Choco Coin of Rider Farming Guide
The Choco Coin of Rider probably the most sought out Choco Coin. Not really because of the waifu factor but, for the fact that majority of the Rider class servants are female and are part of the event! There’s Medusa, Boudica and Ushiwakamaru. Then, if players have either Marie Antoinette, Anne Bonny & Mary Read, and/or Saint Martha, that’s an additional 150 for each if one has only one or the other. And if players managed to roll Francis Drake, that’s another 150 Choco Coins to add. Put them all together, you have to farm around 900 Choco Coin of Riders just to complete them all. This is assuming you actually have all five Rider class servants for the event. It can go lower, depending on who you have in your roster.
But it’s alright, there’s no need to panic. There are some ways to easily farm the 900 Choco Coins for Rider! Here are some fool-proof tips for the idea!
Tips and Tricks: Choco Coin of Rider Farming Guide
When farming Choco Coin of Riders, the first thing you need to have is a good set of Assassins. After all, from class affinity alone, Assassin < Rider. If you have a good set of Assassins then, that’s at least accomplishing the first part of the equation.

Best Servant for Farming: Jack the Ripper
Jack the Ripper is, arguably, the best servant for this kind of farming. Why? Jack‘s noble phantasm, Maria the Ripper, deals extra damage to Female enemies. And what are majority of the Rider class servants? Female. Especially if Jack‘s Noble Phantasm is placed farther back in the NP chain, it’ll boost the damage she does to Female enemies. And since the last boss for the Choco Coin Gathering Bitter: Rider is Francis Drake, Jack the Ripper will definitely keep her in check before she fires her Golden Wildhunt at you.
Stack the Melty Sweetheart CE
The Melty Sweetheart CE will be your best friend here. For starters, don’t LB (Limit Break) it first. While it is tempting to increase the stats, it’s better to have it scattered among your servants. Doing so will distribute the event effect of the Melty Sweetheart Craft Essence, making it easier for you to farm. However, farming for the Melty Sweetheart Craft Essence might take awhile as the amount of Baking Chocolates increase the more you buy the Melty Sweetheart Craft essence.
In fact, once you’ve stacked up enough Melty Sweetheart CE, you can try farming the lower levels since this makes up for majority of the drops.

Use Rider Craft Essences
Once you’ve gained enough coins, you’ll be able to unlock the craft essences of certain servants. As of now, the only available servants for the FGO Valentines Event include: Ushiwakamaru, Santa Alter, Medusa, Saint Martha, Marie Antoinette, Boudica, Anne Bonny & Mary Read, and Francis Drake.
Ushiwakamaru | Santa Alter | Medusa | Anne Bonny & Mary Read |
Saint Martha | Marie Antoinette | Francis Drake | Boudica |
As previously mentioned, each of their craft essences cost at least 150 Choco Coin of Rider. However, if you get one, you’ll be able to add +2 to the sum total of additional Choco Coin Rider. For example:
Choco Coin of Rider x 2 (+2)
= 4 Choco Coin of Rider
Lucky for us, the effects stack so the more you combine the better. And it helps the Melty Sweetheart Craft essence as well! Since the Melty Sweetheart Craft Essence is an additional +2, you can stack it on top of the Rider Craft Essence to get an additional +2 per Melty Sweetheart Craft Essence added.
Melty Sweetheart Craft Essence = +2 on ALL COINS
Choco Coin of Rider x 2 (+2 +2)
Choco Coin of Rider x 2 (+4)
= 2 + 4
= 6 Choco Coin of Rider
With that, gaining Choco Coins gets easier the more Rider Craft Essences you get. Below are the available craft essence for the Valentines 2018 Event.
Mug Bonbon | Royal White Steed | Homemade Cookies and Object X |
Treasure Chocolate |
Victory Rose | Brand Chocolate | Christmas Memory | Grand Blade Usumidori |
Note for Supports: Equip your Rider Craft Essences on Assassin Class Servants
Now, remember that Assassin class servants have a big advantage here over Rider class servants. If you equip them onto your Assassin class servants in your support list, you’re more bound to get Friend Points. And more Friend Points mean more chances of kicking up your pity counter for the RNG to fall in your favour.
Choco Coin Gathering: Expert or Bitter?
Now, if the Baking Chocolate’s still too hard to farm, the next best thing would be farming the coins directly. However, one issue is that fighting against Rider class servants can be annoying especially if your servants don’t reach the level requirement. So, the next thing would be to farm the quest that fits to one’s level. Forcing it would be forcing you to use the Command Spells just so you can resurrect the servants you sacrificed for those coins. Depending on the level, choose a quest that one can complete comfortably. Despite over-all, the Bitter level drops a whole lot more.
