CHB 60. Please be advised: The last Heart of Suppressed Gun Auction I saw went for 80 PDs, so if you can track one of those down, you might avoid paying a higher price! That is the reward for providing me convenience! ;D
Res: 50 PD
Timer: 48 hours from first bid with mandatory 24-hour resets
Buyout: Heart of Suppressed Gun (instant end of auction if offered)
Thanks for any interest!
Maxim found a 45% hit HS with the %s I needed and I made him a very generous offer, so my hunt is OVER. I Sphered it the rest of the way :3
Time to celebrate! Since my main RAcast is big and green, this works:
I did notice that lately, MOST of the boosts during events came from grinding that event's respective HBR. When asked, Soda did say the following (to hopefully add some context to what Matt said):
Regarding the weapon special tier changes:
Sadly, I tested this out on PSO GC; Soda and the team are correct. I hunted down several ??? common weapons on Ultimate Ruins. The first item I found I was able to tekk up to the max attribute (Geist), but the second item I found was a ??? Calibur that...
I appreciate you letting me know, but sadly I drew the line at 45h. Even with 45% hit, RAcast still misses way more often than I would like, so I had to draw the line there. Nice find!
I agree 100%. This is why I think HBR in its current form should be done away with.
However, if the devs insist on keeping it, THEN the changes I suggested should be considered.
I cannot stress enough: I maintain my stance that HBR has become too polarizing and should be changed.
@alex! I concede that you can get a decent boost with minimal effort on HBR.
If the developers insist on not removing HBR, I suggest the following:
1. Do away with the RNG of the three to five quests per month. Stick with three. That way, it doesn't take an unhealthy amount of time to...
HBR in its current state requires an unhealthy amount of playing to get max bonus. It probably needs to be looked at, anyway. I suffered a decline in health and physical fitness during the most recent Anniversary event, for example. (I'm already out of shape, but somehow it got even worse.)
I'm...
I think we're running the risk of making things too complicated if we do stuff like this. I don't think we should do both. (It won't solve the main issue in that the month-long HBR quests will continue to be the "only played" quests if they have a larger potential for boosts.)
A fair point. Perhaps the old method would still be used for Events since everyone plays those. (Events are usually what re-unify the community before everyone goes their own separate ways.)
Thank you, everyone, for the thoughtful responses so far! Great discussion <3
"Dear Diary, today I posted a thread and most people agreed with me. This has never happened before. It was... nice =')
<_<
Very high monster count quests are typically what get deemed "too OP" for HBR. There are too many to list. The short list I provided is a decent chunk of them. Most of these are LONG ENOUGH quests that they aren't more "kills per minute" than the best HBR quests, but they still get excluded from...
I'm not suggesting a new mechanic or any changes to game balance. I was informed by Matt on the #pso Discord that it's okay to post about this.
Anyway, here's how I feel about HBR:
I believe its original intent has been superseded. The intent of HBR was getting people to play "lesser played"...
