Herc was the first hero I got at the start of the game, I didn't notice he was broken until I took him out of my party for a bit and got thrashed around like a rag doll.
Pretty much how I'm grinding Nerofest right now. I am using the event CE that doubles his damage and I just cut through the enemies, although it does involve letting best Kouhai die so I can Brave chain every 2 turns so I don't know how to feel about it.
herc, merlin, jeanne. with jeane and merlin, herc gets 2 shields on top of his evade, as well as help recover HP after guts kick in. also will be easier to charge NP due to having 7 arts card in the deck
Commenting to say that I've been screwed a number of times in story mode. Team gets wiped out, but my last man standing is Heracles. Mystic Code buffs up and he annihilates bosses with Buster Brave chains. What a guy.
Detherocable also on that note, they should make an unnerfed Artemis with her godly skills as an archer class servant, she has a skill to apply sure hit for 5 turns, death immunity for 3 turns, and triple restoration in one skill, evasion of arrows, critical increase, and defense increase for 3 turns on another skill, and lastly a increased attack against males, NP damage increase, and a NP charge for another skill, and her Noble Phantasm should be a arrow shot from the moon as an Anti army attack nuke that is a arts card with her QAABB deck, she’d be a 5 star for a reason
I love Hercules he was in my first 10 pull and he has been in my setup ever since. I just got lucky lucky enough to pull waver also. So I feel like I have a pretty strong team.
G&A Reviews basically buff herc as he flattens everything in his path? Im trying to get the regend to stage 2 so i can lvl him more. Meanwhile i'm rolling singles to see if i can get anything useable.
Listen, is you get Herc at least just put him in the back of every one of your parties. With his bond craft essence he arguably becomes the best servant in both NA and JP. For late game bosses a full bond level Herc is almost required.
When I started playing my standard team comp was Gil Herc and lvl 90 Gil support with Cu in backup. In theory the front row is a fragile team, except for all the enemies that you sweep through on the first turn so you dont take any damage. Now after grailing him to 90, I still sometimes bust out a Gil Herc (now lvl 100) support Gil. It's literally just a bunch of grunting and laughing, and I gotta say I love every minute of the slaughter.
As someone whos had herc sense I started I cant count how many times hes saved me and given me a huge W in a tight spot hes always in my party at the very end in case of emergency definitely roll for him
You know what would be a really nice thing to know, especially since the game is pretty fresh in North America? All the invisible stuff in the game. On the surface, it looks like servants only have two stats: attack and health, but under the hood there's a lot. We got traits, crit star absorption, weak to Enuma Elish, saberface, etc etc. What are those stats? What do they do? And how they impact each class's general performance?
I wouldn't say he's the best Berserker. But he is comparable to the top tier 5 star Berserkers when grailed to even 90 and that's a pretty big deal for a 4 star.
I'm just back here since I recently heard that he got a buff and that his attack now scales with how many times he had died. I'm excited for that buff to come to NA someday.
That's the name of his weapon I think. This is gonna be spoilers for the Heaven's Feel anime so click read if you don't care. Emiya Shirou in Heaven's Feel uses Herc's weapon and he says Nine Lives Blade Works whenever he manifests/uses it.
@@redroman4214 you're wrong and allow me to elaborate why: His weapon is just an axe sword that the einzbern made to summon a berserker, it's nothing special. Nine lives is a technique he make that can transfer into ANY weapon he uses since he masters every weapon ever and thus "nine lives blade work" is just that technique, shirou just added "blade works" since he trace the techniques history and origin , the reason why berserker Heracles can't use it (fgo aside) is because he lacks motor skill to pull off a technique that strike at godspeed Also fun fact: nine lives will bring the potential of any weapon Heracles uses to its maximum potential, it can be a sword, a shield, a spear, a bow, an axe, a hammer, a fucking boulder, literally ANYTHING and he can use the technique if he wants Extra fun fact: the Techniques name can be changed, if he's doing it with projectile then Nine lives: shooting the hundred heads. If it's physically then it's Nine lives: slaying the hundred heads. It explains why shirou changes the name
Nice review! :D Seriously, when you realize that Herc can solo Goethia, you have to wonder why he's only a 4 stars. Also, I REALLY want to see him as an archer!
I came here to learn more about Heracles since mine dies in some scenarios and oh boy I think I just inflicted a Mad Enhancement EX on myself after how much bullshit Heracles can deal with in F/GO compared to the F/SN routes anime. Bosses: I AM- Heracles: Get the fk outta my lawn *YEET*
Recently rolled a LZO, extremely tempted to leave him with Verdant Sound of Destruction anyways because that's just too appropriate. And pardon the unoriginal comment but I'm not seeing it here yet and it needs to be said; Basaka wa dare ni mo makenai, SEKAI DE ICHIBAN TSUYOI DAKARA!
i got him when i was still in Singularity F and i have never moved him out of my party since i started playing a little over a month ago, with my main strat in game being summed up as "GET'EM HERC"
I started last August and rolled him in the Heaven's Feel Spring Song banner along with OG Saber. Only 100k away from max bond. In the mean time I've been slapping an Under the Sun CE on him for 3 free hits so long as the enemy doesn't have invulnerability pierce. He's still a beast of a "Last Man Standing" servant even without his bond CE. I can't count how many challenge quests or tougher Lostbelt fights I've almost had to redo if not for him waiting in the very back to nuke the last break bar. Even if this review is nearly 4 years old now, it still rings very true even with all the new servants added since.
Herc was my very frist gold berserker in FGO, now he's at max ascension and on bond level 8. Not only is he my MVP berserker but he has carried me through Camelot all the way to Agartha so I'm glad i got spooked by him lol!
I've been keeping Bersercules in all my parties to grind his bond level, only at 6.5 though. I usually boost his buster damage, but at times I use the Nightless Rose CE as a discount version of his bond CE. In general I find berserker class characters to be a lot of fun to play (this may be due to my only ever pulling berserkers), but if your luck fails you, they can die very fast. It's good to have anyone who can boost their defense, even if it's just mash. For grinding the low level dailies, I just run my full trio of 4 star berserkers, and buster chain my way through. For high level dailies, I'll use either herc or lancelot (depending on what quest) with a support Waver. keep up the great videos.
Its funny, this video is now three years old but is still pretty much true. Even after three years, the only berserker to supplant Herc Berserk is Cu Chulainn and even then its a close fight, just because of Herc's absurd survivability.
Yesterday, I rolled on a Raikou rate up. A berserker card appeared and turned gold. I was already happy-dancing only to see that I've been spooked by Herc. I ain't even mad lol
Herc was my first 4 star. I still use him as my main in my party. I think he’s better then almost all the 5 stars I have, which is saying something. He’s a badass.
I am F2p player but I got him with NP5 also with CE bond. He is literally can solo anything until now except tituria with 3,3 mil hp. For me, he belong to SSR class and he will get really high rank in SSR tier list
AOKI Welcome to the world of FGO Hard Mode, where in which the power goes to your head and most of your Servants get pushed to the side in exchange for amusing ego trips.
I love my herc. He has saved me on so many occasions and carried me during the recent nerofest. Plus I think he likes me aswell because he kept coming back till he was NP 5. You know I grailed him to 100 first chance I got.
Sweet I’m glad to hear this! He was my first character I got and I love him especially after watching the series. He’s pretty good and even though I’m still learning you mentioned something another person told me. That he’s good being in the back as a last Hail Mary later on. I can’t wait till I can ascend him and I’m so close. He’ll be my first ascension servant and now that I got Illya I feel all cozy that they’re together :)
Herc is insanely useful! He has clutched out so many big bosses for me. Especially in Camelot and Babylon on JP. Of all 4 star servants to use grails on, he might be the most worth it. Nero and the Alters as runner-ups.
I think it'd be pretty cool if Herc gets a strengthening quest that gives him additional 30-50 or 20-30% mana burst on his first skill and name it "The 12 labors" or "Gift of the God's"
Its mind blowing to me that this is him at his weakest. If he gets summoned on ANY other class he is gonna be even more OP. I will never mind getting spooked by him. He carried my account when I stopped playing for almost a year. He seems to be resisting his Madness Enhancement at times throughout Fate. Giving him valentines chocolate was so worth it. I threw my thumbs up like a little child.
The one everyone kinda wants... Though personally I only use him for stages where it's only one boss, and even then I move all Berserkers to the back just before Cu for clutch factor.
I just love these videos, they help a lot and are fun to watch, Can you do a video about Lanceot next? cuz I really see potential in him in a crit team especially with the current servants like Mozart
I was super lucky and I got him in the free 10x drop they give you at the beginning of the game. I always have him in my party, even if I'm just farming weak fights, especially when I found out what his bond essence does.
I love running Herc as my support. I usually run him with Lancer Cu and Mashu. I use Cu's Guts and Evasion so he can just survive and act as a target, while Mashu protects Herc when Herc's evasion is down. So I keep Herc surviving thanks to Mashu and Cu, while I dish out loads of damage with him.
Just got back to FGO since i only played the JP version before. After a few rerolls at the start, kept 2 Hercs and some other random CE's. Never regretted the decision to stop rerolling then.
I have Hercules but i can't make him powerful because of accession materials bs all I need is some Octuplet crystals but the game wont let me get more faster -_-
I just completed getting cu alters bond CE, and I have had herc ever since I had cu alter. now I have a reason to actually use him. plus, that bond CE looks nifty.
So, I was trying to roll Kiara, and this guy showed up along with the Kaleidoscope Craft essence. No lewd nun, but I saw that roll as an absolute win as I've wanted Herc for the longest time. The occasions where I selected him from my support list let me know that he was a Berserker worth investing in.
You know, the funny thing is, I been putting off leveling Herc since day one... And it looks like he's gonna have to get comfy that way... I mean, Cu and all.
Hey G&A Reviews! Since you are doing Altera next week could you do Siegfried alongside her? Just like how you did 2 beserkers one 4 star and one 5 star, why not do something similar? Keep up the great work!
Ah herc you kill my enemies and then turn them into ground beef for the hamburgers after. I am looking at you spinixs got to love the big guy just pls just dont let him hug me XD
Thanks for the helpful video! All that information does make him tempting to use in the future since I pulled him recently, along with Lancelot though I don't plan on using him much. Although I am so invested in Tam Cat (both in terms of mats since she is maxed ascended and nearly maxed skills) who also has the incomparable best Waifu appeal, that it is hard to justify raising him (at least not until I fully max out my beloved Tam Cat first) or actually using him much. Especially since I feel so connected to Cat since she was my first four star and has been with me since the beginning. But the flexibility of FGO allows me to use her even in the hard, non farming events where she is less optimal thankfully! :D But I guess if nothing else I can keep him in the back line to raise his bond level a bit for the broken CE in the meantime, the current ex nodes in the event give a good deal of bond points xD
That's the beauty of FGO, you aren't forced into following the meta and using the top tier units, you can always stick with your waifu and favorite characters.
For a berserker, herc got quite decent np gain and star gain, my strategy usually let lancelot kill a wave with his np and give the stars to herc while doing his np Just waiting on animation update now (come on DW!)
Im not a doctor but ill still subscribe this channel XD SO i actually got lucky and have herc i didnt know he was this broken. Thx for this spotlight since i wouldnever have even considered building a team with him
I personally use Verdant sound of Destruction on my Herc. I mean, it'd be pretty awesome to do a Noble Phantasm in one go by using Kaleidoscope, but a good Buster increase card can be really good. Not to mention Verdant sound of destruction is a 4 star Craft essence, and if your lucky enough, it's actually a bit easier to get this CE 4 times than getting a 2nd or 3rd Kaleidoscope, so it's easy enough to dish out a constant additional 20% effective Buster card. I only have Herc at level 70 atm, and he dishes out around 100k with a Buster chain by simply activating Valor, since he took out a level 70 Servant in the Nero fest in one turn (clutch save, I've had herc since my first roll in FGO, and has been my main ever since. Sekai de Ichiban tsuyoi dakara). Though I do plan on putting Castle of Snow on him once at bond level 10, but I'd say that Verdant sound of destruction is a very good CE to have on him as well if you don't really plan on having him spam NP's right on the first turn like when using Kaleidoscope, so it's also a really good CE on him if the battle is a really long one
Sober Onii you told me to upgrade Herc over Nero and I have not regretted it. He is sitting at 70 right now and he just ruins lives. And now that I have leveled Hans he is never going to die either. You said before that early on we are going to walk through the early game but Herc is just on another level. Herc is my second favorite servant right now behind Iskander. Now I just need to wait for his banner to come around...
I rolled him at 4 am, I was rolling for Romani Fire Flower CE and Heracles and Sanzang join my Chaldea and now I'm like "Fair, children". I just maxed out Valor, but unfortunately I have no Berserker Exp with which feed him, so he'll stay at level 1 until I'll get those embers.
It's just being unlucky. Compared to other Berserkers, at least Herc can survive the crit with Battle Continuation, and can survive more turns by applying evade. Not to mention having a Mystic Code that can apply evade as well for a clutch save. Actually if you really think about it, surviving for 3 turns on CE, surviving for 1 more on his 3rd skill, surviving 1 full turn on his evade skill, and surviving one more if you use an evade, and if your lucky, Battle continuation will be back up again for one more, that's basically a God's Hand right there
because they fear him, so every time he hasn't his 2nd and 3rd skill active they focus him ... then if he manages to survive well, that's game over lol
umm im late, but.. berserker class is strong and also weak againts all 6 main classes (saber lancer archer rider caster assassin). berserk class can be an easy target if the enemy attack them first. but can be a great attacker if they attack the enemy first
My friend recommended I get him from my 7 million summon ticket, and i gotta say, Herc was definitely worth it. Dude has carried me through many fights whether in story or an event. I'm only at Okenos btw.
What command codes should i put on him? Im on the fifth singularity right now. What should i aim for. Pretty sure all the command codes i have atm are bad haha.
@@Blue-bi3pz Have 1 code that removes debuffs. You will need it on Lostbelt 3 for a stupid fight. Other than that, I would say you should use codes that give crit stars or increase damage vs servants
Ah hercules, everyone on my friends list has him with the odd Kiyohime and Vlad. Meanwhile I picked Emiya because reasons( and immediately roll a Gilgamesh before even getting the chance to use him. Still don't regret it, but it kinda felt like a slap on the face in a really weird way). So I'm working with Asterios for the time being ( who I'm loving whenever the ai doesn't bombard him with crits the moment he enters the field) but would really like the chance to grab him.
Herc was the first hero I got at the start of the game, I didn't notice he was broken until I took him out of my party for a bit and got thrashed around like a rag doll.
I always make sure I have him in my reserves, just in case. He's like my insurance policy lol
I got herc with a 3 turn invincible ce as my first, cleared levels easily.
@arnold jayeola three hit, sorry.
@Hana Rose 3 hit ce not skill.
@Hana Rose he got CE (probably Volumen Hydrargyrum) from gatcha not his bond CE.
Herc + Merlin = Bosses? Nah, just bigger minions
Or 2 waver
Pretty much how I'm grinding Nerofest right now. I am using the event CE that doubles his damage and I just cut through the enemies, although it does involve letting best Kouhai die so I can Brave chain every 2 turns so I don't know how to feel about it.
2 merlins+Heracles=pure devastation.
+Dat Boi you wrong, Tamamo caster + Heracles + Merlin, sure pain every boss scene XD
herc, merlin, jeanne. with jeane and merlin, herc gets 2 shields on top of his evade, as well as help recover HP after guts kick in. also will be easier to charge NP due to having 7 arts card in the deck
6 years later and bro still good as hell
I pick this angery swole boi at "3 milion downloads" events on NA server, definitely worth it 8)
Commenting to say that I've been screwed a number of times in story mode. Team gets wiped out, but my last man standing is Heracles. Mystic Code buffs up and he annihilates bosses with Buster Brave chains. What a guy.
Hes a champ
hi a2
Does anyone else think that they should add Archer Herc to fgo?
he would need similar skill's, namely mind's eye and battle continuation
They should have at least considered making him Grand Archer. Although I love Orion and all.
Detherocable also on that note, they should make an unnerfed Artemis with her godly skills as an archer class servant, she has a skill to apply sure hit for 5 turns, death immunity for 3 turns, and triple restoration in one skill, evasion of arrows, critical increase, and defense increase for 3 turns on another skill, and lastly a increased attack against males, NP damage increase, and a NP charge for another skill, and her Noble Phantasm should be a arrow shot from the moon as an Anti army attack nuke that is a arts card with her QAABB deck, she’d be a 5 star for a reason
@Ibrahim Mehmet with the god's and goddesses you can summon and having servant's like Cu and Merlin as well as Waver
@Ibrahim Mehmet If they can add Super Orion who's a (former) grand servant, they can add archer Herc
Him: Herc is almost immortal
Dots(damage over time) and field damage: Allow us to inttroduce ourselves
Command Code:Look at me
Now Herc can solo without worry your pathetic damage
Its been 6 years and the man still has a lot of fight in him...
bruh those updated animations are beautiful
That's why I used my JP Herc instead, 10/10 animations
Any idea on when we could get em in NA?
Herc has been pretty much MVP of my team since I got him.
Yea he is gonna be MVP for a long time
i paired him with medea lilly and waver. Literally unkillable lol
I love Hercules he was in my first 10 pull and he has been in my setup ever since. I just got lucky lucky enough to pull waver also. So I feel like I have a pretty strong team.
i need to level mine before i can make good use of him.
Waver + Herc = you are set for life
I hope so
G&A Reviews basically buff herc as he flattens everything in his path? Im trying to get the regend to stage 2 so i can lvl him more. Meanwhile i'm rolling singles to see if i can get anything useable.
you might want an aoe np servant as well.
Listen, is you get Herc at least just put him in the back of every one of your parties. With his bond craft essence he arguably becomes the best servant in both NA and JP. For late game bosses a full bond level Herc is almost required.
Herc carried the team from the bowels of Fuyuki to the heights (and depths) of Babylon
Ilya was right, he is the strongest!

What are those stats? What do they do? And how they impact each class's general performance?
Might add that to future spotlights, thanks for the suggestion
Wanna know a fun story about Herc? Not having his bond ce during Rashomon.
TommyRPD I know I've been bond farming him for Camelot in na
same here i got his bond CE about a week ago ( well i started this account at Nero Bride even tho ) and he has 2 grails just to be sure.
It is kinda fun watching old fgo vids, seeing how different tha game was back then, never having experienced it as a newer ish player
Went through the entire game with a level 20 mash, 24 Lily, and a friend's 60 herc, herc op
I wouldn't say he's the best Berserker. But he is comparable to the top tier 5 star Berserkers when grailed to even 90 and that's a pretty big deal for a 4 star.
I'm just back here since I recently heard that he got a buff and that his attack now scales with how many times he had died. I'm excited for that buff to come to NA someday.
Huh, still kinda confused as to why his NP is called Nine lives when it has nothing to do with his HP or survivability.
I think its called nine lives cause its the technique he used to kill the hydra, think its originally called nine lives:shooting hundred heads.
That's the name of his weapon I think. This is gonna be spoilers for the Heaven's Feel anime so click read if you don't care.
Emiya Shirou in Heaven's Feel uses Herc's weapon and he says Nine Lives Blade Works whenever he manifests/uses it.
It was used to destroy the 9 main heads of the hydra
@@redroman4214 you're wrong and allow me to elaborate why: His weapon is just an axe sword that the einzbern made to summon a berserker, it's nothing special.

Also fun fact: nine lives will bring the potential of any weapon Heracles uses to its maximum potential, it can be a sword, a shield, a spear, a bow, an axe, a hammer, a fucking boulder, literally ANYTHING and he can use the technique if he wants
Extra fun fact: the Techniques name can be changed, if he's doing it with projectile then Nine lives: shooting the hundred heads. If it's physically then it's Nine lives: slaying the hundred heads. It explains why shirou changes the name
Nice review! :D
Seriously, when you realize that Herc can solo Goethia, you have to wonder why he's only a 4 stars.
Also, I REALLY want to see him as an archer!
If 4* Herc is this broken, 5* Archer Herc would probably just redefine the entire meta of the game lol
I came here to learn more about Heracles since mine dies in some scenarios and oh boy I think I just inflicted a Mad Enhancement EX on myself after how much bullshit Heracles can deal with in F/GO compared to the F/SN routes anime.
Bosses: I AM-
Heracles: Get the fk outta my lawn *YEET*

i got him when i was still in Singularity F and i have never moved him out of my party since i started playing a little over a month ago, with my main strat in game being summed up as "GET'EM HERC"
6:55 illiya and herc if emiya Kerry and iri were here it would be a family
Illya's coming in 2 days!!!! I have NP2 Herc, NP3 Kerry, NP3 Emiya, and NP5 Iri!!!
I started last August and rolled him in the Heaven's Feel Spring Song banner along with OG Saber. Only 100k away from max bond.

keep up the great videos.
Thanks! And it does come down to luck a lot of the time, especially since if you are super unlucky and get crit you usually die in 1-2 hits.
His Bond CE is OP AF, There is a video on youtube of Herc SOLOING the final boss of FGO. If that's not OP then I dont know what is.
Many servants can actually solo Goetia, not just herc.
I was almost considering not going for Herc as my free 4* since I got Tamamo Cat before him, but goddamn am I glad I still picked him.
Its funny, this video is now three years old but is still pretty much true. Even after three years, the only berserker to supplant Herc Berserk is Cu Chulainn and even then its a close fight, just because of Herc's absurd survivability.
Yesterday, I rolled on a Raikou rate up. A berserker card appeared and turned gold. I was already happy-dancing only to see that I've been spooked by Herc. I ain't even mad lol
Same happened to me, but.. It was Fran... Atleast I already have Herc
Herc was my first 4 star. I still use him as my main in my party. I think he’s better then almost all the 5 stars I have, which is saying something. He’s a badass.
got Herc on the tutorial roll. He has since been one of my go too servants along with cu and artoria archer
Herc's animation in jp looks soo cool!!!
I wish NA has those updated animations
Should be getting them soon, they have been releasing animation updates in steady chunks
they arrived yesterday *boi*
I am F2p player but I got him with NP5 also with CE bond. He is literally can solo anything until now except tituria with 3,3 mil hp. For me, he belong to SSR class and he will get really high rank in SSR tier list
He is best berserker lol
AOKI Grail him to 90 and he basically is a 5*.
rotciv557 yes, I have. Now, the bad thing is I got addicted to solo with him in hard battle eventhough I have some SSR 😂
AOKI Welcome to the world of FGO Hard Mode, where in which the power goes to your head and most of your Servants get pushed to the side in exchange for amusing ego trips.
harbi4ever111 sure 947.551.960
I love my herc. He has saved me on so many occasions and carried me during the recent nerofest. Plus I think he likes me aswell because he kept coming back till he was NP 5. You know I grailed him to 100 first chance I got.
Sweet I’m glad to hear this! He was my first character I got and I love him especially after watching the series. He’s pretty good and even though I’m still learning you mentioned something another person told me. That he’s good being in the back as a last Hail Mary later on. I can’t wait till I can ascend him and I’m so close. He’ll be my first ascension servant and now that I got Illya I feel all cozy that they’re together :)
Herc is insanely useful! He has clutched out so many big bosses for me. Especially in Camelot and Babylon on JP.
Of all 4 star servants to use grails on, he might be the most worth it. Nero and the Alters as runner-ups.
Oh I want to see a Cu (the one dubbed as the Cockroach) Spotlight! I heard he's like the strongest Lancer on release?
AtlanticWalrus There's even a vid of someone soloing Cu Alter as Classic Lancer! He really is his best class :D
I just saw it! It was amazing! Need to see more of that guys vids so I can get the timings on Cu's Skills right
I covered Cu in my F2P guide
I think it'd be pretty cool if Herc gets a strengthening quest that gives him additional 30-50 or 20-30% mana burst on his first skill and name it "The 12 labors" or "Gift of the God's"
Heracles’ nine lives is basically when you find your hidden cheese strings at 3 am
Its mind blowing to me that this is him at his weakest. If he gets summoned on ANY other class he is gonna be even more OP. I will never mind getting spooked by him. He carried my account when I stopped playing for almost a year. He seems to be resisting his Madness Enhancement at times throughout Fate. Giving him valentines chocolate was so worth it. I threw my thumbs up like a little child.
Herakles was always a badass, in lore and gameplay wise, he is awesome(for fucks sake! The guy was an inch from killing Gilgamesh!)
I found him to be op as hell with Banana and Cú Alter.
The one everyone kinda wants...
Though personally I only use him for stages where it's only one boss, and even then I move all Berserkers to the back just before Cu for clutch factor.
I just love these videos, they help a lot and are fun to watch, Can you do a video about Lanceot next? cuz I really see potential in him in a crit team especially with the current servants like Mozart
I was super lucky and I got him in the free 10x drop they give you at the beginning of the game. I always have him in my party, even if I'm just farming weak fights, especially when I found out what his bond essence does.
the best carry servant
he carried me through solomon with his bond ce, truly the best berserker after cu alter
Viki Wahyudi Cu alter is 5*
yeah, so?
I got his max bond essence last month and I can't wait to use it on him ^^
I love running Herc as my support. I usually run him with Lancer Cu and Mashu. I use Cu's Guts and Evasion so he can just survive and act as a target, while Mashu protects Herc when Herc's evasion is down.
So I keep Herc surviving thanks to Mashu and Cu, while I dish out loads of damage with him.
Nice strategy
I heard about herc.
So after i learn about reroll....i did until i got him.
Best decision ever
Herc was my gold servant for the mandatory fuyuki tutorial roll
I just got him along with three other 4 star berserkers in one draw today! So I have quite the decision to make with my main berserker.
Just got back to FGO since i only played the JP version before. After a few rerolls at the start, kept 2 Hercs and some other random CE's. Never regretted the decision to stop rerolling then.
Really happy I got Herc he destroys
Chiron dialogue if you have Herc just cemented it for me. He is resisting his madness enhancement an is very intelligent even in his current state.
I have Hercules but i can't make him powerful because of accession materials bs all I need is some Octuplet crystals but the game wont let me get more faster -_-
"Who puts the 'glad' in gladiator?"
Anyone here from the recent jp 5 anniversary, cause his upgrade is huge. I feel that we should revise his ranking. Berserker the strongest!
I just completed getting cu alters bond CE, and I have had herc ever since I had cu alter. now I have a reason to actually use him. plus, that bond CE looks nifty.
Great video, I'd love Medea alongside Altera personally. (Or at least at some point down the line)
I covered Medea in my F2P video as one of the best F2P casters
So, I was trying to roll Kiara, and this guy showed up along with the Kaleidoscope Craft essence. No lewd nun, but I saw that roll as an absolute win as I've wanted Herc for the longest time. The occasions where I selected him from my support list let me know that he was a Berserker worth investing in.
Basaka wa dare ni mo makenai dakara
Sekai de ichiban tsuyoi dakara
You know, the funny thing is, I been putting off leveling Herc since day one... And it looks like he's gonna have to get comfy that way... I mean, Cu and all.
Hey G&A Reviews! Since you are doing Altera next week could you do Siegfried alongside her? Just like how you did 2 beserkers one 4 star and one 5 star, why not do something similar? Keep up the great work!
Ah herc you kill my enemies and then turn them into ground beef for the hamburgers after. I am looking at you spinixs got to love the big guy just pls just dont let him hug me XD
Rolled him on the Ishtar banner alongside the goddess herself.
Hercules will never let you down he wont give you up and he wont hurt you
You recommend it to me in Twitter, I come for review here to say yes yes yes yes ikeeee bazakaaaa !!!!
IDK why but whenever I play FGO I just pull out this specific servant spotlight and I just have it play in the background
Just have to love the buster brave chain
Thanks for the helpful video! All that information does make him tempting to use in the future since I pulled him recently, along with Lancelot though I don't plan on using him much.
Although I am so invested in Tam Cat (both in terms of mats since she is maxed ascended and nearly maxed skills) who also has the incomparable best Waifu appeal, that it is hard to justify raising him (at least not until I fully max out my beloved Tam Cat first) or actually using him much. Especially since I feel so connected to Cat since she was my first four star and has been with me since the beginning. But the flexibility of FGO allows me to use her even in the hard, non farming events where she is less optimal thankfully! :D
But I guess if nothing else I can keep him in the back line to raise his bond level a bit for the broken CE in the meantime, the current ex nodes in the event give a good deal of bond points xD
That's the beauty of FGO, you aren't forced into following the meta and using the top tier units, you can always stick with your waifu and favorite characters.
Was rolling for Cu Alter, got Herc instead. And I laughed at the irony!
For a berserker, herc got quite decent np gain and star gain, my strategy usually let lancelot kill a wave with his np and give the stars to herc while doing his np
Just waiting on animation update now (come on DW!)
Im not a doctor but ill still subscribe this channel XD SO i actually got lucky and have herc i didnt know he was this broken. Thx for this spotlight since i wouldnever have even considered building a team with him
I personally use Verdant sound of Destruction on my Herc. I mean, it'd be pretty awesome to do a Noble Phantasm in one go by using Kaleidoscope, but a good Buster increase card can be really good. Not to mention Verdant sound of destruction is a 4 star Craft essence, and if your lucky enough, it's actually a bit easier to get this CE 4 times than getting a 2nd or 3rd Kaleidoscope, so it's easy enough to dish out a constant additional 20% effective Buster card. I only have Herc at level 70 atm, and he dishes out around 100k with a Buster chain by simply activating Valor, since he took out a level 70 Servant in the Nero fest in one turn (clutch save, I've had herc since my first roll in FGO, and has been my main ever since. Sekai de Ichiban tsuyoi dakara). Though I do plan on putting Castle of Snow on him once at bond level 10, but I'd say that Verdant sound of destruction is a very good CE to have on him as well if you don't really plan on having him spam NP's right on the first turn like when using Kaleidoscope, so it's also a really good CE on him if the battle is a really long one
Got him with the tutorial roll.
Have had Heracles since the start. :)
I just started playing this week and I got Heracles and Carmilla as my starter servants. wow
I always bring him in every quest, because he is sekai de ichiban tsuyoi
Sober Onii you told me to upgrade Herc over Nero and I have not regretted it. He is sitting at 70 right now and he just ruins lives. And now that I have leveled Hans he is never going to die either. You said before that early on we are going to walk through the early game but Herc is just on another level. Herc is my second favorite servant right now behind Iskander. Now I just need to wait for his banner to come around...
Nice! Glad I was able to help!
I started playing this game and I just got him
lol Herc was the first servant I ever got. I'm really happy with him. Definitely Grailing him.
Just got him today. Useful vid. Thanks.
Glad it helps!
A fully grailed Herc is actually stronger than most of the 5* servants stat-wise even when they're grailed. In the JP version.
Yea, Herc is just crazy I plan on grailing mine in JP version soon.
Good thing he's my Starting 4* Servant then after playing some time I got Mama Raikou as well as Tamazerker
I rolled him at 4 am, I was rolling for Romani Fire Flower CE and Heracles and Sanzang join my Chaldea and now I'm like "Fair, children".
I just maxed out Valor, but unfortunately I have no Berserker Exp with which feed him, so he'll stay at level 1 until I'll get those embers.
Was waiting for the ichiban line.
Still waiting
Hercules never let me down?
He keeps dying to crits :(
I mean it, most of time when he is targeted, he gets crited.
Why!!!???
That is a berserker thing unfortunately, they all melt to crits, just a matter of being unlucky
It's just being unlucky. Compared to other Berserkers, at least Herc can survive the crit with Battle Continuation, and can survive more turns by applying evade. Not to mention having a Mystic Code that can apply evade as well for a clutch save. Actually if you really think about it, surviving for 3 turns on CE, surviving for 1 more on his 3rd skill, surviving 1 full turn on his evade skill, and surviving one more if you use an evade, and if your lucky, Battle continuation will be back up again for one more, that's basically a God's Hand right there
Teren Liu Ikr? I've been standing at whatever boss where Berserkers are meant to shine and he just gets wrecked in 1 turn. They know. The bosses KNOW
because they fear him, so every time he hasn't his 2nd and 3rd skill active they focus him ... then if he manages to survive well, that's game over lol
umm im late, but..
berserker class is strong and also weak againts all 6 main classes (saber lancer archer rider caster assassin).
berserk class can be an easy target if the enemy attack them first. but can be a great attacker if they attack the enemy first
My friend recommended I get him from my 7 million summon ticket, and i gotta say, Herc was definitely worth it.
Dude has carried me through many fights whether in story or an event.
I'm only at Okenos btw.
Finally got my first herc today after three and a half years of fgo.
Congrats!
@@GAReviews thank you
First 4* of the year and first spook of the year
This boy deserved every single grail and gold Fou and Command code he got
What command codes should i put on him? Im on the fifth singularity right now. What should i aim for.
Pretty sure all the command codes i have atm are bad haha.
@@Blue-bi3pz Have 1 code that removes debuffs. You will need it on Lostbelt 3 for a stupid fight. Other than that, I would say you should use codes that give crit stars or increase damage vs servants
Give this boi an update
Ah hercules, everyone on my friends list has him with the odd Kiyohime and Vlad. Meanwhile I picked Emiya because reasons( and immediately roll a Gilgamesh before even getting the chance to use him. Still don't regret it, but it kinda felt like a slap on the face in a really weird way). So I'm working with Asterios for the time being ( who I'm loving whenever the ai doesn't bombard him with crits the moment he enters the field) but would really like the chance to grab him.
I was expecting him to shout in the entire video.
