January Update

Quoted for posterity.

 

Ubers with hit were variable? Even if they weren't platbadges caused enough of a concern they nerfed the rates to avoid further fallout.

Considering how long it's gonna take to farm one now - max stat RRs are expensive enough to be a big deal from any source. I.e. hit SJS tier.

To say otherwise is a bit misguided or you're just wanting to be argumentative.

:/

 

And that's how a max stat RR should be. It's the best Shield after all.

My point is, that finding 50pds for heart rock, and a few PCs to BPD for IG to make this isn't difficult. Anyone can easily do that before the level req of 123 if they want it. While hunting RR would be alot more difficult to hunt so; yes. It is an alternative for anyone who hasn't got RR and wants to have ata for RM on FOmarl (or any who use RM). It's a great Shield.

Ironic.

 

Check out the sass master over here. I was just stating a fact, not my opinion on the new drop rate.

 

Well, we have witch hunting here. Eiji (before "broomop stole the source code") and Fu Sheng were witch hunted when I was playing on them.


I remember when @Matt used to criticize the SCHTserv administration and hated when they checked his gear, but i guess thats okay here.

All over someone asking to check my gear

 

Shots fired.

 

This is such a wonderful PSO community.

Event ubers from that one event had GUARANTEED HIT.

In the actual game, ubers have FIVE PERCENT chance of having hit. And then AFTER landing the 5% roll, you have to land a good "variable" roll as well.

Nope, see above. There's a difference.

 

That was from the Easter Event and its tier gambling in the Egg Shop. The top tier of 25 eggs has (I believe) a 6% chance of winning an item. And yes, the item would get a variable hit %. So you're correct.

 

The game should never stop evolving. Most people here don't have experience that compares to most of the people making these kinds of decision, let alone a proper sense of balance. I don't agree with the rate being anymore than 1/128 but i'd rather see the best shield in the game actually have a rare drop that represents the title of "best shield in the game". Things should never be left alone simply because they weren't done when things started.

 

Which is a huge difference from potentially dropping a variable red ring in an event, because a natural red ring from drops has a 100% chance of rolling variable stats, NOT 5% like a naturally dropped uber.

I'm fine with it as long as they don't start nerfing things because new people stopped joining and "the economy becomes stagnant"

(The solution to THAT problem is to better market the server to get new people to join, NOT to start messing with the charts again; but hopefully that problem never arises, since we're the best PSO server lol)

 

Man-children. You should all be ashamed, jesus.

 

New people are not going to stop joining dude, ephinea is the best. Besides, the charts will never be changed, I repeat never purely changed to ''attract players''. Any changes are thought about and deeply discussed for the better of the server long-term. Does everyone really think the staff just do everything on a whim? Jeez, give them some credit.

 

Well, with all this mess going on this thread will likely see a lock soon.

 

New people are always joining, and new people will get accustomed to having to hunt RR's at a higher rate just like everyone gets used to a new server's drop charts/items in PSO (SCHT/Ultima/Ephinea) whenever they join.

If you show me where I brought it up before on the forum I'd be happy to delete my post.

 

@Kyu777 's fav game.

 

PSO is an old game. New people might stop joining because people in general might not be interested in an old game anymore (few years from now).

If the charts got nerfed at that point because "everyone already has everything and no one is trading, the drop charts must be too easy" that would be pretty dumb.

I hope I made my (dumb) point clear now. lmao

 

What's the need to bring up that topic? Just making more mess Sky.

I think when the game inevitably gets to the point it's 'so old no one joins, and everyone has everything' is the same point we can all bow down and say RIP PSO.
