Omniscience Beyond Genesis

New content is coming with the Winter update: Omniscience Beyond Genesis, including the the Super Genesis Festival, the battle with the boss: Ruine Luther, and new 14 star Rarity weapons in December, followed by the release of Neon City as a February Field update. There are a lot of things planned that didn't appear in the video.

Omniscience Beyond Genesis

In the last Headline Wave, a special 25th anniversary video was shared. They will also be adding 25th anniversary content to NGS. Expect to see the Raguo Rappy, the 25th anniversary Rappy based on the original Rag Rappy, and the colossal boss Ruine Luther, who will perform actions reminiscent of Dark Falz and Olga Flow from PSO. In addition, the music used in the video is a new piece by sound director Kobayashi. A music disc of the song will be available as a New Year's Login bonus in January.

Legend Series Upgrade and ARche Weapon Series

Upgrades for Legend weapons will be implemented in December. Upgrading will significantly improve attack performance and will \bump up the rarity to Legend.3.

Legend.3 weapons will be second only to 14 star weapons in performance and are an ideal way to bridge the gap as you aim for your own 14 star weapon.

In addition, since the Twaalv series has characteristics that support other players, these weapons will also be eligible for an upgrade to Legend.3. For players who haven't yet managed to snag a legend weapon, you can get the Twaalv AT series, which boasts equivalent performance.

The 14 star Arche Weapon series is modeled on a weapon that appeared in PSO. You can get it in the limited time Luther Emergency Quest. This weapon series is compatible with EX styles and has an effect that makes it easier to use Photon blasts once certain conditions are met.

It should be of no surprise that the performance of these 14 star weapons, significantly exceeds the that of the 13 star Zenit series.

It is difficult to maintain Team Mag Boost effects with a small team,
are tehre any plans to improve this?

They plan to increase the number of N-Team points available from Team Tasks with the December update.

It's cumbersome to manually input the same values when you want to set multiple things in the Salon to the same color. Are there plans to improve this?

They are considering adding a feature to allow copy and pasting of color information. Please stay tuned for further information.
