Super Holy Luck Weeks

[Broodstar1337]

Who's ready to get a bunch of Kerseline?

::raises hand::

[Arcturus]

Who wishes they had the money to buy a Blackbull/Shigga Desta/Cubo Musrana/anything board to synth while we have the luck?

*raises hand*

[Broodstar1337]

Luck has nothing to do with synths, though it'll come in handy for the grinds.

The synth bonus is a nice thing, too, but I'm ready to get a bunch of fuck-you rares over the next couple weeks.

[Skuda]

Hopefully I'll be able to snag a few jigobooma spawns with this. And likely a flood of cactachairs as I hunt my neiclaw.

the price for the Desta board has gone down a lot in the last week. Snagged one for 1.8 mil. A few weeks ago it was at least 4 mil.

*Points to the luck-changey shrine maiden*

I'm ready to get lots of Kerseline for good, after this event. The way money drops now, I imagine luck won't be too difficult to buy...

[unis_ascele]

who is sick of every shop owner on the xbox 360 side selling neu ebon, par ebon and many other materials for the same or even higher prices as the NPC's?

And this topic just careens off into the land of Derail.

But yeah, it annoys me a little.

yep...but it adds flair!!!!

[Cerberus1981]

Even if I only get a ton of materials it's all good.

There's a lot of people still in need of synth materials, I don't make armour or force weapons so I've made over 6 million alone (360) just selling my Polymers, Resins, Ydral and 1 Diad.

I sold my resins for about 6k, my Polymers for 125k and my Diad for 550k.

A lot of people, actually. I visit these rooms to leave a message for the store owner, only to find that someone has already gotten to it before me.

[th0rnz]

I dunno but I'm gonna use it to farm a shit ton of catilium and diad in one mission, and make a shitload of money.

Diads - 450k a pop
Catilium- 300k a pop

Just so I undercut and they sell in ooohhh....3 minutes - 1 hour.

Made 1.2 million off of 2 1/2 hours of hunting just diad, didn't sell any of my 5 catilium.

Ummm, conditional shop search. Fix'd. Price gouging is a thing of the past.

Who wishes you would stop saying that?

*raises hand*

Let people believe what they want to believe. You've tried to convince people multiple times otherwise and apparently they don't want to listen. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[Kinako78]

CherryLunar's right. They're gonna believe what they want no matter what facts you shove in their faces, so just leave them be.

[kissablepimp]

I rather have item drop rate increased instead of tree star luck because for three weeks we will be getting crapy rares onces in a blue well get a good one.

I know, it's sad, but as long as someone gets the right information, even if it's not the person you're addressing, then don't worry about the people who want to be stubborn.

[Nuclearranger]

Im with Remedy on this subject if it were rare rate you wouldn't get a ton of low ranking things and in such quantity no doubt.

[Kinako78]

It effects rare item drops, not rare enemy sightings.

[Remedy]

*sigh*

It effects the drop-anything rate. Not the rare-drop rate. Every enemy has a given chance to drop ANYTHING, be it meseta, Kerseline, a rare weapon board, Dimates... any item off of its drop table, basically. If the RNG checks against the Drop-Anything Rate and determines the enemy drops something, then it's computed against the drop table for what it drops. Luck does not effect the percentages on the drop table, just the odds that any given enemy will drop something.

Luck increases the amount of stuff you get period. It does not increase your amount of GOOD stuff - that hinges on your real-life luck, not your Photon Fortune.

[Soulless]

My roomate just tried that fortune luck temple and now has 0 luck. I did warn him but he said he wanted to know what the NPC says etc.... pwned http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

[Kinako78]

Ok, sorry, Remedy. It effects the item drop rate in general. But it still doesn't effect rare enemy sightings.

[kissablepimp]

yes I read it in PSUpedia And I test this when I had no star luck I did sakura blast more than 20 times and got no jigobooma put then when I got three star luck the regular one not the 1up one I got jigobooma the first and secound run. so there.

[Remedy]

Circumstantial evidence, nothing more. Run a thousand trials on all four levels of luck and report your findings and then you MIGHT be on the road to proving something.

And don't believe everything you read on PSUPedia. I prefer guides printed by the actual company that makes the game, which explicitly stated what Photon Fortune does.

[Shadow_Wing]

All 4 instances of Jigoboomas for me and my friend, once with 0 luck, in fact that was about 30 mins before maint started, and 3 instances of lvl 1 luck. Luck is BS in other words for rare spawn http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

All it does is increase the frequency of items dropping, not the rarity or anything else, hell the most S ranks we get is during lvl 1 luck.

In other words, why rares drop with higher luck is based on the higher frequency of drops from enemies, more drops = more chances of a rare dropping <<;

Where? Our photon fortune article says nothing about it having an effect on rare enemy sightings, only item drops and grind success. To quote the article itself:


Photon Fortune only affects Weapon Grinding, and odds for Monsters and Boxes to drop Items (in parties only the Luck of the leader is used). Partner Machineries have the same Luck as female Cast characters, but this isn't of any use.

If there's anything somewhere else on the site that says otherwise, please let me know. I'd like to get any misinformation corrected ASAP.

[kissablepimp]

Sorry I thought it dealed with rare monsters sorry made a mistake well the jigobooma back to back was my luck.
