In NGS, the sub-class level doesn't contribute to BP at all, as sub-class doesn't give any stats. The main class is the only level required to equip weapons (even the sub-class' weapons.) Skill Points assigned to the sub-class skill tree do count toward BP however. But Skill Points are cross-class (and account-wide) in NGS. Meaning when you do all the cocoons/towers on one class, other classes will already have the 20+ Skill Points to freely spend, just waiting to be assigned.

TL;DR: You only need the sub-class chosen and assign skill points to the sub-class' tree. That's all.

@iTriHard said in Character Name Change:

I attempted to change my character's name today, however it has not taken effect. Is there a time delay? I tried to find a place to submit a ticket, however it just kept sending me back to the login window.

You have to use the Xbox/Microsoft login regardless of what platform you're using to use the support ticket system. They don't plan to fix it as they don't seem to think it's an issue.

@kztm said in PSA: Daily Tasks can be completed on a New Character on the Same Account:

Hm. Are there other stuff that are account-wide? Premium Set? Friends list?

Now that I'm thinking about it, what about characters on a different ship?

Friends list is ship-wide because you're actually friending the person's Player Name ID, not their character.

Premium Set is account-wide, yes.

@FoolsArcana said in PSA: Talis Sub-Weapon in a Multiweapon Configuration & Multilock PP Regeneration:

Is it possible to use Talis normal attacks with the main weapon being a rod?

Yes. Put the normal attack for Talis on your sub-palette or palette:

I'm thinking of doing a Talis/Rod. If Tricky Capacitor is worth the damage, then I can pick that up for additional damage. Ideally, I'ld like to run Talis Main, Rod Normals, Zonde, Rod Guard, Barta, Foie, Talis Turret. But I think I'm going to be locked into Talis normals, which isn't really gonna deter me from doing it.

You basically will be using tricky capacitor as an oGCD after stocking it with a Talis PA/Talis Tech. You can gain Ticky Gauge by using Talis Techs. (Which is why I have the AoE Talis PA on my sub-palette left rod normal on key 5.

I mostly want to know if launching techs from the Talis without being deployed will do the same damage as a Rod. That's the ultimate deciding factor for me.

Charged/uncharged techs do basically the same damage on both weapons when on force. Since Talis and Rod are both force weapons. (For whatever reason, my rod does about 10 less damage regardless of charged/uncharged than Talis, even though Talis is sub.) (This might be because Techter is my main class, and Force is sub.)

And then I also have to wonder if losing the Rod normal damage is worth the 10% damage increase from main weapon. My Rod Normals +40 20% potency potential and augmented do around 160 no crit. My current Talis weapon at +12 no potential does 58 per normal.

The reason why Talis does less normal damage is because Talis has a slide normal when using talis during a dash (ground only.) When you use said slide dash attack, your talis normal will do double that of a rod normal basically. This is actually the same amount of damage as the same attack from a rod. (Also, because of the Turret, too.)

I wouldn't worry about normal attacks much. You will only use normals when gaining back PP basically.

@FoolsArcana said in PSA: Talis Sub-Weapon in a Multiweapon Configuration & Multilock PP Regeneration:

Is Tricky Capacitor worth it? What kinda damage does it deal?

Right now with this weapon:

I get anywhere from 20 to 54 damage per hit on Tricky Capacitor. The active skill hits about 4 times or so.

I didn't know this would be a feature. So I decided to share it with you all. Here's a screenshot of basically a new character:

And here is her Ranger Skill tree:

Note, she wouldn't be able to solo the level 15/1184 BP stuff like this, so all those skill points are actually from when my other character completed them all. In case you need actual real proof of a brand new character doing this. Here's another of my characters:

When deployed using the Talis Weapon Action, the Talis Turret will regenerate your PP based on its current turret configuration:

• 3x WA does 1 PP per hit registered. (3 PP total for all 3 hits.) (Via Multilock)
• 1x WA does 2 PP per hit registered.

Downside to Multilock:

The divided damage stays divided even if the multilock hits only two enemies. IE: If you normally do 10 damage with the normal WA, you will do 3 Damage with the multilock, no matter if it only hits two enemies.

You can use the non-multilock WA by moving while using the Talis WA.

Talis Turret stays deployed even switching away from a Talis in a multi-weapon configuration. You can even use another weapon's WA while deployed.

You cannot accept new daily tasks on a character that hasn't unlocked the daily task system yet. However, if you login to a character that is past the point in the story where you can accept daily tasks, the daily task list will update and then you can go to the new character to complete said daily tasks.

Keep in mind, daily/weekly tasks are account-wide. Meaning once you complete a daily/weekly task on one character, you can't again until the tasks reset, even on another character.

@Toukun said in Cannot Finish "Gather Seafood at North Aelio" Daily:

I wanted to add, it is now 20 minutes to next daily reset, 23h 40 minutes from when the quest was issued. I just did one final lap and found 0 new seafood. This confirms that they do not spawn over the course of the day.

Yeah, same.

Yeah, and now that it's a little less than an hour until daily reset, and no new lobster spawns, guess I couldn't do all my daily tasks, oh well.
