Decisions. I thought of getting Geist to have a really powerful Double Saber. I'm still deciding.

If you are a cast, like my HUcast Kesho, I think Jellen or Zelare would be most helpful to me. I hear that it exceeds a lv30 tech.

Id like to get a rifle with the hell (death special) I think i chose wrong too. heh It would I want to call my rifle Karsawa after the fabled Plasma Rifle From Armored Core. :-D

Edit* err... Update
QUOTE
update to ex attacks for s-ranks (originally posted by ahking)

A rank (50 photon drops)
arrest - 80% paralyze success rate
hell - 93% instant death success rate
demon's - leaves opponent with 1/4 HP
jellen - approx. lv 40?
zalure - approx. lv 40?

B rank (40 photon drops)
berserk - 2x attack power, drains 1/4 HP
spirit - 2x attack power, drains 1/4 TP
king's - steals 12% exp from opponent
chaos - 76% confuse success rate
gush - steal 17% HP from opponent
geist - steals 6% TP from opponent

C rank (30 photon drops)
burning - lv100? foie attack
blizzard - lv100? barta attack
tempest - lv100? zonde attack
HP recovery
TP recovery

for swords, partisan and daggers, the success rate is multiplied by 1/2
for slicers, shots and mechguns, the success rate is multiplied by 1/3


Also thanks to Supapuffy too.

My champion sword just got outfitted with zalure last night. Methinks I'll get my hands on an s-rank gun so I can zalure bosses like DF and OF at long distance.

Talk about tough decisions...

Right now I'm thinking:

Zalure on my (eventual) Partisan
King's on my Slicer
Blizzard on my Twin... if it actually freezes stuff. <-- Any ideas/thought/comments on this?

*shrug*

Either way, I'm pitifully low on PDs right now... so I have some time to think about it. ;p

my mate blade went for zalure, and at 50 PD's i've gotta say it was a rip off. Blade TWIN+250 in ULT forest, i do 300 per normal hit regularly, add the zalure and it makes the normal hit go 2 about 420...... not a great boost, and in ruins and stuff it's less, i much prefer my demo comet to it.....

i like the sound of that hell's one tho.... a hell type on S-rank mechs...now that'd be some good fun!

Ozza, let's compare that to normal Zalure real quick.

You say your damage went from 300 -> 420. A boost of 120 points, or about 40%.

Rinn's level 20 Zalure boosts her normal attack damage from 255 -> 285. That's only 30 points, or about 12%.

I haven't checked it explicitly, but if I remember correctly level 30 Zalure gives about a 20% - 25% increase in damage.

Yeah, 50 PDs is a lot. But a 40% boost to damage output is pretty nice, especially for solo play or for bots. Epyon, could you tell us a little about the effectiveness of Zalure on your Sword? Is the damage boost still about the same? How about the success rate? For that matter... Ozza, what's the success rate of Zalure on your Twin? Does it apply the effect with every successful specail attack?

I've been thinking about putting Blizzard on my Twin to incapacitate enemies. But unless it freezes with an exceptionally high success rate, I think Arrest would be a better option.

Mmmm... food for thought. ;p

It connects every time, and I've found it to be more effective than z20.

Well, I originally voted for the Hell special. I'll probably put this on my second S-Rank when I get it (a Rifle for my RAmarl). However, I'm thinking about getting the S-Rank Partisan first and putting Zalure on it for my HUcaseal. All in all, it looks like I've got quite a bit of PSO to play... considering I still have to finish CMode twice (with two different characters of course beigebigrazz.gif) and get up to 50 photon drops for the first special.

Ok i'll admit the Zalure is good, but even so, if i use zalure and Blade's Twin (the S-rank isn't mine, i have to chars on C7 atm), then attack woth it it is still quite alot weaker than my DEMOLITION COMET, so it's only purpose for me would be to use the tiwn, then change weapon and attack, and i only ever like carrying one weapon at a time (i have a tendency of either FSOD-ing, or my GC's motor knackering in), so i'm more inclined to go for say a Photon Booster for my Flame visit or lots of small things for various items than spending 50 PD's to make a weak weapon by a bit better than it used to be.

I gave my Rifle Demon's at first, tested it at Ult Seabed, and was uber pissed at the results. It missed like 80% of time, I shit you not! To a squid!

Realizing the horrid mistake I made, I went back to Gallons, and saw that I could replace the special. :D (with the pdrop fee of course, not a free replacement) So I gave my rifle Zalure, and it's pretty dang potent, I'm doing a spiffy 700 hard damage with my Rifle now, and it's not even fully grinded.

Moral of the story:

Don't get Demons. >_>

Methinks I'll get an s-rank twin, call it "serpent twin" and put either spirit or berserk on it.
