    Which items from blue/orange boxes are worth something?

    Can we come up with a list of items from blue/orange boxes (weapons, armor, shields, units) which I should not sell in the shop, because they might be worth something for trading? I'm thinking of the barriers needed for combinations with Amplifiers (to create Merges), weapons that are used even...

    Forum: NoScript XSS warning

    We have a new font, right? Looks nice. Or is it a fallback font (as the log says it couldn’t download a certain font). Anyway, not sure if related, but the Firefox add-on NoScript now gives a [NoScript XSS] warning when visiting the forum. According to the log: Original URL...

    Pioneer Christmas: Can't give the last present

    Quest: Pioneer Christmas (Episode 2, One Person, Normal difficulty) I gave the lady 8 of 9 presents. When trying to give her the last present (Green, if it matters), I get stuck: The lady doesn't say anything. I can still hear the music, and I can see server banners, but I can't move/chat. Have...

    Recommendation for handheld with PSO?

    I think I want to give one of the PSO games for handhelds a try, but I don’t know which one. My last handheld was the Game Boy, so I would have to buy the game as well as the handheld. Which PSO game + handheld can you recommend? Criteria: I’d like the game to be similar (close in spirit...

    MAXIMUM ATTACK 1 Ver2: getting Heart with less than 10,000 points

    Quest: MAXIMUM ATTACK 1 Ver2 (Multiplayer mode → VR) According to some old guides/threads (thread on zetaboards.com, thread on pso-world.com, guide on shadowwarriaz.com), you have to accumulate 10,000 points (= 10,000 kills) to get the "Heart of <your class>" (AFAIK it's not an actual item but...

    Get back the ALLCAPS of rare item names?

    On 2015-09-01, the PSO-typical upper case rare names were changed to title case, e.g., "RED HANDGUN" became "Red Handgun". I would like to get back the old/original case. It gives +10 to nostalgia, it is charming, and it makes it easier to spot rare items (especially when organizing your bank...

    Mag feeding charts

    Are there mag feeding charts available? PSO-World has some for Episode 1 & 2, but they don't seem to apply to PSOBB/Ephinea. Example: According to Version 1 & 2 Feeding Charts for Basic Mags, feeding a Dimate to a Vritra should give 0 Mind, but on Ephinea it seems to subtract a little amount...

    Sorting (of techniques) in the bank

    Identical technique items (same technique, same level) are sometimes not sorted next to each other: Is this a bug or intentional/SEGA-server-like? I think it would make sense to sort them by level (first all level 1 techniques, then all level 2 techniques etc.) and then by technique name...

    PSOBB mangas

    In the Phantasy Star Wikia I read that there is a PSOBB manga: On PSO-World I found this list/gallery: http://www.pso-world.com/gallery/showga ... hp?cat=689 Can someone confirm that these are mangas that were hosted on the official website(s)? And were the English ones hosted on the US/EU...

    Ship Select: Tab key does nothing

    When in the "Ship Select" window, the infobox in the bottom right corner says: But pressing the Tab key does nothing. (What would it have shown on the original servers?)

    Rare drops exclusive to one Section ID?

    With Ephinea’s drop charts, what are the rare drops exclusive to one Section ID? I found PSO-World’s "Rare Items Specific To 1 Section ID", but I wonder if this list is correct and complete (aren’t there any unique drops in Episode 4)? ---- (I’ll update this list when answers list/confirm...

    History of official PSOBB servers

    I want to get a better picture of the history of PSOBB, and in this thread I'd like to collect anything we (still) know about the official servers. According to the PSO Wikipedia article, PSOBB was released 2004-07-15 in Japan, and 2005-06-23 in North America and Europe. Did players from NA...

    Reach for the Dream: Are these 3 sentences correct like that?

    Quest: Reach for the Dream (Episode 2, "VR" category, Normal/multiplayer game) I failed room 8 multiple times, without knowing why. It might be that I did a stupid mistake all these times, but given that there's a bug with another room, maybe here's a bug involved, too? This time it asked me...

    Reach for the Dream: Dark Gunner

    Quest: Reach for the Dream (Episode 2, "VR" category, Normal/multiplayer game) In room 7, where you have to type without using the letters in "sonic", there's a bug with "Dark Gunner". The correct answer should be "Dark Guer", but this gets not accepted. Instead, you have to type "dak guer"...

    Map traps: should they really hurt monsters?

    (Not sure if bug) I noticed that traps placed on the maps (i.e., enemy traps) do hurt monsters, too, when I trigger them. Example: I run into a confusion trap. It confuses me as well as all the enemies that are close by. Was this really the case on the original servers, too? I'm not sure, but...
