Whis keeps doing that tap my shoulder thing to distract me while Beerus throws Spheres of Destruction at me. It's bothersome. I did like Beerus just kinda deciding not to be puppeted though. That was sick.

He made a miraculous recovery, causing the vet to comment that "he must have a god watching over him." And thus Beerus was born.

It's random. Some drops are tied to Ultimate Finishes, but it's still just RNG at work.

I just want to say... if you are a Ki Dude, and you aren't using Big Bang Attack, what the gently caress are you doing?

Big Bang Attack does damage during the start-up pose, then full damage of the actual attack after. It is the best ki attack I've found to combo into from strings. Go get it...

My current set-up:
Galick Gun
Big Bang Attack
Maximum Charge
Death Slicer (will replace this with something else)

Break Cannon / Final Flash / Giant Storm
Super Vegeta
Need a fun Evasive, still using Vegeta's "I explode stuff around me"

I was just reading on GameFaqs that master's have friendship bars which fill up when you use them as allies in battles, do PQs and use their moves. According to the FAQ the best way to level them is to use two of them as allies in battles. That would have been a nice thing to know. I'm level 40 and only have Krillin at Mentor Level 3.

And while we are at it, God Breaker is really goddamn good, too.

I think the best thing for the "fight a bunch of dudes" story quests is a Z Soul that gives X upon KO. Vegeta's "dirty fireworks" one gives a stupid strong bonus on attack power each time you kill something, and in PQs where there's sabaimen or whatever that I'm grinding on, after 3-4 I'm killing them in 1 string with literally 0 put into Basic Attack.
It's also a 100% drop, you just need to spar him after you mastered his stuff. He even gives you some cool, "this isn't training, this is a battle between two seasoned veterans" and he meets you as an equal in an epic volcano for a man-on-man sweaty punch fight.

To answer some other questions I've seen:

Z Assist only works with Ultimates. Try it with Final Flash.
Bardock's armor is in the game.
There's a few sword moves, pretty much pick two of these words three times: Slash, Brave, Shining, Blazing, Sword
RE: Evasive Spam - You can back-up, stop mashing, vanish, block, or what I usually do is just jump back.
Characters scale with your level. If you are level 1, your Super 4 Vegeta is weaker than a level 80 Super 4 Vegeta. This is so you can't just shortcut your way in PQs. Not all characters are created equal, though... Trunks' 1st costume is a goddamn melee monster. Holy gently caress. Super Perfect Cell's invincible/unblockable Perfect Kamehameha is awesome to use as a counter Ultimate. If you see someone do an Ultimate... do yours, and you will take no damage and gently caress them right up. All the Gokus have easy strings that combo naturally into Kamehameha.

:hf: the struggle.

I don't mind the rewards being random because all the PQs have like 10 items and it would be sort of lame if you got all of them every time, like how every MMO handles loot, but what they need to do is knock it the gently caress off with the ultimate endings being random. That poo poo can gently caress right off.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.


Well that got awkward quickly I'm just sorta... stuck there now...

I think the game silently crashed, Yup... stuck on a white loading screen

My only wish is that more armor pieces were customizable colour wise. I hate being out of uniform.

Also Grinding mentors is pretty easy once you realize "Double pair, spam their super" is the key to victory.

My only wish with Xenoverse 2 would be God Hand style custom combos.

Yeah, I agree there. Thankfully so far only a couple of the must-have items for me have been behind Ultimate Finish, and the rest I've gotten fairly easily. This one just really sucked though, probably because it was so long. The other one I had a lot of trouble with was completing Sabaimen Revenge quick enough to get Giant Storm... but that at least was pretty transparent being a time thing.

Took me about 2 hours of grinding and about 8-10 SSJ Vegetas, which I was getting about 1/3 the time. Time to wreck the rest of the story, I guess.

I've seen huge threads about getting SSJ 1 from that other PQ, maybe the SSJ forms are just hidden behind the most terrible RNG imaginable. If this is you, please do not attempt. You can buy SSJ 1 from the store for 40k after Cell.

I also wish I could put on a hat without losing my flowing yamcha/kid gohan locks.

EDIT: And different accessory slots for eyes and heads, I'll put on my Yamcha Sword, sunglasses and Krillin hat in honor of my first master.

Second master right now is Vegeta, which is "Spam Galick Gun until they are dead"

I was gonna keep grinding for Kaioken x3 but it's like "Maybe start the freiza saga you're probably over levelled at level 20"

I'm a simple Saiyan. I'm a weird guy who doesn't mind looking like an extra in King Vegeta's throne room.

The bottoms are Ginyu pants. I think it's cool that the Saiyan torso has the tail and stuff, it just gets overwritten with certain bottoms. This way I can have a tail, and pants.
