Its base attack is 488, which is 3 points higher than other 7-star weapons, while its natural limit is 647 + 50. The Obsidia weapon set’s potential is:

How to acquire an Obsidia weapon

There are currently 2 methods you can use to obtain an Obsidia weapon. Firstly, players can defeat Enhanced Enemies, as they may drop an Obsidia weapon. However, you should defeat these enemies in a higher combat section to acquire the weapon.

Alternatively, you can complete the Ordinal Tower quest to get an Obsidia weapon for free.

How does the Obsidia set compare to other 7-star weapons?

The Obsidia weapon set is quite similar to other 7-star weapons in terms of attack and damage output. It is thus up to you to decide which 7-star weapon you want to use. The other 7-star weapons you can use are the Rugged series and the Kaizaar set.

The Rugged set also provides your character with a potency increase. However, it decreases your photon point consumption when you consume a specific quantity of photon points.

While the Kaizaar set increases your potency and decreases your photon point consumption, it also has a photon blast gauge charge when attacking.

Players should thus use the 7-star weapon that will fulfil their character’s needs.

Can the Obsidia weapon set be upgraded?

Similarly to other weapons in PSO2: NGS, the Obsidia weapon set can be upgraded. Players can add enhancements, go through the limit break process, and add augments to improve their Obsidia weapon’s power and abilities.
