Might definitely try switching to her to see if I can get it to increase clothing drop rates (even though I'm fairly sure that's never been effected much by Elder Kai's predictions) though, since a lot of those I still need are also included in earlier missions.

At any rate, I'm down to just four moves now, cuz it turns out my count from earlier was a bit off.

1. Riot Javelin
2. Warp Kamehameha
3. Super Galick Gun

The fourth one has gotta be one that I need to wish for, because I don't have the first clue what it is, and it's an Ultimate. Thankfully my escapades getting these other skills has left me only two Balls away from the full set, so that will be easy enough to get to when the time is right as well. The latter two on my list though are gonna be a pain...that mission against Goku and Vegeta in their various forms really kicks my ass half the time. I wasn't even able to beat the mission at all until recently when I got past the 90's in level, so the thought of having to grind that one a bajillion times...argggghhh. Really hoping the game has mercy (hahahahaha...) and at least drops both skills at once for me whenever that one does drop.

The ultimate move wish will give you Super 17's ult. Wishing again gives you Super Yi Xing Long's.

Must be whatever the Dragon's move is that I'm missing via wish then.

Got Riot Javelin finally, so that just leaves the mission I dread...I'm thinking I'm not even gonna try it until I get Golden Fruit predictions, cuz I don't know how many times I can replay that freakin' mission, argh.

Apologies for the double post, but YES! YES YES YES YES YEEEESSSS! FINALLY got Warp Kamehameha to drop after an earlier attempt at that PQ only dropped Super Galick Gun, so now I'm only missing one move, and that's just an easy matter of getting two more Dragon Balls. And the best part is there are no outfit pieces in that PQ, so I don't have to play that one ever again.

Good god that was excruciating.

Edit: And the Dragon Balls have been gathered, and the wish made - I now have every skill in the game! ...Now excuse me while I collapse onto the ground.

That just leaves outfit pieces, of which I think I have like 60+ that I need, not even counting the Saiyuki one you have to wish for...I dunno if I'm up for that just yet.

Trust me your gonna love grinding for Vegetto's clothes, You gotta trigger an ultimate finish which in of itself is BS RNG then you have to pray to RNGsus that it actually drops any clothing and then you have a 1 in 4 chance of it actually being the piece your after.

Before Elder kai was available with his Golden Fruit predictions it took me a week of nothing but that mission to get all 4 pieces... Never again

Wait, so Elder Kai's fruit predictions can effect clothing drops too? I thought it was just skills and Z souls, cuz I sure hadn't really noticed it making clothing drop any better (then again, that was also when I was more specifically going after skills, so maybe it was actually prioritizing skills itself?). Argh, while that's also gonna help, that might also be a bit more of a pain cuz I'll have to go talk to him again and again still. @_@

I actually don't know if his fruit predictions effect clothing to be honest. I actually acquired all the clothing in the game before I got training from him.

Congrats, Gyt Caliba! That's seriously one impressive feat. I've been working on and off 100%ing this game since it's release, but haven't played since December. In light of your accomplishment, along with the (off-topic, super unofficial, totally could not even be related to Xenoverse) video game hype surrounding May 17th's announcement, I thought it would be fun to post images of raw stats!

Scroll down to the spoiler box if you wanna skip my personal experience with this game.

I pre-ordered Dragon Ball Xenoverse for the PC and on day ONE I found it to be a very mixed bag. Lots of cool stuff mixed with a not so great RNG system and questionable fighting game mechanics. The negativity eventually sort of... washed away, however. The arcade-like gameplay really grew on me, once I dropped the "fighting genre" perspective. The visuals are better than I expected and the customization nails the small details not only in design, but categorization. The story was excellent, in that it served exactly what I had always wanted: inject my hella rad OC into a Dragon Ball story right alongside Son Goku and pals. The character specific dialogue was a lovely treat.

I played through the entirety of the story mode with a light-tall Namekian build, without paying attention to any "hidden" racial stats that were unexplained in-game. I only utilized what the game gave me, so for those of you familiar with Xenoverse - you can understand just how little information is given. Lots and lots of quest grinding brought me to a satisfactory level for defeating Demigra. After unlocking my extra character slots, I decided to create a game-breaker. Lemme be clear: I solo'd the entire game, quests and everything. Random online teammates for quests were unreliable at best and the online versus battles were absolute nonsense. I cannot give two shits about the competitive aspects of Xenoverse. If I wanna feel like an overpowered ki god trapped in a Saiyan girl's body that spends her spare time vaporizing Broly over and over for hours, gaining experience and Zenny like mad... by Kami, I'm gonna.

And I did. You could say that I cheesed the hell out of DBX... but really, who's the one getting cheesed here? The RNG in Dragon Ball Xenoverse reaches dangerously cheesy levels of player struggle/satisfaction, no matter how hard I break this game. With or without Elder Kai, there were some ten hour days along the way that I wrapped up with maybe one or two new equips... some days zero. It rivals Destiny for amount of time wasted on obtaining a drop any player deems worth playing for... however long. Everybody's experience is gonna be very different, no question. ...though, I shouldn't have to explain any more than I have, folks. Not after a 788 page thread. :lol: That being said... Steam currently has my play time logged at 223 hours. My Namekian sits at a gentle Level 82 and my Saiyan's power is maximum at Level 99. I love this game. Yes, it needs to be balanced. Yes, there are some quests that made me rage out. Yes, the RNG is infuriatingly unfair. Yes, it needs more characters, equipment, skills... EVERYTHING. No, Xenoverse is not comparable alongside similarly genre'd games (or even it's own franchise's predecessors)... but damn, is it my favorite Dragon Ball video game by a mile and some.

Self-fulfilling novelization aside, here's my stat dump. I'm ditching my solo-only attitude from here on out... the last few quests shown below are absolutely unforgiving in difficulty and I would appreciate some time patrolling friends to accompany me in bumping those few remaining S-Ranks into some sexy Z's. If you're down to clown on Steam, the ID is shinlunaar. See you 'round.

I agree with this whole-heartedly! Damn it's a flawed game, but maaaan do I love it nonetheless.

So far I haven't found any plotholes. Generally awesome game with a ton of features packed into it. Main problem is the typos... (so many typos...)

Gamestop had the game and DLC on sale for Steam today. Less than half of the normal combined price, so I bit the bullet and rebought it in preparation for Xenoverse 2. I can't really play it yet, because my computer sucks, but I hope to rectify that in the next few months.

My only major complaint is that you can't legitimately obtain SS4 Vegeta anymore. So, I'll have to look into a more dubious method. :/

Hey guys! I should have just asked this here instead of anywhere else...But I noticed about a week ago there was a character just standing around called DBZGamesInc or something like that and the person had a gold bat beside their name.(you know like the tournament belt bat?) how did they get it? every time I try to enter into tournaments online it doesn't seem to let me?
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

So, this was a thing the official DB Games Twitter account just posted. On the Xenoverse 2 website, you can download a wallpaper of the tournament champions?

Damn. Makes me wish i'd won, but I stopped playing the tournament because it was practically just ranked matches. (Spammers and all.)
