    I'm finding that not many armor options are good for ki users.

    As a strike character I feel the opposite way

    Yeah, nothing in the shop really feels like it compares to the 4-star stuff for Ki users

    Gotta go figure out which are the best armors for strikers and farm whatever PQ that happens to be

    Also MAN, I know the CPU needs to cheat a little bit to keep things interesting, but infinite ki forever is not an awesome way to do that because sometimes the AI decides it just wants to spam ultimates continuously

    You get some strike gear for finishing all the storyline missions i believe.

    You get it from one of the robots in Tokitoki City, he'll have a marker on his head

    Bardock's gear is also really good, it boosts stamina, basic attack and strike supers

    I got the Super Spirit Bomb. That move is stupidly powerful. It is wonderful.

    I want to farm the third DLC PQ for the Power Pole Combo and Scissors Paper Rock but that PQ is so annoying to do. SSJ Vegeta and Goku do so much damage.

    Edit: Scissors Paper Rock is an awful skill so far. I wish I could delete it.

    The second hardest part of the Bardock mission is this

    The first hardest part is Bardock staying alive.

    @Bucketman did you get Super Drain? Super Drain + Kaioken 20x is the light

    Where's the Super Drain from? I have the Kaioken x20 for my character.

    Uhhh I don't remember what the PQ number is but it's the one where you're collecting dragonballs and the enemies listed are Cell Jr's. It drops off the ultimate finish requirement I believe, which is
    Cell shows up at the end

    The move itself seems to count as a grab (it lands through blocking?) and refills your stamina meter with your enemy's.

    You can keep Kaioken going for a loooooong time

    Pretty sure you can buy Super Drain. The only drain type skills you can't buy is the one that drains Ki and the one that drains both ki and stamina.

    I feel like I'm having trouble around level 40 now with pqs and story, and I think it's because I'm all ki attacks and my attacks suck

    A ki build makes the game a lot easier. At around the part I think you might be at for level 40 the game gets massively harder out of no where.

    I've had Vegeta as my mentor and holy crap how many times does he get another health bar on the Master mission? I've whittled his Super Saiyan 2 health bar down and whoops he's at full health again.

    I should probably be higher than 32, huh?

    I wish I had friends to play with on PS4. I should have bought it on PC though I'm not sure my PC can handle it. It seems like my friends that I play with on the PS4 no longer share my interest in games.

    I was lower level than that when I finished

    But it was a real fuckfest, and I had to bring all three kinds of healing items to make it through

    Health is at 16, 20 in Ki (just enough for a 4th bar) and 26 each in Stamina and Basic Attacks

  • Options
    PlatyPlaty Registered User regular
    Your Ki and Stamina will stop passively increasing after a while, after that it's 25 for a full bar (without items)

    You generally don't want huge amounts of Ki unless maybe you're a Saiyan - you can make use of your bars as they become available, your human racial ability will also kick in sooner if you roll with a lower maximum Ki

    Whether points in Basic Attacks are worth it for a Ki-focused build is tricky, mostly because of lacking item options for such a build (up and down arrows also affect your stats more when they're higher) - you might wanna look at your playstyle, if you mostly hang back and charge your Ki, having points in Basic Attack might not be worth it

  • Options
    YukiraYukira Registered User regular
    Oh, I've been jacking up Ki, Stamina, Health and Ki Supers.

    I'm at level 33 and have over 20 in each. I need to level a bit more.

    Also.

    One thing I didn't know about Majin: in addition to taking less damage when they're at full stamina, they apparently get one charge of Super Armor every twenty seconds

    Which means they won't flinch after taking the first hit and can retaliate by immediately hitting back (or won't get interrupted if they get hit by an attack during windup)

    There's a (somewhat broken) abiliy in the game which can grant you near-constant Super Armor, but that's pretty cool

    Been playing a lot of this recently. Ki blast Namekian, currently trying to get through story mode with iffy infinites (they need to already be close to the ground) and z-soul boosted galick guns (at least Namekians regenerate health).
    Some of these fights were pure bullshit though. Basically any fight where I need to keep someone alive since I kind of take a while to win, and also five small Majin Buus seriously.

    up until (post real-story spoilers about a mission you unlock after you've beat the game)
    the Bardock mission, I seriously thought the 5 mini buu fight was the hardest overall encounter in the game.

    But keeping Bardock alive is some bulllllllllllllshit

    They actually handled this really well.

    His moves suck. Like, they do not do good damage.

    But they make up for it in having hilariously good utility.
