I got my Black Heart!!!

Human Male, 3* luck. HIVE rank C. I got the CX spawn as posted in the Black Heart guide on these forums. There were two spawns. I got it to drop off the fourth Darbelan. Here's some pics:

You're very welcome http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

[hamb0ne10]

now i have a question what does the black heart actually do for u besides look awesome?

[Skuda]

it looks awesome, boosts stamina and looks awesome.

[_Deliverance_]

Don't forget, that other ability.
Looking awesome. Did we mention that it looks awesome?

[DonMakaveli]

As far as i know Black Heart is also a 12* Saber, so i'm guessing with probably gives some boost to it.

[omegapirate2k]

Umm... so is this available on the 360 yet? It seems like it should be available now, since we HAVE that mission.

[Golto]

So if it increases STA why does it have END in the pic? Is it a programming bug or does the END stat actually exist? I've read that increasing END increases pp recovery.

[9lotus]

congratulations, welcome to the club http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[Neith]

Awesome, it drops in C- time to get the hunt geared up http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

[hamb0ne10]

end. is endurance aka stamina but i havent heard what it actually does for your character, if someone could shed some light on this i would appreciate it.

[Dragon_Knight]

It helps ward off status effects liek poision and such.

[TeyRon]

care to take screenshots of what each start area looks like?

[Chris28]

so missions on guardian colony drop items from all the planets? i noticed it's a tenora product.

[-Asheth-]

Thats pretty interesting well my guess is that soon enough we will see alot of ppl spamming that mission. Plus the fact that it dropped on C-rank is even more incentive. I know were I will be tonight

[-Asheth-]

Oh I know that 5 star dagger boards from Neudaiz drop on B Rank

Darbelans also appear in a mission on Moatoob...but yeah, Guardian Colony missions are just kinda a grab bag when it comes to drops.

[Syntheticka]

Congratulations on getting it! =D

[Akaimizu]

Very nice. I can see Guardian's Colony becoming more popular as well. Still, for right now, I guess I'll spam a few S runs in Parum a bit before hopping onto Moatoob. I need to start being very cognizant of the materials I see, with each location. Not that I should take from this thread much.

Congrats on the find. I think the main thing I want is the Evil Twins. "They are to die for." And for about a million monsters, that would be the literal truth.

Anybody remember what kind of good material typically drops from the Train in Parum?

I'm not sure, the few days I've played have been days with no luck for my buddies so we didn't get anything good.

But whenever you're up for it, just send me a simple mail. I really like that train.. cause it reminds me of the old school "beat 'em up" 2D games that we all know and love XD.

And...the second cart has that super cool ORANGE strip on the floor! XD (X's 2 + Wai = Hella)

So.. yeah.. I'll run the train with you.

[Akaimizu]

Heh heh.

Well, if I see a bunch of Punks with mohawks with "wannabe street" music playing from boomboxes, on that train; I'm done for the day.

It'll force me to call it:

"Burning Phantasy Fight of Rage II Gaiden"

Though, by the rule that we must change the names in America, for no other reason than to confuse, the American name would be:

"Burning Phantasy Fight of Anger II Gaiden"

I don't think I'll stop laughing.

Laughing? There's nothing wrong with the 2D beat em ups! They need to bring em back!! >.<

The train sets the mood for it.. I saw those rouges and I ran up to em for some unknown reason and they just took their swords and went to work at me. I had 83/1095 health left!

>.> I guess I had temporarily lost my mind.

Anyways.. back on topic. I already looked for the black heart. *Thumbs down* I quit http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

I want the Electro heart anyways.. or something else cool...maybe the Whitill Wing.. but who WON'T have that.

[Almalexia]

Does it change your apparence? I mean I don't see anything, except a description.

[Zato-2TWO]

Extra slot...... =O

[Neith]

There's a black aura coming off the character, that's Black Heart.

[Akaimizu]

Hmm. Well that settles it. It looks like that's a clear indication Safety Heart will appear soon afterwards.

[TJ5]

Congrats. One player on the 360 has it in thier shop. for an overpriced 2 mil... lol..

Looks cool.

[ElfKitty]

Congrats!!! ^_^

[Para]

Im curious but does anyone have a descriptive picture of how A B and C routes look like?

[hamb0ne10]

hey what block did the darbelan spawn i have full today and ive been trying to spam the run on c over and over but so far no luck? any info would help

[_Vyser_]

Can someone explain the chart in this link? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v484/scottkuda/PSU%20shots/RareSpawnChart-SatelliteofDarkness.jpg

I don't quite follow it, so if you could help me read it I'd quite appreciate it

[Deprimenthia]

"Well, if I see a bunch of Punks with mohawks with "wannabe street" music playing from boomboxes..."

Real punks don't listen to "wannabe street music".

Anyways, nice find... So, where exactly IS that mission?

[Rashiid]

[Deprimenthia]

A1-AX, B1-BX etc. on the left are the map variations.

across the top lists different Blocks (Blocks 1-3) and the first creatures that spawn in each block.

look at the AX, BX, and CX variations.those are the rare maps. you will need to make sure the first spawn you see when you start the map is the one listed under the Block 1 First Spawn. (if not, restart the mission) you will also need to make sure the first spawn on Block 2 is the same as the one listed under Block 2/AX, BX, or CX rare maps. then carry on to the last bloc, find the rare monster and hope it drops the goods.

just keep looking at the chart. its not hard, you'll get it.

[Siertes]

What exactly does the (large: XXX) mean? Does it mean that is the first large enemy you meet in that block or the large enemies that appear on that entire block?

[-Asheth-]

GOT mine today. Confirming the C-X spawn map. I didnt get the drop until I got C-X I dont know if it helps any

[hamb0ne10]

i just ran it all night and didnt find junk but its cool i was using my lower level human character with 3 star luck... and was able to level him 3 times

huh? you mean the X'x in A-X, B-X, C-X?

those are the rare map variations. C1, C2, C3, and CX are all different maps. (CX being the one with the rare monsters in it)

[ljkkjlcm9]

No i think he means the large: ENEMY NAME, that's the bigger enemy that appears throughout the block, at least from my experience

I know what you mean (not about the doubles though lol) i have 3 star luck and im getting nowere, whats annoying now is that i keep getting the map that could possibly the rare one and the map that isn't rare. and you can't find out untill block 2.

[Siertes]

I've done the B-X run twice successfully. Still no Heart. I can never get the 2nd block right for C and the first block of A never seems to show up. Maybe I'm looking at it wrong.

[Skuda]

I've spent a good 10 hours of this day hunting for rare spawn maps. I found 1. 3 luck and only 1 map. My girlfriend has 0 luck, and she found 3 within an hour and a half.

luck is bloody screwed up if you ask me >_>

[Bluepheonix]

yea i know, i tend to be luckier when i have 0 luck atall, i found the board for twin crea on a ragan i had no luck. But this is annoying me now i mean really, the only good thing i've gotten is a hive room deco -_-

[Zorafim]

I see no reason to get this, really. There's a buyable unit that has the same effect, and you don't have to put up with the annoying black gunk. SUVs have half the effect, even.

[ljkkjlcm9]

annoying black gunk to you, is really cool black stuff to other people

THE JACKEL

[Siertes]

The only reason I want it is because other people want it.

[Bluepheonix]

lol i want it cause it looks cool, and well not many people have it, still no luck though and i think it's getting worse....
Maybe i should try when i have no luck lol

I believe you can get them on B Rank runs.

I'm going to make a guesstimate, but I think it means that within Block 1, when you fight a big monster, you should see whatever is listed.

Like the run I did today I had:

Block 1 - Dilnazen in the first room
Block 2 - I fought Jusnagun later in the block.
Block 3 - In the room to the right I think it was, I fought 2 Seed-Vance.

That would mean the map rotation I got was B-1. It's just a little thing that looks like it will help cut down the amount of time you spend in bad runs. For instances:

For the difference between B-3 and B-X.

Let's say you spawn 2x Pannon and 2x Delsaban in the first room, and you fight a SEED-Vance in Block 1. You'd be on track for either B-3 or B-X.

When you get to Block 2, naturally your first spawn will be 3x Delsaban. HOWEVER, if you fought Dilnazen during Block 2 and DIDN'T fight Jusnagun during Block 2, then you would know right away that you will NOT get the rare spawns, which means you don't even have to bother going to Block 3.


Since all three map rotations have identical Block 1's for a rare variation and a non-rare variation, you would continue to Block 2. But they have different "Large Enemy" in Block 2, so as soon as you encounter one or the other "Large Enemy", you will know if you should restart or not.

But...

If you look at the chart even closer, you will notice that for A-X and C-X runs, the first spawn of Block 2 is different than the incorrect map variation. That means you'd only have to do Block 1 and make sure it's right, and then check the first spawn of Block 2. If it's wrong, you wouldn't even have to bother with the rest of the Block looking for the "Large Enemy" at all.



I really hope this made sense. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

~~Nate

P.S. - I'm working on finding rare variations for Train Rescue, so if anyone has any information they could share I'd appreciate it. As far as I know there's only ONE map variation, so you'd just have to find the right spawn on only one type of map (instead of A, B, and C types.)

luck probably has nothing to do with rare map spawnage. (or does it?!) ive never noticed an increase on rare enemy spawns when i have any luck anyways.

i had 3 luck yesterday and tried for over 3 hours straight (and got quite efficient at it). i didnt get the rare map once. :/

[ANIMEniac]

ppl kept reffering to the cx spawn... so is there a different item u get on the ax and bx spawns?

[-Ryuki-]

Hey, I know that short female CAST that was with you. She's hot! =X

[McLaughlin]

Just got a rare spawn by accident in Satellite of Darkness B. 2/4 of the Darbelans dropped Copernia. Not sure which variant it was though.

[Para]

lol So far.. Ive seen an A-X spawn and B-X spawn in C rank.
4 of them so far dropped Meseta
2 of them so far dropped Oplad
2 of them so far dropped Copernia

[danny_o]

Well done! And you found it on C rank? How encouraging!

[Bluepheonix]

Well out of about 8 hours i encounter'd them 3 times, mostly in b-x, got oplad, cop and metsa too, im beging to think you can't et it on c rank, or if you can it's just hard as hell, and the drop gets increase the higher lvl you play right, so tomoz ima try on b, i have to get this heart! Addiction!

[SolomonGrundy]

What was your luck? I bet you need 3 luck

[Bluepheonix]

well when i had 3 luck i never met them, and today i had no luck and met them 3x so im guessing luck has nothing to o with it or somthing, or the luck is just plain ****** up. But im not giving up untill i get it!

[Emrald]

I can't see how it makes you look cool...i'm so confused

[Bluepheonix]

It gives you a black aura, thats cool enough, i guess people just have diferent taste in what looks cool and what doesn't

[McLaughlin]

Got a B-X That yielded 2 Olpads and a Copernia.

EDIT: As I posted I got a HIVE! HA!

Can anyone post pictures of the "proper" starting area? The descriptions are vague.

[-Ryuki-]

Hmm. Ask Stixx. He was the one doing all day yesterday (trying to hunt for it).

[Bluepheonix]

Just met them again on my first be run. although still nothing good -_- i'll just have to try tomoz now

[JC10001]

I tried this today at least 100 times. I kept getting CX block 1 right but then when I got to block 2 there would always be 3 Delsaban instead of 3 Pannons. I never even saw a Jusnagun or a Gaozoran the entire time I was there...even though they are listed for several times on the spawn chart. I got a few Meteoric Metals... a 7 star item... on C rank. I t says they can be used to make a weapon. I have no idea which one though.

As for the descriptions....

"Start in the 2nd room" is a room that curves/turns to the left if you are looking at it on the map.
"Start in the north room" is a long rectangular room with the exit to the next room on the north wall of the map.
"Start at the device" is a room that curves/turns towards the right if you are looking at the map. "The device" is a red laser barrier that you need to obtain a key for.

[Carbinne]

I think the B-X method (with 2 pannon/2 Delsaban) is the only one worth going after. Never seen C work and the A series in particular seems just wrong.

yea i agree i've allways met them on B-X, none of the others just allways go for that one, so far all of my encounters have been on B-X

[Zer0_ConvoY]

quick question, the A set (A-1, A-2, A-3, A-X) is for A rank and B for B rank and C for C rank or am I an idiot?

EDIT: to clarify, the reason I ask is because running C runs I've seen lvl variants that arrent in the C spawn chart

It's the different types of maps, were A-x being the one with the rare spwns on it.

Hey man it's alright, I had problems understanding the charts on psupedia at first as well about a month or whatever ago, because they had no explanation as to how to use them and it was all new to me.

Anyways, A, B, and C all refer to different map rotations. For A, you will start in a certain room on Block 1 always, for B, a different room on Block 1, and C again a different room.

Basically for example, if you start in the room that curves right, you have to use that spawn listing (C-1 C-2 C-3 and C-X). If you get one of the other two rooms in block 1, you would use their spawn listing accordingly.
