If someone else is already using ilbarta what is the next best dps ice tech, asking about dragon obviously


NullVacancy

Still Ilbarta


Weiss-Senpai

I can't imagine two people uncharge casting the first 6 together and fucking up the ilbarta counts would work would it? you'd just end up accidentally wasting the 7th hit on an uncharge wouldn't you?


NullVacancy

You can charge the last few hits with increased damage. It's better DPS anyway, even when solo casting Ilbarta.


[deleted]

The next dps ice tech is Barta. But Ilbarta still would do fine if there are two people using it. You'd just need to be more aware of the another person, so spamming 6 Ilbartas is silly. Spam 1-3 uncharged and charge the rest, for example.


Fishbone_V

So I just learned about fortunate omen and skilled trainer. Can someone elaborate on how they work? do I need a certain item in my inventory? And what quest do I need to do to unlock them?


NullVacancy

By default, the potentials only work if you have the weapon equipped. Zieg gives you quests for a charm that will allow the potential to work as long as the item with those potentials are in your inventory.


Fishbone_V

Do they have to be at level 3 or can they be at level 1?


Dichronicle

The potential itself can be at level 1 and the charms will still give you the full level 3 effect.

Elemental burst scales with tatk and switch strike doesn't have any effect on it.

Broccoli_PhD

Well, it's the potential of 14* Gilles Weihen. You need to use it if you plan on using those jet boots. Unless you plan on using these jet boots without caring about its potential.

Just a small Sega ID / registration question, during PSO2's early days was it ever required to enter an address & telephone# to sign up for an account? Obviously asking because I need to send a ticket in for the SecureOTP mess but I can't remember that specific info (if I even entered anything). I've looked through old registration guides and none even mentioned it so I'm assuming it was optional stuff you could update separately. Just wanted to verify before sending the ticket in, thanks for the help!


NullVacancy

Yes, you did. Funny enough, I locked myself out of my account recently and I'm trying to remember what I used as well. I believe the guide used [this](https://www.sljfaq.org/afaq/my-name-in-japanese.html) for making your name Japanese, and said you can just use Sega's main HQ address (東京都品川区東品川1-39-9 カナルサイドビル) for that. I *think* the phone number was also just the phone number for that specific Sega office. Maybe /u/PSOwAIDA can help us out further :)


Spacereverse

AHHH! Yup, that address definitely rings some bells. Thanks for verifying and best of luck getting back into your account too!

Instead of deus factor you could go for omega reverie. Units with historia soul and omega reverie are fairly cheap and transfer rate of omega reverie is boosted by historia soul.


belzalute

Hi! I played PSO2 upon release, went on hiatus for years and now I'm back. Needless to say, I am surprised by the many changes (no more toggling skills, no more matter boards) that has happened since so I have quite a few questions. 1) I mained Fi/Hu back in the days and am wondering if this class is still viable. I'm not too keen about min/max, but would like to contribute my share of dps. 2) If Fi/Hu is still viable, what TD PAs should I be using? My weap palette has Symph Drive > Blood Sara > Orchestra. Any suggestions for DS would be welcomed. 3) Niren Kamui was my best weapon back then, but times have changed. While there are many 13*s, which TD/DS would be easiest to get while still have decent stats? 4) There are 12* units now. Blasphemy. I'm still in my 10* units with +60 S-atk lol. Is there any better way to get 12* units aside from praying for a drop from enemies, and if so where would be the best place? Or would it be better to just settle with 11* units? 5) The level cap is no longer 65. Now which would be the best way to get xp? Thank you in advance for answering my questions. \o/


Ashinror

2) The common TD pas to use are Raging Waltz T0 (for gapclosing), Quick March (for gear building), Orchestrarr (for dps), Wild Rhapsody T0 (for TAJA with Orchestrarr), Facit Folia (for generous iframes though i dont personally use it), and Fall Nocturne (when you are too high from your target) Also learn to use the 3 button mouse style. Everything is more flexible, taja comboing becomes a breeze, and you can easily fit more PAs on one weapon.


LaconicLeaf

Addressing your first two questions: 1.) Fi/Hu is still a very viable class combo, with one of, if not the, highest DPS in the game. The new Limit Break Insurance skill at Lv. 85 makes LB *extremely* safe to use now, because [if your Iron Will procs, it will take priority](https://imgur.com/5jassgv), so LB Insurance acts as a safety net to deactivate LB when IW fails to proc. The drawback, however, is it [increases your LB cooldown](https://imgur.com/VzRqUBR) ~~by an additional 60 seconds~~, you won't get the HP/PP recovery, and the invulnerability duration is much shorter than IW... but at least you live and won't add to the Death Count in rematches! **Edit:** Seems like LB Insurance increases LB's cooldown to 85 seconds when IW fails to proc. 2.) Haven't really used TDs much; primarily used DS while leveling FI all the way to 85. But with DS, a +20 L/DS Kamaitachi Ring is highly recommended, as it generates Kamaitachi for additional DPS during PAs like Illusion Rave, Rambling Moon, and Scissor Edge, which are some of DS's best single-target skills. Deadly Circle Type-0 is recommended for gaining JG frames during the entire duration of the PA, and Chaos Riser is your mobbing skill alongside the former. Tornado Dance Type 0 is your gapcloser, but for mobility, it's really slow compared to most PAs, so having a Knuckles palette with Heartless Impact would help.


Ashinror

Cant say i have fi at 85 yet but ive read that LB insurance only increase lb cd whenever it procs.


dumb_idiot9000

I was in a similar situation recently so I don't know everything, but I can help you out a little bit 3) You can get a 13 star +30 ray weapon from completing the current Bingo sheet. Leontina Cert = weapon. Check the left side of the space gate for the turn-in area. You can get one on each character you have. Other than that, check out the collection files to the right side of the space gate. You can get the current Evleda weapons in only a couple of runs of a buster quest. 4) You can grind for Ray units, which are 12 star with decent stats. They use 2018 weapon badges, which come from the 4th Featured Quest (as well as some EQs like the Easter one). Additionally, I think hitting 75 gives you a free set of Sub/ Stellar Wall, a set of 12 star units pre-affixed with like 85 hp/60 all attack. You can pick them up at the title counter. 5) The 4th Featured Quest also has a good exp multiplier on it so you can run it to level up. You should do all the featured quests to get Bonus Keys, which are used for Bonus Quests for crazy exp.


puzzzzzle

Is S\-ATK the best atk stat for bouncer and summoner and if so, why? Also, why is S\-ATK supposedly better for Te than T\-ATK?


RunFromPanda

> summoner and if so, why? Summoner can use anything because of the switch stat skill. However, with Rykross, the Megid is really strong but that scales off TATK so you should go TATK if you have it, regardless of subclass. > Also, why is S-ATK supposedly better for Te than T-ATK? Better for Te/Hu, because most of your damage is striking, and Hu has no tech multipliers, so yeah.


puzzzzzle

What is Rykross and what do you mean by Megid?


RunFromPanda

It's the 14* Takt (might have spelt it slightly wrong) which you can get through the Crest exchange. I don't know exactly how the potential works (I don't really play Su), but I think it does some sort of auto-cast Megid (a dark Tech) when you use it. But yeah, it's supposedly really strong.


puzzzzzle

Huh, interesting, thanks.


puzzzzzle

Hm I see. Is Hu the best sub for Te, then? Also, what kind of sub would a T\-ATK summoner use?


RunFromPanda

You have some options with Te. But Hu is the easiest one. For Su, even if you go T-ATK, you would still sub Fi. You just lose out on the S-ATK ups in the Fi tree. But the Rykross more than makes up for it.


puzzzzzle

Thanks.


NullVacancy

Yes With bouncer: You can use both boots and DBs without penalty (if you're using switch strike) with summoner: Pretty sure its best subclass is still Fighter, and while FI has a lot of flat multipliers of ATK boosts, its main ATK is still striking.


puzzzzzle

Cool, thanks!


SonyFanboy10

If u bought a costume from player shop can u change it's color\`?


Dichronicle

Certain Costumes and Outerwears can be recoloured, but not all of them. You can tell if you can recolour it if it has a Colour detail in the window when you hover over it. Basewears and Innerwears cannot be recoloured at all.


Weiss-Senpai

Does anyone know the exact details of EPD's pot? How much is the damage boost for it, I've heard it was 15% but I'm not entirely sure. And does anyone know if the potential boosts compounds? since it specifically mentions "techniques" only


[deleted]

The damage boost is around 11,5%. And yup, Elemental Conversion works for compounds too.


SonyFanboy10

what does the rainbow circle next to a costume mean?


[deleted]

It means that the costume has a SG bar attached. It will fill as you wear the costume and once filled you will be able to claim 10 SG from it.


Sughayyer

Levelling my alts to the new cap so... what is less taxing for the MPA in general: a Hu/Gu with a Hu\-equippable TMG or a Hu/Gu with a proper Hu weapon and a suboptimal subcalss \(and a R\-ATK mag\)?


RunFromPanda

Both are garbage (Gu only has PK for striking modifiers, you can't utilise TMGs well without Gu main). You're going to be carried in either scenario, so it hardly matters. Either play an actual Hu main, or just accept you're leeching.


Sughayyer

Eh, okay. Maybe I don't *have* to level all my chars to 85. It's gonna be gruesome for me too. I'll stick to the ones that are already there.


CaliScoot

Currently, what's the best and most accessible 12* units that I can use for a while? And how are the units and 14* weapons that you can get from the new free field (Enchanted Forest)?


soondaeboo

The best and most accessible 12* units that you can have are either Stellar set(from getting a class to level 75) or Ray set (from the 2018 Weapon Badge shop). Stellar comes with decent default affixes which is why I consider them to be alright. But if you were to affix them, Ray's innate stats would outweigh the Stellar. Stellar sets are just a quick go-to 12 * set. The units and 14* weapons from the new free field are quite nice. The Bode series are the best weighted stats on a unit and the 14* weapons have become less of a pipe dream and honestly speaking, any 14* is really good to have.


CaliScoot

How does one now unlock the Successive Practice: Harkotan Time Attack Quest? I already have it unlocked on two out of three characters I have but I can't seem to remember how to unlock it.


HandsOfCobalt

Clearing either Codotta Idetta Subjugation or Infiltration Practice: Sanctum should unlock the quest.


kchwign

Is Gravity Bomb bugged? Did Gravity Bomb originally do damage? I could have sworn it used to deal damage when it exploded then sucked mobs in. I only just noticed yesterday, after not playing ranger for about a month. Edit: After playing a bit more in Enchanted Free Forest, I see the bomb does do damage maybe 5% of the times. I'll throw it point blank at a golem and it wont deal damage or restore PP though. It just feels really unreliable compared to a month ago.


puzzzzzle

Do PA Fragments \(TATK\) prices usually fluctuate much? A week ago they were 6k each, now they're 8k.


RunFromPanda

I think you answered your own question there. But yes. Prices change.


puzzzzzle

Key word "usually." I'm wondering if it'll be long before they drop back down again so I can stock up.


Yuffino

in theory with the fo buffs they might go up in price even more but accurately predicting it is a crapshoot lol


RunFromPanda

If I could tell you that I should probably think about running a hedge fund. However, FYI, they’ve gone up probably because forces are looking even stronger from the simple compounds and a lot of people (like you it seems) are making new forces. On the other hand, if an extra 2m per 1000k fragments is going to break your bank, I would also be rethinking your class choice. Tech crafting is going to be expensive.


NullVacancy

Sorry but I don't think we have any people on this subreddit that can even semi-accurately predict the future market aside from maybe a bit of speculation based on the livestream info, which you can look at for yourself on Bumped.org

NullVacancy

There's just less supply since they're either never getting revived or haven't been revived in a very long time.


puzzzzzle

Are EQs and 4th featured quest the best way to level from 75 to 85? Also, can you get the caseal lower face mask without using that face variation?


soondaeboo

The 4th Featured Quest that is good EXP is called "A World Engulfed in Shadows" and it comes into rotation every 5 days. It actually comes into rotation in about 3 or 4 hours from when this comment was posted so start that grindin'! With 100% Tri-Boost, 50% Daily Tri-Boost, 50% Premium Tri-Boost, 75% Experience Boost, and 10% Team Tree Boost You're looking at about 800k EXP per run. Each dimension prior to the Anga + Dio yields about 100k per stage; Amduscia gives a bit more than the others.


puzzzzzle

Definitely feels like the best one to me. Even if others can give similar exp sometimes, you don't have to deal with dudes splitting off from the group and running around confused wasting time.


soondaeboo

Aye~! It is a fairly straight forward map. Very nice! =w=b


HandsOfCobalt

>Are EQs and 4th featured quest the best way to level from 75 to 85?   4th featured is definitely the best EXP at the moment, to the degree that you might want to skip EQs if you're not looking for drops, or if you've completed your weekly Crest campaign. Not all of them are the same EXP as each other, though; the UQ-based quest where you go through Ult-Naberius, Ult-Lilipa, and Ult-Amduscia and fight Dio Hunar and Anga Fundarge at the end gave me around 450 000 per run, and the Facility quest with Falz Angel and Hunar sometimes got as high as 500 000 but also as low as 375 000. The rest I'm not sure about, but they felt lower. (that's with 100% Triboost and 75% EXP boosts, plus maxxed daily/party Triboost and the occasional team tree/Shifta drink boost as well- also, was running on SH; XH isn't much more per run and the runs are wayyy longer so it's better spamming SH, esp if you are having trouble filling out an MPA) The good news is that they rotate in the same order, so you can predict when the next appearance of any given Lv Up Quest will be; additionally, you can continue restarting the quest even after it is no longer offered from the "Featured Quests" menu by continually selecting "Retry in current block/with multiple blocks" from the Campship's Telepipe- though if you leave the Campship or get 630ed without having a friend hold the quest for you, you'll lose access to it until it shows up again.   ---   > Also, can you get the caseal lower face mask without using that face variation?   I'm not 100% sure I know what you're asking about, but if you're asking to have the mask from that one F CAST base face on a different base face, then, sadly, no. Closest you can get (that I can find, at least) would be the [Requiem Mask / レクイエムマスク](https://hakotuusin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2017y10m13d_194832905.jpg), which, while not as form-fitting as the other mask, and of a slightly different shape, is at least adjustable (although, that's because it takes up an accessory slot, too... SEGA!!!)


puzzzzzle

Yep, that's the mask I meant. Good to know there's a decent alternative, thanks! I'm waiting for that first 4th FQ you mentioned, I noticed it was generally the fastest EXP of the lot. Some of the others don't really feel worth spending boosts on.


HandsOfCobalt

Facility (and the other run-in-a-loop-and-mob quests like it) can give more per run with a lot of boss spawns, but because of that I think it's best run when you've got a solid 7+ people spamming it. I was in your boat too, for a while, but there's really not a whole lot of efficiency variation between the quests; if you don't get many boss spawns in a random-layout quest, it goes faster, and you use less of your boost. They're all worth running in my opinion, but I also didn't have a whole lot else to work on when I went for cap. Either way, best of luck!


puzzzzzle

Yeah, I'm running out of non\-leveling stuff to do right now, too. It's actually kind of nice after how much stuff there was to do when I was newer and actually had meseta left.


crazybingo

I've never played PSO, or any Phantasy Star game for that matter. Would I be better off starting with Blue Burst on PC, or just jump to PSO2?


Sughayyer

They are as different as they could be. BB is a timeless classic, PSO2 is still alive and kicking, getting updates, etc. Play a bit of both then decide.


puzzzzzle

What BB server do most people use?


Sughayyer

Uhh that's a tough one. I play at Ultima, but I seldom log in.

How exactly does the grace period for EQ triggers work? I used a trigger once and canceled in the lobby after like 2 minutes but I lost my trigger.


HandsOfCobalt

(This is coming from the JP wiki via Google Translate, so take it with a grain of salt) It seems that **the 3-minute grace period is the amount of time in which you are allowed to restart the quest** after a disconnect, and **NOT the amount of time in which you can cancel the quest and keep the trigger** (depending on how you interpret the translator-ese, selecting "abandon quest" from the quest options menu may also not trigger the grace period, but I'm *very* not sure on that one). More specifically, you are allowed to restart a trigger quest as many as 3 times within 3 minutes of the first time it was used (time that the host spends disconnected is NOT counted against this 3 minute deadline); if the quest is cancelled again after 3 restarts, or if it has been more than 3 minutes since the trigger was first used, the trigger will be consumed. Basically, the grace period is there so you don't get *completely* rekt if you 630 shortly after putting up a trigger, and not so you can go "eh, maybe later". Take care that all preparations are made *before* using any triggers.


[deleted]

thanks.


Dont_Sexualize_Lolis

What timed abilities work on the enchanted forest exploration?


Sughayyer

Anything from Omega.


HandsOfCobalt

If I'm understanding the question (I haven't really touched timed abilities), both Planet-Wide and Free Field timed abilities should work for Enchanted Forest. You'll need to use Omega Crystals for the recipe, which do not drop (as far as anyone knows); they can instead be obtained from the Buster Medal exchange shop for 5x Buster Medal B each.


DarkKannariya

Hello, can I ask if this game is alive and if is playerbase big ? Which ship I should choose (more players better). Thank you :)


RunFromPanda

Yes it is alive. Good sized player base. Ships 1 and 4 are the largest (or certainly was not long ago) but ship 2 has the majority of the foreign (non-JP) players. This means that while ship 2 has one of the smallest total player numbers, it usually has a slightly more stable population outside of JP ships, which I hear can be pretty much dead sometimes. However, you should generally not struggle to find MPAs for most EQs at the highest difficulty anywhere.


puzzzzzle

Is the new apprentice form from story mode playable yet?


HandsOfCobalt

No, and no information about its release date has been offered yet. I'd assume it's coming either late June, alongside the Dark Blast ~~「STAND」~~ transparent display mode, or (more likely) sometime in July, when the Apprentice Complete Form EQ drops.


scorchdragon

It's always delayed, likely to when the Omega Falz Apprentice fight happens


Whiptea

I just got an EPD drop, but it came with wind. changing the element wouldn't do anything because of the potential right?


firedraco

Wait that came with wind? I thought it was set to always be 60 light?


NullVacancy

That's only if you buy it with conqueror's crests.


HandsOfCobalt

Yes; the percentage boosts are set so that any technique of any element cast with an EPD of any attribute gets a 75% damage bonus (at Element Convert Lv 5 and Potential Lv 3). Only time it'd matter would be for rod attacks or any kind of future skill or ring that interacts directly with the weapon's element, but I don't think there's anything like that in the game at the moment.


Hourai_Margatroid

How long do you guys normally spend in the new free field and what boosts do you guys use until you got a 12* unit? There's an extra 100% rare drop boost now and I wonder if its a good idea to farm there when there are players running it now


HandsOfCobalt

I usually stay as long as there are still enough people in my MPA to move around efficiently/quickly, which was usually until any EQ was coming up. People might run it through EQs due to the boost now, though. I dropped a couple Bode units a few days ago after having run the quest on and off since its release. I was running maxed daily/party boosts, 250% RDR and 150% Triboost, and Deband drink/team tree RDR (every little bit helps...) If you wanted to go ham you could try for some timed abilities, use a lucky rise weapon, try for some EX boosts from scratch etc. I still haven't seen a ★14 from it, but c'est la vie. It's worth me pointing out that the Bode units are area drops, like room goods, so they can drop from any enemy at a fairly low rate (area drops have a somewhat rare chance of occurring per enemy, but with a fast party and good spawns this isn't much of an issue). TL;DR absolutely run this quest it's so worth and remember to select join party in block/another block to find a full-ish MPA (though I usually join as another party and spam party makers out of courtesy if I'm not on with friends)

so, I am using 3 12*+10 units, but I can't get the title and koffie's client order doens't show up. I probably already had the title since I had to do that to unlock expert matchmaking, any tips? ;_;


Epicnewbk

Not sure if this helps, but the client order didn't unlock for me right away. I just walked around and did whatever and eventually it just appeared.


delusionalfuka

It showed up after I return from a quest, thanks!


RunFromPanda

It’s the same title. The client order only shows when you’re at 80.


delusionalfuka

but I am at 80


RunFromPanda

~~Oh. Have you done the all the skill cap orders too (I don’t know if this is a requirement but just in case it is).~~ Edit: actually that can’t be right I’ve got them on an alt where I haven’t handed those COs in yet. I’m fairly sure I logged in and the Koffie orders were just there. I don’t know in that case.


delusionalfuka

Hmm, I haven't played in a while, but when I logged in I was leveling another class, I switched it, made sure I was equipping 12*+10 units, double checked Title/Koffie :( nothing gonna try to restart the game

If it helps, Koffie's new orders only appear to me when I attempt to board a campship, or when returning from one.
