so, um do the new S2s have any new drops?

[SolomonGrundy]

I looked on PSUpedia, and it looks like the drops are the same for our new batch of S2 missions (I looked at caves of ice, and awoken serpernt).

Awoken serpernt did not list any boss boxes.

Can anyone report on some improved drops in these S2 areas?

[RACast_Raiden]

No Change

[Shiryuu]

Lapucha drops Arb Boa boards.

[amtalx]

From what I hear, drops won't change until Lvl 150+ enemies. So yea...ST has drop rate/experience/event boosted us right out of shit to do in this game.

[EngelBlut]

nothing... just more pa frags

Good to hear you've hunted up all your top-tier A-rank units, 11* rares for 2-3 jobs, armor, etc. but maybe playing 18 hours a day is bad for the rest of your life.

Actually I'm missing a Sori / Mind...got one? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif Nobody gives 2/3 of a fart about that unit yet the prices are outrageous.

On the other hand, I'm now convinced that ~100 runs of any mission will yield at least one of every drop available.

[panzer_unit]

Yeah, I've got a Sori/Mind ... nothing else for gunner 11*'s tho :

I hunted Needle Cannon for the week between Winter Event and GBR, and got nothing for it but a pile of Hanmaterics waiting for the grind desk. I'm hoping for some love from Desert Terror S2 once I hit a team that doesn't need to do loops to improve their boost rate any more.

I used sori-mind when I was a protranser running the ice caves with freeze resist and sori-senba. So it does have it's uses. Just that it's pretty situational.

I can report improved difficulty! Soloing those two maps is challenging http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I can do that in S rank missions. Why do S2? For the PA frags? Lol.

for the higher EXP, the PA frags, and the higher MP, its not that much harder is what i've been told http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

You would think that S2 versions would be worth the effort but ...sigh...>.>

Nah i think i stick with spamming Desert terror seeing as it´s the only worthwhile place to spam there on Moatoob besides Desert Goliath..
Desert Terror is fun and it got that rare i wanted..Gur Asted..http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif....Desert goliath is frustrating to solo but very duable but hardly fun on your own..>.>

Reason DG is a bitch?
Cheap enemies with home-seeking missiles that always seem to hit no matter what you do on open spaces.

And the boss is cheap as well.

Misions with lv 125+ enemies drops Materials more frequently *hint hint* 13* mats

[Xefi]

level 125+ is good for hunting materials maybe? didn't the update mentioned improve drop rate for boxes when monsters level 125+? That is probably another good reason to do S2 De Rol Le. For the sake of improve materials drop rate!

GuardianElite beats me to it.

Aha i see at least something good comes out from it.
Still..AS and CoI are no fun missions IMO.
Probably only do it for materials when i´m desperate.
