Online Story Rewards?

[KyoRensanu]

Are there any rewards for beating the 2 online story mission with an S-Rank? If there are, what are they? (Please censor spoilers if needed)

I bet you will earn something if you beat Ethan and his stupido lil' friend, atleast I will reward you from that.

[Stixx]

I read somewhere that if you S rank it post level 60 you get 10 PA Fragments...hm...

[ChrisKo]

I read that as well, but that dosent make any sense....

I S-ranked both at 52... why reward me for being 60 and doing it?

Weird.

[Stixx]

Yes, it does seem rather strange. Then again, I wouldn't put it past SEGA >.>

[Lyrise]

The reason why you're getting the rewards at 60 and not 52, is because when you hit 60, the game knows to ramp up the difficulty. When your level is 35-59, the story is played out at A rank difficulty. At 60 and beyond, it's considered S-level. And yes, you will definitely feel this in Story mission 2 when it arrives (word to the wise: if you're planning on beating 2-2 in one shot, either bring tons of guns, or hold back and keep your level at 59).

[ChrisKo]

..... But then you wouldnt get the PA fragments if what you say is correct. 1-59 must = the level 15 monsters and magically when I hit 60 they turn into like 45's, which I have to solo in under 5 minuets to get 10 PA fragments? That makes about as much sense as.... oh wait this is SEGA I understand now.

[Diablohead]

you get 10 fragments because its a worthy reward for what you have to go up against.

[Itsuki]

I've always considered it A-rank at 60+. Kind of looking at it like this:
Lv 1+ C-rank
Lv 35+ B-rank
Lv 60+ A-rank

Either way, until level 60+, you don't really get anything. First time you S-rank at lv 60+ you get 10 PA frags, each time after that, only 1 frag.

EDIT: And for those that never realized it, when you're level 1 to level 34, the monsters there are like level 2.

Well according to Itsuki's chart I did B rank, because I was 52 at the time, and they were 15... so A rank would be what 25. Seems kinda weird.

[Itsuki]

It also depends on the area. Like, I believe the monsters in Episode 2 Chapter 1 at 60+ are 30-35. And in Chapter 2 they in the 35-40 range. I know by Chapter 4, they're 46-47.

[Wheatpenny]

Right now the rewards other than Harisen battle fan parts, fall somewhere between "this sucks" and "total crap" . I do like the story bits though they are nice. I love how Laia insults the Vol Brothers

[ChrisKo]

Cool I guess. Weird that they think 35-59 should fight level 15's for a story mission... I Look forward to 60 then

So what, exacitally, are the PA Fragments for then? Hmmm?

no, you get a really crappy reward of like 200 meseta and like 2 mission points.

Later on, you'll be able to trade them in for "Ultimate" Photon Arts like Tornado Dance or Megid.

Yeah, so start saving up- because some require up to 99 fragments!!!! (cough)
