P.S: I am on PS3.

Emperor's Death Beam with Super Vegeta 2 just destroys everything. I might wanna change Z souls depending on how "Might as well" was effected. Any suggestions?

This. I did a parallel quest with some dude who used both of those in succession and wrecked everything. Literally sat back and watched... as Golden Freeza ironically.

How do I get all the basic rewards from each PQ? Do they drop by chance? Does the rank I get, or if I get Ultimate Finish, have anything to do with them?

Some are randomly-generated, some are triggered by specific actions in the PQ. I think.

I noticed a couple of fishy things with the SSJ forms after the patch, so I'm going to run some tests to see if there have been any changes. Will report my findings once I'm done.

You might check if its ki regen is still there. If not, than Golden Freeza's Z-Soul is pretty good. Has good auto-regen and it boosts your stats as well as give you health recovery when your health hits 50%. The effect also doesn't deactivate when you go above 50% health.

Also, apparently SSGSS Vegeta's Z-Soul knocks ki to 0 and keeps it from rising for a short time. Don't know if it bypasses "You can be the first victim," but if it does goodbye spammers. I'm wondering if SSGSS Goku's Z-Soul does the same thing for Stamina. If it does...

[Zelvin]

Well I am finding Elder Kai's 1st Z-Soul to be rather worthless. "Hmm Hmmm Hmmm!" only activates its boons 2:45 into the match/pq. It's decent for dealing with PQ's that take a long time to complete. But is absolutely useless for PVP. Matches tend to barely last 30sec, maybe a full minute if you're good. Anything over that and it's just not feasible. So, Elder Kai's 1st Z-Soul is pretty much garbage. Hopefully the rest of what he has to offer is better.

And I agree, Emperor's Death Beam is quite insane. It was effective even on a toon not specced into Ki Blast Supers. Once I stick it on a Saiyan with Blast Supers it's gonna go be grievously OP.

I have his Z soul...but I never noticed the ki regen. I just sat around and it looked like it was barely moving.

As much as I DESPISE those unoriginal Blueper Saiyans and Golden Freeza form, they're attacks and auras are freaking cool.

The beginning of the game with Gine:

Elder Kaioshin's training is going to take forever. After playing for a while now with a 99% S or Z rank average on missions, his mentor meter has still only moved like a pixel. Normally the other mentors would at least be close to the second quest by now.

It took me a while to see any change, but once I did I got to the second quest soon after. It was weird.

Also Old Kaioshin's "best luck" is great.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Speaking of Elder Kaioshin's luck raising RNG schtick, I just had the best Xenoverse quest experience...

I still needed Super Gyarick Gun and Warp Kamehameha, so when I got the fortune response from him, I decided it was time to attempt the Eternal Rivals quest again. So I entered a room and we started the match. Everything went smooth until Gogeta showed up, and he kinda did some damage since he doesn't really take knockbacks. We managed to defeat him with teamwork and an item or two though. The SSGSS duo wrecked us...

It got down to the point where there was only one of us alive at any given time, struggling to survive while we revived each other. One of the guys managed to use his escape move and blow the SSGSS duo away and revive the third teammate, and then he came to revive me. I acted as a decoy and drew Goku and Vegeta away, and all three of us were back up. Goku only had a couple of hits worth of damage left, so I flew into both of them. I managed to kill him before Vegeta was able to attack me from behind, but by that point, my teammates were back. We just kept taking turns firing ultimates at him (half of which he blocked). We were down to the last 30 seconds with him having half his last meter left. Vegeta's yelling about how impossible this is while Guy A charges him with the Broli dash blast move. Once it's over, I launch him with Nappa's explosion move and then Guy B catches him in the air with Emperor's Death Beam right before the clock runs out. xD

I'm about to hit level 82 so if you need help grinding let me in on it. Both my basic attack and melee supers are nearly maxed.

Wait so Warp Kame, Super Galick Gun, and Emperor Death Beam weren't automatically given to you TheDevilCorpse? That's odd. I got them as soon as I got in game after getting the patch and DLC installed.

Anyway, I'm terribly disappointed with Warp Kamehameha and Super Galick Gun. The former doesn't do a lot of damage and its hitbox is a bit iffy (doesn't do damage to opponent's who are right next to you apparently) while the latter takes way too long to charge for the extra damage, which in hindsight sucks nonetheless. It saddens me particularly for Warp Kamehameha because that has been a favorite skill of mine since Budokai 2.

Also, SSGSS Goku and Vegeta's Z-Souls are definitely going to cause some rage hate due to their effects. Goku's greatly decreases your opponent's Stamina while Vegeta's makes your opponent's ki hit 0 and prevents it from rising for a short time (it might also counter "You Can Be The First Victim).

I have his Z soul...but I never noticed the ki regen. I just sat around and it looked like it was barely moving.

Yeah it has auto regen as it says in the description, and it's much better at making transformations last longer than other auto regen Z-Souls. Even if it isn't, you'll definitely notice the stat boost once it activates once your health hits 50%. The health recovery sucks though, but that's a given.

[Daimo-Rukiri]

Has anyone noticed stuttering as of late, it's gotten pretty bad...
The only thing I've done recently to my PC is upgrade my GPU to a Titan-X but I hardly doubt that's the problem as it ran fine after the upgrade. I haven't played the game since April though but still, it seems this has been common since the last update.

So it only works once I hit 50 percent health? Cause I remember just moving around to test how fast the regain is...and it was ball busting slow.

No. The only content from Pack 3 that I haven't had to work for is the characters themselves and the Roshi gear. I've had to get all the clothing, the attacks, the Z-Souls, etc as per the usual. With Warp Kamehameha, Unlock Potential and any other Z-Souls that Elder Kaioshin might offer beyond the second master quest (the Time Patroller one) still currently escaping my grasp.

[Lord Beerus]

Unlocked Potential is broken when used on the Earthling race. When you take into consideration the constant ki recovery ability that the earthlings have, this results in canceling out the slow ki draining effect that Unlock Potential has. So the transformation/power up is effectively infinite on earthlings. This has officially made the Saiyan race, along with practically every other race in the game, worthless in comparison. Man, they really need to nerf the Earthling race, if not now, then definitely in Xenoverse 2.

Also, Unlock Potential + "Guess we have to fusion into Vegito" Z-Soul gives a pretty big stat boost.

This is what I have been bitching about the entire time. They go ahead and make balancing changes (which are mostly questionable I might add) to skills and Z-Souls, and yet they have never bothered to work on the races despite knowing how broken some of them are. Making Unlock Potential the way it is just made Earthlings into game breakers now, which is flat out stupid. Either they need to rebalance races (Saiyans and Female Majins really need to be buffed) or not make the same mistake in Xenoverse 2. Wish I could get direct contact with them so I can at least rant about it. Might not get their attention, but at least it would let off some steam.
