Has there been any word on SSJ4 Vegeta being available for purchase later? I honestly think the Xbone version is gonna be my primary; since it's on my glorious 50 inch TV, but since I bought digital on day of release, I didn't get the Day 1/preorder bonuses.

Just use your aura dash to get away from the deathball, or bring along the super guard. That ball hits like a truck, regardless of level.

Considering Friezamen are the fast guys, would they be viable for a full support build? Just max out your ki so you can spam Solar Flares and Para Para Boogie, then pop a Ginyu Body Change for when you're on solo missions or when you're in a smashing mood.

If this is anything like most MMOs, then starting race stats are going to be really negligible in the long run. Plus we've already seen clothing does very little impact, I imagine they gave them slight differences to give them some flavor (as most MMORPGs will do with character creation, even though this isn't an MMORPG really) but its not really something you're locked into.

I don't really know for sure, but I'd figure the starting stats are pretty small in differences and that after you get 10 or 20 levels under your belt you're more defined by where you put your level points than by your race. Which would be a good thing.

ZenVulgarity posted:

Yep. Some of them could be rewards from other stuff too? But yeah, you have to do them over and over if you want that ability right now. Good luck.

Welp I tried everything to get my error fixed, I even tried making a new character as one idiot online suggested that I should have been smarter than trying.

Well, luckily everything's saved, now I just gotta grind up Lemogras my midget Saiyan I guess, or maybe make a Frieza or something since I might as well try for new stuff, lemons and lemonade and all that jazz.

Gonna try the re-initializing idea, luckily all my poo poo is on PS+'s cloud so it's just a matter of re-downloading a few games...like Xenoverse.

I figure this error's gonna plague me regardless so this has become more than just getting shiny gold armor...still want that drat shiny armor though :argh:

whooooooo loving knows, but most likely, yeah. It seems random at times. Other times you can get certain events to happen and items to drop if you do specific actions, like finish Piccolo with an ultimate attack before beating Gohan. Stuff like that.

I was mainly asking because speed seems size and race dependant, not stat based. Probably because if it scaled like the point value stats things would get absurd fast.

It takes a real long time, you have to beat the story first. Thankfully I never found any of the story missions boring but you do have to beat like 50 of them and jesus christ Trunks shut up!!

I am trying to get a z rank on a namek map, trio i think. But you have to leave krillin and piccolo alive, wait for vegeta, then kill vegeta, then piccolo, then krillin. This gets freiza to spawn but this game doesn't let me tell my allies this easily.

Alright goons, things are not going well and I need to figure out whether I'm just terrible at this game or if I'm doing it wrong. Right now I've got a female Saiyan with twenty points in Ki, twenty in Strike and fifty points in Basic and I am just getting wreaked by everything. Part of that I'm sure is low Saiyan health means I don't have much room for error, but I really don't seem all that effective even when I am beating the piss out of enemies without getting hit.

My first thought is to respec with Shenron and put those forty other points into Stamina instead and see about using Kaioken x20 to more effectively beat the crap out of everything. But with that much Stamina make a huge difference in how long it lasts or is that just a waste? My other thought is to just abandon basic attack altogether and put those points into Ki Blast instead, but is that actually a worthwhile strategy either?

Mostly I don't want to farm up the balls just to make my stats dumb and have to do it all over again. Help?

I really wish that you unlocked your other gokus as you completed story arcs instead of unlocking all of them at the end. I'm loving the poo poo out of playing my butt-chinned karate mans kicking evil in the face across time and space but I wouldn't mind trying out something more ki blast focused. That and I've unlocked parts of Chi Chi's costume but can't wear them. :mad:

It's best to stay at least a little bit balanced. Different enemies have different strategies, and specializing in "just ki blasts" or "just stamina" will have you hitting a wall every time an enemy happens to capitalize on your weakness.

That said, stamina's pretty important since it factors into how long you can attack, how many times you can blink, and how long you can block. I think you get a new stamina bar every 15 points or so.

Did you put any points into health? :confused:

Why would you respec for stamina and not health? :confused:

I guess you feel like your damage is too low and more health wouldn't really help, but if I'm getting rekt I usually drop a few points in health and it gets easier.
