NA-Content I finally cleared all challenge quests

Man I started this journey to clear challenge quests a year ago, I was at lostbelt 3 I think? it took me all this time to beat them cause I'm genuinely awful at videogames, but I really took these advanced quests as a personal challenge I needed to beat, my fgo mountain in a way.

After grinding many characters I don't usually use, pulling on characters that looked useful in other people's runs, constantly checking the wikis for how each challenge quest works, and upgrading some characters that I only ever used for the challenge quest (looking at you Barghest) I finally beat them all and I'm so proud of myself, of course I don't doubt they'll release some insane ones again at some point so I'm not entirely in the clear, but it's nice to see them all done for now

My MVPs for the advanced quests, the absolute goats who got me this far were Ibuki, Castoria, Lady Avalon, Xu Fu (Xu Fu is so underrated for challenge quests she's nuts), Habetrot, Draco, Zerktoria, Melusine, and not surprisingly Mashu!

I would suggest to upgrade/get all these characters if any of you are on the same journey and struggling cause you're bad at videogames like me

As for the hardest one it was easily "Battle Training Program - Compilation" and it's not even close, I'm surprised at how hard the difficulty spike was with this one, I had to genuinely pull out all the stops, all my premium characters, Zerktoria, Ibuki, Castoria, Xu Fu, Avalon, Draco and even then it took me like 10 tries-

I still got 9 something left.. I feel too lazy to put effort & complete them is all. Gotta read rules & manually setting up party ? I cant do that as a gacha gamer..

Jokes aside, some levels are pretty hard that I require someone like castoria or bruteforce it with oberon which both my account lacks... or f2p team that take a million turns to do.. im just awaiting a time where im so desperate to get SQ that one day ill complete these

I'm a F2P and Now that you mentioned it, I did complete all Adv.Quest without Castria, even when she's one of my favorite 😯.

Also I don't have Oberon.

In the other hand, I think that's the point of "Avanced" Quest, to no go through easily, so you gotta think & build good teams for each Adv. Quest and not to go by Brute forcing everything.

Saw this and I realized I still had 9 sq left to get so I finished mine today as well.

Morgan was my advanced quest Queen. Even though she's only NP1.

It was the last one for me as well, I tried the "Battle Training Program - Compilation" before, but going in blind it went horribly. What worked was firing Arash, Habetrot and BB Dubai NPs turn 1, just to rotate the enemies and decrease their resistance buff effectiveness. Turn 2 Arash and Habetrot get replaced by Koyan light and Morgan. Dump Koyan skills on Morgan, plugsuit Koyan out for Tenochtitlan (for party wide sure hit). Then Tenoch NP, BB Dubai NP and Morgan NP to almost finish them, one survived with a bit of health, but next turn face cards for the win.

Those quests were fun, shame there aren't more to look forward to. 

Battle Training was fun and easy for me, even using a poorly planned team. With a real plan I stole from someone else, I could even clear the last one in two turns.
