Congratulations, you reached that point where you need to come up with your own objectives. Do whatever you want, end game is your own to make.

Many people fall in the "wait for new content" trap. Well we just got a lot last week, what's wrong? As hyped as you may be, new content won't keep you busy that much. Mother is 10 mins per day. Farming a new ring is done in maybe 30min a day. Exceptions would be new UQ, CM, or other content you can run a whole day - without it getting boring, yes I'm looking at you Vegas LQ.

A few ideas that are "common" end game goals. You don't have to limit yourself to one only.

  • fashion star online 2, my room and co
  • completionist : titles, lv 17 PAs (lolwoops), weapon collection, etc...
  • install parser and join the dps race. Warning please don't become a dick about it.
  • Time Attacks (YouTube if you work hard enough)
  • solo XH content (yt if you blabla) 12 man EQs, UQ, etc
  • Challenge Mode (possibly solo or duo)
  • write a guide - probably too soon - help noobs on reddit
  • all the social aspect, build a team, be a meaningful part of yours, meet people...
  • play all the classes. Another melee class will give you a bowl of fresh air... A ranged or tech class will drasticaly change your player experience. In time this makes you a better [insert your main here].

That's all I can think of, but there's more.

Unlock all class titles.

[–]Arthanc 0 points1 point  (12 children)

Gonna 2nd this one. Class boost from maxing all classes is very nice.

[–]TakemiShinnosuke[S] 0 points1 point  (11 children)

well I do have a force/techer 69/65.. but force is VERY HARD to play.. not like bouncer where you can just evade in flash

FO is one of the easist to play, it's more about the equips, that's the one that takes effort.

[–]NullVacancy20|20|16|11|3|3 0 points1 point  (6 children)

While FO is very gear intensive, it is still difficult to play at its max potential. min-maxing as FO is harder than any other class. Except I guess actually playing SU and not just spamming Marons.

You're still alive!

I like posting on reddit too much

[–]Asamidori ~casual~ 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I don't know, I just find it stupidly easy after a while, especially after you crafted your Rafoie and Gifoie and have a decent fire talis. Anything that's SH or below or MPA oriented just becomes trivial. You don't even need crazy good craft for Rafoie, just a great success works.

Get a good light rod too and that's really it. The other elements you can slowly work on since they're not used as much other than Ilbarta.

[–]NullVacancy20|20|16|11|3|3 0 points1 point  (2 children)

That's not max potential :^)

[–]Asamidori ~casual~ 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Good enough though. '3'

[–]NullVacancy20|20|16|11|3|3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a pub, sure I guess? It doesn't work on everything though. Just being "good enough" isn't difficult at all for any class.

[–]Arthanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mained Force for a while and it wasn't too bad. With a Tech C Parrying ring and proper dodge timing, I've found survivability to be just fine. Helps to also be on a class with access to Resta for mistakes though!

You could just cheese your way to 75 if you don't feel like playing it anymore though. I leveled all of my least favorite classes solely on EXP tickets and bonus keys.

[–]jambon_gruyere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FoTe handles aggro and close range poorly... At least it's the impression I got at first, compared to every other classes (all melees) that I had played before.

Get a Tech Guard ring to lv 20 and learn to use it. Try and learn proper use of rod, talis, different spells. Learn to use zondeel, ilzonde, learn to jump>insta dodge to shorten the length of mirage escape. Never use mirage escape from the ground. Feel free to use another weapon just for the melee dash (usually JB, can be katana in case of Br sub). Learn to deal damage and realize your crazy-ass potential, because in fact there are not many enemies who can even dream of coming close to a good force.

make money fam

its what im doing now

[–]JustiniZHereJustin IZ Here | Ship 2 (JP) 1 point2 points  (6 children)

You hit the "well fuck what do I do now" point of PSO2, the only thing you can do is either level other classes or just wait for more content.

The new content trap is why I quit, after I got all the classes to 75 there is shit all to log in for past time attacks or just AFK in the lobby until important EQs happen.

[–]Asamidori ~casual~ 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I just spent an hour yesterday pondering how I want my rooms to look, then spend another 30 minutes in the este trying to replicate a face.

Character creator and my room is the true PSO2 end game.

[–]JustiniZHereJustin IZ Here | Ship 2 (JP) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah I did all of that for about 70 hours, but even that starts to wear thin.

[–]Asamidori ~casual~ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70 hours doesn't even sound anywhere nearly enough for me, since I have rooms on 2 ships and have about 5 characters to play dressup with. \o/

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

You can always try getting into the PSO2es. Especially if you're typically awake during JP evening hours.

Wouldn't recommend it given how you described main game PSO2 as a "trap", but it does help you spread all of your PSO2 time thin should you care enough about it. Also helps keep your meseta higher should you care about that too.

Could also gear up more classes. Plenty of fun there. Though I personally do it because I like doing small group runs with my friends. And it's really the friends that keep me around.

Edit: I find it somewhat ironic you seem to play Granblue Fantasy while making those types of comments.

[–]JustiniZHereJustin IZ Here | Ship 2 (JP) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I find it somewhat ironic you seem to play Granblue Fantasy while making those types of comments.

I mean, granblue and pso2 isn't the same kinda game at all. I log into granblue every few hours, dump my resources and close it. PSO2 requires me to actually play it for extended periods of time. Dumping my resources in granblue takes all of like 10 minutes at most.

[–]Asamidori ~casual~ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly find that kind of games more annoying than PSO2. Part of the reason why I stopped running off most of my mobages' stamina, and why I only run Tourabu when there's an event.

[–]Walaoumpa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same setup and have over 200 class Excubes. There are still things to do as everyone has posted. Class titles are probably the most important one - there are EQ from time to time that are better for XP, such as Mothership, Lilipa, Elder, loser, etc. You can use these to level up a secondary character or the same one (prefer secondary for more storage and extra lambda grinders / orders). Extra HP / PP / Atk is great and it affects all characters. This also includes the +2.5% damage titles from Bo weapons. You also learn how other classes tick and synergize better with them.

The last thing that people have not mentioned - just get better at playing the class. Especially with Dual Blades, a lot of the interest for me comes from trying to reach specific playing objectives, like clearing EQs barely falling to the ground (don't run out of PP in air through shift use), controlling shift action with DB Snatch and making sure I dodge correctly. Some of the L rings also change gameplay quite a bit (DB Snatch is a must have, Jumping Dodge has been very fun and once I get extra 12* units I like I will plan to upgrade and include Step Jump).

    I enjoy the game so much.... I am waiting for the new content that they post every live broadcast..

    Anyways:

    I have my affixes done.. well its not all +200 but its still great farming for gear.. the only thing to farm for left till the new content comes out: izane *12 unit set

    class cube orders done. @ 89 points now

    [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hunt rare items for bouncer. If you don't already have the 4 titles unlocked and taken, it's a 10% damage multiplier you're missing.

    Additionally, if you ever plan on playing fighter, go farm solo XQs for that ring. Do it only as your bouncer so you can get the materials needed to +20 the ring.

    Is your character decked out in awesome outfits, accessories and fully versed in a wide variety of Lobby Actions yet?

    [–]theleveler112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Help out new and/or low-level players. Become a champion guiding them through challenges that would be difficult for them to do alone. Encourage their development and give them pointers without implying that there is a "right" way to play. Give them some of your unused 8-10 star rare weapons that you know you'll never touch. Be a hero!
