[PSO2:NGS] Good Augments VS. Bad Augments

[@leanderr112]

I love the new thumbnails these past three days

[@ClainSArchive]

Keroppi face best face

[@dustin3559]

Love your videos it’s such a huge help. I’m currently starting my braver journey after min/maxing out force and was just lost on melee capsules.

[@Draveance]

Alright This's Three Strike of Keroppi-Sensei Video With The Epic Pog Kero-Sensei Thumbnail, Now I'm Certain This Epic Pog Thumbnail Officially Will Be Used In Any Videos XDD That Aug Sheet Will Super Helpful for People Who Confuse Glad You Bring This Topic. I Was a Bo/Fi 2074 Bp Would Say I Like Variety Aug Build for Cinquem Full Potential Active, I Think It's Save a Lot N-Maseta Than Using All Same Popular Strong Aug, Will Be Expensive & I'm Doing Alright Even With Variety Aug Also Save More N- Maseta, It's Still Super Strong! Especially My Vinto Gauge Kick Damage!

[@TJMS]

I try to save up auguments for endgame but then I realize the next update is near, so there will be a new endgame build after. So I wait a bit.more to get more auguments, and by the time I get enough capsules the next update is not far away and the loop continues…

[@NeoKurow]

I know! I I level up my third armor to +50 today and using a mid-budget build. and to be honest I still have the Virtuosso Level 4 pending for mi Cirquem Rifle.

[@haruhanaharuko4462]

Deftmel. Altsec3. Addi deftmel. Gigamel3. Dread3. My "idk what I'm doing but doesnt matter bc I never leave the bench build"

[@korn6657]

Very catchy thumbnail, kero, keep it up!

[@YapYapTHEWATCHER]

i think floor potency is good in weapons that have higher base attack damage total like launcher because if you have weapon that you have seen dealing 500 damage in 1 attack the next attack might be 25% damage less what is huge in these numbers but weapons like twin machine guns and rifle you dont see them mostly do over 100 damage in 1 attack but they have high rate of fire also im talking about base attack damage not about skill damage

[@MilleMarteaux]

i've been thinking about this video again and how you looked at the potency floor tab and were confused by it as it was basically "just a bunch of numbers"... would it help to have actual damage calculations on that page as well for a proper visualization of potency floor boosts on overall damage like i have on the weapon spreadsheet?

[@miju4194]

Thx a lot! this guide really help me for making me stronger a bit xD

[@dustin3559]

I would really like to see your finished braver build n your next video! love the content and your music is on point.

[@yunarikagurasaka2634]

potency floor is multiply bonus to your current one so one def might is 0.75 x 1.02 and so on.

[@himenaaa3565]

i just use : Dread keeper III x1 Alts Secreta III x4 Form machine soul III x3 Deft Prec I x2 Spi prec I x1 Gigas prec III x 4 Pettas soul III x 1 Eradi soul II x 1 Dualable III x3 Prec III x 1 (not enough mats to combine and the patch time are near so i leave it as basic one) im forgot the others, its giving me a decent BP and cinda potential bonusess too, which is can be serve me for longer time at least into after this april updates i think

[@1k_Synth]

Hey Keroppi, I’ll subscribe if you answer this. Would having the same ‘Exploit (element)’ in a weapon and 3 armors deal significant damage to enemies weak to that element -compared to traditional “Potency %” augments? Would it break an enemies elemental weakness even quicker?

[@Co5moSKniGht]

i always keep this in mind "Not endgame yet" so i just put any augment that's necessary

[@angelresurra1220]

Souna here. Thanks keroppi and here is my augment build for anyone that cares! SB bouncer/fighter. my 2075bp is Sta Might, GIgas Might 3, Forms Soul 3, Dreadkeeper 3, Ael Domina, ael domina is ok but im having a hard time replacing it with, bcs i dont like minus stat alts secreta. and my build doesnt build floor potency otherwise. as is the bonus hp and pp are an even 50hp and 10pp. so it looks nice. In the end i went 2 ael domina and 2 alts secreta 3 for 2068bp with my relik fixa 1 atk. my units are affixed with Performa 3 and i definitely do not get 1 shot by lvl 44 giga. the difference of having more all alts secreta instead of ael domina is very minor and i can keep up with anyone min maxing their dps. especially if they make a mistake and die as they would have alot less hp and damage resistance built. with food buffs and other buffs with region mag and a possible techter buff i have about 708hp and 155pp and easily over 50% bonus potency. as additional information my food buff is Crisp. 1 veg, 1 fruit, 2 seafood, 6 meat.

[@yukikuran734]

Kero, your videos are very helpful for me. I suck at timing parries and I’m mostly a ranger or hunter. Most of my augment are weapon potency or DMG reduction. I’m wondering if you could do a spreadsheet of augment combination in slots of which augment works. Because I’ve did augment and two were in slot two but could get one or other

[@MilleMarteaux]

i was wondering why there were ten people browsing the augment sheet when i went to get its link for the armor sheet hello

[@ethangarber3440]

Great, now my Sovereign Ward will never sell.

[@rovaljax]

**Me looking nervously at my units with alt secreta IIs and a unit with Deft II.** I dont have alot of Alt secreta IIIs sadly. Also i have yet to find a good alternative. Edit: Also when did you get a greenscreen Kero. I sense your mug's gonna be plastered in the thumbnails in the future.

[@fponce12]

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@YuYuMFDOOM]

I keep my gears til its a point of I need to change for staying alive I built my floor potency up so it affects my TMGs and Katana but my katana already has hard hitting PA usage so I made my braver my sub and Gunner my main so the lack of Rng Potency I dont have is sorta reversed by that whatever your main class is gets 10% damage potency and it levels out nicely. I hit hard and I can tank 2 almost 3 giga hits before needing to panic health.

[@rezaaulia6863]

dk why i love the conclusion(thumbnail) section, maybe i love to watch blooper or BTS Stuff of content creator keep the great work, hehehe

[@MilleMarteaux]

ok... my last comment for now unless otherwise warranted.. i added another tab to the sheet that shows the actual concrete effect of what potency floor augments actually do for your damage. i'll be able to sleep now

[@delightXD]

A base unit with performa can achieve 13% pp cost reduction itself, but most of the times not worth it XD.

[@dissensia6024]

Me over here getting angry when trying to math, so I'm just gonna stack damage/damage reduction/HP and be a wall of death :3

[@NeoKurow]

I can't afford Ragras and I don't have time to farm it either so I went with Machini. I'm happy with my budget build is good enough.

[@shatteredsentient5321]

Pettas soul 3 but I think it is rank 2 uq exclusive

[@Zarod89]

Ah yes, mastery enjoyers rejoice

[@VisioVibes]

What about pain wand III

[@rofl2966]

I'm sad they only did a melee example, can someone make a tech example and a ranged example?

[@Xantexhunter]

Just use the Tech/Range versions of those capsules. So for example, Daityl Soul III would be a Nex Soul III for Tech

[@mikecavazos7098]

Keroppi you've helped me so much already! My clan is nothing but bunch of sweats. Always wanting highest power but always putting in their two cents on how to raise bp but, my BP is 3257 and still picking them up with res. Thank you so so much!

[@RaidenKaiser]

Dps won't mean anything if your camera decides to go rogue and you get one shot by a giga. Trust me it's not worth maxing out your dps as melee in kvaris.

[@emperor.of.west21]

I just sold grade 1 augment

[@shatteredsentient5321]

Omg that thumbnail. Make it a discord emoji ASAP please.

[@chrisedwards5995]

Lolol i use alno srry but its a place holder

[@GHOSTTEAM-po4dw]

I would like to have more ragols than perks so I can get more of the items in base PSO2 that I’m after so I don’t really care about this code that they give out

[@Hikizuru]

I dislike people who run dread keeper III in my ael purple runs. Their damage is mediocore and brings the clear time down quite significantly :(. I don't recommend them.

[@VicViper]

Raw skill always prevails compared to raw stats. During my Retem Purple runs, I was at 32% potency, and we cleared regularly anywhere with 3 to 5 minutes to spare at lvl 35. Same with Aelio Purples, I'm at 45% potency right now with regular clears beyond 2-3 minutes to spare with randos, and I still get aggro as a Wand/Talis Techter so I'm doing my part. No Alts Secretas on any of my armours or weapon either, and been mixing augments for the sake of Cinquem PP consumption (though didn't go above 15% I think). In fact, the only times we were barely managing to clear were when randos either weren't aiming the right body part and/or they were dying very often. I've had someone dying about 9 times because they were super squishy and either couldn't dodge or were having an unlucky day, that's a guaranteed 45 seconds *at least* of dealing zero DPS. Ael Purples are not hard enough to warrant breaking the 50% potency barrier. I'd argue you don't even need 40%. Also, to bring up something else about "bringing down clear time": in the Flurry of Flowers UQ, what'd bring down clear time would be luring the bosses to the bombs to get free breaks. Now count how many times that happens after the Chiacurio and Big Frogga (who spawn right next to one). Meta players wanna pretend that you're useless if you don't have the best stuff, but since the beginning of the UQ event, when it comes to exploiting the bombs, they almost always get destroyed within 5 seconds, as if people actually don't care about optimal play. There's a clear disconnect between "what people play with" and "how people play".

[@delightXD]

Bad augments would be like: Addi Deftra, Deft Precision, Alts Secreta III, Petta Soul III plus a Lab Note... I've seen something like that before

[@Rhapsody-.]

How are those bad augments? They are actually good aside from Lab Note which is a placeholder

[@darxis8822]

That’s literally one of the *best* combo for dps rangers/gunners

[@Somanybeats]

First lol

[@eMocHild551]

Second woop

[@dukeduke2450]

The game now design that players can not get all advantages. Players need to lose something to get the others. For example, players want high atk, they need to sacrifice these; reduce max Hp and increase damage gain multiplier. If players reduce some atk a bit, they can get some max Hp and damage reduction multipier. Now, it is up to each player style. I am not good at dodging and countering. So, I need more HP and reduce dmg multiplier to survive. Atk is 2nd priority. If u die, nothing u can do. If u can dodge or counter all attacks come from enemies and no one can touch u, max HP is no need. Because u never lose HP.
