Wow, I'm on the list?

I'd recommend choosing a race/class/or gender that you haven't used before. I tend to do that so I can hoard more outfits from mission pass and so your alt can use a different mag than your main. It's a fun little challenge for me cause I pick classes I'm not that great at. If I wind up loving the class after all, I'll take what I learned from the alt and apply it to my main. So an alt can be a great "test" character for whatever you might want to try. Also there is little to no reason to get an alt past level 50 for the weekly quests so you don't have to spend a lot of time on them if you don't want to. Just make what you want =^.^=

Yup B1 on ship 3 but as other said you gotta be running one of the more popular ones and by filling fast we mean 10 - 20 minutes. Though I had someone in my alliance wait 40 minutes before for a MBVR to fill. So time of day also seems to be important. I do recommend joining an alliance though. It helps to know there are people about that will run things with you, and I guarantee your fellow alliance members will appreciate any triggers you bring them, even if they can't always run them.

I love UQ's for several reasons. Decent exp, collection folder, knowledge that everyone is running at the same time, and testing my damage. There also aren't always triggers for me to run. Not to mention all the 10 star and up drops that I can turn into ex cubes <3.

I joined the floatinf facility one Caught like.. one sardine. Why couldn't you judge me on the billion squid I caught?!

If I recall you can't trade anything 13 star or above in those capsules. So earlier when I wanted to give my hunny a val weapon with a S3 on it. I wouldn't of been able to use the capsule machine and though I didn't know premium trading was down I'd or been properly pissed if he had premium and I still couldn't trade with him.

Shoepy is a rappy is a santa boot/stocking. Also Here is the most complete mag list I've found.

Between the two you should be able to find whatever you are looking for @Cedusa

We're not getting NGS till "Spring" It's still winter awhile longer. So we're gusstimating Luster by later January early February and then NGS around April which keeps up their tradition of major content updates every couple of months. So hopefully we have at least a couple months with Luster before NGS hits but keep in mind despite the initial rush to NGS there won't be tons of content available at release. So we'll still be playing PSO2 plenty. For those like me at least I still have a ton of titles I've not gotten and quests I've not touched yet and don't forget SG is shared so gonna wanna do mission pass and any other SG grinding in PSO2 as well.

Well now I know I'll just buy the AC and then wait for a throwback scratch. Still sad though I wanted about 90% of the stuff in there specially the hairs T.T I'm too broke from affixing and such to buy it outright with Meseta and as soon as the scratch poofs the prices will hike up again.

The quest is super easy. So there is no reason to wait for a full 12 people and the people running is are spamming it for the exp to level fast. If you don't get in in time then join another block, if you really need the party bonus then run with friends, and if you are just after the box then run it at the lowest level and grab the box at the end before joining anyone else. People aren't being jerks people are using an EXP QUEST TO LEVEL.. which is it's intended purpose.
