Weird hill to die on.

@ToF-Wolfenstein said in Meseta Sellers in game (Ship 02):

A simple word filter shouldn't be hard to add...... It might not be the solution to the core problem but it would help the playerbase. I think there is no excuse considering their profits with the game.

Okay, so where's your breakdown of how SEGA spends their money? Do you have access to this information? This is a bit of a reach, mate.

This is a lot of spam.

Note down any Player ID that interacts with you from the Alliance. Report their Xbox accounts and submit a ticket to PSO2 support. No sympathy for folks losing their account if they're being toxic.

How are my videos misleading on this topic? I've shown in multiple videos how you can access the 3 day shop tickets through FUN scratch and the odds in relation to getting one of those tickets.

Sure, some of my early guides referenced the JP version while we did not have access to the NA version between betas and also didn't know exactly what we were getting in the Open Beta. But since that time and when I became aware of how content was beginning to roll out, a high majority of my guides purely use the NA version.

Of course, I've made content based on the beta during the beta, that's how content creation works. We make content as the content comes out. Luckily, the NA version has not changed anything that has been implemented since the beta, so any of those functions are still relevant.

Especially, considering the manual on this website lays this information out: https://pso2.com/manual/communication/myshop. And not forgetting that there is a swath of information on this topic across the web, you really aren't looking hard enough.

So, you are spreading misinformation yourself and making assumptions that make you look like an ass. This thread ain't it, my dude.

@Manethradon said in Leveling Guide for PSO2:

@AnamanaAU Do you want to pay them or just assume people should use their knowledge to your benefit for free?

What are you talking about?

Yeah, dude. They will violate TOS, don't risk it. Regardless of rating, they are still likely to get you banned as symbol arts don't fall into the bounds of PSO2 rating.

Friend Avatars or FAs (Partners on JP) are AI copies of your character at the time of registration. These are the same as Free Avatars, which are Friend Avatars for non-friended players. This guide goes over the optimal way to set them up.

Best Class Combos:

• Te/Fo – Healing / Buffing / DPS
• Te/Ra – Healing / Buffing / Weak Bullets
• Su/X – Healing / Buffing / Pet Use (High Activity)

Summoners Notes:

• FA will summon the lowest number pet in the weapon palette
• Highest attack rate vs other Classes as a FA
• However, will not switch to another pet when the pet dies. Instead it will flail its harmonizer
• You can counter this by putting techs in the subpalette
• Personality of pets and most candies is unused. Pancakes being the exception.
• Attack power is determined by the level of the character

General Notes:

• You can only register one FA per ship. So, if you go to register a FA on a second character, it will overwrite the original character’s registration.
• FAs can be called in a block regardless of 190p limit. However, they will take note of Quest player cap and cannot be called if a quest is at the maximum 12 players. As such, they can also consume the player count of quests, so be aware of this when joining quests on higher difficulties where spots in quests are coveted.
• HP is boosted 7 times
• The PP pool is infinite
• FAs do not recognize if they have status abnormalities (non-elemental) and will not use Anti or Sol Atomizers on themselves
• FAs do not take damage from traps or gimmicks on the field. However, pets will.
• Damage works off a different calculation compared to playing it yourself. Damage tends to be lower and Non-Player Partners damage is terrible.
• Perfect attack, dodge, perfect block, and weapon action are not used.
• Class Boosts are disabled
• When summoned, FAs will be scaled down to your current level
• If you have not unlocked subclasses, then all FA subclass levels will be at level 1.
• PAs and Techs are fixed at level 1.
• FA will use Techs registered in all palettes regardless of weapon type, however when using a tech weapon they will only use techs unless there are no techs registered, then they will use the striking attack.
• FAs will charge most Techs to max and sometimes will fire them off at max charge without charging
• Most PAs that increase damage or number of hits are used without mashing
• Jet Boots are not used to their potential, as FAs will not use the weapon action
• FAs will only use items registered in the subpalette and will spawn with a maximum of those items, regardless of amount on hand at registration. This can be reset by recalling the FA at the Gateway Ship after using a Telepipe.
• Boost, buff and items bought with AC will not be used by the FP
• Auto words work with FPs

Gear:

• FA will use Weapons 1-6 and will be unarmed if no weapons are registered
• FA will prioritise weapon #1, but will prioritise others as follows:
• Melee weapon > Gunblade (sword mode) > Range weapon, Gunblade (gun mode) > Melee weapon
• If multiple of one type of weapon are registered, it will always choose the lower number in the registered weapon list
• If a weapon is in the air, the FA may change to a ranged weapon.
• Weapon rarity, weapon attack power, enhancement value, attribute value, potential, crafting status changes are not reflected.
• In terms of Damage ranking: rod> talis> wand> jet boots >> other Melee / Range weapons
• Skill Rings are disabled, although some will work when applying onto a unit in the future
• FAs are unaffected by stats on units.
• However, you can boost stats with Attack boost and Stamina affixes.

Sub-Palette:

• Book 01 is used, potentially focusing on Page 01 primarily.
• Resta, Anti, PB, Shifta, Deband, Sol Atomizer, Star Atomizer
• Items are more reliable than using techs
• Stances are inconsistent as the FA will cycle them randomly

Recommended PAs and Techs:

• Ragrants – Damage & Panic Status, good with Light mastery
• Na / Gigrants – Short range, Can hitstun and potentially slow enemies
• Razan – Knockdown tech
• Ilzan – Short range, but can vacuum enemies together and knockdown
• Barta / Gibarta – Can freeze enemies, perfect range when paired with Lonely Soul personality
• Sabarta – Good with Ice Mastery, smaller AoE, but can freeze smaller targets
• Ilmegid – Does wide range AOE, can seek out enemies
• Ilfoie – Hard hitting AOE, 1-2 second cast
• Zanverse – Ground buff circle that boost damage
• Megiverse – Allows FA to heal while damaging

Other PAs, Techs & Skills to consider:

• Weak Bullet (Skill): FAs will use these if you have a Rifle with Weak Bullet on your Subpalette. However, they fire randomly and can cancel out other players WB. Do not bring a FA with this if you have a player covering this role.
• Cluster Shot & Rocket Rodeo: Big damage, but low use
• Satellite Cannon: FA will use half charged. Low range, low use.
• Desperado Dance: Great PA, never used as FAs tend to use regular shots
• Unspoken Barbarity: This is a Katana AOE Stun. Can be useful if the FA uses it.
• IlBarta: Decent damage, can help stack Ilbarta damage multiplier debuff. FA can cancel out the finisher.
• Nafoie: Used quickly, decent damage, leaves fire on the floor.
• Namegid: Good damage, but charge locks the FA

Mag Setup:

• FAs are unaffected by Mag Stats
• Appearance, Trigger Actions, Auto Actions and PBs will stay as registered. To update, reapply registration of FP.
• Energy is always at 100% and will not decrease
• Cetus Proi for AoE PP Regen
• HP Recovery A or B for Trigger Actions
• Megid or Grants for Attack
• If equipped with a Mag that has a PB, it will activate and chain the PB without needing to be registered to the subpalette

What to do before registering:

• Have you set the right class & subclass?
• Are the correct skill trees selected?
• Is Subpalette Book 01, Page 01 selected?
• Have you registered skills, techs and items into the subpalette?
• Have you registered the correct weapons into palettes 1-6?
• Have you got a Pet set if you’re a Summoner?
• Have you removed any inappropriate weapons?
• Are the items on the subpalette in your inventory?
• Is your fashion set? Weapon Camo?
• Have you selected the right Attribute & Title?
• Consider saving a loadout for your FA with the Class Consultant
• Consider listing the build in the FA description
• If this all checks out, you’re good to go!

Right now, we only know the history of joins. It would be good to get a history of the following for alliances:

• When someone leaves the alliance on their own terms
• When someone is kicked & by whom
• AP Purchases & by whom
• Alliance Shop Purchases & by whom

Currently, if an officer was to go AWOL, it's hard to track back to the root. Or if someone claims they were done wrong, you can't correct them with evidence.

As well as last active information for each player in the Alliance player list, would be good for monitoring inactives.

These features should be mandatory features.
