CE on Supports

Personally I always use supports with CE that give me additional EXP, bond, FP, or QP (unless it's during an event) instead of those give NP gauge, ATK, etc.
Therefore, I put most of the CEs that could do that on my supports.

However, I'm wondering what do other people do when choosing their supports? Is it actually better to focus on strength CE to get more FP?

Thanks in advance!

It's up to you, but if I had your servants and CEs, I'd probably go half and half. For example, do you really need to offer your friends 3 different bond point CEs? If someone is just looking for a support with a bond point CE, then they're probably more interested in the CE than the servant, so they don't actually care which servant has it. In that case, they don't really need a choice of 3 different servants with bond point CEs. Might as well just offer one bond point CE and then put combat CEs on the other two servants.

And there are a few servants that probably should always have certain CEs. For example, Heracles should probably always have his max bond guts CE on. Raikou should probably always have Kaleidoscope on. Personally, I probably also won't ever borrow an AOE saber that doesn't have Kaleidoscope, but that might just be me.

But he has only two - both essential (because only Heroic Spirit Portraits and Chaldea Lunchtime increase bond points gain) - bond+ CEs
on Waver and on Heracles
I think he needs to keep them both because HSP is useful on quest that give <500 BP and MLB ChLt on quests that give >500 BP
Rest of them are FP gain, master EXP and Mystic Code EXP

Thanks for your opinion.

It's kinda like Ivory Black said, I was assuming for both <500 BP or 500BP> scenario.
Also, in my case I'm often looking for berserker that has these kind of CE when farming 30AP EXP daily. (Since I actually never used support Hercules with his max bond CE, so even I have Hercules' max bond CE, I don't know if people really need it:P)
But I'm really appreciate for your response! It gives me a different perspective!

Oh, my bad. For some reason, I thought I saw three. And I didn't realize that people were running a lot of nodes that give less than 500 points. I guess that makes sense then.

When I farm Mana Prisms (by completing once 40 AP & farming 30 AP EXP Card daily quests) I'm looking for MLB Chaldea Lunchtime / Heroic Spirit Portrait - regardless of class and/or being friends or not
When I do 40 AP QP quest I ofc go for Rider with MLB Mona Lisa
When I do free quests / farm any kind of item (both on daily quest or free quest) I also prioritize MLB Chaldea Lunchtime / Heroic Spirit Portrait. Of course sometimes there are quite hard free quests so I must be smart not economic so I choose the most powerful servants
When I do main quest... it depends. If it's something easy (in my case a few Lancer/Assassin mobs) I go for our glorious bond raising CEs
But if it's Grand Battle or something harder (like last 3-4 chapters of Camelot) I go for servants with "normal" CEs

IMO you should keep this setup until Christmas. On Christmas ofc swap CEs to event ones.
When Christmas ends we'll looking forward to Babylonia and I think this is the time when you should put down those utility-CEs and go for metagame essences

Sorry for my English but I hope you understand what I mean ^^'

I see some of them aren't MLB I'd recommend not equipping those I mean people aren't going to want to take 2% extra when they could just refresh the page and find someone offering 10%. I would recommend kscopes or MLB IEs on people with AOE NPs that might be good for farming. Other than that just make sure that people are equip with a CE that synergizes with them.

Hehe You're right:P
I hesitated to put those not yet MLB CEs on, but I somehow feel I should.
I think I really should change them since even when myself see those kind of CE on supports, I'm not going to use them!

Thanks for your reply! Appreciated!

Put lunchtime to Waver is quite a good idea. Honestly speaking, people are more using Friends` caster class servants. Typically when there is no event or new chapter released. Even for new chapter, many player still need farm bond point.
