5s SATK qliphad unit affixing help?

[NightlightPro]

Welp, I have asked this on the quick question thread, but i didnt get any answer..

Well it's the affix boost week and I really need to get my 5s S-ATK affix for my qliphad units. The real problem is that I don't know how to affix and which ones I should pick..the best, the better? like, is elegant power even worth on this?

also my units are 3s atm with junk affixes and i rlly have no idea what to do.. (still a noob at affixing)

so i rlly need a step by step elementary guide to get my 5s done

thanks..

You can simulate it using the Affix Simulator found here (http://www.pso-world.com/forums/showthread.php?228666-PSO2-Affix-Simulator)

The bigger thing is.....how much money do you have put into it?

But like Ashley50 said you do have the simulator if you wanna toy with it.

[NightlightPro]

dunno how to use that and i do have like 150m ?

so a step by step guide would be much appreciated

Selphea's guide is what you need : http://fulldive.nu/2015/01/06/pso2-affixing-101/

[TehCubey]

Selphea's guide is outdated. It's a good introduction to the basics but it was made before doom break or extreceptors were a thing. Not to mention ether factor.

[NightlightPro]

Well if someone who has the patience to guide me since i don't really get a thing about this stuff.

All l need is to get my units from 3s junk affixes to 5s best s-atk

For Qliphad, you either want to offset its weaknesses or accentuate its strengths. So that's either going to be "affix more HP" or "pump more PP into it". Elegant Power would work as an option for the latter, as would Bayari/Act the Soul and Flict Arma.

5s is fairly straightforward to affix for. Upslot penalty from 4s is 40%, which can be offset with a Support Item. You need 4s fodder, but how you get that fodder depends on what affixes you want.

To start with, get your Qliphad to 4s. To do this, buy junk with Stat I and affix the Stat I to use as junk affixes. Upslot penalty is 30%, which will cost 20 Excube to offset. Depending on what your final affixes are, you may want to affix a one of your final affixes in advance. For example, if you want Flict Arma or Alter Arma on the final product, you can take the option of buying 3s Extreceptor and upslotting with three junk affixes.

[TehCubey]

Don't upslot from 3s to 4s with only junk affixes. It's better to already put some affixes on the units while they are 3s and it's cheaper.

Below I will show a 5s apprentice soul/modulator/power III/flict arma/noble power (or elegant power, or tenora boost, or whatever you want) recipe.

It's just an example, meant to illustrate basics of affixing. It also doesn't have ether factor, because that's advanced stuff and frankly I'm not 100% confident with it either yet.

would act soul + modulator + alter arma + power 4 + elegant power work?

[ashley50]

If you have all the necessary affixes, Yes.

[TehCubey]

Here's an example of how to affix a 5s. Assuming you start with 3s units with garbage affixes.

Step 1 (http://i.imgur.com/YOoUbeh.png). All fodders aren't prepared in any way, just bought from the visiphone. By "Vol Soul", I mean here any soul that boosts power - Quartz Soul, Soma Soul, etc are good too. This is 100% during boost week, 90% without boost week so you should either use a +30% affix booster (and not +10%) or add one power power fodder.

Step 2 (http://i.imgur.com/wQkysvn.png). This is where the upslotting from 3s to 4s takes place. Feel free to use Alter instead of Flict Arma, whatever you want.

Step 3 (http://i.imgur.com/2P5Rqm4.png). Upslotting to 5s while simultaneously adding Noble Power and Modulator. This is 100% during boost week, 94% without it.

I just came up with it on the quick so the whole thing can probably be done more efficiently. It's just an example meant to demonstrate basics and principles of affixing/upslotting.

i think better replace Alter Arma with Deus Factor it's probably cheaper

[Dephinix]

would act soul + modulator + alter arma + power 4 + elegant power work?

Adding onto Lancer Fate's reply, if you have 150m, are you sure you can afford it? I thought elegant power was like, 28m or something. You basically have 60m if you're trying to affix all that with elegant. When I upslotted to 5 using Bayari, Power IV, Mod, Flict Arma, and Elegant Power, it cost me 100m altogether. About 12m to upslot, having most of the foundation already on the base weapon. Might want to price hunt before selecting your affixes.

[Altiea]

i think better replace Alter Arma with Deus Factor it's probably cheaper

Wouldn't Deus be harder to affix, though? With Alter Arma you can just tack on an Ext fodder for 2.5m and you're set. You lose one slot, but it's easier than attempting to upslot Deus Factor.

[NightlightPro]

so which affixes should i go for?

as long as it guarantees 150 satk and some pp or hp maybe ?

[hoangsea]

get power VI from zieg, it' easy to get tho

[ralf542]

get power VI from zieg, it' easy to get tho

For units?

[Altiea]

Uhhh... You can't do that.

I personally dont do modulator because I feel is too expensive for what it gives. If you have the money, then I guess you can do it, but in case you dont, I think is possible to do: Soul, Atk IV, Stam/spirit IV, Alter/Flict, Elegant/Noble at 100% upslotting from 4 slots, and is not very expensive save the Elegant item itself.

[ZerotakerZX]

What a friendly thread. Pretty noob question, and so many helping hands, really kewl

Not sure if it gives 150atk of course, but seems like a well-rounded option for 5s.

Soul, Atk IV, Stam/spirit IV at 100% upslotting from 4 slots

Only 125/135 Atk and 98% with 10% boost week.

[TehCubey]

4s modulator fodder is 3m on my ship, used to be 2m before boost week. Sounds reasonably priced to me, considering you get +30 atk in return.

[NightlightPro]

bayari soul, deus factor, power 4, flict arma and elegant power is what I'm gonna plan i guess and this would be probably the best

5s modulator is 8-9m for me so yeah..

[TehCubey]

5s modulator is 8-9m for me so yeah..

This is why my recipe is an upslot from 4 to 5s, so you can use much cheaper 4s fodder.

probably an effect of the cute japanese girl in the signature lmao
