SH AQ is coming out, but not anytime soon. It was planned somewhere along the timeline.

Okay, that may be the case.

But where did you hear this? SEGA? Bumped? I really won't believe anything unless it came from a source we can trust.

Two questions.

How do I get FUN? I notice the number occasionally go up but I'm not sure why.

Second, can I change my costume colors? I've tried the beauty salon but the option is grayed out.

@GlassStar

FUN is obtained when you log-in daily, you can see that you obtain one Login Pass along with 100 (not sure how much) FUN. You can also obtain FUN by giving other players a Good Job comment and use other player's Friend Partner (For this case, your friend's Partner give more FUN than the Free Partner). You NEED to complete the Quest with Friend partner in order to receive the FUN point. iirc 10 FUN from Friend Partner and 5 FUN from Free Partner.

Then there's also the 1000 FUN ticket . The process to obtain it: 2 10* weapons >2 Excubes > 1 1000 FUN Ticket

Regarding the costume colour, you need a Change Colour Pass first, which is obtainable from Recycle Shop.

@GlassStar:

How to get Fun Points:

1) Simply Log into PSO2 everyday.
2) From the Kiosk in the campship (the place where you can add NPC's into your party while running Quests) add a PLAYER'S NPC into your party and complete the quest; Note: PSO2'S DEFAULT NPCS like Zeno, Echo, Afin, etc will not get you FUN points if you add them into your party.
3) When you send Good Jobs to other players.
4) When you do AC scratch drawings.
5) When you use "FUN" tickets (You can get them as rewards from campaigns, or you can trade in Ex-Cubes for them at the "Ex-Cube" Shop: 2 Ex-Cubes can get you a 1000 FUN Points Ticket.

@GlassStar:

Also, to obtain a Color Pass from the Recycle Shop you need to trade in a YELLOW Rappy Suit.

NOTE, however, that you can only change the main color of only specific costumes, I think only the Default ones, and NOT the special costumes that you get from AC scratch, such as the Yukata, Magica Madoka's Costume, Bunny Costumes, etc.

Hello everyone! It's been awhile since i last played pso2, i made a new char just so i can play braver and a CAST chick XD So I got a few questions regarding the new braver class hope you guys can help me :). (i tried googling but i couldn't find much info or i didn't know the exact keyword)

I like the bow over the katana so was planning to make it braver/ranger. It feels kinda "ok" for now except the damage output (maybe it's just because i was an over end abuser with my previous char). Now i would like to know which is better braver/ranger or gunner/ranger in terms of damage and clearing speed. Also what's the best build for these classes?

Is there anyway to view the new weapons and units in 3D view instead of the icons in cirnopedia?

That will be all for now, thanks in advance!

Yes.

The important thing to note, though, is that it only changes the primary colour of the outfit. (The one shown on the item description.)
You can't, for example, recolour ticket a Heretic Lord so that the red markings on the body are blue like Heretic Lord Ocean's.

Edit: Most costumes are recolourable. The ones you can't are generally the SUPER KAWAI-EEE cosplay crap for females, and seasonal items in general.

Gonna try this place again. I just bought some webmonies from Play Asia. On the page there is what appears to be a code formatted XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

Can I use that directly on the SEGA AC purchase page? Or do I need to redeem that at the Webmoney page first?

iirc, selecting the pay with Webmoney option on the SEGA site redirects you to a page to enter the code on the Webmoney site, though you don't need to create a Webmoney account to do so.

If I afked in a multiparty field and there was no one else in it, would weather effects still be able to happen?

Gigafreak

If I afked in a multiparty field and there was no one else in it, would weather effects still be able to happen?

The chances of weather effects seem to increase with more players present, and if the players are running around doing things. AFKing in an empty MPA will give you a very, very low chance of weather effects after the first few minutes.

Sega occasionally mentions that certain actions will trigger certain weather effects (in fact, the trigger rate was increased a few updates ago). We just have no idea what said actions are.

gigawuts
Oct 31, 2013, 12:05 PM
I've read that weather is triggered when a wave of enemies spawn, so run around the MPA.

TaigaUC
Oct 31, 2013, 12:26 PM
Yeah, I've tried idling to get weather changes a long time ago.
Doesn't work.

As gigawuts said, I think it's tied to enemy spawns or something similar.

Sorry if this question has been asked a lot. On occasion I get a message that pops up after I initiate a quest. The message is in Japanese and asks me for a "Yes or No" response. Not sure what this is. Some help would be highly appreciated, thanks.

PokeminMaster
Oct 31, 2013, 01:37 PM
From my experiences, it's just the game's way of reminding you that there is a specific NPC that you need to run the Quest with, so it's asking if you want to block out other parties in the MPA... But that's only a guess

Kondibon
Oct 31, 2013, 07:53 PM

Not that I know of, but you can still get drops from lower difficulties so there tends to be a surplus of them. I heard that the drop rate got buffed for enemies between certain levels, but levels aren't directly tied to difficulties.

TaigaUC

It does. The higher level the enemy is, the more times it rolls for each level bracket.
Take a look at this for example:
http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E3%83%80%E3%82%AC%E3%83%B3

Dio Ridorumo-ru will only be rolled for at 61-65.
Dagan Slash will be rolled for at 56-60, 51-55 and 46-50.
Presumably also at 61-65.
Thus increasing the chances of it dropping.


is 1885 R-atk low for a lvl 65/63 Gu/hu?

im using mizer/shootIII yas 9k
Tian set (the 3 mil per piece one)
with mizer/ShootIII

My 62/60 Gu/Hu Caseal has 1886 Ratk.
Fang Soul and Shoot 3 on everything, plus Ability 3 on Yasminkov.
Vardha unit set bonus.
Mag has 154 Ratk, 20 Dex/Abi, and 1 Tatk because I was half asleep.

Not at all. I'm a 62/48 Gu/Ra at 1762 R-atk and I don't have problem doing the SH levels. I have a Flamme Revolver +10 no potential with 28 Lightning w/o R-atk oriented affixes and my mag has 83 R-atk, 54 Dex and the others stats are dispatched, and I don't use shifta drink.
The unit set is a "browlie/brimoier/brandydos" set from matterboard 8, it doesn't have shoot affixes.
The only problem I have is stamina, at 1100 (with guts drink) it seems "almost" enough but more would really help (I mainly play this game solo with NPC).

Besides that, I have a question : Against what type of ennemies assault rifles are less effective? It's for the element I should use in order to compensate this.

@Invader J : Aside Urban AQ, you have Subdue Goronzoran in VH and SH, go to the second area, you'll have dagan, dicahda and predicahda. Predicahda Nero is a rare version of both so you can have a Nero by fighting only dicahda.

Oh, and it's possible to get runs with very few darkers but you can also get runs full of darkers so, don't waste time if you're in the first case.

10* do not bind. You cannot sell 11-12* so it's kind of irrelevant if those bind really.

They don't show up for you but you can see what's currently up.
All online games have some form of tax when selling items.
It's to prevent stuff like people buying and reselling and so on.

1. S-atk. I assume you're going to be wandwhacking and only the normal hits are affected by JA's not the wand gear explosion.

2. If you use a weapon often get it's gear, if not don't bother. Just Counter you don't need but if you have spare points you can get it. I'd need to see your planned skill tree to see how tight you are for points.

i see that partizan gear only increased PA aoe, is that really worth to get ?Just a fair warning, swords aren't worth using at all without sword gear, keep that in mind. Personally I'd drop some points from fury s up 2 to get sword gear but that'll end up taking a bit of damage from your other weapons so that's up to you.

And the AoE increase for partisans is useful for mobs or hitting bosses from farther away, a few of the good partisan PAs have really short ranges without it. I believe partisan gear actually increases the damage for sacred skewer but don't quote me on that.

Your techer tree is fine but you can use your last few points to get territory burst and territory pp save for zondeel, though I imagine you won't be having pp problems as a techer.

Your fighter tree is fine since, other than gears and stances fighter doesn't have much to offer anyway.

To be honest I'm not that good at this. ;;

Everything proceeds as normal with their maintenance ending an hour earlier to us because of the time being set back an hour, ie. maint ends at the normal time in Japan at 5 PM JST, but for areas that follow daylight savings we'll see it end an hour sooner from 4AM EST/1AM PST to 3AM EST/12 AM PST.

Left mouse button is, normally, for regular attacks, and right one - for techs and PAs. Nothing special happens if you click both, and that red circle must have been a JA indicator. Basically, doing another attack when that circle is red powers up that attack.

Either that, or it was one of the Braver's katana PAs. The circles those PAs have are the same as JAs, with the only difference being that they aren't JAs at all.

are the item expansion's perament or do they go away when my prem expires?
As shocking as it may sound, they are permanent.

Why would you buy the vita and import the game when you could download the game for free for your computer?

It's really up to you. Do you wanna spend additional time memorizing or looking up japanese phrases or the menu options? I play on my laptop and use tethering on my phone when im on the go. For me that's just as mobile as the vita.

You're talking about going over the falling platform trap?
I think it's tighter than it used to be, but it's still possible.
Just make sure you're high enough (jump from a higher starting point).

Once it triggers, an invisible wall appears for the person who triggered it.
I used to be able to jump out of it even if I triggered it, but I don't think we can anymore.

Some people will get all 3 drops in 3 kills.
Others like me, whose luck is so crappy that they've killed around 2000 Elders without seeing a single 11/12 star, will take forever to get the drops.

On my latest character I think I had to kill over 20. 10 in a row with no drops. I was starting to hate Catendrans even more than I already did. RNG is RNG, sigh. And the Elder stuff, I saw some guy posting that he got 2 in one day and was posting all his boosters and such... Can't even say how many times I killed him with 300% booster and boost days etc and not even an Elder Rod to make into ticket. The dice roll favourably or they do not. 0.000001% times 300 is still approaching null.

^You deal more damage to enemies that have the type weakness.
As example: 1000 base damage with Light Element weapon against a Dagan. 30% give you 1300 damage while 50% give you 1500 damage.

The same cannot be said to Tech weapons though, as the element on the weapon DOES NOT affect Tech power at all, aside from their normal attack.

Not quite. % attribute just works as bonus weapon attack typed as that element. So it works against all enemies, but a little better against anything that's weak to it.

Also I believe it's a bonus of base weapon attack, not including grind bonus.

So basically getting a weapon to a high attribute is important for range/melee attackers, but matching type isn't so important.

The part about it not working for techs is true though, only for melee/range.

I think it's more likely your skill trees and gear in general. Do you grind/affix your stuff?

skill tree are just general max auto heal and fury stance. I think it has something to do sword PA, no fast attack and always need charge up. That's why I just auto attack most of the time only PA when boss are laying on ground.

There are sword PAs that are performed and charged fast: guilty, ride slasher, and sonic arrow are the fastest sword PAs with sonic arrow not having to be charged.

Also remember that increasing gear level (kinda hard to fill it up for sword) that it'll increase damage, AOE, and lower charge time.

Also, what level is your sub? Also, it's naturally that all class weapons are weak since they are usable by any classes so do expect to have a largely lower amount of damage.

And I got a 11* Twin Dagger Fi Hu only

So that's a Kamui, a great pair of daggers and an awesome boss killing weapon.

On the other hand, you have your ugly 9* sword with 750 S-ATK ... man, even the 10* Fortuna sword from MB has more S-ATK. Try to +10 if you can, but don't waste too much money on it. Unless your really, really, really love swords, I wouldn't even bother using one if I had Kamui daggers.

Well that's wrong, and that's why it takes you that long to kill a boss, you should only auto attack to regen your PP and charge your gear bar. Then, learn boss patterns and try not to miss your PA.

was 44 BR with maxed Weak Stance but that doesn't help much at all when boss don't show you their weak spot except when down.

It sounds to me like your damage is so far behind simply due to not being done developing your character; it'll get better as you level classes, get/upgrade skills and upgrade your gear. And yes get dagger gear if you plan on using daggers. Get any weapon gear if you plan on using that particular weapon often.

For what i've seen in this game, avoid sticking with a weapon type, try to get all weapons for your class, try them and then just use the one that fit to the situation.

I dunno... I think some all-class weapons just plain suck: e.g. gunner's.

I dunno... from my experience, it's just better to decide before-hand what you want to main and then just go all-out on your skill tree to make that particular play-style optimal. I understand that a player might get bored and want to try other classes (play-styles) for a change... but i guess that depends on how seriously one takes PSO2 or not.... whether it's just to play casually for fun... or to play it for efficiency and what not... so yeah...

So I'm trying to buy AC (haven't bought any in awhile) and I log in on the Sega page and it brings me to this page recommending me to change my pass. Well I don't want to, but it seems I'm forced to since the other option is logout. So it's asking for my name and date of birth that I used when I registered as like a security question and since I don't remember any of that stuff, am I basically screwed on buying AC from now on?

EDIT: Nevermind. After 30mins of working around this, it finally let me just go to the AC page.

No. We've theorized on how could Sega implement "transmogs", but, as usual, they surpassed even the worst expectations.

You better have a favorite weapon camo (http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E6%AD%A6%E5%99%A8%E8%BF%B7%E5%BD%A9), because it's the only way to alter your weapon's appearance.

You shouldn't grind a 11* weapons like you would grind a 9* you'll most likely never make it to +10 because the danger zone starts at +4 .. so good luck

People recommend using the Grind Skip (→7) [ 強化スキップ(→7) ] to bypass the +0 > +7 grinding process. Honestly, I'd just use Grind Risk Reduction (+1) from +5 to +7 and some Grind Success Rate +5% if you have extra mestas to spend.

Then only use Grind Risk Reduction (Full) [ 強化リスク軽減(完全)] and some Grind Success Rate +10% to +7 > +10

Sure it costs a lot, but if you don't do it that way, it'd cost you even more. Just spam TACO's, try to grind, if it fails, wait 24h to spam TACO's and try again until you get it to +10.

If you are vita, then you cant copy and paste. 90% of item names are in katakana. Katakana is the japanese character form of romaji which is just basically the phonetic translation of the items name using the eaglish alphabet. To put it simply, you need to start remembering the romaji for each character. To search items with Gwana soul, you would search guwana using katakana "グワナ".

I highly suggest you use refer to this link for help with the characters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katakana Also please make sure you are using the right keyboard on the vita. It should be the second keyboard.

You only see costumes and parts btw because you're not on the right option on player shops. I think its 4th or 5th option on first drop down menu and then last option on next drop down menu.

If you fly through them, maybe a week? Or as little as three - four days or so if you skip anything extra and just get the necessary items. The requirement for the bingo board is to get Matter Board 13 (Or so it says on Cirno. My main has them all at least unlocked, so I automatically got that node.)

And all the required drops to get the next matter board are 100% drop rates for episode one only. So after Matter Board 10, They'll be semi-random drops all across the board again. You will also need to do each story mission, and some multiple times. That's a big time eater too.

Hope this helps give you an idea.

Upon making the account, which went fine, Webmoney's site then asks me to login, so I try, and then all of a sudden things go wrong -_-.

This screencap: [SPOILER-BOX]http://i.imgur.com/L3jQhAh.png[/SPOILER-BOX] shows what happens when I try to login.

No, you only get a trigger at the time when your mag "evolves" into a higher rank. Switching between forms that are of the same rank won't give you more trigger actions, not even once.

For Force, considering what trigger abilities to put on the mag. For FI, I use 7x Stat Boost K and 1 Invincibility, but that seems redundant with FO because I can cast shifta/deband on demand. What are some good trigger abilities to use?

I'm considering pp recovery, but I'd like some input on what others have found.

Is Dewman/Duman (or whatever) the absolute go-to class for all damage now?
Even when they add Beast race, they probably won't be "better" for damage, right?

@Nemhy:

For a katana-specialized-Braver Mag, I recommend building a PURE-STRIKING-ATTACK mag.

Reason: All Good Katanas (10* and 11*) requires over 600 S-ATk or at least ONLY 400 DEX (which you will have more than enough at Max Level). See:

http://pso2.cirnopedia.info/weapon_14.php#nav


Here are my stats for your reference in case you're wondering about your ability to equip certain katanas:

I'm a 65/65 Hunter/Braver with Susanoguren (requires T-DEF of 420; you will have more than enough at level 65) with a pure-striking mag. My stats are 430 Dex, 726 S-Atk, 468 T-DEF; stats may slightly vary depending on your skill tree.


As Braver/Hunter I have 435-DEX. This means that for me, the highest DEX weapon that I can equip with a pure S-ATK mag is "Lambda Kalicizma" which requires 435-DEX (I just barely have enough). However, like what've said above.... All good Katanas require 600 S-ATK or above... and the 11* Katana: "Kazanou" requires only 400-DEX which you will be sure to have at level 65.


Here's a CAVEAT, however... having a pure S-ATK mag is the way to go NOW... but who knows what are the requirements for new katanas in the future.

My Lyra mag is about to become level 100, and with 100% S-ATK, it's gonna be a Delphinus. I don't think I need to elaborate when I say that Delphinus has the worst Auto-Action in the world.

So I'm going to change it.

But I'm debating on which one I should get.

Attack or Blow?

Blow is what Lyra has, and it seems good but... are there any instances where a knocked-down enemy can be a negative thing like Delphinus' default Upper attack? Should I go with Blow or should I go with Attack, which seems to be a totally neutral strike?

Edit: One more question, on the same subject.

Should I switch my mag's Helix Proi Photon Blast for Ilios Proi? Or keep it? Or change it to something else?

^IMO go with Blow. There are instances where your mag can save your life, or give you more time to do combo/heal yourself when it use Blow on enemy.

If you're a Fighter with Chase Advance or whatever it's called, you'd probably want to get Foie to help apply debuffs.

Dunno about the Photon Blast, sorry. I just left mine as is.
I'd assume everyone loves the PP regeneration one.

Edit: Removed the sentence about Blow. Got it mixed up with Upper.

Force/Ranger: the blue/pink 2-set http://pso2.cirnopedia.info/unit_5.php#fegali
Plus アーム/ヘイレムジース (Arm / Heiremjees)

Gives a lot of PP, S-def, strike resistance, range resistance:
PP +26
T-atk/R-atk +60
HP+80

Pure T-atk you could go for the Negro set http://pso2.cirnopedia.info/unit_5.php#negro
T-atk +90
PP+10
HP+105
Strike Resistance
More t-atk, more HP, more r/t-def, but less PP, less s-def (a smidge) and no range resistance.

If you want s/r/t-atk all together probably go for Dragon Ex or Burn set, whatever your wallet can hold but honestly I think using a single armor set for hunter/ranger/force would mean less atk from abilities. You can always try power III, shoot III, tech III but that means losing an extra +30 from a soul, etc.

No idea what melee only go for. For ranger/hunter if you use r-atk and s-atk, I suggest Blitz 2-set http://pso2.cirnopedia.info/unit_5.php#blitz with レッグ/イングプレート (Leg / Ing Plate). Expensive as all hell. HP+150, PP+16, s/r-atk +60. Great s-def.

Highest r-atk only set is Tian set http://pso2.cirnopedia.info/unit_5.php#tian and you can add the previously mentioned Ing Plate leg. R-atk+90.

Could always go for a combination of weapon+3 units to get atk+120 also. Personally I hate this option.

Blow is pretty good. Unless you play Fighter and like to air combo trash mobs with daggers in which case holy hell is it the most frustrating thing ever.

(If you DO use Fighter and have Chase Advance, go grab zonde/foie/megid.)

As for Photon Blasts: Lots of people like Ketos Proi for the PP regen, though it's honestly not nearly as good for not-Forces because you don't regen while doing PA animations.

All of the Helix PBs have terrible aim. Helix Imera does pretty good damage if it decides to fire off in the right spot, while Helix Nifta is like Proi, but wider and it doesn't run as far.

Your last two options are Julius Proi, which has the lovely benefit of just about never missing (though its damage is single target for the most part) and Ilios Proi, which has the even better benefit of always hitting what you want it to.

@Takatsuki:

I agree with what Kietsu-San said above. I'm a melee fighter and I find that Blow is in fact very good since it tackles and knocks down enemies (not launching them to the high heavens); Blow helps when fighting enemies with a lot of HP (except bosses) like the robot-dude-with-a-flaming sword from Quarry, or that over-sized bird with a sickle who does his red ring of death on you (Luda Sorcerer), since it knocks them down so I can follow up with attacks.

I will say that as a melee fighter, the one ANNOYING AS ALL HELL S-ATK auto action that used to be on my mag is : "Upper". My god it's annoying as hell when I'm attacking an enemy and then my mag launches it 20 miles down the road into Neverland, and therefore breaks my attack pattern... now I gotta run like the wind to it before it retaliates. With that said, Upper, I guess, might be good for Gunners if they want to to juggle enemies in the air.


For Photon Blast, I use Illios Proi; the damage that it does is decent: 3000~4000 damage per attack at Level 65 with a pure S-ATK mag; I usually summon him before going into Katana Combat (with Combat Escape); that combination definitely does a lot of damage on bosses that's for sure. But me choosing Illios Proi is my personal preference though since I'm all geared up toward S-ATK.

On a different note, I can understand why players prefer Ketos Proi (PP Regeneration). Their reasons are probably as follows:

1) Photon Blast damage generally sucks so I'd rather just have PP Regen.
2) Since it's PP Regen, it's an all-purpose Photon blast that's applicable to any situation.
3) Great for PSE Bursts when I'm in desperate need of PP.

So yeah... there you have it.

Nov 8, 2013, 04:02 PM
In continuation with Raymee's & deahamlet's discusion on units:

For melee fighters, I'd "probably" opt for the Agrani Set (The Red Dark Ragne Set) since it's Dark and Strike Resistant and has a +60 bonus to S-ATK, R-ATK, and T-ATK. Either this or go for the Blue Luxe Set (Blue Wings Set) since it does has better defense than than Agrani, no ATK bonus, but +10 PP; this would be beneficial for Fighters Spamming DA, Hunters Spamming Sonic Arrow, Braver Spamming Kanran-Kikyou, etc.

XQs seem fairly variable. Without boosts of any sort you may see one weapon within 4 1-50s, but again it's all luck based. If really lucky, between all the random 7 star unit piles you may even get a really rare unit.

The main units you will be seeing in SH are the same 10 star ones you were seeing in VH, not really any more often though. New 10 star units on rare bosses are pretty hard to get. Same deal for weapons. You'll see VH ones dropping in SH probably more than you will see newer SH ones dropping.

Evangelion X.XX
Nov 8, 2013, 06:49 PM
For me, for some reason 10* weapons drops "fairly" often from Quarry (whatever "fairly" means... I don't know... maybe "fairly" for me means like maybe one 10* weapon per 2 hours that I play?); and mind you, I try to go full 12/12 MPA-ing when possible.

For Coast, the drop rate is abysmal for me for some reason.... I have never been able to acquire an Agito and have seen like 4 Flamme Icarus and only 1 Flamme Brand, not to mention that I play PSO2 a lot.

From tunnels, I hardly get 10* Weapons... in fact I don't think I ever did.

10* Units on the other hand, are a rather "common" drop, in my opinion.

Just use the patch, and generally refrain from typing English unless it's in block 20 or in a party (or your team/guild) with people you know. You don't need to ask anyone for permission to use it, and you're not going to get banned for it either.

A few questions:

1.Does weapon element decreases the damage to enemies of the same element type?
As example, Dark type weapon against a Gwanahda.

2. How much damage increase by having 50 Element toward an enemy who's neutral to it?
As example, Lightning type weapon against a Rappy.

1. No

2. Total dmg x 1.5 (but total dmg x 1.5 x 1.2 if the target is weak to that element)

gigawuts
Nov 9, 2013, 08:44 AM
The typical rule is

If an enemy is weak to 2 elements, then your bonus is 1.2
If an enemy is weak to 1 element, then your bonus is 1.3
Things weak to all elements vary.

Also, for 1. the answer is "not usually." Enemies have occasional small resistances to certain elements. A gilnatch will resist light damage by a whopping 4%, for one example. This is so negligible as to only be mentioned to make an answer more thorough.

edit: It should be said that some bosses WILL heavily resist certain elements. Vol Dragon has hefty resistances to everything but dark and ice. Hunar's sword laughs everything but light and lightning off, etc.

Kietsu
Nov 9, 2013, 10:34 AM
It's worth noting that the element multiplier only applies to the elemental part of the damage. A 50 fire sword will still do more damage to Vol than a no-attribute sword.
