Depends on what you're looking for out of it. Buster is really a Master of None for pretty much the entire game until it passes Lv. 150, after which it starts getting Burst skills that capitalize on the Burst Gauge. I personally think it's "okay", but it doesn't hold a candle to a specialized class in terms of ability.Quote:

oops double posted. ignore this
I'm basically wondering if playing a buster would make it more difficult to clear SH and XH missions compared to if i played a hunter/ranger. I like the ability to use all three types, but i can live without that if it means I can clear SH missions easier.Quote:

I personally find you're better specialising and then using a skill board with a weapon unlock for particular enemies/bosses rather than playing Buster -- for example I play Hunter and have a Rifle unlock on my 3rd skill board for enemies such as the Toas series.
Also all classes get the Burst Mastery skill at 151, so I don't think Buster really ever outshines the others.
For the core refinery, the 500 GE option mashes cores together to upgrade them into better ones. For example, you combine 3 Power IVs together to make a Power V. Note that all refines create small cores, meaning that you can only use them for attach parts.
The 20K GE option allows you to transfer any latent onto an attach part, meaning you don't need the materials to create another attach part. Just create a cheap one with say... a Power I, then spend the GE to transfer Power V onto it, instead of needing to hunt Super materials.
Everything is 100% like the rest of the game as well at the refinery, so don't worry about any RNG.
Note that once you get level 151+, the Final Crew have a couple of Crew members known as "Core Refinery Chiefs", and if you place one of those onto the Core Refinery, you'll be able to make even better latents. For example, 3x Power V will turn into Power VI instead of Shoot V.
Thanks!!! you guys have been very helpful!!! :DQuote:

Alternates. Works this way in PSO2 as well.Quote:

Side note, but if you haven't already done so, I recommend getting a Shield Unit with Element Resist so you only need one Attachment to hit 100% resistance. This makes those Quests much, much easier (and lets you tank through certain attacks, to boot).Quote:

Note that I have not actually tested this, so take it with a grain of salt.
Yeah i've been trying to make the elemental resist armors but i don't have the materials or the cores to make them. I's working towards making all the element armors but not knowing japanese makes it hard to figure out where to get stuff. I noticed that i can activate the ranger skills from skill board 2 and switch back to my sword weapon that is linked to skill board 1. the skill seems to still be activated normally but i'm not sure if the stat boost is working. Guess i'll try getting force to 101 and see if the fire weapon element will work. been stuck on the quest where i have to use water element weapons and fire resistance armor and the boss has a timer of 20 mins.
I have tested activating fire element weapon on a weapon that is linked to a skill board 2 and have switched back to a weapon linked to skill board 1. The effect stays and lets me hurt the fire weak monster. this is really good in case anyone else is in need for a certain element. worth training force to 120 for all 6 elements given the fact that the skills also increase all damage by 30%.
