![[PSO2:NGS] Things I Wish I Knew Before Starting New Genesis](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/S2kwtnyFq5I/mqdefault.jpg)
at the rate that levels and gear are progressing, a part of me hopes that we'll hit a power cap and future gearing will instead be focused on new playstyles rather than straight upgrades
The level progress is not as bad as it looks, yes they bloat level numbers, but stats you gained since lv75 update is actually quite limited compared to pre lv75 era. Currently we are at lv85, but if we use old growth formula, our current stats is between lv76 and lv77, which is okay to me.
But yes, they are updating gears too often. 11 star should not come until June, but they pushed it to April...
I don't gear chase. I don't rush to upgrade if my current gear is close to max level. I wait for the gear to come to me. The Einea armors came out and shortly after the Vio Vida versions came out. There's a definite balance to being competitive and not blowing resources.
Firstly happy birthday Krono!
I really enjoy video series like this, sometimes I am doing PSE farms and listrning to such chilled content feels just perfect.
For augment transfer, I think it will actually be healthier for the market, if SEGA does it correctly. There are players who do not want to use expensive augments on their gear, because they worry about their gear can expire at any time. Augment transfer pass actually creates more demand because say what if you can augment transfer one piece of gear say every month, I will use BiS augments on that piece of gear without worrying too much. Replacing one piece of gear from budget augments to BiS augments can already close a gap for one generation of weapon upgrade, so I am positive on this type of contents.
For now, Abandac is no longer BiS when they introduced Glan Gigas Maste, but it will be close to BiS with much more affordable cost and if we have new augments from updated Leciel, it could be BiS again. And it is possible for them to release say Lux Halphinale LC with -0.5% potency compared to regular Lux Halphinale from the new Leceil Exploration.
On any DF contents, BiS could be fixa wix instead of fatale because you are always doing weak damage. Fixa wix lose to fatale as your weak point hit % goes lower. Yes fatale is much more versatile but if players, especially on budget, somehow end up with high fixa wix, it is not something to look down upon.
We should be seeing Glan Gigas, Lux Halphi, and Highkvar Domina LC this coming Leciel expansion
Happy Birthday Krono! Well thanks for the thoughtful video, Imma start getting the goal of getting better gear since they announced that augment transfer being possible lol.
Even if the augment transfer is only 1 at a time, or expensive, I will still take it just for the fact *you have an augment or augments that's essentially evergreen if/when something is better to replace it/them comes out.* Now, Lux Halphinale is a little bit easier( I know I'm using that a bit loosely) to get ever since they eased the weekly restrictions on the aegis turn ins. But having to redo the entire process of Lux Halphi can get annoying when every gear cycle you gotta do it over, and over, and over, and over again, I can only imagine Glan Gigas Maste.
This gear cycle(Reyaar, and Einea armors), just to try and get Lux to stick, I basically had to empty my meseta three times over(In total I had to spend almost if not close to 300mil meseta just to *try*), and that was with augment protections. I'm probably an extreme outlier but for Glan Gigas I'm either just gonna use that capsule as an LC version for if/when we get that and call it a day and just sell the non LCs to bank out on em, or if I happen to have any and there's an affix boost week then I'll use em and try to gamba.
Also, happy belated birthday
This is SEGA we're talking about. There is a non-zero chance they make it stupidly difficult, involve SG in large amounts, or even go for the AC support scratch to house the transfer. Or any combination of those. We'll see what they do, no sense in hyping yourself up or dooming over it either.
Happy Birthday Krono, I always appreciate the down to earth takes and analysis.
wait wtf? yestarday was my birthday
also, happy birthday!
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts, Krono!
Before the headline, I had said in our alliance that they would drop 11star shadow for Dalion, but personally I wouldn't have expected it until June.
x-ship-play has been requested often enough lately, at least for Global, since Global only has a fraction of the players JP has.
It would have been nice if SEGA had said that the 11 stars would be a reward for 50 kills for the class, a guaranteed drop. We know how often flugel dropped when it came out, almost never.
With the upcoming augment transfers, I think it will be easier than in the base game. We can drop the latest high-end capsules, transfer everything and then swap it with one of the latest high-end and then transfer it back to the next weapon.
When I think that I need over 1200 aegis souls for lux halphinale to be able to save on weapon and units with 10 per part, it's reason enough for them to introduce transfers.
The other loot for Dalion would be nice if it would drop high-end capsules and the new purple in may mainly gigas stat 4 and rarely gigas masts.
Happy birthday! (Im late)
for me its LC augs ONLY unless i get a random S aug or something until they add augment transfer. the jump just isnt big enough to justify with the speed of new weapons + i like trying out new pots
Did you just say “There's a chance”?! I am sorry, I've heard something similar when they spoke of the fixa upgrading system, having a chance where some or perhaps all Augments being destroyed during an Augment transfer sounds genuinely terrifying to me and other altaholics.
We need Zeig the new wingard could’ve had a potential that involved both flugard and the new debuff and then mats from the fight to grind
I have zero clue as to how Sega will do Gear in the future but in regard to Aug Transfer. It's either going to be similar to Base or something more streamline rather than taking 3 Months per 3 Units.
I think any Updates relating to Gear will just be the usual stuff Sega has been doing for years. However, having Luciel being Universal Ship based does bring into question of, if other current content will also be like so.
(This is what's more realistic.)
Personally... At least for Gear. There should be an NGS Gear Collection Folder. Which requires players to Farm or to Craft weapons and units. The first time a player obtains the weapon or unit. The Collection Folder will codify it and give you access to it's Weapon/Unit Camo version that is fully Color Customizable. You still need to farm or craft the Stat Gear and most Camo are unlocked in Sets/Series. Both Stat Gear and Camo are trade able in the Player Shop but trading items do not unlock anything in the Collection Folder. All UQ based Collections can be filled by any UA over time. The higher the difficulty/level, the more exp the Collection gains. This is not affected by any Tri Boosters etc.
Augment Overhaul?... DPS is the only Aug type that matters in NGS. I hope there are better multi stat Augs on top of DPS that amplify other Stats during combat. Without lowering total DPS.
I don't like Fixas being a glorified Augment. It can be its own major core mechanic with a Fixa Drive (energy meter) that layers on top of the normal combat for weapons. Think of Devil Trigger in Devil May Cry 5. It can be even more crazy than this.
I guess the Mag Device can just be a Cosmetic Flashlight for now, in NGS. But it doesn't need to copy how Base did it. The Mag Device can be a conduit to interact with new AIS Units, once we get those, and allow for us to summon our customized AIS Unit in the open world/dungeons.
Finally... Elemental Damage for Weapons should be a Weapon Craft Modification for all weapons rather than a preset for weapons that are mainly seasonal. We can call it "Elemental Photonic Crystals" that drop from all elemental enemies by 50% (change able). "A Fire Enemy drops Fire Crystals." This also goes well for Elemental Units to gain Elemental Damage Absorption and Elemental Status Resistance.
(Augment Craft still needs a major update right now. It's still too many updates behind and the list is so small compared to the 1k+ different Augs I cannot do anything with. When LC Augs are just better for the average build.)

Happy birthday :) Save some cake for me! jk o: Hope you enjoy your time today n.n
Dunno why, but why I think that casual hip blades camo would look better with this look, than “heroic”on the back ones?
Agree a new weapon should be different we could’ve gotten a legendary camo but designs either upscale base but not a reskin of ngs weapons
If you're not farming meseta in Dext Base you're doing it wrong, just fyi
