Common Questions
[spoiler-box]Q: Whats are the best places for staying up to date on NGS information?
A: https://www.bumped.org/phantasy/ - https://pso2.jp/players/ - https://new-gen.pso2.com/

Q: Is the IP lock permanent? (insert conspiracy hypothesis here)
A: Currently, nobody knows but Sega themselves, if their own players in Japan are having to use VPNs to play NGS, then it's a routing issue on Sega's/Japan ISPs end that is causing this debacle. No one knows how long this IP Block will be up for but the only real way is to check after each weekly maintenance is done to see if it's been lifted and playable without a VPN. The company isn't going to officially say much or anything about it, we all know about the ToS, the risks etc. All we can do is wait and see and no, just because you logged into PSO2es, doesn't mean it's some special or specific case either.

Q: How do I play PSO2 after installing NGS?
A: You need to progress in NGS's storyline up to the point where you unlock the "Ryuker Teleport" device, the transfer option should up on the top.

Q: How do I unlock Block change, use the rest of the options in the Item Lab, partying with friends, locked parts of the map (Deset Tundra, etc is future content, it will stay locked off until then it's update hits), etc.
A: Progression through the story tutorial will unlock these, just continue through them and it will show you whats unlocked.

Q: Why does the AC item I put for cheaper than the others automatically get priced match to the person above me?
A: It's apart of Sega's new system that sets a minimum an item is allowed to sold for and I think can fluctuate. I personally don't like it but it's Sega's control over market value and to help curve the RMT trading. This doesn't effect anything else I think outside AC related items.

Q: What does "Downed" enemy mean?
A: You will see a "Downed" status specifically more on bosses, genuinely it's when the boss goes down either from damage or a status effect and leaves itself open for burst damage. You will notice it's damage thres meter at the top by it's name when it's going to close off the damage window and continue attacking.

Q: After hitting the level cap, what happens?
A: You can continue leveling like normal but as you earn exp and level again, you will be rewarded an Ex Cube each time. You can use the Ex Cubes for the final level of your weapons potential (Lv5 pot, also I'm not sure what else they're used for yet) if you're really aiming for super minmax stats.

Q: Are there main class weapon bonuses?
A: Yes, hidden 10% damage increase to you main class weapons only. Ex: 10% damage increase if your using Hunters weapons as a Hunter main class.

Q: What do Silver/Gold mobs/bosses mean?
A: They offer higher Exp payouts and a higher chance at Rare drops. They also drop Silver/Gold weapons which give BONUS weapon exp during grinding.

Q: List of Potential conversions from PSO2->NGS?
A: https://pso2na.arks-visiphone.com/wiki/Portal:New_Genesis/Potentials

Q: Is there a Language option for JP NGS just like Globals version?
A: No, Tweaker is the only alternative still.

Q: Are there Race/Gender stats?
A: No, Race/Gender stats ONLY come into effect when you're playing PSO2.

Q: Do Red boxes respawn?
A: No

Q: Does the official launcher always file check?
A: Yes, it's a bit annoying but it doesn't usually take very long.

Q: Will successor classes make a return?
A: Nothings been officially said about this, seems like a big no or rather a huge wait for these to return but likely anything the Successor classes used will be or already applied to current or future classes in some form or another. Frankly don't have high hopes for them, Sega will likely go in a different direction since this is the opportunity to add new classes/weapon types after Luster makes it's return in 2022 (won't be called Luster, currently unknown name for it).

Q: How do I multi weapon?
A: You do it at the item lab, theres an option for it but the cost is pretty heavy and increases the higher the rarity of the weapon is. You can only do this with the same weapon series/rarity. It only pull stats from the main base weapon too.

From what I recall, they're not worth using over NGS weapons since they have a lot less base stat. You can use some for utility like Austere fills up the PB gauge faster and Atlas keeps it's Will potential. I believe I saw Cras had 2/3rds the base stat of the 3*s that drop on NGS, don't think crazy affixes on Cras would push it over affixing up those 3*s. They're probably fine starter weapons but, once you get a 3* NGS weapon drop they'll just hold you back outside of the ones with some utility.

Edit: Didn't answer the initial question, I believe all NT weapons were useable can't remember if OT weapons showed up. The rarities are grouped up so I believe 1~6* are 1*s, 7-12* are 2*s, 13-14*s are 3*s, and 15*s are 4*s on NGS.

For normal running, it is a default option (even for non-CASt forms), but for Photon Dashing, yes, it is a scratch bonus.

You can't upgrade or modify old pso2 stuff in NGS in anyway. You aren't "transfering" things, NGS just has separate stats for them.

I see. I would still need it. Would be weird going from hover to running for photon dashing. Sega got me already.

The Tweaker team has stated that they will continue to provide English translation for the JP version of NGS.

If you are playing the JP version, the game and the Tweaker are not connected to a storefront like the Microsoft Store, Epic Games Store, or Steam; the Tweaker can be downloaded from the arks-layer site directly, and the game can be installed either directly from SEGA with their installer or via the Tweaker.

Other than what Anduril said, it's worth noting that, if you care about the story, expect the story translation to be very slow or to not be available for a long time. The story translation hasn't been available for the current JP PSO2 since March, because the major update back then caused issues with the translation patches.

Technically, it is available, but via a series of manual patches (broken up by Episode) that are available on their discord.

adding a common questions tab to the OP so hopefully people look there first otherwise i guess people can point them there, it's definitely going to be a long post over time. I'll add stuff to it later today but any questions pertaining to classes will be added to their class threads because I just want general info here. I suppose if it pertains specifically to GBL or JP, I'll just give it that tag but if I make any mistakes about it, let me know because I will have minimal knowledge on how GBL is handled on specific things.

I just hope Global and JP will have similar files, so maybe its possible to just.....idk.... transfer the files with english text and change a version thing for it to be integrated to JP server. I dont really know what Im talking about but I hope something like that will work lmao

NGS is integrated in PSO2, and switching between them only takes a loading screen (it's the same as switching blocks or switching to the challenge mode/battle arena ships).

I'll be updating some of threads tomorrow (later today), I'm enjoying the game a lot and grinding so I'll put in a little bit of time to adding material locations etc which I'm sure you guys have already been seeing float around.

Class meta's, I won't be touching this yet. not likely until maybe after the 2nd week or so. while some class combos seem obvious, I don't want to steer people in the wrong direction and I will wait it out while those are testing class combos to do their thing because I'm playing different classes and leveling so I'm not exacting putting that time in myself. I guess do what you feel like for the time being if you dont care about meta.

have fun guys

Considering the fact that while a boss is stunned is the best time to wail on it and use your PB, especially since EQ bosses also get a defense debuff during it, "useless" isn't the word I'd use... It's also not uncommon for bosses to get chain stunned.

Don't think SEGA made an official statement back when they recovered from the DDoS and a ton of people had issues connecting even within Japan, and I don't think they will make one now. So there's no clear answer if and when ISPs will able to be to connect to the game without a VPN/Proxy again. From the first time something like this happened, everyone just started to regain connection randomly after months. So we're probably going to be left in the dark for some time.

This sounds like the exact same stuff Sega did around ep2 or ep3 if my memory serves me right, which affected how many peers could see their address. I'm not knowledgeable on that but I remember the explanations were based on a lack of the address being properly announced. At the time it was basically a ballot to see if you would be able to connect or not to the server. I could, without a vpn, despite being overseas, which was an exception, while there were many reports of jp players being locked out.

Virtual fullscreen is supposed to use your desktop's resolution, but it doesn't work well if the windows desktop scaling is above 100%.

To add onto this, which method would be safer? I assume connecting to public servers with Nord could be a bad idea (and I'm already doing that so I'm probably boned) but they seem to charge an arm and a leg for a dedicated IP.

And how about speeds? I'm noticing some pretty nasty lag during JP peak hours with Nord, I don't remember AWS being particularly laggy way back when I used it, but that was so long ago I hardly remember to begin with.

I forgot to add this question to the OP

when you over level at 20, you get Ex Cubes, you use those to upgrade the final level of your weapon potential (the increase is miniscule) so unless you really really want to minmax, you can get 5 of them to do so otherwise you really dont need to go that far and just settle for Lv4 pot

however if you dont care about Ex Cubes, ya maybe work on another class or character

xylomarim
Jun 13, 2021, 06:49 PM
Okay thanks for the info! Then looks like I'm moving onto another class then 👍

The ex cubes would definitely be worth doing with end patch meta weapons though, for these at 4*.... think not

Questions regarding Multi-weapon o-o

- If I use Rifle as base, Tmg as sub .... can I still use ChainTrigger?
- If I use Multi-weapon, combine them at +0, then upgrade the weapon to +30, the sub weapon will be counted as +30?
- That "innate affix thing" (Fatal, Attack, Termina(?)) .... if I have them on base, do sub get the bonus too? Or it only affect the base, and for sub, must have it's own innate-affix-thing?

Considering Tmg is expensive, I was wondering if I can use other weapon as base _(:3」

Thank you.

- I heard something about some bugs involving TMGs and multi-weapon but can't say for sure.
- The sub weapon doesn't really matter. When it vanishes all that is factored in is the base weapon's stats (i.e. Swords combined with Rod will scale techs with striking multipliers afaik)
- The Preset Abilities will work regardless since it all counts as one weapon now just with the functions of the other you combined it with.

Chain trigger doesn't work with other weapons even if they're multiweapons combined with TMG, but it'll work with TMGs regardless of whether theyre combined with something or not. Think of it like just having both weapons equipped at once rather than actually combining them.
They share the stats of the primary weapon so you don't need to bother grinding or affixing the secondary, but since weapons from the same weapon series all have the same stats and pot anyway it doesn't really matter.
I heard they changed the damage type thing to no longer only be based on the primary weapon though, so if you combine weapons with different damage types then you'll need to take that into consideration with your affixes. I'm not really sure how true that is though.

Also, even though you can equip it with only the class that can use the secondary they always have the model of the primary on your back at first when you switch to them. So if you want to idle in the town with your favorite weapon, make sure it's the primary, since you can't use an attack to switch it there.

Oh, my plan is to use exclusively Tmg, but using main weapon's pot to make it (hopefully) cheaper ^^; Gonna need to see market prices tho.
Since so far it seems GuTe seems nicer than GuFi (for me), I hope Talis is cheap ^^; Or if Fi's weapon is cheaper, I'd go for GuFi, I guess .... or Rifle since it's Gu main ^^;

Do the PB follow base (main) weapon?

As far as looks, I'm using handgun accessories for both hand, and invisible camo, so, looks shouldn't matter at all :D

Do the PB follow base (main) weapon?The PB is based on the last one you used. So if you use a PA, normal, weapon action, or skill from one of the weapons then that's the one that'll be picked for the PB. I've run into this a lot with my launcher/rifle where I use WB then want to use the launcher PB but accidentally use the rifle one because I forgot to use a launcher attack to switch back to launcher first.

I see people saying that various things are a waste of resources/meseta like unlocking potential on 4star weapons, because we will get stronger stuff later on.

I gathered some info. The classic 13* units have 28def, the 11* 26def, 1* 24def. People say that the top tier classic units(28def) are plenty for current content, so why do we need to upgrade($$$) the 4* NGS units instead of running lower star(with Fixa) or ultra budget 1* classic units?

pro tip: you can get away with using Cras gear in the current content to save on resources until 5*s hit or a very strong 4* series is release (doubt this will happen). the only real reason youll jump to the current 4* gear is if you really want to minmax (wont be by a massive margin) or you dont have Cras gear to use. frankly maybe go with 3* gear but maxed out if you want to somewhat save on things? maybe just get away with just the Lv1 potential too, its honestly up to you how much you want to invest into the current gear.

i know i didnt exactly answer the question directly but yes, people are right about wasting resources on current gear when you can get stronger stuff later assuming the upcoming EQ drops better gear.

Hi.

Currently downloading NGS JP version.

Is it true that I'll need a VPN to play it since I'm from outside of Japan (I live in Cali, USA)?

一部エネミーには、特定の属性の攻撃を加え続けてダウン値を蓄積することで属性ダウンと言われる特殊な状態 異常を発させることができる

Which basically means in EN:

"It is said that for some enemies, when continuously attacking with a particular element, there is a 'down' value that accumulates which causes the element down. This results in a special abnormal state."

But the the main thing to note is と言われる in the JP line above which basically means "it is said that so and so..." without going to any further specific details/links/proof/etc.

Then later, there is the line:

攻撃で与えるダメージは蓄積値に関係なく、攻撃の種類によって蓄積値が決められている。

Which basically means, the 'down' value doesn't depend on damage numbers, but on the type of attack.

And then, there is another important line below it:

属性ダウンに必要な蓄積値は、ダウン回数ごとに増加していく

Which basically means, this 'down' value (threshold) increases every time a down state is incurred on the enemy.

Breaking all of Pettas Vera's armor doesn't affect the drop rare right?

I know breaking the crystal on its back stops the attacks where it jumps in the air, but as far as I know there's no reason to break the armor other than the one with the weakpoint under it.

If I turn on body type synching to change a character's skin tone, will it keep everything I didn't change the way it was before or change it all after the fact?


I have heard that but I've still have to see confirmation. Hard to do so when every room wants to do it in a different way.

I really wish there was a definitive answer on this because as far as I know they stopped doing that for EQ bosses after Elder specifically because of the drama it caused

Breaking all of Pettas Vera's armor doesn't affect the drop rare right? People keep saying it, and even if it's true it doesn't seem worth the time it takes, but I'd like to know for sure so I can at least get my argument straight when people insist on berating the group for not breaking all of them.
I know breaking the crystal on its back stops the attacks where it jumps in the air, but as far as I know there's no reason to break the armor other than the one with the weakpoint under it.

i havent seen a clear answer on this either, just frustrated when ppl dont focus the wp part when it glows and ppl decide to break everything else.

Today I happen to wait for a Gigantix in the Northen Areio and had imprudence to leave an area whith 32/32 ppl in it. When I tried to reenter I got into another instance of Northen Areio of same block with just few ppl in it, while some of them (3-4 ppl) tried to kill a Gigantix - absolute useless and suicide act btw. So I had an idea about this endless waiting have something to do with a fact of Gigantix appearing there and not in the instance where majority of ppl was. Any thoughts?

pro tip: you dont need a 32/32 lobby to kill a Gigantix boss, you also don't need to be 8/8 for EQ bosses either with how it scales. if you joined those 3-4 ppl and you were all Lv20, you could have killed it but if you had shitters who were Lv19 and below doing 1's thinking theyre helping then I can see why you would be a little annoyed

I don't think the scaling is linear either, but it kinda comes down to less people means individual player output matters more, and more people means individual player output matters less, but there's also more opportunities for a larger percentage of the players to not be able to do enough.

I think I need more details. If you mean the bar not filling up all the way, I think that's just becauyse you can build towards downs even while the enemy is downed, which would include the break bar.
Otherwise I'm not sure what you could mean. Not every down is a break though, There's like 3 other ways to stun the boss and sometimes they just happen when the break bar is almost empty, which causes it to break immediately after the stun.

SuKKrl
Jul 5, 2021, 12:55 PM
We got it to break state as usual (word break on bar and with it refilling while it is stunned). After the boss got up the bar showed as if it were empty but it not in a break state. We got an elemental down in it but the break bar spent most of the fight bugged. I've asked around and seems like it isn't the first time that has been seen.

It's not exactly useless granted its Cras gear at least, once 5* gear is released in Dec/Jan then it will be for sure useless overall. You should only hold on to gear you want for memories or stuff you know you used a lot in PSO2c, completely up to you though


the OG armors since day 1
in defense sure because 28 Def vs current 56 Def 4* is obvious, if you didnt do God affixes on your Cras units then I would agree but if you did then they're still worth using for the overall attack spread. Worked out just well for us who waited on 5* gear soon

FOnewearl-Lina
Oct 31, 2021, 09:02 PM
Even with god affixes, very least you should make a new weapon since they have higher base attack and multi weapon comes in handy when you want to say, set off a stationary sticky bomb whilst still being able to use Launcher PAs while that bomb is active.

As for units, you can get up to 10.6% on Ranged Attack if you use Geant and really want to burn your money on Ragras Soul 3. Even with Ragras Soul 2 that's a gap of 3.2%*3 between Geant and the old units. Also if you main RA the Geant penalty really doesn't do anything since status effects wear off fast.

I've included some screenshots if you want to do your own comparison on slightly old vs year old gear:

Charged Gifoie? You have to keep in mind that for Fo at least you're getting pp back when charging because it takes so much longer to charge. It also benefits a lot more from the charge speed skill for photon flare. As a non-Fo it isn't really worth using, but as a Fo it's your best single target fire tech provided you can hit the spot you want with all 3 hits.

Nope, just normal uncharged Gifoie at Daidal's feet.

I guess if you time them right you can get free counters, but they don't regenerate PP so you'd still need to use rod action.

Not including main class damage bonus, but including elemental weak, the DPS is:
Uncharged Foie: 306, uses 15 PP
Uncharged Gifoie: 295, uses 20 PP
Uncharged Gifoie on counter: 615
Charged Gifoie + Photon Flare Short Charge (PFSC): 359
From this DPS table (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YEg-6eViChVV7HDDlNlgFPJf3qbyIUeAlLYPr9b99t0)

According to these data, I conclude:
- It's better that you use uncharged Foie whenever possible.
- On PFSC, use charged Gifoie whenever possible. If it's not possible (ex: the front core may have you hit the head instead), use uncharged Foie. Combining this with PP Convert might be great depending on the situation.
- Use Gifoie counter whenever you think you can, it's the highest DPS Force can ever get.

A little addition; if you are Force/Bouncer, you may want to use Jet Intensity with Jet Boots when the enemy is downed. Its DPS is 444 as a sub, which is still the highest on almost all techs above even with PF + PFSC, just below Gifoie counter. Since you can't counter when this Daidal is downed anyway, Jet Intensity becomes the highest DPS on that core after PB. Finish it off with an addition Jetsweep Jolt (DPS: 403) which is almost always available after Jet Intensity (almost, cause there's a bit cooldown).

Addition: Target is Giga Daidal with fire weakness from Halloween seasonal event.

Yep I'm already geared up with boots and Jet Intensity (I just multiweaponed boots onto my talis because I'm lazy).

As you said, charged Gifoie hits the head if you target the core so it looks like I'm going to be spamming uncharged Foie for this event.

Also, you can't counter charged Gifoie so I'm guessing that's a typo? When spamming uncharged techs I prefer to use rod action to recover that 30 PP and still get that counter attack.

Oops sorry yup that's a typo, supposedly uncharged. Fixed! Yeah I agree the Gifoie counter is quite situational and quite unfavorable when you are low on PP and Daidal didn't do anything for you to counter again, in the end you'll stick with the usual tech + wa counter most of the time.

I guess if you wanna kill things faster or just want to have the thing, then go for it, but I still am on the side of saving meseta for now, and at the very least, wait to see what the Xmas event on the 22nd has to offer.

Why ranged Relics have so low potiency percentage? Only 18% compared to 27% of Melee/Tech is kind of meh.

The only rod on store dropped to 80m overnight, good thing I didn't buy it.

I'll save my meseta, but the potential is actually fine(?) it's 3% more than the Greaga Rod with 10% PP save.

Edit: Also, if you were crazy enough to multiweapon Relik right now, you could go mechgun/rod or some other wierd combination to get a wierd potential.

I don't think the potential is bad, I actually think it's pretty good, just not so good as to be worth spending that much on. To be honest, I don't think any weapon is worth spending that much on. The prices are only so high because of the lack of supply, combined with the high demand. It's probably going to drop significantly.

Ok...
How on Earth are people even hitting 35? Clearly there's something I'm missing. Don't tell me they just kill enemies for hours because the dailies give fuck all. Or are they just running the raid and nothing else? I'm level 28 and stuck at the next BP prerequisite.

All of my equipment is 4 star or higher, max grind with their max amount of abilities.
I've done the whopping SIX cocoons (it was a lot of work believe me, I had to ice my wrists after the 20 minutes it all took).
And there's no more side quests because that's just...a theme with this game. :l

-Do all Cocoons and the Tower
-USE those extra SP's on your class main/sub trees so it bumps up the BP
-Gear yourself, buy 5* weapons, +40/Pot Lv3 or 4/Affixes. I assume your units are affixed properly.
-Do Yellow Triggers until Lv30 (this can get expensive, incredibly boring and for sure repetitive. Recommend joining trigger trains)
-When Lv30, go grind exp at one of the 2 areas in Retem @ Rank 2 (Rank 1 exp is absolute garbage)
-LITERALLY do all your tasks that give 100k exp each
-EQs if you meet the BP reqs

thats honestly really it

A very quick question:

Can the level 64 malevolent daityl Axe be plinked to death if there were enough people anklebiting*?
Does he have a drop table or would the game just break if he actually died?
Do you think he's a genuine mistake that they don't know about, or do they let him come because it doesn't matter?

*anklebiting = doing 1 hp of damg until something dies....unless there's a hidden limiter on it that makes it such that things being killed 1 hp at a time can't ever die even after hours of shooting/all the natural hp would be gone.

For what it's worth, you get no drops from if you don't meet the level or BP requirements for enemies, and before that change it was simply impossible because it would leave as soon as the storm ended.
I'm 100% sure the devs know about it, everyone had been talking about it since gigantix came out. They even hinted before the game released that even though lake halphia would very rarely have very strong enemies in it, which was probably about the daityl, even though it got added later. If they wanted it to be a normal gigantix they expected people to fight, they easily could have given the zone a more accessible level than 60.

how does damage reduction work?
There's also damage resistance from affixes and Unit's innate damage resist (below DFP number), I wonder if they also work just like the one from affixes as multiplier or something. if anyone got reference / link in swiki please share it, as i can't find anything yet

I wanted to know if damage reduction are somewhat worth it, unlike in old pso2 which only stacking +dmg +hp or +dmg +pp
(i noticed that pp affix gives less power level though)

I wanted to know if damage reduction are somewhat worth it, unlike in old pso2 which only stacking +dmg +hp or +dmg +pp
(i noticed that pp affix gives less power level though)The amounts of damage reduction we're getting per source aren't really worth focusing on with gear, since as far as I know they work like they did in classic, That being that they're multiplicative decreases to your damage taken, not a multipalicative damage resistance increase. So a 1% DR is multipling the damage you're taking by 0.99, and two would 0.99*0.99, which is like 98.01, the different isn't that big anyway, but there aren't damage resistance numbers that are big enough to make it worth focusing on over hp unless enemies start doing more than 500 or 1000 damage, but lol no one can survive 1000 damage without decking out with defensive stats anyway,

Recent damage reduction fixes article here https://pso2.jp/players/support/bugfixes/i_measures_20220120_1/

I think it says it’s less efficient stacking multiple damage reduction affixes as they are calculated as multiplicative? A good defensive setup I am using is 600hp units and a quintel weapon with it’s 50% damage resist barriers, can survive most one hits in latest purple trigger

Damage Reduction is not worth it for lots of reasons, and not only due to its multiplicative nature:

1. Assuming a character with 500 MaxHP, an affix of 2% damage reduction (Guard III) is similar to adding 10 MaxHP (10.101010... but you get the idea), which is Stamina II. For 600 MaxHP, a 2% damage reduction is similar to 12.121212... MaxHP increase.

2. Increasing maxHP instead of damage reduction also increases the restoration of effect of Resta Sign, which helps everyone nearby (miniscule, but measureable)

3. Everything is absolutely avoidable. Sure, the amount of players who can perform perfect plays and complete entire EQs without getting hit even once is 1 in 100000, but increasing one's survivability over attack power is in the vast majority of cases negatively effecting their efficiency. Now if standing still and absorbing hits allowed a player to dish out more damage than when avoiding, then we would have a leg to stand on.

4. (somewhat tied to 3. but not exactly the same argument) The game is designed so that if something is supposed to be always avoided, then it deals enough damage so that it instantly kills even the absolute beefiest equipment+ability combinations we can think of. If something is not supposed to be always avoided, then it is almost as if it didn't hit at all. Resta signs are so plentiful and they also do not prohibit attack actions from taking place while using them. Sega has replaced the mechanic of "if you get hit you have to spend time recovering HP" with "if you get hit, you get knocked down or flinch".
4b. If you see people dying, it's not because they did not have enough HP or damage reduction; it's because they neglected using a Resta sign when they got hit, or they simply did not avoid anything and run out of Resta signs.

this doesnt apply to me but if you're bored enough I'd like you to put an argument for Gigantix because I guarantee you this is going to be the main source at why someone would reply back for why they chose to do Dmg Reduction fixas over HP, choice in specific units, choice in affixes etc.

Yes damage reduction is not worth it but it is a lot cheaper than the hp options, I got the add guards capsules instead for new units cause half price.. lol

So now I’ve been using full +50 シュヴァル set with no fixas and quintel boots with fixa atk 3 on my Bo.Fi, stats are 570hp 136pp and 11.4% power on every equipment. With シャッキx10 food in aelio purple (no techter), I survived dragons flaming super jump with 36hp left at the price of getting lol’d at by my party for surviving that attack..^^;

(...)


personally i think cirquem isn't worth it from someone who plays only about 1 hour per day

Lv1: +18% Power, +1% PP reduction and resta hp recovery based on your weapon and unit affix counts (max at 15%)
Lv2: +20% Power, +1% PP reduction and resta hp recovery based on your weapon and unit affix counts (max at 15%)
Lv3: +22% Power, +1% PP reduction and resta hp recovery based on your weapon and unit affix counts (max at 15%)
Lv4: +26% Power, +1% PP reduction and resta hp recovery based on your weapon and unit affix counts (max at 15%)

Lv1 need 150 photon scale
Lv2 need 200 photon scale
Lv3 need 300 photon scale
Lv4 need 600 photon scale, so that's 1250 total

you may substitute using N-潜在能力解放代用材/Lv.1/2/3 (total cost like 7~8 mil in ship 9, not sure on other ship), but then you still need 600 photon scales to unlock the last level

I can confirm that it's 500 separate transactions. Take example, buying a stack of an augment capsule counts as 1, while buying 3 of them, one at a time, counts as 3. Buying different items at the same time will still count as just 1 also. It's tedious, but that's how it works.

Google made a change (idk why) recently and nobody around the world who was playing foreign Gacha games or games in general can no longer use their card through Google Pay. So I think the other alternatives is to go back to marked up WebMoney cards or if your bank supports foreign transactions to purchase AC straight from PSO2's official site itself. unless you can manage to get a JP bank card somehow. Nobody knows if Google will reverse this card paying block anytime soon but everywhere who played games outside NGS is pretty upset about it (Sega has nothing to do with card blocks)

Ship 2 eng community is just fine, nothing really significantly different than probably what you remember. I wouldnt say player count matter since well, thats Sega fault and its a thing on Global too

I'd assume so, I'm not entirely sure but you should probably call your bank and let them know its you buying from Japan in case they lock your card or hold payments.

I havent bought AC since the block and I havent checked to see if my card is good to go, my alternative was to use a JP google play account/VPN when i decide to do so

Is this game dead already?

Yesterday I was hanging in Retem and a concert occurred and not a single person was there. It's just awful when you compare PSO2 concerts and how those were always full on the JP server...

I tried to get peeps to yellow trigger with me in Aelio in the PSO2 discord but they're just yelling about anime and EQs and totally ignore me.

I want to play more of this but it really feels soulless without an active team and I don't have friends that want to play this with me.

Is everyone just hanging in Kvaris? Cause that would mean it's the same problem as PSO2 again where nobody does early game content anymore and late comers just have to grind quietly and alone.

Finally, I was told to multi-weapon daggers and double saber but they don't really feel complimentary? I lose whirlwind if I dagger too much which is devastating since I need to keep it up for DA. (I hate how this isn't a PA anymore) I feel no reason to use daggers as a multi-wep I feel they'd be better on their own, but in that case what do I put on DS?

To address these two things at once:

You can get the concert boost even if you are in Central City or the Kvaris Camp (as long as you are actually in the city/camp and not in the Salon when the concert ends), so most people who care about the boost tend to be in Kvaris Camp when the concert is going on (or just about to end).
