Pro tip: you can save a bunch of Fol on synthesis for your ultimate weapons & armor by synching all 4 of your desired factors onto a power ring first. THEN synthing that power ring into your desired base weapon/armor. So you only have to pay the cost once instead of 4x.
I actually found a pretty consistent method of farming integration units. I got extremely lucky for Elena's weapon and got it first try, but in the Gauntlet if you go through Origin Road, near the end with the spiral staircase there's always an item pickup on the ledge one floor down. I've been able to very consistently get Integration units from that specific pickup. It's been about a 7/10 chance of getting one in my playthrough. So anyone having trouble getting them, do try and farm that spot. It's honestly a quick and easy run through Origin Road anyways. Hope this helps out!!
Really liking all these videos on Divine Force. The only real suggestion I have for people wanting to get a leg up early is maxing out the determined princess passive early and keeping her in the party. Saves you money on armor for 1 character and gives a massive boost to EXP early on. I am currently with Midas at 64 and the second highest being 58 and just acquired Marielle. With her starting at 51, poor Malkya is stuck back at 48 💀
Just in case, Nina can craft a better weapon, Tintinabulum, it has 8284 INT. JJ can smith a better katana, Ame no Murakumo, it has 7782 ATK. The general consensus at the moment is that they also need to have the Inventor talent. Also, Albaird can craft Hatsoiihal, supposedly he need Inventor as well. I don't know if Inventor is really needed, but I have crafted/smithed all 3 of them, so I can confirm.
hm interesting, i heard rumors of a better weapon for nina but ive not seen them confirmed with screenshots ect anywhere, as for the crafting side of things i guess i can go back and try more, im guessing philo stones?
J.J. as well. Both of them are extremely rare/annoying to make, though. Edit: Inventor talent seems to be the general consensus as a requirement. I’ll try and confirm this.
I received the Hatsoihal for Alberd the first time I killed a mini boss in the last post game dungeon and I didn‘t even kill the ethereal queen once. My starting character was Laeticia thougj
@@drkstarchangel Craftable with Nina. I crafted it after she had Inventor and Seeker of Truth talents with Philosopher stone. Must also have Pliers of Revelation found in a chest in Scorpium ship.
@@drkstarchangel Aidos Gown craft with Nina and Runic Cloth. Runic cloth is endgame material sold from Santa in the second post game dungeon if I remember right. Might be a drop too from some enemy in that place but I'm not sure on that.
I've been testing some even though I haven't beat the game, but the highest DPS I've found so far is Laeticia with her quick multi-stab move and 3 30% chance to launch thunder on hit while stacking close range, wind weapon, wind resist -70% on hit, critical hit damage, and damage on max HP. Better yet, you can run wind resist down on a "support debuff" character, and Defense -30% chance for good measure to save some slots on her. Why Laeticia though? She has the Clever Fighter passive, which then adds her INT to ATK for physical criticals, and an Armor Factor +% passive to boot, saving you a factor slot for more damage. She also comes with the All In active, you effectively attack with ~50k attack stat on crit. Each stab is doing about 300-400k, and each of those has a 90% chance to do an additional ~150k x3, coming to about 8-10million on a single, fast animation, spammable move that only costs 1 AP, which is far higher than any other unit in terms of DPS I've encountered thus far. Just sharing ~10 hours of testing and many more hours theory crafting.
Hello, l have a question. Where did you get the factor to lower wind resistance on hit from? I have been trying left and right to get it from crafting but to no avail, and no one seems to know about it. You are the first one to even mention it. Thank you in advance.
@@xao_phan580 I noticed while doing IC, resist lowering effects only come from weapon crafts (as does lightning on hit), so you'll want to spam smithing because there's a higher chance for the outcome to be a weapon compared to other IC methods. I haven't seen anything over like 30% come natural on a weapon, so it's just RNG'ing it. Good luck.
With regards to the RNG of alchemy. From my experience (I've used over 100 philo stones and alch'd them all) Malkya should be used to upgrade from anything lower than meteorite. She seems to have the best chance of going from moonstone -> meteorite. You should then switch to Albaird to go from Meteorite -> Exalithium -> Philosopher's stone. Couple reasons: firstly, as far as i can tell Albaird struggles to go from Moonstone -> Meteorite for whatever reason. Malkya struggles to get anything higher than Meteorites. Finally retries are significantly cheaper on Albaird. Pre-meteorite retrying doesn't matter but once you're paying 48k per alch that -50% cost actually comes in handy. I don't know why it seems to work this way, could totally be just my personal experience and I've just gotten really unlucky with Malkya post meteorite, but I've literally never been able to go above exalithium with Malkya. Hope this helps someone. you definitely dont need a smithy hammer, I dont have one but ive made like 10 copies of Ray's sword.
i have the exact same results with malkya going for philo stones, but then every now and again i see 1 person dropping comments saying they got them that way. but i cant confirm it even after alot of testing, and yea its like i say in the video support items only increase the chance, they are not required to get any item
I didn't even know you could upgrade equipment ☠️. I've been using base store stuff and been fine and I'm damn near end game 😂 *WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING?!*
I done about 20 attempts at getting Albairds weapon from the drop and nothing showed up in inventory, a few hours later there was 6 of them (Hatsoiihal +2 and +3). No idea what happened
I actually got Elena's weapon first time twice in a row. I think I may have got an engineering IC tool perhaps. I wonder if someone has a list of those.
Thanks for your videos, loved the info on factors,hit ethereal queen for over 4 mill in 1 super hit,factors no where near maximised, also is atk+17 random or a specific item creation, i only got atk+13 from a pawn crafting rune metal, would like to get some +17s
@@Primalliquid92 Ill have to look again. Not sure if it actually spawns regularly, I only randomly got the drop during the storyline... ill let you know once I find it
Went through the spire again and either its a rare spawn or it is only during one of the story scenes (with the generators). Sorry to have gotten your hopes up :/ I assume anyone at that time can farm them by defeating it, save/load to respawn... but would require testing
I can confirm that that For Albaird, you can craft Hatsoiihal but it took me a while even with inventor perk learned. So you don't need to get the weapon as a drop.
I wanna get this game but don't know which platform (probably windows atm). I wish it dropped for the Switch as well. I am not the biggest Xbox/PS/PC games right now. Always good to get a peek of som of the uber weapons in a Jrpg.
Pawns are done via Crafting with ores. There is a bit of a distribution as to who can craft what. Leticia working on stacks of meteorites will get a lot of 4* and 5* pawns
Also, for what it's worth, I'm not sure 60% boosts to Accessories and Weapon factors is the right way to go. I've been doing napkin math and I think that just going 48% for weapon factors, armor factors, and acc gets you slightly ahead, I fully admit I could be wrong though. I'm trying to get the factors set up to verify
tests are for sure still ongoing with regards to optimum factor combinations every day were doing new tests to see whats best and whats worse but as were all on ps5 who are doing the tests its a long process due to having to stop to farm fol, synth and get the factors ect instead of just being able to mod them. and given the sheer amount of factors its likely still going be another week or 2 yet before we can pin point the best ones
Thanks i cleared ethereal queen 3 times with your guides, but after the last fight it sounded like a new boss was released anyone know anything about that?
is their a good way the upgrade item creation skills without using sp. I know your so post to just make random stuff but it takes forever for any level to happen.
10:30 On your constant point of RNG rules crafting: I got Elena's weapon, with the only 2 Integration Units I had, on the first try! xD Yet in other areas, like Marielle's... yeah, absolute crap luck!
The rng system in star Ocean divine force really sucks as with a level 7 in alchemy trying to turn gold into mithril for welches quest I wasted 20.000 fol plus about 20 pieces of gold trying to get 6 peices of mithril and ending up with not 1 peice because mithril is a rare metal and only available in the store in Baldar which is out of bounds for most of the game due to the war with the empire and that makes it a very hard or impossible quest to do at an early stage of the game

Agreed, I found 5 so far just picking up green map pickups in "Origin Road" of the Gauntlet and that was without farming for them.
This was actually pretty useful. I got Elena's weapon in my first visit to Origin Road thanks to this tip.
I've found them on multiple of the roads im the gauntlet, but Origin is most consistent.
I tried doing this but don’t see any green map pickup in that area for some reason
Wow thanks for these extra tips, I love a good but rare farming spot

Very helpful video, but I wish you would have segmented it for each character. Still, awesome work.
it been confirm that :)) Everyone can craft their own weapon , just need correct talent

yea ive been a mega SO fan since 4 lol
Great vid i was able to craft rays on my first try well before post game
Can you make a video about how to get items like the Lezard's Flash and Smithy Hammer?
Hey man , thanks for all the videos of this game , it’s been really helpful, I have a question, do you know how do get/forge the best weapon of Theo ?

just the joys of RNG saddly, yours was good, mine was shit haha
Damn my RNG was so bad for the armor tho lol. I'll keep testing see if I can massage produce this weapon easily.
i just crafted a sword for jj and its more power in atk and int and it is called ame nomurakumo+1
Thanks for all yours videos I don't know yet wicth weapon I will get first when I will playing the game but your videos will surely be very useful.

in the end what are the best factors? I can't see any pinned comment
Need a guide for farming good factors, spamming crafting with lautecia on velvets etc don't seem to give that many and others won't appear at all
i always just craft everything, aka buy 20 of everything, craft it all and then sell off every item with bad factors
I can confirm that that For Albaird, you can craft Hatsoiihal but it took me a while even with inventor perk learned. So you don't need to get the weapon as a drop.
ah ok, still probably easier to get as a drop though unless your trying to get it early
