    Default April Update: NT Weapons

    http://pso2.jp/players/support/measures/?id=8532

    Experience yet another new experience that no one cares after 4/20 update!
    All old generation weapons will only drop from visphone shop. Some low rarity weapons will not receive NT version.

    - NT weapons receives "upgrade EXP" by contributing other weapons, grinders/ramda grinders will also be used
    - NT weapons never fail when upgrade, but can get "great success" like crafting
    - Upgrade cap is 35, but you need to contribute same weapons to increase its level cap after 30
    - Contribute weapons of the same rarity for element upgrade, synthesizers are not required
    - Potential can be unlocked at lv 10/20/30
    - Current weapon related titles can only be acquired from old generation weapons
    - Current items such as risk reduction, upgrade skip and success rate+ cannot be used to upgrade NT weapons (they will received new upgrade items)
    - NT weapons cannot be crafted

    List of NT weapons that can be acquired where are *13s?
    Spoiler!

    Wait, so is this system replacing the majority of existing weapons?

    That's actually the list of weapons that will be replaced by their NT versions. So if you kill something that currently drops a Nox TMG for example, it will instead be dropping Nox TMG NT after the update.

    I feel like if they're gonna bother replacing the weapon drops entirely, the OLD ones should be the ones with a new name. But whatever. = w=

    But didn't they show that there were going to be new 13*s that use the new system?

    So if I've got this right, you basically grind these to +30 (the old +10 x3)by feeding same rarity stuff, then feed identical versions for 30-35, and for element boosting the minimum required is now just same rarity rather than rarity and type. And in exchange you can't craft them, so everything below 12* is going to be completely useless, while 12* will be useless purely because they're still just Nox weapons.

    Great job Sega. Could have just overhauled grinding across the board, had to make it waaaaay more complicated instead.

    There's also the fact that they're screwing new players out of a lot of titles because the old weapons are being replaced on the drop tables.

    I don't see how it's screwing new players over, this is a good thing. Hopefully will move peeps to not using the same weapon set up as everyone else. And hopefully, those lovely designs to use.
