PSU JP: A few Famitsu wrap-up questions

[AxelgearVII]

To my fellow importers.

1)Could someone give me a quick run down of the prizes we won? I know one of them is synth rates +20%.

2)Anyone have an idea of when the reward period will be?

3)Anyone know what's coming up next after this is over?

And a comment... http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif @ us coming so close to 15 million Crossreview points. We could probably get that mystery ultimate prize if we had another week. :<

::shakes fist at Jaggo Sonichi distraction::

[Shiryuu]

We're definitely going to get 15 mil. We have 1 more week after Thursday (to make up for the login issues). Just sucks that Sonichi stays just as long... would've been great for cheaper bullet saves... :/

[Lyrise]

The important rewards you need to know are:

100% Room Deco synth rate
Lumilass services free for 2 weeks
+20% weapon and armor synth rates
Whatever the heck the 15m prize is.


And just cause we have 1 more week doesn't necessarily mean we'll make it. As fun as these missions were, and the payouts/S-Grade board rates were, lots of people are starting to lose all interest, since it seems that if you try to venture into areas outside of the club, there's a pretty good chance you're stuck soloing.

[Isabella]

the rewards all last for 2 weeks? or are some of them permanent o.o

[Lyrise]

Let me correct my former list and add a few notes:

What we are getting:
2 Weeks of 3 Star luck
2 weeks of +20% Armor/Weapon Synth Rates
2 weeks of 100% Room Deco synth
2 weeks of Clothing half price off
2 weeks of Lumilass services free of charge
What might be buried under 15m if we even make it at all.

[Isabella]

Thanks :^_^:

[Inazuma]

i dunno how the sonichi jaggos could slow us down. famitsu bonus mission 3's have em instead of rappies.

[Umberger]

How does the 20% synth bonus work? Say something has a 50% success rate, would it be 20% of 50% (making it 60%), or 20% added onto the 50% (70%)?

+20% to any percent, so the 70% one.

[Jet1337]

What kind of S boards drop? I heard Blackbull boards but I don't believe it.

[Phetty]

How did you get the Song of Death or Kebara grenade Launcher? Id like to know so if the Us ever gets this event I can get it.

assuming the pc/ps2 us servers will be linked to the 360 servers... You'll be up against me for that wep. =D

G'luck my friend, may the best hunter/guardian get it.. or with any luck, both of us. =D

I'm guessing it is going to be a one of?

[AxelgearVII]

I didnt realize we still had another week of Famitsu left. ;o I thought it was over when the servers went down tonight. Im sure we'll make 15 mil if that's the case. Any idea of when the reward period will start?

Clothing half off will be a good opportunity for me to make an armor PM too. I wonder if it would be worthwhile for me to make one over a Range PM.

@Jet- Any kinds of S boards that enemies drop or drop in that area can drop in Famitsu. So Blackbull could drop on Famitsu A since its got level 100 Dulk Fakis at the end. As for bonus missions, I dunno if it drops from boxes. But I know boards like Crimson, Two Headed Ragnus, Halarod, Shikikami, Uransara, and Carrgiune Rucar do drop.

@Phetty- Song for Death goes to the top 100 people with the most Crossreview Points. As far as I know only 1 importer is ranking.

[omegapirate2k]

Oh no, does this mean that any 10* melee weapons synthed in a pure striking during the increased synth rate period(85%+20%=105% http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif) will be able to be glitched like the bear claws?

Please tell me this isn't the case >.>

Wouldn't be a bad idea to tip off someone at sonic team about this. They most likely know already though.

I was thinking about it, might be a good excuse to make a profile on the official forums :/

Sucks that I joined too late. Could've easily been in the top 90-100 by now. :/

This sucks, only the 100 with less social life will get it...

when we get this i WILL be on the top 100! even if i get only like 3 hours of sleep a day and get yelled at and stuff!

that is my most favorite looking weapon in the game right now! i know it would sell for a lot and i would be tempted to sell it!

if i did get it i would price it for 30 mil when i go offline though XD its an awesome weapon but nothing can beat 30 mil! im sure it would sell eventually too, because of synthing later in the future and there only bieng 100.

[RikaPSOW]

The "Carrgiune Rucar" drops???

[pikachief]

watch they had to get 15 mil crossreview points and we'll have to get 30 mil T_T

and they are barely gonna make the 15 mil!

who here thinks that we wont make it?

i think we will barely becuase i will get at least half a mil myself! even if it kills me!!

[Shiryuu]

Which is impossible. 1 month of nonstop playing will only net you 30k. That's no eating/no sleeping/no breaks/no anything.

I do wonder why ORPG companies think it's a good idea to annoy everyone who isn't the x players with the most free time.

I mean, driving your customers away is surely a stupid business tactic.

The board does. I bought one for 1.3 Mil the other day and am currently attempting to flip it for 3 mil. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif That is...unless I get my hands on the equally expensive blades...

Wait... isn't every game like that?

[pikachief]

so does anyoen have the drop list for the famistu cup missions?

JP Wiki does.

Most of the relevant drops are listed here as well (http://psupedia.info/S-Rank_Listing).

thanks... im guessing most of the 10*'s drop and some 11*'s right?

[Rashiid]

jesus this will make the 360 go bananas......

*inserts Gwen CD

[AxelgearVII]

Fission mailed. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif Damn it. I wanted to know what the 15 mil prize was. Oh well, at least we got those other nifty prizes.
http://phantasystaruniverse.jp/event/famitsucup2007/

I realized no one answered my original question. Any idea when the reward period is? Even if its just a guess based on UA, which I was not present for.

Also, did anyone else besides me notice that Carriguine Blades (which sell for up to 3 million meseta) dropped on C rank in the 3rd EX mission? Im going to clean up if the ones I found sell. :3

[Ceresa]

http://pages.prodigy.net/bienb/psu15mil.jpg

Damn slackers.

[Shiryuu]

We failed hard.

All monster parts drop at any rank. Got a Svaltus Edge on C. Still no luck with the board though.

[JAFO22000]

If I may ask, how close did you come to the 15 million?

[Shiryuu]

^ Click axel's link?





It's 14,370,040 btw.

[JAFO22000]

Oh, sorry! Wow, looks like you guys came close! Do you believe that the goal was not reached because some people weren't participating, or simply because it was too difficult to attain, or perhaps some other reason? Did the Jaggo Sonichi appearance affect the event in any way?

Thanks in advance...just trying to gauge what happened in case we get this event as well.

So THAT was what what we would've had. A shame we didn't make it, but the 20% we DO get isn't anything to sneeze at.

[Shiryuu]

It's definitely not the jaggos, since to get them, we had to get an S on the normal mission (at least 8 points). People got lazy I guess.

But it's possible that the goal was just too high. We did get an extra week just for 3-4 days of log-in issues.

Watch everyone fail their 95% FO/RA stuff. >_<

[Zeota]

That would just be the luck of the devil right there.

[AxelgearVII]

I don't think it was the jaggos either. I think people might've gotten sick of playing the quests. We could have made 1.5 million in a week if the energy was at the same level it was at when Famitsu began. But all in all we did well.

I didnt know that. ;o I didn't even know about the blades until the last week when I decided to get Tierra a few job levels. I could have tried for Gaozoran rods also. ;< Oh well.

Im assuming we're not gonna get much else until AoI comes along. Here's hoping that Im wrong though.

What is it?

Great for people without Japanese knowledge to read that you know! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

[Lyrise]

2 weeks of synth rate +25%. And Shiryuu's correct. We failed HARD. The only reason why we even came close was because they extended it 1 week due to login server problems. But prior to the errors, we were NOWHERE near 15 million.
