is there any way to obtain nowadays Aura weapons? or a better way to optain a increase grind cap item without breaking my back? i really like the aura rod skin for my ph, but i only managed to get 1 on the day, and the silly weapon form conversion requires both items to be fully grinded

It's an Odin drop, so parallel area XD
The "Mars" serie have the same design with a different color, Sega will probably bring it as CF+30 grind for In the diving rain 2019

I know that buffing and healing is possible during those 2 phases, maybe movement as well. It is possible someone has found out exactly how much forward they have to move and how much turning they need to do in order to start hitting the boss without requiring lock-on. Maybe using PA/Techs from subpallette is possible while from weapon isn't.

Based on the map everyone was still in the first area (with the portal) during the cutscene, but the person DPSing was in the next area (on the map too) dpsing him. We got double mask and he was able to start dealing damage before persona even warped away to do his long intermission attack.

And it wasn't just using skills, he was in the air doing gunner chains on the side of him.

Does anyone know if the RA Stinger is gonna become part of Zieg's 14* exchange at some point?

It looks like only Raid 14*s get to be Crest Weapons while Seasonal EQ 14*s are going to be added to the SP CF. The SP CF rate can be a pain, but remember, you can also use PSO2es to get a bit of progress done on them.

Can you evolve a pet into the S version if you get an S egg?

[Kondibon]

Can you evolve a pet into the S version if you get an S egg?
If the target egg is an s-egg yes, if you change the pet into the unevolved s version then evolving it with a normal evolved egg won't let you though, the egg being used to evolve the pet needs to be an s-egg.

were nazonde crafted always this strong? or is it just my end which incorrectly displaying power value?

There are 3 available right now.

The ones that involve story require you to complete the entirety of EP5 Chapter 4/The Kingdom of Epic arc (For the first one), and the first playable mission of chapter 6 (For the second one).

The third one you get after taking two classes to lv75.


So, about Leontina certificate B. Got the EP6 one but not the EP5 ones despite to have cleared it long ago. I did again the quests parts just to be 100% sure everything was S ranked. Got noting still :( https://i.imgur.com/xfwWayj.jpg

whats the best EQ to fill up the sp sheet for the 14* weapons? it feels to me that it fill just too slow to be true, i went to a couple of runs of the seasonal EQ and that one with Mother and Deus using a 150% tri boost and a 250% exp boost and it only raised about 0.60% for each run

[Dark Mits]

Lower level EQs give lower progress I think. The only advice I can give is (1) run EQs that can be run multiple times (like Easter) on SH with a fast group, (2) use PSO2es Collection File advancing feature (if you're lucky and get a Great Success, it may get 5%) or (3) purchase Premium (I think Premium has fill up bonus on these CFs?)

[Anduril]

The rates are as follows at 100% RDR (ie. no boost of any kind) per XH EQ run:
Ability Success +40%: 0.11%
Ability Success +30%: 0.23%
Grind Success +50%: 0.51%

Since the Ability Success +40% is the one with the lowest rate, let's just focus on that one.

Without Premium the basic formula is this: (1+additional RDR in decimal form)*0.11)
So with a 250%RDR Booster and 50% Daily Triboost you would have:
(1+3)*0.11=0.44

Premium will double your gain in addition to giving an additional 50%RDR
[formula: (1.5+additional RDR in decimal form)*0.11)*2] note: it rounds down to two decimal places before doubling
So with Premium and 250%RDR&50% Daily Triboost you get:
((1.5+3)*0.11)*2=0.98

With PSO2es, you will get 2.4% to one item on the sheet for a normal collect search, and 7.2% to two items with a Great Success.

[Batty]

thanks for the answers :) so the best way would be to run SH multiple run EQs instead of XH for faster runs i see.

may i know how exactly does the PSO2es Collection File advancing feature works exactly? i havent played es in a long time, and its the first time i hear about this feature

Yes, because even though there is a slight decrease in collect rate on SH (~0.08% base rather than 0.11% from XH), if you can get more runs in, you can easily get more net collect rate in the same amount of time.

Collect Search in PSO2es is really simple, actually. You tap on the Rappy icon, then the golden sword icon, and you select one of your CF files; you will then gain a small percentage on one of the items at random on that file (you can get a higher percentage on multiple items if you get a Great Success). You get one free one a day (resetting at 5AMJST), and you can do it additional times by paying AC. Also, just note, you cannot actually get the item in PSO2es, rather, when it hits 100% it will tell you to complete it in the main game.

Is Ph looking to be a good sub for Te? I think Hu was best before(?) but I don't know the full reasons why to make a comparison, or if there is something I'm missing by just looking at the skill trees plainly.

Also, with the changes to Zanverse, is there *any* way to scale Zanverse damage now, or is it always 20%?

Lastly, did the Episode 6 changes to Lavis Cannon/Atlas S4 make them weak, or are they still great?

Te/Ph falls into the Hybrid Te category versus Te/Hu being the Melee Te combo; basically, if you want to have boosts to compounds and be able to actually use Tech damage, you would go Hybrid, but if you just want to concentrate on face-tanking and Wand wacking while throwing out basic Support Techs, you go Te/Hu.
As for Te/Ph as a combo:

Ph Subclass harmonizes extremely well, even though Tech Short charge is hit or miss (in terms or Ramegid definitely a miss) but the faster Tech charge time speeds up gameplay sooooo much especially when Territory Burst Techs are concerned. Zanverse, Zondeel, S/D and so on getting all the TSC benefits without the negatives is a godsend, faster walking speed during charge time. Way less time wasted with supporting party, while still supporting party, and way more time spent dealing damage. ... Ph having Tech Charge JA Addition also free's up one SP on my Te side of things so that's nice QoL thing as well. Step Roll Advance only boosting Step by 0.13s is slightly disappointing but it's better than nothing. ...The two PP restorates stacking is just fantastic and the slightly improved PP recovery on normal attacks is welcome as well. The multipliers being a lot better when it comes to bonking but slightly lagging behind Te/Hu is a price i'm willing to pay since the good tech multipliers make up for it (even if they're not as great as Fi sub). Also not having to deal with conditionals like the Fi stances just great even if skilled players who utilized both stances will see a DPS dip going into Ph sub. Dex Mag is pretty cool, even though I think Te should have their own. It's not too much of a improvement though since you can achieve a identical effect by using T-ATK mag and dumping 30 sp into S-ATK up on Fi sub.

Zanverse cannot be scaled in any way.

Lavis Cannon and Atlas S4 are still good becuase they have no hit-stop, which all other Wands still have.

Elemental Stance, does it work for weapons and techs or just techs? Trying to find out if this would help for my Atlas Slecht's S4:Genesis Ring.

Off-topic, has translation for EP6's story started?

[Batty]

recently i obtain a profound sword and a jutus sword drop from persona and enchanted forest respectively, so im now aiming to obtain 15* sword for my hero. i was wondering wich of both is faster to obtain/better for hero?

[Crevox]

Lightstream should be the best, so as long as you haven't already used up your free circular stone just kill Dark Falz Persona 50 times total to get it from a title.

You can upgrade any Profound weapon you have at that point to Celestial and then to Lightstream (or if you're lucky, a Celestial will drop and save you time and money). It doesn't have to be a sword since you can convert any Lightstream weapon to any other once it's made (ideally you would upgrade whichever has 8 abilities). This does cost meseta (Gol materials) but may be less than dealing with upslotting and/or farming for whichever weapon types you're missing to upgrade.

unless you have the mats to make Lumiere sword (+35 Jutus, +35 Val, +35 Demon sword) and extra Chronos stones, I recommend going for Lightstream if you didnt already use your Amphrodite stone for something else

I got 2 questions regarding exchanges for Austere-NT materials:

When you exchange 2 Invade-NTs with Zieg for another, will it always be at grind level 30?

When you upgrade an OT Nemesis/Slave version to NT, will it be a grind level 35 (like Tokyo upgrades)?

Yes, Invade exchanged will be at grind cap 30, unless they have changed this, which I doubt.

Yes, OT Weapons that turn into NT will have their grind cap at 35 if you select the OT weapon and not any of the others. For example if you are converting an OT Slave Sword and then have 3 other Slave NT weapons with only 31~34 and you select one of the NT fodders because it has 8s on it, it will have the grind cap of that weapon. So be cautious when it asks you what weapon abilities and attributes you want to go on the new NT weapon.

yes, in total you need about 12 NT's to +35 it (or w/e the difference is of the one youre trying to cap to +35)

when you upgrade from OT to NT on Nem/Slave make you PICK the OT as the BASE (inherit) so that it will have that +35 cap, do not pick any of the NT's as a base even if it has high slots otherwise you'll end up with w/e NT you used as a base cap level. I word it this way because people in the past have made mistakes (and its stupid Sega doesnt just make it +35 anyways) trading these in

[Sriracha X]

Thanks. Looks like I'll be able to exchange materials to make a 2nd Austere-NT then

Also, Aki mentions how some of her data was used for the experiments with dragons and darkers.

how do i obtain that free circular stone? i never got one afaik. Also yeah, i have both a Jutus and a profound weapon with the cap allready unlocked to +35 because it was a drop. what im seeing that is the biggest time spending one here is that for the Atlas Ex i need rougly 660 Scleasis booster; 600 to trade 60 schevelle, and 60 more for the evleda. and the biggest time spending one for the lightstream now that i have a Jutus are the roughly 1900 2019 weapon badges i need for all the required weapons to upgrade to lumiere

im kinda tilting towards Atlas Ex for this because is less stones to farm, and also have a chance to skip a whole step if i get lucky and get a lumiere drop directly and also the one i dont have to wait for a spesific EQ (persona) in order to farm one of the needed materials (erebos stone)

Probably insomuch that Su might a higher drop rate of eggs in general (though I think 14* eggs might not benefit from class boost).

No, it is purely visual.

I noticed my same skill seems to reduce PP by a varying amount (base PP cost 5, but seems to be reducing it by 3-4 randomly between usage).

Does this mean PP costs are actually not rounded to an integer after PP cost reductions and PP is actually a floating point number that isn't displayed? Or is there some other phenomenon going on here?

Yea, I believe it's like that. If I remember it right, Lv2 APPR will make Tmg PP recovery to 1.2 .... so, 1 PP recovered per shot, 2 PP on 5th one.

Nothing higher than Lesser I drops in Endless or anywhere. Higher levels need to be synthesized through Dudu.

Lesser V affixes take many, many tries and many cubes. It takes a very determined player to make them.

which free fields are the best for farming yerkes CO materials?

[Loveless62]

which free fields are the best for farming yerkes CO materials?
The Yerkes materials each come from a separate planet. I don't know that any zone on any planet has a better drop rate for any of these materials than the other zones do. For the most part, just pick a zone for the planet that gives you the material you need.

Naberius Shrooms - Naberius - Ruins and Tundra are fine. Forest sucks to gather from since there are few fishing spots, and you want fishing spots to start a gathering fever before you gather from a green node.
Lillipa Vests - Lillipa - Desert, Tunnels, and Quarry are fine.
Amduscia Dragon Scales - Volcanic Caves, Skyscape, and Sanctum are fine.
Vopar Shells - Vopar (Wopal) - Coast, Seabed, and Facility are fine.
Empty Bottles - Earth - Tokyo and Las Vegas are fine.
Harkotan Fragments - Harkotan - Shironia and Kuron are fine.

Are PP cost reductions additive or multiplicative?

What's the best out of the 3 potentials for Aus NT? Looking into making it rifle or bow
Edit: OK nvm yo Sega wtf why can't i change Ares NT takt to something more useful _(:3 / L)_

[Dark Mits]

Are PP cost reductions additive or multiplicative?Multiplicative. So if you have 10% reduction and 20% reduction, the total reduction is 1- [(1-0,1)x(1-0,2)] = 1-( 0,9x0,8 ) = 1-0,72 = 0,28 ie 28%

Is there a minimum recast time to techniques? Because I'm trying to cheese the lowest possible charge time, but charging it the second time seems to be taking a lot longer than the first time.

I'm trying Rafoie Blazing 3 with R/Flame T S Charge, L/JB Tech Arts SC and Tech Short Charge, which in theory should give a 0.05625 sec charge time (or a 0.275 sec Ilfoie), but grinding rings is gonna take a while.

When I used Tech Short Charge and the customization for minus charge time on Ragrants/Gimegid, they were almost instant for me. I can almost just tap the button but I do have to hold it for the smallest fraction of a second. I imagine this is how it would go for you.

I don't experience any issues on casts after the first.

Nah, I was just measuring it with my mouse macro. Since I haven't maxed out R/Flame T S Charge, Rafoie takes 161 ms to charge, but won't charge if the second charge time is below ~300 ms if I do them back to back.

Oh, and apparently, Gizan is the fastest cast of all, with just 0.05 s minimum.

This sounds like overhead on recovery frames after casting or because of the Phantom attack that occurs after you use a spell, but I couldn't say and don't know how close "back to back" is.

If you're trying to measure that tightly regardless there's probably going to be a slight rounding due to the game only being able to accept input once per frame, and at 60 FPS at least, frames happen every 16.6ms.

[Shoterxx]

This sounds like overhead on recovery frames after casting or because of the Phantom attack that occurs after you use a spell, but I couldn't say and don't know how close "back to back" is.

Key down, 161 ticks, key up, ~200 ticks (animation), key down, ~300 ticks, key up.

I can get more precise numbers after I fetch myself something to eat.

Game running on 200 FPS.


EDIT: 185, 498, 185 works, so does 185, 173, 585, but 185, 173, 185 doesn't...

Each tick should be 1ms, if my mouse is to be believed.

If it's not in the current Story Quest scenes, you should be able to still see it in the Event Chronicle in your MyRoom; I believe most Patty and Tea scenes are under the substory section.

What was the PP consumption threshold that would make photon reduction S2 better than flowing grace S2?

[modoru]

I've been wondering for a while, how do people do weapon switching without going into the palette? For non-heroes, I mean.

[Ceresa]

What was the PP consumption threshold that would make photon reduction S2 better than flowing grace S2?

10pp / 4 seconds means a 10% S2 PP reduction breaks even at 25pp/second or 1500pp/minute. Good luck spending pp that fast while also generating enough pp to sustain that heavy spending for any decent length of time though. Flowing also has the benefit of always being active, even if you're charging things like hero's sword action or holding a PA.

[milranduil]

I've been wondering for a while, how do people do weapon switching without going into the palette? For non-heroes, I mean.

1. Non-elemental tech damage attacks, I don't think anything uses this though except some old low rarity non-element wand gear. Maybe some random potentials.
2. Probably
3. The right side is a multiplier to the enemy defense stat at that level. Table here: https://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E3%82%A8%E3%83%8D%E3%83%9F%E3%83%BC%E3% 82%B9%E3%83%86%E3%83%BC%E3%82%BF%E3%82%B9#q5df628c

Basically you first have to switch the chat history to tab "5. Group Chat". Then at the bottom select from the ellipsis ("...") the specific Group Chat you want to see. Then scroll up/down to load it entirely, and check what you have missed since last time you accessed it.

When in tab "0. All", you only see messages sent to your currently active Group Chat and only while you're online. It won't load any history.

[Dark Mits]

How does that work exactly? 80% + 100% = 360% ? Where does that come from?80% increase means that for every point of PP that you'd recover without these, you now recover 1,8.

But on the other hand, i guess that is why it's called "expert" still, sega is going to get some backlash, More then usual anyway.

I just got into PSO2 recently and I’m having trouble buying AC. I live in the US and there’s not really an easy way for me to get some. I tried the seagm website to do the web money. But they wouldn’t accept my PayPal payment and it automatically locked me out of trying to pay through PayPal and they can’t do anything about it even though it’s from their side. So I decided I was going to try the PSO2es method but I have an iPhone. So I downloaded the Nox APP player emulator on my PC I downloaded PSO2es through the tweeker and it ran fine was even able to link my PSO2 account. I then had to make a google play account. But when trying to pay through the app it says “Error the transaction cannot be completed.” Which is weird because I added 2 credit cards, VISA and MasterCard, with accurate billing info and then I tried PayPal and that didn’t work either. I’m not sure what I need to do as everything I’ve seen online doesn’t say anything about this stuff and I need help in order to buy some AC.

I think it gives that error occasionally with brand new Google accounts to prevent fraud and such, especially if you were trying to charge a large amount. You may just need to wait a week or so and try again.

[Anduril]

If you have the code, you don't actually need to create a separate WebMoney account, you can directly enter the code into the AC charge website; the only problem with WebMoney is the price difference, though that isn't as bad as it used to be (2000AC is ~18USD before applicable sales tax if purchased directly through PSO2es, while a 2000 point WebMoney digital code is 25USD from play-asia).

Because Mirage can't use S1 and S2, it just comes down to the potential of Mirage vs Spirited Response x2. Based on what I've researched and asked, Spirited Responses should be better (purely for PP recovery). So yes, a gunslash like that would be ideal.

This is what I use.

Which of the three Austere-NT potentials is the most useful?

speaking from experience, i only ever used austere-nt on mobbing rod for phantom. based on this, imo Phantasmal Darkness + Ilios Nifta (Increase Power based on the Photon Blast Gauge (5%/6%/7%). Bestow an additional effect based on the Photon Blast type when the Photon Blast is used. + Reduce PP consumption by 20%.) is the best use case.

i picked it from PP reduction aspect (i used TAJA+20 ring too), the other shield potential are just too hard to upkeep for me because it'll gone after 1 hit. on VH-SH field it's not a problem, but things are getting messy while i'm farming on ultra hard field.

[milranduil]

yea Ares pot is good for long run (mainly with multiple mag to cumul the effects, but it's still fine with just one), but on raid boss where you can't max your PB quickly, my preference is for Nemesis pot.

Can't see the attachment, but the reason is that Units have inherent stats separate from their affixes. Those stats are the reason why certain units are considered superior to others.

Would R/Heal Share find use in UH, or is it useless due to abundance of general healing?I wouldn't bother with trying to find a support based R ring for Te in UH. Crit Field is borderline useless since anyone running a crit build is easily going to have 100% crit if they didn't already simply due to the crit PSE.

Heal Share would be neutered by the healing reduction, it's already only 20% of the healing you receive so it would end up being like 10% in an area the size of default resta. Even if you use a trimate with over 3k hp that's still like a 300 heal.

I would personally just focus on improving your own damage, or alternatively pp management, so you can just rezandia everything to keep it in place for people to kill.

what is s1 s2 s3 in wepon affix? how d you get it? is it affix item like power boost/stam boost ?
S-Class Abilities (or SSAs) are special affixes that only certain weapons can use, and it depends on what slots they have (ie. you can only add an S1 ability to a weapon that has an S1 slot, and you can only have one of each slot type on a weapon, ie. only one S1, only one S2, etc.); you can see what SSA slots a weapon has available on the second tab of their item box.
They come from three sources: affixed to a dropped weapon, via SAF, and via capsule (like power boost, etc.).
You add them just like regular affixes, but they have a 100% transfer rate even when upslotting. There is also the option to transfer SSAs from one weapon to another without affixing, allowing you to keep both weapons; this is useful for transferring SSAs that are SAFs since you don't have to lose the weapon that creates that SAF.

For verification purposes, can anyone who's obtained a Sid Strid confirm where they got it from?
I have a suspicion that it drops mainly from the underground tunnels because - based on anecdotal evidence - it seems to surge in supply whenever that zone's available.

I know someone in the other thread posted a quarry drop iirc, but i'm still curious

Thanks in advance, fam

S-Class Abilities (or SSAs) are special affixes that only certain weapons can use, and it depends on what slots they have (ie. you can only add an S1 ability to a weapon that has an S1 slot, and you can only have one of each slot type on a weapon, ie. only one S1, only one S2, etc.); you can see what SSA slots a weapon has available on the second tab of their item box.

Hi,

I've been wondering for a long time now how much of an impact the Power +% from PA crafting has on final damage. I want to get better crafts for the crafted PAs I use most, but as that can be taxing, I would like to know how big of a difference more power in the craft makes to figure how high I should prioritize this

I want to get better crafts for the crafted PAs I use most, but as that can be taxing, I would like to know how big of a difference more power in the craft makes to figure how high I should prioritize this

PA power notation is a end formula percentage multiplier. For example: a PA with power of 1235 is the same as 1235% (also read as 12.35x). If the max craft is +235, it would become 1470 or 1470% (14.7x).

Say your normal “100%” hit does 1000. Using that PA will turn it to 12,350 (and 14,700 at max craft).

Of course there is more to it due to every other multiplier, but that is the controlled environment version of it. (Also, there’s extremely little amounts of things that’ll give you the “normal 100%”)

[Tyreek]

Can the new affixes Exceed Energy and Divine Will be transferred? Also what is needed to transfer the new EX souls?

[ArcaneTechs]

Can the new affixes Exceed Energy and Divine Will be transferred? Also what is needed to transfer the new EX souls?

No they are non transferable until sega decides to do something akin to mark again. Use 3x of the same souls, not sure receptor works with it (i havent messed with them so i assume so)

[Nyansan]

Can the new affixes Exceed Energy and Divine Will be transferred? Also what is needed to transfer the new EX souls?

EX soul + Monster soul needed to create NTheSoul things (i.e EX Magi + Ringa = Magi at 90% pass)

So are those affixes really low on 15 star weapons? how much do they diminish as they don't say the exact boost amount.

Lightning Guard S affix is also not translated by i assume from the freeze guard it does the exact same thing except with lightning element.

In general: 2x, raid bosses after EP3 1.2x or none
Doesn't apply if the head is already a general weakspot. Also doesn't count as a weakspot for endless purposes.

I have been getting multiple 630s in this game lately. I can't play for more than 30 minutes without being 630'd. My internet is fine as I can literally do anything else but play this damn game. Any ideas on what else causes a 630 aside net issues?

Been going on for the past few weeks, maybe even a month. I reinstalled the game entirely twice, deleted and reinstalled game guard, file checks, everything. I can play literally anything else fine except this game. I wasn't even in the game for 10 minutes today before being 630'd so I can't even do the stupid EQ.

[TakemiShinnosuke]

doing the mom and trigger I realized that I could use more PP. Sitting at 153 at the moment. How else can I make it get to 200??

[Arada]

doing the mom and trigger I realized that I could use more PP. Sitting at 153 at the moment. How else can I make it get to 200??

It depends on the units you choose. On average, you'll want 12-15PP affix per unit and on your weapon to reach that amount of PP.
But for that, your units require to have at least a latent +10PP bonus already (it's not very rare).
Finding the right affixes is then a matter of budget, your patience with Dudu and the affix simulator.

[Ransu]

doing the mom and trigger I realized that I could use more PP. Sitting at 153 at the moment. How else can I make it get to 200??

PP Drink is a cheap way for +20 PP. Otherwise you'd want to affix more PP on your weapons and units while balancing out damage still.

If on WiFi, check if you can connect temporarily through cable to confirm it is not an issue with that.
2a) Try to lower some graphic details, especially how many other models are loaded in your surrounding area down to 5. Maybe the game crashes while timing out trying to load many files at the same time.
2b) Slightly related and especially if the game is installed on non-SSD drive; try to defragment the partition you have the game installed in. This shouldn't be a problem because I have played from old IDE drive without issues.
2c) Also slightly related to the above, try to disable your antivirus realtime protection while playing. Enable Game Mode if your antivirus supports it. Check to see that Windows doesn't decide to do its stuff while playing.

If so, if you no longer qualify for Expert (like myself), you'll need to uncheck it or you won't be able to create a new quest with Expert only, you'll get the message saying that some players don't meet the Expert requirement.

How do you beat Phaleg with DB?

I mean, I can stomp the first two stages pretty quickly with DB now, but Phaleg being a small target makes them problematic against her. Destruction Wing frequently misses (over her head, leaving you in no-man's land) unless I fight her at ground level, and then the damage floor becomes an issue. Dispersion Shrike locks you into a long animation that just gets you demolished. Kestrel-0 burns all your gear, and it's hard to replenish when photon blades frequently miss (and if you use PB Homing, the gear return is delayed). Starling is impossible to combo with on a small target, and Immortal Dove puts you back on the damage floor again.

I'm really not sure how to approach her with this weapon. Having a Serpen Blazes, I am almost tempted to try normals to build gear, PB Homing, and Kestrel0, but I'm sure someone has found s method that works.

I mean, I'm sure I csn beat her being cautious, but being cautious isn't going to be fast enough for S-Rank.

Pretty much the case for me, too, but her being short is part of the problem. I barely touch the floor at all in the first two stages, I spend most of the time around Deus and Wolgahda head height. Can't do that with Phaleg.

Greetings everyone
I come with a very common doubt Ark Cash

I have been trying to buy it for some days now, there are many replies and guides but most of them are outdated
I tried the PSO2es with GooglePay and the paypal combo but the card (visa-debit) is not accepted
I tried it directly with the same card in the official SEGA page the bank asked me for permission and gave it, then the page wont load and the transaction doesn't proceed, read something about the name checking in japan going backwards and wont check but who knows...

Does anyone know if the prepaid bitcash cards work? if so, how do you use them?
Or how do you buy your AC?

[mother clusterfck]

Easiest way is pso2es with paypal, it's also very cheap unlike expensive af webmoney and similar.
All you need is to use an address in japan for the google account you use to play pso2es and it will convert all the values automatically.

That aside, what is the English name for S3:時流の勇 and where can you get it?
It's the one that casts Shifta at regular intervals, presumably at the users current level of the tech?

I have es on my phone and I buy AC with my card like normal, no JP information needed and yes its cheaper to buy through es than a mark-up site that sells webmoney cards

its in UH fields I believe and I would assume so, naturally you would just grab Shifta Lv17 from the cube shop anyways

Hello everyone.
I'v been experiencing many trouble all afternoon (Europe) and am starting to worry, because I have a friend who is playing just fine.

Could someone please let me know if he's having issues as well, wich would confirm to me that I just need to be patient, and that there's probably nothing wrong with my client/connection.

------------------------------------------------

Tweaker has no error and can see the servers online.
Servers sometimes showing Green, sometime Grayed (Unknown) with still the possiblity to try to log in wich sometimes get me to Character Select (I can see my Character Model).
Many 249 Errors.
Many Time out Errors.
Several 630 Errors/Disconnections.

But still the ability to play a little in early afternoon (before it started to act up), and had the ability to get through the loading screens and character selection at least once or twice in the several hours after that. In game was extreme lag, but I was still able to use my Support Partner, sell a few items to NPC, before getting 630 again.

We are 2 hours past the big Emergency Quest if i'm not mistaken, so i'm starting to worry again. It would be great if someone experiencing the same issues could give me his thoughts. The 249 Error is scaring me a little. If I didn't manage to log in at least once (several hours after my first disconnection this early afternoon, wich occured with active play in exploration, not just lobby or room), I would be so sure i'm banned for playing outside of Japan.

Sorry if I missjudge to post here. Since it might be related to a high activity with the new EQ and all, I wasn't sure I should make a whole thread in Technical Issues. Also i'll edit this post later if things get better.

Thanks !

Of course I would love if I could upslot with this setup from the get go but thats highly unlikely. Also no HP&PP3 because not enough money.

Or should I simply start farming another Lumiere and get myself a new Atlas with 8 Slots from the get go? I would hate to do that but would in a pinch.

Well for one you would need your other fodders at 8 slot too which with or without 10% boost week is a huge pain in the pass. However you will not be able to get a 100% upslot to 8s, it won't happen and will be solely on RNG so if all your fodder (and your base weapon) happen to be 8's already, 100% across the board is of course doable. Naturally you'll want to use weapons with SAFs on them to make the process a bit less painful.

If you're really intending to do that exact affix above (you can do something better tho) here are some fodder if you have any spares:

Slave NT series: Spirita 6 -> 7+ PP
Tokyo/Yamato Collection: Stamina 5 -> 70+ HP (Stam 6 is only on the new 15* DS Utimate Chain)
Dim series: Atk 6 -> +45 atk
Recommend just adding Apprentice soul really or if you got Ray fodder than Astral Soul which offers more benefits

upslot with fodder. don't affix and upslot in 1 step. during a boost week upslotting from 7s to 8s with 4 ssa's isn't TOO bad. (not fun mind you, but doable). just use 100% success stuff like pow 1/tech 1/empe embrace/etc. and 40% affix helpers.that way you'll just have to worry about failures on 4 of the 8 slots, and if that happens, you just try it again and lost nothing of value.

once you're at 8s, then you just do your final affixing without having to upslot. also, that affixing is REALLY bad. like, total trainwreck.do you have any s1 augmented intent from the last lq left over? if not, you're going to want to use either double-edge or skilled strike (and on a te, you can get decent crit rates with shifta critical, fury critical [or critical stream if you're te/ph], and the crit ring)

additionally, you're affixing literally 0 attack outside of ares the soul. do ares the soul / pow 4 / persona (or elder) rev / elegant pow for your 4 non-ssa slots. your mp will thank you for not being useless.

(not fun mind you, but doable). just use 100% success stuff like pow 1/tech 1/empe embrace/etc. and 40% affix helpers.that way you'll just have to worry about failures on 4 of the 8 slots, and if that happens, you just try it again and lost nothing of value.

once you're at 8s, then you just do your final affixing without having to upslot. also, that affixing is REALLY bad. like, total trainwreck.do you have any s1 augmented intent from the last lq left over? if not, you're going to want to use either double-edge or skilled strike (and on a te, you can get decent crit rates with shifta critical, fury critical [or critical stream if you're te/ph], and the crit ring)

additionally, you're affixing literally 0 attack outside of ares the soul. do ares the soul / pow 4 / persona (or elder) rev / elegant pow for your 4 non-ssa slots. your mp will thank you for not being useless.

1. I also have the same problem and am trying to fix it too lol.. HELP US!!!! (question number 2 below the picture)

2. If the boss mobs are not chasing me and its chasing ( aggro issue ) someone else that means I HAVE TO PLAY CHASE instead.
My problem : I will might be taking more damage as I might smack into the incoming attacks while chasing it.
Anyways around this ??

like you said, it's the same thing as the other guy. when you upslot, there is an upslot penalty that applies to everything but ssa's (which is why ssa's are some awesome when you're upslotting weapons). that penalty is a constant, so if the penalty going from 4s -> 5s is 40%, and the affixes you select normally all have 70% success rates, they'd drop to 30%. (and if they normally have 100% success, they'd drop to 60%).

because of this, you want to ALWAYS be upslotting with stuff that has a 100% success rate such as the unselected react 1 that you have in your image. instead of using what you're using right now, find some generic 6s+ weapons and use 2 of those as fodder (always a minimum of 2, and usually exactly 2 when upslotting because it's the price difference between paying 50k or 350k meseta). choose your 4 ssa's and then something like arm1 pow 1 react 1. (any 3 100% success affixes are fine. other examples are blow resist, empe embrace, any of the various rappy fevers, etc.). do NOT use your elegant pow at this step. you never want to be using an add item at the same time you're upslotting unless it's adding an ssa. you'll lose your apprentice soul and persona rev along the way, but this isn't a big deal because

1. apprentice soul isn't good, you should be using ares the soul instead (made from using historia soul and a compound soul)
2. persona rev is cheap. you can pick one up at 8s for around 100k.

once you have your weapon up to the desired number of slots, THEN you use your add item. for the weapon you're currently doing, what i'd recommend is upslotting with junk to 8 slots then making

* 4 ssa's
* ares the soul
* pow 4
* persona reverie
* elegant pow

for the ssa's, i'd consider swapping out the s1 sturdy intent for something a little more unconditional (have any augmented intents from the last lq? that's an unconditional 4% at 8s). if you don't have augmented intend, skilled strike 1 will give you a 3% boost that should be effectively unconditional if that sword is for an hr, which i'm assuming it is.

for the s2, you shouldn't need wise skill if you're playing hr. you should naturally be able to crit everything without that, meaning you can use a skilled strike or skilled strike 2 here for an extra 3 or 4% damage.

your s3 is already skilled strike, this is perfect

(i'm actually TERRIBLE at reading kanji, is that s4 vampiric strike? if so, that's what you want)

if you're not wearing a crit ring for striking, you absolutely want that. this is a huge part of why you can skip things like wise skill and still hit crits on every attack.

all you can really do is

1. hit harder so you have aggro

2. get to the monster quicker (use safoie, il zonde, vapor bullet, etc.)

quick update from yesterday, verizon issues appear to be fixed now. game is back to normal today.

PAs from subpalette does not affect the normal attack sequence

Normally, when PA is used from weapon palette:
n1 > PA > n3

But from subpalette it is like this
n1 > PA > n2

Its like it is being treated like a tech. Is this a bug? I hope it is.

PAs in subpalette are working exactly like techs in subpalette. Techs affect normal attack sequences if put on main palette and they don't if put on subpalette. So this works as intended.

Flowing courage. Armada.
Thanks.
Wasn't sure if that is correct cause bumped doesn't always use the same translation as arks layer and I couldn't find anything in the shop.

Sigh. I was hoping this wasn't the case since my brain has been trained to treat PAs as part of the normal attack combo since the game release. Oh well, I guess I just have to somehow get used to it. Thanks.

Easiest way is pso2es with paypal, it's also very cheap unlike expensive af webmoney and similar.
All you need is to use an address in japan for the google account you use to play pso2es and it will convert all the values automatically
Thanks, found out it was my bank that was blocking my transactions, made a call and problem solved

Another 3 questions about Flowing Courage / Armor:
According to google shifta / deband are recast every 14 seconds but last 15 seconds and the power of each is the user's own tech lvl? Do crafts apply?
And that effectively means infinite Shifta / Deband as long as the weapon is equipped?
And do potentials affect this, e.g. If I got Atlas Ex JBs equipped with these, will I get an autocast for Shifta / Deband every 14 seconds which lasts 120 seconds?

as if they are the same as in horuma, they will cast on urself only, so crafts don't matter. buffs will be maintained infinitely on all classes. 120s extension will likely work but it doesn't matter anyway. they overlap but barely then no point for that. should use other s4 if you are using altra

So are those winding down seconds of killing Deus and waiting for the quest complete to confirm tacking onto your score when doing Destroyers of Light?

Going by the same principle as solo PD, the 'official' time of completion is when the boss is dead and not when the 'Quest Complete' screen pops up (imagine the number of people who get cucked by that long death animation if it was up to quest complete)

PSO2 tweaker can't check for plugins and translations since I updated Win10 today. Anyone knows how to fix this?

I see.

But, it's still important because of weapon swap.
If I got them on Atlas EX jbs and the 2 minute sd potential affects it means I only have to swap from dbs to jbs every two minute to keep it up, otherwise it wouldn't be possible to keep sd up without casting manually.

i think u get it wrong somewhere. tick time is still 15s over every 14s, or 1s stacked (tested myself months ago). even with Adrenaline, it's 45s/14s or you have to be on jb 35s to get 120s stacked. that is pretty significant time when ur sitting on an unfavor wp. i would rather fodding them directly into db and manual boosting on jb (ez anyway). no point putting them on to swap. they have limited usage already and you are putting them further from that point :-?

[Masu]

Do SP badges drop from XH E.Forest and if yes, is drop rate less terrible than it is for UH? Thanks

Edit: While I'm at it, are there specifics boss/conditions to get them (speaking about UH)?

I just returned to PSO2 after a short time of not playing it, and decided to make a new character to start fresh. Everything seems to be unlocked from my previous character but if I try to do story or enter story bridge it does not let me. I can't use the keys we've been getting either. How do I do this on a new character?
