in short, they are too many complaints about how hard it is to exchange 13 rares at Xie shop so Sega is planning on a new trade-in that allow player to trade a silver medal to gold medal.

My own opinion : well... damn it! They should done this in the first place.
I just wasted 150 silver on stupid units and 400+ bronze on those cookies :-?.
Shoulda wait for this lllOrz

Not for plebs w/o a Chainsawd or Elder's Pain like me. Me thinks ppl reactions are due to Maximum Attacku being a one of a time event while Ult Lilipa is here to stay so ppl want to make the most out of this 1 month period.

Wonder what the trade in rate will be. 5 silver for 1 gold is my guess. Glad I didn't splurge my silvers on buying units to desynth like I was originally planning. I'll need to be more vigilant about picking badges from the ground though.

I did think it was silly how useless bronze and silver badges were, but it never really crossed my mind to complain about the cost of 13*s. I mean, less work for me I guess, but it still feels wrong somehow.

what does having a chainsawd or elder pain have to do with stone trade ins >_>

funny thing is that currently Silvers are probably the most worthless. At least Bronze can get you triboost cakes which can be somewhat useful.

ZynischQ

Jun 12, 2015, 01:50 PM

I'd estimate rates of maybe 20 silvers to 1 gold, probably no lower than that but probably no higher than 50 to 1.

Poyonche

Jun 12, 2015, 05:05 PM

But you have higher chance to die with Bio if you suck at guarding, so is Bio really stronger than Chainsawd ? (not a sword user here)

You can spam over end and give no fucks against enemies that can punish you with hyper-aggression using their own super-armor frames (mostly ult), so it's kind of a damage gain in the same sense as massive hunter + automate. Cowardly, and comparable to playing with brain atrophy, but effective.

LonelyGaruga

Jun 12, 2015, 05:18 PM

Thing is, you can already do that if you Massive Automate (or even just Automate), which you would be doing in such a situation. So Chainsawd's only really useful if you somehow run out of mates.

I'd argue you're more likely to need Chainsawd's healing by taking longer to eliminate enemies, since it gives a higher chance of getting hit by something if you're spamming Over End or whatnot.

I actually get gold more often than silver, so I hope it's not something like 50 silver for 1 gold.

Even though those 13* are significantly better then anything I'm currently using, I'll be left with the nagging feeling that an Anga or Slave weapon would be even better, which is making me wonder if I should even bother with them.

anga - may rng bless you... like a ton of blessings

slave - that grind is too real (more likely to get anga tbh)

Z-0

Jun 12, 2015, 08:49 PM

You might as well bother with them, because most people only care about the weapon having 13 stars, so nobody is going to play Ultimate for the next month. Unless you can grab people to farm Ultimate with you, there's nothing else you can farm (except Ideal, of course).

The amount of 15 element Slaves in use is ridiculous...

I'm not bothering with them myself, since I'd rather use the time to level up and make meseta, and I'll just end up making Ultimate farms to get Ares, which is what I really want.

Jun 12, 2015, 09:17 PM

I just find it funny that people were bitching about Medal requirements for these weapons when trying to get Slaves or Ideals was worse. At least these start off with 30 Element. XH Runs give 2 Golds on Completion with the chance of them dropping from enemies or Trials. Certainly a lot faster than spamming Lilipa UQ for Stones over and over for a poverty man's 13*.

I once saw a guy using a 15 element slave TD.

very few 15 ele is even ok to use (launcher is just a red scorpio with reversed black heart.. which is better for launcher.. but i wouldnt even touch most of them at 15 ele)

I know that feel. I'm probably lucky(?). I have ares DB, but I need to ele grind them, and this event could be the best option I have, but those damn ele boosters are only going up in price. 9 mil for one.

There's an absurd amount of people that don't realize a decent 11* at 50 ele is better...

I don't think any of them are...

Poyonche

Jun 13, 2015, 03:30 AM

So it would be better that I go Bio Jetboots 50 ele instead of those Slave Jetboots ? :wacko:

Joke apart, I want to get one of those 13*, but I'm afraid that after that, Anga suddenly get generous and give me a 13*.

Afaik Silver only drops from Bosses, Bronze from mobs and you will always get Gold upon clearing with S rank. Silver and Bronze are affected by RDR so you might wanna pop a 250% boost If you're looking for them, I could be wrong tho.

Yes, both bronze and silver that drop from enemies can be boosted using RDR boosts, but i think gold that comes from trial reward are left unaffected.

Come on, even they aren't that stingy. It'll obviously be 99 silver for 1 gold. Funny thing is I wouldn't even be mad at that, being able to skip even 1-2 runs of this seriously repetitive quest would be a blessing. I don't ever want to hear Nyau's voice again.

I seem to get a lot more golds from e-codes while using a 250%, but it could just be luck.

It's not luck. Rare drop boosts do apply to Emergency Code rewards.

Yes and they whined about the least important detail ever.
We get super easily farmable 13* and they complain about the alleged too hard grind.

There are a billion and one things wrong with the game mechanics and another billion with the balance / drops / etc but they pick this out of all the issues.

Jesus!
I've wanted a Chainsawd since it was out (though not enough to hunt myself), thinking it would be awesome.
You mentioning Automate made me realize it ought to work the same and so my bad ping migth very well ruin it.

SEGA chose to address this one, likely because it's a limited time event, and easier to address than making FOs not stupid, re-purposing WB, etc.

" Some RUMOR " says its going to be 7 Silver > 1 Gold
Still, the date is still unknown but it is some times in this month for sure. ( If lucky enough we might probably know it on this Wednesday )

My guess is... due to the latest news ( http://pso2.jp/players/support/measures/?id=6291 ), 12 weapons and 11 units are going to be tradable this July because after investigating Sega find that there is too few users questing with those rares.
So they are trying to give out a rares to everyone right now and thats probably included this 13 Xie weapons too.

Ps. some of 12 rares passes will be give out for free! 3 in total.
Ps2. after bought in 12 rares it will be registered, so you can't sell or trade it again.
The new unbind system won't help you with this.

I find it interesting how no one thinks it'll be 10 Silver for 1 Gold. You know, like how 10 Photon Drops is 1 Photon Crystal, and 10 Photon Crystals is 1 Photon Sphere. 10 Bronze Badges is 1 Silver Badge...
