PSO2es Maintenance

  • 9/24/2015 @ 10:55 ~ 17:30 JST
  • 9/23/2015 @ 9:55 PM ~ 4:30 AM EDT

Concerning Weapon Boosts (Mid-October's Update)

Even if you're the most unluckiest person in the world, there are other ways to fill some of the gaps in your weapons collection.

  • Matter Board: Don't forget there are ★10+ weapons you can pick up from the Matter Board.
  • Exchange Shops: Trade in those stones you have lying around and retrieve some of the weapons listed in the Pyroxene Shop, etc.

Be sure to check your Weapons Collection list before going out to hunt for a weapon you've already found. You can see the current list by clicking the [Library List] section in the Visiphone.

Also to note, although Gunslashes aren't technically in the requirements, they too will get boosted from the Title Reward.

However, when the PS4 version comes out, PC players will receive a 6th graphical stage, allowing them to enjoy the game with the same quality as the PS4 version.
  • PSO2 The Animation revealed a few new characters, "Kota," the main character's best friend, "Mika," a student council treasurer, and "SORO," a Cast known as the "Lone Warrior." How punny!
