I'm spamming for it. It needs more people there's barely anyone there. It pays better than sea bed S2 (24k) and has way better drops. (If your wondering how long it takes depending on the party 15-20 minutes)(Must be level 75+)

It's a lot faster for the same cash/frag/mp rewards, and a chance of S-ranks as opposed to other S2's I can name.

Were there EVER any people there? ST "Nerf'd" it to appease the people who said there was too much and the mission took too long, and now there is not as much and the mission doesn't take as long....yet people STILL aren't there?

I mean, the amount of breakable trees/rocks which were added seems like a plea from the designers...."Please play Moatoob! See? There's a crapload of MetaCarbon/Resin/Polymers and Mot Ebon now! No good still? How about the possible S rank drops?.....No? We've shortened the missions! You no longer have to backtrack in DT S2 and won't encounter that 3 Bil De Ver + 7 Bul Buna spawn any more....No? What do we have to do to get you into Moatoob today??"

The first time I went trough a bil de axe board drop.
A lot of Mot ebon and Mot Walna drops, An those swarms of parasite ground monsters have been cut down to a swarm of 2, not so much a swarm anymore.

Make the rares drop often enough, and people will go there.

I really miss the old mission... CRUSH U WITH AN ARMY OF FIRE BREATHING CROCODILES IN EVERY BLOCK! SRSLY WHERE DID WE EVEN FIND SPACE FOR ALL THESE DURA GOHRA?! FREE ZOOKS FOR EVERYONE BUT PANZER! LOLOLOLOL

They could have added rocks and trees to that.

They should just split the missions.
For example:
S-S2+ - Nerfed missions
X-X2+ - Old missions or harder versions

Actually, when it first came out, there were QUITE a few people there. But with lvl cap raised and Plains Overlord S2 and Sleeping Warriors S2...They all went back to Parum.


Oh btw...I hope they never nerf HIVES...Ever. I'm sure weaksauce hunters will cry about the S2 of the mission being "too hard"...But um..Since when was the current highest difficulty level in the game supposed to be EASY? In my opinion, ST listens to the wrong people too much and never listens to the right ones. The game is easy enough as it is, don't make it any easier, ST.

They did something similar to Onmagoug. C-A rank was the old layout while S was the route with more Tenghogs.

Make Dimmalogus a lot less tedious, too, while they''re at it. Let him keep his attack strength, but ffs, it is a boring battle.

You can say that of pretty much ANY new level. "When X first came out, there were QUITE a few people there. But upon the release of Y and Z, they all left and went there."

I remember when Mizuraki CD was the place to be!

*BTW, if you haven't run them since the "Adjustment", Moonlight Beast and Demons Above are quite easy now as well. WAY less "large" enemies on MB (Tengohgs and Kamatozes) and less Tengohgs on DA.

Nerf FTW. It's so much easier for me to solo it now. And yet I've got nothing to show for it. XD

It's still a pretty good mission, VERY solo friendly. It used to take me 40 minutes to do B1 as a Figun, I can now do the whole thing as a GT in a little over an hour. (Frozen Fury and Burn Gs FTW)

Well, I'm only not doing Moatoob because Parum and Neudaiz have stuff that I'm more interested in. Well, Axes and Fists don't sound so bad, nor does Orpad Legs, but come on, I'll never even get an S rank armor to use that thing, and Twin Sabers, Big Swords, and arm units are more appealing to me.

After playing through it a few times... I really like the changes. Amazing amounts of useful synth mats drop there now http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif

I just thought of something. We need a mission on Moatoob that takes place in an area that's filled with Drua Gohra and that's all you fight.

And they take half damage to everything and can't be SE'd except for freeze. Its drops should be raised by 175% as well. Also, instead of foie, they spit megid.

Yeah, and instead of clearing the mission, you fail every time for no reason and get no reward. That'll give the challenge seekers something to do http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif

It takes longer to drop Dimmagolus now than it does to get through the entire rest of the mission. And it's not too hard to S-rank for dollars.

Then on PC / PS2, you lose 1000 meseta per second a Drua Gora is alive, and you can only start if you have 1mil meseta minimum with you. Also, anyone with "Sie" in their name gets their whole inventory, PM, and shared storage box reset.

Tunnel Recapture does a pretty good job of packing you with Druas. Just pure game for my ice axe http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

they need to keep the big spawns! no one does it now cuz hardly any enemies for good EXP or S ranks anymore! there was a big group of people there all the time at least on 360! like at least 8 parties, now theres absolutly no one there!

It's too bad they don't drop the Gur Barza there.

I've been doing it a lot still. The biggest single nerf is the tiny number of Bul Buna. I guess Bul Buna statues will go up in value soon? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif There are still maps with severl Bil De Veers, maps with many giant lizards and so on, but you have to shop around to avoid the "nothing but Navals and 2x Vanda" maps.
