So far so good. Betten it twice now in pugs.
Perhaps this was the reason they added the +35 requirement for the lvl cap increase? I guess sega was now trying to give us a hint.

Looks like Deus Esca is doing its job forcing encouraging players to start grinding for access to the Expert Blocks.

More like grinding Su topkek.

You make it sound like gearing SU is actually easy.

Have you ever force fed your pet?

Yeah? I have a Lv. 120 Shinkuro.

I'm talking about actually making your Pet usable with Candy Box shenanigans.

That requirement wasn't necessary. My GuHu and RaHu could still use their 40+ 13*s fully affixed and do no worse with 35+ 13* weps. That requirement was more of a grindy stall BS add-on they did for lv 80 cap than anything else. The real problem was noob players spending 10s of millions of meseta on outfits and fasion tickets and not on their gear, as well as terrible builds and lacklustrer skill tree builds. And because of that, we all suffered with mindless lvl cap restrictions and requirments (perfect cube IV shenanigans were kinda lame as well).

That post was about getting into expert blocks though, not about gearing up.

Expert Blocks are the way to go for XH Deus Esca. Players there take their gearing a little more seriously. You'll almost never have to worry about losing a Deus EQ in an Expert Block. Its worth the effort to grind one of your main class weapon to +35 just to enter an Expert Block. Just be considerate enough to give your gear some decent affixes and you're good to go.

Anyway, just finished a Deus EQ run and managed to finish my Zeinesis Calibur sheet in the process. Not only that, but with a total of 350% drop rate boost, I managed to get a Zeinesis Lance (Wired Lance) as a drop. The hidden affix on the Zeinesis weapon is called "Deus Factor" which gives +20 to all ATK types, +20 HP and +1 PP.

nah thats just the factor that drops in the eq..

this however is the deus wep factor

[loafhero]

nah thats just the factor that drops in the eq.

Oh, well there's that but for as much as I've runned the EQ, the Deus Factor affix was kept as "-" until I got a Zeinesis weapon.
