All New Units in Update 22

Update 22 introduces four incredible new units that are completely changing the meta. Let me break down each one for you:

🏆 Gilgamesh (The Strongest King) – Guardian Type

Gilgamesh stands out as one of the most powerful units introduced in this update. As a Guardian-type unit, he excels in dealing massive damage, especially in the late game stages. What makes Gilgamesh particularly special is his ability to dominate waves 40+ when other units start to fall off.

How to Obtain: Fate X 02 event drops Best Use Case: Late-game wave clearing and boss fights Rarity: Extremely rare (0.01% drop rate)

⚔️ Saber (The Second Alter) – Heaven Type

Saber brings perfect balance to your team composition. As a Heaven-type unit, she offers incredible versatility with strong evolution potential. Whether you need single-target damage or wave control, Saber delivers consistently.

How to Obtain: Fate event rewards Best Use Case: All-around performance, evolution-focused builds Rarity: Rare (1% drop rate)

🤖 Zero Two (Strelizia Apus) – Guardian Type

The mecha-style Zero Two unit brings heavy damage output to the battlefield. Her unique design and powerful attacks make her a fan favorite, though obtaining her requires serious dedication to the Fate X 02 event.

How to Obtain: Fate X 02 event (very rare drop) Best Use Case: Area damage and wave clearing Rarity: Very rare (1% drop rate)

💎 Zero Two (Code Zero 002) – Secret Type

This is the crown jewel of Update 22 – the rarest unit with an extremely low drop rate. Code Zero 002 is designed specifically for collectors and endgame players who want the absolute best. If you manage to obtain this unit, you’re truly among the elite.

Fate X Zero Two Event Complete Guide

The Fate X 02 event is the heart of Update 22, introducing a challenging 50-wave game mode with revolutionary mechanics. After spending dozens of hours testing different strategies, I’m here to share everything you need to know.

Core Features:

50 Total Waves: Progressively harder with unique boss encounters
Gate System: New mechanic where you must destroy gates to unlock new paths
Three Game Modes: Each with different reward pools and difficulty levels

Saber Event	x10,000 Golden Chalice Coins	Aegis of Morgan (1%), Excalibur Morgan (1%)

Pro Farming Strategies

Based on my extensive testing, here are the most effective strategies for each event mode:

For Zero Two Event:

Use high-damage AOE units like Sukuna (Heian) if you have him
Focus on gate destruction first to unlock additional paths
Save your strongest abilities for waves 40-50
Consider farming in groups for faster clears

For Gilgamesh Event:

Nuke units are essential here – Sukuna or any optimal nuke from the AG Discord tier list
Wave 1 is crucial – use your strongest setup to establish momentum
Golden Chalice Coins accumulate quickly, so focus on efficiency

For Saber Event:

Balanced team composition works best
Evolution items (Aegis of Morgan, Excalibur Morgan) are worth the grind
Consider this mode for consistent progression
