No one really plays this mission. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_confused.gif

Why, you ask? Well, I'd assume most people would say it's because of the reward for S Rank (3450 meseta and 30 MP) isn't that great and I'll agree that it could definitely be a bit better given the difficulty.

Some might say it's too hard? I'd have to disagree. While the Rogue(Jasse)'s can be a pain with their heavy damage and constant evading/manuevering they're pretty susceptible to any damage you throw at them. Robots? Pfft, killer shot owns thems and so does any Ice-based technique since they're all fire. Hunters would be the only class to have trouble with them. The Rogue(Oggs) are just the same as the other ones. The Dilla Griena? Treat them the same way as Seed-Vitaces Burn em, infect em, beat em. End of story.

I think I might've contradicted myself. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Some might it's the drops? While I'll agree that Forces and Hunters might not getting anything amazing out of this place. For FG, GT, and/or fG there is one drop that I know is pretty nice. The Cubo Mamba (9* Xbow http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_yes.gif). Is definitely something I wouldn't mind.

My point..it's a fun (IMO, of course. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif ) mission, so why don't you guys try it out!

:nijaedit:

And if I thinking correctly.. Once the S2 version of this is released won't the 10* Xbow drop from this place? Ooo, Cubo Musrana I defintely want.

Being a robot, I don't think Dilla Griena are actually burnable. Also, I don't think Drumlines drop there, either. It is a fun mission regardless, though. Unfortunately, I've only been able to do it on S a total of once, and that was when it first came out.

Its not that i dont like thw mp.
Of course its fun. Good music...
But its soooooooooooooooooo long. I swear. Me and a few friends were going to lab s2, took us like, 35minutes with a full team. Now, lab S2 took us around 20 or so minutes, and it gave us more of a reward
Im sure when the s2 comes out, more ppl will do it, but i doubt go to rare hunting...

Thanks, A2K. Fix'd!

I'm doing the soloing the mission right now. Well, the PM and Lou are with me they've died a few times, but I'm still on 0. Anyone on X360's free to join. Could use a little help. >>; Uni 15, of course.

Your right, this place is a great mission for forces and especially rangers to run.

But this all comes down to a point i made in the "De Ragan Fetish" thread, Hunters dont like robots, so they wont play that area. And since the largest group of players playing PSU are hunters, the rest of us basically follow there coat-tails.

Yeah, the music is great. It's really not that long especially when compared to Grove of Fanatics with its endless and winding corridors. Eh, but Grove has a aweseome drops too. So it makes it worthwhile.

I hate those Jesse beasts in S, right alongside those female Newmans in Temple. Those bullets hit me HARD (like. 300 a pop, ow.) I tried soloing it on fG awhile ago and those chicks made it unbearable, despite everything else being a breeze (I love all the walls that the mobs can shoot through but you can't)

Another nice thing that can drop (in A as well) is the Creasword board.

The crea sword drops tehre as well (on A I think). I would love to play there more often if more people were down. i don't have any running partners so I usual solo. this is not a place you really want to solo unless you're pretty much capped. Atleast my fF and GT think so.

Train rescue? That's my favorite mission and I'm a hunter too! Just wish more people did it.

Alpha-Hunter

have you gottenthe creasword to drop yet VanHalen? I have yet to see one. and as a sword fF i'd love to have one.

^ Nope I haven't http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif I'm a fF too http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif and I would love to find that weapon. That is one of the must have weapons on my list.

When I go back to Fortegunner I'll prolly run it every so often... but only because my friend loves the mission (it reminds him of PSO). = Killer Shot makes short work of robots, twin handguns own the Rogues, and the Grenade Launchers rock the SEED boss.... but... = the mission just isn't very good XD I'm much happier running Lab or Crimson Beast (I just like the locales themselves, so don't even bring up the "YOU NOOB DO OTHER MISSIONS" crap), and I get good items and rewards, to boot. Moatoob is looking pretty fun now, too http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

lol - if you two spam train - count me in http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif I try to run it at least once a day and I use killer shot on...EVERYTHING XD Sure - I might not S rank it (solo) but the drops are usually enough to offset the amount of cash that I spend on recharge http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

FiGunners at least can hang? (dark machine gun, and twin handgun). My forte has no issue with robot defense, it's the getting set on fire ever 2 seconds that irritating. Ice fists, and sword take care of the 1/2 damage from melee part.

Man, that sound like fun. Definitely wish I could join you guys. I solo'd it today and it's not half bad. Of course, the Jasse's were a pain in the ass, but everything was smooth sailing. Had to use my card and Xbow on the Dilla Griena otherwise I would have gotten pwned more times that I did. >>;

I could use a 9* Macross >_> Next time I'm on we'll have to duo it.

Sure thing, Tylor. But since when did you use Xbow's? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

If you're on, I'll definitely drop you a line, Sekani. Although, I don't think you'll have too much fun playing the missions that I like to do. Endrum Remnants, Grove of Fanatics S, and Train S. I'm more than willing to play other stuff though. We should play some more Desert Goliath S again! Or perhaps Desert Terror S! It all sounds like fun, son!

I love the setting and music but hate the mission itself. Enemy and room variety are very lacking. It wasn't so bad in either of its story mode appearances so ST can make it a fun mission... of they try. Maybe they'll make a party mission of it going from the temp base back to west holtes? Afterall why would the train go only one way?
