@@Thriftshoppin KEY question I have on Subclasses, also a very new player and want to pick a good one: I've seen an Active skill of a subclass that normally has a long duration cancel itself instantly if I switch back to my Main's weapon. Is that the same for the passive buffs, i.e. for me to gain the benefit of the various quite good passives you mentioned in the Subclass section of this video, do I not only have to equip a weapon of that subclass but does that weapon have to be ACTIVE for me to gain the benefit? EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out for myself. The passives that make no mention at all of needing a class or a weapon DO still work, such as the Waker's Resta Effect Continuance or Hunter's Flash Guard.

This should be the tutorial, you answered SO many questions for me as a new player I can’t thank you enough!!

You can add buying Material Storage with Star Gems from the SG Shop on your future tips for new players. Freeing up Inventory space is nice. It does cost 720 SG (90 days) , saving up those Star Gems is important for new players.

@Thriftshoppin

2 жыл бұрын

I may be in the minority here, but for accounts that are not involved with base PSO2, I find there to be little reason to invest in material storage at the current gamestate. There just isn't enough materials to justify the 720 SG expense every three months. As NGS becomes bigger and more resources pile up, definitely. However, at the current state, it makes more sense to make two alts for storage mules and using those characters to store anything excess.

I'm new to PSO2NG. I didn't even know what to decide on for the set up screens because every decision you make seems permanent. So I'm trying to get info first. These are questions about permanent decisions I have to make before playing. Question 1) I have downloaded PSO2NG on my Xbox one s. Can I load up my character with my user account then later can my brother log in with his user account so that we have different character profiles when we play? Question 2) when the screen first says if you want to link accounts, I would choose yes to connect accounts if I might want to play on another device later on (like another xbox console). Isn't that what everyone should pick? Why would you choose no to not link accounts? Question 3) for the player ID, can I use my KZread name? My gamertag name? What are some good suggestions? What are some bad suggestions? I heard to not use your real name. Question 4) When I choose race and class can I change them later? Question 5) Do I get 3 free slots of characters to create? Question 6) If I mess up my character and don't like them, can I delete them and start over and still have the same amount of slots for characters? Question 7) When I first pick a ship, can I change it later easily? Thank you

*Everything can be modified at a later time... with money. Not completely horrible as its not super pricey and clothes/hair can be swapped on the fly for free, but extensive changes such as body customization, altering accessories (ie, size shape, and position of certain items), changing color of anything and skill resets require passes or direct premium currency (not sure if any of these passes can be obtained on the player market, but they are probably extremely expensive if they are). Not a huge fan of this as its just a way to force some monetization out of you if you are F2P and you bought some custimization items on the player market. Still pretty fun and some of the best customization out there, but probably not 100% f2p friendly if you want to alter your character at a later point.

Hi Thriftshoppin, found your video due to the recent PS4 announcement. While I'm quite excited, as a new player, there's also a fair bit of confusion in regards to which game to play at launch. So I'd like to ask you and any other vets in the comments: Is PSO2 worht playing at all at this point or should I just start with PSO2NG? My worry is that having both available will split the new userbase if there is no clear direction to take. Does completing PSO2 grant any benefits to NG? Is it even possible to beat PSO2 solo if everyone just starts NG instead? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

@Thriftshoppin

2 жыл бұрын

PSO2 has a lot of features and content that is worthy of going back and playing. You should NOT feel obligated to start PSO2 before PSO2:NGS. They are separate storylines. So in my opinion, start in NGS, and whenever you feel bored or want something new to do, use PSO2 as an option to try new things. The pro response is: PSO2 gives a TON of star gems, a microtransaction currency. PSO2NGS has very little options to earn Star Gems when compared to PSO2. So that's the major reason why (at some point) you'll try PSO2. Hope this answer helps!

Enemies do go in the sky, but they can be reached via double-jumping. However, you do lose a bit of verticality every attack so melee classes will either need to use skills that increase their verticality or drop to the ground and double-jump again. IMO the best classes to try as a new player are: Hunter: Any weapon to experience Avenger Arts. You may really like counter-heavy combat, all 3 weapons deal with counter-based combat Fighter: Any wep but I'd personally suggest Double Saber and Twin Dagger Braver: Katana is super dense with combos and skills if youre willing to deal with a learning curve Gunner: All combo based class, stylish combat, very strong Force: Best AoE farming class. You'll use this class at some point simply because of this reason
