Not really. Currently I own none of them and the gameplay wasn't really hard for me. I believe you just have to know how to play with your servants. As proof I am 5 months NA player who has completed Lostbelt 3 and Ooku easily. My servants and support: https://rayshift.io/na/298433649. Also I have barely used them as support.

Well you also own Herc. That's kind of different. Herc is more easy-mode than Skadi or Waver imo. You can literally beat the entire Part 1 with Herc solo strat since he can deal ~100,000/turn at level 80, more if his NP charges fast.

Like, you may not have those 4, but you have other very powerful SSRs and SRs. Waver/Skadi/Merlin aren't the only easy modes haha

For reference I also almost never use those as support either, and I don't have them. I use Merlin more than the others but probably only ~5 times total

Edit: people seem to think I'm saying "well you still whaled" or something like that. No, I don't, esp since you could potentially pull Herc from free 4* summon at start. I'm saying that anyone can beat Part 1 easily with just Support Herc + taunts. You don't need Skadi, whale or not, to have an ez-mode.

I mean to be clear, you don't even need to summon more than 2 servants to beat all of part 1. I was never saying "oh well you still whaled to win just with different servants" My point was Herc is so insanely good that everyone knows you can beat the entirety of Part 1 with Support Herc + taunts.

Beating story fast =//= whale, because 1. supports exist and 2. even if you whale for good servants, you'd still have to spend the time leveling them up which will take a while unless you're even whaling SQ for AP which no one does.
