I doubt poor Goku even knows that's an option.

So I was thinking of taking some points out of health and putting them into attack. How many points should I keep in health so I have a decent health bar?

None. Basic attack + your super of choice + stamina and ki

I think i'd like to have some points in Health since the Great Apes in the new PQ do some pretty good damage. I Don't want to die in like two hits. So while having points in Health, how high should I go with it. Is like 20 or 30 points good? I don't really know how to tell how high it is until I start getting my ass kicked. I can't even tell the difference between my 100 health guy and my 60 health one other than one doesn't die as easily.

Plus putting points in Stamina seems useless to me. I find leaving it at 0 works fine.

If it's not for Pv P, I skip out on boosting health for other things.

On another note, Elder Kai is now the best mentor in the game. Just today I earned 6 new skills from using his Luck Manipulation Mechanic.

Stamina is the most important stat, all your evasive actions are tied to it and you can easily be killed by running out.

The Great Apes are pretty easy to avoid, they telegraph all their attacks.

More health means you can take more damage but more stamina means not taking damage to begin with.

And I believe that Stamina is useless. I only need 4 bars max to dodge attacks then beat the crap out of every opponent except for those with Super Armor. SA guys I just blast with an Ultimate then destroy them. I have no need for Stamina, it is useless to me. If others find it useful, good for them.

I guess Great Apes are pretty easy to avoid. I just tend to screw up every now and then and would prefer to not get killed because of it.

I'd also rather be able to tank damage. Like when I don't dodge an Ultimate in time I can at least survive it. Another downside to having high stamina is if I don't get a chance to charge my Ki and end up dropping out of Super Saiyan. With higher Ki it'd take longer reactivate Auto-Guard.

This only relates to my Saiyan, my human has a high Stamina bar because he's primarily a melee fighter while my Saiyan is a ranged one.

This is about Ape farming? What character are you using and is it your only one?

Right now, none of the characters I have invest in health except for Namekians and Male Majins because for those 2, Health is the only worthwhile stat they have.

My Male Human is Strike Super focused(100 points) and has 50 in Ki and Stamina with 40 so far in Basic Attack. I use him to kill the new apes fast.

Now i'm just arguing against having high Stamina.

I guess i'll just leave like 30 in health and hope it's enough. Problem is if it's not, I gotta regather the Dragon Balls.

And i'm using the Apes to level grind, I don't really care weather or not I get the items.

Everyone is using the apes to grind, Togama's scouter can be bought, and Gohan's Tracksuit doesn't have any stats so it's purely a Cosmetic Award.

Personally I have high stamina on my female saiyan spammer so she doesn't get knocked out of her Ki Ultimate Blasts.

I personally don't like the new items. If you ask me, this DLC feels pretty crappy compared to the other two. Plus Elder Kai really pissed me off. I hate when people use text talk outside of texting - I hate it there too but it's easier to tolerate - so hearing him go "O-M-G" really made me hate him.

If you have high stamina you can no sell every ultimate in the game with an escape move, even if it has already hit.

But yes, it does have that kind of drawback for Saiyans. They're only good for spam though so if you're using one max supers is pretty much a requirement.

[up](x12)

Okay, first:

  • Oolong, Puar, Hercule, and Korin the talking cat are with the Z-Warriors and Yamcha is... No. Seriously. This joke is funny when it's not actually serious. Yamcha doesn't even get to be part of the team photo anymore?
  • Notice how Goku and Frieza are the ones who power up and attack first. smile
  • Did... did Bulma just contribute by firing a laser gun at the enemy?

Second, I really wish we had a Supersonic Warriors 3.

Third, god, how many of those 'custom' Z-game intros have they made thus far? We must have seen every single Saiyan character fight Broly/Majin Buu/Cell at this point.

The Resurrection 'F' Pack is my favorite. Best DLC skills, new Great Ape farming, and Elder Kai RNG manipulation put it at the top for me.

I mean, there's no story.

Granted, the story for the other two DLC was kinda phoned in, but.

No story is unfortunate, but not big enough for me to downvote my favorite DLC pack.

It's a bit concerning to me that the two best perks of a pack of paid DLC are bypassing things that shouldn't have been in the game in the first place (Grinding and RNG).

Stamina is only useless if you only play against the AI, against which you generally won't need to escape from very often.

In PVP... well, you're not gonna last long without a decently big bar of stamina so you can get out of every attack.

In my case, I actually did make a Majin with 100 points on Health. For shits and giggles. Despite the amount of points I put on it and the Majin being the HP race (the male ones anyway), he's not that tough.

I don't know if he was there or not, but it's been established that Yamcha's Memetic Loser / Designated Monkey status is as much a thing in Japan as it is in America isn't it?

Yamcha's death pose is actually a tag in Gelbooru and Danbooru, IIRC. Loads and loads of art of characters dying in the same way.

So yeah, I'd say it's entirely likely that he's got the same reputation on both west and east.
