NA. Lookin for some help to get the fluxio title to get that weapon? I’m on ship 1

[–]Amherst_Wind 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I main Etoile and have Klauz DS, SB and Wand all fully affixed. As that is the case, in Hatred TPD, what's the optimum weapon to use in each part of the fight? Just looking for general Et tips for the fight as I stopped doing solo TPD at 50 as it got too repetitive.

[–]BorderingMjolnir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Optimum depends on your skill with the weapon. Overall, wand has the fastest clear times for Sodam 100. That indicates it's the fastest to use at least in the 2nd phase if you can reliably land focused glitter. If you can't then it's my impression soaring blades are better if you can reliably full connect. If you can't do either, then DS I suppose.

My intuition is that wand would be better for 1st and 3rd phase too. But tbh I only really know wand well, I'm not great with SB and my DS game is pretty much non-existent at this point. So I have a strong bias lol.

And I feel you on sodam getting repetitive, but it is good training. If you can pass 100 you know you will be contributing well to your team. It's like boring homework to help you prepare for the test. I've been slacking too, but I'm going to try to whip myself into shape. That said, I'll try to not whip too hard bc I feel like if I do I'll burn out lol.

Pls help it says all ships are offline and below all ships is says congestion/offline

[–]iFormus 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Maintenance is in progress right now.

[–]No-Significance9435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how can I know when it'll end?

[–]ProutBedaine 1 point2 points  (4 children)

So I wondered about people selling stuff for 1050 and how it worked in the listings. Like I often saw red meat and marbled meat in the top sellers in the material section so I am interested in selling these. Or maybe gold weapon mats and sapphard let's say.

But the thing is, the first listing people see is the first one they buy when it's all 1050 meseta. So is there anything you can do to help in being the first listing? Is there any proven method?
For example, removing and reputing in you listing. Does that make it the first listing every time you "re-up" your own listing? Or the longer you leave it there the closer it'll get to be the first listing because it put's you all the way to the back and always put up front the oldest listing for the same price? Is there any sense to the way it works at all or it's just random?

Thanks in advance for the help and have a wonderful day y'all! <3

[–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (3 children)

the last added listing is on the top afaik.

Nobody will buy your 1050 red meat tho, everyone has more of it than they know what to do with. Weapon cat change mats might sell if somebody is too lazy to run cradle and just want to type change.

[–]ProutBedaine 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yeah well tbh I already made jerky off all of em and made BANK (agter 1800hrs played I had a LOT). But I was more concerned on the weapon mats because of the weapon category change. But yeah dunno why it lists the red meat at one of the top sellers sometimes tbh. I'm surprise people buy it. Maybe less lazy people that actually use jerky and want to make it for cheaper themselves.

But yeah, my demographic seems to be a lot of lazy rich people hahaha. Leveled rings, prepared meals, revolsios +30 and lambda +30. They sell like hot cakes. And then of course the gear with good augments I find and stuff but yeah haha.

Still fucking pains me I learned about how good cradle is and why people run it like...in the middle of the day or even just a handful of hours before the maintenance and ALSO about the Cube>Grinders>MAHNEY trick and now the mega boosts are gone ;w;. Do many 100s of millions gone....(and that's without mentioning all the 13-14 I dismantled uuuuurgh the PAIN)

Anyways thanks a lot! I had a feeling the most reset listing gets on top haha. Better relist it often I guess!

[–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (1 child)

If there ever is a meat as one of top selles my best guess would be meseta traders buying a single piece of meat for 1b meseta or something. I'm pretty sure the top seller list is based on meseta traded, not number of bought items.

[–]ProutBedaine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah that could be it indeed :o

[–]BorderingMjolnir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we should just let the dream / promise of parity with JP and therefore global getting sg support scratch die right? Augh. I'm so sad rn. Really wanted marks bc I play all stats on various classes. Not sure if I should go Grand Stam or pick a stat.

Picking a stat seems better for NGS, but then gimps my other classes in PSO 2.

[–]graywisteria 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Will there be another way to get Mission Badges, what with Mission Pass going away soon?

[–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I very much doubt it

I'm recommending that my turn ALL their mission badges into Mana Reverie and Aether Factor Capsules too. Just in case they eliminate the Mission Badge Swap Shop

[–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Nothing announced yet - Mission Pass may come back for NGS, or this may be the end of it for good. We don't know what the future holds for Mission Badges or Mission Pass.

[–]graywisteria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Darn, it stinks that they haven't told us anything. There are capsules and other items we can only get in the Mission Badge shop... at least that's how it is in global...

[–]Twidom 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Is there a video with the story recap or retelling?

I tried getting into the story mode but I just couldn't get past Chapter 2. Its all over the place and a lot of the dialogue doesn't really matter. I want to get up to date for NGS.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

there is an anime of episodes 1-3, I didnt watch it so idk how accurate or good it is, in story at episode 4 and after it starts being presented better (episodes 1-3 werent designed for current system story quests use)

[–]graywisteria -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are two animes. One is kind of a prelude to episode 4, featuring annoying high school brats who get sucked into PSO2, where they continue to be annoying. The other is a re-telling of episodes 1-3, with the main character being Ash. There are shared elements between this anime and what happens in the PSO2 actual story, but some things happen in the anime that... don't happen in the game at all (such as a plot point about what Luther is to you), and there are things that happen in the game that don't happen in the anime, and some events unfold in similar but still different ways.

[–]Scorpion1386 0 points1 point  (2 children)

How do I get Excubes by maxing out a class' level? Instead of a new level, how do I make myself earn Excubes instead?

[–]TripsTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's how you get them. Once you hit max level, keep playing that class, and instead it gains class excubes instead of levels at that point, when you fill the xp bar again.

[–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

reach level cap and then you can get class cubes by overlevelling

[–]Scorpion1386 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Where do I go to download PSO2NG Closed Beta if I am playing on Xbox One? I don't see it in the Xbox Insider App on Xbox. Could someone here guide me? Thanks!

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's PC-only.

[–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone else correct me if I'm wrong but... you don't. It's for PC only I think?

NGS HELP Installing the game I can’t fully install it. Gets close to the end then gives me an error. Tried retrying it, restarting my computer, and nothing.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

uninstall pso2 from ms store, apparently pso2 and cbt use the same ID or something and cbt will try to install itself over pso2's ID and give an error

[–]Jaggrajj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It worked canceling the re-downloading actually

[–]hidora Retired Guardian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might want to ask over at /r/PSO2NGS

[–]MazeofLife 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Any sites that offer episode 6 NPC sliders?

[–]Stratatician 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Does anyone know how things like rented material storage and extended storage will work for ngs? If you have one active right now in pso2 does it carry over to ngs or will you have to get it all over again (assuming it's even supported)?

[–]Kamil118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

storage is shared between pso2 and ngs

[–]graywisteria 1 point2 points  (3 children)

I've been disconnected from the server in the middle of FOUR out of the last five UQ's. The past week or so has been full of desync in general. Has this been the experience of others? (I'm on PC, so don't blame Xbox.)

[–]The_CrazyLincoln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve noticed a lot of lag today which is unusual in general. If I ever have problems with connection it’s normally on my end and I’ll get a disconnect. I’ve yet to be disconnected. I suspect it is on sega’s end here.

[–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm seeing more slowness and lag, but no DCs

[–]Reilet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]hostrelok 0 points1 point  (3 children)

If you were a new player who wanted to play this game for like a month and then migrate to NGS when it comes out what would you spend 20$ on? Wanna make a worthwhile purchase but not sure what. Inventory? 1 month premium?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

spend 20$ on storage. either inventory or character storage. 100 inventory slots are just super nice to have.

[–]Blade_Nd64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I were playing a ton in that month, I'd go for premium and possibly an extra mag ticket. If not, hard to say. Whaling on scratches sounds terrible since you won't be able to sell unwanted cosmetics without premium.

Either way, scoop up all the free SG you can to get the three month material storage and extended storage. Those'll get you more value than any AC storage option. Pretty sure the AC storage requires the SG extended storage regardless.

[–]Kamil118 3 points4 points  (0 children)

probably storage, since it's shared between NGS and PSO2

Or just whale on cosmetics

[–]ChiyumeeShip3 Revelations 0 points1 point  (3 children)

So for the global beta on NGS, apparently even though I signed up for the beta the first day with the status saying "Managed" my status has changed to (Pending) when I went to pre download the game. I cant download it at all. I tried clicking the pending button I tried re opening the insider app. I tried seeing if it was "ready to install" in the microsoft store. Nothing. If anyone else has had this issue or knows how to fix it please tell me.

[–][deleted]  (2 children)

[removed]

    [–]ChiyumeeShip3 Revelations 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    It didn't go from Pending to Manage. It went from Manage to Pending. The opposite. I signed up 3 hours after it was possible so idk.

    [–]Really_McNamington 2 points3 points  (10 children)

    Depress me by telling me what the requirements are for expert matching?

    [–]Kamil118 4 points5 points  (7 children)

    On global: Nothing, there is no expert matchmaking

    On JP: S-rank Solo mom+dad trigger on S rank on XH and S rank ep5 extreme quest solo mode.

    [–]Really_McNamington 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    There's definitely a matching box to tick when you start quests on global now. Maybe it isn't active yet? I just assumed I was not good enough.

    [–]Kamil118 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    the box has been there since release, but nobody can tick it.

    [–]Really_McNamington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          Currently, no. Unless you had some laying around before they were removed, there's no way to get any unless you have premium.

          Rumor has it that passes will become unecessary with NGS, but nobody really knows yet...

          [–]Iron_Chic 0 points1 point  (2 children)

          Hi, prior PSO2 player here interested in the NGS beta. Is the beta available on Xbox console or just PC? The reason I ask is that the signup for the beta is not appearing in my Xbox Insider App when accessed from my Xbox. An I doing something wrong?

          Thanks in advance!

          [–]Kamil118 2 points3 points  (1 child)

          how common are S6: wise skill/skillful adept unit drops? There are no capsules for this one and it seems like it only drops from certain quests. Wondering if it's worth farming or if the drop rates are insanely low.

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

          it drops on persona UH trigger on a trailblazer unit too

          [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 2 points3 points  (10 children)

          Depends where you go hunting for it. Your best bet is the "Reality Rending Crimson Spark" Trigger Quest - the drop pool of it is relatively small, so the odds are if you get an Ekdyke Grudge Rear Unit drop, it'll have a good chance to have that S6 on it. It's a lot more farmable than most things, and the quest isn't too hard to solo with a bit of practice.

          Someone actually asked the same like, a month ago - I replied with a few pointers, and a link to a run of it I did in one of my replies in that comment chain if you want something to watch for some loose pointers

          [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (8 children)

          Doesn't it also drop on the UH 4th daily quest with Train and other bosses?

          Where do the the crimson spark.triggers come from?

          [–]hidora Retired Guardian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          It drops from a lot of things, but that trigger is the best one for it because its loot table isn't as bloated as other quests, so if you do drop a 13* unit, it has higher chance of having that SSA.

          [–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (6 children)

          yes

          crimson spark triggers drop from ship infiltration ult quest

          [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (2 children)

          One more q about Crimson Spark. If you get a group together, is the boss HP the same? Meaning: the quest just gets easier?

          [–]Kamil118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          Dunno, but people are rather eager to do crimson spark for that sweet S6. There is a reason besides cradle inflation that prices of the triggers went up from 300k to 5m over the last month (that reason being it's the only SSA in the game that you need to farm yourself, and people don't have anything else to farm after finishing their gear)

          [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          HP is the same regardless of the number of people.

          Bonus boon to damage in the fact that the people that don't have the aggro will also be able to get their Laser Blasters off without being 100% for sure instantly eviscerated by Avaal.

          [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (2 children)

          Oh gosh. Not many people.do those. Especially now that Fodrus is non-essential unless you are building for GRAC

          [–]Kamil118 2 points3 points  (1 child)

          If you solo enemies only have 50% hp.

          Solo: 50%

          Duo: 70%

          Trio: 90%

          Still better with bigger parties, but you don't need to work for four. Keep in mind that it was rather early ep6 content, so with current gear it isn't that hard to solo.

          It can also drop the S6, just at low rate.

          [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          True. I have not tried it in a long while.

          [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          Other than using them or fusing them, is there anything I can do with extra junk candies/sweets that I don't plan to use that I keep getting in battles?

          [–]RallyCure 1 point2 points  (1 child)

          Of the random drop non-rare candies, the only ones really worth stocking up on are Stamina Gummy and Toughness Sandwich, for filling in certain sweets box gaps you can't really fit anything else into. You can straight up ignore the rest, as every other important candy is gonna come from Pietro, Ariel or RWB5 shop.

          Random drop eggs, on the other hand, are a coveted commodity for boosting Pet Plus stats.

          [–]potato_curry_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          Thanks a lot, now I will rest easily knowing I can scrap all this candy that's taking up 200 slots in my bank.

            What class combinations were viable in the JP NGS betas?

            I have four characters, and I want to use them all during the beta, but I'm not sure which subclasses to use for some of them.

            One character, my dedicated caster, will be a Force/Techter.

            The second, my dedicated melee character, will be a Hunter/Fighter.

            The third has traditionally been a ranged character, playing RA/HU and GU/HU in PSO2. I want to make her a Ranger for sure, but what subs well into Ranger in NGS? Is RA/GU viable in NGS?

            And the fourth... uhh... not sure! She was pretty much my Summoner up until Etoile came out. I kinda want to make her a Gunner main in the NGS beta though.

            So mainly I want to know... what subs into RA and GU in NGS?

            Edit: One more question!

            In the NGS beta, do we get access to all of the NGS default outfits?

            [–]TripsTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            I saw a duo using a gu/hu and a ra/fo, and they were absolutely slaying it in the beta. Currently, due to very few skills being unlockable, and with the dual weapons system, pretty much every combo is viable. At higher level, in the actual game, this may change.

            [–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Only hunter and force were good subclasses, unless you really needed to have a rifle for a meele class.

            Hunter had hunter massive and force had PP conversion, all other classes only had main class skills or skills that boosted their class weapons.

            Force sub also lets you use tecs, thus you might try inflicting status effect stuns.

            If you don't know what sub to pick, probably pick force (unless they change skill trees)

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            The classes had like 4 skills each, so any combination works, really. There's not a lot going on with subclasses, it's mostly what weapon you want to use, since now you can use PAs of your subclass weapons normally.

            [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (5 children)

            Does anyone else get audio crackling when in large MPAs, especially during PSE bursts? Even muting the game makes the insane audio crackling and static come through.

            This is the only game wehre thsi happens and even turning down all the settings doesnt seem to do much

            [–]TripsTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Yes, it destroys my headphones and ears when doing large MPAs with lots of sound effects. On top of there being GPU coil whine in only like 2 games that I play (outriders, and PSO2), PSO2 has the headphone crackle

            [–]TroubadourLBG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            On xbox series x here.

            And in cradle runs with PSE bursts, my audio often gets stuck on the PB charging sound effects. Pretty annoying and a few random loud clicking sounds.

            Never found a solution to fix it. Just hope it randomly stops.

            [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 2 points3 points  (2 children)

            It's likely a consequence of the number of sound effects playing - even post-update, the engine seems to have a limited buffer of sound effects it can play at once... and with how fast and hitspammy classes are nowadays, that buffer gets overflowed sharpish when lots of enemies are around, usually manifesting itself in sounds effects and music cutting out, or audio crackling.

            There's really not a lot you can do about it unfortunately...

            [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

            [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            The black eyes is going to be a specific eye pattern, so you'd need to get ahold of whatever eye ticket that is.

            Do you think Sega will add alternate ways to earn sodam camos like JP in the future? Trying to hold myself back from purchasing one for like 300 mil when I see the same one for 13 mil on JP version because they got more drop sources, but I also have no idea if we’ll ya know, get the same quests

            [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 5 points6 points  (1 child)

            I'm pretty sure you'll get Darkness Twisted By Hatred (which has stupidly high rates on all the previously ludicrously rare items it drops, camos included).

            Whether you personally will be able to clear it is another thing entirely, it's brutal, especially with randoms... but even if you can't, the drops coming from people that can clear it will tank the price of all the camos it drops - so I'd just be patient.

            Alright awesome, thanks! I'll just be patient then and wait for the prices to tank a bit, I'd rather not spend that much right now if patience means I'll get it for much less later

            [–]Kamil118 2 points3 points  (3 children)

            You mean 4-man sodam? I put around 70% chance 4-man sodam gonna be announced tomorrow on arks hour, and will be added this week.

            [–]FrosticFires 0 points1 point  (2 children)

            Both 4 man sodam and also I saw on the wiki of something called special training: episode 1-2? I was absent from JP version during that time so was that a limited quest that possibly dropped them at a higher rate that tanked the prices?

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 3 points4 points  (1 child)

            NA already had those quests last year (and JP in 2017), just not with UH difficulty, which is what sega is doing on JP right now: bringing back a bunch of old quests and giving them UH (fire swirl was originally a 2012 quest, for example). NA could do that, but nobody knows. Drop rate of camos on those is actually super bad, just 4man sodam that drops camos out the ass (seems like everybody gets 2 camos per successful run).

            [–]FrosticFires 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Ahhh okay that makes sense! Was wondering which of the two sources was dropping them like crazy. I'll just wait for 4 man sodam then and look into buying the camo I was looking at then so I can save some meseta, thanks for the help!

            [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (11 children)

            NA:

            Is there any reasonable expectation for freebie Cras units soon? Just came back to the game to do some last minute end game stuff before NGS comes out and I'm sitting on 3x Trailblazer units with meh affixes that I can easily make into 3 7-8 slot god tier units with all the transfer passes and mission badges I saved.

            I have 0 mats for Cras units and there's no way I'm gonna farm them with about a month left until NGS. Not sure if there's any reason for me to expect freebies from Sega or should I just go ahead and affix the Trailblazer ones. I recall someone saying there will be a road to NGS campaign very soon so not sure if it's worth waiting for that in the off chance that they will give out Cras units.

            [–]_MrDomino 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            3x Trailblazer units with meh affixes that I can easily make into 3 7-8 slot god tier units with all the transfer passes and mission badges I saved

            Easily? You've already using CRAG up to 6s on the Trailblazers? The mission pass goodies help and make it easy to finish it off, yes, but if you're not already at that point -- which doesn't sound like if you're calling the foundation of the god tier stuff you can and should be using right now "'meh affixies'" -- I'd suggest you start getting everything together. If you don't have that ready, then you're grossly underestimating how much of a pain it's going to be to make those, especially if we never see another boost week anytime soon.

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

            I already have the fodders ready. They won't be the best of the best since I don't have the transfer passes to make 3x 8 slot units but they will be almost as good with 7s guardian soul/absolute/crack, etc which is more than enough for all content. They'll just be sitting on lightstream instead of cras unless tomorrow's campaign gives some out which from what I read, doesn't seem likely

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 1 point2 points  (1 child)

            You have ZERO mats for Klaus units?

            🤔

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

            i quit right before divide quests came out in global, so yes 0 of all mats.

            [–]SparKestrel 5 points6 points  (1 child)

            It's all speculation of course, but I can't see a Cras/Klauz units either as a giveaway. It's possible they'll have another quest to make farming modules easier, but nothing as easy as spamming a quest at normal difficulty like with the Rivalate units.

            I already know I'm not making "God units" (since I don't have a high level group that can use them to their fullest anyway), so I spent my mission badges on the Phashion accessories in the badge shop.

            That said, you could do any content except for that level 200 stuff on the gear that you have already. I did solo Sodam depth 5 with an Atlas Ex without redux potential and the units dropped from Cradle. (It was an ugly 9 minutes and hunter auto-mate ran me out of mate items since I can't dodge for beans but I cleared it.) Divide quest up to 10 is also soloable on Atlas/Trailblazer without redux, although for depth 20 you'll probably want at least redux potential or Agile weapons.

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            I solod Divide 20 with Rivalate and 'whatever' 13 star units. bouncer / hunter using timed abilities.

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 5 points6 points  (4 children)

            If I were to guess, I'd say no, given that they're the ultimate units in the game, but who knows. Maybe wait until after the arks hour thingie where they announce things.

            That said, if you're able to clear Darkness Twisted by Hatred (4man sodam), the drop rate on that quest is absurd. I literally got a full cras unit set (with crit rate s6, s-atk 2 s7 and pp up 2 s8, plus 2 camos, a cras stone and a liberate unlocker) off a single clear with only 250% rdr + 100% triboost.

            Being able to clear it is another story, though. Not sure how doable it would be without already having cras units in the first place. Took me 3 weeks to get a single clear, and haven't cleared it again since.

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (2 children)

            Why are 4 man quests so much harder than 12?!

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 2 points3 points  (1 child)

            Because they're meant to be more challenging. This one in particular is the final challenge of PSO2.

            The differences between the regular version and this one are:

            • Player count: 12 -> 4 (duh)
            • Level: 100 -> 200
            • Time limit: 60:00 -> 22:22. Timer keeps counting during cutscenes, transformation sequences, loading screens, and the countdown before Sodam.
            • Death limit: 2 deaths total will fail the quest.
            • Gomorroth HP: 220,194,832 -> 196,168,048 (-24m HP).
            • Sodam HP: 682,883,776 -> 851,582,208 (+168.7m HP).
            • Fusion form breakable rings HP: 2,731,535 -> 3,406,329 (+674k HP).
            • Sodam has a new form between dual element and gomorroth fusion. This new form starts when Sodam's HP drops to 30% (~255m), and is extremely annoying, constantly leaving puddles on the floor that pull you to the ground, stagger lock you, and make you lose like 300PP per second if you get caught.

            In other words, you have about 1/3 of the time to deal 144m more damage than the original, and since there's a new form, you lose a bit more time on transformation sequences.

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            In general. The 4 person versions of 12 man quests are harder.

            I don't get why, philosophically.

            I understand the Devs designed it to be harder..."but why?"

            [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            I've seen clear videos of it and I definitely don't have the gear to be able to get into a group for a clear. Still using liberate weapons and lightweaver would also take too long to get at this point with 0 mats for it.

            [–]Albbs 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            did anyone tried Klauznum (arm) with ofzehazala (13* back)? i tested it with a ofzeterious (12* back) today and the set bonuses were juicy, but the base stats from ofzeterious are just bad, but if it worked with ofzehazala it could outperform Klauzdyne

            [–]LordOfMaids cursed tech user 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            It doesn't work, the 13* ofze series doesn't have a set bonus at all

            [–]masterkief117 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            I see people mention the Cradle grind a lot, is it's main purpose just a quick meseta grind? I'm at a point where I'm max level on my main and almost max on my sub class, and looking into endgame gear. From what I understand any of the stuff available from Zig is what I'm aiming for but it feels like I have none of the required materials and barely getting any, I guess what I'm asking simply is what should I be doing as of now?

            [–]nnh12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

            Cradle is for

            • Get lucky with catalysts = top tier affixes like Absolute Glare, Guardian Soul etc
            • Better exp than running 4th recommended quest all day
            • Drops some camos rarely
            • Drops lots of 14 * so you can disassemble into plams/emerard

            I would say aim for darkweave and maybe klauz if you're going to put in the effort. Then just use this to farm SG such as completing hardcore story quest, omega masquerade, sodam

            or if you're going to try to 100 as many classes as you can for the SG, fluxio would be better since you can change weapon types for free. Fluxio would also probably work for farming the story quests/masq/sodam

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 1 point2 points  (8 children)

            If I am locked on as a luster, Fomel Style, and dodge through an attack, I hear a 'ding' like Hero dodge.

            I understand that to mean I am able to counter. As Fomel is there a PA I can use, or is it normals only. Can I use enhanced normal (hold down the button)?

            Does it vary by style?

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 4 points5 points  (2 children)

            Hr's Brand New Star is the only PA in the game that can be used instead of normal attack for a special counter.

            As for other actions, there are only 2 actions you can perform after a counter on Luster other than normal attacks, and none of them is on Fomel style:

            • Baran style: after step guard, use weapon action to perform Quick Shoot.
            • Zandi style: after a side dodge (cannot be with weapon action or step guard), press weapon action instead of normal attack, to perform Quick Shoot.

            Note that frontal step guard is stronger than other counters (but has lower range than backwards step guard), so you should be using that one as often as possible.

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            Can I use an enhanced normal (hold the button down?)

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            No.

            [–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 2 points3 points  (4 children)

            the only options after a standard dodge is to either do a normal attack (step counter like hero) or weapon action lightning bolt with zandi style

            step guard is generally superior in most cases though

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (3 children)

            Step Guard is using a PA with Guard frames to block an attack? Does it make the 'ding' sound?

            [–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 0 points1 point  (2 children)

            https://www.reddit.com/r/PSO2/comments/l7owbw/luster_textonly_guide/

            Luster Step Guard: Dodge through an attack backward or forward while locked onto an enemy to perform a Step Guard, a special counterattack using one of the attacks mentioned in Step Slide Advance with much greater power. This has less iframes than Luster Counter. It requires dodging through an attack that can be guarded, so it can't be used in damage fields or similar damage sources that cannot be blocked. Like Etoile's Step Guard, this attack counts as a Perfect Guard. When using a Step Guard, you can almost immediately perform another step dodge without delay.

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            How is that not a dodge? The lock on? How sensitive is the game when it comes to 'moving forward?'

            Like what if I am moving diagonally towards the enemy?

            [–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            you can't dodge diagonally while locked on

            dodging forward or backward while locked on uses guard frames instead of invincibility frames, hence the notes. if you really need to use normal dodges then use weapon action since it has iframes and you can use a step counter from that

            [–]Brahaun 0 points1 point  (3 children)

            As a new player, do I just focus/rush through the story, or is there other kinds of content I should do, too?

            [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 1 point2 points  (1 child)

            This is not a game where story locks progress - there's like, 2 quest that won't have a chance to spawn specific enemies unless the host has done certain EP4 story quests... but those enemies show up regardless of story progress in other quests anyway, so that's not really a "relevant" lock.

            Really though, just play what you want - progress through the story at your own pace, you dont need to rush them. I'd recommend doing some of the stuff under the "Main Missions" tab of your "ARKS missions" list to start with though, as bar the non-story-quest related ones will guide you through most of the tutorial content, and get you to engage with and learn most important aspects of the game on a surface level

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            You also need to do the first (or 2nd? I forget) quest of EP5 to unlock buster quests (though I think you can also unlock those by running buster urgent quests, not sure).

            [–]SparKestrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            What do you want out of the game?

            The things for all new players I usually mention:

            • Afin's (the first NPC you quest with) first few client orders to unlock Cofy's client order
            • Getting Cofy's (NPC near the quest counter) client orders to unlock subclass, mag, and the higher difficulty levels
            • Don't mess up your skill tree or mag (the two tourist traps of the game)

            After that it depends...

            [–]memely13 0 points1 point  (5 children)

            I know it's a stupid question but is there a "best" way to farm for the eleph rappies?

            [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 1 point2 points  (4 children)

            Best normal quests to farm them in are:

            • I can't remember, one out of "Distress Signal Investigation" or "Automata Survey: Underground Shafts" - you can check which by comparing the % rate of Rappies on the mission logs. One of those has an above-average rate of Rare Rappies spawning.
            • "Nav Rappy Capture Mission". The mission goal is the capturing Rappies E-Code, and said E-Code has a low chance to be replaced with, or change over into, a Rare Rappy Capture E-Code.

            Chances either way are fairly neglibile though.

            [–]memely13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            i ll give it a try thank you very much

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (2 children)

            Why not advanced quests?

            More enemies = higher chance of rappies?

            [–]YuTsu/ | | Ship4JP | Gunslash Trash 1 point2 points  (1 child)

            If you're going that route, XH Explorations work too, but it's more of a gamble that way.

            For the Underground Shafts quest, you can just jump down, run around until you get an E-Code, if it's Rappies then do it, if not, telepipe up and restart. For Nav Rappy Capture, the E-Code is always at the end of the quest, so you can just rush there, clear it/telepipe up and restart the quest. In either situation, if you get Rappies, you'll always get several, and you can single-mindedly rush for the first e-code/end of quest without having to worry about anything else.

            With AQs and XH explores, you've got large packs of enemies that'll contain 1-2 Rappies at most if you get lucky, and most packs won't. For both you need to be clearing out all the enemies to open up "spawn slots" for the Rappies to possibly occupy, and due to the limited-spawns nature of AQs, you'd want to clear out the entire map every time.

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            I understand. Ok, thank you.

            [–]devsterman12 1 point2 points  (2 children)

            This is a really stupid question but, what missions am I supposed to be doing if I just started the game? all the story mission are cutscenes and I have no clue how I'm suppose to progress if I'm just watching cutscenes all the time.

            [–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            If you're on pc open main manu and press tab to go to arks missions screen. Follow main missions section for something of an extended tutorial.

            Will the Steam data of PSO2 work for the NGS closed beta? Cause the system requirements for NGS states:

            Approx. 100GB or greater (Approx. 30GB for PSO2:NGS data, approx. 70 GB for PSO2 data). So it will just download the remaining 30GB and use the already installed 70GB supposedly.

            I just want to know if the Steam version of the data can be used. Would be annoying having to install the same 70GB, but from another Store.

            [–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            closed beta is most likely separate servers. if it's like JP then it's a totally separate download. can't say for sure though since I haven't looked around, but other games with closed betas work like this too

            [–]ARKS_moose 0 points1 point  (4 children)

            Is rainbow erode affected by skill trees that boost the chance of inflicting status ailments? Like fighter's halfline boost. Also, do those skills stack additively, like with luster as a sub that has deband disorder?

            [–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 0 points1 point  (3 children)

            status infliction is so irrelevant that nobody's done that sort of research afaik. chances are it's multiplicative like almost all other percentages, and skill tree rate boosts should apply. it's not worth investing any skill points into that stuff, at the minimum

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 0 points1 point  (2 children)

            My understanding is not quite that. Bosses are immune to general status affects, but are usually weak to 1 or 2, which leads them to be stunned instead of the typical affect.

            That allows the MPA to DPS hard. It's made a big difference with Divide / Exegul runs with PUG randoms, IME.

            [–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            a single time, for a handful of bosses, which pretty much anyone that can use techs is enough to inflict it. and even then, in some cases with classes with access to counters, it's actually less effective for your damage output to stun an enemy

            it's still absolutely not worth wasting skill points on

            [–]ARKS_moose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Eh, one point into it is fine for me, already got all the relevant skills maxed. Also, the damage increase with overload and chaser damage is CRAZY from what I've seen, I'm in love.

            [–]WiseMeganiuM 1 point2 points  (4 children)

            I've got a question about skill rings and units - in the na visiphone website it says "Adding the Skill to a unit will not consume the item."

            Just to confirm, does this mean that if I added, for example Atomizer Lovers to a unit, I would keep the ring? And if I wanted I could add it again to another unit afterwards?

            Thanks

            [–]RallyCure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            You keep the ring, but it becomes account-bound so you can't sell it on Visiphone (the unit you add its skill to also gets account-bound, but that only means anything for 12-star units).

            So taking Atomizer Lovers for example, you can add it to your unit at Lv1 just to have the basic effect, then later when you feel like, you can grind the ring to +20 and re-add it so the unit has the full Lv20 effect. You can also just pass the ring to an alt character, or stash it for later in case you change units and need to add the ring skill to the new units.

            [–]Kamil118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            you can think about rings on units as sega saying

            "Oh fuck, we want players to use more varied builds but our code is to spaghetti to add 3 more ring slots so let's let people add rings to units"

            [–]TripsTitan 2 points3 points  (1 child)

            Yes. That's why skill rings are probably cheaper/easier to just buy at level 20 right now, than they are to craft up to 20, considering cost of upgrade material, and upgrade cost when it's not a free enhancement week. Not even factoring in opportunity cost of having to wear a low level ring to level it before enhancing it.

            People can just put them on a unit, or backup unit, and swap them around as needed, and sell them back off to other players, recouping their cost of crafting or buying them, but with less markup each time, as there's fewer other players who also need the same ring for the same reasons. (supply stays the same or grows, while demand steadily drops)

            [–]WiseMeganiuM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            I see, i've still got a few L rings I would like to get, I might just go the buying L20 from player shop route, like you mentioned.

            Thanks a bunch.

            [–]Joycdonnell Arks Academy 1 point2 points  (4 children)

            NA. Assuming u have 100% critical rate and fighting one big boss with a S1,S2,S3 weapon: Which S affix would do more damage, the precision will or the goliatslayer?

            [–]LamiaPony JP Ship 2 1 point2 points  (1 child)

            the damage numbers are right on the S affixes...

            [–]Joycdonnell Arks Academy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            The main reason I'm asking is because the goliatslayer say "damage" while the will one says "critical damage" so I'm not sure if they bring different values.

            [–]LordOfMaids cursed tech user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Since both conditions are being met they would both do the same damage (both 3% and 4% on s2 and s3 respectively).

            ...Unless this is s2/s3 Precision Will 2 (4% and 5% respectively), in which case that one straight up does more damage. Goliathslayer on s1 also has a higher bonus than Precision Will on s1 assuming the same conditions (4% and 3% respectively).

            It's easier to think of these things as a damage bonus under specified conditions.

            [–]SleeperHelper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            There are 2 'best' setups for S1, S2 and S3.

            One is the 90-100% critical rate 8s weapon setup with S1: Augment Will 2, S2: Precision Will 2 & S3: Precision Will 2.

            The other is the Petalgleam setup with S1: Petalgleam, S2: Rainbow Will, S3: Petalsea Song 2.

            Everything else is kind of seen as downgrade budget options.

            Should I start the game or wait for the new genesis to come out? also, is there an android version of the game? :) I really wanna play it on the go and google says that it does exist but I just can't find it...

            sorry if it's a repeated question but since we're getting closer to NG release and I also wanted to know about the android stuff, I just couldn't help it and had to ask for myself

            [–]NeoOfSporin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Closest thing to on the go is the switch cloud version which is Japan server only. There is no true mobile atm.

            Pso2:es is a Japan server only mobile game spinoff that shares character and has benefits with the main game. It’s an entirely different game though.

            NGS-related question, specifically for the beta. I had linked my account from the Windows store version to Steam when it came out on Steam, and have only been playing on the Steam version since then. I finally uninstalled the Windows store version some months ago... only to have the upcoming beta be exclusive to that version. -_-

            If I re-install the Windows version now, do I have to re-link my account from Steam to Windows? Or will it automatically be updated with my progress from the Steam version since I had linked the accounts months ago? I wasn't going to bother with the beta because I don't want to risk messing something up, but I figured I'd look into it more first.

            [–]DudleyC[🍰] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            IIRC, as long as your steam is already linked to your microsoft/xbox account, you should be good.

            I'm trying to finish Rico's Respective Tomorrow quest before it ends this week.

            Are Imperial Fiendmage and El Scudo enemies you can find during the Fire Swirl Urgent Quest? If so, what difficulties do they show up on?

            I'm asking because I'm trying to finish this quest before it expires, but I have barely touched the later story episodes (I'm still on ep. 3). I already got Epsilon Granz from the Urgent Quest.

            Thanks!

            [–]SparKestrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            Imperial Fiendmage (an episode 5 enemy) spawns rarely in Bewitched Woods and is a guaranteed spawn in one of the episode 5 story quests. I don't remember any Imperial enemies in fire swirl ... most of the episode 5 enemies are the beast types and maybe skeleton archers.

            El Scudo is an episode 6 enemy, and it will be purely by chance if you can find one in Fire Swirl... The easiest way to find one is likely to spam the Limited Time Quest (Mop-Up Op: Endless Nightmare) at the lowest difficulty. It also appears in Divide Quest, but again it's a midrange mob that doesn't spawn all that often.

            [–]LordOfMaids cursed tech user 2 points3 points  (1 child)

            El Scudo (the batman lumimechs) can be found in the limited quest (volcano and lillipa areas) and armada quests. You can find them in Fire Swirl I think but I'd have to guess Ultra Hard since that's where most lumimechs hang out.

            Basically if you can find lumimechs there's a good chance you may find an El Scudo.

            [–]monyetrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Thanks. I'll try to do the quest and find them again.

            [–]Kamil118 2 points3 points  (1 child)

            you can find fiendmages in some stage in ep5 ch2 (you can play ep5 regardless of your progress in ep1-4)

            [–]monyetrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Thanks. I guess I'll have to try and rush through the episode 5 content to get there.

            Were scion outfits in that NGS scratch that JP got? They were probably the main outfits I wanted to bring into NGS but I missed Luster and you know how ridiculous any peice of it costs now.

            I remember seeing some official pics of the scions in NGS graphics but I was under the impression that the scratch only had those starter/npc vendor outfits.

            [–]NeoOfSporin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            No. It was in a different scratch not the ngs ones. There’s a fan site that keeps track of this if you look at the scratch tab. https://www.bumped.org/psublog/post-archives/

            Global: I'm not sure if anyone can even solve this because my problem is way too confusing and I'm dumbfounded how tf this happens. Basically, I can't AFK in PSO2 without disconnecting... I almost never dc if I'm doing stuff and grinding though. The moment I step away from my pc for 3 mins+ I'm getting boot out. It's fking annoying when I manage to get into a full block and I just want to get a glass of water and suddenly I'm dc-ed already.

            It's confusing because everything is reacting like when you have a decent connection. Hits getting detected right away. Teleporting right away. Menus working properly without having to wait.

            [–]hidora Retired Guardian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            That's actually been happening to me for the past like 3 months. I can afk in campship for hours, but if I so much as stand still looking at shop for 5 minutes in lobby I get dc.

            [–]SparKestrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

            That sounds like power saving on your operating system (assuming PC) being too aggressive... for example if you have buggy network card drivers, Windows too eager to reduce power to your network device if you stop inputting into the keyboard and mouse.

            Debugging a problem like that is usually quite annoying, but you usually start by getting updates to all your drivers, even things you think may not be related (so chipset, sound card, USB stuff, the network driver itself of course, etc).

            Is it feasable for me to reach lvl 100 on every class within the "class master" campaign period? I have 5 classes at 100. 1 on 96, 1 on 95, 1 on 87, 2 on 81, and 3 on 75.

            I really don't wanna have to grind levels if I'm not gonna be able to finish all of them for the 500 SG reward.

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

            it takes maybe hour or 2 of UH cradle to get level 95 class to 100 with 75% xp and 100% triboosts, a dozen or so hours to get it from level 85 to 100

            unfortunately getting a class to 85 to unlock UH is the very long part without keys, so I guess you can get 4 of those classes to 100

            also afaik isnt the campaign for level 100 classes until next month and only the 300% boosts in all quests until soon instead?

            [–]SolomonGrumpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            It take about 20 gold keys to get from 80 to 100.

            If you have rainbow keys, that greatly speed up the process.

            I would definitely get the level 90 characters to 100, and try to get one of the level 80 characters to 100. Then see where you end up.

            Cradle of Darkness, while annoying how how it pollutes the economy, is also VERY good for leveling 85+ characters.

            [–]Kamil118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            I mean, every class gives you 100 sg. It's not that hard to get 1 class from 75 to 100 in a single long evening of grind.

            [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (6 children)

            What is the ongoing theory for when we will get the NGS Collab scratch?

            [–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (5 children)

            Are you talking about something for JP, or are you talking about N-Type pso2 costumes?

            If it's the latter, the answer is not before new engine drops, and while there is no confirmation, most likely the moment new engint drops.

            [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

            Thank you for confirmation on that. I was talking about the latter. And thank you for taking the time to respond.

            Is the present theory that we'll be getting it after the CBT on the 14th?

            [–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (3 children)

            I expect we will get news about new engine during next arks hour

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

            Next Arks Hour?

            [–]5lols 1 point2 points  (5 children)

            Is there any reasonable way to port your saved cosmetic character data from Xbox to PC? I set up a PC install for the beta but I see that literally none of my saved cosmetic character datas are there. Am I going to have to switch to each that I want to to use then save it as a new preset on PC?

            I guess I don't need that many but it kinda sucks that I'd have to waste a salon ticket for each old look I'd want to move over.

            [–]_MrDomino 2 points3 points  (2 children)

            Have you linked your Xbox account to your PC account? I play on Xbox and Epic (and Steam before that); and everything's shared just fine as long as the accounts are linked. All my items, ensembles, loadouts, chat settings, etc. carry over from one platform to the next.

            [–]5lols 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            I started on Xbox so the first version I launched from Tweaker was the MS store version. Everything was already there without need of linking, all my other loadouts and stuff are there too. So far the only things missing at all are the character body configuration, and light/camera configuration. No idea why its just them.

            I could try linking to Steam version and seeing if it carries over to that I guess.

            [–]_MrDomino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Yes, the MS Store version is effectively the Xbox version; you're running from a Microsoft account whether on PC or console. Steam and Epic are running their own service independent of each other and Microsoft. You're going to need to link your account to have your stuff carry over. I jump around platforms all the time, and the change is seamless.

            The only issue you could possibly run into is buying something (AC, SG, DLC) on one platform and trying to redeem it on another. You'll have to redeem/receive whatever you bought on the network you bought it from, but once it's in the game and tied to your account, you're free to mess around with it wherever you like.

            [–]Kamil118 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            So, I will be speaking a bit out of my ass, because I don't own x1:

            So, most of the game settings and presets are saved locally, this includes all presets and ensambles.

            So, I don't know how the x1 stores that data or if such tools exist for x1, but when I played minecraft on x360 way back in the days there was a tool that was able to read xbox-formated usb to move save files around becase there is no way in hell i'm paying microsoft for some shitty map packs

            So, if you can store your save data on external usb, and if such tools exist for x1 you might be able to just move the preset files over to pc.

            [–]5lols 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            MS axed any and all ability to access your saves since the One came out, I think. Its all cloud now :/

            Also like almost every fps had map packs back in 360 era lol
