PSU: Full of PAs

[Warren683]

I remember reading that once AotI came out there was a method to save old PAs onto some sort of a disc or something for access later. Is there any truth to this, and if so, how might I get this working in-game?

Sorry in advance if this is a stupid question. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Yeah it's true =) and very useful for multi-classing with one charcter or giving a nice boost to a low level alt. All you do is select the PA from your PA list (Player Information->Photon Arts list) and press enter, or whatever button you have select set to if you're using a controller. If the PA isn't linked to a weapon in your inventory it will give you the option of turning it into a disc. You can transfer the disc between your own characters and it will retain its level, meaning you can have a level 1 character with level 40 PAs http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Seriously? That is awesome, thanks! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

So does that mean its possible to use PAs, disk them and hand them to another character, then disc them again and shuffle them back to the original character?

yes, your ALTs can use them but they CANNOT leave your account.

in other words, the PAs can be shared WITHIN your account only

yes
you can't only trade with other ppl (other accounts), but you can trade between chars in the same account.

At the same time though if you have lvl 40 diga disc, and a brand new force, the disc wont actually be 40 it will be maxed out at lvl 20 till you change you class to FT.

That seems reasonable for such a service in the first place.

One last question now. Does it just save to one disk, or can you make multiple or limitless disks? I don't mean like you can spam your level 40 diga to five disks at a time, but like you can split your PAs over six disks and keep the perfectly grouped.

I'm a bit of a neat freak is all. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I think its just one disk per PA.
