I have a level 71 charated who has completed all but 1 of the story mode chapters.

they are available in C, B, and A rank, but no S rank.

Does anyone know why? Do I have to beat the mission on A rank before I can get the S? DO I have to be level 80? Do I have to finish ALL the story mode missions?

There's no S-Rank Story missions. No idea why really either.

There isn't any real benefit to clearing them on any given difficulty, aside from the 10 PA Fragments you can only receive on Difficulty A the first (and only the first) time you clear a trial with Rank S. Completing a story mission even on Difficulty C will unlock the next mission on all difficulty levels anyway.

So, I finally tried that chapter 7, and I must say SEGA completely screwed it. What the heck are they on?
Protecting the Festa 1 is absolutely impossible for a Fortegunner to get S Rank reward, what is the point of this?

I got all S Rank rewards in all 12 preceding story missions (six chapters, two missions per chapter) after only a few tries each time, but this one is beyond impossible. I tried it over twenty times, planning the best weapon type and PA to use against the monsters there (I am mostly using Yak Yoga and Barada Yoga + Sturm Buster + traps), I cannot get anything but C Rank, and I'm not even close to B Rank since I'm not getting any points for my time (18 minutes).

Anyone got tips to kill Dilnazens and Gaozorans as fast as possible with a Fortegunner?
Has someone even achieved S Rank on this mission? Which class?
Is there something I'm missing about that mission?

This is annoying. Why make a mission in which it is absolutely impossible to get S Rank with a certain class? >=/

^ get hunter 10 and kill em with b rank weps.

ok... look at that picture:



And tell me how +28 ATP, -315 ATA, much worse weapons, Lv20 skills and Lv10 bullets is gonna make me go faster, again?

Think before posting >_>

yeah that was kinda stupid thing to say..unless you were being sarcastic, but then... even then, not really funny

[Ffuzzy-Logik]

I got S on the first part of Protect the Festa....on C.

[SolomonGrundy]

I expect sega was not thinking of someone getting an S on all story missions

speaking of, when it comes to those story missions, do you get 10 frags for EACH PART? or just the second part?
