its free , like literally who care, its not meant for player who already grind for their end game gear , its for people who just go in , argenti is simply a starter weapon like all seasonal weapon are, for new player that want to enter LC explorations or do urgent quests
Did you watch the video? Keroppi clearly said that people were misinformed and thought Argenti was better than their Versch/Melek weapons. So those people clearly cared, even if they were wrong.
I thought my previous weapons from the last seasonal event was good enough. Wanna know why? I played scaling most like wow for ever and people put WAYYYYYY too much effort and time to get the gear and fixa they feel they need. Only to be replaced like in 2 months. Screw that. I am a casual. Luciel can kiss my tushie. Her to play not live out my life on this game. This year might last me the entire year who knows? I know I don't care. I play for story and what ever I can run.
this set is great for returning players, newbies, and especially for those who don't bother to upgrade their weapons and armors. This will make Leciel and/or LTQ runs better with a much less fail rate and this is important since Leciel is the hot grinding stuff right now with the PA upgrade things.
My thoughts exactly since they came along x). Solid solution for too many of them coming in with untouched seasonal gear (meaning WITH sezun aug & +60) from prior months.
@cookx84 yeah I feel you. Not to be toxic about it but I once commented that people should change the season augment on their weapons once the event ends and get it to +70 but their reply was like "I don't want to be bothered upgrading something that will be replaced in a few months" like dude, it'll cost less than 4 days worth of dailies to enhance it to max (70) and change the season augment to stat 4. I guess Sega might've seen a few posts/comments here and there that people are like that and they just went ahead and gave us decent gear with LC augments, fixa 5, and already maxed to 80. Lol
Basically: the free gear is nice catchup equipment for people who might need it, but it's far from going to outclass your best in slot gear you farmed for.
Weapon works fine for me. I gave up spending so much meseta, not getting any good LC capsules, and also not having barely enough to limit break. Probably just switch Trible 2 for Spi Trible S or something.
I've gotten tired of grinding for maximizing only for it to be replaced or something free within 2 months that's better than what I've already farmed so hard for. I've decided to just farm to sell for the try-hards instead for fashion. The video explains the weapon isn't better, yes, but what I mean how quickly meta changes is too fast for how hard it is to get drops and meseta.
@@rockheartqueen Yup got Scales for a Melek Katana then threw it on the market immediately. Nice 1,200,000 while it was losing value. Bonus I got a Melek Wire right after:)
It's easy to sit back with our ample experience and mock the argenti weapon. The game gives an incredibly basic augmenting tutorial at the very start of the game and then it's really up to the player if they're going to dig any deeper. As a free to play, the very beginning of the game felt like a nightmare of items being thrown at me without any explanation of what is important or what is worthless and it becomes immediately apparent that inventory management will be a chore. Now players are at least given a Hextra weapon at the very start which should be more than enough the carry them through the story - and they just made the story easier. Once a player completes the story they are now given a set of starter gear which will allow them to participate in the current meta of farming LC, Solus, Dreads, PSEs, etc. comfortably and begin the treadmill of upgrading gear. Growthmet just got much easier to acquire, so rolling to upgrade fixas just got that much more accessible. Growthmet can now be exchanged for some of the LC capsules at the item trader. Defi P.03 capsules can now be purchased with gigas strugmets, so if you've for some reason still not augmented a set of duel gear, now is a fine time to give that a try. Gigas strugmets drop from the new ranks of purple trigger in aelio and retem. Lots of end game activities. Argenti is just the jumping off point.
Guys who are new. Run hunter waker with a hunter weapon from this set and use the hunter skill that gives you DR whenever it’s off cool down and you are pretty tanky with lots of DR and health regen. Waker makes you take less damage and the restasign will heal over time
While this is good advice, I never see "pick this class because it's good for new players" as solid because if the player is not having fun with this class and finds it boring, they are more likely to quit the game or forget about it. Instead I like to encourage people to pick whatever they want, and if it's a harder class, to show them to be more patient and practice. I've known lots of people who picked Force or Hunter as their first class and thought the game was terrible and never came back to the game
Braver/Waker with +50 Increased Healing Food Buff is much better and excels in end game content. Hunter/Waker and Techtur/Waker are good too. In fact... As a Sub Class... Force (Massive PP Regen), Waker (Greater Healing), Fighter (Elemental Down DPS Boost), Hunter (Defence), and Slayer (Crit Rate) are the best for min maxed stats. The other Sub Classes are either a lesser version of the above stated, niche, or are weaker version of its Main Class. Unless you like the weapons.
Its actually comparable to Vershmel Termina 1, so if you had a higher Termina it's already better than it. But with that in mind, its a great weapon for pushing up every players' BP to adequate amount and to dispell any "I DON'T KNOW HOW TO AUGMENT" excuses or griefers who just AFK purposely.
Or people that spend more on fashion than Gearing, if anything at all. Wouldn't be an issue if at the same time they didn't force vets to carry them thru Leciel & other quests, lol.
@@cookx84 Even with that said, it's the bare minimum still, I guess we still need the non LC stuff to get higher stats. But now at least even alt characters can join in other players when they needed to.
Well, I chose to use it until I have a Melek weapon, as it IS better than a Termina 2 Neos A +70 if I do not want to invest further for +80 and all that, as I am very much set on getting myself that Melek weapon (playing a Slayer btw)
I have a feeling the Gear Chart is somewhat bugged, I’ve had higher damage from baseline Argenti than Neos A from DPS Meter and in general combat. It doesn’t seem right when a Primm weapon shows better numbers.
Yeah I noticed that too. The number I was getting per attack was clearly higher than my Neos. I even tried various attacks multiple times just to account for floor potency and even with a crit my Neos with no fixa was doing less than my Argenti.
The real question is how you got to that answer? I find it extremely hard to believe that you got to that answer without something going incredibly wrong without your knowledge.
4:09 Argenti weapon AND the Effi set Which means other weapons are on octo armors with better augs, so ofcourse the number are higher on other weapons. The sheet isn't bugged.
Are you using Lv1 training targets or low level enemies for testing? They have lower defense than enemies at lv75 and weapons against lower enemies are capped by their attack values.
I appreciate these, as although I do in theory already have better items with better augments and fixas, I appear to only have half the Gold IIs needed (even with a stash of nearly 100 100% percent success boosters) to get all my stuff to level 80. So If you haven't got several hundred Gold IIs lying around, and are only likely to pick up a handful each week, this free gear is going to be fantastic for now.
Matey, they are a stop gap weapon. They do the job. Of course the weapons you grind for will be better than the catch-up weapons. Since their release pub runs have been much smoother.
They do heal you which is a plus, so holding onto them for instances where you run out if restating or to reduce the rate at which you lose health during sustained hp damage in lc is not a bad idea. I'm using them as msins, but only until I lay hands on a flugelgard or Max out anther 9-star weapon.
DPS wise, get the Veshmels??? since it's a craft able. Braver and Bouncers get the benefit of going Braver (Melee/Range) and Bouncer (Melee/Tech) max Potency. So you can Main Class Braver or Bouncer. Go Range or Tech. Then equip any Range (Braver) or Tech (Bouncer) weapon from other Classes. You can also go Melee too but Katana and Soaring Blades have similar ranges to other melee weapons. And, you're stuck with only Bow or Boots. About 140%+ Max Potency (Max Dual Potency for Braver and Bouncer) on top of Veshmels 100+ Crit Rate for +20% Extra Damage Done per crit hit. This new weapon series is great as a back up weapon and with the +50% Boost to Healing Food Buff. About 10% healing per second based on total health, is very strong with a Waker Sub Class.
Upgrading gear in this game is honestly just a terrible experience, so annoying and time consuming. Why can't they be normal. Anyways i guess next month we'll have a new upgrade resource to farm to continue leveling up gear
I tend to take the potential boosts in older weapons with some grain of salt, as the massive boost at higher potentials is to allow them to remain relevant for those who don't wish to change their gear and haven't bothered to get the relevant Almati camo, but they still lag behind higher gear. The Argenti Weapons are explicitly there as catchup gear for returning players or players deciding to go to a character they may not have played for awhile and is now lagging behind their main in a big way. They are not, and never were, there to be a replacement for the Neos-A, Verschimelz, Tisah, and Melek weapons. My Waker/Hunter doesn't get played much now, and she will love these weapons, as will my wallet. It isn't competitive with best in slot gear, but it will save me time and money in terms of gearing her when I want to play her. I will also admit that I do like the color of the Argenti series and hope to see a camo in the future.
Well just look at this simple explanation.... Argenti series = Platinum Primm series 100% - Recommended for returned player (who still at Lv65-70) 500% - For player who fking lazy to gear up (Like me...) 1000% - For those who still using Seasonal Weapons Not every player can afford to spend those expensive capsules into a gear that not going to last for 6 months, new contents require better gears. Just imagine yesterday you made a super-end-game augs into a Tisah katana, but then today you got a Flugelgard Katana If you have the meseta like Kero did, you should able to make it, but what if you're not 😵
When you consider the time it takes to farm and build a weapon stuff like this is a win. Think about it a couple months ago 1 hour could get you maybe 2 to 4 Arms Refiner 2. You need a good 8-hour farm to get enough and by the end of it you literally have just the materials to limit break. Still got to level it and put on augments. Simply getting any of these weapons to +80 is a waste of your time now that Argenti is here. Is it worth to farm and build a Neos weapon from scratch just for 7% increase. When I came back to this game a couple months ago my Neos weapon wasn't strong enough for LC. I had to spend 2 weeks to make my gear stronger just to farm for the better gear.
I think the importance of the free argenti and armor was to get players into the latest content without gatekeeping or grinding muiltiple hours and spending lots of meseta just to get there.
Yeah, I wasn't expecting the Argenti Weapons to be really good. It's free stuff afterall, so it would've been absolutely busted if they were to be on par with the other 9* and 10* weapons. They are at least good enough to keep up with current content and are nice to have if you want to try out a class. And the units? Kind of the same story there, but they're really nice for the multi-class users out there. My Ship 4 character is definitely going to be able to make use of a lot of this, since I don't spend a lot of time on that one. Just gotta take some time to level her remaining classes to 65, that's all
i recently started playing pso2 again after a long while. a few days ago, in fact. i'm the farthest from a hardcore player, so these are a great way to play catch up since i was only about level 40
This is a welcome freebie imo. Mainly bcs, I haven't been grinding too much (took a long break) and I came back just for the free set and weapon, which bumped my BP and dmg pretty significantly. I'm a casual, so this is pretty nice. I am a base player, so augmenting was never a chore whatsoever for me, but this is really nice free stuff. I do have Neos A, but not even lvl 80, just 61. Till then, Argenti it is!
So I've been really heavy on Fixas lately. When I saw the fixa attack, I knew it'd be outclassed even by Neos A. Neos A at +80 is 967 attack. I had one with with a Fixa Fatale 5 with non-LC augs and it easily did more DPS even with a lower atk stat. And like Kero said, you're literally stuck with that fixa on Argenti. If youre able to grab a Melek weapon, this is the way to go. At +80, they're around 1034 atk. And they're falling quickly in price. You can grab a non-fixa one on the personal shop on ship 2 for 300k-400k. Or Versch with Termina.
Kero brooo, finally got my 1st real rare drop in 800 hrs lol, got a flugelgard! It unfortunately is a wand, but hey flugel is a flugel lol, thnx for the vid bro!
I will continue to use the free stuff, upgrades are expensive (and doubled when running two characters), plus we will have to replace gear later down the road when the new stuff comes out
Yeah Kero, when I saw your video yesterday, I knew today's video was coming. Lol. I saw that 1000 attack and was like... yeah that's level 80 tho... nope. Junk. Definitely had to comfort some people in the alliance. Lol
I'm not a tryhard grinding for the best constantly every month when new things drop with horrid rates. These weapons and gear have better everything already set than all that I have been using all year now so it's an easy swap upgrade for all classes. And I get to save my money for what actually matters in this game, the dress-up options.
I got tisah soaring blade for 3.5M and tisah wand for 1.9M, that insane(Ship 1) you guy remember back day when that was sold by 98M, 100M etc etc. So if you find one and you are new, farm meseta a lot to get them before they are back to normal.
My Verschmelz Gunblade (with level 1 Fixa Termina) upgraded to level 80 with better augments actually does roughly 500 (average) less DPS than the Argenti Gunblade. At least that has been my experience so far. So, I have switched until I build up a Melek or, if I'm lucky, a Flugelgard Gunblade. But that's just my experience so far. I'm still loving the content, keep up the good work.
@@myonwontstfu Oh I figured it out. But I just wanted to point it out to others just in case. Then they can help improve their DPS with no cost, while building a stronger weapon up the road. Though I do appreciate you pointing that out for others to see. Thank you for the addition.
Argenti weapons... yeah, good for placeholder upgrade if you didn't do that much earlier or as it's intended purpose, for returners and newbies who are getting in the high levels. Edit: The irony on me is the fact that I STILL use the good old seasonal Crystia Weapons despite how many better are released currently.
me too, I also think it's not worth it to get it to fixa 5 tho. the difference is just 1% crit damage so we're set until the 10 stars drop rate gets higher like the tisah rn
It's good for the lazy people that only use seasonal weapons or don't update their gear in a really long time. As for the people up-to-date with the gear they can use the set for duel quest I guess. I might do that, but trying to get older defi capsules is a pain in the neck
Yeah, I took a look at the Argenti Potential and tossed them in storage... The armor though, that was a gift for me as my armor has been *bad* for a long time now.
Eftistant is 3.5% potency, 15HP and 2PP; Ajax is 3.5% potency 30HP 5PP and 1% damage resist; Octo is 4.5% potency 20HP; Octo dual stats is 4.5% potency 40HP 6PP. So the unit itself is a slightly weaker version of Ajax, which is not as bad compared to the weapon.
Funny how people are going to see this and believe it. Skill makes all the difference guys . Literally the same damage as others (non high fixa)with exception on 10 star
They are stronger than Neos and that's all I was using since I refuse to spend meseta on gear. These weapons don't suck, they're perfectly good for all content and for a solo player like me since all "endgame content" is completey gated by having friends or a tight knit group to play with, because 100% of endgame is extremely unfair to solo's and introverts and pug groups.
hey♪ Verchmelz are droping like candy in Leciel, ive got over 20 and half of em with a lv 2+ fixa: think they telling us GET THIS INSTEAD! on tech/PA crafting do at least LVL5 coz L6 n up change is slower, most of the chnge comes from L1 to L5 MOST cases
Since you neglected to mention the Tisah series, I’ll add this. The Argenti series is 51 Attack and between 32-36 Potential Potency behind the Tisah series.
I don't have free time to play this game like i used to working two jobs and prob get a hr off playtime maybe I've never heard of the Malek series tbh I'm glad they released things like this i don't care about meta.
Thanks for confirming that I didn't waste all of my resources starting to grind my Ver Wand with Fixa1 up. The free weapon is a good handout but I miss the verticality of my wired multi
So, what you are saying is these are great for casual and/or unlucky players, and the hardcore and/or lucky players are still going to have better gear? Nothing to see here.
Well its usable if you dont care about meta numbers you can atleast save up for lets say if sega decided to throw another weapon series wich they always do Look at the tisah series now they are selling them for 10m and no one cared buying them coz fugel now exist
i got today my 3. tisah and this time the rifle with termina 2. i checked it and yeah....trash too xd my verschmelz termina 4 is even better as a flugel...till the 3rd buff comes in.
Thank you for the timely vid. I came back to the game the day after maintenance and felt confused and irritated that they gave everyone something so powerful. I was skeptical there was more to it.
This video started off and ended kinda tone deaf. These weapons aren't trash nor do they suck. Devs will never give away free gear thats better than the stuff you can grind for. These weapons were never meant to outclass anything "comparable" they were CATCH UP weapons, gear designed to get people to end game so they can get the real gear. So you constantly saying these weapons are bad or mid is entirety disingenuous when anyone whos played an MMO knew exactly what the Argenti weapons were gonna be. Argenti isnt bad just not the best
The issue is 9* AND fixa attack 5 is very misleading, especially to casual players. They would automatically assume the weapon should not be far behind a regular 9*, but its base stats is weaker than a 5* Cinquem.
for every player who use argenti weapon and free armor from the sega with 24% all potency, please don't just casually doing the "planet breaker" quest. Not the UQ but the quest where we fight DFS lvl 75. Why I say this, it's because they all a burden. I remember I fight DFS lvl 75 with my 156% potency and Im in the group of 3 player using this "return player equipment". From that I never complete the quest because it doesn't have enough dps and I already using my RDR item. For a solo player like me who doesn't have friends to play, honestly it's annoying for me because it was a waste of time. Sorry if I sound aggrassive, hope people understand what I mean. Thank you...

While worse than the other weapons, it still enables you to try out new weapon types without murdering your dps.
This!!! Not to mention the the new armor is all potency so it’s nice to try an old class if you’ve been grinding your main for the past 6 months
Exactly
I can finally try out ranger so I'm happy
Yep I only play enough to gear up 1 maybe 2 classes to a decent degree. So getting average weapons for every class instead of trash is Great!
If you're low on HP switching to it momentarily heals you when you run out of Restasigne

The Argenti Weapons are explicitly there as catchup gear for returning players or players deciding to go to a character they may not have played for awhile and is now lagging behind their main in a big way.
They are not, and never were, there to be a replacement for the Neos-A, Verschimelz, Tisah, and Melek weapons. My Waker/Hunter doesn't get played much now, and she will love these weapons, as will my wallet. It isn't competitive with best in slot gear, but it will save me time and money in terms of gearing her when I want to play her. I will also admit that I do like the color of the Argenti series and hope to see a camo in the future.
Well just look at this simple explanation....
Argenti series = Platinum Primm series
100% - Recommended for returned player (who still at Lv65-70)
500% - For player who fking lazy to gear up (Like me...)
1000% - For those who still using Seasonal Weapons
Not every player can afford to spend those expensive capsules into a gear that not going to last for 6 months, new contents require better gears.
Just imagine yesterday you made a super-end-game augs into a Tisah katana, but then today you got a Flugelgard Katana
If you have the meseta like Kero did, you should able to make it, but what if you're not 😵
When you consider the time it takes to farm and build a weapon stuff like this is a win. Think about it a couple months ago 1 hour could get you maybe 2 to 4 Arms Refiner 2. You need a good 8-hour farm to get enough and by the end of it you literally have just the materials to limit break. Still got to level it and put on augments. Simply getting any of these weapons to +80 is a waste of your time now that Argenti is here. Is it worth to farm and build a Neos weapon from scratch just for 7% increase. When I came back to this game a couple months ago my Neos weapon wasn't strong enough for LC. I had to spend 2 weeks to make my gear stronger just to farm for the better gear.
I think the importance of the free argenti and armor was to get players into the latest content without gatekeeping or grinding muiltiple hours and spending lots of meseta just to get there.
Yeah, I wasn't expecting the Argenti Weapons to be really good. It's free stuff afterall, so it would've been absolutely busted if they were to be on par with the other 9* and 10* weapons. They are at least good enough to keep up with current content and are nice to have if you want to try out a class. And the units? Kind of the same story there, but they're really nice for the multi-class users out there. My Ship 4 character is definitely going to be able to make use of a lot of this, since I don't spend a lot of time on that one. Just gotta take some time to level her remaining classes to 65, that's all
Is there any proof the calculator is accurate? I'd like to see some in-game testing.
i recently started playing pso2 again after a long while. a few days ago, in fact. i'm the farthest from a hardcore player, so these are a great way to play catch up since i was only about level 40
This is a welcome freebie imo. Mainly bcs, I haven't been grinding too much (took a long break) and I came back just for the free set and weapon, which bumped my BP and dmg pretty significantly. I'm a casual, so this is pretty nice. I am a base player, so augmenting was never a chore whatsoever for me, but this is really nice free stuff. I do have Neos A, but not even lvl 80, just 61. Till then, Argenti it is!
So I've been really heavy on Fixas lately. When I saw the fixa attack, I knew it'd be outclassed even by Neos A. Neos A at +80 is 967 attack. I had one with with a Fixa Fatale 5 with non-LC augs and it easily did more DPS even with a lower atk stat. And like Kero said, you're literally stuck with that fixa on Argenti.
If youre able to grab a Melek weapon, this is the way to go. At +80, they're around 1034 atk. And they're falling quickly in price. You can grab a non-fixa one on the personal shop on ship 2 for 300k-400k. Or Versch with Termina.
Why did anyone assumed the Argenti was top of the line? and Keroppi you know better as a longtime player...you still da man though.
The Argenti weapons can't be used as materials! That SUCKS!!!
I just came back to ngs so this pretty good for returning players
I wouldn’t expect them to be good if they’re all free
Kero brooo, finally got my 1st real rare drop in 800 hrs lol, got a flugelgard! It unfortunately is a wand, but hey flugel is a flugel lol, thnx for the vid bro!
Yooo lemme cop that x)
I will continue to use the free stuff, upgrades are expensive (and doubled when running two characters), plus we will have to replace gear later down the road when the new stuff comes out
saw the new units in my inventory. looked at the stats. looked back at the 9 octo units with the same augments. looked back at the new units. o.o
And thus power gaming snobs everywhere cheered for they thought their entire existence spent grinding, was about to be undone by free gear.
Yeah Kero, when I saw your video yesterday, I knew today's video was coming. Lol. I saw that 1000 attack and was like... yeah that's level 80 tho... nope. Junk. Definitely had to comfort some people in the alliance. Lol
I'm not a tryhard grinding for the best constantly every month when new things drop with horrid rates. These weapons and gear have better everything already set than all that I have been using all year now so it's an easy swap upgrade for all classes. And I get to save my money for what actually matters in this game, the dress-up options.
I got tisah soaring blade for 3.5M and tisah wand for 1.9M, that insane(Ship 1) you guy remember back day when that was sold by 98M, 100M etc etc. So if you find one and you are new, farm meseta a lot to get them before they are back to normal.
The free weapon is useful for people who want to compare DPS between classes and their weapons.
Free minimal investment equipment for future Duel Quests and their respective 'beat with 5 classes' title.
My Verschmelz Gunblade (with level 1 Fixa Termina) upgraded to level 80 with better augments actually does roughly 500 (average) less DPS than the Argenti Gunblade. At least that has been my experience so far. So, I have switched until I build up a Melek or, if I'm lucky, a Flugelgard Gunblade. But that's just my experience so far. I'm still loving the content, keep up the good work.
That's cause versh has antisynergy with sl since the class crits a lot on its own. positive potential for sl is much more important than crit buffs
@@myonwontstfu Oh I figured it out. But I just wanted to point it out to others just in case. Then they can help improve their DPS with no cost, while building a stronger weapon up the road. Though I do appreciate you pointing that out for others to see. Thank you for the addition.
verchzmels gunblade LOL
Argenti weapons... yeah, good for placeholder upgrade if you didn't do that much earlier or as it's intended purpose, for returners and newbies who are getting in the high levels.
Edit: The irony on me is the fact that I STILL use the good old seasonal Crystia Weapons despite how many better are released currently.
Aye same here! Started using one recently out of intrigue since it has the most Potential percentage.
Finally got my first flugelgard drop. 🙌 with a fixa.
Are people really paying 50-100m for these?
You based this video entirely on the data from the damage calculator. I would be more convinced if there was gameplay footage to back these claims up.
Lucked out and finally got my versch, To fixa 4 with help from support scratch the day after update lol i feel like im set for now
me too, I also think it's not worth it to get it to fixa 5 tho. the difference is just 1% crit damage so we're set until the 10 stars drop rate gets higher like the tisah rn
@@LuxDivina__ yeah fixa 5 feels like a "not necessary but if it happens then cool I'll take it" type of thing right now
It's good for the lazy people that only use seasonal weapons or don't update their gear in a really long time.
As for the people up-to-date with the gear they can use the set for duel quest I guess. I might do that, but trying to get older defi capsules is a pain in the neck
Yeah, I took a look at the Argenti Potential and tossed them in storage... The armor though, that was a gift for me as my armor has been *bad* for a long time now.
What about the armors compared to Octo with fixa?
Eftistant is 3.5% potency, 15HP and 2PP; Ajax is 3.5% potency 30HP 5PP and 1% damage resist; Octo is 4.5% potency 20HP; Octo dual stats is 4.5% potency 40HP 6PP. So the unit itself is a slightly weaker version of Ajax, which is not as bad compared to the weapon.
Funny how people are going to see this and believe it. Skill makes all the difference guys . Literally the same damage as others (non high fixa)with exception on 10 star
They are stronger than Neos and that's all I was using since I refuse to spend meseta on gear. These weapons don't suck, they're perfectly good for all content and for a solo player like me since all "endgame content" is completey gated by having friends or a tight knit group to play with, because 100% of endgame is extremely unfair to solo's and introverts and pug groups.
Kero, you could speak up about Greaga/Sechetyl users, since those are still good against current content somehow.
There is no real End Game Content save your Mesta use the free stuff to grind stuff we get New Weapons every other month it’s not a big deal 🤔🤓
Exactly spending meseta on anything but cosmetics is pointless
hey♪ Verchmelz are droping like candy in Leciel, ive got over 20 and half of em with a lv 2+ fixa: think they telling us GET THIS INSTEAD! on tech/PA crafting do at least LVL5 coz L6 n up change is slower, most of the chnge comes from L1 to L5 MOST cases
I had a feeling. I was testing it VS my shitty veshersmit weapon and the numbers looked lower than my veshersmit
Since you neglected to mention the Tisah series, I’ll add this.
The Argenti series is 51 Attack and between 32-36 Potential Potency behind the Tisah series.
Me with Verschmelz+70 with no potential 😅
I wonder if sega really peek into the player account
they just give it for new LC so people can hunt those pa custom material
that "Tisah Flexl Emotional Damage".... LMAO
i did 9k dps with my event weapon with fixa crit dmg 5 xd i was so happy (it was vs leciel or lucial or whatever the name of the quest is)
But I do like it when my attack battle power is now stronger.
I don't have free time to play this game like i used to working two jobs and prob get a hr off playtime maybe I've never heard of the Malek series tbh I'm glad they released things like this i don't care about meta.
Dang ok so as a slayer using a neos fixa 2 should I switch to a melek or Tisha
Thanks for confirming that I didn't waste all of my resources starting to grind my Ver Wand with Fixa1 up.
The free weapon is a good handout but I miss the verticality of my wired multi
Is Tisah better then melek? Wish i had the link to that doc in this video that way i could look it over.
I’ve got a termina 3 soon to be 5 melek gunblade now which is 21%-24% better than this base set so I’m happy I invested
The Argenti weapons don't help me at all against Dark Falz Solus. It takes too long to defeat him with them.
So, what you are saying is these are great for casual and/or unlucky players, and the hardcore and/or lucky players are still going to have better gear? Nothing to see here.
i aint new but im still gonna use argenti
Well its usable if you dont care about meta numbers you can atleast save up for lets say if sega decided to throw another weapon series wich they always do
Look at the tisah series now they are selling them for 10m and no one cared buying them coz fugel now exist
i have tested a lot of weapons and to be honest they all do about the same damage soi quit playing because nothing to work for
They’re great for alt characters.
i still confused, if im playing slayer, which is better weapon, Neos Astrean + Fixa Fatale 3 or Verschmel + Fixa Termina 1?
I believe Astraean will be the higher DPS for Slayer. Astraean would still be better even with just a fixa lvl 1.
@@Mole_King i see, thanks for the input, i'll keep using Astrean for now
Great aegmant.
Its for the people still using Revolcoat for some reason
i got today my 3. tisah and this time the rifle with termina 2. i checked it and yeah....trash too xd my verschmelz termina 4 is even better as a flugel...till the 3rd buff comes in.
"Tisah flexl emotional dmg"
Wat?
is that kind of samurai hat u wear is sell at personal shop?
Thank you for the timely vid. I came back to the game the day after maintenance and felt confused and irritated that they gave everyone something so powerful. I was skeptical there was more to it.
Is it better than seasonal weapons on non seasonal enemies?
theyre not supposed to be BIS my dude
They're okish but not as good as neos or fulgard or tisah
I've been giga grinding Leciel, Going for 3000 growthment already at 2000 since the update.
Bunger
The game sucks all together!! 😂
Kero you needed to make this video on day 1 or 2... You are way too late. I waste my "S" augments on 3 on these weapons :(
just tell Newbies to buy the last seasonal weapon that has potency & 10% crit rate. It's viable like a non-fixa Neos-astraean.
This video started off and ended kinda tone deaf. These weapons aren't trash nor do they suck. Devs will never give away free gear thats better than the stuff you can grind for. These weapons were never meant to outclass anything "comparable" they were CATCH UP weapons, gear designed to get people to end game so they can get the real gear. So you constantly saying these weapons are bad or mid is entirety disingenuous when anyone whos played an MMO knew exactly what the Argenti weapons were gonna be. Argenti isnt bad just not the best
The issue is 9* AND fixa attack 5 is very misleading, especially to casual players. They would automatically assume the weapon should not be far behind a regular 9*, but its base stats is weaker than a 5* Cinquem.
Surprise, surprise... What do you expect for something free? It is pretty obvious
for every player who use argenti weapon and free armor from the sega with 24% all potency, please don't just casually doing the "planet breaker" quest. Not the UQ but the quest where we fight DFS lvl 75. Why I say this, it's because they all a burden. I remember I fight DFS lvl 75 with my 156% potency and Im in the group of 3 player using this "return player equipment". From that I never complete the quest because it doesn't have enough dps and I already using my RDR item. For a solo player like me who doesn't have friends to play, honestly it's annoying for me because it was a waste of time. Sorry if I sound aggrassive, hope people understand what I mean. Thank you...
Dude, for real, stop saying "TLDR" it doesn't suit you...
