Prison Tower Challenge Quest DPS?

Hey, just wanted a few opinions, but I'm curious as to who would be my best choice for DPS in the boss rush.

I have a Merlin and Waver, but I'm a bit torn over who I should pick for the main damage dealer from my friends list.

I'm thinking of either Gilgamesh, Herc, or Jalter. Maybe Musashi, too. Who would be best?

If you feel like you could lend a hand and send me a request, then I'd really appreciate it. (Don't have to, though)

Since you have your own merlin and jalter you could go full buster memes and just do merlin, merlin, jalter which I know someone has done a video of it succeeding and the servants weren't high on np or skill level, really.

I suggest looking at the final guide for that quest as it suggests a lot of comps centered around dps and based on what is in the match. I specifically remember it suggesting a saber as the main dps for the reason that the fight has no archers. There's a lot of ways you can take it and you have the 2 best supports in the game so you have a lot of wiggle room in making a viable team that can stay alive.

I said I had my own Merlin, but the Jalter is borrowed. Is using Waver with both of them still effective?

I think so, yes. Waver is going to have to pick up slack for the lack of a second merlin with a max or near-maxed defense skill for the cooldown. Double merlin is so broken in part because he can spam a high heal/turn np. Obviously with only one you're missing out on some of that healing that can keep you alive, so minimizing downtime between waver's second skill will be important if you choose to go that route with the support Jalter.

Additionally, consider an np gain ce for Waver. He can't spam like merlin and you'll want to take advantage of his np as often as possible, so something like prisma cosmos or divine banquet might be a good option for him. For Merlin I'd recommend a crit star ce like 2030 or golden carp to help exploit Jalter's buster crits.

Ah, neat. I have Divine Banquet, Little Halloween Devil, and 2030.

For the former two, which one is better for NP? 50 right off the bat and quick gain or slightly quicker gain but from 0?

Since the fight is long I believe larger sustained gain will be more beneficial. They're both good ces though so you can't really go wrong with either.

Gil is a pretty good option. Almost every servant is weak to his NP, and Merlin and Waver, plus his own buffs, will make him extremely deadly for everything except the rulers and the two lancer mobs in round 5.

JAlter wouldn't have to worry about anyone resisting her damage, and the heals from Merlin could (potentially) offset the demerit on her third skill.

Herc I wouldn't recommend as much- I plan on using mine as a last resort with his bond CE, but don't want to use him with others. That restricts the use of his buster chains and guts.

If you have a friend with a good Mama Raikou, she'd fit in nicely too. Main weakness is her staying alive (but Waver has defense up and Merlin has invincibility) and her not having a crit damage buff (again, Waver and Merlin both provide).
