I’ve been playing Anime Rangers since it first hit the scene, and let me tell you, the Fate Update has completely shaken things up! When I first logged in after the update dropped, I was both excited and overwhelmed by all the new content. After spending countless hours (and I mean COUNTLESS) exploring every nook and cranny of this update, I’ve figured out exactly how to get all the new units. And I’m here to share my secrets with you!
The Fate Update brings characters from the beloved Fate series into the Anime Rangers universe, and they’re absolutely fantastic. From Saber to Archer, these units aren’t just cool they’re game changers. But getting them all? That’s a challenge. I’ve made all the mistakes so you don’t have to, and I’ve compiled everything you need to know in this guide.
Before we dive into getting specific units, I want to make sure you understand how this update works. The Fate Update introduced several new mechanics that are crucial for unit acquisition:
I was confused at first, but the Holy Grail War System is actually pretty straightforward once you get the hang of it. It’s a special event mode where you compete against other players to earn Holy Grail Fragments. These fragments are essential for summoning Fate units.
Here’s a quick breakdown of how it works:
Holy Grail War Tier | Fragments Needed | Rewards |
---|---|---|
Bronze | 50 | Common Fate Shard |
Silver | 100 | Rare Fate Shard + 500 Gems |
Gold | 200 | Epic Fate Shard + 1000 Gems |
Platinum | 500 | Legendary Fate Shard + 2000 Gems |
Diamond | 1000 | Guaranteed Fate Unit + 5000 Gems |
I learned the hard way that saving up for Diamond tier is usually worth it, but we’ll talk more about strategy later.
Command Spells are a new resource introduced in the Fate Update. You can earn them through daily quests, special events, and by completing story chapters. These spells are used to summon Fate units, and they come in three types:
I made the mistake of using my Command Spells as soon as I got them, but trust me, it’s better to save up for specific units you want. We’ll get into that in the strategy section.
Now that we’ve covered the basics, let’s get into the meat of this guide how to actually get all the new Fate units. I’ve broken this down by unit rarity and class to make it easier to follow.
These are the easiest Fate units to obtain, and they’re a great starting point for building your Fate team.
E-Rank units are the most common and can be obtained through:
Here’s a table of all E-Rank Fate units and how to get them:
Unit Name | Class | Best Acquisition Method | My Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Assassin Sasaki | Assassin | Daily Login | Surprisingly good DPS for an E-Rank |
Caster Medea | Caster | Story Chapter 1 | Essential for early game progression |
Rider Medusa | Rider | Bronze Holy Grail War | Great mobility, saved me in several tough battles |
I found that focusing on getting these E-Rank units first really helped me progress through the new content. They might not be the flashiest units, but they’re reliable and easy to upgrade.
Rare Fate units are a step up from common ones, and they require a bit more effort to obtain.
D-Rank units can be obtained through:
Here’s a table of D-Rank Fate units:
Unit Name | Class | Best Acquisition Method | My Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Archer Emiya | Archer | Silver Holy Grail War | His Noble Phantasm is incredible for mob clearing |
Lancer Cu Chulainn | Lancer | Special Summoning Banner | Worth the gems if you get him early |
Berserker Heracles | Berserker | Fate Exchange | Tanky as hell, saved me in boss fights |
I spent a good chunk of my first week after the update focusing on Silver Holy Grail Wars, and it paid off big time. I managed to get Archer Emiya on my third try, and he’s been a core part of my team ever since.
Now we’re getting to the good stuff! Epic Fate units are where the real power is at, but they’re also harder to obtain.
Epic Fate units can be obtained through:
Here’s a table of Epic Fate units:
Unit Name | Class | Rank | Best Acquisition Method | My Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Saber Artoria | Saber | B-Rank | Gold Holy Grail War | Absolute beast in PvP, worth the grind |
Gilgamesh | Archer | B-Rank | Limited Time Event | His Noble Phantasm can wipe entire teams |
Iskandar | Rider | C-Rank | Epic Summoning Banner | Great support unit with team buffs |
Hassan-i-Sabbah | Assassin | C-Rank | Fate Exchange | High single target damage, perfect for boss fights |
I can’t stress enough how important these Epic units are. When I finally got Saber Artoria, my entire game changed. I went from struggling in Gold arena to consistently placing in the top 100. The grind is real, but so are the rewards.
These are the crown jewels of the Fate Update. Legendary Fate units are extremely powerful and equally difficult to obtain.
Legendary Fate units can be obtained through:
Here’s a table of Legendary Fate units:
Unit Name | Class | Rank | Best Acquisition Method | My Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Saber Alter | Saber | S-Rank | Diamond Holy Grail War | The single best unit in the update, period |
Archer Gilgamesh | Archer | A-Rank | Legendary Summoning Banner | Game changing Noble Phantasm |
Lancer Scathach | Lancer | A-Rank | Special Raid Boss | Incredible damage and survivability |
Caster Merlin | Caster | S-Rank | Fate Exchange | Best support unit in the game, bar none |
I’ll be honest with you getting these Legendary units took me weeks of dedicated play. I spent way too many late nights grinding Holy Grail Wars and saving up gems, but when I finally pulled Saber Alter, it was all worth it. She’s carried me through content I never thought I’d be able to clear.
Now that you know how to get each unit, let me share some advanced strategies I’ve developed to maximize your chances of getting all the Fate units efficiently.
Gems are the premium currency in Anime Rangers, and managing them effectively is crucial for getting all the Fate units. Here’s my strategy:
Remember those Command Spells I mentioned earlier? Using them strategically is key to getting all the Fate units. Here’s my approach:
Holy Grail Wars are competitive, and placing high requires strategy. Here’s how I consistently place in Platinum and Diamond tiers:
Getting all the Fate units isn’t just about acquisition it’s also about having the resources to upgrade and use them effectively. Here’s my guide to managing your resources.
Fate Shards are essential for upgrading your Fate units, and they come in different rarities just like the units themselves:
Here’s a table of how many shards you need for each upgrade level:
Unit Rank | Level 1→10 | Level 11→20 | Level 21→30 | Level 31→40 | Level 41→50 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
E-Rank | 50 Common | 100 Common | 150 Common | 200 Common | 250 Common |
D-Rank | 50 Rare | 100 Rare | 150 Rare | 200 Rare | 250 Rare |
C-Rank | 50 Epic | 100 Epic | 150 Epic | 200 Epic | 250 Epic |
B-Rank | 100 Epic | 150 Epic | 200 Epic | 250 Epic | 300 Epic |
A-Rank | 50 Legendary | 100 Legendary | 150 Legendary | 200 Legendary | 250 Legendary |
S-Rank | 100 Legendary | 150 Legendary | 200 Legendary | 250 Legendary | 300 Legendary |
I learned the hard way that it’s better to focus on upgrading a few key units rather than spreading your shards thin across many units. My Saber Alter is max level because I committed all my Legendary Shards to her, and she’s an absolute monster in battle.
Gold and experience are basic resources, but managing them efficiently is still important:
Getting all the Fate units is great, but knowing how to use them effectively is what separates good players from great ones. Here’s my guide to building the perfect Fate team.
The Fate Update introduced special synergies between certain units. When these units are on the field together, they get bonus stats and abilities. Here are the key synergies I’ve discovered:
Here’s a table of which units belong to which synergy group:
Unit Name | Series | Three Knights | Fate/Zero | Fate/Stay Night |
---|---|---|---|---|
Saber Artoria | Stay Night | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Saber Alter | Stay Night | ✓ | ✗ | ✓ |
Archer Emiya | Stay Night | ✓ | ✗ | ✓ |
Gilgamesh | Zero/Stay Night | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Lancer Cu Chulainn | Stay Night | ✓ | ✗ | ✓ |
Lancer Diarmuid | Zero | ✓ | ✓ | ✗ |
Rider Medusa | Stay Night | ✗ | ✗ | ✓ |
Rider Iskandar | Zero | ✗ | ✓ | ✗ |
Caster Medea | Stay Night | ✗ | ✗ | ✓ |
Caster Gilles | Zero | ✗ | ✓ | ✗ |
I’ve experimented with all these synergies, and I can tell you that the Fate/Stay Night synergy is by far the most powerful. My team of Saber Alter, Archer Emiya, and Rider Medusa decimates everything in its path.
Synergies are great, but a balanced team is even more important. Here’s my formula for building a balanced Fate team:
This 1-2-1-1 formula has served me well in all game modes, from story to PvP to raids.
I get this question a lot, and the honest answer is: it depends. If you’re a free to play player like me, it took me about two months of consistent play to get all the Fate units. For players who spend money, it could take as little as a couple of weeks. The key is consistency and smart resource management.
This is a tough one because it really depends on your playstyle and current team. However, if I had to choose just one, I’d say Saber Alter is the unit to prioritize. She’s incredibly versatile and powerful in all game modes. After that, I’d recommend Archer Emiya for his amazing mob clearing abilities.
Generally speaking, yes, Fate units are stronger than regular units. They have better stats, more powerful abilities, and unique synergies. That said, some well built regular teams can still compete with Fate teams, especially in the hands of skilled players.
Command Spells can be obtained through daily quests, story chapters, and special events. I’ve found that completing all the Fate story chapters is the most reliable way to get a good number of Command Spells early on.
The fastest way to get Holy Grail Fragments is to participate in Holy Grail Wars. Even if you don’t place high, you’ll still get some fragments. I’ve also found that certain story missions and daily quests give out fragments as rewards, so make sure to check those regularly.
I’ve saved some of my best tips for last. These are the strategies that really set me apart from other players and helped me get all the Fate units faster than I thought possible.
I can’t stress this enough joining an active guild is a game changer. Not only do you get guild bonuses that help with unit acquisition, but you also get access to guild exclusive events and rewards. My guild does daily Holy Grail War runs, and the fragments I’ve earned from these have been instrumental in getting all the Fate units.
Consistency is key in Anime Rangers, especially with a major update like Fate. I set a daily routine for myself that includes:
This routine takes me about an hour each day, and it’s kept me on track to get all the Fate units without burning out.
Before the Fate Update even dropped, I started planning how I would spend my resources. I knew which units I wanted and how I would get them. This planning phase saved me from making impulsive decisions that would have set me back weeks. I recommend making a list of your priority units and a plan for how you’ll acquire each one.
Every so often, the game will have double drop events for specific resources. These events are goldmines for getting Fate units faster. I always make sure to stock up on energy and stamina before these events so I can maximize my gains.
With all the focus on Fate units, it’s easy to neglect your regular units. But I’ve found that having a strong team of regular units is still important, especially for certain game modes and challenges. I make sure to keep my best regular units upgraded and ready for action.
Getting all the new units in the Anime Rangers X Fate Update is no small feat, but with the strategies I’ve shared in this guide, you’ll be well on your way to building the ultimate Fate team. Remember, consistency and smart resource management are key.
I’ve spent countless hours exploring every aspect of this update, and I can honestly say that the Fate units are worth the effort. They’ve completely transformed my gameplay experience, and I’m sure they’ll do the same for you.
So what are you waiting for? Get out there and start collecting those Fate units! And don’t forget to bookmark this guide for easy reference as you progress through the update. I’ll be updating it regularly with new strategies and information as the meta evolves.
Happy hunting, and may the Holy Grail grant you all the Fate units you desire!
