View Full Version : Most Prominent In Battle mode predictions...

Who do you think will be most dominant in Battle Mode GC PSO? Now that the stats and magic for characters have been changed around, I see less HUcasts owning the whole shit, and other characters having greater chances of running things... like the HUnewearl:
-able to dish out a lot of physical damage thanks to being Hunters
-lv 20 shifta(they have that, right?),
-are able to use a lot of weapons (due to being HUnters again)
-using attack magic at lv 20...burn HUmar, burn!!!
But that's just my opinion
RAmars are just going to pwn by sitting back and sniping everything with more than one leg. Period. End of story.

FOnewearls. Nothing will be able to stop level 30 Foi with an Amplifier of Foi Shield and a Foi-increasing weapon. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I think Forces and HUnewearls will be the best battle mode chars (at least in rules where your level isn't changed)
Between FOnewm, FOnewearl, and HUnewearl I'm not sure who the best will be. HUnewearls big advantage is that she can have level 7 anti, making her the only hunter that can negate a forces high level jellen and zalure. It depends on how much damage techs do, or how effective FOnewearl Megid is (even though its cheap as hell)
In modes where you start at level 1, Maybe HUcaseal and FOnewm I'd guess. I'm not a real big on battle anyways

Really because of the lack of techniques, HUcasts mainly got slaughtered in battle with the exception of Sniper and some other people. I think since techs knock down on the first hit now, HUcasts will have a better chance.

Amen.
Heh. It all depends on the person behind the character. Many people thought that without techniques, HUcasts would be slaughtered... But I held my own http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif, as did others. Forces were supose to be unstoppable... But without Megid... They were easily pwned. Easily... Some even with Megid.
It All depends on the person's style, mind, and technique.
Not to mention experience. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif
But if your going to sum it down to the classes...
Rangers will suck as usual, basically because there hits are too weak to matter.
Forces, with experience and skill, will be able to hold there own, and do pretty well.
Hunters... matters... HUmars will probably fare average as usual, HUnewearls will do... decent... if that. And HUcasts, will either suck horribly, or reign supreme once again.
But.. If YOU suck at battle, being a force isnt going to make you win.

I wonder if FOmars will be good battlers?

Battle mode will be different now that MOST techs knock down. Up to you to find out which techs don't XD.

Forces should be banned from battle mode -_-;;; Megid is ultra cheap.

I prefered battling as a HUcast in v2. With Xenodias, I could pwn the majority of other Hunters, even HUnewarls. I even almost beat a FOnewm in that Battlemania tournament a while back.

remembers her hunewearl making an amazing come from behind win against xenodias =P
i think theres gonna be a bit of a shakeup in battle mode since humars can no longer cast shifta effectively making mechs useless to them

Yeah, your HUnewarl did come back from aways. That was probably the class that generally gave me the most difficulty (non-Forces). http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif
It's going to be close between the Hunter classes and the Force classes. Forget about Rangers, they're useless. Sonic Team haven't really made techs stronger, but monster tech resistance lower. So I'm not sure whether magic will own once again or not. I'm just going to stick with my HUcast for a while.
I did a rule 1 game a couple of days ago, I was a force against 2 forces. They were about 5-10 levels higher than me. I won by 24k points http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif
Depends on the rule. Some classes have the ovious advantage in different rules.
In rule 1 since theres no word on state/matience that makes traps and FO techs more dangerous. If you get frozen your pretty much toast, can't evade any attacks while frozen. So a hard x3 combo = instant death. Ever see a level 30 gibarta fire off in rapid succesion, not to mention is a full range? Heck rabarta goes through walls and hallways. Even if you try to wiggle your way out of ice, cutting your frozen time to half, your still going to take the full brunt of a combo.
Zonde shocks bots and flesh based creatures now.
Since hunters can't s/d and j/z if makes them a bit more balanced when going up against bots.
Although weapon percents better be toned down. 1 hit kills with 45% weapons were too stupid. Then again falling down and casting resta meant for a long and dragged out battle.
I never could see why megid was something to fear? Pop on some dark resist units and you were good to go. 40 dark resist was solid, and 50 resist meant you'd get kill very rarely. When facing a pure megid whore, go for 60 megid resist.
If FOnewman still casts really fast barehanded, then Rule 6 is too his advantage.
Although iam sure alot of the cheap methods to win in rule 1 are still around(S rank special kill).

Thats a good thing, made battle unbalanced.
I guess we'll be seeing alot more Megid Rabarta abusers in battle....Nah, you'll always have your megid abusers. Heck I saw some info that said certain FO races now dominate in certain tech areas. FOnewearl is supposedly best in megid...More FOnewearl megid whores in ep 1&2?...*gasp* Cute little fonewearls slinging piping hot death, square in your grill.
I think FOs are really getting a mighty fine retuning for battle mode.
Castoth
10-14-2002, 06:20 PM
FOs have become way too overpowered now. They already owned Battle mode in v2 but now they have no equal. Even in the normal game, they pwn anything once they get high enough techs and MST. Really, ST should switch the descriptions for Hunters and Forces around now, with Forces being the beginner class and Hunters being the Intermediate to Hard class...oh wait, that's still the Rangers.
Alisha
10-14-2002, 11:04 PM
with state maint gone theres only 1 way left to prefent jellen and zalure
also ramarls and hunes should be good since they can both use shifta and deband whereas humars cant use s/d and ramars cant use j/z

No more state matinence? Urg........

10-15-2002, 01:07 AM
also hunewearls and ramarls both get up to level 20 techs with the exception of anti wich maxes at level 7 for everyone
[edit] just noticed while fooling around in battle offline that in battle techs cost 3x as much as normal........

In rules 2,3 and 6 Formal,Fomar,Humar and Hunewmearl will be the ideal classes for battle. But rule 1 type battles it comes down to who has the best equipment. I might be wrong, ST is releasing the rules 2 and 3 in a few days so we will find out.
One thing is for damn sure, Rangers will be owned no matter what.

This ranger's going to pwn you all.
Rangers were never good at anything positive.
Or at least, I've never seen a ranger good at something besides missing, doing little damage (if they hit), running away, and dying.

10-15-2002, 07:20 AM
Truthfully RAmars can be good in battle. I've been on a team with a hella good RAmar actually, and we owned. It just depends on the person behind the character.....
Rangers suck in battle. There really is no other way to say it.
Have rangers ever really been good at anything? I say we burn em all! *stares down spy*
btw, I still think a HUcast could pwn ANY class one on one in battle 2. Period... As long as he's not a complete n3wb.

Bah. I won hundreds of one on one battles in mode 2. And Never, not once, ever had I lost. And I HIGHLY doubt things will be changed so significantly. Iew. The thought of being beaten by a petty HUnewearl in one on one BA 2 is sickening. Maybe a HUcast... Possibly a FO... but NOT a HUnewearl... Never! They simply don't have the power to combat. And good luck gitting me with your techs... there not powerfull enough to kill me, yet when they are... will it even matter? Unlikley. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif This is the majors your trying to swing with hun. *smacks haterades ass* now run along toots. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
I think I'll just kill you all with the new head shot feature.

maybee in your time oldtimer but things have changed and a good hunewearl would know when facing a hucast not to use techs for dmg

Uhm, Cube... you had shit goin' on in v2. v2 is DEAD now. v2 doesn't have the same stats/features as GC PSO... haven't you been following the reviews? Oh well, I guess I'll have to show you what I mean come US/CAN release... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
Hell, even if I don't own you as a HUne, I'll damn sure own you as a HUcaseal http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif
If you're not careful, you MIGHT even get shot the f*ck up by a RAmarl! Lol!!!
*casts shifta/deband* http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
*zaps Spy's ass with Zonde*
*waves fingers in a 'bring it' fashion*
This should be interesting...
Old timer! grr.
Things havent changed that much..
A HUnew is no match for a HUcast one on one BA 2. Hunews techs are too weak, and so is there power... If anything they can only win if they use their heads... but since when do Hunewearls think? hehe
Alisha
10-15-2002, 05:56 PM
cube hucast aint shit and i'll show you,yeah thats right im callin yer ass out and its only fair that i warn that ivve won 2 rule 2 tourneys with my hunewearl so i know what im doing
2 Rule 2 Tourneys in GC PSO? Impressive... But not enough.
4 Time Rule 2 Tourney champion, in v2, nontheless... I have never, ever been beaten in one on one BA 2. Ever.... I'm not saying I won't ever lose, but what I am saying is that I won't lose to a HUnewearl... ever.
So bring it... I accept ur challenge... hopefully it is some sort of a challenge http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif
You never took on my HUnewearl http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif
It'll be interesting to face a whole bunch of new opponents on GC PSO. That's the thing that got me bored with V2, the number of people left to beat had become zero. Well, anybody that bothers to battle...
I even haxed up lish http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif

I somewhat agree with that. With my HUcast, I rarely ever lost in that rule. Then again, I haven't even played the game in almost a year now so I'll probably suck in BA now.
What are the exact changes in PSO GC battle? And what classes stats have changed to influence battle?
That's it. I will have to head shot you all into oblivion. Eat photon studs suckers.
