Xbox Closed Beta

anyone part of the Expert Super Hard crowd during first Elder?

I was in a group of a bunch of 50 to 60's on SH for the Elder fight (though I stuck to VH for the Arms). It was a lot like those first Elder runs back in the day in the sense that you had people who knew the tells and others who just kept getting wailed on by the arm thrusts, and it took a bit of time to do. Luckily we did have a Techter who had the foresight to get the Deband Skills, so anyone who had picked up and grinded some 10* Units didn't die in one-hit. I think I got hit like 4-5 times total due to mistimed JB Shift dodges, and my reward was -- drum-roll please -- a pair of Nox Knuckles...


I think I'm done with the Beta for now, as all I really have left is Story and leveling to the cap, and I would rather take my time with those than trying to rush through in tomorrow's extended time.

I accomplished the main goals I set out to do and had a good time doing it. I quite enjoyed the English voice actors and it felt refreshingly new yet familiar. It was a good time and I am looking forward to the full release.

i was only able to find one group doing SH elder unfortunately so we may have ran into each other. Some people got really lucky and got Gen 1 12* drops in my PT (naturally I didnt get anything).

I'm still wondering why they turned some of the Gen One 12*s into 13*'s in the beta and if they're going to be lowered in rarity on release or novelty considering the weapon badges are sorta a pain to farm outside AQs if you werent already doing VH Tranq

Some of those old weapons got NT versions that were only in es which were 13* and can be obtained in the NA version differently

I'd imagine they just dropped the NT name since OT weapons don't seem to exist in the NA version.

I was playing with a group of 50's doing VHAQ's when I just hit 40 and I got carried with them for a bit. I had a good time playing for a few hours before I got disconnected during a Emergency Quest. I tried finding them again but to no avail. I tried remembering one of their names and tried looking them up but I couldnt find them anymore. Hopefully later ill be able to link up with a few of them again

Yep. OT Weapons dont exist at all in PSO2NA
No more duplicate items with "NT" in their name. Every Weapon has a SAF now. I assume no Weapon extending for weapons below 12*. No more OT grinding titles either.
A lot of Junk from the Ex-Cube and Photon Sphere Exchange shops has been removed as well (namely all the trash 3s units). The game pretty much mucks out as many outdated and obsolete items and systems as possible while replacing OT-only weapons with NT counterparts which i really like to see.



I'm really satisfied with the localization of this game.

Ouch... that would mean to forever keep my Guld Millas I would need to +35 a Guld Milla NT if I were to play the NA version (Is there even a Guld Milla NT? I know Final Impact has an OT and NT while Spread Needle only came as an NT).

I pointed it out a few times in this thread but every OT-only Weapon has been converted into NT (and also buffed significantly by the looks of it). Here's an example.

On NA Guld Milla would still be called Guld Milla. Because there are no multiple versions of same weapons (10* Avenger & 13* Avenger-NT) the "-NT" part is also missing in the names of the weapons. The only OT grinding you'll ever do are Units and Pet Candy (which is absolutely fine since their fail rates aren't as obnoxious as Weapons were). Grind boost +30% still exists and has been added to Casino rewards by the looks of it.

The chat...OMG it's B7. If this is the sample base from only those dedicated enough to participate in the beta, yeah I'll stay in JP thank you very much.

That said, her voice is better than I would have expected.
