I'm planning to do this for my Ice/Wind/Dark EL build but I'm not sure if Photon Flare is worth it and if I put the points right on the charged advances.

Would appreciate any help. :-)You aren't using any techer main skills, why are you main techer?

And no, Photon Flare isn't worth it due to the uptime/cooldown ratio. I've gotten some use out of it but that's after maxing all the skills with the intent of only using elemental masteries from techer. Instead I think you should switch to FO main, and put those points into element conversion and talis tech bonus. They'd give you better, more consistent damage than PF. You can put the last point into force rare mastery.

The techer tree is fine for subbing but that rare mastery should go into something else, though I dunno what.

EDIT: Derp, I just read that it's an EL build, Are you main techer for the s-atk? This might sound strange but you might be better off just pulling some points in your mag from t-atk into satk to use Elysion as a main force anyway. You'd lose less damage than you'd gain from element conversion, even if you don't match the weapon's element. It also means talis tech bonus probably isn't as important.

If you are solo playing, just get on a turret and shoot at it until it explodes. NPC bodies wouldn't matter. For each real member they would also have to sit on the turret and shoot at the ball.

Alternatively play BO or FO and don't give a shit.

1) Since fi stances have no penalties, is it worth getting both brave and wise stance or just focus on brave stance?

2) does fury gear boost significantly decrease the time needed for hu gear accumulation? Or it doesn't provide much change?

3) does JA/JA bonus increase the critical damage?

Do I have to hit it with a turret or normal attacks will do too? Since the turret damages are so minimal.

Forces and Bouncers tend to have ab easier time with Bal Rodos due to ways of attacking it.

@ topic Would it be a good idea as a bouncer who plans on utilizing both sabers and boots to sub braver for average stance? Also any findings on what sub class bonuses and perks favors Bo?

Less of a question and more of a request. Can anyone in ship 2 drop me to Lilipa TA H? I need to kill some gilnas and sparguns using alt for some COs (haven't unlocked).

Ty in advance.

EDIT: anyone...? please...? I have been hunting gilnas for an hour already and haven't meet any of them. I'm getting desperate and frustrated at this.

EDIT 2: Seriously? Nobody? Just a minute of your time, drop me to the TA and you can leave the party. Please?

EDIT 3: at the end, after screaming in B20, someone finally helped me. For the so-called "bad" reputation of B20, there's someone who actually cares there.

The bomb's HP is depleted by numbers of hits rather than the damage, so turrets remain a viable choice.

I said that because both classes have access to 230948239048234 iframes.

2) does fury gear boost significantly decrease the time needed for hu gear accumulation? Or it doesn't provide much change?

3) does JA/JA bonus increase the critical damage?

1) Brave will see a lot more use than Wise, but Wise is still useful for things like Elder.

2) At level 1, it is twice as fast which is pretty fast. A Partizan flourish after an attack will fill 2 gear gauges for example.

3) I don't believe it directly modifies critical damage, but it'll still be present as long as your attack is a Just Attack.


Does anyone know what the new potential on Meteor Cudgel does?

Increases the double saber gear gauge gain rate.

Okay so, I created a new character, and I'm up to Koffie's Exploration Request II. I cleared Caves when it was featured, and it doesn't seem like that clears the CO. If I had already cleared Shironia when it was featured back then as well, does that mean that I can never clear the CO?

As far as I know, SH AQ drops *11 quite often ..... might want to try those. Got my passes last time SH AQ implemented in a few runs (with 250% rdr I think, I used them once a group of Spardan appeared, since I'm looking for Erenu Trigger at that time).

I think I heard Forest drops the most. Then again, it's all about rng.

Say guys, I'm thinking about looking for some new speakers, since my new laptop has major issues with PSO2's sound. In some areas and bosses (Like Falz Luther, lasers fired by corrupted aircrafts...), it likes to distort the sound so it's all staticy and garbled. Any recommendations for speakers to work well with this game? (I know it's not my sound card, since using some old, and I mean old speakers improves the situation, but doesn't flat out solve it.)

Or, if there's a fix you can think of, let me know.

It's lag.

There's no other explanation: If your sound is distorting, it means your game is slowing down and the sound is all out of whack because of it.

I had this problem a few days ago when my CPU down throttled hard because it was at 78C -- try to find out if there is a problem causing your computer to throttle itself.

If by lag you mean framerate, then maybe, but that was never an issue on my old laptop and my new one has 2 more Gigs on RAM. I'll try to pay attention to the speed of the game next time it occurs.

It happens on other devices as well, granted not as much. Using some old desktop speakers prevents the static from the aircraft lasers, but not the Luther fight.

The wired lances' latent ability is Kurokotan (as it's translated in english patch) Destroyer, thus they will be significantly better then falclaw when used against most of the monsters on the new planet.

think of it like a charge. you want to hold your attack button, and then when the circle is at it's smallest size (and turns red) you want to release the button.

for kanran, this will cause you go to get an extra hit out of the attack, and for shunka, this will allow you to hit or hold the move key to do extra attacks instead of just the 1.

Don't count on them selling for much while they are still in rotation. Unless it's been less than an hour since the Scratch has been updated, then you may earn some money before the market stabilizes. FUN items may go up in price once they go without a revival for a while, but, still, don't expect the numbers that hairstyles and lobby actions have.

How do you properly melee Anjhadu-lili, the Shironia boss with a huge wheel? I can just guard his body/wheel slam but I can't approach him without receiving damage. Everytime I get close to him he spins that huge wheel of his and then I get hit/burn, and I'll be too busy dodging outta there to heal myself so I can't really deal any consistent damage.

Some of them are very meh because there are better 11*s, or even 10*s for their respective weapon. I would definitely say Bio Blades are meh considering you'd need 5*6*2 tier 3 stones to make a complete set ・ω・

Might be a dumb question comparing a Bio weapon with something. In certain situations, will the maple DB outdamage the Bio DB? The sunny weather latent gives 12% more damage and Bio's latent gives 8% to JA. Both have almost the same striking stats.

Sunny weather is generally better, especially considering Bo is otherwise bad for PSE bursting which is the only really obvious time where your latent would be inactive for an extended period of time. Bio is good though for FiBo. Depends what you want to do, really.

Does the braver skilltree skill -Attack advance- Have any benefit for r-atk or is it strictly for s-atk? It doesn't seem to say so i'm not certain.

Are stacked stances multiplicative or additive? For example, let's say I have Fury stance up for +30% damage with strike attacks, and then I take Wise Stance for +65% damage to strike attacks. Does that give me +95% damage to strike attacks (30+65) Or do I take my damage numbers from one stance (130%) and apply the 65% additional damage to the new total (65% of 130 is 84.5 so that would be 214.5%) I know this is a weird and complicated question. I just would like to know if anyone knows.

Whatever works for you I guess. I mean... I'm playing Te/Bo right now... and you can always bring out fighter when you need damage.

Either way, now you know. :D

I was hoping someone else would give a definite answer but I guess I'll spitball it.

Get a second one, when you're changing elements the element of the one you're using as fodder has to match the original element not the new one so just do that when you're getting it to 50. Unless it's already at 50%. I dunno what you do then, it might still let you change it. I'm really not sure.

Thanks! Just to clarify, you mean all bonuses from separate skills that aren't just skill increases, right? Like For example, Flame Mastery 1 and Flame Mastery 2 are additive, right? Or are they also multiplicative? And in my above example with like Wise Stance, which has a 35% increase initially and then an ability that increases the damage by another 30% that is additive, right? For 65%? Or is that also multiplicative. Thanks again.

Also how and what exactly ti does.Blade Fever doubles the amount of Photon Blades thrown.

Photon Blades are like Kunai, you can only use them on Dual Blades by activating its weapon action, the amount of blades is also affected depending on your Gear Gauge.

in case you didn't know, Weapon Action is (default) Shift Key.

and you can only throw photon blades when you have at least 1 bar filled on the Dual Blade Gear.

and to simplify it, Blade Fever is the main Boss Nuking Skill of Bouncers.

Take note that since Blade Fever is an active skill, you activate it the same way you activate stance skills: put it on your subpalette and press the corresponding key. Weapon action key "Shift" doesn't activate Blade Fever, it activates the weapon action of Dual Blades, which is throwing out a few photon blades. When you active Blade Fever, the amount of blades thrown and their damage increase.

Dual Blade's weapon action can also be Just Attack'd for more damage.

How do Guard Stance, Flash Guard, Flash Tech Guard and Massive Hunter's damage reduction properties stack/combine? Do they all straight-up stack, or is there something more complex at work? (EX: Striking damage reduction w/ all active at max lv would be 30% S-Damage taken.)

These also multiply.

Flash Guards are tricky, however. It's not a 20% reduction in damage, but .8* damage taken.

This matters when considering Flash Guard 1 and Flash Guard 2 at the same time. It's .8*.8=.64 damage taken, and not 1.2*1.2=1.44 damage reduction as some may expect based on other skills.

The rest work as you would expect.
For Striking damage Guard Stance, Guard Stance Up 1, Flash Guard 1, Flash Guard 2, and Massive Hunter get you .75*.9*.8*.8*.75=.324x damage taken (This would be after the extra 250 sdef from Guard Stance and Guard Stance Up 1 is considered, of course)
For Ranged damage Flash Guard 1, Flash Guard 2, and Massive Hunter get you .8*.8*.75=.48x damage taken
For Tech damage Flash Tech Guard and Massive Hunter get you .7*.75=.525

Note: The last time I tested Flash Guard's stacking was many months ago. It may have been changed since then, but I really doubt it.

How much more does +15 in any stat make a difference? Is it big enough to care?
Edit: Suppose same question for attribute % as well...the damage formula divides everything by 5 and then there's multipliers for different attacks and everything, so it gets kinda muddled. I don't remember the exact order of operations but if you're trying to decide between 2 different weapons then 15 more atk isn't worth going out of your way for unless the weapon also has a good latent.

Attribute %s are bonus damage based on the atk of your weapon. T
If you have a 1000 atk weapon that's 50% for instance then it would be treated as thought it has an extra 500 atk. That specific damage bonus what's effected by elemental resistances (as apposed to your entire damage) so no matter which element you choose you'll always do more than if you didn't have an element.

I'm a little unsure of what it says, does it say I'm spending AC or using the pass?
It's the usual pay with AC message, afterwards you get a message with choice.
You require a pass and you can use either one bought with AC (allows you to change stuff for a full hour) or a free one (single change only).
You need to have a pass in your inventory.

Fo/Te should specialize, since the weakness bonus doesn't make up for the lack of mastery. You can pick up two elements on the techer tree if you want, since there's so many leftover SP now. If you want a generalist build, sub fighter or braver. Fo/Fi can use any element as long as you hit from the right side, and Fo/Br must match weaknesses with weak stance to get the most damage possible. Fo/Fi specifically has a really strong nabarta with Elysion. Nabarta craft is getting nerfed though

Are you sure that no one in the party did any XQ at least 1 week before you guys did a full run? Because XQ floors resets after 1 week after you start advancing past the first set or when you complete all the floors.

If we skipped a floor, won't PL only registered at floor 10 too?

Oh well, there goes my passes then -_-

Edit : I haven't done Ruins XQ in months (only did a full run once, when XQ Ruins implemented) ..... I only did Forest and Dragons last Tuesday, and it's cleared in 1 go. But, even if someone did XQ 1 week ago, won't I still get to floor 50?

I only did around 6 full XQ runs so far, ever since XQ implemented btw.

Thank you very much for the replies XD

Uh yeah but I was asking if there's anyway we can tell WITHOUT having to actually equipping the weapons themselves? I know as of right now there is only a few weapons with native PA but more should be coming out in the future, do we need to try on every single one of them to find out?

You can't reset a tree that is set to a class.

example:

Your FI class has 3 trees: Tree1, Tree2 (set), Tree3. If you want to reset Tree2, you have to switch to Tree1 or Tree3 and then only you can reset Tree2.

Have just one skill tree? You'd have to buy another one, switch, then reset the first. You are already 20/20, wait for Sega to give you an All Skill Tree Reset Pass. So yeah, you are pretty much fucked.

Without an all tree reset pass, you need to buy another skill tree for the class of choice, select it, then reset the first one while it's unselected (stupid, I know).

Resetting a chosen skill tree costs twice as much AC than buying a new one.

Yes. Same for Megiverse and Zondeel and ofc buff/heals.

@LoN_Lina: The forum got a player matchup section if that can help, make sure to tell the Team's name and ship at least. Otherwise, I believe you can set your Team to be open to recruitment and add a little text with it, so people actively looking for a Team would be able to see it at the visiophone. Otherwise, there is always the good old run with random and filter them to see which one you want to ask if they'd want an invite.

Ranger is definitely not underpowered.

Good Ranger PAs are Satellite Cannon, Impact Slider, Diffuse Shell, Homing Emission (sometimes).

You should also not be using solely rifle for every scenario. Grab a launcher and use Cluster Bullet: that PA can melt most mobs if you TPS and aim a bit higher above the head. Divine Launcher, Rodeo Drive, and Cosmos Break also have their uses. Zero Distance is crazy fun to use and pretty powerful.

It also matters what sub you're using. You should be subbing Hu or Br.

I think Brave/Wise are dependant on where its eyes are. So, the Core would be Brave Stance bonus. Consider the enemy's LoS or, Line of Sight. If you're behind its LoS, Wise Stance plays into effect. In front of it, Brave Stance.

No, Ranger got nothing but buffed. Satellite Cannon and Cosmos Breaker can still one shot everything they did before (although the gear bar is a little higher), WB is still as broken as ever since Impact Slider and Homing Emission got buffed pretty hard, along with everything else in the game. Just because it takes a little more work doesn't mean it's any worse. It's way better than it was beforehand, for sure.

It's funny because Force got buffed pretty hard too, and Force/Ranger were already the most broken classes in Episode 2.

SEGA logic. Their balancing act with Episode 3 didn't put everything on equal ground at all, it just introduced new FOTMs.

If you are literally hugging the core, it's Wise. If you stand a bit further towards its feet/tail, then you can get Brave.

Either I'm doing something wrong, or Ranger is rediculously underpowered. So question is, other than Satillite Cannon, what are good rifle PAs?


Yes, Ranger for sure is NOT under-powered.

If you know how to play the class it's definitely top-tier; you should have no problems disposing trash-mobs, or exterminating bosses within seconds. The good thing about Ranger is that they have answers to every situation and can kill things fast.

When you play as Ranger, remember that 90% of the time, you will be in TPS-mode (that way you can have more control of where too shoot and will more likely get head-shots), and you should ALWAYS pre-load WB's now that Ranger has "Bullet Keep". Note that when you play Ranger, you should be aiming for head-shots whenever possible.

I also recommend getting "Gravity Bomb" (mini-zondeel) and Stun-Grenade since they're only 1 Skill Point each; they're definitely useful.

These will be your "To-Go-To" PA's:

Cluster Bullet: great damage, pretty big AoE.

Divine Launcher: note when using this PA, it's better not to aim it directly at the enemy (or group of enemies), but rather aim it at the ground right in front of it. That way, you're more likely to get a head-shot because the small AoE.

Diffuse Shell: Good when there are many enemies that are too close too you; damage is good.

Satellite Cannon: nothing needs to be said about this... we know it's good.

Homing Emission (Bossing): for sure, the advent of Satellite Cannon has not rendered HE obsolete, especially when it comes to solo-ing fast-moving-bosses. WB--->HE is still very effective. In order to use S.C. effectively, you need A LOT of time, however with HE you can dish out a lot of damage while still being mobile; SH Vardha comes to mind, for example, where there are tons of stuff trying to kill you when you solo as ranger: you can, without destroying any "unncessary parts" and go straight for the kill, by using WB--->HE on his Primary-Center-Big-Gun when he opens up his Chest plate, and then WB-->HE again on his exposed core; you'd be surprised how fast he dies.

Impact Slider: good damage; good to use to get in range for HE or Diffuse Shell.

Rodeo Dive: good damage, good to use when you need to "get the hell away" from a group of mobs.

Cosmo Breaker: Slow but good and Strong PA to use. Consider getting the Photon Blast Julius Nifta (the zondeel PB) so that you can: PB (Julius Nifta)----> Cosmo Breaker. Good for mobbing when you have too many shits on the screen or for PE-Bursts.

Additional Bullet (Gunslash): still somewhat good for mobbing, but now that Launcher has been sufficiently buffed (and good), I don't use it as much... but it's still very viable though.

One last note: Ranger is believed to be more of a "support" role, but keep in mind that you can play VERY offensively with it. That's the one thing I like about Ranger, you have the choice of playing Support, Offense, or Defense. And of course, the whole MPA will thank you for WB.

But here's a caveat when playing Ranger: A good Ranger (like Forces) can either make-or-break a MPA. If you have a bad ranger that's WB-ing the wrong places (or not using it at all), using wrong PA's for the wrong situation, well, the whole MPA's gonna suffer in that an EQ: an EQ that should take a minute or so suddenly turns into 5 minutes, MPA's become scattered or disorganized because WB's are placed everywhere. So basically what I'm trying to say, is that in order to play Ranger effectively, you need good "general knowledge" about the game and the type of enemies, not just you, but the whole MPA is up against. Perhaps I'm stretching it a little bit, but to be a good Ranger, you have to somewhat be a good leader and have good judgment.

Chdata
Sep 13, 2014, 08:18 PM
What I'm saying is that it got worse for playability for me.

Now I have even less reason to go ranger if I have to work with clunky PAs, slow PAs, or PAs that require very very specific aiming and only the ability to dive roll to dodge when I could go force or any melee class and have step dashing or mirage escape as well as many PAs that take a lot less effort and are a lot less likely to be fumbled/wasted.

But that's just my gameplay-feel preference. RA isn't a class that I can just spin my mouse and press Q to instantly target enemies and attack them quickly, nor against bosses unless they have a targetable head or something. And launchers not allowing movement while attacking just makes me constantly feel behind everyone else I party with. Nor can I really aim at things off-screen behind myself reliably.

Basically, this is the same problem I was having with FO a while ago while Gu and Br were still OP.

Been having a lot of fun with FO now that more than 2 spells are viable now.

I know this is kinda slightly off topic, but I figure you guys might know.

Anyone know where I might find video summaries of the plots of past PSO games? I never played any of them and would like to know what happened during the plot in each game.

What are now the good episode three wired lance PAs?

What are now the good episode three wired lance PAs?

The same ones are still good and better, the bad ones are still bad. Though the only one I say is bad is Air Pocket Swing. Some other PAs fall under "Why use x when you can use y" and those I feel are Bind Through, Other Cyclone and Cerberus Dance (some people like that one but I don't)

Holding current cooks bosses faster than any other striking PAs I can think of. The catch is when to use it.

Here's a question. Do you still have to hit with the tip to get the most out of it?

Yes. it's pretty much hatou in 'how to best abuse the hitbox'. Tip+wire damage. Up to 10 hits from the tip from button mashing, and wire is 5 hits dealing rougly... 3/4ths (or maybe it was 2/3s) the damage per tick of the tip's shocks. Of course WL gear increases its damage as well.

I haven't played since Episode 1. I tried coming back during the whole DDoS fiasco but that didn't work out so well... Is it possible to connect now?

Also, how is the rebalance? I used to play Gunner/Ranger and I'm probably going to be totally lost with the new skill trees. Also, Bouncer looks interesting with Dual Blades.

Can't speak for everyone but I think it's generally smooth to connect again. I'm using verizon btw. Haven't needed to use proxy/putty for over a month now.

The rebalance is quite nice. Weapon choice feels more of a matter of preference now than before when saying 'katana is the best striking weapon in the game' was pretty much the truth post shunka nerf. Skill trees had alot of the fat trimmed off of them.

There are still some old problems lingering in weapon PA design, like how bows are bad at mobbing, but many more things are capable of more than respectable damage now at least.

Do rifles actually do decent damage now? I really liked the idea of using rifles in free aim mode but they were pretty much pea shooters that were only good for Weak Bullet back then. I pretty much had to constantly headshot enemies to do any real damage with them, and even then they were outclassed by launchers, mechguns, and hell, even gunblades.

Rifles have always done decent damage (even since Episode 1), but they still haven't changed: They're used for hitting single targets for high damage with Weak Bullet up. They've been buffed considerably since then too, and now they're stupidly overpowered, but once again, only for killing single targets.

It's best if you think of the collection of Ranger's weapons as different tools for a job, rather than trying to "main" rifle or "main" launcher (idk why anyone would do this for any weapon tbh). Rifles are mainly boss killers, Launchers are mainly mob tools and Gunslashes can do both! (well, bossing with GS isn't too great, although AS does do a lot).

Also ranger has to headshot / hit weakpoints or it won't do decent damage. That's just the way the class works.

Does Klotho have a set of Client Orders for Vopar TA? I have the Vopar TA unlocked already but I am not seeing COs for it, which is kind of odd cuz IIRC the actual TA and COs should've been unlocked together... Is there any special requirements to unlock the COs for this TA? For example I need to be in EP3? Cuz I'm currently still on EP2...

EDIT: nevermind I just saws it... it's located in between the ARKs GP and Extreme Training COs so I didn't see it haha... is there only 1 CO for Vopar TA? The other TAs all have 3

Thanks.

Also, I assume for now klotho has 1 vopar co so everyone can get nice money from doing it. But eventually it will be added to the regular ones.

And I hope usual taco runs will have Vopar as SH ta instead of SH.
...actually I thought with weekly tacos people would do them in SH only but everyone still does the same SHVH setup.
And when I get to do tacos at 12 pm with work the next day, I really can't afford to waste time either >_>

quick answer: Bio, ALWAYS Bio.
Long answer for those not willing to step into the depths of Dudu Hell:
Susano Guren is a really good all class Katana and doesn't cost that much in the shop either...I am incidentally selling one for 5 mil with 70 T-atk cause it comes with very nice T-atk by itself already.

Okay it's exactly what I think it is.

When you use the limited time installation for units, you are given a main effect, a sub effect and an extra effect.

The main effect ranges from extra exp, rdr, SE proc rate, healing amount from mates or HP recovery (much like PP). Sub-effect is extra HP/PP/Attack and the extra effect seems to be SE proc rate (not sure).

Well, they also say that alot of submission actually are similiar to what the design team had wanted to do or had planned.

Such as the demon fox tail in the last AC scratch, had alot of submission, and they already planned for it.

Depends on what you are playing as and what you are playing on.

Mizer soul is hard to get in the main game, but easy to get in PSO2es

Mizer gives R-atk, Quartz give S-atk

How often do I need to input the one-time-password once I set it up?

Iirc Mizer gives a 100% success for all shoot abilities (or something, I remember something being 100%).
Point is, Mizer is a lot harder to get, I get frequent Quartz on weapons and also units, but rarely at all any mizer on weapons despite spamming mizer 13-15 ties during the Lilipa EQs and once every blue moon I get a mizer unit.
BUT, mizer units sell for ungodly amounts.
Whereas quartz 4 slot is a couple hundred k, mizer goes for 800k-1mil and apparently 5 slot mizer goes for 3.5 mil.
It's also guaranteed to sell quickly.

OTP is easy to deal with. Very much worth the extra storage and monthly rewards.

Which BARKLEY, er, SHAQ, I mean, is the best for getting 11* weapons? I don't care what weapons, just want the SHAQ that will get me the most 11 rarity weapons in the same amount of time.

You will probably nail the most in Forest SHAQ. It has a high drop rate of those 11* Twin Daggers and a godly amount of PSE Burst time.

I've done City a lot, and I've gotten quite a few 11* from there. Forest still tops it, but City isn't bad. (You also get a crap ton of capsules from it too).
