Grinding 13*s Is not nice

[xxmadplayerxx]

So today i finally found a 13* Rifle and to my shock, it cost 190-200k per grind and 3 lambda grinders per grind.

I was all excited about getting a 13* but now the cost to grind them is just ridiculous. Lambda Grinders are not easy to get. If you have 1 character.

Welcome to PSO2.

Levelling up crafting is not nice

[Sizustar]

Use the +7 Grinder to skip to +7 directly.

[Maenara]

Sure, that qualifies as a good solution to the original issue.

[Edson Drake]

That's sad. It's early days of 13* though. I'm pretty sure just like 10* and below got easier to grind over time so 13* will, given enough time that. But yeah, bad model.

Ultimate is fun, but those 13* drop rates and now these grind costs, damn.

[LonelyGaruga]

The grind success rates are really generous though.

Some billion meseta later there might be a cool route found.

I'm glad it's like this or else Ultimate will become nothing with the time if all people have 13* weapons that in my opinion where introduced too soon and worst of all on a single monster.

[Dephinix]

13*s are easier than 11, and I have also never seen any 10* say "Safe" while using a 30% at +7 or higher. 200k seems like a lot, yeah, and full grind reducts soared for a reason, but getting to +10 wasn't so bad, at +18 now, just waiting for more meseta. At +7 it's more than worth it, I have the rifle as well, and +20 zero effort potential can't beat it. I don't know about Sat Cannon Rifles, but, the 13* isn't a one trick pony.

Yeah that's true, it took me like x20 250%s x3 100%s to get one, but then some people first day... and ofc when i least expect it, when i have no boosts on, i get it.

Yup so i hear it would save a lot of meseta, and also another trick is do Zieg CO on each character every week for the crafting reward to trade for lambda grinder.

[Lostbob117]

Does 100% things work on them?

[sol_trigger]

13*s are easier than 11, .


you mad bro

[Dephinix]

you mad bro

A little, lol. As many weapons as I have +20 through +40, as of last week, it does seem a lot harder. I actually spent a lot more money keeping my Helen TMGs at +8 than I did +18 on my 13 star rifle. SEGA logic at it's finest.

[LonelyGaruga]

you mad bro

13* grind rates are more likely to succeed than 11*s. That is fact.

[rashoood]

you're lucky :P I used over 50x 250% rare drop boosts and over 20x 100% triboosts only to get nothing :p

[Dephinix]

I actually got my rifle on a whim without boosts as well. Anga hates all with boosters!

[xxmadplayerxx]

Does 100% things work on them?

Yes if 100% you mean 100% full grind sucess.

I thought what the hay i will try grind it at least 3x to see what its like to grind but failed 3x in a row lol, with +1s

[xxmadplayerxx]

you're lucky :P I used over 50x 250% rare drop boosts and over 20x 100% triboosts only to get nothing :p

Dam, keep trying, don't give up especially on rare boost days, now i have to get another 13* rifle to 60% it..hahaha o dam

[Poyonche]

13* have 50% success rate from +5 to +10

Meanwhile, 10* have 55% at +5 and 30% at +9->+10

[xxmadplayerxx]

Oh yeah, i forgot to add something important or irrelevant i really don't know what to think.

When i grind the 13* it Gave me ownership rights to the weapon making it bound to the owner. I don't understand sega's logic there, we can't sell 13*s anyway and i assume it would be a long long time till we can.

[Xaelouse]

It's a method of turning them into money sinks (and for unfortunate players, even excube sinks)

That's already known when 13* was first shown.

Yes it was, i was mentioning it again.

[Poyonche]

Well PSO2 is a SEGA's game, so don't look for logic in that game. :v

[TaigaUC]

Even if 13 stars had crappy grinding rates, they're still powerful and usable at any point.
Other weapons aren't really worth using until you max them out.

[nathanielzor]

As many other people have said.

>grind skip 7
>grind success +30%

It's super easy, and cheap. Mine went straight to +10 without any fails. The only problem is buying 20 costumes for grind skips.

[Macman]

To be honest I'm more interested in the 12* rifle than 13*.

Too bad Rockbears never spawn...

[vaerix]

Was wondering why a lot of costumes suddenly disappeared..

Yeah which i worked it out to be like Approx 22mil to 40+ one. And that's not including affixing....

[LordKaiser]

Grind skip +7... Do you guys really want to waste 20 AC items on that?

[Xaeris]

AC fodder goes for about 200k currently so a Grind Skip costs 4m. It'll probably drop a little tomorrow given a new scratch, but let's just go with that for now. Grinding a 13* costs just shy of 200k so getting to +7 will run you 1.4m, bare minimum. Add in the risk of failure and the risk of losing multiple grinds in one failure and yes, a Grind Skip becomes a no brainer.

You mean 4 mil :P + with grind skips 7s we don't have to use up all our precious lambda grinders .

[Xaeris]

Oops, my fingers derped. Fixed.

^^ well tbh i don't mind paying that much, 13* weps are the best in the game in terms of damage right now, no 11* or 12* can match or beat it.

Overall, how much money did you spend and how many cubes did you use?

How did you got those 100% grind success rate ? D:

Edit : I mean where did you get those 3 100% grind success rate, I had only one that I used for a 12* because I was getting bored to fail +9 -> +10 :3

[HIT0SHI]

I haven't a single 100% Grind Success Rate that SEGA has given us in some special occasions. I currently have 4 as of now.

[Z-0]

Only place the 100% grind success items are given out are the Netcafe TA competitions they sometimes hold, but otherwise it has to come from campaigns or compensation.
