PSO2 Station #17 Recap

Warning! This post is updating in real time!
Please take note as the information below is subject to change.

March 3rd Livestream

 

 

Doing a livestream during a nor'easter power outage is tough, so please bear with us.

Late March Update Schedule Change

  • Normally the update would be scheduled to appear on March 21st, but due to a national holiday, it has been pushed back to March 22nd.
  • This update will release the new Story Events with Luther, (which for some reason Winged Darkers start to appear on Omega)
  • The Premium Set bonuses will be arriving on this day, with screen filters and light source settings.

Stra(te)geo Series

  • We're going to call it Strategeo so it matches up with Tactio.
  • Stategeo's Potential: Critical Rate and Critical Damage Up
  • Strategeo Factor? : PP Recovery when enemies die nearby.

New Year Carnival Rewards: March 14th ~ March 22nd

  • The Enchanted Forest and Menacing Castle will be returning.
  • Various Boosts, Weapon Camo Rewards, and SG Rewards.

Beginning Enemy HP Adjustments (Late March)

Thanks to all those buffs, it appears that the gap between player and enemy strength at the beginning of the game is widening even more. So to combat this, the following changes will occur

  • LV1 ~ LV 39 enemies will have increased HP.
  • For [Easy Mode] in the Story, they won't try to raise it too much.
  • Since the early portion of Challenge Quests will become difficult, they'll buff the power of PAs and Barehanded attacks.

New Extreme Quest

  • Half Dolls, Scape Dolls, and Dark Blasts are banned.
  • To earn the Expert Player Status, you must clear this quest.
  • HP will change based on number of people in the party.
  • Invade-NTs can drop.

Solo Extreme Quest

  • Invade is more likely to drop.
  • You can obtain Conqueror's Crest through Titles

Austere-NT

  • One day in the future, you'll be able to evolve your Invade-NT into Austere-NT.
  • It may go like this [Invade-NT] + [Some Exchange Item] = Austere-NT
  • Your old-type Austere won't be left out in the cold because they have stuff planned for them as well

PSO2 Switch Version

  • The switch version will indeed support the 3 button method.

Chronos Drop Rates

  • Before the ★14 drop rate buff, Chronos dropped approximately once per week. But after the changes, it appeared to drop around 20 times a week.

★14 Weapon Drops For Each Category

  • By the time Summer rolls around, there should be a ★14 drop for every weapon category.

★14 Conqueror's Crest Exchange

  • The Conqueror Crest ★14 Weapons are indeed intended to be
    +30 Grind Cap as listed on the exchange

Step Jump Charm

  • They are wondering whether to make Step Jump a class skill, or more preferably, a charm. It will take some time before announcing what exactly they plan to do.
  • However, rather than making it a class skill, they could instead just make it a charm. The idea would be to show off the skill ring to get the charm. (In a similar fashion to Vraolet and Monkey King Bar)

 

My Character Figure Dark Blast

This summer, the development team plans to implement Dark Blasts in a different style. In this version, the dark blast will be transparent, allowing your character to be seen. It is currently under development so expect to see some changes before implementation.
