I lost to the timer a lot of times too. It's annoying how they just go "no selling" your attacks!
Golden Frieza Form owns the expert bosses, unless you get to the later stages where they start doing that tornado sheers attack that unless you're doing an ultimate attack kicks your ass.

The frieza death beam ki blast absolutely destroys apes in four hits.

THe worst thing about Expert missions for me is that the later levels have the boss throw their giant ki blast and one fo two things happen:
The blast goes out of bounds
You're there pushing back the blast while the boss goes away to fuck your team mates up and is not damaged when you reflect it
At least the #16 and #17 expert missions are VERY easy. Hahaha... But, yes... It's annoying when they throw the giant energy ball and just ignore it when you push it back. Luckly it only happened once.

Hell, I had a moment where the boss and a team mate were blasted out of the map. So they had to fight right above u until eventually the Boss came down to chase the downed team mate.

Now that sucks! I had a moment where Mira (Final Form) has just a tad bit of HP left and then he wipped out everyone, but me! I got desperate and tried to hit him with anything, because he was literally one hit away from KO, but he kept on avoiding it and beating me down, until the clock ran out and I got absolutely mad! hahaha

Okay, I am slightly more mollified now. My PS4 has arrived, and as far as I can tell, I'm just about done with it's setup stuff and about to get started on the game! I. Am. Excite.

Edit: So, I put in my Day One code for Goku Black and the Tao Pillar...can't say for sure on Goku Black yet, but there doesn't seem to be a Tao Pillar I can choose for my vehicle yet, just the little hoverboard thing the Supreme Kai of Time gives you. The DLC flat out isn't showing up in my 'Downloads' option to install it either. I think I recall others having had this problem from when I was just browsing the thread - how do you fix it?

... And I now find myself with yet another difficult, this time with the last Parallel Quest. I'd like to have Movie 15's Vegeta outfit but getting it is probably out of cogitation. Even with Metal Cooler (the one who helped me pass through Expert Mission 15) it seems I won't get it. Although playing with him I manage to kill all Gokus and Vegetas in time for their Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan to appear, Metal Cooler's hits does little damage on them. The other two in my team are already dead by the time I get to Goku and Vegeta as Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan.

Well I used the NPCs only as decoys while I beat everything out of them myself with my male Saiyajin with 125 in base damage. And of course Energycapsule Z, Group Energycapsule Z, Group Regencapsule L and Senzu Essence Capsule. You just have to time it right, when to use them (and you have to revive fallen members quickly). I find the quest itself rather easy but it takes time of course. Luckily you don't have to beat both most of the time. Once one is (almost) down they switch to the next level/fusion. Only as SSBs you have to defeat them both. And if one is down the other follows short after.

Anyway, I managed to max out all Master gauges today. Didn't happen anything, except now I have all pictures for my profile and some background information (like: Turles last official mission appeared to be an undercover mission according to Vegeta (yet Turles himself forgot Freezas last order since it was " a long time ago") or that Radditz tail was weak because he ALWAYS skipped "Tail Day" according to Nappa). So nothing really big, but now I can choose freely any Master I want and can take any character to any PQ without thinking about maxing these gauges.

Oh, I did it rather quick by simply replaying all their lessons again and again (mostly the first trial, because it's (almost) always the quickest). I know you don't gain anything from those but I noticed a fair increase in the "Master-meter" everytime (of course said Master must be your "active" master for that).

Got Goku Black and the Tao Pillar, just had to restart my system. Now I'm working my way through Elder Kai's game mechanic training, and I'm quickly developing a hatred for the final training of that one. A deep, seething hatred.

Tip: Start inputting the Stamina Break as soon as the camera is about to change the views. You kinda have to buffer it a bit.

[spoiler]1) How much life is shaved off when becoming a Supervillain?

2) Which villain was the most challenging of them all?

You don't actually need to Spoiler this.
1) There wasn't a specific amount given. Presumably only a small fragment, because the Supervillains don't act as if they're dying or anything.
2) For me personally, it was Final Form Cooler and Final Form Mira.
3) Unfortunately, Black doesn't have any special dialogue in the game.

Not trying to sound like a douche or brag but was the final combo mission really that hard for so many people? I personally got it down in about 13 or so tries. Hearing some people took hours to do it just seems weird.

I got it down after 10 minutes. Didn't find it hard at all. Just giving a tip that will help people out because the camera switch will confuse some.

Alright Namco really needs to get on this issue with having to start over everything with each character. Even characters locked by wishes are removed on different characters. There is no way in hell I am wishing for Hit over 8 times.

Dammit, every time, after 20 minutes of playing, the Xenoverse server shuts down!
That's currently my main issue with the game :evil:

And you're lucky. I still can't even log into the multiplayer lobby that I get continuously kicked out.

It's pretty much that camera change that's getting me I think, yeah. It keeps not wanting to register the stamina break as hitting, so that when it does connect, I'm barely ready to start inputting the other commands. The closest I've gotten is right to the final two inputs, and the second one fails to connect the way it seems to want to so that even though I fire off the final one, no dice. It's. Maddening. :crazy:

Ended up moving on from that for the time being at least though - I only got through the Raditz fight in terms of story last night, mostly because there's so many other things to go ahead and run around and do around the city, holy crap. I was legit not expecting that. So far, I've already completed Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, and Piccolo's training too. And I think I'm at about Lv.20+ already to boot.

So far for that MMO model I think... I've finished the story mode, most of the quests (Satan and Buu remain) and ton of stuff, but I haven't played online at all.

It would've been cool if they allowed the ability to make guilds/clans on this game. Hoping we see that in the next game. I still have a ton of stuff to do thought. Beat the story, and now trying to focus finishing up with the trainers and getting all PQs. And the Expert Missions are actually tough!

It sucks that we have to wait for DLC Pack 1 until everything is finished.
I understand that they are likely still developing Kyabe and Frost, but can't they release for an example SSJ-Vegeta/Goku in Whis' Gi via update?
