Guys, when i unleash a potential of a rare weapon, and try to upgrade the augments, in case of failure, it won't be lost right? (the potential sticks to the weapon?)

Are accessory, make up, lobby action, etc. tickets shared for every character on the account or only for that specific character?

I saw that I was still able to use my lobby action form my first character onto my second character.... wondering if accessories and stuff are the same.

Also if you delete that character that used the ticket, you wouldn't loose it?

Accessories/make up/hairstyles are only usable by the character that used the ticket. Lobby actions are account wide.

Potentials aren't lost if you try to add affixes to a weapon, nor do they add to the difficulty of affixing it. They basically don't count at all, they're just there.

Most tickets are limited to just one character and that character's support partners. The only tickets that I know apply to all of your characters instead of just one is the lobby actions. So, deleting a character effectively also deletes any tickets that you used on them, except LAs.


So yah, sometimes my game will just randomly crash. I get the generic windows "Program has crashed/stopped responding" message. There's no set pattern, it just happens at random. Any ideas? This has been occuring for a while and it gets real annoying when it happens more than once in one day and especially during EQs. Almost missed Luther today cuze of it.
Crashes are most likely related to your PC. It could be too weak to handle PSO2 (Gameguard, actually), or your OS could be unstable. Lowering game settings, defragmenting the disks (especially the one PSO2 is installed on and the one your system uses for cache), cleaning your registry and startup applications, and reinstalling PSO2 have a chance to fix it, but it's a lot more likely that you'd need to do something more drastic, like reinstall the OS or upgrade your PC.

Nab 2 is pretty straight forward, you can take NPC now too I believe.(You want to take the Left path after the first boss fight.
And it's not that hard to find people doing it, if you just advertise X/4 Ta on B20

You're right, it was right there, in the Tundra area of all places :p

I didn't finish the quest, I got out of it and went back again to kill it again with the other weapon.

It's marginally useful, most of the time people run past traps before you get the chance to shoot the anyway.

It's also gonna be default for rangers after episode 3. If you wanna see what it looks like anyway I have some old screenshots.

What kind of unit set would you guys recommend for a range-oriented Braver?

Don't give me suggestions on 10* units I'd have to buy, I don't have premium & don't have the cash to get it, so that isn't happening.

I pretty evenly use my Rifle & Bow; Braver/Ranger.

Kindly don't remind me that I'd be better off switching what my main and sub are if I want to play ranged, that isn't an option due to how I've raised my mag.

Also, optimal rifle I should get for Ranger subbing? Factors are cost [if 9* or under], Latent [I can and /will/ unlock it], mob-drop [if 10* or higher], and color scheme as a far secondary; I prefer my weapons green, but that simply isn't always possible.

You could pick a set of Tian 9* and craft it up, since individual unit give next to nothing, but the set effect is 90 Ratk + 10pp. Since it's a two part set, pick a random leg to fill in what you need, there is some option with 8* and 9* for hp or pp, like レッグ/デザープレート (Leg / Dezer Plate) with 50hp and solid Sdef + strike resist, レッグ/リュクスネ (Leg / Luxe Nero) with 5pp but weak defense or even レッグ/フェネアジス (Leg / Fen Aegis) for better balance between the two. More can be found if you look on cirnopedia.

10* unit wise, some can be farmed without too much trouble and once EP3 hit, apparently we're getting EP1&2 fully unlocked, so you could farm "mini Vibras" in the last EP2 MB story, which are pretty decent at endgame with decent balance. He is lv60 though and his weapons are locked to lv61+ sadly.

Braver Mag isn't main class only and there was no info to it changing. If no Bow related skill are main-class only in EP3, you could shoot for RABR eventually. Although, after looking at cirno, there isn't really a good RA able bow that is easily accessible outside of Bio Bow for freemium, dumb luck or weapon crafting...

BR-able rifle wise, there is the SHAQ volcano stone shop ディブルアルブス (Divularbus) with fury stance latent, can farm the stone on VH and the base weapon is a 9*. And there is the 11* エヴァレカーサ (Evarecasa) made using Falz Luther's stone and it got ZRA latent.

Craft a Tian set and try to hunt for White Tail or Ing Plate from XQs. Crafted Tian is better than the 10* version IMO since you can get more PP this way. Crafting a Gwanman set would just be... stupid. Some easier to get options for leg units are Luxe Nero or Luxe Pal for +5 pp, the 10* version is very common from the Gel Wulff emergency code.

As for rifles, go with Bio Triner or Evarecasa. Evarecasa is gotten by trading in 100 Loser stones, which are pretty easy to get. Just do the Falz Loser EQ whenever it comes up. Bio Triner is an XQ stone trade in, which takes quite a long time to get but is the better option in the end.

does the 'get an S rank to get better stuff' rule affect just bosses? im trying to farm SH Collect E-trials for the Gloam set on floating isles and the etrial shows up a lot in the third block of the 2nd Arks mission.

are reward chances for etrials totally random?

http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E3%82%B0%E3%83%AD%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0%E3% 82%B7%E3%83%B3%E3%83%9C%E3%83%AB

these are the drop details
 
SHアムドゥスキア 卵回収 赤トラ(制限時間有り) 青トラ(制限時間無し)
  アークスクエスト 指定標本回収:浮遊大陸 難易度SH

the kanji for red and blue is used for etrials, so does that mean i can still get it from normal collect etrials like the one im doing at the end of the arks mission?

Hey there, not really looking for an answer as what I'm gonna ask isn't really a question, more or less looking for insights. I'm currently playinga BR/RA build (centered mostly on RAstyle, rifle being my main weapon) and was wondering something about rifle PAs.

I noticed people mention one point and sneak shooter all the time but never piercing shell, why is that? To me one point, while being fun, is weaker than piercing shell and more of a pain to aim with for WB. Also sneak shooter is just a stronger piercing shell at the expense of mobility.

Kinda looking for thoughts on that one. Now that I think about it this might have been thread-making worthy but whatever lol

Crafting question: So the stats that are on the extended weapon are effected by the grind rate of the weapon before crafting or after it?

Also is crafting worth it early on? Especially since low rarity weapons don't have a minimum damage cap or whatever.... seems like it would be pretty beneficial for a decent amount of time.

No you can only obtain them after you have her partner card. You obtain it if you keep doing her CO's over and over. IIRC, she needs to be green or yellow affinity. Just keep accepting and clearing her CO's over and over and eventually you unlock it. This goes for most NPC that have a partner card to hand out.

Just because a class isn't max deeps doesn't mean you shouldn't play it. If you're worried about how it'll do in serious content then I doubt much will change. If anything it'll get stronger with the buffs to chaining, PAs, and no longer having to rely entirely on S-roll for half it's damage.

Crafting is best early on cause of just that. Extend a 6* weapon and it will be very good for a long time until you get a very good 9* or so.

Another question, how reliable is Holy Ray's stun at potential lvl 1 and 3?
Is it worth getting?

In general, what 10*/11* rifle and launcher are good if I don't have unlimited funds?

That npc's tutorial stuff isn't translated.

And if you mean Koffie, I think some of her dialogues aren't translated, but that's enough of a sign to go see her and see if she has any quests for you. If not, it's just her telling you that something new is available to you (AQs, SHAQs, XQs, etc)

Well i was watching my support partners beat things up last night while MB grinding.

They were clearly doing 3 digit damage to like high 30 enemies even though they're between 60-66
And I was curious as to how. 2 of them were bravers and they were using average stance, so its safe to say they do have multipliers.

(which makes me wonder if they have a skill tree and their SP is used automatically, not not used at all. if its the latter, why not let the player make skill trees for their Support Partners?)

Sorry should have mentioned that. No, I'm using Bluestacks. And I have used it before.

I'm also in a hotel. It COULD be the internet connection. Which is odd because I have a good enough connection to play PSO2 and not get DCd but can't connect to PSO2es to update it. It did the first time but won't now.

I'm also in a hotel. It COULD be the internet connection. Which is odd because I have a good enough connection to play PSO2 and not get DCd but can't connect to PSO2es to update it. It did the first time but won't now.Ok that helps, but I'm not sure I have an answer personally. D: Sorry.

I thiiink it still buys a pass once you go into the creation menu though, so the AC will be spent. I didn't have the courage to back out after all (´・ω・`)

Greetings. ^^ I currently have a Set which gives me 15% Strike Resistance (native bonus from Units + affixes). I now want to change it and take three Units from different Sets which would gives me 30% Strike Resistance (native bonus from Units + affixes). I know my question may sound stupid (more Strike Resistance is always a good thing) but since it will cost me 3/4 Millions, do you think +15% Strike Resistance is worth the price ? Do you really feel the difference when you're attacked ? Thanks.

You're going to be met with "Why defense when you can just dodge?????????" responses.

I think the resistances are applied to damage after the normal defense calculations.

Is it useful? Yeah. Will you feel the difference? Maaybe? 600 becomes 510. 90HP saved. That will add up over 4-5 strikes, but you generally die in 2-3. So really...it can kinda depend on your character and how much HP you have.

Is it worth 3-4 million?


Ahhhh probably not. More than likely not. You have to get a lot out of it to make it worth it.

From previous patterns, they didn't update Falz Stone shop with katana or bow when braver came out and never did. Hell, their AQ weapons had to wait until the release of the coast-quarry-seabed set. I guess the fact we're getting their XQ Bio weapons two weeks later is supposed to be nice of them.

Ah alrighty. I was going to go make new units when the item lab boost happens, but I wasn't sure if I should use my spirita boosters on my force. Looks like tech boosters will be more useful, seeing as I'll already have 140+ pp with them.

It's useful to have around 150 pp if you use Ilbarta with Elysion. 7 Ilbartas costs 175 pp, but with charge revival, you gain a couple back in between uncharged Ilbartas so you'll have enough for the 7th by the time you get there.

It's always nice to have more pp as force, but tech boost is definitely the better option over spirita boost if you've got folly + heiremjees and spirita III on everything.

As a general rule

If it's weak to 2 elements, both are 1.2
If it's weak to 1 element, it's 1.3

There are exceptions, most notably vol, quartz, etc. Their resists are bizarre.

Remember that this only applies to the elemental portion, not the weapon's raw or the player's base stats/affixes/setbonuses/mag/etc.

The Mena Alice could be good if you're subbing Gunner, not to say it's bad if you're not. It's just that the latent only works if you have Gunner as a main or sub and have Perfect Keeper. Outside of that, I would suggest the Cheripheed for reduced PP cost, Infinite Corundum for faster PP recovery or the Arao/Evarecasa for the Zero Effort latent.

Don't forget Hurio Sniff whose potential boosts Weak Point damage and is of equal strength to Mena Alice's at level 3.

Cheers for answers.

I believe they can both activate at the same time, but Automate Half-Line usually seems to occur first, since it doesn't have to wait for the mag to bob up and down before healing you.

It starts with lowest and goes to highest, so your Monomates will be used up first, followed by your Dimates, and finally your Trimates. It's worth considering not bringing any Monomates with you if you have Automate Half-Line since they won't help you very much when it activates.

Well yeah, of course it's gonna be worth more because it's Gloam. How much more? I'd say at least the base cost of that unit + the cost of 5s quartz, maybe add 200-500k due to affix costs. Maybe a sucker will buy for 1m more, who knows. If you used 2 quartz fodders to make that, you might take a bit of a loss, since at 5s it's probably cheaper to use soul receptor than it is to actually make fodders.

I have no idea on your second question, but most of the e-code units are incredibly rare, except for folly. If you're hunting for any of the the top tier 10*s, you can probably find them in XQ with the exception of Gwanman, which I don't believe drops in XQ. Not sure if there's any others that don't drop in XQ, but e-code farming is almost beyond futile for the best units. That said though, this really isn't an answer to your question. I know folly comes from Code: Fortune, which is... always rare? Not sure if that helps.

When soloing, don't hit green, just clear the way (I trigger the alarm on purpose. Two spars and two gilnaches are nothing). On your way back from hitting blue, hit green then you can hit both switches without any worry.

I'm still trying to understand crafting and when it stops becoming beneficial...

Trying to decide if I should try to get a 9* or (possibly a 10* weapon if I can, but not likely) and focus on upgrading that... or continue to upgrade my current crafted Katana?

Mainly because the damage variance on crafted weapons is insane, I know it doesn't matter for low rarity weapons (this Katana is only a 3*)

Obviously, getting a decent 10* would be better, but I don't think I'm going to be able to get my hands on one for quite sometime.

Hello there, basicly I've read about abilities and how to add them on cirnopedia but there are some things I didn't really get.

- I couldn't find a section where they explain how to add slots to items, how is that done?
- Didn't find how to add a soul either and/or boost said soul
- Also, how can I see the risk I have of losing abilities on an item when I'm trying to add new ones?

thanks in advance!

1. You add on extra ability by choosing an ablity that it doesn't have to the current available slot, using ability that is on the main gear and fodders.
2. Soul require two of the same soul, or Soul receptor, X-Atk boost are item from AC scratch that you can buy from Player shops, they give 100% chance on an exisiting slot.
3. The success is shown by DUDU or Monica

I also have a question with prepatch. :p

Before downloading the final patch of EP3, Should I select all the files in the -precede folder then put them in the normal folder (data/win32)?

Sorry if this question has been asked 14984897 times. :(

Pls.


Also anyone else having connection issues with Proxy/PingZapper ?

So basicly if I got that right I can only change the abilities of an item according to the number of abilites it already has? For exemple, if I have an item with 3 abilities then i can add up to 3 abilites on it maximum or a 4th with lower chances of success Or if I have another item who doesn't have any abilities I could only add one with a lower chance of success?

I can't just add an empty ability slot?

Pretty much.
And also the item need to be the same type and have same number of slots.

Hello, fellas.
I've got weapon with 'Restraining Crystall' potential, but I can't find info about it. It supposed to boost enemy-freezing rate, but... how much? I'm not sure if I wanna mess with my weapon, if it gives like 1%. If somebody have this potential unlocked in a weapon, then can you please tell me how good effect is? Can you even tell the difference?

1. Wait for the maintenance
2. Copy (don't Cut/paste, it's always safer to keep a backup) all the files from the "_precede" folder to "pso2_bin/data" folder"
3. Overwrite existing files
4. Wait for the end of the maintenance
5. Patch the game
6. Play EP3

Can't find any info about the freeze rate increase on japanese wiki. But either way, that latent is pretty bad and not worth the investment.

Removing the freeze status of a target when attacking it kinda kills the whole purpose of freezing them to begin with. At this point, Freeze is probably the worst Status Effect in PSO2.

I've already downloaded a few pre patches but missed I think two. If I don't get a chance to download those prior to tomorrow's maintainence, what will happen when I go to patch?

If I do find time to patch up before ep3, since I've missed two pre patches, do I have to download one manually or will they both download?

Thanks!

Ok, makes sense. Now I actually have a 6* Katana laying around in my inventory... was wondering if I should craft that just for the slightly higher stats? Might be a bit harder to grind to +10 though lol.

Also a bit tougher for me because I'm Braver lol.
Grinding gives the bigger boost.

Also, Bio Katana takes a long time to get and you need a high lvl and good gear.
Best would be to check the player shop for a good 7-9* katana you can afford.
Red / Blue Katana are good early on and you can also extend them without losing anything (as they have 45% damage variance to begin with).
Just be careful because their equipment requirements could get too high.

For example lvl 4 extended Blue Katana requires 450 dex, which you can only get at a lvl where you should be using far better gear.

The current exp penalty:

Level difference -> EXP
================
15 (or less) ----> 100%
16 ---------------> 68%
17 ---------------> 66%
18 ---------------> 64%
19 ---------------> 62%
20 ---------------> 60%

It used to be 11+ just 3 months ago, so I don't think Sega would change it again with EP3. All I know about ep3 exp is that we are getting an extra party exp bonus and TCO exp bonus.

What are the effects the rankings (S, A, B, or C) at the end of quests? I know it affects the amount of exp/money you get from the quest completion, but, correct me if I'm wrong, aren't those very minimal? When people die during quests, especially EQ boss fights, some will spam "rez me, rez me" instead of re-spawning from campship and come right back. Is it because they don't want their quest rankings to drop? Or does it affect item drops somehow?

I believe your rank in TD affects your drops at the end, but you'd have to ask someone else about that.

People ask to be resed because if the boss dies while they're dead or on their way back then they won't get credit.

It's because if they respawn at campship, that's at least 10-20 seconds or maybe even more if running on a toaster with poor internet speeds, that you'll not be in the vincinity of the fight which is a huge window for a boss to suddenly die and you lose all EXP and drops.

Its faster to get ressed, and even if the boss dies when you die, you at least get drops. That's not the case if you're in the campship when the boss dies.

Then launch the tweaker and if AIDA has common sense, the tweaker should detect an existing prepatch folder and copy the pre-patch files to the game folder and THEN download the last ep3 files (1.1 GB according to bumped).

Red / Blue Katana are good early on and you can also extend them without losing anything (as they have 45% damage variance to begin with).
Just be careful because their equipment requirements could get too high.

For example lvl 4 extended Blue Katana requires 450 dex, which you can only get at a lvl where you should be using far better gear.

Yeah I realize that higher level crafting on Braver is tough... but at the same time, yeah I should have better equipment at that point lol.

So Level 5 Extend on a 1-3* is the same as a level 2 Extend on a 7-9*.... if I can find a Red Katana with decent abilities on it I might just extend those out idk. Would cost me 1 less PA Fragment for the same result XD. (IF I can get it to +10 that is)

For now my Level 2 Extend 3* Katana +10 with +45 S-Attack on it is holding me over in the meantime.

Sorry, beyond that I don't know much about extending as I extended my blue katana, messed up and had to use a requirements -10% item to be able to equip it again (a viable option though cause they are like 16k only and work 100%) and that's it.

Gotta say, if you have bad luck with the RNG (like me), always buy finished products, I spent 2.5 million (including prices for support items) to max grind my blue Katana and as much again to get my Yuuei to +1 (failing so often that an ample amount of grind success+ and grind risk reductions didn't make a difference).

As for Luther, I heard if you return to campship your drop rate gets lowered a bit but this is just hearsay.

In TD the drops are DEFINITELY based on rank.
With poor ranks I frequently got monomates and dimates in TD3, with S and A rank I got almost only rares.

I also heard the drops are based on your rank in the last wave only (not overall), but this is again hearsay.

And um, I assume rare drop rate boost would only count for discs with 7+ stars?
Though I think at the moment 5* or 6* is max for discs

Think I might just continue to extend my 3*, it's really good for what it is and I didn't need to spend a fortune on it to get it to +10 lmao.

Once I get it to around level 5-7 extend (Which at level 7 is 420 Dex requirment) I can probablly start looking for a 9-10* that would work better.

Alternatively I could try to get a Red Katana, pray for the RNG gods for +10, and get that to level 3 extend for the same result. Would be less craftign items I need, but would be hell of a lot more expensive.

Assuming the formulas here (http://ohpso2.wikia.com/wiki/Damage_Formula) are accurate, it depends on how much attack the weapon has compared to your total attack (including affixes, skill tree, etc), your dex, and your enemy's dex, meaning that there's no exact percentage. Crit chance is another factor that comes into play. Unfortunately I don't have any good estimates on how much more attack you would need since I have no idea how much of a factor enemy dex would be. I'm still wondering how they even got this formula in the first place.

Yeah I know about that formula. It's just that I was trying to find a quick and dirty value to work with instead of doing math every time I work with crafted weapons.

Like if a rare katana has 500satk, a crafted one would need 50% more satk (750) to have comparable consistency.

Someone needs to update the mechanics of rare weapons on that formula page; it's been wrong for a while. Rare weapons don't get bonus DEX; they skip that step entirely and go straight to the cap of using 90% of the weapon's attack.

Yeah I know about that formula. It's just that I was trying to find a quick and dirty value to work with instead of doing math every time I work with crafted weapons.

Like if a rare katana has 500satk, a crafted one would need 50% more satk (750) to have comparable consistency.
I remember doing a bunch of stuff on this, a bit foggy on it since I haven't touched it in months. And if something major changed while I was gone then disregard all of this, but I don't think there's been many fundamental changes.

Essentially, Non-Rares and Crafted weapons have the weapon attack removed, and up to 90% of that attack is restored through having enough DEX (rare weapons skip ahead and go straight to 90%) . The equivalent attack added is twice the difference between your DEX and enemy DEX.

So to have DEX capped on a Non-Rare weapon:
([Required DEX] - [Enemy DEX])*2 = 90%*[Your Weapon ATK]
simplifies to:
[Required DEX] = 45%*[Your Weapon ATK]+[Enemy DEX]

While uncapped, DEX affects minimum damage twice as much as ATK does, but doesn't affect maximum damage. If you neglect crits - and aside from Critical Strike FI, it's totally negligible - then a decent assumption would be that average damage would be the average between minimum and maximum damage. So DEX would be roughly equal to ATK, and thus, you could view the difference between your actual DEX and the required DEX for cap as attack lost, as far as average damage is concerned.

So, to answer your question, as long as you're under the DEX cap:
[Required Compensatory ATK] = [Required DEX] - [Your DEX]
[Required Compensatory ATK] = 45%*[Your Weapon ATK]+[Enemy DEX] - [Your DEX]

I remember bothering to find a L65 Rockbear's DEX, and it was something around 303 or something. Works well enough for a quick and dirty estimate like this.

Oh, I read about that +100 on R-Atk 3 ...... But I'm still not sure until Ep3 is released ... Because of ...... Well, you know ..... Sega ^^;

Though I think I'll go for GuRa (mainly) or GuHu (should the party need an aggro support) ^^;

This one, considering R-Atk3 is +100 (http://pso2-skill.pwnedgalaxy.net/beta/08/v2/skillcalc.php?08kGbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIk fdt0dodBIbl2fGK8JksSI2000000doIn0000008dofJbIdeDIo nocFikfbx00008doIbfGD2odKqnGAGKhf20000lo00000007oI n0000000lbIo000000fdoIb000000f)
This one, basic tree (R-Atk 3 is still 50), with 8 SP left ^^; Left over SP is went to ZRC, the rest is R-Atk Up .... or All for R-Atk Up ^^; (http://pso2-skill.pwnedgalaxy.net/beta/08/v2/skillcalc.php?08kGbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIkbsIk fdt0dodBIbl2fGK8JksSI2000000doIn0000008dofJbIdeDIo AocFigfbx00008doIbid2OdKqnGAGKhf20000lo00000007oIn 0000000lbIo000000fdoIb000000f)

Thank you for the reply ^^
Your tree is rather fine, and I can see what you're aiming for with it.

As for the 2nd tree (if R-Atk Up 3 is still 50), I'll suggest to put all points into Attack PP Restorate, coz faster PP regeneration is kinda nice, and very important during long fight (as example: DF Loser). Even tho you feel you can handle PP management well, you'll never know when extra PP recovered might save your life :D

As addition to my GUHU tree: I use Guld Milla, so instead of Never Give Up and maxed Warcry, I choose HP Up 3 maxed lol

Quick question.
I know there is a 'nw' command you can add to the cut-in picture of your character in order to better give expressions when you take pictures, while hiding that cut-in picture for cleaner screenshot, but I think there is also an additional command you can add to make it last longer right?
Was it something like 's'?

KazukiQZ
Aug 26, 2014, 10:20 PM
@Killerwing

it's s## ,## being the number of seconds it last, the max is 30

so,

as example:

/ci3 3 nw s30 <----for angry face while looking upward, no cut-in that last 30 seconds

or

/ci4 4 nw s5 <----- for sad face looking downward, no cut-in that last 5 seconds

EDIT: Btw, there's also the t# command that control the lighting of your cut-in, 1-5 with 1 being the dimmest. As example /ci2 t5 for a bright and shining face lol

Yes, originally, I also thought of getting APPR before .... but, after reading it somewhere, Stun grenade is considered as trap too (dunno about the new Gravity one), so, 20% PP recovery by throwing a grenade should be fine, I think ^^; Though I'm not sure if the grenades is considered a trap unless I try it myself later ^^; Should the grenades won't give PP heal ..... I had to re-consider APPR after trying it again on new tree XD

Well, I guess I'll try the skill trees later :D Got 4 Tree to spare on Gu ^^; Been wondering which one contribute the most for the mpa on TD3 or any future hard to do content ^^;

Thanks for the opinion and advice :)

KazukiQZ
Aug 26, 2014, 10:40 PM
^Why not take both? :3
Both of them are on separate tree, and you also spec into Trap tree over Standing Snipe anyway (I can't comment on Trap tree, never use it lol)

APPR is mainly useful for TMG, but I guess Rifle benefit some too :D

final_attack
Aug 26, 2014, 10:49 PM
Well, I will try some builds on Gu later, and use the one I felt best for general use XD

Though I think, last time I remove APPR was ..... I need some time to look around and thinking what to do next ...... I'm recovering PP on that time ^^;

And ... yes, I think I should change to APPR build on longer fights .... Thanks again XD

Someone needs to update the mechanics of rare weapons on that formula page; it's been wrong for a while. Rare weapons don't get bonus DEX; they skip that step entirely and go straight to the cap of using 90% of the weapon's attack.

I remember doing a bunch of stuff on this, a bit foggy on it since I haven't touched it in months. And if something major changed while I was gone then disregard all of this, but I don't think there's been many fundamental changes.

Essentially, Non-Rares and Crafted weapons have the weapon attack removed, and up to 90% of that attack is restored through having enough DEX (rare weapons skip ahead and go straight to 90%) . The equivalent attack added is twice the difference between your DEX and enemy DEX.

So to have DEX capped on a Non-Rare weapon:
([Required DEX] - [Enemy DEX])*2 = 90%*[Your Weapon ATK]
simplifies to:
[Required DEX] = 45%*[Your Weapon ATK]+[Enemy DEX]

While uncapped, DEX affects minimum damage twice as much as ATK does, but doesn't affect maximum damage. If you neglect crits - and aside from Critical Strike FI, it's totally negligible - then a decent assumption would be that average damage would be the average between minimum and maximum damage. So DEX would be roughly equal to ATK, and thus, you could view the difference between your actual DEX and the required DEX for cap as attack lost, as far as average damage is concerned.

So, to answer your question, as long as you're under the DEX cap:
[Required Compensatory ATK] = [Required DEX] - [Your DEX]
[Required Compensatory ATK] = 45%*[Your Weapon ATK]+[Enemy DEX] - [Your DEX]

I remember bothering to find a L65 Rockbear's DEX, and it was something around 303 or something. Works well enough for a quick and dirty estimate like this.

My Japanese isn't superb but I believe first choice is something like continue playing episodes 1 and 2. Second choice is start playing episode 3. I personally chose first one cuz I'm not done with EP1 and 2 yet. With that said I still got a new matter board, but the events aren't triggering. So I guess the system will wait until I finish EP1 and 2 for the EP3 events to start triggering

DJcooltrainer
Aug 27, 2014, 11:17 AM
That's exactly it. Unlike with EP2, you can access EP3 before actually finishing 1 & 2 (and I think you can access EP2 without beating EP1 now, but I might be wrong about that.) I also chose to continue with EP 1 & 2, because I'm not done with all my MBs.

Are the skill trees really that much different from before? I know the placement has changed a lot but the pre-reqs are pretty much the same no? There are new skills added but we also get few SP back from Sega changing some skills to just 1 SP or no SP at all (you get them by default) so you should be able to invest those extra SPs into those new skills.

EDIT: I'm not a very hardcore player though so I don't really look too much into all the calculations behind the "best build" for dealing max damage. But if it is what you were asking then sorry and please just ignore my comment haha.

The prerequisites have changed, and the biggest thing is that you don't have to sink skill points into useless talents anymore. For instance, in the force tree, after the first three points you have to put into T-ATK up, you can go straight to the elemental mastery of your choice. You also don't have to take Flame tech S Charge in order to get at Tech Charge Advance 2. I freed up about 10 SP due to the new layout. You should check it out: http://pso2-skill.pwnedgalaxy.net/

Oh I didn't know it changed that much, cuz for Braver, at least the skills I invested in, the pre pre-reqs are pretty much the same, and I only got like couple SPs back from Just Reversal and Step Attack being default now.

Whenever you charge a technique, it fills up 1 gear stock.

While gear is stock level 2 or above, your skate attacks will shoot out elemental attacks which increase range and I think deal more damage.

It will slowly decrease over time, but charging technics and attack enemies will restore stock.

Bouncer has what seems to be the same "Step Advance" skill as the other melee classes, but it's main dodge skill is called "Mirage Step" and not just "Step".

Will Bouncer's Step Advance boost the invincibility time on normal Step form other classes the same way you can with the other melee classes?

If it helps, the JP wiki has this to say on it, but thanks to the odd way translation comes out I can't tell for sure if it works:

I was wondering this as well.

Honestly, I think it would be in the same position as Just Reversal cover, in that level 1 is enough.

Just guessing though, I personally don't see it being very useful, but I know almost nothing about Bouncer right now.
