125 is the max with the bonus from Guru

I know that bit, but is it actually worthwhile to dump a whole 125 points in any area, or does it kind of stop being super effective to pump more points into something after a certain point?

My only problem with this guy is he is clearly bias towards wanting a more traditional fighting game akin to Budokai. I personally don't want a return to the 2D fighters but just like him that is opinion. What can't be argued is that Xenoverse 2 fighting engine is roughly a 50% improvement on the first which is pretty good. It definitely had problems but it's no doubt improved, which this guy doesn't seem to think so.

Feel free to check out my full review if you're interested. Huge DBZ fan and a long time player of the games since roughly the PS1 era. We actually hit on the same areas in a few sections such as the dodgy impact animations.

Yeah, but only if you check my review of the game.

[EXBadguy]

*smh* Honestly, as much as I enjoy some of TheSaiyajin2's combo videos, he really needs to drop it and move on to other fighting games, cuz he sounds like one of those desperate Budokai/FGC fanboys who'd look down on folks who enjoy simulators. This is one of the reasons why I play 2-D fighters casually, cuz I don't wanna end up like those FGC fools who have a superiority complex.

And no, I'm not ignoring the Tenkaichi fanboys, they are just as bad.

I think you can put 125 into one skill and make the rest even for example, but it all depends on your play style i guess.

[Gyt Kaliba]

Hmm...my new build is working well enough for me at any rate, I'll probably stick with it until we get the level boosts to 99 (that I assume will happen eventually, anyway), and then I might re-distribute again to get more points into certain areas. I know my main areas of focus (at least for my male Saiyan) are health, basic attacks, and ki supers, though I also need a decent amount of ki to make that all work too (about six bars seems to help me out the most, I think).

I'll have to tinker with that differently for different races and maybe even the genders though. If I remember right, the Namekian transformation is tied to stamina, right? That might be the only race where I actually would want a ton more stamina.

[nato25]

Once I've finished Z-ranking the game I'm going to build a really bulky Namek. What would be the ideal build for that? Max height, max weight then max HP obviously. Then keep stamina low so you can easily keep it at max via a health regen z soul? Is Namek the best race if you just want to build the ultimate tank?

I have a Namekian character and they were tanks before the update happened. Giant Namekian was broken and it was great. So now I'd say slap Potential Unlocked on your Namekian and build him even. Maybe throw extra points into his physical attacks and that's it.

Heh, he just sounds like someone who isn't satisfied by the direction these games took and would rather go back. That said you can tell he doesn't have a clue of what he's talking about when he says XV2 only has o
9 strings and that most characters are clones.

[Grimlock]

I don't think I'll be able to get 50,000 points, but I want Tights' hat so much!

[nato25]

The officiak site now says damage not points. Shouldn't damage be fairly easy to rack up?

One health bar is at least a 1000 right

Yeah, he must have the game taken for Tenkaichi or something.

I think so. Regardless, you'll be able to get Tight's hat easily if you just keep going at it...even if the servers start screwing up again.

[Gyt Kaliba]

Wait, Tights' hat is in the game? Where do you get that at?

Also, just noticed that while my PQ Quest Completion is at 100% (still having to beat more of them to get the other skills and items, but I've at least 'beaten' them all once), my Time Patrol Quest Completion is only at 91%. That's the story mode, isn't it? I've...already done everything there. Unless the last 7% is just from getting the other ending to that final story bit, where you beat Mira without Goku's Dragon Fist?

It's not one of the items you can currently only get in Raids, is it? Speaking of which, have they said if any of those items (like Janemba's sword) will eventually be made available to offline players via the TP shop or something?

[Grimlock]

I prefer to think that the missing percentage is about the outcomes from the secret "arc", since those two options didn't lead us to anywhere, maybe it will come via DLC and hopefully a free one.

[nato25]

Isnt the remaining percent confirmed to be the paths from each race? So for example if you werent Frieza race you dont get the full extent of his training and thats like 3% of the story.

Well that makes sense but if thats true that's gonna eat away at my OCD

[Gyt Kaliba]

Didn't even think of that, I guess that'd make sense. No wonder people want a patch so that you don't have to replay everything in the story again when starting up another character.

Which, how far exactly does that extend? You only have to play the story missions again, right, not re-do every PQ and re-unlock all skills or whatever, right? Cuz assuming you can skip cutscenes, that would be at least a slight headache, but not be too bad, just doing the story again and the specific race areas again.
