A fair point. Also I'm not doing Vjaya math here so I'm not breaking my rule. But let's say you rack up a 20k restock bill to replace all the Mates you used in the absence of Resta. (It could easily be over 50k if you start chipping into Star Atomizers, so 20k is fair.) You can replace 40k...

I think the reason it comes primarily from the anti-DF crowd is they feel "stepped on" in game, so the first offense has already occurred, in their eyes. Intentional or not, perception motivates action. Edit: Or maybe there's just way more of them.

It is definitely still a debate. And new perspectives are always being added to the fray. This is the first time I ever saw a compelling, "It is the FO's decision" argument, for example, in nine years of debating this. Stop with the manufactured fatigue. We're all here discussing this because...

Ya ;-; They were lazy for a time then got their act together when they discovered the infinite money machine.

Well, it shows how half-baked the idea was. Because it's only available to 1/3 of players (Hunters) and it's highly disruptive. So obviously Sega didn't do a lot of balance considerations with DF. Maybe that's why it was not legitimately obtainable until the very end of official PSOBB. (And...

You shouldn't assume a change won't happen on this. It was very close to happening a number of years ago, and I would contend that removing DMC or allowing for Divine Punishment to be used 24/7 are equally "game changers" in that regard. So it's not anywhere outside of the scope of possibility...

I suppose exploitative was a poor descriptor. I imagine the first person who figured it out probably had it proc unexpectedly and said, “Oh wow that was useful. I wonder if I could position my HP more effectively to make that happen more often?” It was wrong for me to assume that anything I...

I would put "intentionally proccing invincibility" a step above the more obvious game mechanics, so I disagree with JC on that one. It requires an... I hate to say it... exploitative mindset. Which people are not naturally inclined to do. I never would have thought to do it myself if I had not...

The main time would be trying to proc invincibility, but as soon as it's procced, then Resta is back on the table. So it's not a condition for the entire run, in most cases. Usually when an Epsilon, or multiple Epsilons, spawn. Also ep4 boss fight is a great time to proc invince, too, but...

The regime is toppling! Viva la Revolucion! xD

In most video games, keeping your life / HP meter full is a good thing. And it's also the case in MOST situations in PSO. So the sentiment should naturally favor what comes to gamers naturally, not some forced "reprogramming" to gain micro-optimizations. (Just to bolster the argument further.)

My reasoning is that FO is already serving others and taking on the less glamorous work to do so, so it should be their choice. That seems reasonable to me.

I really like this. The FO decides, and you go with it. They're already serving the party and taking a back seat to the big DPS hero trope, so it SHOULD be their choice. And it should have been from DAY ONE. I think it's time we downplay this narrative that the HU decides. The FO decides from...

I also wanted to echo the notion that if you have players on your Blacklist, you should review it at least a few times per year. I appreciate others bringing this up earlier. If you don't remember why someone is on your Blacklist, you should remove them. This community is too small to hold...

I'll try to add something new here: Playing on Anguish 2 is a really good sweet spot for this game in terms of how a new, actual difficulty setting would feel. One nice thing about A2 is that DF can't one-shot many targets, so DFing is no longer viable. The enemies hit hard. Debuffs are...

I decided to loosen the coin purse and finish Sphereing the set:

Hi everyone, I recently acquired a 65% hit Vise with the Samba Maracas skin. I'm not interested in having the Samba Maracas skin, so if anyone else has a 65h Vise with no skins applied (idc about the Attribute %s), then I would do a STRAIGHT TRADE for it. I could use a Neutralizer on it, but...

Oh wow. This thread has risen from the ancient crypt of PSO history. Thanks to all who responded with updated information :O V101 is in a good place now, but RR is still too rare for how necessary of an item it is. Spending 80% of your 80 to 200 journey running TTF is a bad experience, and I...

I went to bed super early and woke up in the middle of the night. I couldn't sleep so I ran two PODs. This dropped on the 2nd run. Yay! Tekked to 35h 20d :3 Back to bed! :D
