    Te/Et asking for a tip

    I'm DETERMINED to clear HTPD with Te/Et. Can anyone give me advice other than "getting a good teammate"?

    I feel like there's more of Techter than wacking Sodam with a wand but I don't know what it is. I always cast Zanverse for my team, Shifta/Deband them. I use Ramegid zero for extra damage. I occasionally use Narbata zero for blocking but I'm still not good at it, should i just use sidestep instead??

    I really want to use fused technique but would that be a DPS loss when compare to just providing zanverse to my team??

    Testing damage with rockbear my damage is peaked at 6M without casting Zanverse But when I start using zanverse it dropped down to around 4M (and probably lower in the real fight) I feel like my lack of damage is hindering my team so much.

    With how old the game is its really difficult to find guide or tips about Techter on the internet. So I'll just ask all the vets here.

    Weekly Game Questions and Help Thread + Megathread Listing

    Welcome to this special Weekly Game Questions and Help Thread.

    Weekly Game Questions and Help Thread

    Greetings all new, returning, and existing ARKS defenders!

    The "Weekly Game Questions and Help Thread" thread is posted every Wednesday on this subreddit for all your PSO2:NGS-related questions, technical support needs and general help requests. This is the place to ask any question, no matter how simple, obscure or repeatedly asked.

    New to NGS?

    The official website has an overview for new players as well as a game guide. Make sure to use this obscure drop-down menu if you're on mobile to access more pages.

    If you like watching a video, SEGA recently released a new trailer for the game that gives a nice overview. It can be found in this video at 31:54.

    Please check out the resources below:

    If you are struggling to get assistance here, or if you are needing help from community developers (for translation plugins, the Tweaker, Telepipe Proxy) in a live* manner, join the Phantasy Star Fleet Discord server. *(Please read and follow the server rules. Live does not mean instant.)

    Please start your question with "Global:" or "JP:" to better differentiate what region you are seeking help for.

    Megathreads

    /r/PSO2 has several Megathreads that are posted on a schedule or as major events such as NGS Headlines occur. Below are links to these.

    On New Reddit, you can also look at this collection!

    Persona Omega outfit?

    Did they ever introduce the Omega version of Persona?

    I was disappointed when the Omega dark falz outfits came out but persona wasn't among them

    I'd love to have his mask but with the blue Omega visor.

    Can you get the DeAlma attire in NGS or is it only in OG?

    Title. I came back to PSO2 after a loooooong break (as in stopped just a bit after Xbox release) and have been grinding through the original story as well as getting myself settled in NGS.

    Looking through all the scratch cards and stuff, I really like Alma’s outfit, but I only see it only on the SG Rewind card in OG and can’t find it anywhere in NGS. Is it possible to get it on a scratch card or off the market in NGS? Or am I stuck to grinding millions of meseta for it in OG? I ask because I recently pulled a few outerwears from the SG Rewind card in OG, then when I logged into NGS and looked at my PSO2 inventory, it looked like those outfits had updated NGS versions as well.

    EDIT: Also if anyone happens to know, I have the same question regarding Harriette’s Battlewear

    How fast is the protagonist.

    Not a help or a question of a game. I'm just curious if their like Massively FTL or infinite speed in terms of the game and speed.

    Personal Final Battle: Space-Time Interstice (Sodam Depth100) video records (12 classes)

    https://preview.redd.it/go0prs0qtixd1.jpg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=da997ca75069f4a781e8bdc3b5d7289963a70bef

    (Playlist here)

    In fact this is a repost. The main reason I did this is that I feel that as a "new" player who has been struggled with sodam for 2 years, it is difficult for me to continue to make self-breakthroughs, so I decided to take a break and reorganize the past records after completing Fighter/Luster run without Unit/Mag/Drink/Any other buffs.

    I started playing classic PSO2 at the beginning of 2022, and cleared Depth100 and HTPD (Twisted with Hatred) for the first time at the end of 2023. Then at the end of 2023, in order to personally experience the difference between JP and GL (NA), I went to JP with the help of Tweaker.

    I personally think that PSO2's endgame contents are, like many Japanese game manufacturers, not designed for most players. It may be more boring than interesting. But for the small number of hardcore players who are really willing to improve themselves, it may not be that bad. Sodam is a simple but also great rival that is quite well designed. This may be one of the reasons why I insist on dueling Sodam more than 300 times.

    Btw thanks SEGA fixed the ZV bug and hope they will bring back more contents which players are lacking of. (...Well... I have been desperate for a long time though )

    Effect correction stat?

    New(ish?) player asking what is probably a stupid question, but it’s been bothering me;

    Levelling units shows a stat called Effect Correction. When inspecting the unit it shows next to the enhancement level as a percentage.

    What does that stat do? Because if it’s just how much the stats on the unit have increased over base due to enhancement, the math don’t match between base values and what the unit says it gives

    It probably does nothing, or is a legacy stat like I’ve been told dex is, but if anyone knows either way?

    How do you save Weapon Palettes?

    Still very new to PSO2, but I've been enjoying it. So far I've been switching between Techter (my main I guess), Force, and Summoner, but I've had to change the weapon palette everytime. I've seen you can save loadouts at the class NPC, but it looks like it just saves your equipment, not the weapon palette.

    Any helpful tips?

    Cel shading is nice

    i just fond out that cel shading on accessories is very good, it make the color more vibrant and more noticeable when compare with non cel shading

    Class recommendation

    So I have been thinking of making a new character to play PSO2. But I will like to change up how I play. With a new class. But I have no clue what to play as. Since I have played fighter, gunner and hero so any suggestions. Also most of my time I play solo. Edit: Also any suggestions on what races I should do.
