What the hell was that

...

Remove elves

Some shitposter making mass threads with pokemon porn as the op image, apparently it has happened a bunch over on /vp/.

nintenbabbys are truly the root of all evil

Pokemon autism is the worst kinda autism.

Bui is a HUGE autist/ spammer on /vp/ who decided to flood Veeky Forums for some reason
He'll leave soon

Reminder that Hero is going to be shit.

Where are the new pics?

t. mad fi main who can't accept a new fun class is coming

Enjoy getting outparsed.

What if Hero ends up having some kind of skill that requires it to have a rainbow suite of swords, TMGs and talises

>Using parse
That tells me all I need to know about you

oh shit Bui was here!? damn its been ages since ive interacted with that nig

How is hero supposed to keep up with other melees without all the hu tree multipliers?

By the game adjusting PA power. Braver doesn't really have trouble keeping with Hunter even though Hunter operates on bigger modifiers, Katana just has more PA power innately

>outparsed by a girl again
What the fuck

it's literally 1/3 melee what the fuck

I want to lick A2's sweaty android feet

any tips for fighting solo PD as a ranger?

I'm sorry.

Hi jump ring is usefull for avoiding some things and slow dive roll can save you from that triple slash move

If parsing and balance doesn't matter, that means I don't have to grind or affix any of my gear and I can just spam Sonic arrow for every dps situation right?

Can someone remind me what I'm even unlocking hero for, this game has no content

two more weeks of this shit posting

Do you actually think it's going to end in ep5? People are shitposting because they know it pisses people off and this is the easiest way to do it right now. It's going to be just as bad in ep5 because only around 10% of people in this general actually care about the game and the rest just want to mock and laugh at everyone else.

it ended with ep4 for a while, it'll end with ep5

>and slow dive roll can save you from that triple slash move
You can do that without slow dive

Which T-ATK class should I level up for hero?

Techer is being murdered, Summoner will be ok without Maron if the nerfs are bad, Force is probably going back to early ep3 status.

depends on what you want to prioritize, because of the 75 stat boost

Techer is easier and you'll be contributing more than an undergeared Force/Summoner with buffs, zanverse & zondeel

>girl

would you rather have shitposting about a literally who avatarfag and discord drama instead? if i was forced to choose i would rather deal with class shitposting than anything about people sperging at Lilith or whatever other avatarfags

Why don't they just keep LQs around as a permanent thing? Having something to actually do is nice.

i'd rather have us discuss the FUCKING GAME

thats never gonna happen because one of the two things i mentioned in my post ALWAYS FUCKNG HAPPENS. sometimes both of these things happen at the same time

>people are discussing game
>you come over here and shitpost about shitposting
Incredible.

>criticizing class balance isn't discussing the game

what kind of stat bonus do you get when you upgrade a ray to a union?

Check swiki and stop being a noob

I would actually. At least I could pretend the people here actually care about the game more than they do trolling people over class changes.

How painful would it be to level from 1 to 75, and about how long would it take? LQs are going to be gone again soon, so.

youtu.be/1tyxqdkAuDw

Actually Force with cheap fire setup/Summoner with popple would be best because exit bursting VHAQ is the only good way to level atm and those are what you will need for it

Do you even read this general? Most of the posts aren't discussing game mechanics. For every one person genuinely talking about the changes there's 4 people who just want to shitpost along the lines of saying classes should be deleted, fighter is underpowered, balance is "irrelevant" because you can just get carried, classes I don't like don't deserve to be viable, etc.
A lot of the takes on the changes are bad don't get me wrong. I would much rather have people think Gu is getting nerfed in ep5 for some reason than people gloating over bow dying or saying Fighter needed the buffs just to get a rise out of people.

When is the next AC scratch coming? The ones we have right now are complete shit.

>complaining that there's no gameplay discussion on this thread
Ignore, stop complaining and be about it faggot

fuck off lilith

You can't have a discussion by yourself. Every time I try nothing but shitposts or no responses.

Then post cool gameplay videos

Alright pussyflaps post your solo pd videos

why would I post a mediocre Sword s rank

>posting a video where i barely scraped by since my units aren't affixed
no?

pso2.jp/players/event/5th_anniversary/online/webevent/01/
pso2.jp/players/event/5th_anniversary/online/webevent/02/

Someone explain how the hell these work? I thought it was like the old Maximum Attack things they used to do on PSO and PSU, where everyone works towards a kill goal, then everybody gets free shit, but apparently we cleared everything on the first one, and I don't remember ever getting shit.

Actually click the panels and look at the dates you musty snot rag

fuck off lillith

Wow, rude!

Still, thanks, I guess.

>The episode quests go all the way into august
>Hero comes out right as the episode 2 LQ comes back
easy 80 boys

i'm a girl

not unless I say you are

Ok but can you outparse all the tryhards on your teaMPA and blow the flute with your vagina?

We're all girls here, user! No stinky boys allowed!

My wife Xiera is super cute!

literally in episode 5

I'm okay with that
Yui a cute

What are the ways to get SG outside of casino/pvp?

pay us 4 dollars USD per sg scratch!
-sega

Buy cheap costumes and have them equipped on alts for 24 hours (online or offline) for 10sg, per character
Titles, if you haven't done all of them yet (ie. beat Phaleg as every class, S-rank solo PD, etc) give a good amount
Complete bingo on all characters
Log in to es for 1sg/day

When are level up quests coming back?

You have the best level up quest by far with the episode 2 lq

i have my doubts about the usefulness of chain trigger on gunner and feel like those points could've been used elsewhere, since it's always like this
>get a few seconds of stunned boss(if a boss is stunable at all, most of them are fast fuckers)
>during those few seconds you have to position yourself, activate CT and hope that you use a PA before the boss gets up or it was just wasted damage where you could've just spammed PA instead of building the chain
and don't get me started on a weak bullet combo with CT where you also need a few seconds for that setup with switching weapons, positioning etc.
how are you even supposed to use CT on a boss like dual banshees?
the 3 seconds that the banshee is stunned isn't nearly enough or worth it, just spam PAs and you'll get more out of it.
what am i doing wrong, i feel like those points would've better been used in that skill that increases PP recovery with normal attacks since i can spam PAs more efficiently?
yeah, bal rodos gets raped with CT and WB but all those slow bosses really aren't a problem even without it...

You're half right from my experience. I only ever really use CT during a LONG down phase like Deus' DPS check, Double's knockdown, or something like that. Any other time I find satellite aim spam to be infinitely more effective.
Maybe I'm a shitter I don't know but I'm pretty strong so it's fine for the most part.

Will she call me daddy when I rail her?

Dumb frogposter, just go to 20 - 30 and don't bother trying ridiculous chains on most bosses.

How can you guys be so bad at this game when you talk about it the whole day for years?

i find satellite aim to be ridiculously good against anything even without CT, just get close to the weak point and start spamming, close range from gunner and weak hit advance from ranger and boom everything's dead or taking ridiculous damage.

but the time that took me to activate CT, position myself and get the chain would've been more useful if i just spammed PAs.
a 20 or 30 chain is like 2x or 2.5x damage, and that really isn't that much better than just using PAs, that goes if everything goes perfectly and you don't get fucked while building the chain.

>Using Gu/Ra
Switch to Gu/Hu and have some real fun

I just started a week ago though

guhu doesn't have nice damage multipliers as gura has. yes, gura is about weak points and guhu is about constant damage but like i said, get close and spam satellite aim and get ridicules damage numbers.
why do you think guhu is more fun?
this is my first time playing as a ranged damage character so i really am still experimenting.

Gu/Hu can hit 100% crit which I don't believe Gu/Ra can do and on top of that like you said it's far more consistent. Fury stance, automate, etc. are beautiful things to have.

it's in moonrunes and i now about like 30% of the mechanics in the game, especially after a 2 year break and now i see some type-0 skills and i'm getting summoner eggs that are 7 and 8 stars and don't know what to do with them really except throwing them away, i also don't know how rare those are since i have a lot of them.

do you know how crits work in this game?
they aren't like a damage bonus but they just make you do the maximum damage your weapon is currently able to, and the differences range from 95% to 100%, so i consider that wasted skill points.

Have you even looked at gunner's skill tree or do you just not know gunners have a passive 8% damage boost total from TMG mastery and the crit ring you need to hit 100%? You should look into stuff before being an ass to people trying to help you.

it's 5% and that still doesn't add up to the damage a gura can do.
what do you think about high time and how does it work exactly, and what do you think about s roll up and that skill tree?
also, i wasn't trying to be mean user i appreciate the help...

>5%
the ring you need is 3% totaling to 8% crit damage

Let's make it simple. There's a reason anybody who plays gunner now runs Gu/Hu.
High time is something that needs to be maxed out as it's a big part of your damage during showtime.

uuurgh

It's you who doesn't understand crits
Normal hits vary between 70 and 90% of damage, not 95 to 100%

user I'm not trying to be mean but you really do suck at GU. Listen to what say. S-roll is complete trash after the nerf by the way.

To add to this you also need the stance up ring for GuHu. That gives pretty good multipliers.

You can do it user.

It's material storage going to be rental only?

Reminder that sluts should be deletd. Elves too.

Lolis can stay.

pay up :^)

i just started gunner and am like level 26, so yeah i know i suck at it.

>70 and 90%
normal attacks aren't your main damage dealers, also source on that 70-90% since i only read stuff from 90something to 100%.

>There's a reason anybody who plays gunner now runs Gu/Hu.
that''s because it's more constant damage while gura being high risk high reward since hitting weak spots isn't the easiest thing to do, and for normal enemies i'don't really need the biggest damage numbers to get along.

That one on the left is super lewd.

What is the point of screenshots at the end of boss fights anyway?

user you can do whatever you want but Gu/Hu really is the best way to go. Leave the ranger shit to the rangers it's not for gunner.

You just (re)started and you're already trying to argue builds?
Maybe you misunderstood as well when I said normal hits; I meant "non-critical hits"
And what are you gonna do when an enemy doesn't have a weakspot?

To give me an excuse to post my character.
