what's the best tact besides rykros?
Lumiere

[the_importer_]

do you remember what attack specifically it was that killed you?

Don't recall, pretty sure it wasn't it wasn't getting hit by an arm or finger lasers. I know it's after the chest eye opened.

[moorebounce]

open inventory > click that outift > take a look of that drop down menu, there should be "Obtain Star Gem" option

edit:
but make sure the Star Gem "bar" maxed, which can be filled by getting exp while wearing that outfit.

Thanks. I hate having to actually make my character wear it lol

[milranduil]

Considering that PD's 2nd form managed to kill me with one hit when using Guts Drink EX, guessing you're right. Oh well, guess I'll just have to play until Murphy's law decides to stop fucking with me.

murphy's law in solo pd is getting walled 4 times in a row, not dying. dying is user error. if you say specifically what you're having trouble with, people might be able to help. otherwise, we can't do anything. solo pd is incredibly low HP by today's meta, so i suggest trying random drink with weak point damage up and just doing as much dmg as possible.

Murphy's law is an adage or epigram that is typically stated as: "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong".

I'm trying to win this battle without using a half doll. I can beat this solo mission using one, but I don't want to. Because I'm trying to beat without dying, Murphy's law finds a way to fuck with me. It's not like I'm stuck in the same part and die at the same place, it just doesn't want to let me win, so I'll die once on a random occasion. I know that if I were ever to beat it once without dying and claim the 200 SG prize, that Murphy's law would no longer give a fuck and I could win without dying once.

That my friend is Murphy's law.

you're really going to argue with someone who has done 500+ runs of solo pd when you haven't cleared it once? i know exactly what murphy's law is. i said it once and i'll say it again, dying is user error.

First of all, you're gonna have to prove that you did 500+ run of solo PD. I don't know long how this thing ran as a limited quest before going the trigger way, but if we go with badges alone, that would require over 25 000 of them. Second, in what universe is being good at a game makes you knowledgeable in philosophical ways? Third, I never said I never beaten Solo PD, on the contrary, I said I can, but with the use of a half doll. Fourth, this is a forum, if you don't want people to argue or challenge your ideas, it'd recommend hitting "Log Out" at the upper right side of your browser.

Finally


dying is user error.

or input lag, server issues, ISP issues, local hardware problem, etc. But ya, putting those aside, I say "no shit Commodus!" If you knew anything about Murphy's law, you wouldn't even need to point that out. Most of the time, Murphy's law is associated with the principal bad luck, AKA: Superstition, a psychological factor where a person causes their "bad luck" due to the lack of confidence in once self or believing that they are due to fail.

So ya, when someone brings up Murphy's law in the terms of failing at something, it's mostly a psychological thing. In short, I'm dying once because I don't want to die once and I lack confidence. Anyway, thanks for taking the fun out of using that adage kid, see you around.

EDIT: OK, how the hell is this possible, I actually died once during this battle (from Persona if you can believe it) and yet, I got this:

Solo PD rank is determined by clear time and is not influenced by death.

[Kondibon]

On the plus side that means you're stronger than me, because I barely scraped by the required time and had no deaths at all.

[the_importer_]

This means that I could have cleared this a long time ago if I didn't quit after dying?!?! Fuck my shit SEGA, why do you keep changing the rules!!

Well be fair, I think it's Grants that gives me the upper edge for Double since I can waste him between 2 and 3 minutes, leaving enough time for PD.

it's absurd how insecure you are. 2 stones per run, i had 1000 4 months ago
https://twitter.com/milranduil/status/987209966565011456
as for murphy's law, me saying "dying is user error" means its not luck at all, it's you. you even admit that it's your own fault saying it's performance anxiety, but instead of just saying "yeah i'm bad, but would like to improve, could you watch my gameplay and give me tips?" you just say "i can't do this cuz if i can die, i will die."

i've said this over and over again to many, many people. i don't care if people are bad, i care that they seek to improve. making excuses is so lame.

safe to assume you havent even cleared the current solo XQ either, holy hell dude

[Saffran]

To be fair, the last solo XQ has a souped up Omega Hunar.

[MDashK]

Is anyone else experiencing white-screen lock after omega apprentice? It's the second time this happens to me!
But I have done the EQ at least another time, and this didn't happen..
The game doesn't really lock up, I still see the rare drop icon and hear sounds, etc... it just doesn't pass that white screen and I don't get back character control...

It is a random bug that happens with any EQ. It's quite rare.

[MDashK]

It is a random bug that happens with any EQ. It's quite rare.

God damn it... I though they had fixed it already back when they implemented poses on Dark Falz...
For something quite rare, it's been happening more often than not on this specific new EQ... I did this EQ 3 times until now, and 2 of them ended up like this... XD

[ArcaneTechs]

To be fair, the last solo XQ has a souped up Omega Hunar.
the entire XQ has buffed everything sooo i mean, idk what you're getting at. By now most people should have at least cleared the solo once but we all know they took the 4man clear title :wacko:

[the_importer_]

it's absurd how insecure you are.

lol, I'm not the one replying to people by renting about my "Elite status" or loosing my shit when someone "dares" to question my knowledge. You need to learn the definition of insecure mate.

Hard to believe that you've obtained so many weapon crests in order to get so many triggers. Then again, looking at the list of YouTube videos of PSU, LOL and PSO2 that you posted for over 9 years, it becomes more than plausible (that's not a compliment mind you).

Oh for crying out loud, take a break from online gaming, pick up a psych book and start reading.

Well look at what I just did without dying:

i really don't know where you get these twisted ideas tbh. the entire point of me saying i've done 500+ runs was to emphasize that i'm very experienced at running it on a variety of classes and know that dying in that quest in 2018 has nothing to do with luck. it simply means you don't know the boss attacks or are not paying attention to tells. of course, you only took it personally as an attack using my "status" to demean you when i don't care about any of that to begin with.
btw i find it ironic when you're trying lecture me about the definition of insecure when you call me 'kid'.

it's particularly amusing to me that you find it so hard to believe people play more than you when i'm not even that hardcore compared to some of the JP players i'm friends with on twitter. there are a few who have run more solo PD than me and still have 20k+ weapons badges.

i guarantee you if you recorded that run and rewatch it, you'll realize that it is in fact not luck to srank pd, but knowledge and player skill. good job, keep it up.

So the man likes to play Phantasy Star games at a high level; so what? Implying that this is somehow sad or something to be pitied is really petty. He was actually trying to help you, though his language was pretty direct.

Also, an 11:28 is not really a time to brag about. It wasn't even really a clear time to brag about when it was new a year and a half ago.

[Saffran]

True, but buffed Hunar is off the charts.
Deus is relatively easy, the only notable things is that the timing to guard the triple attack changes after he used the divine punishment.
Atron is random. Sometimes I kill the enemies before he can inflict status effect, sometimes SE stops just as I deliver the killing blow, sometimes I can just guard or charge cancel the hammer, sometimes I can't, and it's the same for all his attacks. It's pretty annoying but if you can get enough damage in from the get-go, you can clear the stage pretty easily.
Phaleg is pretty consistent. Regardless of how stage 2 went, you can clear her easily once you know her attacks.
Stage 4 is hit or miss. I pretty much always clear it but I don't have any defined strategy for it.

And then there's buffed Hunar, who can kill me with pretty much any attack, even when I guard as he gets another buff later in the fight. I have to admit, that shit's getting old and tiring.

No, he's not helping, he's just here to boost is ego. Also, don't care about the time, was just saying that I could do it without dying now since there's nothing at stakes now. Mind you, if I spend those 3000+ crest of triggers, I'll probably chip some time out of this just by simple repetition.

Solo PD 1* Sword - 11:36

Nice. Pretty much proves that stats and trees make up the bulk of your power. Did you grind and affix that sword or kept it as is?


i died at the start of pd once when i was drunk, took a dump came back and still got a faster time than that wtf are you doing

Did you wash your hands after taking that dump?

[Jene-chan]

I got nothin'. Anyone else wanna take this one?

[milranduil]

see this is the kind of garbage that is offensive to people. you literally have no idea what you are talking about. instead of saying "oh maybe i should work more to improve my play", you just cop it up to better 'stats and tree'. a proper 13/14* weapon is enormous power over 1*. rising edge in this vid is doing 13k-14k whereas an endgame wep is 25-30k meaning half of your total power comes from weapon alone.

lol, you're actually offended by my statement regarding stats and tree? Don't get into political debates, you're gonna cry.

I do remember I had problems doing S rank as Husu back when it just released, but nowdays after so many buffs all classes got, this is just another cube farming method(and a very good one <3)

'lol are you offended' is the most peanut brain response ever lmao. expected from the ELEVEN MINUTE SOLO PD IN AUGUST 2018 player but still. it's almost inherently impressive how much you don't understand how this game works and blame everything but yourself wrt bad play

[nsm]

People here were actually trying to help you and try to discuss the game with you, instead you started vomiting in your own mouth and called it language. That’s the reason people mess with your room Sunshine.

[milranduil]

lol, you're actually offended by my statement regarding stats and tree? Don't get into political debates, you're gonna cry.

so you ignore everything of substance in my post and just focus on the word "offensive". this is exactly why no one wants to help you do shit.

[GHNeko]

all of your recent posts

i honestly dont even know where to begin

mil is not the nicest person on these forums; that much is true. he's not the type of person to say things in a soft manner.

but he is absolutely not the type of person to flaunt shit on psow. he actually tries to respond with helpful tips and/or tries to help you figure out what's actually holding you back and giving you problems.

i dont know what your deal is, but it's been proven time and time and time again that you don't actually know or understand this game at a deep enough level to argue the things that you try to argue. you've been proven wrong way more times than you've shown yourself to be right. at some point you need to just step back and actually parse helpful posts.

the fact that you try to use the fact that mil has played a lot of phantasy star at a high level as some means to insult the guy just shows how childish and petty you're being.

and before you try to answer back with "b-b-but other people are being childish/mean too!" that doesnt have any barring on what you're doing and how you're responding.

next, your solo pd time is absolutely awful relative to the average times you can find on youtube. A lot of high level runs are 4-5 mins now. You're almost 3 times as slow. with this fact established, it's clear that you're very undergeared at the very least, which makes the comment about stats/trees making up a bulk of your power such a ???? statement to make. this also shows that 99% likely that you also need to improve your general level of play to improve your time.

you can search on nico or youtube for "pso2 花 ソロ" and find that on average a lot of the times are half yours. there was even a guhu run of some soso player that still managed 10:25 and this is back in early 2017. if you want to narrow it down to fote, most of the runs are under 6 mins. within the last year, at least under 7-8 minutes.

i'm not going to comment on your skill though i feel that at this point anyone in this thread who's read the last dozen or so posts probably will call your skill into question as well. you speak like someone who rarely knows what they're talking about when it comes to really understanding how this game works.

so it's always so baffling that you so vehemently challenge someone who is obviously more skilled and experienced than you. you dont have to like the guy, but stop challenging someone when you obviously don't know and understand as much as other people do. it doesnt help you and you just keep exposing yourself over time.

[XrosBlader821]

I don't wanna further fuel the fire but Fo/Te is like one of the best classes when it comes to DPS. The currently fastest clear time is like 3 minutes and a half on YT. I remember that my fastest clear time on Te/Hu was around 8 minutes back in December when I still didn't have a Lavis (haven't bothered since). It really makes me wonder what took you so long with this run. ^^;

which is better, S1: Blue Ocean Flash or S2: Sturdy Recovery? i am making shien (Light, just for EQ) TMG and considering change from Gu/Hu to Gu/Fi, (atra is for other weapon and Gu/Fi needs some healing tool).

which is better, S1: Blue Ocean Flash or S2: Sturdy Recovery? i am making shien (Light, just for EQ) TMG and considering change from Gu/Hu to Gu/Fi, (atra is for other weapon and Gu/Fi needs some healing tool).

Probably the S2 due to TMGs high rate of fire for triggering the 10% chance to recover and higher ease of maintaining Perfect Keeper. The S1 requires you to actually take 600 damage so if you take anything less than that, you won't be able get Perfect Keeper back without getting a heal from an external factor or stopping to heal yourself.

[PenguinDeer]

Any chance there's a bow braver solo endless clear video? Or even just to 10m+?

which is better, S1: Blue Ocean Flash or S2: Sturdy Recovery? i am making shien (Light, just for EQ) TMG and considering change from Gu/Hu to Gu/Fi, (atra is for other weapon and Gu/Fi needs some healing tool).

I have tested using S1: Blue Flash Ocean alone and S1:Blue Flash & S2 Sturdy Recovery at once.
Using both of them at once is really nice, while only S1 Blue Flash alone kinda not as I expected but still good enough.
Either cases requires tanky build such as Flash Guards and great amount of HP.

Also I would prefer having more than 1200 HP to use S1:Blue Flash Ocean because if my HP goes below 50%, then my Mag action will heal me to full (8x HP Recovery B) and render the S1: Blue Flash recovery less effective.

Any clue if the anniversary shop goes away permanently after Aug 8th, wondering if I should buy the Weapons and stones now

I am 80% confident that the weapon and stone portion of the shop will stay around for people to be able to use up their badges (though the Homura Voucher exchange is definitely going away completely), but I don't know if there will be any way to get 6th Anniversary Badges since 2018 Badges are the only ones that drop outside of the LQ, and there is no 2018 Badge to 6th Anniversary Badge exchange.

At +20, it give additional 3 Attack PP recovery if hit weak point.
Weapon like TMG or Rifle will receive great benefit of PP recovery with that ring.

It was adjusted so the effect become ineffective for Hero class because it makes Hero TMG to have infinite PP for 40 second if aimed at weakpoint.

I still don't see it..my PP randomly has small increases while holding the PA button but I can't tell if it's from hitting the weak point or not..I don't think it is. My weapon matches the elemental weakness of the enemy so I dunno what's wrong..

Skills to avoid include Reverser Field, Mirage/Panic/Poison Boost, and Poison Ignition.
-Rare Mastery Techer, Long Time Assist, Shifta Strike, Deband Toughness, Reverser Field, and Wide Support require Techer to be the main class.

You seem to be misunderstanding those two lines you quoted; they are separate thoughts: the first is the list of what to avoid, and the second is indicating which skills are Main Class-only.

In fact, if you go into the guide's Skill Overview section you come across this:

-Deband Toughness is an even better skill than Deband Cut for increasing a player's ability to survive damage, and costs half the SP. This makes it a higher priority skill if seeking to increase personal durability, or the durability of other players.
The Skill Overview indicates that the only Main Class-only skill not recommended is Reverser Field, with all the others being recommended to one degree or another.

The ability to do so hasn't been implemented yet, but when it is with the next update, it will be via chat command (example: to freeze Pose 2 at 1.5 seconds, you would type "/la pose2 s1.5" [at least, I assume it is by seconds since that is what "s##" usually denotes]).

816 is a temp ban right. Did your friend use a VPN without static IP address? That'll surely get an account flagged.

Regarding account information. I doubt yours has any more information than mine, which is your account name and everything else left blank.

Your account should be just fine as long as you remember the email address used to register your account and avoid logging from a rogue IP address.

In case of new static address, you'll get an email with a password to enter on the ship login screen.

Hopefully that's the case, its been 6 years since I registered so I no longer have any idea of what I put down (other than maybe a security question which I sort of remember)

Any IP changes haven't really affected me much yet since I'm still connecting from the same machine, in my friend's case they weren't home for a few days and accessed the game on both their friend's PC as well as had another friend log in for them for the AC scratch tickets on days they couldn't get on, so that probably set off some red flags :wacko:

Thankfully they know kanji so they'll probably get their account back.

does one or either of the yokohate sword camos change apperance the same way akatsuki does when used together? or will it stay brick on a stick even after a JG?

The back end checks your location every time you log in. Let's say you log out and your friend logs into your account 10 minutes later 500 miles away, it flags the account since that's not physically possible.

So to be safe, the basic thumb rule is to log out and wait X hours (12-24 hours just to be safe) before logging back in if your next log in location is far away and you're not physically there (meaning VPN or someone else logging into your account)

The back end is just doing what it's told to do, which is to check your location when you log in. This is why rogue IP's are a no no.

In case you move and get a new ISP and address, this is fine. When you log in you'll be prompt to insert a code which is sent to your email address.

I hope this makes some sense.


Edit: As i recall, the registration process used to require a japanese street address and such details. Right now, it doesn't (made a dummy account to be sure) I haven't read the latest TOS but what this basically means is that anyone can make a PSO2 account from anywhere around the world. You don't have to be in japan or japanese to make an account.

SEGA is fully aware of ship 2 and its population. Changing the TOS (again, i need to read it) and making the registration process straightforward (account name, password, email and you're set) they have made a loophole which basically lets anyone access the game regardless if you're japanese or not.

The version that supports both Katana and Sword is "unsealed" when used; when used as a sword, the "brick" portion stays on your back, while the giant katana is in your hand.

At least as far back as October 2012 (when I registered for the game), you didn't need to input an address to register for the game, but if you wanted to purchase AC you did need to input one along with a "real name", even if you were just doing it through Webmoney.

It's not answered because it's far too wide and subjective of a subject in too many aspects. Right now, general agreement puts Gunner, Hero and Force as the strongest versatile classes in the game, although they do have their own strifes and shortcomings. Game is pretty balanced so most of the other classes are all viable and can come close or even to said top classes depending on what content you're running, maybe aside from Gunner's raid bossing abilities which are unparalleled in the game, but they are very hard to leverage anyway, on top of being boom or bust.

For any specific ring/class setup, feel free to use the class discussion threads to get information from people that are actually dedicated to their classes and can provide accurate and in-depth advice

How can he fix this issue and recover his password (he doesn't remember the security question or the dob he entered)?

The problem is precisely that his name is in romaji.
He must have made the input with full width letters upon registration (otherwise it doesn't proceed).
Also for crying out loud just register with actually accurate infos, that way you don't have to second guess what lie you were inspired to tell late at night in your drunken student days when you registered that wacky anime thing site game rpg.

But there aren't going to be new weapons for those crests. The new crests coming out will only be able to become the old ones, not the other way around, so there's no point in saving them for something that isn't already in the shop.

Kazami no tachi, it's up to you if you going get that katana as katana user or just stick with your current katana.
But as bow user, that 14* katana is recommended to get for Braver Combination skill. It enable you to charge katana gear by holding guard even in campship.

It does recharge katana gear slowly when in unsheathed state but holding guard recharge faster, 5 seconds from empty gear.

It applies to Hero Boost (the first Skill on the tree that gives you a 60% boost over time that resets when you are hit), not Hero Gear/Time. Basically, it helps you get to full Hero Boost faster which is super useful to get you back to full power if you lose it from taking too much damage from some errant attack you weren't able to avoid.

With the initial arrival of King's Crests, Conqueror's Crests will no longer be available from campaigns or as drops, but you can trade King's Crests for them (trade in 1 King's Crest to get 2 Conqueror's Crests); at a later date, Conqueror's Crests will be available as drops from pre-EP4 Raid bosses and Bonus Quests.

[Hysteria1987]

I started up a quick Enchanted Forest, and ticked the '1 person' flag when making the party as I just wanted to whip through it for the crest campaign. I didn't bother putting up a password. However, on my second run, two people joined my party. I double-checked my party settings, and the flag was definitely on.

I assumed the '1 person' flag would literally make you an MPA of your own that nobody else could join, let alone join your party - what does it actually do?

[Will_2_Power]

By "flag" I assume you mean the check box?

Taken from the official PSO2 site on "Party Management" (use Google Translate):

http://pso2.jp/players/manual/preparations/party/management/

I think the check box that you checked was for "1 Play Only" (for the"Play Style Option"):

And using Google Translate:

"Select the play style of the party. This play style is information for participating members to the last, it does not limit participation itself as a function.
By entering a check in "Welcome to join", you can set welcome welcome. When you set a welcome welcome, it will be displayed preferentially in the quest selection of the quest counter. If the party setting welcome has reached the party member's limit by the accompanying partner, the partner will return by players participation.
If you decide to dissolve a party in Quest 1 play, you can tell the party member and the user who is about to participate by putting a check in "1 play only"."

So in other words, by checking the box named "1 Play Only" you're basically just telling the other players that you're only going to do the run 1 (single) time, this doesn't prevent you from having others joining your party.

However, if you want NO ONE to join your party, then create a password (just like what you said above) and check the 2nd box (bottom one) in the Password option.

I've never worked with transfering Phrase Weak before so I have a question.

Is Phrase Weak a special affix that works like SSAs in that you can transfer from weapon to weapon to weapon to weapon without losing it OR can you can only transfer it once?

I need to know because I'm planning on affixing an 8-slotted Atra TMG to:

3/3/4/LifeSteal/Astral/EtherFactor/PhraseWeak/GraceShoot

and am not sure if I need to affix Factor Catalyst onto a Phrase Weak weapon fodder.

Non-SSA unique SAFs are one-time-only if the weapon it is affixed to is not the weapon that has it as an SAF. So in your case, even if your Atra already has Phrase Weak on it, you would need a new Phrase Weak fodder to have it on your final product.

^Thanks, Sir Anduril.

Just an addendum, you can also use a weapon with phrase receptor to transfer an already affixed Phrase onto another weapon. Phrase receptor weapons never come at more than 6 slots tho so it's not useful in your case, but could be for whatever else you might plan in the future

[Mr3chi]

flowing resets when you switch between wps, it is fine for gu, but maybe not hr. with s1 double edgy can be a good choice.

[Jene-chan]

If it's for Gu and you can afford it, just do S1: Double-Edged Sword. 80% of the time as Gu you're not in the killbox and even when you do get hit, 8% more damage taken can easily be fixed with Vampiric Strike.

You can run that but Gunner is one of the classes that can actually get close to 100% Critical rate within it's effective range so I personally use S2/S3 for 4% Critical damage but it's up to you. Having both Double-Edged seems risky with only 1200HP but it's up to your own comfort level honestly. If you feel confident that you can avoid getting hit by most things, I don't see an issue with it but if you find yourself dying a lot, it may not be a good idea.

On this specific simulation, you just need a soul receptor fodder to boost the soul's transfer at 100%, and historia/fabula soul fodder to boost Loser reverie (70% before upslot)

I've been avoiding affixing like the plague for the last couple of years, but it's about time I got it done.

Note, I haven't really seen pricings for T-ATK+PP/3, but I'm assuming they are reasonable. And the Soul is whatever is high on T-ATK that is still fairly obtainable.
Some slight changes to your formula will help your chances greatly: here (http://arks-layer.com/abilitysim/#!tjsVdZILGdaxFDsexKEtEsjKJGCtEsbIJrmsJxcUrmsKVxjF xWFxgFxbErmsLVk2zsMGtDsaxbDtK2RxFD2g2ssMVtIxMFxRI2 FybEsNVtCAsNNxWQtisVy5FsGyLFxhFyyFtfsVaJPG2rsO)

However, since you are working with a Grace Technique, I would recommend not upslotting and working directly with 5s fodders so that you can have 100% chance of success: here (http://arks-layer.com/abilitysim/#!tjsVtEsjKJGtKsZIxFDsaxFEsbxFEscxFDsCtExLDrmsJxhZ rmsKxbasLVk2MsMGtDsaxgRrmsMVtIxRFx2TsNVtCAsNNxbVti sVzVFsGyaFxmFzCErmtfsVaJPG2wsN). This would require you to upslot your Modulator fodder and your S3:Skilled Strike fodder, but it may be cheaper to repurchase the rest off of player shops.

Other T-ATK souls you may want to work with are Guranz Soul and Magi the Soul. To affix Guranz Soul, simply replace Apprentice Soul with Guranz Soul in the above recipes. To affix Magi the Soul, you only need to make a couple of adjustments: here (http://arks-layer.com/abilitysim/#!tjsVtEsjKJGtKsZIxFDsaxFEsbxFEscxFDsCtExLDrmsJxhZ rmsKxbasLVk2MsMxbVsMVtDsax2XsNVtCsiKKxbVtisVzVFsGy aFtDsgLIGzCErmtfsVaJPG2wsN)

actually i will use S2: Double edge sword. i'm not a fan of crit if only 75% with S2: skilled strike 2. isn't that using both double edge sword is risky? (8%+6%, that's 14% more damage). and i'm planning using gunner at 1200+ hp range (shine red - phobos arm - tag bode). and 150pp range.

While DES is okay on gunner, it is not okay on hero. You do not want to be losing hero boost. You also do not want to go crit strike on hero. 60% crit on weak point isn’t nearly as amazing as it sounds.

[Sirius-91]

While DES is okay on gunner, it is not okay on hero. You do not want to be losing hero boost.

What are you talking about? It's fine. If you're the type who gets hit a lot, then yes it's not okay. But if you just simply avoid getting hit, then the payoff is amazing.

[ArcaneTechs]

What are you talking about? It's fine. If you're the type who gets hit a lot, then yes it's not okay. But if you just simply avoid getting hit, then the payoff is amazing.

its really not honestly

[Zephyrion]

What are you talking about? It's fine. If you're the type who gets hit a lot, then yes it's not okay. But if you just simply avoid getting hit, then the payoff is amazing.

Double Edge isn't a problem on big hits since they reset you anyway so it's on you. What's the real plague when you play Hero is some of the hard to avoid spams and offscreen mob swipes that generally put you on the brink of a reset on normal conditions ( most "small" hits hit for 200-300). DES is often just enough to push those hits into reset territory.

Not to mention the payoff isn't nearly as good now we have SSAs competing with it like powering intent (yeah it only works on bosses but most mobs will die in the same number of PA/moves regardless of whether the 4% is here or not, and when facing tougher enemies (typically bosses) you get a 4% boost without condition or drawback.

[Jene-chan]

I only really recommend DES for Gunner since you can easily avoid most incoming damage and regen easily if you do get hit. Maybe also for Fighter if you're running the no Automate build as well but I'm not as well versed on that so I can't say for sure if that's something people would actually do.

is affix S1:Red Petal Flash good ?

[Mr3chi]

it's hard to say, sometime dealing 450k in 30s is hard, boss running around, you running around, resist buff, sega buff. it's quite inconsistent compared to other s1

[Zephyrion]

is affix S1:Red Petal Flash good ?

It's a solid budget S1, provided you know its drawbacks

main drawback is it fully resets upon switching weapons (by fully I mean you lose the 3% and damage tracking goes back to 0) so you gotta make sure you don't put it on a class that has to change weapons often
450k in 30 seconds sounds scary, but it's actually very easy to upkeep in most situation : the only requirement is dealing 15k damage per second which is not that hard with current gear lineup. and even if you fail to meet the requirement it's not that big of an issue, because red petal constantly tracks your damage (say you only dealt 400k damage in 30 seconds, then petal will re-activate after you deal an additional 50k damage). Additionally the count resets to 30 seconds every 450k dealt, regardless of how much time you got left on your previous activation, so in a lot of content, if you play cleanly, it's a consistent 3%

The only place where it's really hard to upkeep is rematch content + guides EQ because your damage is effectively halved, making it a much harder requirement to meet

[Saffran]

The Importer : you can exchange those for maxed out Triple Pancakes. It's the only use I can think of right now. Mayyybe if you get one those odd 13 stars unexpectedly and you're not really confident you can find another one reliably? Otherwise, I got nothing.

[Loveless62]

The Attribute Enhance 10% was introduced around the time that Ares OT was hot shit (I think) and made a lot more sense back then. Now you can just fix the element of a 13* with demon 13*s from the shops.

You could use it now if somehow you fuck up and convert a 13* to a 14* before you max. Hopefully one would be more careful than that.

[Mr3chi]

tbh i find anga farming better than just running around like what ppl doing nowaday. rushing, joining (miss that good shit), mobbing, bossing. sega relaxed gryphon 13*, ppl went nuts on it and sega was like 'fuck this shit, it annoys me' then fixed everything.

[Unlmtd]

Can weak stance now be used alongside average stance on BR now that average stance is a passive skill? Would weak stance lower my dmg in any way on non-weak points?

[Kondibon]

I think Atra is the easiest by getting S4 of Atra Gunslash for life steal (fully affix Atra Gunslash for R-Atk (don't forget Val Gunslash have S1 as SAF if you want it), then switch it to Atra Tmg)

As for affixes itself, should depends on how you want to play and available budget (I'm not good at finding the cheapest way for affixes, so, might want to wait for other people to comment (add your budget and preferences like minimum HP / PP to have))

only 3 310「ハギト・フェムト」remains on player shop in ship 2 ... can happen once last 3 get sold i cant get this LA anymore? i saving my meseta as long until i buy it

some ppl can still hold some either some comes from ship transfer. there are plenty chances to get it so don't worry.

thank you for the answer Jene-chan. sry for the late reply because i'm seldom to use forums.

another question. how much minimum dps now to get 4 run boosted magatsu? 110k dps? i am at 70-85k dps using DB Bo/Fi and still can't carry the MPA to get 4 run.

[Jene-chan]

You can't carry an MPA in boosted Magatsu as one person. Looking at at some of my boosted Magatsu parses from May where my Gunner group got consistent 4 runs, it looks like you need at least 600K rDPS to make that happen.

[nyaaaaa]

Which 'Lesser __ I' items are worth keeping (for resale; I doubt I will ever attempt anything with them)? When I came back a couple of weeks ago and first noticed them, I thought they were sort of pricey at the time, but now with affix week when everything is 10x price, I searched for some and they were 40k/not-worth-keeping value basically. I only ran the quest once yesterday out of curiosity (on SH), and one of the drops was an 8s unit with two Lesser I on it, so I figure it is (probably?) worth keeping, but not sure about the other couple of items.

.

Also, I was going to semi-budget version affix my Zeinesis set of units before I quit for a while several months ago, so I upslotted them but never affixed them. Are they still worth it, or should I save my good affix stuff for slightly better units and until then just use enough-to-get-by on them? The sub-units from the title reward basically had the same setup I was originally planning anyway (and aren't that bad tbh, or for 'free stuff' anyway), so haven't bothered until now, but with affix week, might as well. Also, I have looked up all the stats for all of them, but most of the 12* seem close enough to almost not matter that much (aside from 'really old vs shiny new ones'/aka power creep), or the differences were something you could counter by affixing them slightly differently, etc.

For 12* units, I currently have (in case any are better):
Rear: one Zein and a Guryuzo--uh, an older one that is T-Atk based (I play RA/HU, so doesn't look worth it to me). I also have 4k+ Battle Coins, so kind of considering one of those as well (80 Atk is nice).
Arm: Several Zein and an Astra
Leg: more Zein, two Astra, one Ivurida.

Have 175 fuses if the Qilph versions are worth a shout as well (or should I save them for the weapons? Still using my Zein AR atm, but not sure if they have been 'phased out' already or not).

I also have the one new Bonus Key they added while I was not playing (the one they gave for free the other day; haven't actually gotten one myself yet, assuming they are fairly rare?), that can apparently drop Izane units (not holding my breath) that I will probably run soon but for some reason haven't yet.

[Mr3chi]

yep. reminds me that i saw one for 40m couple days ago, thought ppl cutting it but looks like it isn't. got mine already for so long so i don't really care. rappy la is now on net cafe so maybe this LA could have a revival. just a remind before wasting the among of money on a LA (other me: bought rappy for 65m .-.)

Is there a way to keep the Support Partner unequipped? What I mean is, I don't want him to have a weapon or unit equipped, not even 1*, until I'm done with affix week. Or do I have to use temporary 1* equipment till I'm done?

(the reason I ask is because I normally have him equipped with 14* weap / 12* units for max stats)

[final_attack]

Uh ..... I was wondering .... how much is the estimated cost with unit affixes these days?

For :
- 150ish R-Atk
- 160ish R-Atk
- 170ish R-Atk
- 180ish R-Atk
Oh, and PP doesn't matter. I'm fine with 0 PP on affixes (or up to -10 since default PP is 110)

Well, not gonna affix it atm, since I don't have the meseta needed, but would like to know the estimates to prepare for next one.
Thanks! :D

[pso2god]

for pure atk 220 r-atk and below is all affordable with ~30m meseta (depending on ship and when you purchase fodder)
prices will change by the time next boost week comes around anyway though

Final Attack > I don't see anyone answering but with the new Apprentice EQ around there has been a ton of Apprentice + Apprezina fodders.
If you do something like Soul + Reverie + Shoot (+ Spirita) + Elegant you should be at 150 ratk and the most expensive thing would be the elegant shoot.

Right now the AC scratch has good items in the rotation, maybe you got one? I don't know if it ends today or if it lasts longer though.
With the Dudu bonus week right now you only need 2 fodders for most things so either you devise a fire-proof recipe or you just plan it out for the next bonus week...

The one I quoted before said it can cost 30m ..... but, I'm personally not sure what the affixes are :<

Thank you!

[Saffran]

It depends what the 220 Ratk entail.
Some units give Atk bonus (most 12 stars units do).
I have seen a lot of people using the special bonus of the Rare Drop Level 5 Crafting which can give 70 atk if you ask the correct person but I have no idea if you can simply find that specific bonus on the visiophone.
If you go with Bode Units and affix Apprentice + Reverie + Shoot 4 + Ability 3 + (GRM or Noble/Elegant) + craft for 70ATK you are around 260 Ratk.

A "true" +220 Ratk would be Apprentice + Reverie + Shoot 4 + Arks Max + Lesser Shoot 4 + Grace Shot but that's quite an ordeal. Unless you actually got a Grace Shot with the AC tickets this month it's going to be more than 10m each unit.

Ah ..... I didn't thought of that (including ★１２unit stats)

The "true" one seems to be too much than I can chew _(:3」
AndI assume it won't be able to reach all 100%?

[Saffran]

Lesser Shot 4 only goes up to 30% so that's 40% during boost week + 40% item which makes 80%.
Of course if you are playing Endless quest a lot you could create plenty of Lesser 4 fodders and transfer it, transfering lesser abilites is 100% with 3 fodders.

The rest can go to 100% if you start with 6 slots.

So that's how the high atk units are made? In that case I go with Shine Red(+80)+crafting(+70)+App Soul(+40)+Shoot 3(+30)=220 R-Atk. Never knew that you could reach over 200 with only 2 abilities, I thought that you need 6 or 7 for that. /s

I'm pretty sure they meant the recipe itself, although that price estimation is incredibly optimistic
Till the Soul > Shoot IV > Arks Max > Apprezina Reverie > EV Shoot HP/PP > Grace Shoot is 220 ATK affix, and surprisingly, if you upslot Arks Max by yourself, the total price tag can be pretty low for all the affixes involved here, except EV
EV is kind of a bitch to make, as it is pretty RNG and can completely sink your cubes (and money if you didn't stock on lesser fodders) depending on your Dudu luck. provided you're incredibly lucky, this could cost around 30M and around 1000 cubes... but we all know item lab isn't that generous xD

[Saffran]

I wouldn't recommend EV to someone asking for directions around affixing. It needs either the bonus week or some untradable items to get to 100%...

[final_attack]

Ah .... all right then, thanks! :D
I'll hold the money for now, probably gonna look around, waiting for what next update gives _(:3」

EV is actually great return on a unit and very workable, due to the fast it only take up to 2 fodders, making it a lot easier to make recipe for 6s units unlike other "high end affixes" like Ether factor or Astral Soul. Also, unlike returner, the low base price of lesser combined to having a constantly accessible piece of contentwhere you can farm it makes it pretty accessible meseta-wise. Finally the affix itself (notably HP) is huge. 35 ATK +60 HP makes for a pretty solid affix which possibly allows you to stack the equivalent of Stat IV + Stamina IV twice on a single unit.

I won't argue with the absolute pain in the butt it is to make, or how much of a resource sink it is, or how you need a boost week to make this remotely safe. But EV is definitely one of the most viable "strong" affixes out there, and definitely the most flexible

the bad thing is when you failed one or maybe two 4=>5 units and paid extra price for those lesser i. i sold like 250+ lesser1 6s for 800k (bought 50-100k) and ~100 lesser1 7s for 1m-1m5 (bought 300k-350k, very early) in last week. gotta love those free money. the stat isn't bad, but bad scaling or high variance doesn't worth it. you can interpret the thing better in information theory, it's a case of probability, decent low surprisal but high entropy. paying for extra slots (7s/even 8s on units) is still (yeah for me) better than that, especially for anyone who has better mst/cube ratio.

How is SSA ability swap works? are the fodder gone to the main wepon, or both weapon stay in your inventory?

example:
Val A 8s, 1 SSA
Val B 6s, 2 SSA

Val A taking 2 SSA from B
Result:
Val A had to discard 2 affix to fit 2 SSA
Val B become 4s

There is yes/no confirmation, so I didn't fully test the case.
But the "swap" did light up even though there are empty slots.
Kinda wondering if I can "mass produce" with SSA SAF.

how does the zieg exchange for a ares 14* work? i know it ask both goldnia and saphard and a qliphad unit

i have a unit for spare but it won´t show on the menu to exchange, i am missing something?

I'm not sure where you are seeing that it requires a Qliphad Unit.
His exchange only works to swap between different Ares-NT weapons; you cannot use his exchange without already having an Ares-NT weapon.
For example, say you got an Ares-NT Rifle but you don't need it, you can take it to him along with 999 Goldnia and 999 Saphard and get an Ares-NT Sword. The Ares-NT Tact is the only one that can't be used to exchange for a different weapon type.

[Sayara]

The english patch is showing the Ares NT wep requirement as a Qilphad Unit instead of an Ares NT wep.

then it is a mistake from the translations patch

thank you very much

[Anduril]

The english patch is showing the Ares NT wep requirement as a Qilphad Unit instead of an Ares NT wep.

It looks like it was fixed as of the past couple of hours (I got a patch update just before I logged in for the last OF Apprentice) since it is showing as "Ares-NT Weapon" for me.

Val A 8s, 1 SSA
Val B 6s, 2 SSA

If one weapon gains more SSA than it originally started with, then you have to choose one to delete from the now "overloaded" weapon, and you also have to lose a slot on the other weapon.

If there are an equal number of SSAs between both weapons you choose with the same grades, you will not have to sacrifice a single slot or affix.



Kinda wondering if I can "mass produce" with SSA SAF.

You can totally do this. You can create a +35 weapon with SSAF and keep reaffixing it, and swapping from it to get as many weapons as you want with said SSAF. The only thing you can't do is sell it on the market, as swapping will register the weapons to you.

[Mr3chi]

my first exp:
wp1: can take all (ssa1 + ssa2) + regular affix1
wp2: can take left (ssa1 + ssa2) + regular affix2
good: very intuitive, cheaper than reaffix.
bad: high fee, 8s 3ssa (on main) takes like 1m, 4ssa 2m. good for sega mst recall
ugly: looks like locked 13* would never be able to sell.

Can't help but notice the first blood clone skill doesn't effect step attack. At least for Br. Is this working as intended?

IMO yes, it's working as intended.
because there still Step JA skill & ring available.

Nah, my mistake. I somehow thought you got all affixes in a big pool and had to choose them back to put them on their respective weapons, but the regular affixes are still tied to their original holder.

[Zephyrion]

Yes, unlike first Blood, the new skill doesn't add a JA bonus to things that don't have a innate JA window (step normals, dive roll shoot, Katana counter,S-roll normals and probably other things).

[Moffen]

Its a bit disappointing,i thought rangers would finally be on even ground with dive roll shoot getting the JA since we dont get a JA circle with the ring added.
Sucks man.

Dive roll shot is not that important for Ranger.
To able immediately use Launcher PAs or SatCan & End.A without need preparation is already too great.

Hi there, anyone here know to connect to PSO2 on PS4 version? Im living in the SEA region and the IP ban is still a thing here. On the PC version, i can play the game normally by using a proxy from tweaker. Now that ive recently got hold of a PS4 on me and manage to download it, how do i connect to the game now? I tried to log on but i got the usual greyed out ship. Is there a way i can bypass this?

[otakun]

what the chat command to freeze LAs?

[NightlightPro]

what the chat command to freeze LAs?

something like this: /la dance1 s2.5

[Anduril]

what the chat command to freeze LAs?
Assuming you have Premium, the chat command is "/la (lobbyaction) s#.#"; this will freeze the lobby action at the time set after the "s" (so if you put s1.2, it will freeze 1.2 seconds into the lobby action) and if the lobby action ends before that amount of time you set, it will freeze at the end of the lobby action.
Also, just a note, I think it only freezes on your end and everyone else will see you do the full lobby action.*

*at least that's what I think this is saying, though it may just be saying that imitating someone using the freeze command won't work:

I believe the only way you can do it is by setting up a VPN, but I don't think there is any way to load any VPN software onto a PS4, so you either need to do it via your router or by setting one up on your PC and connecting the PS4 using Windows' internet sharing feature. I don't have details on how to do either, but I'm sure a Google search will be able to pull up guides and such on the subject.

For clarification/reminder, for PSO2 day, are Arks Rappy enemies the 'rare enemy version' of a Rappy that might show up, or do all Rappy enemies that appear that day become the Arks version?

Also, which quests/types of quests are best for running for the best odds of getting them to show up (aside from ideally running highest level possible for best drops)? When I recently came back, it was shortly before last month's PSO2 day, and I managed to play 6 or so hours that day, running different types of quests, but never saw a single Rappy appear, so any improvement on that would be ideal.

And did anything change with Nyau's in the last 8 or so months? Before, it was extremely rare for them to not call a secondary boss after defeating them (via their weapon after they toss it), but since I have come back it is about 80% of the time where they won't call one now. Or maybe just PSO2's RNG welcoming me back?

For the Arks Rappy,every 2nd of the month (JP timezone) the seasonal or regular rappy is replaced with an Arks Rappy. Every possible rappy spawn (besides fixed spawns like xq special floors) is an Arks Rappy.
Most people will be running Enchanted Forest Exploration XH as its the most popular free field,has all the Ep4 14*s and yields rappy code arrest etrials often along with random spawns.

its hard to say, it factors in if you're only logging in for EQ's, actually running current content etc spamming solo PD Trigs though is the quickest way for cubes with an average of 30-50 cubes a run

How can I obtain a costume color change ticket?

You get them from the Recycle Shop either by trading 14 AC Scratch Items1 or 1 Rappy Suit2.

1 AC Scratch items have an outline like this:

2 It must be a regular Rappy Suit or colored Rappy Suit (ie. White Rappy Suit, Green Rappy Suit, etc.); seasonal Rappy Suits (ie. St. Rappy Suit, Summer Rappy Suit, etc.) will not work.

How does the "Add Abilities" function?

[Anduril]

How does the "Add Abilities" function?

First, just so you are aware as you look around, the more common name you'll see in discussion for "Abilities" is "Affixes."
Here's the short of the long of it:, Affixing is how you add extra stats on Weapons and Units; you can either transfer these directly from other Units/Weapons, with exceptions, or synthesize them by combining other affixes. This guide is a bit outdated in terms of some additional affixes and systems (ie. SAFs and SSAs) that have been released since then, but the basic information in it is a good starting point.

Is Hybrid BrHu (Katana + Bow) still viable, like back in the "old days"?

Or is the meta Average + Weak Stance pure-Katana BrHu these days?

lv 85 skill has ability to make katana gear useable on bow so i think it is a yes for bow

there is very few reasons to take a real hybrid tree for brhu these days with both weapons. no content demands being able to do high damage with bow for extended periods of time, even endless quest. i'd recommend dual stance katana.

[Will_2_Power]

Alright, thanks for the responses, guys.

I'll just go Dual-Stance Katana BrHu.

Um .... question regarding the new S-affix system (exchange? or something >.< )

If I have :
- main Atra Weapon (8s) : S1, S3, S4 + 5 affix
- fodder Bal Weapon (8s) : S1, S2, S3 + 5 random affix

If I use the system, it'll become Atra (S1, S2, S3) from fodder + 5 affix?
Or I can choose any S1 / S2 / S3 / S4 from both main and fodder, with the rest went to fodder?

Any explanation? >.<

Thanks!

Can choose any S1 / S2 / S3 / S4 from both main and fodder.
Non-SSA affix stays at their own place.

If S2 from fodder move to 8s Atra that don't have S2, then Atra had to remove one of affix(either SSA or non-SSA).
As for the fodder, it become S1, S3 + 5 affix

And .... I take it we can't move S4 from Atra to Val, right?
Since it must have the necessary slot (S4 slot in this case)?
