Just curious what's your team composition for clearing this node, i use assassin scathach, saber lancelot and support waver with mlb HNS, this usually take 5-6 turn to clear the node and give me 110-130 stocking per run with minimal risk
I like using Berserker Lancelot to generate lots of crit stars, that way the dragon can be taken down without using NP.
Even if I need to use NP for the dragon (if all cards happen to be Waver during 2nd battle) Lancelot has really good crit damage and absorb.
I know it's a bit of a whale setup but regular kaleid works too

Ibaraki (10/6/7) NP3, Tamamo Lancer (9/4/8) NP2, Friend Support Dantes (10/10/10) NP3, and the Chaldea Combat Uniform. The FP Dantes is equipped with a MLB Holy Night Supper, which the rest of my party is also equipped in, so I'm hauling in quite a few stockings each time. Pretty solid team; usually only ever experience getting attacked by the first wave and second wave, and only once each. Sometimes not even the latter.
I try to avoid finishing off the first wave in a single turn so I can build up Tamamo and Dantes' NPs. Same with the dragon in the second wave. Depending on how far along everyone's gauges are, I use Gandr first before Midsummer Curse, or else the dragon dies too quickly. I don't use a stun when I want to build up everyone's gauges with damage from the dragon.
If I manage to get Ibaraki's NP charged by the time I reach the third wave, I can finish them all off on the sixth turn (Tamamo NP on Caesar, then Dantes, then Ibaraki on Santa Alter). Otherwise, I can finish off Santa Alter in the next turn with the crit stars gained from Dantes' NP and Wisdom of Crisis (I love the guy I'm borrowing from for maxing out all Dantes' skills). That pretty much guarantees every attack is a crit. Alternatively, I bring out Mash from the backlines to charge up the rest of Ibaraki's gauge if she's close to 100%.
EDIT: Whoops, didn't mean to reply to you.
Cursed Arm, Summer Scathach, and Waver
7-9 turns
CA for dragon, Scathach for the final battle, and Waver for NP charge.
Grailed NP2 Mordred
Kuro
Paracelsus
All with regular HNS
Support Waver with MLB HNS
Paracelsus takes first wave with a little help.
Kuro easily handles dragon.
Waver-Mordred NP chain ends it.
3 turns unless I get an annoying lack of arts during the first two waves. Need the arts chain involving Waver or Mordred so I can charge both of their NPs.
Chloe/Summer Scathach/support Waver with MBL CE, and Royal Brand MC.
All CE slots have drop CE. Usually takes 5/6 turns but sometimes RNG can wreck the run. Should become more consistent as Royal Brand gets more levels.
Jack (NP3), Cleopatra, and a support Waver, with my Ozy(NP2) waiting in backline.
First turn used up support waver skill to charge up NP and then swap in Ozy for further boost....can finish within 3-5 turns depending on card decks. Full set of event CE on all servants.
Tamamo Cat-Mash-Jack(Friend)
It took me 8-10 turn.
Tamamo+Jack Clear Wave 1 (3 turn) (Jack NP bar full)
Jack Clear Wave 2 (1 turn)
Wave 3 took 4-6 turn, depending on Jack NP bar
Cu Alter, Jack, Support Waver, they are all I use then for the back servants, Herk, Summer Martha and Mash to get the Bond Points.
Carmilla, Arash, Helena, Scathach, Waver.
First Turn :
Helena use her lvl 10 + 20 % NP Gauge to Carmilla and Arash, Carmilla use her 1st skill lvl 4 so her NP gauge raised to 90 % then Arash use his 3rd skill to 100 %, Arash use Stella and died then Scathach arrived.
Second Turn :
Helena use her 3 skill to Carmilla and Scathach then swap Helena with Waver, Waver use all of his skill and use his first skill to Scathach so her NP gauge will be 100 % and then Carmilla kill the Dragon using her NP.
Third Turn :
Carmilla used her Def down skill to Santa Alter then Scathach use her 1st and 3rd skill along with Chaldea Battle Suit Party Atk Up then finished the stage using her AOE NP and 1-2 cards from Carmilla or Scathach.
My 3 turn farm Christmas lvl 90 party has 90 % chance of finishing the node with 10 % chance of 4 turn farm if Waver has all the cards on the 3rd turn.
I used the Chaldea Battle Suit here and i really need the swapping tactics to fill all of my crucial servants NP gauge to 100 %
I use this setup for a 3 turn (with a 4 turn guarantee no matter what) it can be changed as well I got it off the reddit. Arash (HNS), Kuro (HNS), Waver (HNS) My waver is low skill and not max lvl Waver can be replaced with Ozy or Helena, Scathach assassin (mlb HNS), support Waver (HNS), Mash (HNS). Scathach either needs a brave chain in the last round OR a crit hit to end the final fight.
Mash, borrowed Shuten-Douji and Ibaraki. Getting +6 or +7 socks, depending on support.
Takes anywhere from 8-15 turns. Looking at some of these super-fast chains there's definite room for improvement :D
3-4 turns
Combat mystic code
Arash w/ Kscope > Vlad (zerker) w/HNS when Arash goes down
Waver w/HNS - Pump up Vlad/Cleo w/ all buffs > Switch into Stheno - buff Vlad & Cleo
Friend's Cleo NP2 w/HNS mlb
Arash clears wave 1
Vlad (zerker) clears dragon
Cleo clears bosses in 1-2 turn depending if she can buster chain and if she was able to fill the NP meter (in almost all cases yes, unless I get a crappy card spread)
Since I don't have the essential stuff, I somehow managed to piece together this team. 6-8 turns
2 Santas for moral support and bond points because why not? :P
Cleo-Mozart-MHX-Any support-Mashu-Tammy Lancer.
I just love MHX so put her in.
Another role is to farming Tammy's bond to lv10. So sorry Mozart.
111/111 cost exactly.
I think Summer Shishou is also pretty good. The thing is you can manage to be damage by that AOE dragon in 2nd round to charge your NP until 3rd round but dont be killed (any team wide defense-up and evade/healing). Then 3rd round release AOE NP ASAP with brave chain to gain enough critical star to final crush.
I use gandr and hit that dragon with saberlot np crit brave chain, his crit brave chain always give him enough np refund so waver can charge him for the last phase, pop waver np for defense dow hit salter with saberlot np and scathach to clean the rest
Yeah that is good. Critical team can almost ignore non-class advantage. This event CE is also great for Lancelot.
There is indeed various way to do this final quest and farm the lottery. Not quite challenge-able if player can manage safely pass the 2nd round of AOE dragon. Like other suggested, even Mashu's stall team also overcome that and it is interesting.
While trying different teams I decided to use a buster oriented one, it takes me around 5-6 turns.
Using Mordred/Heracles/Waver/Elizabeth.
Using the first wave to charge NP's, usually takes 3 turns, then blast that dragon with BASAKA in one turn, then changing Herc and Liz to help buff Moedred and clear the 3rd wave.
If I get bored with the buster one I switch to the quick one, but it takes 7-8 turns.
Hundred Personas/Summer Scathatch/Jack.
Np3 Tama, NP2 Jack, random support (usually Waver) with MLB CE wearing Mage's Association Uniform. 6-7 turns. Could be further optimized.
If the first part of the team gets unlucky, Mash, Leonidas, and Mata Hari pick up the slack.
What surprised me was a support Shuten. She demolished the last wave better than Jack without support other than her own Lv10 skills.
Tama demolishes men. Jack demolishes women. They make a good team. ;)
Waver + summer shishou + support cleo
Use all waver skill (1st skill on shishou) then swap him with my own cleo. Use cleos' 2nd skill + 1st & 2nd wave to build up np to blast 3rd wave with triple NP. Use the last turn get remaining 2.xxx hp left on santa alter. All done in 9 turns
Arash with Kaleidoscope
Cleo with Imaginary Element
Waver support
Shiki with Kaleidoscope
Scathach summer with HNS MLB
First turn I use Arash NP and Cleo 2nd skill to start charging her NP bar, second turn I use Shiki's NP to kill the dragon, third turn I switch Shiki with Scathach, then I use all Waver skills to raise Scathach NP bar at max, Cleo NP is also 100% then I use Cleo+Sca NP and if I'm lucky with the third card being crit, I clear it in three turns, if not the combat last one more.
