hopefully the servers are stable enough to hit 3 EQ periods for the dreamcast mag

I wandered in here after reading that the game is finally coming stateside.

How do I get a Dreamcast MAG? :ohdear:

E: I know this probably isn't known for the NA version yet, but does the Japanese version allow you to use one account across multiple platforms? Like starting on Xbox then picking up the same character on PC?

Looking at the settings, you can change voice, text, and language to either English or Japanese. Other players can see which language you have selected. Each option is individual so you can play with Japanese VA if you wind up hating the English voices.

5 text sizes (maybe only 2 available to One S?): Small, middle, 4k small, 4k middle, and 4k large. That is middle, not medium.

All the prerendered videos look to be the same quality as the PC releases. The game is just under 70GB in size.

Which ship are we all gonna play on? Six options in the list at the moment.

1 - Feoh
2 - Ur
3 - Thon
4 - Ansur
5 - Laguz
6 - Kenaz

Be forewarned: if you choose Getting Started on the ship select screen, it will put your new character on Feoh!

I vote #2 - Ur, because its funny.

Hero can't be used AS a subclass, but can it still be used WITH a subclass?

My first/beta character is currently Br/Hu, going to be Br/Ph when available.

My 2nd, once able, will her Hero and whatever subclass it wants if possible.

My 3rd, I guess something that uses Techs? I like the concept of Phantom a lot, but same with Summoner and Etoile.

The thing is, is that people are comparing the launch of this new game, to entering PSO2JP years in where cosmetics were dead and outdated and thus were immensely expensive. Right now, NA is just now launching. It doesn't have that history yet, so the parts in that track aren't old and outdated yet. They aren't limited supply; until we know what's in the AC scratch, they're the only supply. If this mission pass was being applied to JP, then yeah that'd be cool. People would be getting access to old and outdated items they might want. But NA players aren't getting old items. They're getting new items. Now there's just a bunch of cosmetics locked behind premium/mission pass.

Are the battlepass rewards guaranteed for a given tier, like in Fortnite or whatever? Because even paid, that's much better than a "free" scratchoff ticket with a random chance at a given pool of items.

Full disclosure I might be misunderstanding how it works.

Preface with: I don't know if any of this matters before level cap.

Is there any resource with info on the following?

Grinding weapons - What is it? Like enhancing weapons? Which weapons should I grind? How do I know which are good/bad?

Story - I haven't really encountered any yet, I've just been doing client orders and the various ARKS missions. Is this OK? Its kind of hard to figure out where I am.

Mag - As a Braver, I want a DEX mag, yeah? I was misinformed initially and have like 20 levels in Melee attack, but the rest so far are in Dex. Is that OK? I'm using Katanas

Gear - I've noticed gear doesn't have the same defenses. If I have one piece of gear with say 20 Tech Def, and have another with 15 Melee Def, they can go in the same slot, how do I know which is "better"? Is one better?

Gear2 - Should I have 3 different weapons (katana/bow/gunblade) equipped, or just all Katanas? If all katanas, what are the differences between different weapons of the same type and power?

I fed my MAG a bunch of S-Atk items (it's like S-Atk level 30) before I found out that as a Braver Dex was more appropriate.

Is it worth it to try and reset the MAG if I'm using Katanas? Or should I just keep on adding Dex now? It's like 85 Dex/30 S-Atk.

Also at character level 39 should I just be selling all of the gear I can't use? I've got a decent number of items in storage that I hadn't sold because the game prompted me to reconsider when trying to sell them, but if they're "rare but low level" is there a better use for them?

I kinda wish I'd made a robot now.

Things I don't understand at level 40:

Mashing weapons together to improve one

Making rings

How to tell at a glance which of the 5 identically named pieces of gear is better

Whether or not to ID the unidentified items I find (of types I don't use) or just sell them

What the different kinds of missions are and when to pick a given type.

I've kind of just been randomly doing poo poo and making levels go up.

Should I bother making +X weapons while leveling, or just wait until I hit max level? Not having any problems with enemies so far.

Also, my MAG has ~20 levels in Melee Atk, when as a Katana Braver I want all Dex. It has about 84 levels in Dex. Would it be cheaper to buy the items needed to downlevel its Melee Atk, or to buy a new MAG entirely?

I did not know about TPS. Also I kiiiiiinda hosed up. I made 3 characters on one server without realizing that the character limit is global, because I also did not realize one character can change to any class. So now I gotta wait 24 hours for one of my characters to delete. This system is kind of clunky as hell.

Oh well, live and learn.

I played a hunter and a ranger and I don't mind the normal movement system for my hunter, but I would prefer TPS and no lock-on for the ranger all the way. Also would have preferred to get a Partisan weapon from the very start as a hunter but nooooo, gotta use the weird wired fist weapons. Now I gotta figure out how to get a photon art to equip with the partisan I had to probably overpay for. Wheeeeeee

DONT DELETE YOUR CHARACTER

It deletes the slot that character is occupying as well.
