Few Make over pass questions

I plan on buying a makeover pass because Aquanos looks ugh
the pass says it last for a complete hour, right? so does that only apply when i'm actually IN the make over shop, or once I use the pass time applies in and outside of the make over shop?

With that being said, can I use the save data function as an advantage? Ok, say I save data with red hair and then save data again with green hair, when I load that data, will it be the same colored hair as I originally saved it as? I ask this so I don't have to use another makeover pass again just for hair color. So pretty much have a bunch of saved data with just different hair colors.

The 1 hour delay is just for premium users and time starts running when you confirm your modifications. During that time frame, you can step outside, check if you like it or modify again.

And no, that doesn't work, you can't save data and use them for free, if the loaded data modify body parts or things like hair color, then you'll have to pay again.

I'd like to know... Is dark any useful for anything that isn't tech related or the dragons weak to light? I'm asking since I'll attrib grind the loser 11* stone rifle, and since it has dark attribute, it'd be good to know if it was okay maintaining, or I should just get another element on it.

Okay, asking it in the OTP thread didn't work, so let's try it here: I have serious trouble setting up OTP. Whenever I correctly enter the coupon code, I get an "Unable to verify Coupon code. [143]" error. Searching the net did not help; Japanese players used to have this problem with i-SecureOTP, but, apparently, it was supposed to already be resolved or something. Searching english sites gave zero results, as I should have probably expected. So, does anyone know what can be done about this?

I know about its base stat, at first i create female cast to spec as Gu/Hu but now I'm thinking of playing Fo/Te also.

Should i create new female-newman or just play it as female-cast? it's about 80 tech different in base stat, is that affect much?

Making a new character for Force is a really good idea, since you get a mag for free to put magic on

Female Newman Force has 528 base T-Attack, at Lv70.
Female CAST Force has 460 base T-Attack, at Lv70.
That's about a 13% difference. A farcry from PSU's ~50%~ racial differences (IIRC, offensive Tech's were NEVER ok on any CAST... unless You were a Struggling CAST ForteTecher named Deja).

For added emphasis on Race being pretty much just a cosmetic choice in this game:
Male Deuman Hunter, at Lv70 has 513 base S-Attack.
Male Newman Hunter, at Lv70 has 480 base S-Attack.
That's a 6.5% difference. Even less noticeable than your T-Attack question.

tl;dr
Unless you trying to squeeze every last drop of damage (which would imply you also have the meseta & luck to get the best affixes on all your gear), go ahead & have your Fembot whoosh-whoosh things. As long as you know what attacks to use when & where, 13% isn't much to cry about. Hell, once you put on a good 10* Tech weapon (900 ~ 1100 T-Attack), that 13% stat difference becomes about a 6% difference.

I have a ダルスバーレイ +10 (loser bow) with Mizer Soul and Shoot III. I spent around 500k on the affixes and the grinding (mostly the grinding). Is bullet bow a viable weapon to use? This weapon has 877 T-ATK, so would Br/Fo be a good class combo with it?

CAST Fo/Te in PSO2 loses 5% of its damage. Newman Wartecher in PSU lost about 50% with s-rank options.

Force Talent grants a 50% to the spells that matches the attribute of the weapon. So a 50 Dark would gain a 25% boost in damage.

It still boosts damage. 50 of an element boost overall damage. Dark is great against rappies, sky dragons, and sanctum...and sometimes Chrome.

It's RNG to craft all class daggers, having cameos twin daggers can evade that frame dropping of niskiki. Other option is to get

Also, Bio weps drop FPS. About as hard as Nishiki does.

I don't know about Sacrifice Darker, though. Never tested, but I find it questionable considering you suggested Bio Daggers. >_>

Crafted ones are the way to go. I use twin rippers, dunno if they're the best but a bunch of people seem to use them. I see twin edge / twin blades in TA videos more often though.

They should be very easy to make, and very cheap to make.

This is confirmation bias, but it seems to be easier to get all-class on them at ExLv.3-4 (on 3* rare or lower). I generally get it to whatever extend level brings it to a 15-25 minute cooldown timer cause it syncs well with using lilipoop.

In any case, it should be cheap, and take at most like 20 tries to get all-class.

Oh, don't worry. It took me well over 600 rerolls to allclass another dagger a few weeks ago.

Either way, the mb one is the way to go. There aren't many obtainable all class twin daggers in general. The only other one I can think off is the lovely rappy ones but I work on hearsay for what drops fps.

Which is a shame. Marie Nails is quite good. However I'm saving for a ready-to-go Sacrifice Darker. Hope that one isn't that heavy on FPS, since it's good looking, and there's not even a single cammo for TD that I like.

Jun 9, 2014, 09:54 AM
From what I've heard, it also cause FPS drops. And I'm not that fond of it as well. It'd be nice if there were (but as we know, never will) a feature where you spend a weapon to turn it into a cammo. I'd surely make a cammo out of G Nero Dagger or Iblis Blood.

Although, if there were such feature, it'd require several AC items to create one cammo, though. If Sega feels greedy enough, they'll be not tradeable, and will be rarity 9* up to get on scratch.

So I'm looking for suggestions. I want to dedicate a rod to casting my ice techs. I don't have talis bonus and I don't have an ice tree, so it's just to get a little extra boost when I do use ice. I'd deal with extending an adaman only if it were actually going to make a difference which I'm skeptical of. I was leaning toward either a stark katz for general purpose or that vid gilos rod for oceanid hunter. Ideas? Btw I'm not getting talis bonus nor currently an ice tree so forget about talises and photon flare boosts.

Hello!

I am a new member and specifically created this account for this question since I have not found an answer in the site or through the use of google.

Before I ask my question I would like to extend my thanks to the Arks-Layer team, thank you very much for your work and diligence in upkeeping and creating a tool for the rest of us to use!

Now that the acknowledgements are out of the way:

I am about to use the excubes to trade for the units with lucky rise, I plan to extend them to make them viable in higher difficulties; however, I am aware that crafting eliminates the hidden bonuses on units. I want to know if extending those specific units at the cube shop will eliminate any bonuses that will hinder lucky rise or anything related to the increase in luck. Since I do not know what hidden bonuses these specific units provide as they are the only units in the game with lucky rise and at a high ex cube cost.

If nothing detrimental occurs then I will proceed with the extend process.

Thank you for your time.

Tivor
Jun 9, 2014, 11:32 PM
First, welcome.

Now to the question: No, extending them won't void boosts given by affixes (such as Lucky Rise, Shoot III, Gwana Soul and so on). Note that Lucky Rise does not increase rare equipment drop rate, only things like stones and the like.

Units do, however, have hidden stats, like some do give some HP, of PP, or elemental resistance, or striking/ranged/tech defense. When you craft an unit, you void it of these hidden stats to be replaced with standardized stats, based on the type of defense you select as requirement for the unit, something like:

Selecting S-def gives 30HP and 1PP
Selecting R-def gives 20HP and 2PP
Selecting T-def gives 10HP and 3PP (corrected)

I'm not exactly sure about these numbers, but they scale like that. You can look up the hidden stats for each unit at pso2.swiki.jp (using google translator) and also pso2.cirnopedia.info.

My questions are is there a easier way to farm for this set? My second question being if there's not whats the best path to go to get some decent end game armor for a non premium user?

Sorry I'm still a bit new to the crafting system. So then what I would want to do is craft the 9 star set that is the lower version of Folly then? Then extend it? I've done some reading on it but I'm not sure I understand it completely. Can you extend a unit multiple times or only once? So crafting it gives me the set bonus the extending it I lose all hidden passives but gain the new ones?

Which set should I craft for Fo/Te if I was going to do this? Sorry for all the questions. Would I craft if as a Striking Set or Tech Resist. I'm guessing going full striking would be the smartest?

Ok so reading through that you don't actually craft the unit then it self? You would get the units you want to use say in this case the 9 star Fegali Set and then you'd be able to extend them up to 7 times. Extending them more simply raises the defensive values on them. The "hidden" bonuses stay the same through the extensions (as I'm guessing they don't stack each level since that would be insane)

With that said I should be going for the Fegali Set until I can find Folly? Should I extend this as striking or tech? I noticed striking only gets 1 PP but the HP and I'm not sure which is better to go for in this situation.

I should also try to find pieces that have at least 4 bonuses on them so I can affix some decent stuff on to it as well?

Ok so reading through that you don't actually craft the unit then it self? You would get the units you want to use say in this case the 9 star Fegali Set and then you'd be able to extend them up to 7 times. Extending them more simply raises the defensive values on them. The "hidden" bonuses stay the same through the extensions (as I'm guessing they don't stack each level since that would be insane)

With that said I should be going for the Fegali Set until I can find Folly? Should I extend this as striking or tech? I noticed striking only gets 1 PP but the HP and I'm not sure which is better to go for in this situation.

I should also try to find pieces that have at least 4 bonuses on them so I can affix some decent stuff on to it as well?

Correct, if not sure if Hunter for HP or Fo for PP, you can always go FO for both.

If you're not 70 already, you should extend for whatever class you are so you can meet the stat requirement for extensions earlier. As a HU, extend striking. As a FO, extend tech. As a BR, extend based on your subclass and race (e.g. as BR/FO female newman, extend tech). In the end, you're choosing between up to +60 HP vs. up to +6 PP -- not a really big difference either way.

Don't worry too much about the absolute quality of your item early on. When you extend units, you retain the abilities and set bonus and pretty much nothing else. Innate parameters are overwritten. You're better off grabbing a set from the marketplace of even the junkiest armor type with a few good affixes. All DEF stats are the same after extension on all units. You can spend 200k on a cheap set of stuff and extend it for 1100+ DEF stats at level 30.

That actually depends on the rate of the netcafe, each store has their own fee system and member.

Think you need to go to a netcafe that has a contract with Sega, and those are usually more expensive then the regular netcafe

Well keep in mind, yen is generally going to have 2 extra digits over dollar amounts, give or take some due to the economy. So for simplicity's sake, 100 yen = a dollar.

Also keep in mind that being at the net cafe grants premium at all times for this game too. So meh, its a bit costly over time, but its a cozy and comfortable place to play for a bit if you're feeling up to it. Much easier in the short term than shelling out the amounts of money you'd need to actually buy the hardware they have there.

I would say so. Its 5 hours of play, but you generally get a really comfortable play area with fancy chairs and computer equipment. And SEGA of course gives extra benefits for playing in some of them since they have deals with some of those places.

There's different set ups in different places of course, but here's some examples.

That is correct. Which is why you see most people stop at 3 when doing multiple affixes. It's safer and affordable. Also, it only boosts if you have a ability level 3 already. Combining "ability name" level 2 and "ability name" level 2 to make "ability name" level 3 is NOT boosted.

While this is normally true, there are some situations where it depends on what's affixed on both armor sets. Your Gloam Set example, I actually tested (and ended up wasting a lot of meseta on) against a crafted set of 3* armor. The Gloam Set (with a Vardha Leg piece) all had Quartz Soul + Power III. My crafted 3* set all have Cougar Soul + Vinculum + Mutation +Ability III (farmed from the Mizer + Cougar EQ).

The Gloam set ended up with more attack power (from a better set bonus, the 3* set bonus was like 30 HP or some nonesense), but was actually taking MORE damage than the 3* "Cougar Craft" set. This was tested against a single Lv63 Oodon & with only its forward kick attack.

tl;dr
Crafted armors are great for unfortunate / poor / non-premium players & to have POSSIBLY very SLIGHTLY better defense than some of the 10* sets. However, I think the 10* & up sets are still better options, just because they end up with more attack bonuses & HP or PP bonuses.

How much is spirita III/power III/Quartz soul unit fodder usually worth?

1,359,000 meseta was the cheapest i could find for a unit with Quartz/ Pwr3/ Sprt3m and that might be undercutting, you should be able to sell that for 1.5 mill easy+^_^+

anyway, quick question, i've been thinking of making a second character for a bit, but while i want the race to be different, i want the face to be perfectly identical to my 1st one, is there a way to import all the slider settings from my Caseal's face to that of a human or dueman?? +^_^+

Not really, it'll be different, but the best bet is to take screenshot of the face sliders and match them ingame or through the character creator

For the "pulse" red circle katana pas like the blue wave slash, does hitting the pulse on red count as a just attack or is it the attack before that determines it?

Thanks.

sayi50
Jun 12, 2014, 06:25 PM
The "pulse" is charging the PA. Let it go when it is red and you'll add extra effects to your PA. For example, Sakura End hits a wider area for more damage, Shunka Shunran adds three more attacks if you hold a key. Just Attack is perfectly timing the attacks one after another according to the circle that comes over you.

I need to get my hands on various things only rare versions of bosses drop. What would be a good or time-efficient way to get those bosses and loot? At first I thought rushing the boss would work, but seems drop rates are based on how much stuff you killed so I'm not sure that works. Is there a way to tell if you get a rare boss before entering the boss fight or a way to improve your chances at a rare boss?

Hard to say, since the Japanese are big on niceties.

Generally, they don't mind Americans but there are exceptions. If you want to speak English without fear, B-20 is your best bet or find some friends/a nice team. However, in the event you do party with Japanese, just don't act obnoxiously foreign or do anything that would be considered morally wrong and you should be fine.

Hello,

1. Can you search for certain Affixes anyway in player shops or do you have to go page by page?
2. When affixing does the fodder weapons star level matter? Or does it just need the same number of slots?
3. When affixing if I'm doing a rear units does the fodders also need to be rear units.

4. If I have a unit/weapon with 4 slots but no soul and I want to get say Elder/Ragne soul on the unit whats the easier way to do this? After that what other 3 affixes would be best for forces now day?

I did search a lot of stuff on affixes but most of the information is for specific instances and the guides are still not as clear as they could be I feel. Thanks in advance.

There is not. You have to use your subpalette. Through a macro in an external program I'm sure you could set any old key to redirect to a subpalette slot, but I don't know that that's what you want.

What exactly do the weapon actions on the Double Saber and Twin Daggers do?

Dagger action resets your combo/chain, give you a bit of altitude, fills up one bar or dagger gear and acts as a short dodge.

Double Saber action also resets your combo/chain, it uses up all of your double saber gear to create a wind aura that follows you, causing damage over time and refilling your gear with those hits. I'm not sure if it does anything else or if there are dodge/invincibility frames in it.

blace
Jun 14, 2014, 04:25 AM
What exactly do the weapon actions on the Double Saber and Twin Daggers do?

Double saber's weapon action requires the gear for it in the skill tree. You build up the bar and unleash a torrent of wind that will hit everything around you within a short distance.

Twin dagger's action acts as a split second guard, attack and PA canceling.

Sp-24
Jun 14, 2014, 04:33 AM
What exactly do the weapon actions on the Double Saber and Twin Daggers do?
Twin Daggers' action gives you some Just Guard frames. It's not as precise as Sword's Just Guard and doesn't give you invincibility frames after a successful guard, but it protects you from all directions, and you don't need to spend 4 skill points to get it.

Double Saber's action activates its Gear, which conjures some sort of tornado around you that damages enemies and builds up your gear gauge. The action is completely useless if you don't have a Double Saber Gear skill.

I Honestly just need someones opinion.

So I've got tons and tons of units with 0 - 2 abilities on them. I Was thinking about searching them all up for a little cash, but the units are all 10* so it wouldn't matter anyways right? So i'm trying to find use for these units and the only open option I can think of is to recycle them. I'm trying to choose between grinders and Photon Spheres. if I did decide to throw them in the shop they're only worth like 3 - 4k when recycling 5 of them for grinders would be a better profit...I don't know...I just don't see the use for like 67 10* Unit tickets.

Recycle them to Photon Sphere.

Is it a password thing? I'm simply getting this message: システム障害により切断されました。
しばらくお待ちください。 Which translates to "system error, please try later".

It was the issue on Sega's side. Many players were having this problem, including a lot of japanese, and, according to this (http://pso2.jp/players/news/?id=3804), it's been fixed 30 minutes ago, and all users will receive Triboost+50% as a sufficient compensation, including everyone who slept through or otherwise missed it, like me.

Is there a place where I can see Accessories and hear voices before I spent FUN or whatever ahead of time? I've been using Cirnopedia for most older content, but I'd also like to know of the new content. If Cirnopedia is the only place for information like this, I'd be happy to submit information samples i've come a crossed. Maybe like a thread or something so people don't have to waste?

Anyone have this (http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E3%83%8A%E3%83%B4%E3%83%88%E3%83%AB%E3% 82%B9) bow? ナヴトルス

I'd like someone else's first hand input on how bad the clipping is.
