There are several Servant categories in FGO, but it is possible for a character to form part of 2 categories, such as Rider and Lancer.
Overview
Fate/Grand Order (FGO) is an exciting mobile game in which players can enjoy strategic role-playing elements. You can assume the role of a Master who summons and controls powerful characters called Servants, to fight enemies in turn-based battles.
When you first start playing the game, you will only have a few Servants in your collection, but you can acquire more as you advance in the game. Servants are generally historical, mythological, and literary figures from various cultures. You can create a team made up of 6 Servants before every battle, where 3 characters serve as active members, and the others are reserve members.
Why are Servants important?
There are currently over 20 different Servants in the game, each of which feature unique skills and abilities that will help you defeat enemies. Characters are a crucial part of the game, as you would not be able to play the game without them. It can be said that your Servants need you just as much as you need them.
Furthermore, you will not be able to participate in events or activities without a Servant in your collection. This also means that you cannot complete quests or participate in battles. Consequently, you will not progress in the game.
Fate/ Grand Order: Caenis
All the Servants in the game are divided into varying categories, which are determined by their talents, strengths, and characteristics. It is possible that you will find the same Servant in more than one category, but their skills, statistics, and appearances differ. One of the characters that you can find in both the Lancer and Rider category is Caenis.
Although most of their statistics, skills, and appearances are different, they are both rated 4-stars. The following table lists their different statistics:
| Servant | Attack
(minimum/ maximum) |
Health (minimum/ maximum) | Level 100 Grail Attack | Level 120 Grail Attack | Level 100 Grail Health | Level 120 Grail Health |
| Caenis (Lancer) | 1 649 / 9 896 | 1 845 / 11 532 | 11 982 | 14 068 | 13 982 | 16 433 |
| Caenis (Rider) | 1 440 / 9 506 | 1 881 / 10 854 | 10 464 | 14 068 | 14 259 | 16 433 |
How to acquire the different Caenis versions
It is noteworthy that the different versions of Caenis cannot be procured in the same way. The Lancer version can only be unlocked by completing Olympus, the main questline of the game. Once you have unlocked her, you will be able to summon her when you go to the summoning pool.
The Rider version of Caenis, on the other hand, is a limited-time Servant. They are only available during special summoning campaigns. This means that if there are no such campaigns active, you cannot summon the Rider Caenis.
