I see, thanks. Was planning on making lv3 vraolets for characters I use often for EQs and I hoped that they didnt need crafts

They don't all need pot3. Only the first one.

Does Photon Blade Fever's blade spam apply to Orbit DBs Potential?

It does indeed. Also if you have a Techer in party, Super Treatment and the first potential's 200% PP Regen when Sheathed stacks, in case you happened to be curious.

Perfect Dual Blades to get for a Bouncer.

Does one affix solely S-ATK on a bow for Kamikaze on BR/HU ?

Kamikaze scales off r-atk, but uses s-atk modifiers. If I remember correctly at least.

[Kole]

What subclass gives Ranger the highest damage output (ranger weps only)? rahu, ragu, rafi, or rabr?

[Rakurai]

RA/BR has the highest DPS assuming you're hitting weak points consistently.

[escarlata]

RaFi (TAJA + PPS ~8%) = 1.863
RaFi (TAJA only) = 1.725
RaBr (Charged PA) = 1.6335
RaFi (PPS only) = 1.62
RaHu = 1.6108
RaFi (no TAJA/PPS) = 1.5
RaBr (Uncharged PA) = 1.485

For back to back SC/EA spam, RaBr is clearly the strongest. Ra/Fi gets the strongest hits if it procs TAJA. RaHu is obv the most unconditional

[Selphea]

If you back to back EA you lose SS though, a PA in between will be able to regain SS.

recommended extend 7*- 10* armor for survive VH SH?
Hiei Units until you get Saiki, Extend to at least Lv6 or something if you plan to stick with them, tired of seeing people with Lv2-3 EX and dying fast and coming into TD4 and still getting destroyed by everything

[KazukiQZ]

^Why not ExLv3 Special with 300HP (or balance with 200HP/10PP) instead?

[KLMS1]

No idea. It's not like the actual numerical difference between Ex3 and Ex8 (the next special extend level) was all that large anyway; trading PP/HP from Special Ext 3 for trivially higher Def at regular ext 6 would be plain dumb.

[KazukiQZ]

^Well yea, that's the point of ExLv3 Special xD
So suggesting normal ExLv craft nowadays is a no-no

Orbit talis is a good utility weapon at lv3 latent. Orbit bow is also an option since according to a teammate it jives quite nicely with RS.

If I have Premium, and my friend doesn't, can I go buy a Premium ticket with my AC, and give it to him with a "Gift Box" left in his room? Will the Premium ticket allow me to place it within the gift box?

No your friend has to purchase AC and buy Prem on their own

[AmanoMai]

Was this actually tested yet? I've been looking for a 3rd element 13* dbs and the pot not working with Pblades(PP regen not the damage part) is the deciding factor for me.

the pot does indeed works with PB, so you gain 1.6 pp instead of the usual 1 pp from each PB (provided pot1 lv3)

however, i've been told that this does not work on deband pp restore, so the amount you get from DPR is unaffected by the potential

[wefwq]

If I have Premium, and my friend doesn't, can I go buy a Premium ticket with my AC, and give it to him with a "Gift Box" left in his room? Will the Premium ticket allow me to place it within the gift box?
Yes, you can leave present in his room using Gift Box.
But you can't give him premium ticket as it's not tradeable (?).

[PinkNeko]

Thank you for the info guys =D
Guess I'll try to find another way to get him premium

[LonelyGaruga]

This is correct for both Deband PP Restorate and Elemental PP Restorate Field. They are added after % modifiers are applied.

Without using +5% booster, there's no much alternative.
Just farm weapon badges and use the weapon as fodders.

You can use INVIDIA Inspector or RadeonPro to crank up your graphic settings even more further, but keep in mind that it may (or not) affect your game performance.
Refer to this thread (http://www.pso-world.com/forums/showthread.php?t=205228) for further instruction.

Yes, majority of EN playerbase are still hanging around Ship 2.
Yes, population (in general both EN and JP) are slightly decreased, though it's expected so because new episode update are about to rolling in, if going to the past experience the number of player will picking up after the update.

Might be a silly question but if Experience is your goal (Class Cubes) Would it be ideal to do VHAQ or SHAQ? Seeing the end result is try to get PSE...although I suppose that's random either way

[Naoya Kiriyama]

VHAQ. Enemies have 10 times less HP and five maybe half of it compared to SHAQ, meaning that they're much easier to kill and 2 kills would match (if not surpass) in exp against same enemy in SHAQ.

Invade, Orbit or Austere for higher combined HP/PP's worth, otherwise any old PP crafted leg unit if you prefer pure PP.

[Selphea]

up .

If it's relative positioning i.e. the target's position is important, chances are it's calculated as it hits.

To test, try firing a Torrential Arrow then moving around

Debating on Orbit Talis Element, Wind or Lighting? or Ice

[final_attack]

Um .... a little bit of question ^^;

I already planned to use Gunslash for some time atm (just for variation purpose), looking some options .....

Would it be better to use Ares (still need to collect stones, sadly) ...... or should I go with CelestaLaser?

I'm thinking going FiHu ........ with most of the time, focusing on the S-Atk part. R-Atk affix will come from Apprentice + Modulator only. Maybe gonna add Ability3 too, but not sure.

Personally I don't mind doing TAJA ..... since I do TAJA as Fi-main too (using knuckles).

So, which better weapon (damage wise) ...... Celesta / Ares? :o

Thank you.

Edit : Also, if I got 1 for pure Shooting purpose (Aiming Shot, long range sniping only, GuRa, since SneakShooting feels weird in tps mode ._. ), which Gunslash should I get? Maybe I'd lean towards non ☆１３ for this one though. Wanna save the LambdaGrinders for Orbit Knuckle. But will see ._.

[Rakurai]

What's average or I guess "safety range" when it comes to HP for FO?

From personal experience, having 1K with Saiki units is enough to keep you from getting two hit KO'd by the majority of enemies without need of Deband Toughness, though you're still vulnerable to getting OHKO'd by the strongest attacks (Though you shouldn't getting hit by those in the first place).


Debating on Orbit Talis Element, Wind or Lighting? or Ice

Depends what elements you already have access to.

I'd suggest Ice or Lightning if you don't have those yet, because talis are rather awkward to use Na Zan and Zan with.

[Selphea]

so PAs that launch you to opponent and hit on contact such as kamikaze arrow always count as close range right ?

Usually but afaik Firesword found that certain collision boxes like Rodos are so fat that you can't get close enough for close range to kick in.

[Naoya Kiriyama]

Usually but afaik Firesword found that certain collision boxes like Rodos are so fat that you can't get close enough for close range to kick in.

As you said, some targets have weird hitboxes. It's pretty safe to say that the range stuff follows the center of the weakspot instead of all the weakspot. Meaning that you should approach that part.

For example, Elder's arms. The arms counts as a weakspot, but the center is a spot of the arm (where the WB is placed, since no matter what part of the arm you hit, it will be always the same spot for WB)

It's not always the case though

Anybody got an translation on the Ep.4 Story trailer from the last Live Broadcast?

[Chris_Chocobo]

Something strange is happening to me those last days. Im playing with a friend as allways. But lately, enemies only focuses on me. Even if he's near the enemies, they ignore him and focus all their attacks to me. It's a bit frustrating, why this is happening?

We didn't do anything strange. I asked if he got any timed hability or something but nope. At first we thought it was because i enter first on bosses, but i allways did that before and never happened this. Even in Extreme Quest happens.

[Selphea]

What class are you and what class is he?

[Bellion]

Probably one of the following:
You did more damage
You were noticed first(in which case entering the boss area first will have you as the target by default)
Shifta Drink w/ Hate Effect Up or weapon with a potential with the same effect.

[Chris_Chocobo]

What class are you and what class is he?

Gunner/Ranger and he is Braver/Hunter


Probably one of the following:
You did more damage
You were noticed first(in which case entering the boss area first will have you as the target by default)
Shifta Drink w/ Hate Effect Up or weapon with a potential with the same effect.

They come after me since the beggining of the fight. I allways did the trick to enter fist on Bosses in High dificulties and never happened before. And we never used any drink or got a weapon with that effect. Its happening since yesterday. It's strange.

[Bellion]

Were you activating Showtime by any chance?
Entering in an area by yourself first normally makes you the target, it's actually quite odd that isn't the case for you.
Then, enemies go after the ones that have done the most damage to them. Certain skills, potentials, and certain drinks impact the hate accumulation done through damage.

[Nyansan]

Gunner/Ranger
Must be Showtime's effect.

[Don-Quichotte]

Hello, I wanted to know sompething about Force: if I want to use both fomelgion and barantsion, do I need to get both Fire and Ice mastery ?

[Xaeris]

If you mean if they're required to use them at all, no. If you mean for effectiveness, Masteries will boost those tech's powers, but you wouldn't want to take both masteries in the same loadout. Typically, people make Force trees that specialize in one element, rather than trying to create hybrid trees. What most of us do is create multiple trees for each element and switch them depending on what the enemies where we're going are vulnerable to.

BRHU can go with something like this nowadays:

If you're going to use bow for kamikaze arrow only, you should consider going Fi/Br (unless of course, you wish to use a 13* bow). Limit Break provides a huge boost to it.

What would be a good force weapon (Rod/Talis/Wand) for a very low level (20~ish) force to hold on to until you can equip stuff like bert and etc?

Asking for new character slot coming

If you wish to use photon boosters, than a red rod/talis with the element(s) you're using will go a very very long way.

@LoN_Lina: Bumped's update note mentionned that the Leveling up Quest's LQ got rotated on last maint.

I thought red wasn't advised for fo/te because of the lack of crit boosting skills?

pso2es question

Google play gift cards can be used to buy AC right? meaning I can use a gift card found in US for the game and it will convert my US dollar to yen?

i use US card and it works, as long as your wallet address is US too

[Sandmind]

I thought red wasn't advised for fo/te because of the lack of crit boosting skills?

Hum ... no, that's not why. It got to do with how the weapon element system work. For striking and shooting weapon, it add a 50% weapon damage (if weapon 50% element ofc), which isn't affected by crafted weapon variance. Tech damage fully ignore weapon element and FO's Element Conversion is a % multiplier that will simply multiply the weapon's variance ... making it more variable than strike/shooting.

But at lower level, any old crafted rod/talis with 50% matching element will turn even VH into a joke. Red is simply usuable for longer, and an good option for freemium while hunting their 13*.

Extra crafting info: You can reduce variance with higher dex, including affix, gear and class titles (BO and BR give both 30dex). Once crafted weapon get to the EX lv requiring silva-tier material or above, it get an hidden dex bonus, based on rarity (for 7-9*, aka red, it's EX lv9). Which usually help it reach 80% minimum weapon damage iirc for a quick estimate. Rare weapon get 90% minimum by default, disregarding Dex entirely.

Is any one else suffering from random disconnects? I was just in TD and got 630'd but when I got back it looked like half the block got kicked. In the past week, I'd get DC'd at odd times like at the class change counter or in my room, is this happening often to any one else recently?

Have they confirmed how multi-part costumes are going to be obtained from the scratch with Ep.4? Like for the 200AC scratch, will it just be one piece, like CAST parts, or will they be in a bundle?

Anyone know how much health Anga has in UQ?

[arokidaaron]

K thanks!

[Rakurai]

Anyone know how much health Anga has in UQ?

900Kish x 2 (Since you need to kill it twice).

[Dammy]

i'm pretty sure its few mils at least
900k is nothing

[Rakurai]

A little under two million would be a reasonable estimate for its combined HP when factoring in its revival.

I don't think it's realistically possible to kill it before Dio Hunar arrives if you're not using a weapon with a stage order damage bonus.

[aryayudhaprakasa2]

Please help:
1. Are the 7th ilbarta always crit? Because many people maxing weak stance critical for fo/br
2. Which is better, weak or average for fo/br?
3. What's trick to skip the lilipa yellow controller (mashing keyboard) like someone in this video?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riFgOfGdIE4&t=0m28s
4. Can i store the casino coins somewhere like meseta when mine is full? (30k casino coins)

Thanks in advance :)

[Rakurai]

1. Il Barta doesn't always crit, and even if it did, the damage gain would be pretty negligible. Not to mention you can already make it crit fairly often as it is if you're using the Gal rod.

2. Weak Stance is better, as you'll get the damage bonus from hitting an enemy on its weak point or from hitting its elemental weakness and meeting either condition should be easy in most situations.

idk, that guy asked about UQ specifically , and any decent player does like 1 mil on phase change

[Rakurai]

Oh. I thought he was talking about XQ Anga due to failing at reading.

UQ Anga has 7.8 million HP per phase; 9.8 if it's named.

First you need to buy a ニョイボウ and a ブラオレット. Grind them both to 10, go to the unlock potential option at dudu / monica, sacrifice some photon spheres, grind them to plus 10 and repeat twice more until they're at level 3.

Then you need to craft them, here's how crafting works: http://bumped.org/psublog/pso2-crafting-system-mini-guide/

You need to craft more to unlock the higher grades. Check the Achievements tab.

...or just farm it out to someone else, that's what the crafter search on Visiphone is for.

[Flaoc]

If you're going to use bow for kamikaze arrow only, you should consider going Fi/Br (unless of course, you wish to use a 13* bow). Limit Break provides a huge boost to it.

no fibr is not that good anymore outside of ta. the main draw of kami is to be used with both massive hunter and automate combined to be able to tank hits while delivering op amounts of no wb damage also main class gets charge bonus which means kami charges faster. if you cant get a 13* edel arrow and gandiva are both powerful alternatives though the former costs a decent amount. (or at least it did awhile ago)

If you have a storage drive with at least 32 GB you can copy the game folder there to keep it safe when you wipe your OS drive then move it back. But if you don't then game installer can be downloaded in arks layer as a torrent.

Rules say "no client mods & links" but the're a couple popular threads about just that so...

[Saffran]

I've tried that recently (bought a new pc) and the 32gb drive was just a tiny little bit too small. But it's a good method if you have several usb drives.

[steverowland]

Ok i have no idea what I'm doing wrong but Braver Just Reversal doesn't work for me. I have it within my SP skills as it is default BR skill but no matter how much i spam jump, it doesn't do anything. Tried on gamepad the jump button and on keyboard spacebar, none of that works.

Do I need to bind some other key to something or how does this work?

You know you have to be knocked down to JR right?
You have to do it right after hitting the ground (wait for the sound), not before
If you hit jump too early then you can't do it at all


Can you do just reversals on other other classes?

Ah I was spamming it to hit the time window so that's why it didn't work.
I can sometime do it now if i wait a moment after getting hit but the window seems really small, if i do it too early then it doesn't work and when its too late it also doesn't work and I have to get up manually.
Is there any trick to this? In big combat I can't really hear the sound and its difficult to see when exactly my char hits the ground, some indicator like for JA or something that i can use to know when to use it?

One more question.
I was now doing mission with random summoned NPC of players and one of them seemed to apply a vampiric blade aura, like when you used Eldar Pain back in the days - except this one worked for me when I was using katana. So I was practically immortal as it was recovering like 6000 hp per PA usage.

I checked the SP trees of force and techer and also the technique discs to see if there is such technique but can't find anything like that. So which class does that and what skill is that?

What are good, reliable volg combos?
Volg > Zenith Throw is pretty unreliable cause bosses move just a bit and the final hit doesn't work.

I'm looking for something I can easily use against PD for example without worrying that half the time I'll end up with low dps cause the combo doesn't finish.

How is Volg > Speedrain > Speedrain?
I want something that has decent range and speed so even if the boss moves I hit or at least before the boss moves away, I already did a nice amount of damage. More than the first hits of Zenith without the final one at least >_>

Volg > Zenith for things that you can connect the last hit on.
Volg > Slide End > AB/SR for things that move too much for Zenith.
Tbh for PD I would rather just swap to Knuckles and BHS it since parts often break too fast for the Volg explosion

Each hour each inactive boost rolls for x% chance to become active/enabled, if success that boost is enabled for y hours

It's just a percentage of the base value based on the item's rarity and grind level (rounded down presumably?). Cirnopedia has a full table of the percentages for weapons and units. (See: stat enhancement row).

So I'm having doubts on playing Fi/hu with partizans and being able to keep my gear nearly full, should I just go fi/hu with a halva, or should I do Hu/Fi with the hu gear skill boost?
Or should I just ignore gear and go fi/hu with something like a red partizan?

On a sidenote, exactly how much gear do you get from one end of the attack spin with the halva potential?

[Bellion]

You get 2 bars filled instead of 1 when the potential is level 3. Just go with a red partizan, stalk brush, or a fuuganaginata.
Pure partizan play though, go Hu/Fi if you have a 13* at this point.

Just two questions. Sorry if these have been asked before, and/or if I am posting in the wrong thread.

Firstly, if I am looking to purchase AC, is it still alright to do so from Arks-Layer? I've read around and sutocorp seems to be a hassle, but I'm not sure how safe Arks-Layer is. Had an incident after using paypal before where scam emails were sent to me saying that my credit card was used for an unauthorized purchase.

Secondly, I play the game through Tweaker with no plugins other than the Proxy activated, because I need it. However, I noticed that the list of block names when I access the portals in the lobby are in English. Does this mean that when I start quests, my party name is in English as well, or is this only the case if I have English patch activated? I have no way to check since my friends who used to play with me are no longer around.

1. Arks-layer seems to have a really long wait time, sometimes of weeks. The best way to buy AC is PSO2es, and it's cheaper, t'boot.
2. As long as the mission name you see when you select it is still in Japanese, it shouldn't be in English, but if you are concerned about your party name, you can change it to display your name rather than the Quest from the options.

Once you hit Silva and Gold level crafting (EX LV9+ for 9* weapons), the variance goes down, but it will not reach the 90% of a non-crafted weapon.

I specify the material used, and not the level because the exact ex level the bonus applies varies on the rarity of the weapon.

ty for both answers :) so what would you guys recommend me to do? to go ahead and extend the talises or not bothering?

Lambda Visburn got the 5% (Tech) JA potential. For freemium, outside of hunting a long long time and be time gated by EQ, 10-12* aren't easy to get. Well, you can get up to three 12* weapon pass from Titles for doing XH quest (EQ or XH Kuron). For 12*, Talis has the 16% Dark tech potential Nox Talis. And there is the Maihime Talis that boost IL type tech by 23* (ILbarta, ILgrants, etc.).

Otherwise, before reaching Ult and XH for hunting 13*, the only better thing easily obtainble are the VHAQs 7* red serie weapons. Their hidden potential is 14%/15%/16% damage boost if crafted. Because hidden potential require Photon Booster instead of Photon Sphere, it's harder to unlock since you mostly get them from Challenge Mode and a set of 3 PB for pot1 is 10k CM roughly and lv2 and lv3 also require 4 and 5 each. Better to get lv1 and not bother with the +2% damage if going this way.

And different AQs drop different red weapon: Red Talis (http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=fr&rurl=translate.google.ca&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php%3F%25E8%25B5%25A4%25E3%2581%25AE%25E3%25 82%25BF%25E3%2583%25AA%25E3%2582%25B9&usg=ALkJrhhetPW2FlPXUlKFt7AV6Lkkgy9nsw)

1. Arks-layer seems to have a really long wait time, sometimes of weeks. The best way to buy AC is PSO2es, and it's cheaper, t'boot.
2. As long as the mission name you see when you select it is still in Japanese, it shouldn't be in English, but if you are concerned about your party name, you can change it to display your name rather than the Quest from the options.

Thanks for answering.

I have problems accessing PSO2es as I live in SEA, where the IP block is in effect. So I guess I'll have to depend on Arks-Layer.
And yeah, I've taken steps to change that to display my name instead of the Quest name for now. None of the Quest names are displaying in English, though. Maybe I was worried for no reason.

What are these "stickers" from solo XQ useful for? Is it just a beauty shop accessory?

Is solo XQ worth the 5 passes?

Where to farm gyphon gels?

[Macmaxi]

can put stickers on your face

depends if you want photon boosters, lamdas and pleis

pretty much nowhere anymore as far as i know

[Tunga]

Just wait for sega to give stickers a 10% boost to that class you got it for.

[Macmaxi]

that would actually have been a somewhat more interesting boost than the title one

Where's the best place to farm for Heavenly Kite level 17? It's the only DB PA I don't have capped and it's been stuck at 16 for a while.

I got mine while doing UQ ._.
Other than that , maybe just XH EQ ..... City maybe, since Ragne and Kukloneda listed as the mobs that dropped it (http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%88%E3%83%B3%E3% 82%A2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%84%2F%E3%83%87%E3%83%A5%E3%82 %A2%E3%83%AB%E3%83%96%E3%83%AC%E3%83%BC%E3%83%89%E 7%B3%BB#w090fbae).

[Spiral]

Regarding gemstones/3rd tier spellstones, can they drop in the solo extreme quest? Do they only drop on certain floors? Or are other extreme quests the only viable way of farming them?

Sorry if this was worded differently and asked recently.
Thank you in advance, as usual!

[KazukiQZ]

^According to what I read, it does not drop in the solo XQ.

The legit way to acquire them would be gathering 30 ores of same type to convert into 1 large spellstone. Some title reward related to XQs also give them out (either as spellstone or in form of Ores). So do check the title sometimes.

[Macmaxi]

you probably want to spend your 5 slots on something more worthwhile (lambdas,photons,pleis leave only 2 slots left for items or stones).

regular xq is the way to go for spellstones, also good if you havent done the titles yet (check at counter last tier gives like 3 spellstones i think

[Yamishi]

I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but what ever happened to that PSO2 Alert app for Windows Phone and/or Windows Metro? Wish I could still get hour-early EQ notifications on my Windows Phone like I could on my Android device. :(

So do ppl mainly rush Harkotan TA for abductions? Also does it matter what difficulty it has to be as well?

[Sandmind]

Well, a party of 4 can burn VH TA Harkotan in a few minutes. And VH Darker Den is faster to go throught also. Not like you gain anything more from higher level clones. And if Hunar seem to be taking his sweet time to kill you, un-equip units. :wacko:

[steverowland]

What do clones drop now? I remember way back they dropped photon spheres but those are worthless now so why would people farm clones?

[raialeus]

Clones drop weapons/units with Modulator, which is still a great source of making Meseta

[Weiss9029]

Also photon spheres are anything but worthless, they are still very used for exp tickets, PAs, potentials, maxing mags, etc.
On that note dont forget that episode 4 is coming soon and will have a new character slot, which means a influx in demand for spheres, not to mention you can buy compound techs for 50 spheres soon aswell

[Dark Emerald EXE]

might be a silly question but beside the ears there isn't much difference appearance wise between Human and Newman right? (oppose to dewman which has whole eyes,pale skin color palette and horn)


not to mention you can buy compound techs for 50 spheres soon aswell

I thought this was one was a bit silly seeing how easy it is to acquire them anyway.....but all for convenience i suppose...

Is there a certain number of mob #'s determined for A-rank class? I noticed while clearing Daily Orders you can A rank just by mobbing some A3 (spawns with 2players+) and not needing to do anyhting in A1 A2 areas which I'm guessing some different fields have more or less mobs differently.

[blkbox11]

Forgot to include this with my questions earlier:

Does SH Kuronia exploration drop Guren Tessen disks as well? Or is it only XH?

I've been killing mobs on SH for a while but didn't see any drops.

Only fields you can't do if I remember correctly is Desert/Coast/V. Cave/Sub Tunnels/Shironia/Seabed

I might be wrong for like 1-2 of them since I haven't really done dailies in a long time.

Not sure about Free Fields, but when we were farming Quartz Soul in FC VHAQ with teammates, the party leader used to run to A3, we jumped there from campship (all at 0 mob kills) and just cleared the A3 adds to get S-rank.

Hey I can't seem to find if 2016 badges are going to buy actual weapons or just camos? Also is the shop to exchange 2015 badges actually being removed or is it just badges? I have a lot of 2015 badges saved up but I'm not sure what's going on I can't find much details on it.

[untrustful]

The 2015 badges are good until the 27th I think, so if you don't have enough badges to trade for what you want, you'll have to wait until the 2016 badge shop is set. Once it is, you'll be able to exchange 2015 for 2016 at a rate of Ten 2015 badges for One 2016 Badge.

The 2016 series are camos, and from what it looks like the shop isnt going anywhere.

[Atlantis419]

The 2016 series are camos, and from what it looks like the shop isnt going anywhere.

Year that's what has me confused. The wording on what was translated seemed to imply only that there would be a new shop for 2016 badges and that you could trade 2015 to 2016. It didn't really specify as to whether the 2015 shop would actually disappear. Considering that the 2015 shop is good for element boosting whatever other 13* I can get my hands on as opposed to just buying camos in the 2016 shop I'd hate to essentially lose my 2.1k 2015 gold badges if they removed the 2015 shop. Camos don't really do nothing for me. I'm very hesitant about waiting till we find out but I can't seem to find concrete information on this.

How rank is determined is by tallying up a number of points that you acquire through defeating enemies. These are the same points that determine boss drops and point acquisition for quests that have points as a goal. The number of points given for an enemy also varies by quest, so even the same type of enemy won't necessarily give the same number of points between quests.

So whether you can get an S-rank or not via defeating only adds in A3 depends on what kind of mobs spawn too. For the weaker spawn groups that provide fewer points, you'll need to defeat enemies along the way to secure an S-rank.

Um ..... question :o

Does CompoundTech's Damage affected by LindCray's Potential? (+25% TechDamage under SacrificeBite)?

I was thinking to get Magatsu's Pyrox Rod, just for the sake of doing Folmegion once I have the money ..... But maybe I'll get Dark-ele LindCray instead ^^;
Well, Just doing it for fun, I guess ^^; Never really aim for ☆１３ things for Tech-class (not enough time to play ^^; just for variation). Usual offensive tech I used is Wind / Light only, and my current Dark-ele weapon is Dark Talis ^^;

Thank you :D

Could be wrong, but believe compound techs require a tech weapon...that doesn't include jet boots. So rod, talis or wand. So it may not be possible. (Assuming lindcray is a sword)

How was Dark Falz Loser created? Someone told me it was the same way as Olga Flow, a fusion of human, dark falz and a super computer. Can anyone confirm?

[Rakurai]

Loser isn't even a true Dark Falz in the sense that it's simply Luther forcing a transformation on himself by absorbing Darker particles, as opposed to being a distinct entity occupying a host body.

[LonelyGaruga]

Currently, the only Dark Falz whose origin is 100% confirmed is Apprentice's, who was a Photoner (Aurora) that was corrupted by the Profound Darkness' influence, taking advantage of her selfish goal of being the most beautiful Photoner. Presumably, all the other Dark Falzes (except for Persona who isn't quite a Dark Falz) were created through the same way. Loser is unique in that, in pursuing his goal of omniscience, he willingly purged himself of the negative photons that constituted his Dark Falz form, so that he could convincingly control ARKS. By absorbing negative photons again, he resumes his Dark Falz form in 2-5.

Regarding the post directly above this, it doesn't appear that any Dark Falz actually is a separate entity from their host, except for cases where the current host was possessed by the original Dark Falz (which is the case for [Elder] + Gettemhart and Aurora and Euclita). [Loser] and [Persona] are the same characters as their original forms, leaving only [Double] as unknown.

Can tweaker's progress to downloading pso2 be paused? Friend is process of downloading it now but says at this rate it would take all night and said they're not going to leave it on all night. If she ended it....and came back tomorrow would it continue where she left off?

I want to say it "should" since tweaker can find the files it's already downloaded and continue from where it left off. But tweaker is rather fickle and since I don't have any personal experience pausing and restarting the download, I can't say for certain.
