Sadly yeah. The devs themselves said it’s a different game made for a different playerbase…… This is why many of us still only play pso2, and refuse to touch NGS, even for the SG

Thank you! The voice I'm using in this video is "[EX] Voice A16: Yui Hasegawa" I think it's a JP exclusive from a promotional event in 2016.

The following link is my tree in the skill simulator: bit.ly/3pqqegg Do note, this tree is highly unoptimized for "proper" phantom gameplay since I pretty much put no points into skills revolving around Rod. Also, depending on how much pp you have and if you use Rod when playing phantom, I'd move the Mark PP Drain and Mark Heal points into Sprint Tech Charge, Ambivalence, Tech Charge Perf. Attk Addition, and Photon Stream.

@@murakumomech5128 Thanks for the Reply. This how my Rifle looks like imgur.com/MQFiPqN

Thanks! The JP names for the SSAs are in the description but for the global translations, they're: s1 Augment Will 2, s2 & s3 precision will 2, s4: steadfast will, s5: steadfast expanse, s6: skillful adept, s7: fortified ranged 2, s8: skydance support.

@@murakumomech5128 thanks... :3

The ending animation of shift kugelsturm has plenty of i-frames. So after I get impaled with her spikes/swords, I let go of shift Kugelsturm's button and the i-frames save me.

@@murakumomech5128 thank you, I also come to realize I can spam dodge during it and pray

Mark capsules are available during the SG support scratch on JP servers (unfortunately, I don't believe they're available on Global). Also, a lot of people fall into the trap of using shift Kugelsturm as their main dps method. Normal Attacks/Step Attacks with Counter Shots will yield a much higher dps in all situations (especially if you have "s4:steadfast will" since it will also increase your counter shot damage by 13%).

@@murakumomech5128 I'm starting to see that after moving my Steadfast Will to my Klaus rifle (and replacing Timeflow Will with Agressive Will 2), yea, it can do a lot more damage when done right. I just hope I don't cramp my hands as I go deeper trying this. XD I'm also gonna try to make a better Leg Klaus unit, ditch the Grand Stamina for a Grand Precision, ect.

@@JessePrower Sounds good 👍Also, s1:augment will 2 should be getting cheaper since as time goes on, more people are completing the higher depths and more augment will 2s are dropping (an extra 2% dmg increase over aggressive will 2 can save you some extra time). Good luck on the runs!!

@@murakumomech5128 Aug Will 2 has a higher damage mod than aggressive will 2? I thought it doubled my stats from the augs on my weapon

@@JessePrower Nah, what you're thinking of is s5: Augment Bloom (this S-Grade augment will double the stats from the augments on your weapon). S1: Augment Will 2 increases your damage by .75% for every augment affixed to a weapon. If you have 8 augments on your weapon, you'll get a 6% dmg increase.

Yeah, it's definitely possible without guardian soul units. As long as the s-abilities on your weapon are in order and you have a decent amount of atk from your units, you'll be good to go.👍

@@murakumomech5128 I see! well thanks to your setup, I was interested in trying to get a Steadfast will... and honestly just trying your method of mostly counters really shaved off a minute or 2 on my current times as I'm climbing to 100. I just wonder if my Escalating Pursuit and Mysterious Purpose would still be enough. I could get calming intent but I'll have to get used to not relying on my dps heals... and steadfast will is still really expensive in the market right now. Also don't have the crit S6 sadly yet too tho

@@Dogrethson Mysterious Purpose/Skillful Adept Will is still great as an s5. The only reason I'm using s5:Steadfast Expanse/Calming Expanse is because I'm already at 100% crit chance without it (60% from having 300pp, 20% from crit ring, 15% from s6, and a random 5% from somewhere XD). If you're not at 100% crit chance without mysterious purpose and crit s6, I'd highly recommend mysterious purpose over calming/steadfast expanse. It's unfortunate that s4:steadfast will is still expensive too. You should still be safe with escalating pursuit but if you find yourself running low on time in depth 100, i'd think it'd be a good idea to get it then.

@@murakumomech5128 IIRC you have a base 5% crit normally.

Thank you! And yeah, ph rifle's PA are pretty slow so step attacks with counter shots is a pretty good method of dealing with Sodam.

I don't know what the best rings are

@@FallenLegionaire For the right ring, I would use C-Strike (called Critical Strike on Global) since it gives you 20% extra crit chance on melee, ranged, and technique weapons as well as 3% extra crit dmg (it's a combined ring so you'll have to get ranged, strike, and technique crit rings at level 20 and combine them [but using the ranged crit ring is fine if you're only playing phantom rifle]). As for the left ring, Phantom Lock-On Bomb is great because you can detonate the marker on the enemy part you're locked onto (like the head or other enemy weakpoints). You can put left rings onto units with the unit skill addition mechanic from Dudu or Monica, however, I personally don't use phantom shift as I'm not really comfortable with it (however, I've seen some Phantom Katana players using it). The left ring skills I have on my units are currently Jumping[JP]/Leaping[Global] Dodge, Mag Excite[JP]/Excitement[Global], and Atomizer Lovers[JP]/Fanatic[Global]. Sorry for the long explanation, but yeah, C -Strike and Phantom Lock-On bomb are the most important in my opinion.

For enemies that you can abuse with counter shots, yeah (especially if you have s4:calming intent[JP]/s4:steadfast will[Global] since the step attack and the phantom counter are affected by the 13% dmg increase). For stationary/idle targets, Nachtangriff is better.

@@murakumomech5128 I see. i used to just do verbechen2x - normal 3 whenever the target is still moving. fortunately i'm still new to phantom rifle, so it's not muscle memory yet and i can incorporate your advice. thanks.

The true profound darkness Urgent Quest will probably drop somewhere next month on NA (shiva glare augment will drop, which will allow you to make absolute glare and guardian soul). They sure did catch up pretty quick XD

No worries XD. Divide was difficult when it was first introduced on JP servers and practice makes perfect. If you're using a Rivalate weapon, upgrading the potential to 23% and throwing on phrase decay and s4: Steadfast Will(if you're playing phantom rifle) will give you a huge damage boost.

Good idea! DQ becomes pretty easy once you memorize the enemy mob spawn locations and their behavior.

@@murakumomech5128 And how did you use shifted kugel to block her time stop attack?

@@NetCaffe The ending animation of shift kugelsturm has i-frames. I let go of shift kugelsturm when I get frozen in place. When Shiva uses her insta-kill slash, the animation for the i-frames begin so I avoid getting hit.

@@murakumomech5128 So you release it while frozen not before getting frozen right?

@@NetCaffe Yeah, I release it while frozen.

I admittedly haven't really been keeping up on Hero's damage output (and I'll try to avoid misinformation) but I wouldn't say that Hero would objectively have a higher damage output than Phantom. Unless you're looking at the best Phantom player and comparing him to the best Hero player, it would be very difficult to say one has higher damage than another. Especially since you have to take into account weapons and affixes. But going off of my own past experiences, I would say that Heroes have to work harder to outdamage a phantom of equal skill (since Hero has to avoid the damage penalty from getting hit). But even so, that damage difference isn't high enough to be concerned about which class is stronger.

@@murakumomech5128 thank you

Yeah. Made the 4 slot units (Guardian Soul, Ether Factor, Absolute Glare, and Returner V) then used augment transfer passes to throw on mana rev, mark joyo, grand shoot, and the s abilities. This unit set was actually new too. The previous units that had Astral Soul are now on my alt. Figured they were still pretty decent so I kept them instead of using them as fodder for Guardian Soul XD

I just noticed that too. Same issue is present on the local video file. Most likely an issue with Nvidia ShadowPlay.

@@murakumomech5128 Maybe, did S4:calming intent and S5:Calming expense increase normal attack DPS by a lot? is it close to nachtangriff or still far from it dps

@@NetCaffe s4: calming intent does increase normal attack dmg by a lot (it also increases phantom counter shot dmg by 13%, so it's pretty much the best s4 for phantom rifle). For s5: calming expanse, I'd only recommend it if your crit chance is maxed. Normally s5: mysterious intent is the "goto" s5 for phantom rifle due to increased crit chance, 2% extra crit dmg, and great healing from phantom rifle's high hit count. However, you're able to max your crit chances by having s6 wise skill, crit ring, and 300 or more pp. This means the only benefit you would gain from s5: Mysterious Purpose is the 2% extra crit dmg and healing. Calming expanse gives 2% dmg, some extra dmg on normals/step attacks (depending on your range from an enemy), and 6 pp per hit. However, even with calming intent and calming expanse, natchtangriff is still superior in terms of dps if you're attacking a stationary/non-attacking attacking target. However, if you're fighting a boss like Persona or Sodam, Calming intent will allow you to out dps natchtangriff by a lot since your step attacks and phantom counters damage are increased by the 13%. Sorry for the long explanation XD

@@murakumomech5128 Never though S4 is more important I alway think S5 make you hit 1 more time with 60/75% damage would mean 60/75% damage increase in normal attack or something close to that but still calming expense in not available yet in global and is it easier to obtain than calming intent?

@@NetCaffe The 60/75% damage is the reference dmg from the spread needle potential, not your rifle's normal attacks. pso2.arks-visiphone.com/wiki/Spread_Needle For instance, the level 1 potential for spread needle has an extra attack where for the level 3 potential for spread needle gives 1.5x the damage for the extra attack (150%) assuming you're playing phantom and using the attack at short range. The 60/75% (long range/short range) damage from calming expanse is % dmg from the spread needle's extra attack. The wording definitely can be a bit confusing XD. Calming Expanse is easier to farm and should be really cheap since most people don't use it. Once it comes to global, it should be really easy to get since it is cheap and it drops in seasonal Urgent Quests.

Knowing the enemies' attack patterns and their timing is important. For instance, at 1:50 I know that after the first 2 slams, you're able to do 1 normal attack before needing to dodge the 3rd slam. So once you know the timing of enemy attacks, it becomes easier to know when to dodge and when to attack. As for calming intent, yeah it's pretty hard to get. Farming Earth Destroyers(Mother+Deus) Solo Triggers is the optimal way to farm it.

@@murakumomech5128 Learning to get better now and do you know if XH and UH have same capsule droprate? or UH give better droprate, also your unit is super good :O

@@NetCaffe Thank you! Hopefully I don't have to affix units ever again. But as far as the difficulty affecting the drop rate of Calming Intent, I couldn't find any evidence that suggests they're different (just rumors). I wish I could've been of more help.

@@murakumomech5128 Farming for few day now but still no luck xd, and will you upload divide quest gameplay in future?

@@NetCaffe Calming Intent is a pain in the ass to farm XD. And yeah, next upload will be divide quest!

Thank you! Weapons, Units, Rings, and Affixes: imgur.com/a/VMnBTn2

Thanks! Hopefully NA gets the soul and factor receptors along with an SG support scratch soon. Couldn't have done these affixes without them XD. Here's my skill tree: bit.ly/3ndEwiy (Note: My build is strictly for Phantom Rifle with Katana as a backup weapon. A more balanced tree would see points in Ambivalence, Sprint Tech Charge, and Tech Charge Perf. Atk Addition).
