf : Often relegated to a budget
Zerkertoki
-Kiyo, Darius : Unsynergistic skillset. Perfectly usable as a farming tool tho.
- Lu Bu : Budget Herc w/o survivablity and barely any HP. His NP hurts tho.

Halloween : Cleopatra and Extra Vlad are both good servants. However you might wanna take a look at King Hassan first and considering which suits you better. Vlad skillset is simple but effective with an anti-Evil niche on his NP. He can also regenerate stars , heal , buff himself but none of them are very impressive .
So ,roll this banner if you think your luck is good enough to get gold servants or save until Halloween if you want Cleopatra and make a Chaldea Killing Game if you have Edmond ( Get it ?). Casters and Zerks are good banners with perfectly viable servants. The worst spook would be Edison and even then , he works wonder in a stall team and his OC up skill can help with Archuria NP refund.

Thanks for the reply! I was actually gonna roll for tamamo during halloween. I have no intention to roll for cleopatra or vlad. But I realised the caster gacha has a 0% chance of spooks with a chance to get tamamo, waver or sanzang if I get a 5*.
I have no lack of berserkers lol, I have raikou, vlad III and herc. I just like cu alter but was unsure if he and herc's roles would overlap.

If you have such many Berserkers, then many not rolling for them this time because the conflict for secret gem will be there and Wednesday farming for this secret gem is in a bad ADP.

Cu alter is more compatible with versatile teams since his evade is hit-based with 5 turn cool-down. A typically example is Raikou+Waver+Cu Alter, or generally DPS (advantage-class to boss) + support + Cu alter (good to slash out mobs of different classes). Also a durable berserker-team of Herc + Cu alter is not a bad idea.

In solo game Herc (typically with high bond CE) worked somehow better than Cu alter then it is quite decent to put him as last line of team, and it has lower cost than SRR servant+SSR CE, saving cost for your front line of three.

They won't quite overlap each other, not liking Artoria OG vs Saltoria or etc. But you have to consider which one for high-skill-upgraded if you posses so many Berserkers.

Good planning you have there mate, and yes Tamamo Will be at home in your team. But, One sekai no ichiban demigod is enough to bring down almost entire FGO solo dude, if you want to call for another one man army to your team Hercules would be jealous.

If you want Tamamo specifically, then Halloween rerun banner is better. Roll for Cu Alter if you want him. You don't need him, but you definitely won't suffer for having him.

You can roll the caster guaranteed gacha if you fail to get her in new years. Hell, even if you do get her, there's a 2/3 3 chance you'll get either Waver or Sanzang who are both good units in their own right and worth having anyway.

Thanks for replying! Why do you consider halloween to be better, given that there is a chance to be spooked by a non rate up 5 star unlike this banner, where waver is available as well
