That's not really what I was asking, I was asking what rings are pretty much necessary for a class and if you aren't using them you are essentially gimping yourself

GIVE ME 12* UNIT TRADING

splurt splurt

What's the best way to get from 55 to 60 to make the jump to level 70 SH missions that isn't relying on EQs or bonus quests?

I've got 3 friends who, unlike me, don't have unlimited time to jump on during EQs, and they're stuck in this gap where we can't do level 70 SH quests because of the 10 level difference to get full exp, but the VH quests barely give exp.

Run them through AQs. They are exp pinatas with 4 people, especially if at least one of them is decently geared.

...

can you stop

Are they really though? I've found it to be pretty lackluster if you're just literally running them through instead of exit bursting.

Hunter: Gear Save, Sonic arrow JG
Fighter: All of the weapon specific rings
Ranger: Non weak bonus
Gunner: Stance up, Front S-roll
Force: Tech Parry
Techer: None really
Braver: Katana Combat Count Up, bow has no good rings
Bouncer: Dual Blade Snatch, JB has no good rings
Summoner: None really

I'm only addressing class specific rings, you can make your own judgement for the all class ones like air reversal.

Bursts make the bulk of AQ exp, yeah. Without them, you really only have an occasional Tagami to help you.

exit bursting is insane but like, even without doing that you're still going to get that +100% EXP bonus

higher risk on either difficulty will result in more boosted enemies which means even more EXP

>Tagami
Which SHAQ does he spawn in? I've never found one despite running a lot.

I remember him from mines the best, but I'm fairly certain he can spawn in any of them.

Tagami can spawn in free fields and even arks quests as well as AQs (VHAQ too). He's just really really rare. The bright side is that he gives a ton of exp like tokyo bonus ones do.

>Probably over 400 hours in this game total
>Never seen that

(you)

How do you get advance capsules d/e/f besides the casino?

The problem with AQs is that we never get 10 capsules out of them to progress, even if we wind up with a 5 minute PSE burst, so we do one or two, then wind up playing black nyack for the rest of our playtime.

>Techer: None really
The element change ring is fucking great.

If you want a perpetually wind element wand sure

The PB homing ring is a decent ring, it strengthens the power of you blades

While this is a matter of opinion, I don't consider it a must have ring since you still want a rainbow set of wands anyway. You don't need the ring to play Techer which is what he was asking for.

Set the difficulty to +10 before running the quest. I've been running AQs for a while after coming back in Spring, and very rarely did I end up with fewer than 10 capsules.

A good place for D caps specifically is the seaside AQ. It has an ungodly amount of enemies, and some of them can spawn more enemies.

Damn it, I meant E capsules.

>tfw no Harkotan and Earth AQs

Setting it to +10 would require investing 50 capsules up-front, which I don't have. How do you get them in the first place, or is the casino the only way?

After episode 5 forces, bouncers and summoners will have zanverses as powerful as techer's, so techer can focus more other support techs and wand smacking.

...

Did they say that they were giving a mellon a power buff in addition to having it not blow up in your face anymore?

>Level 65 Su
>Su is my last req for hero
The episode 4 LQ better give big dick exp for all of the bullshit it's going to have in it.

Maybe Ep4 LQ will drop a qliphad fuse. And will take 30 minutes on average to complete, with shit EXP.

Only 20 from you if the three friends you bring bring 10 each themselves.

You can buy them for a ton of meseta, casino coins, battle coins, or exchange them for VH capsules.

Uncharged zanverses are fine for solo play.

Advance Capsule d, e, and f can be obtained from the Battle Coin Exchange Shop for 50 BC each (weekly limit of 50 each), this is probably the easiest alternative to either paying meseta outright or the casino.

You can acquire 10x d capsules from a client order from Aika, but you'll need to progress to at least 042-E on the EP4 Story Board for those to open up. You can only clear it once per character, but I believe you can repeat it on different characters for more.

Another NPC, Alice, has a CO that awards 1x a, b, c, and 10x d, e, f once per account; but in order to gain access to hers you need to have cleared the entirety of EP1's story quests aside from the optional chapter, that's ten matter boards and quests you'd have to get through.

>one fuse per run, 10 minute runs
if the exp was decent i'd still do it.

Is the game worth returning to yet?

uncharged barely lasts long enough for you to finish the casting animation

How should I go about leveling up for Hero with Level up quests gone? Nobody really does exit bursting anymore.

how up 2 date is the english translation for this? Returning player here, played at launch for 2 months or so

If you have one class at 75 for each type (ranged striking and teching) and a +35 13 sword, talis, and twin machine gun, then you can come back on July 26 and enjoy the new Hero class.
If not then come back now and get that stuff ready for Hero class.
Actual requirements are just being lv75 in the required classes, +35 weapons optional but you'll suck without them.
Ranged classes: Braver, Gunner, Ranger
Striking classes: Bouncer, Hunter, Fighter
Teching classes: Techer, Summoner, Force
Pick one of each

Do the daily featured quests and hope you get bonus keys. Do the limited quests. It's bullshit without leveling quests but it's not impossible. Got my braver from lv1 to lv64 in the past 3 weeks.

Which 13*s should I pick up for it? I'll be too late for Zeinesis, not to mention no expert block access.

Last long enough for two whacks.

>I'll be too late for zein
Assuming you have enough free time you're really not. I started last week and I only have one more to go for 60 element which is what you really need.

If you don't there's going to be a new collection file coming with the revamped yamato next week I would assume and that'll have a couple of different choices for weapons.

What about units? I'm still using shitty saikis.

>PVP rear red unit for offense
>Shitty rear and back units in the badge shop if you're just looking for 2/3 units for expert block reqs
>The LQ will drop ray units
>You can get zein units from Deus
>Izane units from driving rain if you have a ridiculous amount of luck

Of course everything past the first 2 are completely reliant on RNG and boy does it ever seem like a low chance.

Zeinesis is your best bet right now, and no you're not too late. You have at least 3 CFs you can do simultaneously. Just remember to be in a party of 4, use TriBoost+125%'s from the treasure shop along with Rare Drop Boost+250% from the excube shop and then during the last phase of Zephyros use a 5th Anniversary Donut (which cost 1 anniversary badge each and you should stock up on them). This will make your collection bar go up by like 28% every run, meaning you should get a Zeinesis Weapon every 5 days. 2 days for cooldown means you'll finish in 6 weeks, since you should be running them all simultaneously.

That's assuming you never, ever miss a Deus EQ, which is kind of unreasonable.

>use triboost 125
now now user, dont be unrealistic. Even solo 250+100 tri+50 donuts+50 daily is 26%. after this weeks maint we'll have a 100% rdr/exp boost, so you'll be able to clear a zen sheet in 4 runs if you toss in a party bonus.

>This weeks maint we'll have a 100% rdr/exp boost

You mean the one that's happening in like 2 hours?

Missing a Deus=1 day delay, and you have 20 weeks left. You only need 6 weeks.

So what should I be using until I have Zeinesis then? I'd feel a little bad leeching like a faggot

>after this weeks maint we'll have a 100% rdr/exp boost,
Oh boy really?

>after this weeks maint we'll have a 100% rdr/exp boost
Huh?

Whatever weapon you currently have for your class that has the highest attack stat.

My wife Xiera is super cute!

Highest attack stat and max element*

Nobody seems to understand that your element is a raw modifier to your damage.

ok maybe it wasn't immediately afteer maint, but there was this slide during the last livestream.

OST Vol.5 when

I literally just used a magetsu gold right now. If I knew I'd have waited

We're getting another gold key too? Neato.`

Bonus Key Rappy Gold? I bet it insta-levels you to max or something

It's not this week, just on the 2nd. It's a new thing they're doing. The 2nd of every month will be "PSO2 day" and have a boost and some other rewards for logging in.

Are we gonna have meseta boost as well or dont do those anymore?

rappy keys are gold by default

rappy keys are probably the second best for exp preceeded by tokyo gold so it's going to be a lot either way.

Oh I see, that's cool then. I wasn't entirely sure since I don't recall seeing it mentioned on bumped anywhere.

They're beaten out by magatsu gold keys actually.

Didn't that come out today

Yes but I can't find an upload anywhere. I've been frantically refreshing ffshrine and game-ost all day

Base VR Trigger @ 11 PM EDT

Eh, give it a few hours/days, shit takes time probably

>inb4 its posted in that cancerous Facebook group now
they did it with the vol. 4 ost

What cancerous Facebook group
I'm willing to put up with it for some sweet official Tokyo cuts

You realize maint starts at 10 EDT right?

the PSO2 english community facebook group led by that tranny AIDA, thats where i got a mega link of the Ep3/vol.4 ost

Base VR Trigger @ 10 PM EDT

:Q

Where do I find an english guild in this shit game thats actually alive? Im on ship 2

Whoa what's this
game-ost.com/albums/140355/phantasy_star_online_2_original_sound_tracks_vol.6/
>Release date: August 13 2017

>actually alive
>pso2
lol

Volume 5 is out today, Volume 6 will be out then

I just want people to do stuff with

so what are the odds of hero being bouncer tier?

>People thinking this game is dead
This general is dead because it's so shit. The game is doing just fine during the times it actually should be.

Found it
Entered
Searched
They don't have it
Too cancerous for me to want to stay in it though
It's worse than my uni groups

the pso2g community is dead

Whats the difference between noble and elegant affixes? is it just more pp or is there more of he respective stat it represents

A bit extra of the stat and the PP. Example: Elegant power is 40S-ATK 4PP while noble is 30S-ATK 3PP. The big difference is the price for such a small stat difference.

A bit more atk/hp and 1 more pp, yeah. It's actually not worth it at all for how much they cost.

i figured as much. i plan on 8s'ing my Gyx sword after i 60 ele it and was just curious about the differences because fuck these S-atk jews now i can feel co comfortable just using noble

>plan on 8s
no you don't.

yes i do

how precious

Do we even have a track list for the v5 soundtrack? Or the v6 soundtrack?

We should have one for Vol. 5 by now
Volume 6 probably not but it should be easy to extrapolate based on what's is and isn't on Vol. 5, since it'd be the rest of Episode 4
