Weapon Rank S2?

[Fox_Makenshi]

I'm wondering if the new highest rank weapons in AoI will be S2 instead of S. I heard that in AoI the weapon stars will go up to 15 so think about it. Each rank consists of 3 *'s of weapons. Ex:

C=1-3*
B=4-6*
A=7-9*
S=10-12*
S2=13-15* (theoretically)

I'm pretty sure the game just handles those as S...

Didn't PSO have weapons that went "over the limit"?

I dunno about putting them into another class though....

Well I was just wondering since each rank that we already have only consists of 3 *'s It was just a thought though. You are right though that it wouldn't make sense to make another rank.

I dunno, I think they probably should do something like that. Otherwise, being limited to A-Rank will knock you down to 9*s whereas the S-Ranks are up to 15*! I think S-Rank for up to 12 and then S2 beyond that would work well. Give S2-rank to the specialists of each weapon type, SRank to the average users of it, and A to the classes who don't specialize in it.

Imagine the drop rates on those suckers. =|

AoI has up to S5 in the texture maps.

Don't the classes that specialize in the weapons that fit their play style already have S grade in those weapons? I honestly don't see the need for an additional grade on weapons.


Going by the names of the metal and wood convertion boards, I'd say that they only intend to go up to S grade.

[B] Metal conv. C->B
[B] Metal conv. B->A
[B] Metal conv. A->S
[B] Metal conv. S

[B] Wood conv. C->B
[B] Wood conv. B->A
[B] Wood conv. A->S
[B] Wood convert S

The JP names look the same so it's not like SoA screwed something up on them http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

No matter, we can't even find 10* shit as it is. If they don't change the rates, no one will ever see anything higher than 12.

Scary part is Artea is right, life will go on without much change, one person out of 10,000 will find the 15* item and try and sell it for something like 100 million meseta. Nothing's gonna change unless drops rates are increased first.
