Zero Distance, Flame Bullet, and Rodeo Drive are good too, and a Gu sub makes them better with Zero Range Advance (Rodeo Drive is shooting damage, but Crazy Smash is R-atk-based Striking Damage). also Cosmos can be pretty good on /Gu too since you practally need to use it at point-blank anyway. Fake Silhouette is fun to gently caress around with, but in a pinch it can block enemy projectiles like elder's meteors! not sure if the projectile can block, but I know the Fake it leaves can at least...

Only a bit ago did I find out I could swing my launcher like a golf club and do damage to enemies twice, once when it hits and then once when they hit the ground about 20 yards down range. It changed my life.

NextTime000 posted:Zero Distance, Flame Bullet   Yep! That was with Hu subbed and a RATK/DEX mag, with the level 1 potential on Flame Visit (I have it at level 3 now but haven't really tested it). Launchers are in the best place they've been since OBT when they were broken as gently caress and got nerfed into the ground, really.

Don't like Standing Snipe potential? here is a weak hit potential: http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E3%83%93%E3%82%B9%E3%82%B1%E3%83%89%E3%83%AD%E3%83%97 it also has high as poo poo t-atk, which works because the weak hit potential applies to ALL damage, not just shooting. and don't forget The Bio Gunslash, since the Just Attack potential applies to both types of damage too

It has some useless ones but the end result has 80 S-ATK, 60 R-ATK, 5 PP and 110 HP. And now it also has zero effort, which I got to lvl.3. A keeper for sure.

So now I have a maxed out mag that is like 30 in each of the attack stats and then 75 dex (and some defense), and then another maxed out mag that is about 60 in each of the attack stats and not much else. What kind of mag should I make next? Is it worth it to just jam everything into one attack stat, or does the diminishing returns make it not worth it?

Pure s/r/t-atk mags are what are generally recommended unless you're doing a mixed build. Also I wouldn't put points into dex unless you want to use crafted weapons, and points in defense are kind of a waste comparatively.

Yeah my poor 40/40/60/50 mag almost never sees any action anymore. Now it is either the 160/30 T-ATK one, 63/127 T-ATK/DEX, 94/0/86/10 (had to put S-atk ahead here to get the 700 for Meteor), or 0/90/90/10 (not even close to 700 R-ATK for red scoops so this one stays on the plan). There isn't really any diminishing returns on any stat outside of dexterity, since the flat bonuses that have been around for 2 years seem to be just as relevant now as they were then. The only way we will probably see that is if Sega decides that Hard Caps like in pso1 are in order. But I myself like just a little bit of dex on my "pure" mags just because.

What's the deal with the six million puny questgivers in this game, anyway? I feel like I wasted so long doing their quests before I realized that dailies and time attack runs were so much more profitable. Also, I wish more stuff was shared between characters. I'm the same player even though my character has changed and I've already seen all this intro and tutorial and mag unlocking and difficulty level unlocking stuff, you don't need to keep reminding me.

I stack puny quests when I go on daily/TA runs, switch classes, then file the tiny ones in. I've gotten Gunner, Fighter, and Bouncer up to level 50 on the back of those puny orders alone. (you start getting diminishing returns around 50-55 and it starts taking ages)

I'll update ya androidhub, also my friend is doing both groups too, and although someone did cancel a replacement showed up almost immediately. Don't know how things went for mewnie last night, but when I logged out it didn't seem good... Also the person who canceled was the only group 2 person there with a time restriction, so group 2 is starting before group 1. Idk if that means 2 hours before group 1 or if we can get away with 1... As for punyquests they are leftover from the old days, but they can't completely remove them I guess... but idk the fi/te/Gu unlock quests seem mia now. Also a lot of the bigger orders scale down so there are cases where some of the puny quests are better to do so you waste less exp on bigger ones NextTime000 fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Oct 18, 2014 |

I wish they'd do what they implemented for the daily recommended quest and give you a list of every CO that applies for the quest you're about to run. Takes so long running around accepting orders.

You can access the recommended COs window for any quest. Once you accept a quest but before you go to the campship, check out the CO menu and pick the second option. It doesn't include every possible relevant CO, but neither does the daily recommended list.

If you're talking about who I think you are, they still went and proceeded to whine a bit about how slow the run was in the thread afterwards. It's pretty unbelievable given how lucky they were to even get into the run at all, ugh. I was in Olaf's group, he was golden by comparison.

He was one of the quietest people there, but he did eventually get in on the "change clothes every run" gimmick.  I did almost get a second set of units, so that was a very productive run. I have no idea what I want to put on them, though.

How much does doing a mission where the enemy levels are too high (ten level gap or something?) limit your xp? Is it enough to justify dropping the difficulty level down? edit: also, my experience with the magic classes is very small compared to the others, but how do you do serious damage to single targets with them, in terms of time and pp expenditure? Or is that not what they are for? Samurai Sanders fucked around with this message at 06:20 on Oct 20, 2014 |

I don't remember at what point it starts dropping off, but unless they changed it recently with episode 3 it's typically 75% of normal EXP on the start of the drop off, then another 5% taken every level above that dropoff.

You can also get a elysion and just fling out uncharged ilbartas, using smacks to refill pp. for jetboots bouncer you get elemental weakness stance, boost all the jetboots skills, and use techs to boost the gear before switching to PAs for damage. most of the time, you'd be subbing fighter for the damage stances or maining it with a multiclass weapon for its critical hit skill.

I'm gonna add that Techer wand bonking owns and is very manly and rugged and please sub Braver with it for Attack Advance. My only 2 70s are Techer and Braver and Techer was barely even 40 before episode 3. Wand is life.

Yeah, I saw the wand gear ability and was wondering if that was made to do serious damage in what was apparently a support class. I guess it is? edit: how many levels you have spent in each class doesn't influence your base stats, right? They're just determined all the way to the max level by your race/gender, right?

Speaking of Bouncer, what good exactly is Elemental Burst supposed to be? I'd rather keep attacking with my imbued PAs personally, but I also don't have techs slotted in with my JB PAs.
