I can't seem to find any videos n' such showing off the Photon arts, My question to you all are, Which PA's are the STRONGEST for each striking weapon. I'd rather not get the "Flashy" PA's. I want to go for the ones that pack a punch.

you can always check damage percentages and hits in PSUpedia.info

Thatīs really hard to say as you wonīt tell for what situation...like single target or a group of foes? Multiple hit spots on a foe?

The one i can say really is the cheap, but very brutal P.A.
Dus Majara, itīs great for almost everything but a bit overused.

Your search will begin and end with an axe and jabroga, the one OHKO machine.

The escort-punchingest, grandma-slappingest, dog-shootingest PA around.

Wow, I laughed so hard kool-aid came out of my nose. And now my nose burns :(.

Anyways, Sorry for not being very specific. Okay, for groups of enemies I'm preferring Twin daggers, and swords. For single enemies I'm preferring axes, Double sabers, and possibly lance and twin sabers if anyone could help.

Ok, now we are getting somewhere.

I say Renkai Buyou-zan for Twin Dagger or Tornado Break for Sword for a group as spinning in circles will most easiely get hits in that is if they come towards you.
I prefer it for small critters like badira for example.

For single i will say..Spiral Dance for Double saber, Axes is not really a point unless the foe has more then one hit spot on their body, Lance is no contest Dus Majara as itīs pretty damn good...and for Twin Saber i would say Cross Hurricane.

IMO best for their situation.
Also, if there are cases where foes just stand like still in a group.
Donīt hesitate to level up Anga Jabroga for Axes, as it really do a number on them.
Or a big foes with lots of hit marks like Drue Gohra.

Axe= anga jabroga. Its great for mobs of groups, easy to lvl, and really strong. It might seem slow and hard to use but you get use to it.
I reccomend a slicer if you dont like axes for mobs= and the PA is chikki kyro-jin its 2k at the NPC store. and tears mobs and just about anything up.
Spear/lance=Dus majarra. Best PA in the game. 30 PA frags
id kinda keep away from twin daggers. there pretty weak. but for the PA id go with renkai buyou zan or hishou something zan. or the yoyo PA.
Twin sabers=rising crush or assault crush. Both fantastic and again tear mobs up.
single saber=rising strike
dagger=hikai or buten shuren zan.
And if your a fighgunner double sabers=since you dont have a wep for being circled get gravity dance it performs much better and is stronger than renkai or tornado break.

but to sum it up id use: Spear w/ dus majarra for normal battles, axe w/ anga jabroga for dragon bosses and mobs, slicer w/ chikki kyro jin for mobs easier to use if your having trouble aiming/timing anga jabroga. Youll be very stong using that setup. Just focus on high %s for those weapons. well i think like an elite so thats what i would be using. good luck

Dus Majarra, Anga Jabroga and Slicer Chikki is agreed a very very strong combo.

Myself i refrain to use them often just as the game is easy as it is.

I don't know why no one's posted this yet, but you can go to this very website, at This Link (http://www.pso-world.com/items-psu-pa-comparison.php) and pull up the PA Comparison page (or just click it off of the main PSO-World page). From there you can look up any and all PA's and if you want to see what each one is, there is a video uploaded that shows each skill. Just click on whichever PA you're interested in, go to the Multimedia part at the bottom, click "Media" and there's a small video you can check out for each one.

Thats where I went to see all the PA's in action and to plan out a battle strategy of sorts. Plus all the numbers are there too, for damage, cost, combos, and such.

I'd try Ank Redda..... I have not tryed the PA Frag move for it but this is the best normal one for the axe that I have found.... Easy to lvl and when a good axe and move lvled I hit 7-9 thousand wit it
