Trying to 3 turn pages in Shinjuku. I can Arash the first one, Santa the second, but can't kill the last wave in 1 turn. I've tried Kintoki+my own Merlin, but he couldn't do 200k, only about 100k+. Any suggestions?
Default mystic code has the highest attack boost value. Might use that to further increase Kintoki's damage though ultimately, I'm not sure he can hit 200K (assuming this is Berserker Kintoki). Otherwise, use the combat uniform to switch out for a servant that can provide even more attack boosts like Nightingale, Shakespeare, Ushi, etc.
How about borrowing Scathach instead? Her NP damage far outpaces Kintoki although she has less buffs to eat. That said, she cannot be run as easily with Merlin nor does she have an NP boost - is Waver an option?
In general, if damage for a single turn is an issue, use Order Change and bring in another Servant to further buff your damage. You could also borrow another Memelin, and run a Lu Bu with Kscope.
Finally, the 2nd wave isn't that strong, an upgraded Atalante/Emiya (or Lancelot) can produce a lot of Stars while NP'ing (if you can hit that benchmark), and you can crit the Gazer too. Or you could swap in Mozart or use Alexander (his overcharge makes stars). A QQNP from Alexander produces a fair bit of stars.
Anyway, hopefully that gave you food for thought. The ideal solution would always be to make an guaranteed run as possible (not reliant on card draws). With both Merlin and Kintoki - you get the most bonus damage from NP Damage up (Drake? Caesar?) all buffs being equal value.
gazer are archer usually right? use a good st lancer buster.
if i am correct gazer are considered evil, so vlad extra is not bad, but i am personally able to do around 230k with my jaguar warrior np.
actually, with merlin, even a single buster card from my jaguar warrior or lalter will do the job (with crit around 220k damage full buffed by merlin..)
i guess the most important thing is, what ce do you have? are you forced to use the mage mystic code for the extra np battery?
becouse i am... and i have no kaleid
Borrow a brynhildr. She can burst using np and has better synergy with merlin. Go for either a chaldea combat for extra np charge if you need it or use the mc that gives buster up and stars if you dont need it.
Personally, I use a frontline of Scathach (support), Kiyohime (grailed to level 80 with 4/5/4 and np 5), and Waver (70, 1/1/1). The backline has Lancer Elisabeth (level 70, 6/6/4 with GUDAGUDA Poster girl equipped), Arash, and whatever servant I'm bonding. Kiyohime and Arash hold kaleidoscope of course, and Scathach has either kaleidoscope or Golden Sumo: Boulder Tournament. For this kind of set up, you use Merlin or Waver to buff up the frontline lancer, use the Chaldea combat uniform to switch him with Arash, and have Arash let loose (read:die). Having Elisabeth or whatever other buffer you use in the 4th slot will bring them forward, giving Kiyohime the damage to ensure the 2nd wave dies. Now... you just use everything, and don't forget the Buff All mystic code skill. With my own set up, the two defense downs, primordial rune buff, and approximately 70% attack buff is enough to outright kill the Gazer, or leave it easy pickings for Scathach, Kiyohime, and the 95% attack buffed Elisabeth. This kind of set up would also work well with Tamamo Lancer and Brynhild if you'll be using Merlin, but it could be hard to get a replacement for Elisabeth, especially if you don't have a Kiyohime up to par. One that comes to mind is Caesar, but you might be relying on your card draws in that case.
