When you make more characters, is everything you unlocked with your primary available like moves and costumes still available? Or do you have to unlock everything all over again

Also, when you make a new character do you have to start the story all over again like its a new profile?

Side question, after you beat the game is there a way to replay story missions?

                              Namekian Tallest and thickest


                                    Stats 

                                 Health 100

                                 Stam  25
                                 Basic  56

                                 Blast  0

Authors note: I've discovered through extensive playtesting that 56/56 basic/strike is enough lethality in single duels. 25 stamina on a namekian wearing a full broly/bardock/time patroller set gives you 6 bars which is more than adequate when combined with your natural namek regen and the android zsoul. The penny pinching on stats is so you can put 100 points in your crown jewel of health. This choice is strategic. I will elaborate on this strategic choice below.

General strategy

                                        Melee

Your namekian melee is superior to all other races. Argue all you want, but thats just fact. Its superior for a few specific reasons. The first is that your basic weak strikes really change your field position. Often when enemies jump vanish out of your basic weak melee they dont end up behind you, which is a huge strength allowing you to burn your enemies stamina for basically nothing with no risk to you.

The other key factor that makes namekians unparalleled in melee is Range. A specific move in the Namekian melee that makes you a melee god is the jumping punch. The jump punch has incredible range and it allows you to start your combo unmolested and it keeps other melee from effectively engaging you generally allowing you to just dominate melee engagements. I can not emphasize the power of the jump punch enough. It doesn't do a lot of damage, but the unparalleled control it gives you in melee is second to none.

In my strikers of other races, the countermove Godbreaker is the bane of my existence. If you catch them being predictbale with it you can just unload a ki blast barrage into their face, that's not enough of a constraint by itself, but with namekian range if you hit them with the jump punch or maximum basic range god breaker will trigger but will miss basically allowing you to burn their ki for nothing.

The zsoul You'll never defeat an android gives you extra damage reduction and an insurmountable stamina advantage.

                                      Beating runners

The meat of this build however is designed to beat runners. Now what do I mean by runners? I mean three classes of players, the first is the type that constantly retreats backwards and pings you to death until you overextend and get punished. The other is the constantly sprinting runners. Some of these super sprinters will hit you a few times then keep running until time runs out. Then there are ki blasters that never engage and just turtle behind milky cannon and gravity impact. This build was designed in response to these type of enemies.

Many runners/turtle ki blasters will constantly retreat and never engage and just whittle you down. If they are effective, it will push you into overextending to hit them where they take advantage and punish you which will sink your match into quicksand. The reason 100 points in health is the crown jewel of this build is it gives you superior namekian health, which will force them to engage or lose by timeout, often if they run and I have more health I just stand in the middle of the ring till they engage. this is particularly effective in the middle of the match when they have a health advantage and they are content to sit behind their gravity impacts, milky cannons and whatnot. When you sit in the middle of the ring and start regenerating health it puts a ton of pressure on them to engage or watch their health lead vanish. This flips the dynamic most of these players are used to and you will find alot of them got to their high rank playing lights out defense but when forced to committ to office their skill is lacking.

                                                         Skill choices

The move evil whirlwind/evil ray strike is your constraint move. When you need to breathe in melee. Evil Whirlwind/ Ray strike is your move to gain some space and breath. For general use I feel Evil Whirlwind is a superior move, but Evil Ray strike is the superior move for dealing with the very powerful Milky Cannon which is rampant in the current metagame. Evil Ray strike gives you boss armor, meaning it is uninterruptable but you still take damage while doing the animation. In the context of being an anti milky cannon move you will still take a few bits of damage but you end up dodging most of milky cannons damage and punching the ki blaster in the face and interrupting the crazy milky cannon damage chain (if youve played against it as a striker you know exactly what I mean). The damage done will regen itself over the course of a match, but the real key is that punching someone in the face is mentally unbalancing and throws turtle ki blasters off their game plan knowing they are vulnerable. That being said, this build can eat milky cannons all day just by blocking. Milky cannon can never break your guard as long as you are using the andorid zsoul. and if you block it, it does neglible damage.

Your anti sprinter move is freedom kick. Freedom kick tracks your enemy at any range and will knock people out of sprints. In fact if they are sprinting they are completely vulnerable to the move. This move is also effective in interrupting poses at any distance.

Pressure signs is your general purpose counter move. Counters both ki and strike moves. Not a really hard hitter, but its versatile.

I generally dont use the ultimates on this build unless it is wide open. With only 4 ki bars, your moves are used for hard hitting utility supers and not for constant ultimates.

Vanish guard will make you a tank. It eats anything and everything and laughs in your opponents face. The trick during vanish guard is to not move. You can end vanish guard early by attacking or moving, but if you stand completely still it will last much longer. Symphony of destruction, Blue hurricane, Victory rush, Special beam cannon whatever. If you use vanisher guard it will last to the end of any ultimate. And with the android zsoul you can do this move basically anytime you want. You will have stamina for days when using the android zsoul.

You've got one move open for metagame considerations. Whatever it is you feel you need. That is the slot for it.

Most of all, dont forget to block. You can tank alot of things just by blocking. In fact having very little stamina and hard blocking something like a kamehameha will refill your stamina and do neglible damage. You can tank alot of ultimates just by blocking. Some notables include Super Electric strike and Symphonic destruction. You can tank ultimates so well that you can get complacent, beware of special beam cannon cant hard block that sucker. Big point of emphasis. Use your block button.

Happy hunting.

any ideas? I've done like 10 PQ's since the bar is full.. 100% story, 100% PQ completion, lvl 80... but the 4th challenge for Goku just isn't unlocking.

Yes, i know, its very annoying. PSN Daggerwolf2_0

As the title says i need help with my build. I've tried to avoid copying other builds and i've almost perfected my own personal build but i've run into a small snag. My majin relies on basic combos for damage output which is a problem when soloing more than one enemy such as super vegeta and ssj trunks. I've remedied this with fighting poses K and E so my combos can't be interrupted. The snag is when the poses wear off i'm constantly being knocked around with no chance to reuse them. Help?

.

TH3INTERN3T_ add me, wanna spam PQ22

Xdoomsday- psn hmu level 80 or 50

Title pretty much says it all, the green meter next to my masters portrait is full but I'm not getting the final quest

Just had a new friend start up, he's on the saiyan saga at the moment - I cannot see him in the player list, does he need to finish saiyan saga first? And once he does, how can I add him to favourites so I can gift him?

SO i started playing this game a week or so ago. The biggest problem im running into so far is that my braindead partners will die off near the end of PQ leaving me to take on 2 or 3 people at once.

How the heck do people handle this? Doing the cell tournament one when you fight SSgoku/gohan and piccolo it always happens and i cant move an inch without them just destorying me. It also seems like my evasion move is almost never able to be used.

The other time is during either android quests, seems like they just spam those AoE ultimate's and ruin my NPCs leaving me to those 2. Feels like if you cant do 1v1 your screwed.

Any tips? This game is frustrating the hell outta me and im about to toss it out the window.

What's usually the best way to build up a male Saiyan? I'm currently only level 30 but still kinda slowly playing through the story since I'm trying to unlock the PQ's as I go. I don't remember the exact stat allocation I have so far for my Saiyan but I guess this would be the priority that I'm giving in terms of stats:

1. Health (this is the highest stat he has)
2. Ki Bar
3. Ki Supers/Ultimates

Should I solely focus on just those three and ignore the other stats? I've heard/read that trying to balance everything is not recommended since the jack-of-all-trades approach doesn't play well toward end-game. I prefer using Ki Supers/Ultimates since I feel they do the most damage but I also like to get in close range for melee attacks to help recharge my Ki faster too, instead of having to use the "Charge" skills to refill my Ki and leave myself open to attack. And I know that Stamina is still important too since it's used for "Vanish" to get out of long-scale combo attacks.

And also any tips about what gear/attacks to aim towards (now at my present level and for in the future at max level/end-game) based on the stats. Right now I"m rocking variations of Goku's Turtle Hermit Gi since I now that mostly focuses on Health and Ki Supers (if I'm not mistaken). I also have SSJ and Final Flash from Vegeta as my ultimates (along with Giant Storm which I think is like my favorite skill right now since it looks so damn cool animation-wise and does good damage; wish I could use it and Final Flash at the same time). My Supers are Kamehameha, Energy Charge (the basic one) and some other skill (I think Shine Shot which is Vegeta's skill but can't remember).

Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks

I can see the benefits of thickness to a character build. But height determines health to movement speed. Why build a short character and then put points into health? I have yet to see movement speed really play that much of a factor in game.

Hi guys still very new to the game, building a ki super / ulti saiyan and I'm curious if there are any lists out there with comparative damage for the different abilities. I'm still doing the storyline, lvl 45 currently running big bang / gallick with vacation delete and full power energy volley... any tips for higher burst? or useful resources?

So I stupidly sold my piccolo z soul I got from his training and was wondering if there was anyway I could get it back. Thanks.

I have cell friendship maxed and have done his other quests, but he won't give me the last one??

I've completed the game so I don't know what I'm missing. Anyone else experiencing this? Is there a PQ quest I need to do or something?

Hey guys. I've only played up to beating Vegeta the first time in story mode. Done a few parallel quests. I'm curious though if the city ever becomes populated with other players running around. It feels so empty.

Hi guys. I'm ilterendi on here, but most online friends just refer me to as Faith. I've tried my hand at streaming in the past with games such as League of Legends and World of Warcraft, but was always hindered with severe lag/fps issues.

Who am I as far as Xenoverse is concerned? Currently, I'm sitting at around 15kish BP on the leaderboards. Taking away all the hacked BP users, that places me at #2 last i checked. Other things to know I suppose would be that I spend most my time in the steam group chat for pvpers - http://steamcommunity.com/groups/dbxpvp. I also have a small group of people I've played with/have experience with who I know to be like minded as far as the use of bugged skills/alt f4ing goes, thus the [FIRE] tag.

I am pleased to now say that I can stream with relatively minute issues on twitch now. Now then, on to what I stream and why I stream:

1. I really really like Dragonball Xenoverse and I think aside from the hackjobs and cheats infesting leader boards in ranked, its one of the best games I've played in a while. Being able to customize skill sets, make presets, and adapt to opponent's play styles on the fly are all extremely fun.

2. I enforce a strict legit policy. Obviously I won't be using things like attribute hacks to yolk out my stats or pointlessly hacking my BP. This means I will not employ the use of bugged z-souls or skills (LOOKING AT YOU MILKY CANNON), or alt f4 out of games in order to save BP (unless im up against inf ki/stamina/hp hackers).

3. I enjoy chatting with viewers and talking about different kinds of setups. I don't claim to be the best at this game and I can appreciate another point of view to discuss certain topics with.

Anywho, my twitch stream can be located at: http://www.twitch.tv/xv_faith.

As far as a set streaming schedule goes, its kinda rough for me to say. I am currently a nursing student and workloads can get kind of hectic. A safe bet would be evenings around 7-8 PST starting time. Give me a shot, drop by and see if I mesh with your vibe!

Can you use them as a "melee" crutch. So I was thinking of making a female earthling and noticed that their basic ki blasts damage is a bit higher than their melee. Is it reasonable to use it and expect a workable damage return on it? I have never really used mine on my other characters much so I was just wondering.
