I'm surprised no one posted about this... In any case. Here's info for those that did apply:

Well, more goodies from Parn, I guess. He posted the same info to the links I posted above from PSOW, but he also did so on gamefaqs. In this thread he answered a lot more questions that the posters asked and gives some interesting insites. I'll just quote the good stuff directly:

Note: The dragon fight looks easier than it actually is. The only reason we killed it that fast is because it was our second attempt on one mission run... we all died the first time against it earlier today, and respawned at the midpoint to give it another shot. The game seems to save the damage you've done to the dragon. The penalty was that we got -600 penalty applied to the points rewarded by the mission that gets applied to our job level. If we had not died, we would have had 1000 points... instead, we only got 100 and C rank. I'm OK with that kind of penalty.

We figured out sort of a pattern with the dragon... shooting its head a lot seems to keep it from thrashing around too much and flying around like a maniac. Anyways, enjoy."

Yea dude. What's the difference between the Photon color, and the color of the actual weapon (handle)?

The colors are for elements. If you notice in some earlier screens, the color of the lines and text on my shirt were green. In the later screens and in most of these videos, it is pink instead, for fire attribute. I believe green is neutral. I basically was taking less damage from the dragon in the fight than the other two (watch the numbers). Kyori was wielding a handgun with an ice upgrade, so she was doing the most damage to the dragon.

Basically, the old attribute system is gone."
