Harro! :3
So, I've recently (finally) accepted that PSO2 is probably never releasing in the west and have started playing on the JP servers. (Actually tried to start a couple of years ago, but couldn't even get an account created) I was hugely addicted to the original PSO (GC version) and so I was really hoping they would follow it up here, but...eh, really doesn't look like it now. q.q
Anywho, had better luck this time and have been playing for a few weeks, and really enjoying it so far. I have a few questions though, and seem to be finding more all the time - so I thought I'd just make my own thread. So yeah, here they come;
1. Weak rare weapons?
I see already that rare weapons seem to drop alot more frequently than in the original PSO...but the majority seem really weak. Like, literally half the damage of standard weapons of the same type found in the same areas and same difficulty. What's up with this? Have they just become obsolete over time, or am I missing something?
Also, are there any drop charts similar to those of the original PSO?
2. Gathering~
I like the new gathering element to the game, but still unsure of some things. Is it worth gathering in certain maps more than others? Are all found materials worth keeping? And also, Yerkes' quests in Franka's Cafe are very tempting - are any of those worth doing or should I just save everything?
3. Costumes & Layering wear
LOVE the much deeper customization in PSO2. Though, I've noticed I can't really mix standard costumes with layered parts. Is there any way to show layer wear WITH a costume, or will the costume just always hide them?
4. Star Gems & FUN Points?
I'm wondering what the best thing to do with each of these is. I notice SG in particular is fairly hard to come by, so I'm afraid to spend it on anything
5. Scratch Cards~
If I'm understanding correctly, the prizes for scratch cards rotate every so often. Is there anywhere I can check to see exactly what's available at a given time, and how often do each of them rotate?
6. Translation~
I deeply appreciate the work that has been done translating the game <3 However, there are many things that are still unreadable to me x.x As much as I'd love to be able to read and speak Japanese, it's hardly a short-term solution. So, are there any tools out there that are quick and easy to use for rough translation? I imagine there's surely something for text that can be copy/pasted, but what about the text that cannot be? Such as item descriptions?
Whew..sorry for wall 'o' text, but I think that's it (for now) x.x
Any tips at all are greatly appreciated, not expecting every question answered by everyone! :P
