Moon Goddess Event Shop

If you didn't do the event last year, is it possible to clear shop without apples including the monuments?

If it's anything like the Halloween rerun, should be cakewalk to clear the shop. Remember pricing is reduced in reruns to make the grinding not so bad.

Not that hard actually. I already have 5 MLB 3 star event CE to support me on this even. Failed to clear the event shop last year due to lack on lancer.. Only had Cu Cullain and Eliza at that time as lancer.

Based on the event guide here, with the state rates of drops, I've started doing some calculations/simulations. Of course, if the drops are better/shop is cheaper than the event rerun in JP, then it could be easier (or harder).

If you didn't do it last year (like me), completely clearing the shop without apples would be hard, I think. Not counting the CE in the shop, you would need to get 9000 dumplings and 2900 rare dumplings. The shop CE, +3/stack (+4 MLB), comes at prices of 500, 2000, and 5000 dumplings, and 500 and 1000 rare dumplings. If you're not going to use apples, my calculations seem to point to only the 2 500 dumpling CEs giving you back more than you spend for them.

The first gate it seems is how quickly you can get the 400 rare dumplings to open the goddess difficulty. One thing to remember is that the 3* CE, Mooncell Automaton (+1/stack, +2 MLB) has been available in the FP gacha even outside of the event. I actually have 1 MLB and 4 others, even though I wasn't playing at the time this event was run first. That can help immensely if you got and saved them. If not, you'll be starting with pretty low bonuses and will have to run the lower free quests a couple more times than I would.

The next gate is getting the rare dumplings, as the best node for that is expert, but it drops about 2/3 the number of normal dumplings, so the longer you farm there, the more you'll have to grind the goddess level. I didn't simulate trying to buy out the whole shop, but I'd have to guess you'd need about +15/stack bonuses (or the equivalent, the 100% bonus event CE is about the equivalent of +4/stack at the goddess level).

Got the same question also. I have no moon cell automaton currently and my remaining apples are only 9. Is it possible for me to clear just the hearts, pages, and feathers? Those are the things that I really need the most.

Using my calculation, I just ran a scenario for someone in your situation. My assumptions: 1) You start the event with an AP bar at 100; 2) You start spending your AP when the event starts, and never let yourself reach your AP cap (in other words, you use every bit of your 288/day AP budget; 3) You pull one Mooncell from the FP gacha to start (should be doable); 4) you find a friend with a +3 5* CE (that's non-MLB, but if you have one with an MLB, take it...)--this should be possible as a fair number of people probably ran the event the last time and have one.

You then run the main quests as soon as you're able, running the highest free quest available until you unlock the next main mission. You equip the Mooncell you get for doing the first main quest. You also buy the 5* CE for 500 dumplings (D) as soon as you can, and then the one for 500 rare dumplings (RD).

Now, the results will vary depending on how much you want to buy from the shop for RD. I will presume you only want the 20 Claws of Chaos for 1200 RD, and with the 500 RD spent on the CE, you stop farming expert difficulty at 1700 RD. You then farm the goddess difficulty for the rest of the event.

I estimate that you will get 1731 RD, and then 6000 D. For 5900 D you can get: the 500 D CE, all of the 4* EXP, half of the Fous, all of the Hearts, Feathers, and Pages, and half of the monuments. And you will be at 11 AP, giving you a little wiggle room.

Hopefully I did the calculations right. And this also depends on the drop rates being accurate as projected.

I see, thanks for your calculation. Right now I'm experiencing all kinds of hell in FGO. ascension mats/skill mats/ embers/ and even AP.. Based on your calculation, I think it is possible to achieve my goal without using apples. Btw, how long will this event last?
