The 4th item on that menu is “Customize Weapon”, so you can potentially set their gear up too I guess. Unlike Partner Machines, a Support Partner’s appearance is completely customizable, it’s pretty much making a 2nd tiny character. I don’t know yet if that’s how you raise Support Partners or not. They were a bit like Mags, in that you raised them by feeding them items and what they’d evolve into depended on how you raised them. They appear to be reminiscent of Partner Machines from Phantasy Star Universe. aaaaagh A pet little girl you can raise, clearly inspired by the roguelike Elona. Support Partners: The Return of the Partner MachineĪ newly announced feature is a small girl you can keep in your room…. I’ll add the names more experienced people grant them later. I’m aware that the bosses there have their names in Katakana but I’m not confident in my localization skills. Didn’t help that they were texture-less as well. Bird Darkers was a possibility that was considered, but upon looking at their models they didn’t seem very darker-like to us. It is in fact one of the 3rd type of Darkers, which is significant as it means that all the BirdSoldiers and the infamous BirdBirdCrow are also Darkers. It’s pictured in the top-right there, above the actual miniboss. “BirdCentaur” might not be a miniboss, but it is still quite significant. I can’t tell if that name is mentioned on that image there. These enemies are all part of a new enemy category internally known as “Chimera”. The field also seems to be populated by angry flowers (the big ones being called “Blumegalla”), but not the PSO-like Lilys that were expected. It has a boss, the expected “MarineOarFish” which now has the official name of “ Bal Rodos / Val Rodos” ( Ricardo at Bumped / Mewn) and a miniboss which we thought was going to be “BirdCentaur” but it is in fact something I don’t think we’ve encountered in the data yet, named “Orgublan”. With a new field comes new enemies! Most of which were known about but certain details weren’t. The Coast field is also confirmed to be set on the planet Vopar. I can’t tell at that resolution whether it’s something technical or not just now. The fountain landmark seems interesting, not something I expected to see. As Braver is available on the character creation screen it seems safe to assume that there will be no requirements to unlock the class.Ĭoast The next field set to be added to the game and the first field that Episode 2 will add is the Coast field.
How the pair function in combat is a bit of an unknown just now. The feeling was strong that this would be the case but the way the data was it implied they were separate weapons. This does confirm that Katana and “saya” are part of the same weapon as well. It seems Bullet Bows will have some kind of a charged action, perhaps similar to how some Sword and Partisan Photon Arts do.
I guess Compount Bow might be pushing it in terms of name length, but Bullet Bow just sounds off to me. Katanas and Compound Bows were revealed, oh sorry, “Bullet Bows”. I’ve not yet confirmed this, however.īraver Braver was identified in the client fairly recently, with it being internally known as “swordarcher”.
Rumour has it that players will be receiving a free character slot when Dewmans are released.
Regarding eyes, I’m guessing that given there are two windows open with eyes that player can customize them individually. In PSO2 Dewmans can be pale white, brown, red or blue in various shades.
It also shows that Dewmans get a bit of a bigger choice of skin colour than they did before in PSP2:Infinity (which was white and REALLY white). The character creation screen there shows that they can customize their horns, though not sure if all male Dewmans have one horn and all female Dewmans have two or if that can be chosen.
Uhuhuhuh, they’re hornyĮyes with alternating colours as well it seems, otherwise they’re still albinos by default. So what is their race’s defining feature? Eye-patches? Ear-shape? That’s right, you guessed it! Horns. We’ve known these guys were coming since the closed beta tests and finally we see them.
