"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE" Official Discussion Thread

Yeah getting All the Z-Souls and outfits was a pain. When I picked up the game again on PC I just modded everything I wanted into the game because screw grinding all over again.

Oh and here's a lol something I threw together over the weekend

Don't blame ya for modding
And hey good work you did in that video, I gotta say your character looks awesome and that's one cool af intro too. Nice Kikuchi music placement as well, I left a like

My first character was a Freeza race member and he looked like...well..shit. But I will cherish him so :').

Oh yeah, I have definitely since realized that it's a horribly evil and uneven grindfest no matter what you do. It's not as bad as it was when the game first came out though, doesn't feel like, so I feel like they've done some patching to at least make it relatively livable too. When it first came out, I essentially played through everything and didn't stop until a good while after the last DLC pack came out, so...yeah. The large number of things left for me to get is evidence of how bad droprates were then. *shudder*

There is no way I'm trying for all the Z-souls (the only way I'd ever bother with that is if we really didn't get a sequel and this remained my new go-to DB game for a long, long time or something), but I do want all the outfit pieces. The really scary part on that one is I might actually need multiples of some of those, cuz I want to have various unique and fitting outfits for my other characters...so that's gonna be fun.

Oh boy yeah I remember the horror stories before the dlc came out D:, ahh I don't remember the skill and PQ exactly but I think it was Trunk's heat dome attack? That skill evaded me like a plague, I could just not get it for the life of me. I tried and tried to the point I googled it to see if maybe it was glitched? But nope, people were saying they got it on their first or second try which made me wanna shut off my system and give up on life ;-;. I just gave up at that point and just thought it's not worth it, but then I read about the dlc and an RNG increase...still couldn't get it lmao even with golden tree predictions but I did get it eventually. Seems to be a different ability for everyone that spawns grind horror stories.

Haha good luck on your outfit hunt man, I'll be spiritually rooting for you :'D.

Thanks man I appreciate the Like I'm pretty proud of that intro, My Xenoverse Character is actually my Channels mascot even though I've more or less dropped Xenoverse, I just really like the way he looks. A big plus with the ability to mod is that I was able to change the Freeza race Aura to green to be more like Green Lantern.

Sorta off topic but I've been doing some "The Binding of Undertale" Playthroughs on my channel and an artist called Soaring Sparrow did some character art for the game

Spoiler:

I asked her nicely if she'd draw my character in the the same style.

Adorable and Awesome

Oh and here's part 2 of my Xenoverse Cutscenes with added Kikuchi

Ohhh well I like both Binding of Isaac and Undertale so needless to say that is some pretty awesome art! Might give your playthrough a watch later on this week

Hehe ok let's try to keep on topic.
In response to hellspawn, same here hoping we get an announcement for Xenoverse 2 or another console dragon ball game soon. They showed off some Xenoverse gameplay at 2014's E3 right? (Correct me if i'm wrong) Hope to see something similar this year.

[Gyt Kaliba]

Haha good luck on your outfit hunt man, I'll be spiritually rooting for you :'D.

Many thanks! I'm gonna need it probably...

There's been a few I just got tired of spamming for now and decided to shelve and move on to another spot for the time being, but I'm already cringing on the one I'm on now...it's the Dragon Ball gathering mission with Broly. Not only is there a skill I need from it, I have yet to get any of the 8 different outfit pieces it can possibly provide either...and the Ultimate Finish basically relies on Broly's AI being smart enough to kill Videl, and then Goten and Trunks...

...This is gonna really, really suck, isn't it.

Update: Yes, yes it is...Goten and Trunks he had fairly dead, but they still managed to off him. Oof.

[EXBadguy]

I just re-bought Xenoverse last week, and to my suprise, I'm enjoying it again, though that's because I starting it all over from scratch. Grinding all over!

Anyway, did anyone her about this(regarding the game series)? I know this is from a different website and I apologize to the mods for that, but still, we can't deny this.

[Kuririn Fan]

This is by far the best Dragon Ball game because it was made for the greatest gaming system - PC.

Saying that though, Since I bought it last week I havent been able to get into a lobby.

I am a hardcore console player, but what do you guys think is reason for this PC surge in late years?.
Before going for Play Station, I was pissed that after Mortal Kombat 4, no game went on PC and still, most of games are console exclusives (like God Of War, Gundam titles).
But never before I would imagine Dragon Ball or Saint Seiya game on PC. Is it because of services like stream and digital distribution?
I wonder what sells more, if PC titles or console titles, because PC is still the main pirating domain.

Little off-topic, yeah.

Companies are seeing that it's easier to work on and they don't have to go through manufacturers to make their games which means they have more freedom and they keep all the profits to themselves.

For gamers, they have mods, a lot of options to pick from and free online unlike consoles.

Yeah, but PC porting is real pain in the ass and it recently killed Arkham Knight on PC. Which is a rad game otherwise.
I remember Star Wars Force Unleashed being broken as well. So I don't see the easy to work on point, as most of the games nowadays, including GTA series are ports.

But yeah, I agree on PC users win situation, so that's what baffled me, as piracy is still a going thing and porting the games is damn expensive.

AK was ported by a small studio which got little to no money and time to port it, I think they only got 2 months and WB even knew how bad it was.

Look at the witcher 3, that game looks and runs great on PC but unlike others PC was it's lead platform.

It's a lot smaller then what console fans say cause more and more developers are not only bringing their games to it, but talking about how much more $$$ they made on it compared to console versions

The current consoles are just weaker PC's so it's not that hard to port or even develop on compared to them cause they're basically the same thing.

Hmm, interesting points. I have to find some porting interview or articles on the net, so I will be more clever in that matter

After much going in and out of the character select menu to reboot the city, to try and get Elder Kai's blessing, and then crossing my fingers each and every time that it actually worked...I'm in the final stretch for trying to get all the skills. I'm currently only missing ten of them according to the list, from about six different Parallel Quests (I could have sworn I still needed to wish for some too, but the number doesn't add up if I do, sooo...).

My goal is nigh. And yet, so far.

Spoiler:

(For those curious, if any, this is what I've got left to get that I'm working on.)

1. Burst Kamehameha
2. Counter Burst
3. Warp Kamehameha
4. Final Blow
5. Super Galick Gun
6. Assault Rain
7. Split Finger Shot
8. God of Destruction's Wrath
9. Big Bang Kamehameha
10. Riot Javelin

[MCDaveG]

Is something bad with my PS4? The RNG on spawning the masters got more rudiculous...
Before, They were spawning like 1 in each of the map section, sometimes even 2 on one map section. Probably, the patches made it worse.
I really need the Android 18 as my last missing master, but she won't spawn anymore. In 3 months, she didn't spawn at all!
Also, there is like 1 master, or 2 masters for the whole Toki Toki City and sometimes even none. It's really crazy as hell.

Burst Kamehameha is a BITCH. I have done the quest for it over 30 times and still dont have it. Even going so far as to use that whole "scan them with a scouter and let them use the move in combat" trick that SUPPOSEDLY raises your chances of the move dropping.

The RNG Gods continue to be fickle in different ways for different people I guess - Burst Kamehameha and Counter Burst both dropped for me at the same time, when I went in with a 'Golden Fruit' description. ^_^;;;

Hadn't heard about that trick though, huh. I'm really disappointed there's not some kind of Z-Soul or some kind of outfit to equip to increase RNG or something. Like, an outfit that has really, REALLY bad stats but greatly increases your RNG or something, would be really useful in this endgame stuff. As far as theories go, I did hear about the 'Macho Man' one though, and actually tried that out. It actually seemed like it was working at first too, shockingly, but then it just stopped, so basically the game was trolling me again. Argh.

This is what I'm down to grinding for now, and they all just refuse to drop even with a Golden Fruit prediction, argh.

1. Assault Rain
2. Split Finger Shot
3. Big Bang Kamehameha
4. Riot Javelin
5. Warp Kamehameha
6. Super Galick Gun

Edit: I guess on the plus side, doing all of this is making me level up further without even noticing. Just hit 98, so uh...guess I might well have a Lv. 99 main character by the time I get all of these skills.

[KentalSSJ6]

BBKMHMH and Super Galick Gun kinda suck, at least for me. Both have long chargeups (especially Super Galick Gun, hot damn...) and while you can cancel the latter for a quicker shot, it's not all that worth the damage. If I remember correctly you cant even do a quick version of BBKMHMH. It always has to be charged a certain amount before you can actually fire it and the range is pretty pitiful.

[Gyt Kaliba]

I honestly don't even know if I'll use any of the moves I'm unlocking just yet, I'm basically just getting them for completion's sake, and somewhat for building my other characters the way I think they should be built. At this point, it's getting quite maddening though...

...Elder Kai wouldn't happen to drop the 'Golden Fruit' prediction more often for a female character, would he? That seems like something they would do almost.

Maybe? Wouldnt hurt to try. Make a premade party with girls too and see if that increases your chances too.

[Gyt Kaliba]

Hmm...I'm tempted, but I don't think I've leveled her up too much yet from what I can recall, so it might be a bit too tough for her at the moment. 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.
