View Full Version : Vacationing on Ship 2?



Arksenth

To all my beloved fans!

Your dear Magical Idol Arksenth is considering moving from Ship 8 to Ship 2!

Mostly because all of my Malay teammates got IPowned

:argh:

Anyway, one of the concerns I have is that it'll be harder to find random parties with JP players for AQs and XQs and so forth. On Ship 8, it's as easy as fuck as long as you toss in a "Yorodesu" because everyone assumes that you're not a foreigner, and they don't care anyway. But I imagine on Ship 2, English players have a bad rep?

Tell me how much you all love me!

Easy to find parties, but games are passworded on Ship 2 unlike other ships, to keep foreigners out. You'll need a decent knowledge of Kanji to get into a lot of games.

Arksenth

Most of the endgame parties tend to be full of maxed out players with 5s top-tier gear here - can I expect that of the endgame EN community or do they suck?

Ship #2 badness is overrated tbh. We had more Japanese players in the past but they left when they heard about the 2 damn hackers that are not even regular PSO2 players.

But Ship #2 English community is one of the nicest of many MMOs. There's great players and bad players. B20 is the unofficial TA's block and it's slowly also becoming a AQ block.

Japanese players concentrate mostly on the Vita blocks randomly many times in 210+ and sometime in 209 and rarely in 208.

Its pretty easy to find random jp partys for those things, from what I hear from teammates anyway

Chdata
Jun 1, 2014, 12:35 AM
Yeah, expect everyone to be leveling their 50/30 characters in tower defense.

I think you once posted how easy TD was because everyone is level 70 vs an EQ that's level 65 and everything gets one shotted?

Nope. Expect to see wave one going as far as red text when you're unlucky.

And don't even bother playing for drops during English hours, from my experience in random MPAs, they are always much slower. I was in an MPA where a completely normal ragne took 5 minutes in W&R, with two rangers there.

But that's EQ.

For shaq and TA, yeah you can find parties.

For SHAQ, if you have good gear, and know what to do, you can try and join one of the regular "elite" team on B226, but might take a few asking to get them to add you as friend to regular SHAQ with them.

.Jack
Jun 1, 2014, 12:39 AM
Just head to b226 vita if you want to join a random JP AQ party, half of them are going to have a JP password. For XQ's just join any random 80+ member team and start a team party.

-sparkles prettily-

Anyway, Ship 2 sounds awful. What do you do for EQs so they don't autofail - is it all premade 12 man parties?

Chdata
Jun 1, 2014, 12:41 AM
Yep, join a team that does that and you should be fine.

Other than that, hope the EQ is during peak JP hours.

Edson Drake
Jun 1, 2014, 12:42 AM
There are pretty well-geared players around too. I see lots of expensive gear around.

I think you're going to mix in well with the folks at B20(I mean that with all due respect, many people hate B20 with a passion), they'd like more people to hang around, since it seems most of the people that used to make the place interesting, for some reason left.

Lots of a japanese parties too, it seems that the ones that hate us left ship 2 anyway so that the ones that are still in, at least like to play with foreigners, as long as you behave.

I'm not sure where Ship 2 is terrible at EQ come from, but TD2, I don't think other ship is really doing better, as Sega is now tweaking to make it easier.
All other EQ, I've had no problem with it.

True, but at Least you can try it out and see how it's like on a quieter ship. Who knows? Maybe you'll like it. I may also have to implement that you cannot use default character designs, meaning you must spend some effort in creating the new character.

Economy is actually pretty good if you have enough meseta to manipulate the market. A couple of days ago I wanted to sell my 10% ability boost items. Shit! They dropped to 40k! So I just bought all the stuff to get the price to 70k and make profit. Works like this with fodder as well, though booster items sell very quickly.

All other EQ, I've had no problem with it.

Have you ACTUALLY TRIED doing an EQ during US afternoon hours? It's literally 2 people with decent levels and no gear, and 10 others 15 levels below and no gear, mashing Shunka and Il Megid and basically staring at the floor most of the time. For every EQ, not just TD2.

It's the reason I refuse to do certain EQs from 2pm-12am, because the vast majority of Ship 2 non-JP pugs are facerolling, mouthbreathing fuckwits.

By "we" I did not mean to imply you and I were on the same level, of course. Someone so bereft of friendship that they would actually consider a transfer is not someone I could lower myself to associate with in public. You know how it is with these things.

I cannot promise anything, but just the slimmest chance of meeting me is more than anyone truly deserves and is reason enough for anyone, especially those like yourself, pitiful enough to be left wanting, to drop their meager possessions and seek me out; as you so obviously intend. It's quite alright to admit it. There is no shame in embracing your love for me. Moving to ship 2 will be all the proof I require of your undying adoration.

I agree, but I would put it more nicely. I havent played in almost 2 years and started to play again. My chars are currently around lvl 55. I had to get used to all this new stuff and EQs. Im playing EQs and im like... why is no body breaking Falz arms? Why is nobody breaking body parts on bosses period? Why it taking long to kill stuff? Why are people dying every 10 secs? I dont think im good at all, especially after 2 years, but if im the most efficient guy at Lvl.55 in an MPA full of lvl.65-70s then our party is going to have issues.

At night time though dang, everyone pwns everything instantly and Falz' fights are over in mins. Best time to do Falz Luther or any other EQ really, you can get lots of runs in. Makes me feel like a noob, I got some catching up to do.

People stopped farming the arms a long time ago and go for speed kills instead by WBing his lower unstretched arm (for meleers I guess?) or core in the first phase.

I guess it depends on what block you're in. All the MPA's I've been so far still go for the arms.

Chdata
Jun 3, 2014, 11:55 PM
From what I see, usually only the first run does, and subsequent character runs do not.

It's likely that the first run contains more of the people who do not bother to do it on more than one char, and more of the WBers who target stretched-out arms.

LordKaiser
Jun 4, 2014, 12:53 AM
On the runs I been people with Elder people still break the arms but their damage output is so big that the Elder dies anyways. Stones are always welcome so I can get trash 10* weapons to trade for cubes. Now on Luther they go for the core.
