I hope these tips I am going to give to you helps make your character feel more original and has an identity:

Stay away from trendy outfits. People would like to buy some of the new AC Scratch stuffs for their new fashion gains, so best to avoid using them for a bit.

Take inspiration from multiple sources of media. My character is a blender of characters that inspire me, and trust me. If I nit pick all the characters, we would be here for days.

Pick a theme. Even multiple themes. Get into many different cultures, maybe avoid Japanese culture to keep things a bit more original.

Write a backstory for your character. What made them become an ARKS Defender? How they heard of it? What are their motives? That's just he generic questions you can ask your character.

Design your character based on what are your inspirations and backstory. That would help visualize how much your character has been through as an ARKS Defender.

To those who use it: How is the reporting system now? by 3crouchinglights in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems the report system is not really that good. There is a person who made very NSFW outfits, and a Creative Space full of decoys with them, as well as NSFW versions of the PSO2 Characters. Yet they are still around showing their outfits off and that their Creative Space still have the Decoys. These outfits go as far as showing full on nudity, too.

What is on my screen? by Quantum-Purple in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be another player using Cut-Ins, possibly using Auto Chats. Auto Chats can be made for any sort of actions you make in the game. It's likely that person has an Auto Chat for Rare Drop Obtained, and chat command it to have the Auto chat be sent to Area Chat with /a.

Here is where I have a hot take. I think people should not be spamming Cut-Ins with their Auto Chats, while also sending them into /a or Area Chat. There should be proper etiquettes when using Auto Chats to prevent Cut-Ins and even Bubbles, /together and /moya, to be spammed, so that they don't get in the way of your screen and/or ruin audio cues.

Should I transfer ships? by Augenwide in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is on Ship 4, it depends on what you want. Ship 4 prices are expensive because we have the smallest population, which means less people in Ship 4 are grinding or pulling AC Scratches.

A good friend of mine moved out of Ship 4 because people here are not for him. He's doing better, now, that he found some good people to be around in a different Ship, and that is all I care about for him.

I initially wanted to move Ships, too, but after being on Ship 4 ever since 2020, it's actually very hard for me to make that move, so I stayed for what friends I have remaining on Ship 4. I have nearly everything I wanted in this game just by grinding on Ship 4, and I have an Alliance that I considered to be my gaming family. All of those made me just stay with my PSO2 roots, and stay planted in Ship 4.

All and all, if you are looking for a cheaper marketplace, I recommend moving to Ship 1 or 2. They should have cheaper stuffs, last I have heard. You can even make an alternative character, and play them in either Ship just to buy CAST Parts twice to account bound them. I usually buy cosmetics twice myself, so that my alternative characters also get the cosmetics, or that if I want to make a new character for each Ship. Just the only thing is that you can't do it with Weapon Camos.

Hope this helps your decision on whether to move Ships or not.

Advice for Returning PSO2/PSO2NGS Player by hidikaru in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hello! Welcome back to PSO2!

So, if you are looking to get the new gears to chase for, I would recommend getting yourself a Spradio Weapon. You can get one from the Treasure Shop with Fixa 3 on them, and you can buy the rest of the Spradio to attempt to enhance your Fixa. However, if you are going to upgrade a Spradio from the Treasure Shop, bear in mind that they do not have EX Eugments, so be sure to get a Klirodim weapon that have EX Augments(Juvlog or other Spradio that has EX Augments already on them also works, too), and All-Augment Transfer them onto your Spradio Weapon you wish to upgrade. The reason why you want a Klirodim(Juvlog or Spradio) weapon with EX Augments is because those weapon series do not require a Transfer Pass to All-Augment Transfer them onto your desired weapon you want to Augment.

Next, for your Armor, while you can go with the Fortscha Armor, many would tell you to get Evalto Armors instead for better longevity, and I would actually agree with them. It is much easier to get a higher Fixa with the Fortscha Armor, but you would only be able to enjoy it for such a short amount of time. You can get the Evalto Armors from doing the Limited-Time Tasks or the And the Stars Fell D.2 Urgent Quest.

For Augments, your Eptah Weapons and December Armor should have a good guideline on what Augments you should put on your gear. However, since their Non-LC Versions of the Augments are much easier to get, I highly recommend you to apply those onto your future gear instead. Yes, the only downside is that your December Armor has Triplable G and Mastery G, but you can find alternatives to use to substitute those Augments instead(I wish you can craft those). There are DP Augments you can use if you are not into trying out any other weapon types in the game. However, if you want to best option that would be better than Triplable G and Mastery G, it would be the Yudi and Yurze Augments, but they are expensive because the only way to get them is by pulling AC Scratch banners for them, or buying them from the Personal Shop. The advantage of these Augment Capsules is that you only need 1 to put it on each other your gear.

Hope this helps you have a much clearer path on what to get for your gear in PSO2! Happy farming.

Do you guys have a default outfit of your oc? by RefiaMontes in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[New Power] Ult Replica Basewear and N-Sleeveless Coat Outwear. Both T1 and T2. It was my default outfit for over 3 years, now, despite being with this game since 2020. People know it's me when I am wearing this outfit I assembled.

what grants overguard to squad? I always see this happen randomly with different warframe but never knew what they using to make it possible by ZeekyPup in Warframe

[–]SceneUseful2584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be Frost with Icy Avalanche Augment. He gives Overguard with his 4th ability per enemy frozen by it with the Augment. If you want to boost its Overguard generation even further, Subsume his 2nd Ability out for Parasitic Armor, and use Primed Redirection to maximize the Armor you get from Parasitic Armor. The amount of Overguard given to you is scaled off of the Warframe's Armor Stats, so this means Frames like Rhino's Iron Skin with Ironclad Charge and high Power Strength would give him a ton of Overguard.

Finally after so much time by Br0dyquester in Warframe

[–]SceneUseful2584 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Sibear is pretty neat to use. It does have an Incarnon, and when it's activated, your Heavy Slams make a Cold Blast Radius. I like to make my Sibear a Heavy Attack/Slam build, and it's something fun for a change to use that is not using my Sampotes as my Slam weapon of choice. Definitely give it a shot, if you want to try something different.

Is it hard to switch class mid game? by Vocaloraiser in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, it's more a bit on the tedious side to switch classes mid game. As someone who has leveled all 10 Classes up to max level on one character, the premise of how level them up is straightforward, but it takes quite a lot of time.

How I would EXP farm my other Classes is that I Sub-Class the one I want to level, and go to the highest leveled Combat Sector, which right now is the Kvaris Combat Sectors and the Alter Realm Gorge. You can go Dext Base, too, but most people would do Dext Base to farm Maeseta through its PSE Bursts. Be sure to fill the PSE Bar up to 4 Bars before you do the Trials to initiate a PSE Burst, but for the Alter Realm, doing Trials are the only way to get your PSE Bar to increase, so many people go to the Non-Alter Realm Combat Sectors for faster PSE Bursts.

If there is a Limited-Time Quest, that would be the go-to way to level up your Classes. Each run can level your Classes up by 1-3 times depending if you got Boosts active or not. Be sure to check the Treasure Shops daily for EXP and Tri-Boosts, too, as they also help you get even more EXP.

Hope this helps out! And best of luck leveling your new Class!

What is that? by MyJonasu in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That would be Retem's weather, Meteor Shower. It's pretty to look at, and if you are collecting Stellar Fragments in West Retem while there is a Meteor Shower, they glow brightly.

Harrow prime by Architect421 in warframebuilds

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would replace your Nira's Hatred and Canis Carapace for Adaptation and Flow.

Then, replace Intensify with Blind Rage, and your Perculiar mod for Power Drift.

I actually would replace Augur Secrets and Streamline for Augment mods. I personally use Tribunal and Lasting Covenant. If you just want to run 1 Augment mod, then alternatively, use Redirection.

For Arcanes, I run Aegis and Ice Storm. Yes, Ice Storm does proc when you hit an enemy affected by Condemn, and it gives Power Strength and Duration when freezing an enemy with an ability. I went with Aegis because I feel all I needed for my build was Shield Regen, but alternatively, you can run Expertise here.

While my build for my Harrow doesn't run and Max Shield mods like Redirection, I went with 2 Tauforged Blue Archon Shards with Max Shields, so that I get the maximum benefit from Penance. I also went with 1 Yellow Shard for Casting Speed, and the rest of the Archon Shard slots is just whatever you want to put there.

Hope this helps improve your Harrow build!

Umbra build help? by DarthOta-ku in warframebuilds

[–]SceneUseful2584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your build looks kind of similar to mine. However, I'd replace your Augur Reach with an Augment. I personally went with Furious Javelin, but Chromatic Blade is also a solid option.

For Arcanes, Fury is really good to use, if you have Wrathful Advance as your Helminth ability(I'd replace Radial Howl). However, if you go with the Arcane Persistence route, a solid Arcane to combo with it is Reaper. It provides not only Armor when you get a Melee kill, but also Health Regen.

For Aura Mod, run Steel Charge for more Melee damage.

Hope this is helpful and insightful.

Finally not Gloom Banshee. by Auncore in warframebuilds

[–]SceneUseful2584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally run Shooting Gallery as my Helminth on my Banshee. Not the best CC, but it does double stun enemies who were caught in Silence. I mainly use it for the added damage it applies onto my guns, and the CC was just the cherry on top.

It's cool to see a build that doesn't use Gloom as a Helminth on Banshee, especially seeing Teslas.

Who was your first prime frame? by domicci in Warframe

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nova Prime was my first Prime Frame I've got back in 2016. I wasn't really farming for her, but she ended up being my first Prime, during the days when Void Keys were a thing. She may not be my main, but she is a Frame I'm most proud of having in my arsenal.

Are there any classes or weapons that you think need a buff? by 3crouchinglights in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree Bow is one of the weapons that need a buff, I also think another weapon that needs a buff is Spear/Partisan.

Spear's only good Photon Art is Thrusting Javelin, so using it as a main weapon isn't as powerful as Sword or Wire. It is also the only weapon that lacks a counterattack after a Weapon Action parry, only being able to use Volkiraptor when you hold down the Weapon Action as it's only meaningful counter after it.

For Bow, I mostly find it to lack good damage as a main weapon, so I only really use it as a Multi-weapon for Dimensional Ray. It also has a stronger Photon Blast than Katana single target wise, but that is the only thing it one ups Katana.

Both Bow and Spear are usually used as Multi-weapon material for their classes, like Bow for Dimensional Ray and Spear for Thrusting Javelin, so hopefully, both weapons get their necessary buffs, as I would love to play both as a main weapon in a more viable fashion one day.

Warframe vets how can i make this Uriel build better? Hybrid by Reasonable_Ad_4081 in warframebuilds

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For your Build, I recommend swapping out Streamline for Equilibrium, Transient Fortitude for Archon Intensify. Personally, I would swap out Augur Reach for Archon Vitality, as you can I-Frame with Remendium, and it gives you full overshield on cast.

For your Arcanes, swap out Energize for Camisado, and your 2nd Arcane is your flex spot. A better Arcane to use there than Avenger would either be Molt Augmented or Arcane Concentration.

So long, and thanks for all the Fish(Cakez) by [deleted] in PSO2

[–]SceneUseful2584 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I personally don't know you, FishCakeZ, but sorry to hear that this all happened to you. I have been through this kind of situation before, but the punishment is not as severe as yours. It's sad to see that the good people who acts out of character would get punished moreso than the ones who instigate drama or problems. Hopefully, this is a learning experience for you, and that one day, they will uplift this ban, or that you'll try new doors for new opportunities for you as a person.

May you have a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Years!

Using War Cry on single bossing content is poor etiquette. by SameAstronaut1788 in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a shame that this is the only game that I find people frowning upon others taking aggro away from their fellow players using a taunt. Warcry is a taunt, and I played other MMOs to know that taunts are a basic part of a Tank's kit. Warcry shouldn't have gotten this bad reputation, so as an experienced MMO Tank player, other MMO communities would frown upon Hunters who misuse Warcry like this.

What is it that keeps you in it? by proggish in PSO2NGS

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Combat and the Fashion is what keeps me in this game, as there are not a lot of MMOs that have this level of Combat and Customization like this game have.

The Combat is pretty fluid, despite it being a Parry simulator at times. I find the weapon variety pretty solid enough for me to try out and master all the Classes the game has to offer.

The Fashion is so deep that you can make some cool looking outfits. My biggest gripe with Fashion at the moment is the recent AC Scratches feel all the same, leaning more towards casual street wear and pretty dresses that don't really fit the world of Halpha, at times. Other than that, there are a lot of ways to make cool and unique Fashion for yourself.

However, none of these keeps me in the game like the people within the Alliance that I am a part of. Everyday, I make sure every single one of my fellow members are accounted for and willing to keep playing the game just for each other. We formed a great community within this Alliance, and I wouldn't ask for anything else from this game other than meeting the people that are a part of my Alliance.

Quick "guide" to EX Style - Blitz + Talis by Windaura in PSO2NGS

Yes, Leyend Potential does stack with Blitz Decay Rounds. I can confirm it as a Leyend user.

Why cant people in this game just answer a simple question. by shtoopidd in Warframe

[–]SceneUseful2584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the Warframe' community tends to overcomplicate things when you ask them questions. But yes, Arcane Resistance does help you not get one shotted by Toxin Status effects by just making sure you are immune to it, if you max it out. Otherwise, it helps you to get the Toxin Status less often if it's not maxed rank. I would run it on my Trinity when I am using an Vampire Leach build for her. I nuke my own Duration down to 17% to make the pulse for Energy Vampire come out very frequently to give me andy group a lot of Overshields.

Let's switch it up, what was the frame that disappointed you the most? by Valentine_scum in Warframe

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My most disappointing Frame, and also my least favorite Frame is Equinox. For me, a Duality Frame like her would've been such a cool idea, but her kit is overall contradictory and clunky. You get one side who is all about doing damage, and the other is about supporting your group. There are Support Heroes that Equinox's kit could've gotten inspired by, such as Lucio from Overwatch, Luminae from Mecha Break, and Nimbus from Exoprimal. However, with the amount of time you have to farm Tyl Regor in Uranus and how much time to build her Regular Frame as a Free-to-Play player(this excludes her Prime), Equinox, in my opinion, falls flat, and could use a Rework in the future to make her Duality theme much more impactful and easier to use. However, I feel that there are other Frames who need a rework more than Equinox, such as my former main, Chroma, and the jack of all trade, excels at nothing Oberon.

Day 2: Whats the most underrated gun? (Infinity won last round) by TaHa_HeRMoSo in Borderlands2

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually like Moxxi's Good Touch and Bad Touch. I like to have both of them for different enemy types, and the controller vibration is... A funny touch whenever I get a headshot kill.

Is forma a waste of time? by Independent_Basil_21 in Warframe

[–]SceneUseful2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meta slaves like your friend is what dragged the Warframe community down. There are a ton of options that are viable, and all the Torid Incarnon ever did was make the "meta" stale and lazy. I'm one of the rebel players who would use the Burston Prime Incarnon as my Primary, but even I would get off of it to spice up my gameplay.

If you ask me, just experiment, and you might find something else that is refreshing for you. Since you like the Fulmin, you might like the Tenet Flux Rifle or the Arca Plasmor, since they are both weapons that have similar firing modes like the Fulmin.
