A few things to consider: 1. DoT is not as good as it might sound, since he likes to spam Disengage and just remove them immediately. 2. I wouldn't recommend using Shuten here. I tried it myself and got a painful reminder that she's the daughter of a dragon. Siegfried used his Dragonslayer skill and focused her down, I'm pretty sure his AI prioritises dragon trait servants. 3. Jeanne is amazing in this fight. I cleared the two wyverns with Emiya and then switched him out for Shiki. My team here was Jeanne, Tamamo, Shiki. Siegfried never got to hit anyone with his NP and went down to Shiki after two of her's. This one was by far the easiest of the battles thus far in my opinion. Shiki hard-counters Medb as well, but Medb quest has a few more problematic elements after you kill the queen. -Now I'm not really sure if I am looking forward to the Gil battle tomorrow, or ready to shit my pants-
Curse damage was *super* helpful for me! Credit where credit is due, thanks for the idea. Managed to do it with Mash, Shiki, support Waver, with Liz and Arash (lol) as backup. Mash and Liz had on the 500 Years Obsession CE, and I just used Arash to help murder the dragons on the third wave. Was really happy I could do this with a reasonably F2P team, since I don't have many def ignore NP servants. Granted I did get lucky with all the curse damage going on Siegfried, but isn't that always what it takes? With this fight finally done, my Nero fest is over! Thanks again!!
Congrats! A bit of luck always helps for sure. He has a skill to clear debuffs, so depending on the timing it might mess up curse damage strategies. I'm glad you made it through!
I've gone in blind on mostly all of the challenges so far and had some lovely defeats on the first 2 runs and then usually had a good enough team comp to finish on the second. The second act was a 1 try though, mostly because I have too many sabers :(
Lol, nothing wrong with too many Sabers. I have a bunch (Altria, Altera, Mordred, Okita, and Bride Nero) but I'm missing Saber Shiki who I really wanted to try out there.
I started playing the game right before the summer event came out, so im pretty much ignoring these matches lol. I dont have pretty much any of these servants except the 3 star or lower ones, and I havent bothered to level them since ive been focused on the 4 and 5 star ones I pulled in the summer event and other banners since. Maybe next year for me lol.
Thanks! They are, especially the lottery. I still need so many silver statues and other materials it isnt funny lol. Thanks for your videos, I love how much detail you do into to explain the mechanics that are not particularly obvious otherwise. Even reading the Wiki articles on these fights, and having friends that have played for awhile I wouldnt even have a clue how to approach these events.
I used a friend's kintoki zerker and just focused on keeping him alive and spam his np. Used both the charge np command spell and heal command spell on him.
Still just grinding for the petals. Will wait until I max out the buster up CE. These are not easy! That's for sure. At least I got Nero. Great support servant.
I've mostly focused on farming medals then petals, in order to train the Neros, so I haven't attempted the Exhibition Quests yet. Part of the reason is that many of the servants I'd use on most of the quests are ones I neglected or got very recently. For example, I'm ready to tackle the Herc and probably Gil once he shows up, I have part of what I need for the Lancer Duo and the Hassans, and I'm woefully unprepared for Sieg and Medb. After finishing at least Nero Bride, I'm gonna train servants like Lu Bu, Helena Blavatsky and...sigh, Medea Lily
Thank you, unfortunately I'm going to have to give up on Helena and lily because I used up the Void Dust on the shop getting Scathach's God Slayer on 8, need the hearts from Sieg's heart for the rest of the levels
@@brawlfan9999 Medea Lily is extremely helpful in the challenge quests especially on fighting hassans and Nero boss rush due to her heal and debuff removal.
Thanks, but unfortunately she requires 12 accursed Void Dust and I already bought and used the 30 on the shop on skill enhancements for Scathach...so I would have to farm them and that would take enough AP to complete a box or 2....actually, that sounds worthwhile
I started playing this game just before the summer event came out, I managed to defeat Heracles and been struggling for the rest of the exhibitions. I really want to defeat Siegfried and Gilgamesh... I need the hearts and reverse scales :( :( im just gonna REST IN PIECES lol
Im confused according to u it was only a defence buff so why did my max level gilg with 200% attack ult +att up+ def down do less than my mash hitting him when his def was down.
so basically siegfried also has his "armor of fafnir " anime power (that was only B rank lvl attacks tho ) . i just used my friend's kintoki zerk with manx broken CE and smacked his ass with np twice . he was done .
Who said I couldn't do this with Liz just because she is a Lancer? :D I defeated him with Emiya, Liz and Waver. Okay, I admit, Liz died because of Siegfried's NP, but her defense debuff allowed Emiya to inflict more damage with UBW at least one time.
And that's why Plushie Mistress took both Lancer *and* Caster Liz into the fight. Lancer Liz died of course, but Caster Liz slayed the dragon slayer thanks to having a similar enough kit with a better class matchup.
When you say high defence you mean invincible skin cause his skin made by archer artoria, who had buffs from herself, waver and a mystic code do nothing, with out waver's defence down, he was so tacky that my original plan to np spam did not work until i switched to EMIYA.
Nice, congrats! I have a bunch of berserkers, but I'm missing Kintoki unfortunately. Defense ignoring NPs are so awesome though. I do have Herc thankfully, and that bond CE makes him a beast :)
Went in almost blind. The only thing I heard was that Siegfried had redonkulous defense, so I looked over at Da Vinci-chan again, because that NP ignores defense. In hindsight, if I remembered my Emiya (aka my 4 star tutorial servant), it probably would have been a lot smoother. Or Euryale. Turn 1, full NP. Body was not really ready - but thankfully, Mash was with Defense skill and NP. Fired off Da Vinci's NP and... "I have made a mistake." Diiidn't realize it was only up to 100% Defense ignore. In hindsight (aka two seconds later), it made a lot of sense, as that wouldn't have been much of a challenge. I brought Squirtoria due to all the Saber enemies, which ended up helping build Arts Chains and nipping away at Siegfried's NP, keeping herself alive with her heal skill. I survived about three NPs before Mash or Squirtoria died, then the other soon after. Support Waver's attack buff helped greatly, Nightingale brought crit stars with that Kintoki Captures the Carp CE which filled Da Vinci's NP with Art crit, and even managed to drop Siegfried's NP damage with her own. ...And then she died too. Jack came out for a few turns, then she died quickly because she needs more EXP, then waver died, and it was down to Da Vinci. It was probably the most dramatic turn of events, because two separate hits on her and I'd lose. He had a full NP. She had only 1 Guts. But it turns out... he doesn't attack after firing his NP. So in the end, Da Vinci stood alone, victorious.
Mebd was the easiest by far, I just kept nuking servants with Raikou with MLB ce and support Jack while having Jeanne d'arc provide defensive capabilities to the team. While I went Jeanne + Tamamo + support Waver extreme delay and sustain team for slow burn against Sieg, it worked even tho it took 30 turns. Similarly I went with Jeanne + Tamamo + support Da Vinci against assassins which was a bit of a slow burn aswell. But in this event I would say that Jeanne + Tamamo support duo for almost anything works, they have so much synergy between them due to arts cards and both provide defense and utility for the team or the 3rd one whose job is in the long run get the enemies killed. And I did i with 1/1/1 Jeanne at lvl 74 due to the fact that I just got her from previous batch of banners.
Awesome, grats on the fights and pulling Jeanne. I haven't managed to get myself a single ruler yet, but I love borrowing them from friends. A little dangerous bringing Tamamo to a fight full of riders, but Jeanne helps out.
@@FGOTips For that fight I had Raikou and Jack waveclearing with mlb event ce and Jeanne had to keep team alive, I wasn't such risk taker to play tamamo into riders. xD
A few things to consider:
1. DoT is not as good as it might sound, since he likes to spam Disengage and just remove them immediately.
2. I wouldn't recommend using Shuten here. I tried it myself and got a painful reminder that she's the daughter of a dragon. Siegfried used his Dragonslayer skill and focused her down, I'm pretty sure his AI prioritises dragon trait servants.

Thank you so much for the useful video but you made me wait a little longer xd
I know, sorry about that. Some things going on this week have put me way behind schedule. Hope the exhibitions are going well!
@@FGOTips no worries. My only worry is that i can't beat Siegfried whatsoever lol
Cleared Act 2, Act 3 and Act 4 . Gonna start Act 1, Act 5 and Act 6 today.

Grats on Nero!
Doing good so far happy got to use Mata Hari and Hundred Faces on the Mevb run it was real fun. Charm came in clutch for me.
Grats! I have never used Mata Hari for much of anything, I should have given that a try. It's a shame we can't repeat the exhibition matches.
FGO Tips Nero Fest 3 should let you replay them next year so we can do all types of crazy comps
Double Waver, Emiya, and Mata Hari! Yeah!
I still haven't leveled Mata Hari, but congrats on making that work! I'll have to try and catch her up soon.
I use martha(Ruler) and 2 berserker keep spam buster chain on him the bonus damage can pass his defend with Buster chain combo

I'm in the middle of leveling up my servants.
I am always in the middle of doing that :(

Awesome, congrats! Kintoki is amazing here, and sadly one if the berserkers I am missing myself.
I used Mash, Emiya (60) and borrowed a waver. Made it!!
Nice, congrats :)

I defeated him with Emiya, Liz and Waver. Okay, I admit, Liz died because of Siegfried's NP, but her defense debuff allowed Emiya to inflict more damage with UBW at least one time.

Done.
Turns out that an Okita at Lvl 100 is all you need.
(I'm playing Korean server)
Lol, grats on that one. Okita is one of my favorite sabers, I really wish quick based teams were more feasible.
yeah I kinda needed this video 2 days ago :/
the hassans one was so easy just time consuming i didnt lose a single servant went in with nursery rhyme, iri, and tamano
Did you have to wait on Iri's NP to kill Hassans, or was it usually ready already?
Apparently a lvl 80 Emiya with mlb white rose can solo Siegfried, relying heavily on evades.
Emiya's defense ignoring NP plus archer class is a huge advantage :)
*oof intensifies*
I used OG Kintoki and Herc with bond ce to buster brave chain and cleared Siegfried easily.
Nice, congrats! I have a bunch of berserkers, but I'm missing Kintoki unfortunately. Defense ignoring NPs are so awesome though. I do have Herc thankfully, and that bond CE makes him a beast :)
Shiro, Stheno, Euryale, Shiki, lu bu, and waver for the win
no kintoki? wow
@@ZerrZach yep got skills
Well, this one sounds like the easystish... out of the others, so I got a better chance with this one then the others so far.

Well, it's only 1 AP, which is something I appreciate. If they were 40 AP or something, well...

Sorry, real life is quite a distraction sometimes. Hopefully it's still helpful for anyone that hasn't been able to make it through yet :)
@@FGOTips Ah oke, np at all, just was curious. And yeah, this video is really helpful.
go for double angra
Ahhh... I knew I should have leveled him past 20 :(
angra is a beast (literally)
Well
It was quite easy
I used Emiya and Waver
It took 2 turns
Thanks for the guide (≧∇≦)b
