Hello! I'm Shiloh, nice to meet y'all.
To keep introductions short, I'm a long time fan of the Phantasy Star series. Spent my younger years playing episode I & II a ton, and was a pretty big fan of PSU. I was sad to see it go. All is well though, I have this awesome new sequel to play, but I'm lost in most directions, and I need a ton of advice. I thank any of you able to see this post through to the end.
1) I suppose a good place to start is with my job set up. I'm currently running as a Hunter/Force, looking to sub class as a Techer. Now my first question is: Is running a Hunter/Techer combination worth while in terms of combat efficiency, and synergy? Truthfully the answer(s) won't affect my goal, because I'm dead set on that as my primary focus. Also how does Braver/Techer sound, any good? I really wanted to delve more into that now that I've tried the new class briefly.
2) As a Hunter, primarily, I'm assuming its worth it to reach out for more of the defensive skills in the tree, yes? There are so many branches though. Would I have enough points to keep a healthy balance between an Iron Wall, and a Glass Cannon?
3) Would anyone be able to explain to me what some of the skills/terms do/are in the skill tree, such as: What is a "Just Attack"? And what exactly is the purpose of Step attack. Is Just Guard as valuable as I think it is?
4) Should I worry about how much damage I'm doing yet? I suppose It wouldn't truly matter until later levels in appropriate gear. I like to think as long as I can clear the hard mode bosses, and other obstacles that I'm fine.
5) Enough about my character, I have questions about that new Crafting feature. So I know literally nothing about it, and after skimming through menu's, I've noticed that the weapon extensions have preset values, and as the rarity goes up, the hard value of attack goes down. My first question: does the lower initial value suggest it has better grind scaling?
6) Now, I notice you can commission another player to craft something for you, so this leads me to ask: Is there any point in me going through the process myself?
7) Maybe a question about some of the more exclusive features of the game. Do any of you actually pay for the game? Like purchase arks cash or the premium membership? I really like the game, and depending on pricing, I might be willing to sink a little money into it.
I think thats all I have for now, but I'm sure I'll come up with plenty more. Thanks if you have anything to contribute.
