Megid and Ilmegid are good for general mobbing. Megid is a lot more useful than Ilmegid in Shironia due to most Shironia mobs having weak points and a ton of HP and/or damage resistance. Ilmegid is expensive and weak, but hits lots of enemies per cast. Uncharged Namegid does about triple a charged Megid's damage so you can use that for single target mobbing. Gimegid and Ramegid are suitable for Zondeel combos. Samegid can be used for single targets like Namegid, but it's mostly restricted to wide enemies like Windira (which it can usually one-two shot).

Light isn't very good for mobbing since fire/ice/lightning/wind all do mobbing better, and light is only effective against darkers. But it's good for Cradle of Darkness since every spawn encounter is mixed. Light has Grants for precisely targeting weak points (mainly useful for Micda because of their shell), Gigrants and Nagrants both combo well with Zondeel (Gigrants kills stuff faster but Nagrants will continue hitting enemies as they spawn, does more damage per use, and costs less PP). Ilgrants can be used similarly to Namegid and usually takes out mobs in one-two hits again. Ragrants is basically restricted to bulky targets at close range, but wipes them out faster than anything else thanks to its ridiculously low charge time when crafted.

Elysion Sazan would be cool, but without that, wind is basically Sazan and Ilzan for mobbing, and Ilzan is really weak. So its only notable mobbing quality is a strong, cheap auto-target tech. Gizan would be cool if its range wasn't so bad, and the damage wasn't concentrated in the final hit (final hit does more damage than the first four combined, 10 * 4 + 60).

Really up to you, but if you're stuck with one tree, I'd suggest going light just for having Ragrants to boss, since Ragrants is one of the best boss killers against darkers.

[Sizustar]

Any techs I should be using? Dark has Ilmegid, I guess. Light has Gigrants..?

Depends on what you fight, Dark Vibrace, Megatsu, Il Grant start, at close range, Ragrants, etc.

Dark all the spell have their use.

I was wondering if there's any way to participate in that 7-11 stamp thing from outside of japan. I'm not even sure how it works, but I'm assuming no? Hoping maybe that there's a work around as I've been wanting rukmin for a year and a half. I figure it'll be either binded or ridiculously expensive if not.

[BlueGlacier]

how to compare between "100sdef" and "90sdef with 5%sresist"?
which one is actually better?

[Rakurai]

The 5% damage reduction will always be better, if I'm not mistaken.

Defense has diminishing returns based on how high your stat is compared to the attack of whatever is hitting you, but those percentage reductions have no such issue, plus if you're getting hit harder, then they have more of a benefit.

[wefwq]

-Boss rush will allow more kill but decreased drop quality due to low clear rank
-S rank will result in higher chance of rare being dropped but takes more time

The actual best way to farm saiki is by using rare trigger and being in rare trigger group, but this item alredy got taken off from casino shop.

The best way to do this as things are requires a party of 2 minimum ideally 3.

-Leader drops to area and rushes to boss solo.

-If the boss is normal leader passes lead to other pt member and they restart mission.

-If the boss is rare the leader dies and lays there dead while the other players get srank.

-Once one other players have srank one hops into boss room.

-Once player2 is in boss room the leader can go back to campship, drop down to where the others are and get srank kills.

-All then kill boss.

Repeat.

They do, but for a combined effect less than stacking one Mag skill and something like Hunter's SATK Up 3.

Repeat.

From what I have read, S-Ranking or in actuality "kill points" only increase the number of drops from the standard boss pool. This pool does not contain any of the Saiki units.
Is it any different for this boss in particular? I don't see the point in S-ranking otherwise.

Boss fodders and having high risk 30+ you have a good chance at finding clones, mesetan, the rare lightning boss. I'd suggest VH over SH for these to gain fast risk. If you get lucky you can make a significant amount of meseta if you have a shop to sell the things you find in them.

[Atlantis419]

They do, but for a combined effect less than stacking one Mag skill and something like Hunter's SATK Up 3.

So basically it doesn't stack as if both were giving the amount it's supposed to at 50%? Because I think it looked off every time I look at this thinking there should be more of everything but there isnt. also unrelated how exactly does switch strike work? Seems nearly every boot ive come across has nearly the same satk and tatk. Or does it switch the combined Stat of everything? Thanks btw.

[Vatallus]

Clones drop modulator on every weapon/unit they drop no matter where you fight them. As for which EQ has them the most... I really have no idea. I've seen someone claim FC but for me FC is only good for quartz fodders. Only got clones twice in 50 runs. I would say Forest or Ruins myself but it might just all be luck based.

Atlantis419 - Jet Boots by nature use T-atk stats. Switch strike changes them to use S-Atk stats when you activate it.

[Atlantis419]

Oh so basically even when you attack with a PA it calculates based on your tatk. So I guess it's for like an all out attack build that still wants to use jet boots?

[Vatallus]

If you plan to run Bouncer with any class that doesn't use T atk then you would want Switch Strike. so ie Bo/Hu, Fi/Bo, stuff like that. Assuming you wanted to still use Jet Boots over Dual Blades. Personally my Bo/Hu is setup for both.. and so would my Fi/Bo if I had multiclass boots. lol

[GoldenFalcon]

So basically

They do stack. But, they are saying that doing a pure Satk mag and putting SP into Satk Up is a better decision

[Atlantis419]

OK I think I'm getting a clearer picture of things. I screwed up a bunch of stuff trying to get creative, guess I won't have to continue this weird mag I've raised to 165 nor leveling braver as a sub. Unless weak stance affects the boots pas also? I know it's good for the techs part but it doesn't read as if it would affect the pas. Well I guess I might as well ask then if you just wanted to specialize in boots, why wouldn't fo be the best choice to sub then?

Switch Strike only consume 1 SP, so why not.

Because Fo is a casting class, and it's main skill work better as a main skill, it doesn't really offer anything as a sub class.

If you're kicking a weakpoint (which pretty much any boss has) then it's helping quite a bit, but still, Fury Stance would be better

And speaking of Fury Stance, if you want to specialize in boots, I'd say Hunter subclass is the best. Unless you count magic as part of specializing in boots (which I don't)

I meant if you stack both skills, you get 95 + 95 SATK (along with TATK and RATK of course, but that wouldn't be stacking so much as diversifying), but you can stack say, Bouncer Mag and SATK Up 3 and get 95 + 100 SATK while still gaining the benefit of a Dex Mag's variance reduction and enemy minimum damage reduction.

[GoldenFalcon]

but you can stack say, Bouncer Mag and SATK Up 3

But Satk Up 3 is technically 124 Satk for 16 SP, instead of Braver mag costing 5

[Selphea]

But Satk Up 3 is technically 124 Satk for 16 SP, instead of Braver mag costing 5

It'd really be 23 SP for 185 SATK, on top of the 7 or so more base SATK from just from subbing Hunter instead of Braver.

Economy would be an issue, if there was anything worthwhile that could have been bought with the saved points on Braver side.

Probably because the stats after crafted is the same, no matter what the unit is (be it *1 vs *11) as long as they got the same ExtendLevel and recipe. The only difference is set effect.

Faren Set probably good enough as it is (I got one set, the S-Def one .... and I didn't craft them for tanking purpose). Sure, feel free to craft it though, if you liked the design but didn't like the bonus per unit. ..... if you want to craft unit, it's better to find the set effect / design you'd like, but it got low stats (I'm using *3, since I liked the unit's design).

2. Did they increase the odds of Big Vardha appearing in the Desert free fields? I found 2 in a row last week and had only ever seen it once before then despite playing since August the year the game was released.

3. If your Mag already has max Trigger Actions, can you give it another device to change one into another and, if so, which one gets changed?

Does damage done per normal attack affect how much pp is regained? I got TMGs for my Fo/Te with a level 3 spirit collector to see if it'd be noticeably better than a gunslash with the same potential (at least until I get the 12* one), but not sure if I should bother +10'ing it. Though currently at +0 it doesn't seem to be that much better than a gunslash.

Nope, damage doesn't matter. Each weapon got it's own PP recovery (fixed), modified by skills and potential.

As for PP recovery speed, Gunslash is better than tmg ..... I've made a little comparison for some weapons PP recovery before (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hseUAYy4AJA). For long-range, Gun-mode gunslash should be really nice, for melee, DoubleSaber / JetBoots is best in term of speed imo. Please note that the video made as Gu (Lv10 APPR).

Back in PSO1, DEX was used to improve your accuracy. A ranger with little DEX use to have difficulty hitting it's target.

Now DEX just reduces your damage variance, and doesn't really matter much when using uncrafted 7*+ weapons due to the hidden DEX modifier they have (90%-100% damage variance).

He will drop his sword faster if not being wailed on. This is usually why people wait and don't hit him.

It's a secondary effect, so you can't search for it specifically.

Just look at the list of players crafting the unit install for the field you're interested in, and check if the install they're offering has the rare drop boost (Which should almost always be the case).

You can craft it yourself or just request someone else to do it for you.
Area Rare Drop are from Limited-Time Ability/Timed Ability craft, not unit craft one.
You can't really search for the one that got Area Drop Up since the game somehow didn't allow you to, but some people put their sub-effects on their craft kiosk comment, better read it up.

If I am to believe the japanese wiki (which I do) then it works by resetting all aggro on the affected mobs and they target you

but, if anyone damages them before you do, then they go after that person. (I'm looking at you, Il-megid person)

and towers don't generate aggro, it's just their initial target like a code protection

Succesfuly performing parry when PA animation still plays will result in PA automatically reset it's animation, resulting in slightly longer duration, it will also give invicibility during PA, longer reach range and more damage power. Oh, and shiny effect so it's looks slightly more badass.

500-600 is fine. Don't go more than that, you're sacrificing too much ATK in doing so. At most, I would say that 1 HP crafted unit is good (PP for the other two, if crafted at all). No HP affixes at all outside of maybe Diabo Soul (but that's because it has 5 more T-ATK than Elder Soul). 500-600 is enough to save yourself from most one-shots and survive a lot of tag-team combos from enemies that may happen. Resta with Brilliant (power craft) can heal about that much uncharged if you have around 1200 T-ATK from base + affixes + unit bonus (ideally, you'd have more than this, but this is pretty basic at level cap).

You do have to be careful about not getting hit during PP Convert, but you should have a minimum of 130-140 PP, making it mostly unnecessary for mobbing. Bosses are easy to solo without getting hit as a Force so you can use PP Convert with zero issues there.

I don't see why he can't have a weapon and units with HP, PP and T-Attack? All of my Weapon units have Technique VI, Stamina VI, Stamina boost and that was before they allowed us to use 5 materials. Adding a 4th one now is got to be very easy is you got cubes to spare to buy Ability Success Rate +30% items. Hell, I'm waiting to get a Saiki set in order to do so myself (if SEGA could hurry up and give us Gunne Ginna-gam trigger items in the casino).

Anyway, I got my own question to anyone who's played as a Fighter. I love Limit Break, but I was wondering if it could work in conjunction with Halfline and Deadline Slayer? My theory is no since Limit Break brings you HP to maximum of 25%, but the strange thing about this is that when ever I use it, the music changes the the "Low HP tune" even if my HP is full (at it's 25% maximum), hinting that I could use these abilities to hit harder.

[LonelyGaruga]

Because right now, it's viable to go 4-5s entirely of ATK, which dramatically increases your damage output. Not that ATK hasn't always been the best way to go, pre-PP crafting just had PP affixes being relevant. With PP crafting, PP affixes became a lot less valuable because you can usually get enough PP just by using PP crafted units, so pure ATK affixing is a lot more viable than it used to be.

With your setup, you only have +35 T-ATK from each weapon and unit. If you went Tech IV/Soul/Tech Boost, you would have +80-85 T-ATK per weapon and unit. 140 vs 320-330. If you went 4s or 5s, you could easily have upwards of 120 ATK per weapon/unit. Each one alone adds a few % to damage.

With PP crafting, you can have 130-140 PP with zero affixes, 155 with Saiki. So PP affixes aren't as important as they used to be outside of specialized scenarios. And HP is useless if you have too much of it (500-600 is a perfectly comfortable area to be at). So there's no good reason to not go pure ATK after you hit the HP/PP you're comfortable with.

To give an idea, you could go Tech III (or IV)/Elder Soul (or Diabo)/Modulator/Technique Boost/Flict Magia for 135-145 T-ATK per weapon/unit (on top of 3/6 PP and, if Diabo, 35 HP). Or you could scrap Flict Magia for 4s and have 115-135 T-ATK, with 3 PP if Elder and 35 HP if Diabo. Then your units. Either you have full PP craft Negro (+40 PP, +90 T-ATK), or 1 HP/2 PP (+100 HP, +30 PP), or you have Saiki matching that (+0/100 HP, +45/55 PP, +60 ATK.

Keeping in mind that ATK is about 20-30 for 1%, you add up a lot of damage for stacking ATK, while already having sufficient HP and PP. Affixing anything else is usually a waste for a Force. HP is relevant for other classes, since they have super armor or access to Hunter as a subclass, but Force has no business getting hit outside of mistakes, and 500-600 covers that. To be clear, I don't mean between 500 and 600, but more like in the 500s/600s range. Only question left is how much PP is necessary. Affixes can be adjusted to fit that need, but ATK is always the next priority for Force.

@LonelyGaruga

I'll have to admit that it would be a better idea now (and a cheaper one) to use Diabo Soul instead of HP boost since it's only a difference of 10 HP and it gives you more benefits, might do that with my future Saki set.

That being said, I would never recommend crafting units just for the sake of adding 3 PP on a unit. Been playing as a Fo / Te for almost a year now and there hasn't been one instance where I was in a situation where 9 PP could have made a difference that would have justified all the time and money that it takes to craft units. Sure you can have it done by other people, but it's still very expensive just for 9 PP.

As for needing only 700 HP, it depends on how you play. If you're always playing with others who are willing to use their moons every time you get killed due to a bad camera angle or just the fact that you can't see 360 degrees on a map at any given time, then yes, 700 HP will do the trick. But if you're like me and any other completionists, you'll want to do all the client orders, Ark Quests, Story Quests, etc.., you'll be soloing a lot with NPCs, meaning that you're the primary target now. So more HP means more chances on getting that S-Ranking for that client order and not using a doll or redo a quest.

Also, you try to kill Diabo Igrithys alone as a Fo / Te with 700 HP and let me know how that turned out :p

PP craft adds +10 per unit now. HP craft similarly adds +100 HP per unit. New crafting recipes. I guess you aren't up to date on crafting so I won't say anything more on that outside of expense not being a reason to not suggest something. If it's too expensive, that's their call.

I play with barely over 500 HP and have little issue with deaths occurring anywhere, solo or MPA. I don't UQ much (haven't run a single UQ on my Fo/Te because I'm running AQs for level 17 SHAQ discs first), but a friend of mine that does has little issue with just 1 HP crafted unit and the other two being PP, with no HP affixes. That puts their character at about 610 HP. Factually speaking, no, it is not dependent on how you play, it's dependent on how lacking in skill and/or equipment you are. 500-600 range is enough. If it is not, improve your skills or your damage. 700+ is overkill unless you're a human/cast with Diabo Soul affixed, in which case you get it without losing anything.

There's no benefit in a solo Diabo Igrithys at all and no situation where you should solo it, unlike every other quest type (barring EQs). The relevance is about on par with asking me to solo a TD as a counterargument. Not that solo Diabo is even difficult, it's just a waste of time. 700 HP would be enough to always survive an attack, which puts the fight as something I'd rate as far less difficult or skill-intensive than anything MH pulls. So your little challenge is neither something sensible or something that requires much in the way of skill. It's childish.

[milranduil]

Sure 500-600hp is usually enough for a single attack, but you couldn't pay me to use my fully attack affixed crafted Saiki units in UQ, just no. I made some semi-tanky units (Zieg with Ragne/Tech3/Spi3/Sta3) just for using FO in UQ because there are too many bullshit combo attacks for me to care about every last t-atk. Maybe I just suck or something, but after 12 hours of anga farm, I'm not going to be playing terribly well enough to pay attention to garongos rolling at me from multiple angles while anga is in his bitch slap mode. To note, without deband cast on me, anga slap can still deal over 700 damage to me, so if you feel like dying to OHKO just because you didn't catch a glimpse in time, be my guest!

[LonelyGaruga]

I was told by my friend that they were getting the +100 HP unit to avoid getting killed by two-hit combos from mobs, so I don't know what's going on there, since that would imply enemy mob attacks ranged in the 300 area. Which seems about right to me, they did about 200 damage to me as a Te/Hu. Didn't get combo'd much either.

Maybe your MPA isn't wiping the enemies out quickly enough? I dunno. They seemed to die quickly to me.

[Z-0]

The problem isn't really the enemies, it's mostly stuff like Anga's slap. If it decides to critical, it can easily score over 600 damage.

[Alma]

aren't timed ability on naberius UQ have HP bonus?
like 60-80hp per unit (depend on the recipe)

a FO/TE without hp affix should have at least 700+ hp on UQ with those timed ability.

@Dark Emerald EXE: Kuna is +10 PP, Io is +100 HP, Katori is +100 S-ATK & +50 T-ATK, Fourier is +100 R-ATK & +50 S-ATK, and Claris Claes is +100 T-ATK & +50 R-ATK, IIRC. Not 100% positive that each of those goes to those boosts, but those are the buffs that the 5 items give. (EDIT: Just checked, and I was right on the combination.)

@ikon: Crafting Whitetail makes you lose the +10 PP that it gives, so it's not worth it. Also, when people craft for those type of units, it's better to craft the Blitz version, as it's a waste to craft the Gloam ones.

Crafting White Tail with pp craft would give it better defense and R Res though, right?

[SPOILER-BOX]Um, anyone with ExLv10 ☆１０ knuckle crafting online? I'd like to craft a knuckle. I can get online if there's someone that can do it online atm.

Thank you very much.[/SPOILER-BOX]

Weapon crafted. Thank you very much ^^

If I buy one of these extra AC crafts , does it only apply to that one character or all in the account?

I haven't played since the DDOS. I've missed a whole lot of stuff. Since my internet decided to connect to PSO2 regularly again, I feel like playing. So before I left, I was really psyched for the Jet Boots Bouncer. Is there any detailed guide on the class? Like, builds-wise, what type of mag I need, sub classes, etc.

[loool]

I got two quick questions about hunter PA.

1. How much does Sacrifice's Bite boost your melee damage and does higher PA level increase the power?

2. I noticed that when you press shift while using Ignition Parry there are wind like animation playing. What does it do?

1. 20% buff to damage, regardless of level. Level only increase Sacrifice Bite damage.

2. That wind-like animation is a parry. If you managed to parry an enemy attack using the wind, the PA will do 2x damage.

Nope.
Better check item description, it tells which NPC that item will delivered to.

1. It boost your striking damage x1.20 (20%), but only valid for sword, if you swap to other weapon type the effect will gone.
PA Level will only effect it's initial damage dealt when sucking on enemies.

2. It basically tells you if the parry was a success, which means increased damage output as long as the PA still going, it also grants you invicibility for a short time.

[Triple_S]

2. It basically tells you if the parry was a success, which means increased damage output as long as the PA still going, it also grants you invicibility for a short time.

You'll actually get a wind-like animation regardless. It just indicates that you attempted to parry. If you're hit right when that appears, then you get the greatly-increased damage (and I think range as well) and invulnerability for the rest of the PA. The earlier this activates, the more hits of the PA get the boost, so try to time usage of this PA so that you use it and immediately parry an attack.

[knight1301]

Do PAs have JA?
Then about Immediate Destruction potential, when I have JA my 1st PA's damage will be increased right? So what happen to my 2nd and 3rd PA if I spam 3 PA in a row after that JA?

[KazukiQZ]

^If you JA them too after the 1st PA, then yes, they will get the potential (and other JA skills bonus) effect.

Notice the red circle glow? That's the JA frame, and if you make a perfect timed attack from it, it count as JA.

Is there any way to unlock accessories for our Support Partner?

Or do i have to already have the support created for the accessories to unlock on both when i use them?

[AutumnChronicle]

How do I unlock the COs for Zieg's units? I've already completed all his other COs and he thinks I'm trustworthy (yellow smiley face), but the COs don't show up. Do I have to progress further into EP3 or increase my crafting level or something?

It's a shop exchange. If you've done the "craft a 9* and above to Ex6 and above" quest, you should have the tokens to exchange for the units. Just be forewarned that they're disproportionately expensive to grind and affix for the relatively weak set bonus they give.

Hello !

Quick question.. I've been playing PSO2 for a long time but I just got a new PC so I have to reinstal everything; the thing is I don't remember where to get the game, and when I google it the "Playpark" website doesn't recall me anything so I think I wasn't going there back in the days..

If anyone could show me the way that would be great :)

Thanks !

PSO2Tweaker is the easiest way to download, install and patch the game. If you could at least transfer your game files from the old PC and point Tweaker to it, it might save you from a lengthy (~27Gb) download.

How exactly do you create Timed Abilities for Naberius Ultimate?

[Jessimanjaro]

Can you use two stance abilities at once?

I started as a hunter, but I think I want to begin maining bouncer with dual blades for a bit. If I have fury stance, will it stack with elemental stance? If not which would generally speaking be better to use?

Not really a question...just wishes they give the option to change the color of sclera in the eye =/

You can have "a" stance from each class up at the same time.

One more real quick: on units how do I know if there is a set bonus for using multiple of the same set? I can't seem to figure it out, I find some combinations to give me mroe S-atk but only when I'm using multiple pieces of it. I can't seem to navigate to a window that shows me a set bonus.

Its better to have a set of 9* items then random 10* units you find that are mixed and matched.

Is there a specific way to get the Timed Abilities for Ultimate? I can't seem to find them

So it seems I have to reach level 30 for Timed Ability crafting... is that true?

Yes, that's correct.

If you don't want to level your ability crafting, you can use the visiophone to search for the recipe and request the craft to someone else.

[Dark Emerald EXE]

About how much is it to craft a unit?

[GoldenFalcon]

Hmm figured people would go to Special 8.

[GoldenFalcon]

Hmm figured people would go to Special 8.

Is it worth doing?

I haven't been able to, but I'd assume 2 mil more (3 mil total)

edit: not counting having to unlock extend level 5, because I'm lazy to try to math

[Charmeleon]

With crafting costs and the cost of materials, level 8 special craft costs about 3x as much as level 3, and level 10 maybe around 5x as much.

Level 3 special craft gives you 277/249/249 defense, level 8 gives you 323/295/295 (46 more in all defenses), and level 10 gives you 336/308/308 (59 more in all defenses). Not really worth it in my opinion, but if you have a lot of meseta to burn (or you really want your defenses maxed) then you might as well max it. Otherwise stick with level 3.

Is Elysion still worth getting?

[Terramax]

Hey guys, I'm logging on for the first time in ages.... and I can't remember what my Sega ID is.

Would your Sega ID be your email address? Or name of your character? Or something completely different?

I was going to try and have Sega resent it to me, but it appears you have to answer some questions which I also don't know the answers too, it seems, so I gotta guess it.

[LonelyGaruga]

Is Elysion still worth getting?

Yeah, it's still a good weapon. Fo/Te can grab 1 SP in Wand Gear + Wand Lovers and use Step with it now, makes it a lot more versatile than it used to be.

[Z-0]

Is Elysion still worth getting?
Yes, Elysion is still a great weapon. Don't use it on its own though, it's a supplement to your main set of weapons, and should be used with the following techniques:

- Sabarta
- Nabarta
- Ilbarta
- Sazonde
- Sazan
- Nazan
- Namegid

All these techniques are best used uncharged rather than their charged counterparts (although you should always be charging Ilbarta if there's more than 2 FO attacking with it, or for the final cast). I feel like I missed a tech or two but I think that's everything.

[Dark Emerald EXE]

Which reminds me....don't think Female Newman 75 FO/ 75 TE can equip Ely w/o having S-Atk in Mag.......unless im missing something.... (provided I'm Ice/Dark Build)

Edit: Namegid not charged? Thought it did more when left charged due to the EXPLOSION!!!!!!!

How do I start my own Anga room without it joining up with others? I put a password on it but I still cant get a 1/12 room.

[.Jack]

Is Elysion still worth getting?

It's situational for a lot of things. For instance when I'm gathering high risk in VH Quartz AQ using Ely + Namegid + 30sec PP regen as Fo/Te the boss is dead before I run out of PP so it deals very good DPS in certain things. As a main weapon compared to others, not so much.

[Xaeris]

You need to tick the second box underneath the password entry to make it an isolated MPA room.

[Z-0]

Should you have 10 points in Normal Tech Advance just for use with Elysion?
I have it in my lightning and ice trees, don't have it in my fire tree though (so Wind/Dark will suffer if you're using Sazan/Nazan/Namegid with a fire tree). My lightning tree doesn't have Rare Mastery Force or Talis Tech Bonus, and Photon Flare is only 2, so it depends on what you want. Definitely get it in your Ice tree though, plenty of points to spare there.

[Kiyumi]

Ah I got it. Thanks!

[LonelyGaruga]

Edit: Namegid not charged? Thought it did more when left charged due to the EXPLOSION!!!!!!!

Namegid does 30% of its power notation uncharged, and 100% charged. With Elysion, it's effectively 51% uncharged. So on paper and in practice, uncharged Namegid is better DPS. Of course, it also burns through PP like butter melts in a microwave, so it can't be used without PP Convert, but most dark techs still have better DPS than charged Namegid. Charged Namegid is good because it is efficient, not because it is damaging (though it does have good damage still). It has one of the best damage/PP ratios for techs (helped by PP Charge Revival) and has auto-target, so it's easy to use and versatile, but not actually necessarily the best damage route.

[Kiyumi]

Is Zieg one of those affection-based NPCs? I completed everything he gave me, but he stopped giving me new orders after finishing the Intermediate order. Am I going to have to repeat his only repeatable orders for months before he gives me the next set of orders? :\

I think you might have to be a certain level. What level are you?

[Kiyumi]

About 50 or so on the one I did the orders on.

I looked it up. You have to be level 60.

Get to that LQ! With client orders and 75% boosters you could be up to 60 in no time.

Most people use boots for melee.

Pure casting Boucners aren't extremely effective. However, many Fo/Te's opt to craft a pair of Jet Boots (TD Jet Boots typically) for mobility and speed running purposes. Specifically for TAs.

Fighter is probably Hunter's best subclass, due to Brave Stance working well with WarCry / War Brave & from just being another S-Attack focused class. Brave Stance gives you up to +45% damage when you are NOT directly behind the enemy's face/field of vision (certain bosses can get wonky about this).

Braver is also a decent choice. Average Stance is a smaller boost, at about +20% ~ 25% damage (Skill Simulator page is down at the time of this post & I'm not running the game at the moment), but its unconditional. Braver also has the option of Bullet Bows, should you have trouble reaching an aerial target or such.

[GoldenFalcon]

Brave Stance gives you up to +45% damage when you are NOT directly behind the enemy's face/field of vision (certain bosses can get wonky about this).

Yeah, it goes by center of model. For example, with Ragne, you have to be on the side of the center core to avoid being in Wise Stance's zone of influence

You can try this build for a Hu/Fi. Bare in mind that the Fighter has some unspent SP. The reason being; Several of Fighter's skills are either niche use or require you to main Fighter (play as a Fi/Hu, not a Hu/Fi). You can change whatever you agree/disagree with. This is just a simple, quick-rough-idea.

http://pso2-skill.pwnedgalaxy.net/skillcalc.php?09fbxIkbxIkbxImbxImbxImbxImbxImbxIm0 jdBdBdoIbi2dBkcISfqnb2JkrAIs000000dBdAfJIdKeBGFGK6 dn00000jdoib0000000fdo000000lo00000007oIn00000000I bIo0000008doIb0000008

Should you decide to play Fi/Hu instead, you may want to ditch Striking Up3 & Wise Stance to dump points into Limit Break + Half/Deadline Slayer(s) + Crazy Beat. It's extremely risky, but: For 30-60 seconds, you will get +450 S-Attack plus an additional +20% damage... at the cost of locking yourself to 25% of Max HP (for that 30-60 seconds). All of that would be further added to the +45% Damage from Brave Stance, the +30% from Fury Stance & the various JA Damage Bonuses from both classes.

Usually leg > leg > arm > arm > face (lower) > middle face (upper)
The rest are usually follow the upper leftover face until he's down.
