The difference in power between ki supers/ultimates and strike ones is pretty absurd. Most of the ki ultimates are devastating death beams/balls that strip away entire health bears, but all of the strikes save for like, blue hurricane do piddly amounts of damage and are significantly harder to hit with.

Yeah, I've kind of stopped using Victory Rush due to this. I'd rather use a move like Evil Whirlwind as it does good damage, reliably hits, and I don't believe you can be knocked out of it. I don't have all the Strike Ultimates so there may be another decent one there, but Blue Hurricane seems to be the only one worth using.

Yeah, I've made a Strike character and the only Super I tend to really use is that one you get at the very beginning that let's you hold down the button to extend it.



A new patch just hit a couple hours ago, any idea what's in it?

EDIT: Never-mind, someone cracked it open already. It's data for DLC 3, just some costumes, the Whis outfits for Goku and Vegeta. Not unlocked yet, so I don't know why they put them in already.

It's not my picture, some guy on reddit is reporting that it got stealth added with the last patch. Supposedly it also works with ultimates.
This dude is wrong, I got that on release day. It just seems to be the ki-super equivalent of the flurry-and-break-with-a-ki-bar dramatic moment; I have no idea how it determines who wins. I imagine it's just rare, and all you goons seem to be doing Strike Supers anyway, so it makes sense it wouldn't come up a lot.

Pretty much. Don't know that there's a story for it, just that that's blatantly what it is. I skipped most of the dialogue first time through but noticed it because they made a big deal of it in the Team Four Star DBXV LP.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
That threw me for such a loop. I usually listen to a podcast instead of game audio, but, for whatever reason, put my headphones in just in time to hear that flub. It might have been better to not have put a voice in.

I cut Trunks some slack on that line because he's in the middle of being retconned out of existence, maybe his vocal chords are going first. Or something. I'll be honest I didn't notice it until someone else brought it up later.

Apparently, wearing the SSJ Goku wig while wearing the outfit will cause it to become Super Cyan instead.

Does anyone know the Ultimate Finish for the last PQ, the Towa/Mira one? I don't think it's time (unless I'm meant to clear it in a minute or so), it's not allies (because you get none), and it's not "beat Towa/Mira before the other" (I tried that). I mean, it might just be RNG, but it might be something else entirely.

Just trash Towa and Mira in under three minutes, and they get back up and summon a Patroller. Kill all three of them in your remaining two minutes and (I assume) you get the Ultimate Finish. I can't kill those fuckers that fast. Nobody can.

I used my Level 65 Sayian lady, Lattitude, with Freeza's first Mentor Z Soul, Freeza as my mentor, Super Vegeta 2, Supernova and had Gogeta and God Goku as my NPCs.

Wrecked them to hell and back and got a Z rank for it.

So it can be done! Just if you're SUPER CHEAP and have two punching bags to draw attention away from you though.

I did it with my level 82 Saiyan, with two Pans as allies (so they didn't add much). Just Ultimate Charge to full then spam Perfect Kamehameha.

Might I suggest Giant Storm, Gigantic Meteor or Assault Rain? As long as your human is a decent level, even if you have zero points in Ki Supers these attacks do enough damage and auto track to the point you should be able to get the Ultimate Finish.

Humans and Blue Hurricane go together like oil and fire. :P I COULD NOT win the mission until I got rid of my allies and Blue Hurricane'd my enemies to death. I have 6 ki bars, was using 'No more games!' and Perfect Kamehameha. Other skills being maximum charge(which I didn't have time to use due to MIra) Recoome Kick, Gravity Impact and ....is it Shining Blade? The trunks sword move that teleports you to your enemy when you hold it and stabs them even if they are flying at max speed away from you when you appear. If you land Blue Hurricane your natural ki regeneration should refill at minimum 1 bar of your ki before you are out of it so I can use it three times in a row basically with only 6, and a bit, ki bars. I use perfect Kamehameha to face tank any ultimates coming my way and return fire through them.(This also works with 'Citizens of the universe, lend me your power!' and Super Spirit Bomb which has the added benefit of taking more time when you have any to spare and holding your enemy in place for you to recover ki or health.....also that they just love to run up and punch your invincible face during it and therefor get hit by the ball before you've even finished throwing it a lot of the time.)

That'd make sense, since that's one of the skills that are in the game but can't be obtained at all. Plus, it's a transformation that requires no model changes whatsoever, making it perfect to give to the CACs...and besides, it'd give something to the non-Saiyans, so I'm totally cool with it.

Its just a dumb name I threw up for being on a power level par with post Battle of the Gods Goku and Beerus. Let every type of CAC have it as its basically Kaioken but with red hair if they don't want to share Potential Unlocked.

I really hope they officially trim down SSGSS to just True Super Saiyan God in the dub. We'll still have Cyan and blue jokes, but for the sake of the voice actors alone they should probably cut out some of the redundant poo poo.
