Why does it look like Speed Rain does way more damage than Heavenly Fall on bosses? I thought Wired Lances were the shit. How much damage will the Gear add?
>>
>>8646841
Seems to be about 20-25% from eyeballing it. Can't say I've extensively tested it though. And as beautiful as Heavenly Fall is, there's a few things that can put out just as much or more damage simply due to how slow it is. I can throw out 3x Sonic Arrow with my Sword for more in the same amount of time, the difference is just PP cost. If you're fighting something that staggers for ages (Guwanda) then Heavenly Fall seems to win out, shorter stuff or stuff that's hard to hit reliably with it there's better options.

30 Hunter. It was a fully infected version which has completely retarded HP, and Hunter has no real way to hit the weak point after all 4 legs are broken. There's a few skills that can hit it (like rising slash with sword) but the damage isn't any better than just whacking at the legs or body.

Pretty terrain specific but I'll keep that in mind if he shows up again. I tend to just Sword him until he's about to fall over since I can do more reliable damage with Sonic Arrow spam whilst he runs and jumps around like a faggot.

Just go to channel 1-4 and join games with nearly full multiparty slots with like 30+ mins of running time. Don't join ones that are like 2 hours though, as they'll probably leave to take a break very soon. Good missions to join are hard free fields, hard city, and hard rappy mission

Your friend should feed it any hunter weapon, as the ability rises, feed it primates to lower the ability then feed it weapons again to lower the s-def

same with you, but with trimates i believe

>>8651919
Striking - Melee weapons (Gunslash included) + Monomates as needed
Tech - Force weapons + Trimates as needed
Ranger - Range Weapons + Dimates, I think furnishings can be used instead of Dimates too but not 100%

Posted in wrong thread.

So, according to JP Wiki, Ability does:

Raise minimum damage(stabilize damage fluctuations)
Raise Technique damage
Raise PA damage

So, it looks like it's better at being a secondary stat, therefore better coupled with a SATK or RATK mag?

Can anyone else confirm what status effects work on each boss? I dunno if I have them all:
Rockbear: Burn
Caterdran: Poison, Freeze (pretty worthless unless you stop attacking it)
Vol Dragon: Freeze (OP as fuck)
Guwanada: Burn, Panic (Great in party, useless solo)
Dark Ragne: Never seen any statuses work.

Debating what to throw on my Rose Bouquet, right now it has Poison III but the only thing it's good for is the easiest boss in the game right now. Might do Burn since it works on at least 2 bosses and hopefully has some use on the new ice stage coming out.

That depends. The people I usually do Dark Ragne with; we clear him in about 2 minutes. That leaves plenty of time to get PSE burst.

>>8658153
the people wanting items with his soul on it will fight him
>>
>>8658153
Ragne soul infused force weapon drops, but only the ones on hard mode would be worth it. The EXP from PSE bursts during emergency codes is way better than just going for ragne, so people usually just ignore him unless they want weapon drops.

>but only the ones on hard mode would be worth it.

If two weapons have the same soul in each, you can actually move the soul to a new weapon at a 50% chance.

My friends and I can't yet consistently do hard mode Ragne, so we run him on normal for that reason.

Guys help how do I read japanese

So my storage is literally maxed out with crap with lv1-3 s/r/t atk and status effects. should I npc freeze weapons? I have a bunch of those, but I don't think it's really all that useful
>>
>>8660046
The odds of getting ragna soul + tech 2 on a rare weapon are pretty much 0 without transferring. That's why most of the 2-3 effect units sell for 20-30k+
>>
>>8661229
Freeze is great on Vol Dragon, otherwise it's pretty meh. Might aswell throw them on the AH for like 2k or so rather than NPC them, every little helps.

Can you trade with other players, or is that a paid thing?

I know in some games it is.

A quick question - I noticed thru registration and character creation you pick 3 names. the first is your sega ID which is you login, right? No one ever sees this? The second is my account name, and then finally character name? And if someone wants to be my friend they need my account name?
>>
>>8661924
Yeah, you can add people through their account name. It's also used for shops (auction house) and guild chat. Your account name shows up rather than character in chat log.

I played 50 hours and got to only level 20. Am I doing something wrong here?

>>
>>8662738
You're not doing anything wrong. It's just that this isn't WoW. You won't max your character's level in an hour.
And no, no word of release, but if you look at the options to buy Arks Cash, you'll see that it has July 31st as when you can do anything. I have a feeling that's the current target for full launch.
>>
>>8662841
That's when they replace the scratchcards/gacha with new ones, not when you can buy AC.

Are you actually able to purchace AC at the moment? I couldn't get past the captcha but at the same time people are saying buying AC isn't even in until release.

>>
>>8667841
its mainly due to the temporary level cap, once the levels are able to be obtained, normal builds will be fine
>>
>>8667841
It's just because of the level cap, these are designed for level 40 (and maybe level 200 MAGs?). The Hard mode bosses are level 35 and level cap currently is level 30, so their loot is better than we can equip.
>>
>>8667964

Really? That's different. Are they planning to increase the cap as the game goes on?

Hey guys, I pretty much figured out everything through trial and error now, but there are two things that are bugging me that I need answered:

What does armor accessories actually increase?
I'm a ranger with 3 range accessories that give me ~130 of a ranged stat. According to the MAG sheet, it's ranged attack, but the accessory doesn't seem to raise my ranged attack (pic related). Am I wrong for getting ranged accessories, or should I get mage/melee accessories like I see other rangers doing?


What does the Ragne soul and the Rappy soul actually do? Copied from pastebin:

ラグネ・ソール Ragne Soul
I 法撃力+30 HP+20 +20 HP, +30 "impulsive force law"???

ラッピー・ソール Rappie Soul
I 技量+30 PP+3 +3 PP, +30 Skill

I don't understand what Impluse Force Law and Skill do.
>>
>>8668138
Yes that's what a lot of F2P Instance games do.

Can anyone tell me what these items are?
>>
>>8668359

Those are MAG boost items. From some experimentation, it seems to raise your MAG's feeding limit and give it buff skills depending on the boost item. I don't know any moon so I can't say for sure.

level cap of 200 is planned at the moment, obviously there are plans to include new abilities to the skill tree since you only need like 180-ish points to max your entire tree.

法撃力 = Force.

>>
>>8669330
Ship 2 is filled with normal fags so you're bound to see emotes like :P and XD.

Ship 4 is /vg/. Nothing really special, most people on Ship 4 are generally faster than those on Ship 2 in the lower levels. You'll spend a lot of time idling on Ship 2 during the lower levels while your party leader dicks around in the lobby for 15 minutes .


Both have their fair share of retards if these threads are any testament to it.

Ship 2 has a higher population so once you make it out of the scrub brackets you'll find a party with no problem.
>>
>>8669346
I take it you want more than just the words? Because those are in this thread already:
>>8650072
>>
>>8668952
With ranger accessories you should just buy whatever is best for defence and then transfer ranged attack III onto it.

ミューテーション (10 all stats) + ranged attack if you're extra ballsy.
>>
>>8669494
Thanks I think I'll roll on both. I heard its only 1 character per ship but I'll just make a second account and try out both for a while.
>>
>>8669450
>3 groups with 1.

Sometimes I really wonder why people do that. Guess they just like running missions alone.
>>
>>8669330
Population. Both are filled with complete retards who do nothing but dance in the lobby because they can't figure out how to do anything else with the Japanese interface. The only real difference is that half of ship 4's population has already quit the game (it's been more than a whole week, after all), and ship 2's English speakers take up three blocks from what I hear.
It makes no difference to me because I speak moon, and I know the English speaking population on any ship is going to vanish the instant Sega drops the slightest hint that PSO2 is getting localized.
>>
>>8669867
It looks like, because hardly any of them understand Japanese, they don't realize that there's a multiparty limit along with a single party limit for any given mission. They don't understand that their 12 parties of one person will fill up the entirety of a single multiparty instance, making it so that nobody can join the rooms with one person in them.
Of course, this is setting aside the asshats who just always do NO NON-FRIENDS, TEAM ONLY, PASSWORD LOCKED DESTINATION mode.
>>
>>8669904
Yeah, 20-23 are all full right now on Ship 2. I avoid the designated English lobbies unless I'm incredibly bored and don't have anyone else I know around to play with and I've met a few cool English people. If you head to 20 though you're greeted by pretty massive faggotry. I'm sure it's the same on any designated English lobby on any Ship though.
>>
>>8669497
That's certainly appreciated, but yeah I'm hoping to understand it a bit more. Some of the special bonuses seem easy enough to guess, but the character types are a total mystery to me.
For example, I'm using leadership, nocturnal, and thorough defense with my hunter, and I figured that meant she'd get ahead of everyone and block stuff, but she seems indistinguishable from any other partner characters outside of this curiously wonderful trait of hers to use star atomizers all the time.
I would be totally up for figuring out the rest on my own through trail and error, but since you can't use your own partner character, my hands are tied.
>>
Whats with the message that scrolls at the top about Krispy Kremes?
>>
>>8670438
What ive figured out is this:

clumsy, sickly, slow starter, thorough defense, healing support will basically make your bot either useless to semi useless
>>
>>8670907
oh and berserker, likes adversity and reckless makes your bot very offensive and suicidal
>>
>>8669867
>>8670056
It's because you get free items if you take an NPC with you an you get S-Rank clears. For example, this is the only way to get Grants and GiGrants

Been trying to get an answer to this for a while but; when adding a new ability and slot to a weapon, is there a chance that the old one will be lost also?
>>
>>8674003
Yes, it is all up to DooDoo's transfer percentage and he's a bastard.
>>
>>8671471
Do you get Grants if you run as ranger with her? I assume you do.
>>
>>8674003
If you're changing the abilities on an item, regardless of whether the skills were already on the item, for higher level abilities there's a chance it'll fail, especially if you're trying to add an additional slot to the item.

If it does fail, as with any ability combination that fails, it won't go onto the item when the combination is complete (you'll lose the ability).

Is it just me or are hunters kind of useless? They do about as much damage as rangers do with launchers, but they have to do it in melee range, and they don't have the utility that rangers have in the form of weak bullet.

I'm so depressed. I bought a new graphics card and monitor so I can play this game on the best settings and even downloaded some programs to brush up on my Japanese while I waited for my packages. I only played for like 2 days and now I don't feel like playing anymore. I still browse these threads though, I'm glad you guys are having fun.

A lot of things.

It's everything I expected but I can't have fun since I don't have any friends who play and have social disorders that prevent me from making new ones. I just feel like there's no point. I played so much PSO when I had my dreamcast so I was waiting forever for this.

Hunters are pure tank + damage and that's literally it. In terms of team utility, they only offer tanking/peeling since every class deals damage anyways. Either way, Hunter is still a very powerful class.
>>
>>8684274
Wow I was just in the same boat as you.

Always aim for the head. If you're too far for any of its attack to reach, it'll burrow and surface around the area in front of it. That's where I usually unload a PA on its head then spam normal attacks.

Never stand right in front of it. It'll try to bite you. The standard roll doesn't cover enough distance to get out of its range
>>
>>8684274
Details yo, class? Weapon? If you're meleeing(except gunslash), go for the tail. If you're range(or have the grenade gunslash PA), attack his weakpoints like a mad cunt. Launchers preferred.

I don't know shit about FOs, so... yeah.

Not all the content is unlocked so just hang tight.

Close up explosion skill is great for quick knockdowns and requires no aiming, only depth perception
Clust shot (i don't know the names for these, I only know what the look like) is great for hitting the weak spot of enemies with no aiming, since the damage is aerial
That one rapid multi-burst shot is great for rescuing people and destroying objects since it hits so often
Rodeo is great for escaping traps, mobility, and plowing through multiple enemies while dealing good damage.

Unlock the forest area and you'll get a quest from Echo (get a rod from a Rockbear). Finish it to get her card.

Finish the three weapon-based quests Maloo, Ouza, and Lisa give you to get their cards.

Finish one of Jean's many quests to get his card (around level 7, maybe earlier, it's been a while).

There are probably more I don't remember right now.

What are you guys tactics for jewing on the AH? I play with my jap friends on another ship so don't mind giving away some secretz

People often sell 2slot or even 3slot units with high atk/rangeatk/force for less than 10k, these can easily be sold for upwards of 50k++ each depending on what else is on the item.
There are some disks that are more sought after than others, the burst fire for assuult rifle is one. Not sure if its because its a little rarer or just because its one of the best for AR, but sometimes you can still find lv 5+ versions of it for under 5k, when people readily buy them 20k++

>>
>>8694541
No, grinders are the jew market if you have enough cash.

You can probably make 400-800m per grinder if you wait (timezones), or a lot less per grinder but a lot safer money if you go high turnover.

You hit the jackpot if someone decides to sell all their lot without checking the market price first.

Full stacks at 1050 aren't all that uncommon.
>>
>>8694728
no, what hes trying to do is buy the lot of them out, im saying that aint worth it

>>8694541
Actually, I just counted and I think I can buy out all the ones below 4.4k with my 3mil, but I'd have to spend a big portion of my money and I'm not sure if it's such a wise move to make. But on the other hand, after 4.4k it jumps to like 5k in for 200 and then to 7k, so I'd make quite a bit of money if it actually works. But I'm worried that there might be people that have a lot in their inventories and might crash my jew party by flooding the market with their grinders

Japan time saw the market flooded and prices drop 400m in the space of about 30 minutes. I unfortunately spent up just before it hit so couldn't get any bargains.

Prices had rebounded some 200-300m 10 hours later. They are up a further 600m at present.

What exactly tumor does, aside from atk/hp/exp?
I noticed that there are three stages of it, bulb, a fern and palm-like thing, and N+1 tumor monster might pop up after you beat N tumor.
>>
>>8696632
Because spawning triggers are retarded. If you wont move anywhere in a "calm" place, you wont get monsters at all.
>>
>>8696693
It's PSO2's version of rare spawns.
The tumor itself gives another lock-on spot which is always weak against Light/Holy attacks too if I recall.
They also give a bit more exp and probably have better drop rates.
Probably.

Jump attack combo, dash-cancel, land, dash, jump cancel, dash, land, dash, repeat to get out of the lava and avoid lava damage.

You can do a similar thing as a force since landing from and air dodge cancels the recovery which lets you immediately jump and air dodge again.

I'm not sure if Rangers can cheese out nigh-infinite invincibility frames the same way or not.

why
>>
>>8697223
Or rather
Dash, jump to cancel dash recovery (the lower your jump the better for this purpose), air dash, landing from an air dash cancels dash recovery, dash, repeat.
You move faster this way than running as well if you're in a hurry.

For Forces it's easier.
Jump, air dodge, land, jump, air dodge, repeat.
You want a mid-height jump for Forces, too low and you cancel your dodge by landing too early. Too high and you're stuck in falling animation from the air dodge for too long.

You can basically go across entire fields of lava without ever taking damage.
Or just use this method to avoid taking damage from monsters in general.

It makes playing Hunter (or a reckless Force using melee range techs) a heck of a lot more fun.

In alpha2 there was no story or quests, so I guess those missions were just jumbled together, just like in preobt you got to run lilipa on level 1.

you stop crawling when you let go and take the shot

if you're in TPS view, only your horizontal aiming speed is lowered

if you're in lock-on view, just hold it until your character is lined up with the target

Discs seem to have lower magic attack than rods though, so I switch

yep, thats exactly why the skill is terrible.
>>
>>8702551
just deal with it or throw down like $5 for extra mags when the game gets legit released
>>
>>8702621
honestly I dont notice too much of an impact from difference on stat numbers.
Partisan and suspender knives have 150 attack while sword is maybe 250, and you get to do about the same amount of damage per hit anyway.
>>
>>8702621
cards only do marginally less because ranged attacks are balanced to have less on the weapon then melee; you get more overall via either a)better attack animation or b)better spell placement

Just keep maxing Ranged Attack. Too many of my ranger friends can't use the highest tier Rifles/Launchers because they fucked themselves on mag leveling.

I ended up with a PP restoring mag, because I got one level wrong. Guess I'll have to buy another one in release, this one is not even worthy of summoning.

What level is it? Mag will change forms every 5 levels if you raise a stat higher than your current one. All hope is not lost.

Anyone know what element Maloo's spells are?

Only have the first one, can't remember what people call it but its categorized under the same as the heal. So what element improves it if it has any element at all and how do you get higher level on it, don't seem to get disc skill drops for it.
Was wondering the same for the other aoe "ice'ish" spell she has, don't have it yet but it seems to melt faces whenever she is in my party.
>>
>>8705343
>Use him to put stuff on AH
Please explain how you would go about this.
>>
>>8706065
Should be Light.
She presents them to you if you talk to her after raising the relationship several times.
Beside, they also drop in lilipa and on hard mode.
>>
So does this mean if you arent premium, Meseta is essentially worthless?
>>
>>8706131
Only one person needs premium to trade.
>>
>>8706260
You can still buy from player shops. You just can't sell in them.
>>
>>8706135
Light would make sense I suppose, it doesn't have a tree tho as far as my moonrune expertise goes, as well as the skill simulator.

So maybe she has some spells standby then, was running with her as a hunter before, the face on the side of her card has changed 3 times since yesterday.
If they only drop in hardmodes that would explain why I don't get any, my force is only lv.13, but I don't even see any on the ah, either they are really rare, expensive beyond reason or simply too awesome to sell?
>>
>>8705840

Have done that, I most likley have then I've just not switched to force to check.
Seen a friend run with I suppose Grants and Gi Grants leveling entire fields of monsters in seconds, I barely get to hit anything as a hunter.
So I figured as I level force in my spare time I should focus on improving those two spells, I just don't want to go the wrong way in the skill tree.
I know I should go for Charge PP Revival, but from there I need to find the way to maximize the damage output on those spells.
>>
>>8706782
It makes sense in a remotely big group of people. While being alone you wouldn't normally get PSE burst at all. Once I got it instantly after entering the area, just because multiparty somewhere else grinded enough photons.

Don't bother. Grants takes too long to charge, it's better to use Ra Foe. GiGrants is awesome and should be used if mobs are close together.
>>
>>8706291
Unless it's missing from the beta, there is no trade, merely open market transfer.

That 9 star off-class weapon with godly modifiers that you just got is vendor fodder unless you've got premium.

AC tier list

Top tier:
More Mags
Premium
Inventory space
More skill trees

Low Tier: Everything else
>>
Should be free tier:
Trading/Market.
2nd MAG.
1 time use class skill tree reset per class (or give the option of a reset costing 10,000,000m).

Can be charged for:
Everything else they're planning to.

Undecided whether a 3rd MAG should also be free.
>>
>>8708228
Honestly, given that you can potentially lock yourself out of top-tier equipment permanently based on your MAG's build (Hope you didn't go for ability), MAG resets or rebuilds of some kind should be free.

Not free in-game, mind you, but free of real-world charge.

Just refeeding them into shape would be alright. You can drop progress in stats now, but they never delevel.
But then again, it will almost erase necessity of extra mags.

>>8708409
but its japanese company, so you will only get a gacha refresh, and new quests will leave to even harder inventory clogging, thusmore reasons to spend money.

From the gist of it the game takes place in Space with the Star-fleet "Oracle". The Starfleet purpose along with ARKS (which stands for Artificial Relics to Keep Species), a space and planetary exploration group, is to explore the universe, seeking new planets to study and explore for the sake of the unknown. They jump from galaxy to galaxy using Ships with not only with ARKS members but with non-ARKS members who are along for the ride to live in space.

There is going to be a story which will be released in a monthly basis it appears. When the official service commences, chapters 1-4 will be up. Each chapter will feature a different field in the game. Chapter 1 will be the forest, chapter 2 will be the caves, chapter 3 will be the desert, and chapter 4 will feature the tundra.

So they do have a story, but you'll be too distracted leveling up and fighting bosses to do so.

it's caused by groups who didn't get enough for a full cross burst during the last PSE burst but still cranked their PSE levels high due to the spawn rate increase; typically it's because they juuuuuuuuuust missed getting cross burst before it ended and had to wait to find find some new waves to farm up and finish it since they wasted time gathering loot

Every boss has a couple of status effects that work, these are what I got so far:
Rockbear: Burn (crappy damage)
Caterdran: Poison (amazing damage), Freeze (breaks when hit a couple times, pretty worthless)
Vol Dragon: Freeze (OP as fuck)
Guwanda: Burn (crap), Panic (excellent in party, useless solo)
Dark Ragne: Fuck all

pretty sure they nerfed poison damage to reasonable numbers.
It was murdering those horned monsters with force field really hard in alpha. But they also were ignoring most of the other damage, until you break both side horns. Now you can just punch it to death.

>>8717834
Hey, at least its possible to actually +10 , and you wont lose your item on +4 attempt or something, like its usually happening in other games.

Right. On Hard mode it does 1690 or something to Caterdran, which is decent, but otherwise it's worthless on the other bosses. We're getting 3(?) new bosses in a couple days though it seems, so might aswell wait and see if those are vulnerable to it.

Nevermind, just read the update info and it looks like we might not be getting the mines map yet. So 1 or 2 new bosses.

don't spray him all over, focus the tail until it shatters then shove rockets in his face while he's trying to recover. hitting anywhere else is a waste of time, especially once he dives into the ground and gets his extra armor on.

>>
>>8718401
His tail flails about. It's easier to just hit his weak head straight up.

Once he's gone into armour mode then starting to concentrate on the tail is fine, but spraying the face is fine too.

Can always just wait for him to do his fireball to come out of armour form.

speaking of which, how to increase drop amount from him? You can break stuff on vol or ragne, but what to do with guwanda?
>>
>>8717970
if a weapon has more *s you'll have a harder time upgrading it. Save up the special upgrade boosts you get from FUN Scratch and blow them all on your next big weapon upgrade.

As for me, I'm sticking with 2* weapons. They're less of a hassle, and I just solo'd HM Vol with partisan!
>>
>>8718790
I doubt anyone can say for certain how drops work right now. But it seems to factor in how much you contributed to the boss and your ranking. In those multi-boss fights I can split up and fight 1 boss whilst a friend fights another and we each get full drops off our own and only 4 off the others.

Couple quick questions I didn't see anything about in the FAQS and on Bumped (Given I didn't search too hard on that one)

When I'm equipping photon arts through the weapon equip screen, on my forcer, I often get prompts to unlock new skills or level skills up, am I using any sort of skill points to do that? Or is it just there for show and so you know you're leveling shit up?

I played a lot of Blue Burst but that was years ago and I played a ranger back then, so I'm not sure what I'm doing when I get new skills.

there is no downside to equipping as many PAs as possible, it's just there to show the difference between your current level and the one you're using.

it's the skill tree that's permanent (until you throw down ~$13 USD on a reset pass when cash shops open)

Nah, low level stuff is exceptionally easy to upgrade. Once you get one of the top end 9* weapons you'll see what people mean. 3 Grinders per attempt, can go down 3 levels, has very low success rate even at shit like +2 or +3.

Almost at level cap, my currect Force build.

After getting PP Revival I went straight for Photon Flare, figuring it and Freeze Ignition would be worth it. I then realized both fucking suck unless fully upgraded.

Now I wish I just filled up my Advanced Charged Tech.

What do you guys think? Should I spend my last 5 skill points cutting my losses and just putting them into Advance Tech Charge, or would it be worth it to bring Photon Flare to level 6?

Might actually spend money to respec when the game comes out soon.

>Name some good players you've played with on ship 4/2
Stop right there criminal scum!
That leeetist bullshit ends right the fuck now.
Before I continue, know that I am one who has made these leet lists before.
You elevate people who are good to such high levels they start thinking they are better than everyone else, even if they are just a little above average.
Pretty soon, you start to see major segregation, these players choosing to only play with each other.
They are good, and get even better stuff, further separating them.
Pretty soon all that really separates them from other skilled players is their gear, and people just suck their dicks even more as they endlessly circl-jerk around with their "leet" friends.
There was a guy in this game everyone thought was hot shit. he pwned me at every turn. As soon as the playing field was even with gear and level, I destroyed him because he had no real idea how to PVP.
So stop elevating people to god status. It does no good at all.

>>8726212
If you're going to spec for just guard and warcry, go sword.

You can't guard cancel skills in Partisan.
Also, either take fury stance to 10 or don't get it at all.

The base attack increase you get is very small, and you lose 250% defense at level 1. At level 1, it's +50% attack, -250% def. At level 10, it's +150% attack, -200% def.
>>
>>8726212
Drop War Cry, it's useless. As a Hunter you'll keep hate on the mob over Ranger/Force no problem. Only time I ever see it being an issue is if you're partying with other Hunters doing more damage than you. In which case War Cry won't help you either. Just Guard is pretty useless with Partisan (can't guard cancel a lot of stuff, if you can you dodge cancel way earlier so you'll be relying on that). Fury Stance is pretty crap unless you max it, I'd save your points there and put points in S-ATK Up or something so you can equip weapons earlier.

Basically semi-passive boosts to Photon Arts. You have a little meter that fills at the bottom of the screen that powers up your Photon Arts. All 3 weapons have different boosts and different ways to fill the meter:
Wire Lance: Fills by smacking stuff, increases damage of PAs (uses 1 meter per PA)
Partisan: Fills by guarding or spinning your spear after an attack (stopping mid combo), increases range of PAs (uses 1 meter per PA)
Sword: Fills by smacking stuff, increases range, charge speed or number of hit on PAs, doesn't use meter but your meter drains over the time, easy to keep full if you play aggressively

Gear skills aren't make or break for anything but Sword. For Partisan it's merely a range increase (no damage up), Wire Lance is a respectable damage boost but not a necessity either. Gunlance is fine to use if you like using it, the only real issue is some of the best PAs (Thrillsplosion and Charge Shot) use R.Atk, but you can still do good damage with em.

I use them when bored or forced to visit a low level area, their skills are pretty neat-looking.

I fucking love Sword, just like in PSO1.

Even if another weapon might be more effective there is just something so satisfying about taking a huge-ass swing and hitting 5 targets at once.
>>
>>8734140
Gunslashes are the difference between a really effective Force and just an average Force.

In gun mode, jumping and shooting (shooting in the air skips the reload animation) 6~7 times fills your PP from 0 to 100 in like, 2 seconds. It's the fastest way to recover PP for a Force.
>>
Is it possible to have a good Force without Charge PP Revival?

Not even if you go full Bolt PP Save?
>>
>>8734535
Fun fact, S-charge FOs benefit the least from Revival since PP doesn't regenerate whatsoever while casting.
>>
>>8734535
You don't need Charge PP Revival to be an effective Force, but it helps a whole lot. That's true for all skills, but Charge PP Revival is just really good.
>>
What do? I want to specialize in ice but I know it's probably the worst of the three trees.

I asked earlier whether I should max tech damage (The first one) or start specializing right now, still don't know. Only got an answer about getting some skill before I do anything, and I think that was a fire only skill.

What happens when I fail combining abilities? Do both items lose their abilities?
>>
>>8744315
To do that, hit enter (to open up chat), then click on the bottom picture of a guy with his arm raised. That'll open up a pulldown menu you can choose all the actions from.

For example, to bow (normally ALT-B), type "/la bow". /la means Lobby Action, I guess. All the actions work like this. It's also the only way to see the extra actions, since they have no keyboard shortcuts; those get a separate pulldown menu if you use them.

>>8744743
You lose the weapon you were taking the ability from (not the weapon you were trying to add the ability to) AND all abilities on the target weapon.

In your screenshot you have a 70% chance of ending up with a zero-ability target weapon.

Even if they are, stun is still a worthless status effect unless they make enemies actually stay stunned through a few attacks. When do you honestly ever need any form of crowd control in this?

The ones who play too much are already at level cap and are just idling/feeding their mag.

The ones that play casually are just taking their time and idling to feed their mag, the one thing they can't "power level" through a weekend if they feel like it.

It doesn't help that I rarely see people talk about making parties. People just kind of assume others will join for the most part it seems.

Me personally, I'm playing with 3 others so I just idle until they're around to play with.

If you mean a month from announcement, could be possible. If you mean a month from release, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! PSP2 had been out in Japan for almost a year before it was even announced for US release. This is far more indicative of how long it would take just for the announcement. Factor in time for closed and open betas in the US, and even if the game was announced for US release tomorrow, it would be next Christmas before the game is in open beta.

Since I was pretty much forced to solo everything because nobody joins rooms or only runs within their incredibly small group and friend/team/password locks their room even to other parties, my highest class was force at 27, and I just barely managed to get there half an hour before the server went down. I probably could have easily maxed force and gotten the other classes to 15ish, but the only people I know who play this game play on ship 2, and you couldn't fucking pay me to go onto yet another ship of people that are going to vanish the instant Sega even hints at a US release.

All SEGA has to do in NA is release PSO2 with an English translation and probably allow MyShop without premium and it would be perfect. The NA market isn't ready for restricted shop access.

So how much is the room going to cost now?

15 a month, roughly

room only? ~$9usd a month.

more if you want shop n other stuff

That's the whole Premium set. Just getting the room alone is cheaper.

I'll also note that it if gets localized it will be cheaper, 15 per month in Japan is a similar standard to 10 per month over here.

When the game goes up.

>1:Set up your god damn bot.
It literally takes two seconds, you get FUN points for people using your BOT, and spares everyone from having to use the starter gear shitty NPCs when in need of fillers.
>2: Friend people
Its not that fucking hard, press "T" to go into mouse mode, click on a person that's speaking english 3rd option from the bottom.
>2a: Accept friend requests
Click the はい when the window pups up.
>3: Set up your fucking autowords

All you need to know, make that shit entertaining pretend you're designing an actual NPC (because you are) or just be a lazy fuck and copy lines from your favorite movies, games, animus, mangos, and such and so.


If you can remember these simple three and a half steps, shit should be a whole fucking lot more entertaining.

I was trying all day for an S-rank under 16 mintues cave mission but nobody joined except for one person near the end of the day, we tried with a couple NPCs and shit failed, we did another run but I used friend's bots to fill in the gaps and we beat the Vibe dragon with two minutes to spare even though each map up to the boss had a Code Duel and a Code Eliminate.

Never played a PS before, only saw some gameplay and never found it particularly engaging, but this iteration is awesome.

And since I'm from a country that tends to be blocked on US/European servers anyway, I'll keep playing JP in any case.
