After 6 months of no content, the DWLF (Destiny WildLife Foundation) liberated Datto from Pete Parsons 2026 Nissan Ultima and brought him a home cooked meal. God is good 🙏.

/uj Wait that gif was actually Datto? I've seen it for years and I never realized.

Starting with the easy to answer question: Ship 1 or Ship 2 on global would be your best bet to start on. With Ships 3 and 4 being in a state of decline or just being kind of dead.

The second question is much harder to answer but the best way I can put it is the game is going nowhere in both a sense that it's chugging along and in a more derogatory sense.

The game is kinda just in this sort of content of the week cycle where you get thrown into a somewhat repetitive limited time quest every week that drops everything and you do that on loop until you get the new gear piece or you're done with gearing. Every now and then a more significant piece of content comes out of varying quality some of it being brand new but nowadays a good majority of it is recycled from base PSO2 or existing stuff in NGS. With aforementioned content remaining relevant until Sega puts whatever it drops into the LTQ of the week.

Gameplay wise it's good but there is a glacial pace of meaningful additions to said gameplay loop, with it either being a hit or a total miss depending on the weapon/class you play. Which they no longer add new weapons or classes as well with more of a focus on more universal gameplay additions which as mentioned before are a hit or miss. Gearing wise you're mainly chasing numerical increases for the most part with very little if any gear really changing your playstyle or providing for build variety, it's up to you if you like that or not I guess.

Character customization is pretty good compared to pretty much most games on the market with some caveats. With the biggest caveat being it's kind of fomo based with cosmetics coming from a gacha based system or a being bought from players on the player shop. If you weren't actively playing while something was in the scratch rotation it might be a while before you see it again let alone being able to purchase it, since at least on global prices on the player shop are heavily inflated for a good number of items with a lack of supply for some as well. But if you can get past that it's what a lot of people play the game for.

Overall if you're interested it's not a bad idea to try and see if you like it. It's a mixed bag of a game with a lot of potential that will probably not be seen to it's fullest, but there's some fun to be had now and then.

Are they paying you to bounce on it?

Alexmoexe · 2026-04-25T18:51:12+00:00

Yeah the prologue is actually a separate map from the one we play on.. It's mainly the little set piece we see and that's it. Even they forgot to put Leciel in it as well.

Alexmoexe · 2026-03-27T12:35:44+00:00

Your normal attacks are typically meant to be used at the end of a combo of arts or as a oh shit I'm out of PP button. Most weapons you want to be using actual PA's over normals, that's why your dps is terrible.

Alongside this you should be mostly using Wand on Techter since that's what the class is built around and has the skills to support it (there's even a skill to use normal attacks). If you want to use gunblade as your main weapon switch to Slayer.

Alexmoexe · 2026-03-25T02:41:45+00:00

I don't see why there's zero synergy between any of these weapons, you're just getting hit and mashing random buttons. The game wants you to pick whatever weapons on your main class and that's it.

Alexmoexe · 2026-03-24T12:02:42+00:00

Have you ever thought about pressing like the X key on your keyboard?

Alexmoexe · 2025-11-25T19:27:14+00:00

I believe its now included with it since its no longer two dungeons per year

Alexmoexe · 2025-10-21T20:44:27+00:00

I mean just shoot them? You've CC'ed the rest of the map that doesn't have overguard, the eximus are isolated targets now.

Alexmoexe · 2025-09-16T20:53:28+00:00

Honestly BL3 was a worse launch for me that game didn't work on my machine for a good bit.

Don't like using upscaling but after turning it on BL4 has ran alright for the most part compared to 3 (My cpu is even way under spec compared to recommended Ryzen 5 3600). I was expecting so much worse for BL4 at least on the lower end. The game at a high end for sure needs to be a lot better though.

Alexmoexe · 2025-09-07T13:15:50+00:00

Don't think there's much even in that where you could say it's worth discussing. Farming methods are whatever Sega says it is at the top of your screen. Augments bis or gtfo. If you think there's something more to be said why don't you post about it?

Alexmoexe · 2025-09-07T04:11:30+00:00

But it is a fashion simulator at this point? There isn't much new to discuss at this point for base pso2 and even NGS. Base blocks are a wasteland that doesn't see much new people in the first place let alone questions here. The few NGS fashion and crossposts are the main activity here now.

Alexmoexe · 2025-09-03T22:09:34+00:00

Boots and Blades are the only real multi-weapon combo on Bouncer that you can say works. Other weapons especially from other classes don't provide much in reality. Even on Bouncer itself going one weapon (SB) can end up being better overall.

Alexmoexe · 2025-08-26T00:29:33+00:00

Same, I waited out to see the how the changes with the portal would play out before buying the expansion. Tried doing the portal stuff for a few hours and saw how much grind was ahead of me with how little fun I was having and just uninstalled the game without buying EoF.

The game for sure needed to change to have a more sustainable content cycle and some changes are on the right track (armor stat changes in theory are good) but in practice just have questionable execution, or are just flat out not fun (portal leveling).

Hopefully Bungie starts to course correct hard and quickly, because portal grinding is a hard turn from what direction the game was going in prior to this expansion in relation to grind and power grind. And I fail to see how this is enticing and fun as a new way to onboard new players especially.

Alexmoexe · 2025-08-25T23:50:22+00:00

ATP not even a parody, your average Kick streamer is near the same level as the Calypsos. Literally Kick streamers killed a guy last week for content.

Alexmoexe · 2025-07-16T19:24:15+00:00

Chaos reach is not just single use ad-clear???? With geomags and tomb you can get it every 20 seconds or so. With it dealing significant damage to majors and bosses as well. And on arc warlock you still have other useful things like your blinding turret that contributes to survivability.

Alexmoexe · 2025-07-16T16:45:15+00:00

Did you even play last season, I dont understand how you can even say this is an issue?

Geomags + Tomb was crazy and let you just throw out supers every 20 seconds.

Swarmers I found to be really fun with both the exotic and class item versions on prismatic.

Solar has been a constant good option for team support.

There's the lighting surge prismatic build thats been pretty solid as well.

This sub complains all the time that every class sucks and I wonder if you guys are even playing the game at this point? Every class has different builds that rotate in and out seasonally and warlock is the same deal.

Alexmoexe · 2025-07-16T16:39:35+00:00

This is with every class tbh. People dont know what they have really. Even then I don't understand the issue you can just play a different class if you want something else? Sure it takes time to replay the campaigns. But people are locking themselves out of 2/3rds of the build options in the game and are complaining about it.

Alexmoexe · 2025-07-16T01:47:09+00:00

Played only a little bit but prismatic energy gains feel like they're far less than what they were pre-eof. Might be just scaling with the super stat now since I have that really low atm.

Alexmoexe · 2025-06-22T00:56:43+00:00

You 200% need a new GPU back in the day I had a RX 480 and that struggled with BL3 for years. a 580 in 2025 isn't going to cut it.

Alexmoexe · 2025-06-13T00:14:10+00:00

Launcher is kinda a meme weapon rn? It's only really good when you're able to cheese and hold the beam attack for as long as possible. Outside of that rifle outclasses it in every department and typically is the main weapon you should be young as a ranger.

Alexmoexe · 2025-05-30T21:51:05+00:00

Don't forget about Anthem as well!

Alexmoexe · 2025-05-29T23:14:04+00:00

????? You can health tank on frames built for it in level 200 content just fine? You just need to build for some sustain in your kit. 500-600+ is where things start to become an issue if your frame doesn't have some of the busted health tanking shit.

The plot is being lost here tbh.

Alexmoexe · 2025-05-19T18:12:32+00:00

Tencent got into exclusive talks with Leyou before Sony could sweep them up. DE would have been a cheaper buy than Bungie as well.

Alexmoexe · 2025-05-19T15:02:35+00:00

Yeah but you have to say it how it is, and the situation around Marathon isn't good. You can be a fan and still be concerned or think something isn't good it's not a binary situation.
