This sounds like a hell of an update.

* Photon Charges will be modified so that when used from your action palette on two single-handed weapons, instead of recharging only 50% of the max PP for each weapon, it will completely refill both weapons' PP.

Nice looking update. Really looking forward to the Electronic Brain S2 mission and what the Boss drops (considering on S she drops 11*'s and had the highest Lvl of any Enemy in Game for a S rank run.)

[Kamiense]

Wow, 150. I feel bad for new people.

Otherwise, nice update. The Photon Charge for the two one-handed weapons is definitely justice.

Parum GBR = fail.

Only 4 missions and there all AOI ones. SEED Express must be impressive for me to be happy with Parum GBR. (Or the new S2s and MoI drops must be down right awesome)

Other than that, awesome update.

The new Parum GBR = Motherbrain Boost Road since you get to fight her twice lol... inb4grandcrossdrops.

I was expecting to read that the Photon Charge would restore 100% of the weapon you were using bot 100% on both? lol that's nice
