Star Ocean The Divine Force How to Make ULTIMATE Armor Guide

[@MinyNeo]

Great guide, i'm eagerly waiting for an ultimate weapons guide now :) including best factors for the characters on their weapons would be cool.

[@Okcettefoiscbon]

Hey Primal, it's Katak on gfaqs. Glad my findings could help the community.

[@Primalliquid92]

its great having somebody to confirm findings with, thanks for double checking on the pointblank and +damage for me, was starting to go crazy when it seemed like they just infinitely stacked

[@RoderickArchieldJr]

Nina can also create Aegis Guards. Too bad she can't wear them. Try using Nina if you're struggling to make Aegis Guards with Malkya. I think it's a better route plus with her positivity trait, you can do this relatively cheap if you're unsuccessful the first go round.

[@numinous4789]

This. You absolutely saved me a ton of frustration, first with Malkya, then Albaird. Nina is the way to go. Thanks, man.

I dont get these armor issues.... what is the point of designing such cool looking armor if we can't even see it ????!!!

[@scruffy7783]

Aegis armor is shaped to fit the female characters but Primal thought it would work with Midas. Lol. Still like the video. Thanks Primal Liquid for all you’re help.

[@Primalliquid92]

it works on some male characters and midas can use light armor normally

[@scruffy7783]

@@Primalliquid92 oh how odd. Well thank you for letting me know. FYI I also enjoyed your videos about Disgaea 6. I will click the subscribe now. You have earned it.

[@ArchAngelAjora]

@@Primalliquid92 Midas is Heavy and Clothing, there is probably an ultimate clothing armor as well

[@b00g3rs21]

Tried midas per your recommendation, he's so broken. With factors, are these just randomized upon crafting? Is there any way to get specific factors? Or do I just keep making stuff until I get what I want?

[@Primalliquid92]

factors are randomized yea, hence why its easiest to just create 200-400 items with leticia in crafting (aka 20 of every material used) after which you have a nice supply

[@andysauruss]

How do you get your characters to get the character traits? I’m struggling to get the Aegis Guard with Malkya. Does she need a special talent?

[@baneblade_0]

I can confirm that without Maker's Pride, Malkya won't be able to craft Aegis. To get the skill I spammed smith iron with her. Spent the whole day save scumming until I saw you have that skill already then I tried to get Maker's Pride first. After got the skill, it will be high chance to get Aegis Guard

[@sawwchaoschan5891]

Yes u right , after I get maker pride easy get aegis , but now I can’t get Kavacha Plate

[@Alucard5715]

Couple questions for you or anyone else playing the game. I'm at the never ending battle at the castle. Gonna grind up character lvls to improve skills and all the crafting stuff since I've really only focused on the skill trees so far and I feel like I dont hit super hard in some boss fights. The bird fight took forever and I felt like my skills weren't doing much damage at all. So how early can you do this? Any chance of a best skills and chain combos video in the future?

[@Primalliquid92]

skills are sadly very lacking in this game, the majority of your power comes from equipment and factors, but i believe at the castle fight you should have all item creation skills unlocked meaning you can technically do all of my guides

[@Alucard5715]

@@Primalliquid92 ok, thanks for the reply. Its greatly appreciated. Wish the skills were more like they were in Star Ocean 4. Guess imma farm that fight for a few hrs to try and get like 30 lvls, that should give enough SP to let me lvl up skills a lot more and max out the creation stuff, then I need to finish welch's quests. I dont have all the creation unlocked yet. She is hella annoying in this game lol

[@ragnorak5095]

There is a fight in castle that is never ending....suppose to keep moving forward as enemies never stop spawning

[@doctorshiki20]

@Primalliquid does the passive skills that give +% effect work if you already have +60% on weapon or accessory effect? Would it be worth taking those passives to free up slots on armour if it does not?

[@drkstarchangel]

So what armor would be best for Nina since she can't wear either of them? What's the best cloth armor?

[@Slade-83]

Found it easier for philosopher stone with midas, but exalithium crystal with albaird

[@crazyeagle4968]

Hi Primalliquid. I'm trying to get factors with high percentage, like the ones you are showing in video, what material are you using to get it.

[@Primalliquid92]

i spam them all, aka buy 20 of everything including stones ect from santa and then just mass craft it all

[@dakotaseckman1457]

If you are a total cheap-o player, you can build an item drop farming set of accessories and go farm celebrity goblins in the gauntlet in the Origin Road. They drop philosopher's stones and you can get a free 5* engineering material on the stair well during your run too!

[@Primalliquid92]

the problem with that is celeb scumbags are RARE, likely seriously rare, you'd be better off doing 1 FOL run in the delve and then using that money to just buy 20 stones

[@nicholasschmidt6835]

My Milyka is broken, she just won't make a Aegis Guard, Midas made 5 of his best armor back to back but can't get her to make 1. Can you please make a video or give some tips on 'Spirit Of All Creation' trophy? That the only thing I am missing for platinum.

[@ChogronTheBear]

Hey Primal hope you see this, I am a huge old school Star Ocean fan namely second story and till the end of time. Do you think this game is worth a buy right now or wait for sale?

[@Primalliquid92]

100% worth a buy

[@meraclechamlotte9291]

I always have to go back to sell all my items while farming. My most hated routine when playing this game.

[@koro527]

Sup dude, I'm still getting through the game mashing square. You pro's come up with good chain combos yet for each character? might be a good vid idea for ya.

[@carlinbethke8498]

I use (on Raymond) Bell Ringer, Quick Ripper, Boulder Crush. all maxed on square. Almost never use anything else aside from the vatting and jet skill. My other two combos are; Triangle=Brazen Wave, Abyssal Gate, Cruel Buster and Circle=Fantasia, Outrage, Payback Time. I have Abyssal Gate maxed and am working on maxing Outrage since it pairs well with a knocked down character from Boulder Crush. Does obscene damage if the enemy is downed. Square attacks work well with ground foes, Triangle attacks work well with airborne enemies as abyssal gate teleports you to them. Edited for spelling and updated info. PS. I may swap out Cruel Buster or Payback Time in favor of a maxed out Requesting Backup depending on how it plays within the combo.

no its just rng

sadly they dont interact with each other

because some armors and weapons are character exlusive creations, for example each character can ONLY create there best weapons. like how only albaired can create philosphers stones ect

@@Primalliquid92 thank you very much sir

[@md_dorion]

@@Primalliquid92 It should be noted that Albaird can also make Kavacha Plate. Edit: Figured out the restrictions on Malkya. The key item Hammer of Creation is a requirement. Maker’s Pride is also a requirement. Nina’s best armor is indeed crafted with Runic Cloth and it is called Aidos’s Gown.

Hammer of Creation is required. Side Quest in front of the Integration Plant (destroy defense system).

@@Primalliquid92 you have a significantly higher chance of getting +% accessory factor if you engineer. I used Elena and was able to get it twice in 10 minutes. They were also both at +48%. I used integration mat.

[@IltisJoe]

So iam assuming, because these stats are rediculus, that you dont bother to maker armor for Nina because she isnt needed, right?

[@veghesther3204]

That and even on earth mode she still sucks if your defense is high enough and you have 100% Spell immunity then even the super bosses will do 0 damage for ALL their attacks at lv 255 making Nina completely useless and she doesn't even get a SINGLE ATTACK spell.

[@IltisJoe]

@@veghesther3204 Dont know if you declare an attack spell as in something like ice needles or something like that, but she actually has multiple attack skills to dmg enemies. But if you really mean spells like in an actuall spell, then i guess you are right. But then Letticia nor Raymond has spells either. But my guessing was right, thats she is useless and therefore didnt get any armor because its waste of resources.

[@Primalliquid92]

Nina is Aidos's gown (easiest to get as a drop from mudman neo in ultima thule) ill be honest, i overlooked her in the process of the video because at end game she is just a wasted party slot, her heals are pointless since were always at full health, we dont die so dont need a res and her buffs dont stack (and her range is tiny) its much better off to just replace her with a character capable of murdering things

[@veghesther3204]

Ice needles doesn't count as a spell so yes Nina has no spells to hit enemies with.

[@IltisJoe]

@@Primalliquid92 Thanks for the answer. Great work by the way. Always ingteresting in which speed you brake these games and with what dedication.
