A Guide for newcomers/Beginners [Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet] 

I was gonna mention Leveling as well but the Video is already to long so im gonna say it here shortly, before you go into leveling i Reccomend you do the Story first and then after go leveling or as an emergency. You can level up very good on the Map White Frontier what is only availible in the DLC Dessonance of Nexus, Also is co-op as very good way of Farming Level especially Behemoth MT-02 that gives 7 Million EXP and with EXP gear on you can even have over 15 Million, brings you to Level 300 very fast.

Happy to see someone giving this game some love even after all this time. It doesn't get near the amount of love it deserves. I've played the previous SAO games but Fatal Bullet gave me the most enjoyment.

I hope this game gets more players again, I just started and could only imagine playing a full party with random people online Vs a boss

Just getting into the game years after release after getting heavily burnt out by Hollow series years ago. Glad to see your guides!

Thanks for the guide, had this game for years and never really got into it 👍🏼

Thanks for this! Started playing a last week but was kinda overwhelmed from all the...mechanics and paralysis due to over analysis 😅

just got the complete edition for £8 and thought i would check out some tips and tricks. thank you for the help :D this should be good

This video is very helpful, Thank you! I just recently got into this game and really enjoyed the anime so I'm enjoying thus far!

Really like this video! Glad to have found something more recent since I just picked up the game. Can’t wait to see what I can get into now

Damn didn't even know this game was still active!

This game is sick and i never played a JRPG except Scarlet Nexus, i wish more people would give Fatal Bullet a shot. I just started playing for the first time and i’m contemplating on coppin' the DLC’s. 😅 I like third person shooters with customization and their aren’t many games like that on the market, this is a breath of fresh air for me.

Important note to the customasation data. You don't start with all 8 unlocked unless I belive you have all the DLCs If you only have the base game. you only have 2 or 4 saves For the medal gauge at 50% you gain +40 to all stats. and at 100% you gain +80 to all stats. Acording to what I remember from reading up on the wonky stat that is defense in this game.

Just started this game and having fun, this guide helps a lot thanks

I've been playing this game since August when I got it on sale on the ps store. It's actually really fun, I've been playing exclusively offline though and I reached level 104 about 4 days ago. I've learnt Alot of stuff from this video and it's also just another reminder that I need to get the dlc because I can do way more with it.

Try to lvl up before you try something but don't overuse, lv140 for story, lvl200 for dlc1 and 2, over 200 for dlc3 since you need a r11 sniper, 300 for dlc4. For weapon: never use sword unless you are in lvl 300 with giga or blue rose swords (I forgot how many times I have to carry a friend who insist to use sword and his alfasys for damage, he also didn't focus on some build and use all attribute as they are the same so he thinks it is balance and it's better, yeap it was hard to teach him), sniper aren't good except for some opponents (MT, final story boss and some heavy mechs), only focus on auto weapon (except gatlings because it's overheat). You need all 4 dlcs and complete the game on normal and extreme for lvl 12 shop, the extra clothes and weapons (beginner boost) aren't sell on dlcs unless it's complete boost or complete edition

Does anyone else have the problem where the game keeps minimizing while you play my mouse cures pops on my screen and my character can't move and it minimizes its just this game to all my other games work fine

Found this today, started playing FB over again, never really got into it. But, I put all my stats into Strength and Agility - because well... run fast. LOL

The song of the game is a bit too loud, but you explain very well ! 👍

Anyone on Xbox?

I'm really hoping to get this game for Christmas this year. I played originally in 2020 on a PS4 and reached around level 175; right now, I am using a Switch and I cannot afford the game.

I remember buying this game on disc at a GameStop back in 2020 after seeing a let's play in 2018, I was so embarrassed as it was an anime game. I remember getting it and being careful that no one was around while playing it and then after a week or two I got pretty bored and traded the game in for something I can't remember at all. After 3 years, I was able to get the game and all DLC's in the sale you mentioned in the video for about $17 and played it for another month or so before once again getting bored and dropping it. I was scrolling through my Xbox library looking for a game I could play cause I was bored as hell, I found this game in my library and remembered playing, and it being pretty fun. So I downloaded it and have been playing recently and I've been enjoying more than I thought i would! I know this is probably the most non on topic comment like ever, I just find kt absolutely crazy that I've had this game in my life for FOUR YEARS!! Yet I still have not beaten it. 😅

I've heard this is the best sword art game from a friend, been considering getting this game for a week now, are there any major issues with the game?

I was really excited to play this game, but it can't launch on my PC i can't find how to fix it anywhere

Dude, I tried this game and I have no idea what's going on.

WAIT, since you're still reading comments, can you reply to this and tell me who the best characters are that I should use? (DLC included)

Good to go over the basics but it's surprising to hear that word "new player" with how old FB is now. Early 2018 release and its into the later half of 2022, by the same token I'm curious as to how many folks still *actively* play the likes of Lost Song (2015), Hollow Realization (2016) and Accel World vs SAO (2017) - I'm fairly sure Alicization Lycoris (2020) is on life-support though lol. I will throw in one thing I've always kept true to in many of my games particularly of this genre; if it's the first playthrough, like absolute 100% first time you need to learn the ropes yourself so to speak it'll make for a better experience and make future playthroughs alot more flexible as you can mix it up. When I see folks pinging for a shortcut to 300 it makes me sigh a bit you know? if its additional characters for say Bounty and whatever it's all good but generally I prefer the grind by your own two hands. Maybe I'm a masochist? lol

I dad just bought the game for me for $10 and there was 1 or 2 dlcs included with it

I forgot how to play online

Am I supposed to get a certain ending or max all Affection with the characters in the base game before doing NG+? And I'm guessing you replay the entire base game until you can do it on the Hardest difficulty before starting DLC 1?

i buy the game in the new sales.. but after in endgame i gan put again points if i waste in levelling for equip gear? ty

Of course its on sale a lot. It makes you go through dumb conversations before you actually get to do something instead of teaching you something useful about game. Thats why I am on youtube looking for beginner guide. Game designers failed miserably on this one.

okey but can you show the video how you do it if you show me how i really appreciate it

hello friend can you tell me how change weapon memory chips for characters idont know how i only did for kureha and sinon type z weapon

I just have one dlc.. ambush of the imposters

hey i just start playing this game again, and i have completed the game once but didn't get a true ending. the thing that i want to ask is should i beat the last boss on extreme mode or just normal mode?? I'm lvl 127 now. and i'm new subs btw.

Late to the party here but I got a big doubt... Is there a definitive way to knockdown enemies? Because I feel the itch of going full kleptomaniac, because of the materials.

Sorry to ask, but how do you enhance weapons to lvl 12 after getting the weapon Smith to lvl 12?

Do the cat sith excesories do anything

Just started the game and pistol, submachine gun and shotgun proficiency are all maxed. Is that normal?

How can we transform weapon attack to 30% and physical/optical/explosive to 80%?

Agility or intelligence

I think I know what inspired you to make this.

Can’t believe people are still playing saofb

Does anyone know how to equip weapons in fatal bullet because I've bought a couple weapons and I can't find a way

Hello everyone I'm on playstation add me if u feel like teaming up I forgot how to play and I'm max lv lol

If any of you play Xbox and are willing to help me raise bounty and teach me the ropes since I was carried to level 300 please add me and send me a message Yuki#2862
