    Talk to everyone with a question mark over their head, if you've found them all when you go back to Trunks he'll have a question mark over his head.

    Took me a couple runs around the hub because I had missed one or two

    So I'm grinding this PQ over and over again, and it's a low level one so I'm not really gaining much xp or zeni for it and even for a low level character you quickly reach the point where you're killing everything inside of a single combo, and the item comes from the ultimate unlock which doesn't even happen all the time so I'm like double RNG fucked and man this drop system is teeeeeerrible.

    And like you said, drops are "account-wide", but that just makes the fact that I can get Vegeta's pants a dozen times instead of the item I actually want totally ridiculous, since the only stuff that greys out after it drops are techniques.

    Yeah this is the same problem I was having

    I have heard Vegeta, Nappa, and Raditz say "dammit" over 100 times

    If you get a Z-Rank and complete the mystery conditions for a PQ you should just, get the dang item

    I get that the Budokai series captures the spirity of the show, but I could never get into them gameplay wise.

    I loved the 2D Tenkiachi series though, speacially the 3rd one, wished they would go back to that.

    Or an HD remake of Dragonball Z: Legend

    At the very least, the drop rate should dramatically increase if you do a PQ solo

    Anyone managed to unlocked Super Vegeta yet? It's the last 3 star parallel quest. I get the general flow:

    - Beat the mooks up
    - When 1st Stage Frieza shows, run to the portal
    - Recruit Krillin
    - Let Krillin get his ass beat by Frieza
    - Goku shows up, goes SSJ.
    - Knock around Frieza until he changes into Final Form, Full Power
    - Vegeta Shows up?
    ????
    - Profit!

    I watched some videos, and it seems like he goes SSJ after you defeat Frieza...but that never happens in mine.

    Does your created character become Vegeta?

    This one is massively frustrating. I farmed this for a long time. I've come to the conclusion that Vegeta going SSJ is either entirely random or Vegeta needs to KO Frieza to go SSJ. He went SSJ one time after KOing Frieza so I was going to test it but Vegeta is so weak compared to Goku and not aggressive at all so it was really hard to test it.

    I'm jealous of my brother, the first time he got Vegeta to go SSJ and beat him he got Super Vegeta.

    Super Vegeta is the same as Super Saiyan except it gives bonus damage to Super Ki Blasts.

    Super Vegeta is the in between stage between Super sayian 1 and 2.
    Its ultimately worthless because it doesnt increase speed just power

    I'd take it for the increased Ki Power Attacks.

    I love stacking up buffs. Currently I use Vegeta's Z-soul that buffs Galick gun, plus Kaioken and the Ginyu Pose A. I can knock out a ton of a boss's health with a direct hit. It's pretty great.

    Also...help on one other thing. What's with me seeing a bunch of user-made characters sitting around the city? I can't interact with them...so what's the point?

    Yeah, pressing "Y"/"Triangle" on the console lets you see their equipment and if you're LFG, you can hire them as NPC allies for a PQ.

    Unfortunately there's a fee involved for the higher level guys (though that might scale to your level, since I think at 15, I can hire 1/5/10s for free).

    It might go without saying, but fighting Krillin in his final training mission did not prepare me for this

    So, I have no way to prove this, but I am betting that the way it rolls to see if you found a Dragonball is that it rolls to see which one you got, and if you already have that one you get another material item instead.

    Because this seventh one is proving pretty elusive.

    Ok, I am thoroughly enjoying the story so far. Mind you, some of these fights are way harder than later fights.

    Such as the last Mira fight, my God that kicked my arse for so long.

    I love the inclusion of movie-enemies. Good idea!

    Unlocked a character with my first wish

    Not really impressed

    His supers do a ton of damage and one of them basically feels like an ultimate on a super, sure, but his basic attack combo is kind of bad, his supers take forever to activate, and he has no way to charge ki quickly like SSJ4 Vegeta

    Starting over with a new character seems to have done wonders for my viability

    Now playing a Saiyan with SSJ and Piccolo skills + Gallic Gun/Vegeta's first Ultimate, and I smeared a few fights that were hassling me before at half the level. Putting major points into Ki Super is so much better for 1vX PvE. Before I was splitting things fairly evenly between Ki, Stamina, Attack, Health, and Ki Super, which left me too weak to dump on big groups and hardy solo enemies. Once I get strong enough to safely farm out Super Vegeta, I will be a golden god

    I have zero points into ki blasts so mine aren't too impressive but I feel like my strike supers aren't that powerful and I have 50 points into it. Might just be me but I've played with people and their ki blasts utterly wrecked enemies. It kind of makes me want to make my Saiyan a Ki Blast character instead of Strike character.

    Strikes/Stamina seems ideal for 1v1, which isn't really a reliable matchup in PvE

    You can get some insane combos going with XXXYY launchers and lots of points in Attack/Strike

    Yea, I definitely do better in 1v1. When I have teammates it makes it a bit difficult for me to land stuff since basic ki blasts can knock my target out of my super. I also have to do a lot of hit and run stuff on multiple enemies, the six buu enemies was rough. I had to keep going in on one and doing a big combo and then running away. I do use ki blast attacks still just because they are still useful and the damage isn't terrible. I have also have a whole lot more ki blast attacks compared to my strike attacks.

    So everytime my Frieza race fights Cell, he says he doesn't need anymore information about the Frost Demons.

    Is this from a movie or something? Because Frost Demon sounds a lot better than Frieza race.

    It's a reference to a fan webcomic called Dragonball Multiverse

    Which is actually really cool

    The premise is that a tournament is being held between a bunch of different universes that are based on different what if scenarios

    So like in one universe vegeto never de-fused, so bra is insanely strong

    Or in another the Saiyans were never conquered by Frieza, which left them primitive and weak

    Or then there's one where Majin Buu absorbed every single person in the universe

    It helps that the art is a dead ringer for toriyama's

    The only kind of iffy thing about it is that it's not originally written in English (I thiiiiiiiink the writer is Brazilian?) and the translation isn't great

    But if you can get past that then you should check it out, it's super awesome

    Man, I conceded the "fuck rng" point because, yeah, that sucks, but I think I was less hot about it than you guys because for the first like three days the game gave me everything I could have wanted. Now, it is being stingy and uuuggghhh.

    Except, apparently the hidden conditions are also random triggers. Fuck. That. I've been obliterating Frieza in 40 seconds, but the hidden condition of win in three minutes, still won't go off.

  • MaddocMaddoc I'm Bobbin Threadbare, are you my mother? Registered User regular

    Thank you for introducing me to this.

    I just spent the last 2 hours watching the animated version on youtube. Up to episode 15 in French with English subs.

    Just started reading the manga. Turns out there's way more depth in the manga. Bra(Such a dumb name) is awesome.
