i cant be arsed to run any of this again besides Super PI, the rates are ass, will stay ass, no thanks again, pretty much ran enough to get what i needed. 14*'s dont exist so its not worth the time sink AGAIN, they may as well keep this as a perma boost rotation WITH 14* drops if they even want it active outside 100% day/week/Raid time

oh and remove the HP boost in UQs so it makes grinding faster, not that it isnt already fast now

[Dragwind]

This could end up leading to a potentially good birthday... maybic.

[isCasted]

Can't be arsed to give a shit about drop rates. ATK and HP boosts are more than welcome.

oh and remove the HP boost in UQs so it makes grinding faster, not that it isnt already fast nowWhat a casual

[cheapgunner]

Well, Ultimate Amuduscia and Nab will be on my schedule this week. Does the boost week include gathering too?

[final_attack]

Oh, looking forward for Elder duo, for sure :D

[Flaoc]

honestly ult is snooze inducing so more atk and hp for the mobs is meh.. counter intuitive for farming out the shit rates however the atk and hp buff is more than welcome on raid bosses like eluther

[Chigun]

...I don't know who you're playing with, but things are dying quickly even with the HP boost. It feels about the same speed as back when Lilipa UQ was new (assuming one played in the premium blocks). Comparing how hard 13* drops used to be, the slaves are practically being given out like candy. And 14* may as well not exist, because you or I aren't getting one in 10 trillion years.

KEEP THESE RATES.

What a casual
*yawn* when you can solo Leone and finish before the other 11 finish up with Leopard let me know buddy. You have solo'd XH Dragon already right? right??

Umm if Slaves were really dropping like candy, you would notice that the drop records would show these above 2-3k this past week which even then given the extra 100% for 300% RDR, theyre below 1k outside GS/Tacts. 14*'s are roughly the average amount.

as for the 14*'s, ya, like most still havent had one drop yet and I dont consider Atra as a "first" 14* either.

we can only hope they get the idea and keep a rotation


after farming these UQ's for 6-8hrs a day upon their initial campaigns, I dont think ill be touching these again unless im really bored. rates are bad in general and the only ppl not agreeing with these of course are lucky "run for one hour get drop" type. I understand the whole CF vs Drop debate but I guess it could be worse and be something like once a week rates like some other games

[Maninbluejumpsuit]

I see no mention of specifically boosted droprates for nemesis/slave. What's the deal?

[echofaith]

I have enough nemesis fodders from last time, so I will just randomly leech a few stones in nab this week U:

I was being facetious, hoping you'd show at least some signs of self-awareness. Dunno why I bothered.

It's best to not expect self-awareness out of an online forum. That way you don't be horribly disappointed with 90% of the posters.

Nobody forces you to put up with mindless grind for hours. Nobody forces you to not put more mind into your grind yourself.

what are MMOs for 200 plz

[isCasted]

Nobody forces you to play MMOs. If you consider grind a core mechanic of the game (which is getting less and less true with newer games, actually) AND THEN you call it painful and wish to reduce it, why the fuck would you subject yourself to such torture?

[TheFanaticViper]

I did only 2 runs of Ult Nab, just for fun, around 1 hour for each run, got Weila Bode and Nemesis Sword (both during the same PSE burst) !

[Kondibon]

what are MMOs for 200 plzThis actually explains a lot about your attitude in regards to player progression. You don't seem to care about the game, just the progress.

[ralf542]

Just make you own party. Problem solved.

MMOs are for people who like to play exclusively with their friends and dont like to pgl. This is what I learned in FFXIV.

you realize games begin to reduce "grinding" because of your average player these days right? whether you like it or not its the casual player base for this reason and because of it youve gotten used to getting these treatments over the years expecting every other game to follow suit. Grinds a grind, you want good gear, skins etc you gotta grind for it.... or bring out that bank card friendo.

i care a lot about the game, you of all people know i complain about content etc all the time because we know Sega could do so much better but its never going to happen. I can voice so much in the player surveys but its gotta be something a lot of people bring up to get their attention, not just some random guys thought. Theres so much i want Sega to do but it wont happen and in the end its all about making money versus good consistent content and like you said, player progression.

Lol same but no PSE required XD Just played out of boredome and got JB (playing Hr) and Talis!!! (playing Bo/Fi...) :3 Both in less than 2hrs with simple rdb...

[SPOILER-BOX]also never used ziegs exchange so far but I can technically get exchange for Talis but does it mean I have to get a max ele OT talis from stone exchange first?[/SPOILER-BOX]

Ran Dragon eq many times with timed, rdb, tri 150/125, party boost , karaage and stick got fucking nothing! Stopped using bunch of boost for nothing (just rdb 250) got 2 val drops *facedesk*
Go figure @_@

...and we're back to square one. Your sheer incapability of seeing and addressing an argument is astonishing.

You are, once again, complaining that ebil casuls are reducing your grind. Grind that you don't like, because you want ebil casuls to git gud so your grind wouldn't be as shitty.

You claim that grind is a necessity for games, despite there being thousand of games that don't have any grind for anything whatsoever (pretty much every old-school non-RPG), and thousands of games where grind isn't mandatory at all. PSO2 is one of those games where it's not mandatory, because welfare equipment allows you to S-Rank even the hardest content (provided everyone involved is skilled enough). You only really need to start grinding for weapons if you want to experiment with things like soloing/duoing shit that's balanced around 12 players (which you, apparently, are not into), time-attacking EQs with organized groups or mitigating lack of skill for regular content. If you are in the latter camp, I have some news for you: giving monkey a katana doesn't make it into a ninja. A small-ass damage increase of Nemesis-NT over, say, Astra makes zero fucking difference if you aren't trying to do things like solo Amduscia UQ. If you aren't at that level (which nobody forces you to be, btw) you're far better off just gitting fucking gud, m8.

Even getting money for cosmetics in this game is either about RNG luck and/or killing enemies that are far below your level. Whether you deal 10000 or 3000000 damage per hit enemies that have 4000 HP will die in 1 hit all the same.

Because I'm right, people say they hate to grind for good gear but its the only way, whats so hard about gearing yourself and getting better at the game to reduce said grind and kill at a much faster rate so that ya, RNG, may be on your side or not and make what time you put in worth it. 10minutes to kill Anga in any UQ shouldnt even be a thing for 12 people but hey, i cant control the weapon rotation otherwise it would go by quicker otherwise we're stuck with 8-10 HR's that have every wep resisted because "muh playstyle" and we're forced to rely on the other people hopefully can dish out some nice DPS. I mean most people dont carry a GS unless its their Vroalet etc i dont need to go about this either because "muh organized" runs is obvious answer and w/e "cater to how you want people to play", again, i cant nor do i want to control people about this. Just use some common sense on whats best for the situation on the fight.

wow just how long have you been under that rock that you dont notice this in games still coming out today by AAA publishers? dont be igorant man


PSO2 is one of those games where it's not mandatory, because welfare equipment allows you to S-Rank even the hardest content (provided everyone involved is skilled enough).
to an extent yes but as you said, skill which well you know how it is (i think)


You only really need to start grinding for weapons if you want to experiment with things like soloing/duoing shit that's balanced around 12 players (which you, apparently, are not into)
just what, so a new player doesnt need to grind for gear? even for end game content? holy hell dont be stupid.

I've never said I wasnt into Solo or Duo'ing EQ's in this game which I have, I just never post screenshots or videos to PSOW because I never felt the need to nor do I feel people care about them. It's a reason why I ask how people struggle with things like Phaleg because for some reason people still havent beaten her.

the jump from Nem NT to Atra Sword is very minimal, you would be smart to get Nem and gear elsewhere with Atra if you really needed or just do what you feel. Your comparison though holds no value though


Even getting money for cosmetics in this game is either about RNG luck and/or killing enemies that are far below your level. Whether you deal 10000 or 3000000 damage per hit enemies that have 4000 HP will die in 1 hit all the same.
There are plenty of resources that dont exactly rely on RNG or farming continuous hours for making meseta, people just dont utilize everything or just flat out lazy OR just not enough time and weekly TA+XQ is enough for them. But whatever speeds up the process is obviously the better choice aka good gear and knowledge about what to go after.


You either skipped over all this or w/e, your a triggered casual is all I'm getting from you. Mods will clean my posts etc so ya it feels like a waste of time even writing this post. However, this game's 'grind' is aimed at the working japanese adult (or adults in general), with better equipment being for people willing to put the time in for it. You have to grind at your IRL job, is this how you get after working 1 month somewhere that if you aren't manager etc then you should just up and leave? If you didnt already realize it, your playing a mobile based game, thats how casual this game is. It's what separates my 4min PD solo versus your just enough to get S rank timing.

You can grind for hours beyond anything in an MMO playing an FPS or RTS for skins or heros but by all means, this shouldnt be a thing in MMO's woah buddy

[isCasted]

Yup, you're just circling around my points without actually addressing them, pretending I didn't say things that I did (or reinterpreting them as you see fit) just so you could appear like a smartass, and you're absolutely keen on labeling me a "casual" thinking that it somehow makes you superior (or even makes sense at all).

stay mad :wacko:

[Dragwind]

So about these missions and their boosted/added drops

Seriously, let's keep it on topic folks.

[Flatflyer]

How minimal a damage increase would qliph to Nem NT be, anyways?

I managed to get myself a +35 Nem NT WL from some lucky boost nab grinding and am considering investing into it over my (roughly) 150 affixed qliph WL, but I'm not sure if it'd be worth even though I spent like 20 hours in nab trying to get it.

Nem isn't a huge step over Qliphad. If I could pick one for free I would go with Nem for the tiny damage increase and PP reduction, but investing in one when you have an affixed Qliphad isn't going to give you a huge return on investment.

You see that bow? that's me.

[Saffran]

I've done a few boosted Elther but none of what it dropped had any soul on it. Vinculum, yes, but no soul. Did Sega make this intentional?

[Arada]

It's been like that since day 1. No souls in Profound Invasion.

eluther has been like that since it released years ago.

[Saffran]

Oh. I generally cube whatever drops, but lately I have been sifting through the loot in the hope of some Elder or Luther 5 and 6 slots. I guess that decision makes sense.
