Content Update for May 12th

[str898mustang]

http://phantasystaruniverse.jp/news/wis/?mode=view&id=1391

Looks like the following:

Update to RSD 3rd
Newmand and Humans Base Ability points are being bumped up to 18(Human) and 16(Newman)
Attributes/Resistances will be bumped up to 27(Human) and the rest to 22(Newmna, Beast, Cast)
Existing Limit breaks will get name changes. Ra, Gi, & Nos techs will get Limit Breaks (HAPPY HAPPY ^^)
New weapons being released. Looks to be a new wand and grenade launcher.

No Idea why Cast and Beast didn't get bump in points on Base Abilities.

[GCoffee]

Mirage Blasts might be implemented as an Ability, perhaps. So those additional slots are to make use of them. Kind of an advantage if they are no extra unit, but they might be weaker, who knows.

We shall seeee.

True, didn't even think about that.

[VectormanX]

they are changing the names of the existing limit breaks to a shortened form. and adding limit breaks to RA,GI and NOS techs

D: Nice
will edit original post.

I've got almost 30 AP saved up too ^^

[GlacialTerror]

That seems like an odd place to put mirage blasts if that's the case. Seems like it would be under extra style like wild blast. I hope that they don't make all those limit breaks 10 AP a piece...that's like 12 spells so 120 AP D: And please extend these limit breaks to all the force types so their magic can be worth using!

Edit: According to the long term schedule the next GAS update will be style type so I bet that will be mirage blasts.


System updates
GUARDIANS Advanced Style
* 12th GAS: This wave will include new limit breaks to enhance the breadth of TECHNICs.
* 13th GAS: This wave will include new style customizations.

Maybe they gave them extra points since ares espada doesn't have that cap anymore who knows lol

Yeah, that sure would be nice to use LBs on WT, GT and AT, hell FT as well. FT needs a easy way to kill bosses

[Anon_Fire]

That wand is Evil Crust

[Shou]

I wonder if the new limit breaks will just make the techs more powerful or something more interesting. Here is hoping they make noszonde and nosmegid more useful.

[DPShiro]

That wand is Evil Curst from PSO, it was a saber then with the special ability to cast Megid (lv2?).

edit: seems i was a bit late

[Ryno]

All I want is the wand since is PSO original.

[Crysteon]

Grenade is Sleipnir, one of the winner weapons from last item design contest \o/

It's funny to see how a dragon spits explosive carrots xD

[redroses]

I always thought the Slepnir weapon is based on a horse?
Would make sense because of the name and the carrot shooting.

[Crysteon]

Sleipnir was Odin's horse in Norse mythology, but for some reason the design of the weapon looks like a dragon D:

[HienkyakuX]

nice news even though it's gonna be 120 AP only for the new LM X3

[Shou]

Bump for any newman, human or masterforce players on JP that hasn't seen this update yet.

[PSO God/Ability]

I wonder if the new limit breaks will just make the techs more powerful or something more interesting. Here is hoping they make noszonde and nosmegid more useful.

obviously nobody knows yet, but if i had to make a guess at the new lb's it would be the following based on the ball/line increases.
Gi techs, 10% increase in power.
Ra techs, extra target and 10% increase in power.
nosmegid/noszonde, extra target in groups and/or multiple hit boxes.
nosdiga, 4th hit.

Ra techs already hit 5 targets. There's not many missions where there's a 6 enemy spawn.

[hewitt]

If anything Ra- techs should get multiple hit boxes. Might not be too useful, but it makes sense for an explosion located at the body of a dragon to not only hit its left leg or something.

[Nereid]

Meh, forgot about this update lols. Poor CASTs left in the dust.

[Vent]

Meh, forgot about this update lols. Poor CASTs left in the dust.

For a Cast Masterforce, you still get the new Limit Breaks. ;-)

[Ezodagrom]

If anything Ra- techs should get multiple hit boxes. Might not be too useful, but it makes sense for an explosion located at the body of a dragon to not only hit its left leg or something.
This, but, in my opinion, or limit breaks should be accessed by other force classes (instead of just masterforce), or ra-techs should always hit multiple parts of big enemies, limit break or not (something like 2~3 hitboxes for normal ra-techs, 3~5 hitboxes for limit break ratechs).

[Crysteon]

It would be fun to see those LBs useable as any techer class except MF.

[Vent]

It would be fun to see those LBs useable as any techer class except MF.

Any reason to play MF then?...:-?

[str898mustang]

Any reason to play MF then?...:-?

Yes b/c those other classes still cant use LB Diga/Foie

[Ezodagrom]

Any reason to play MF then?...:-?
Reasons to play MF? What about the high casting speed and the highest TP out of all force classes? :>

[unicorn]

All techers should have access to Limit Break. Because attack techs are useless to them 90% of the time.

Masterforce would still be the strongest, since it has the most TP, quick casting speed, and certain exclusive ehancements (like Wand+ etc)

If Ra or Gi techs get multiple targets, then MF will simply be the best boss killer.

[Nereid]

Did the servers already go down? I finished installing/downloading the client on my desktop and it won't let me log in lols.

[Crysteon]

It went down around a hour and a half ago. (11:00am JST)

[Nereid]

Boo. Oh well, I have a lot of other games to reinstall on this computer, I can do that now, instead.

[danny_o]

Does anyone know how long maintenance will last?

[Nereid]

It's usually like 6 hours I believe, maybe longer. It always comes up very early in the morning for me (EST/CST).

[Crysteon]

11:00am-6:00pm JST (it uses to end at 4:30pm-5pm MOST of the time)

[danny_o]

Oh, I see...

Thanks, guys. I think I'll just watch some TV then go to bed instead of holding vigil!

[milranduil]

I am holding steadfast. Got 23 AP saved for (hopefully) 2 new limit breaks with additional AP easily quickly obtainable with MB spam. \o/

[Crysteon]

Like I said before, it will be a lolfail if they are restricted for MF ;<

Poor Failtechers, they need some love :0

[str898mustang]

only 23? lol 30 AP FTW!!

Gonna test Rafoie, gidiga, and nosdiga once servers are up.

[Crysteon]

I'm still indecisive about what stat to cap on Basic Abilities now, lol....how about HP? ;<....I like having lots of HP (maaaaan, I miss my 5k HP as AF ;_; )

[milranduil]

only 23? lol 30 AP FTW!!

Gonna test Rafoie, gidiga, and nosdiga once servers are up.

I didn't realize we were getting Limit Breaks until this afternoon lol. I went from 17 to 23 before servers went down. I'll get enough to get a 3rd limit break before I sleep tonight. If I knew like a week ago, I would have capped to 30 straight away instead of playing bchcast.

Failtetecher gets Ra-techs

Nothing for AT

[Crysteon]

Like I said before: LOLFAIL!!!

EDIT: OMG...BS...

They just added the lolwand and Sleipnir (A rank...wtf) for trades.

[str898mustang]

fT might be a little fun to play now

[redroses]

So, I just saw on the uploader that the Limit Break Ra Techs hit multiple spots on enemies o_o How evil D:
Is it know what Gi and Nos techs do yet?

[milranduil]

Well Ra-tech limit breaks are broken...well would be if they were MF. They increase Ra-tech hit limit by one and allow complete multi-target. With Lv 40 Radiga, I was hitting 5 targets on De Ragnus.

[str898mustang]

yeah but Ra techs go to FT
Gi-techs go to Wartecher
Nostechs go to Guntecher

[Crysteon]

fT might be a little fun to play now
http://psuxxx.info/uploader/src/up8374.jpg

Holy.......they really gave some love to the unloved FT, lol.

Sigh....
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/DPTastic/lolTP.jpg

Almost 2.6k TP now...such a wasted talent there.

[Midori Oku]

Well this sucks.

[Crysteon]

Well this sucks.

Agreed. *cuts self*

[unicorn]

Agreed. *cuts self*

but you dun play techer!

[str898mustang]

Well this sucks.

LMAO, I was waiting for your response to this

[Midori Oku]

Lots of empty space on Masterforce for upgrades in the Attributes/Resistances, Sega!

[unicorn]

I wonder if FT/GT/WT might become decent TA types with tech limit breaks.

[Crysteon]

but you dun play techer!

I know...I'm just making fun of Midori, lol.

[Midori Oku]

I wonder if FT/GT/WT might become decent TA types with tech limit breaks.
At least FT can now kill dragon type bosses. I believe they would still have a harder time with Mother brain/Dulk Fakis 1st.

I know...I'm just making fun of Midori, lol.

Thanks! >.>

[Crysteon]

Anytime! ^_^

[VectormanX]

wonderful, im really diggin this stuff

[milranduil]

Thanks! >.>

With attack range plus, you should still hit 4 targets on the face, let alone on the arms...I don't know what to think right now lol...

[Nereid]

lolol I'm glad that the LBs aren't for MF, other classes need some love, leave the OP classes where they are.

[Crysteon]

AF needs love now!! Sigh....wishful thinking...

[VectormanX]

AT needs megistar LB to buff the whole party in 1 go. i'd buy it.

[Nereid]

Agreed. Maybe the next uber will be a slicer that tops out at 900ATP with a 20% PA boost. And then they can buff various PAs that same update. Oh, and then they increase all of our base stats.

[Midori Oku]

With attack range plus, you should still hit 4 targets on the face, let alone on the arms...I don't know what to think right now lol...

With hitting two spots on the face and half damage on each arm the DPS (not to mention casting speed) would be lower than LB diga right? Or am I missing something? Dam-techs should still be better than Ra-techs at taking out mobs of enemies. I still don't think this is enough to make FT good compared to MF.

[milranduil]

Yeah overall, MF is still better, but it mkes fT much more playable. Not TA worthy I don't think though.

[Midori Oku]

At least Fortetecher no longer sucks on JP. Even if the 360 servers ever got these limit breaks FT would still suck ass fighting Mother brain/Dulk Fakis. lol

If it is possible could you make a video of a Ra limit break?

[Crysteon]

Agreed. Maybe the next uber will be a slicer that tops out at 900ATP with a 20% ATP boost. And then they can buff various PAs that same update. Oh, and then they increase all of our base stats.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.....two names came to my mind: Shidenji-hiken OR Dragonic Edge

[CyberNei]

Woo finally Nei will get some usefull techs :-)

[GlacialTerror]

Very interesting. Each type will "specialize" in one series of techs. I guess this means down the line acrotecher will get limit break Dam- spells? (Or maybe Sa- spells and that's why they got no love now)

Some pics are out for the others

correct me if im wrong but it seems that LB・Nos are exclusiv for guntecher LB・Gi for wartecher and LB・Ra for fortetecher D: or i realy missed something. D: D: D:

yep thats how it is. though fT looks pretty nice now.

[The Master eye]

hmm sucks :/ wish there had at least give FT all new LBs :S

[PSO God/Ability]

Well this sucks.

agreed...

[unicorn]

I know MF players are probably pressed, but this is great for the game overall. It gives people more playing options than the obvious Masterclasses. Besides, MF still has an overall edge.

Are you willing to play FT now? D:

I dunno why people is going dramatic over all this....MF still has its own advantages, lol.

[Vent]

I'm switching to FT now of course...when I get enough AP for Limit Breaks that is. :D

[unicorn]

I always liked FT more on paper, but there was no justifying playing it.

I might go FT now :B

[str898mustang]

I'll be torn between both. Guess it depends on the mission

Though which would do more DPS?

10/10 Lavis Arrow w/ proper Elem. Bullet or 10/10 Imperial Rod w/ Noszonde or Nosmegid? (Not counting De Ragnus)

[Vent]

Does anyone have the stats of Evil Curst?

[milranduil]

lol
http://www.psuxxx.info/uploader/src/up8379.jpg

[DPShiro]

I think it's great that they give the less useful classes some love. Too bad we will never see them on our servers.
FT actually seems useful now :)

[str898mustang]

Does anyone have the stats of Evil Curst?


unless it has a 3x SE rate, it's not even worth using, doesn't even top 500tp at 10/10

[Crysteon]

I'd rename that weapon on purpose: lolCrust.

Mmmmmmmm....crust....

[Ryno]

unless it has a 3x SE rate, it's not even worth using, doesn't even top 500tp at 10/10

What are you talking about?. It is worth using. Phasion wise.

Just like how I only equip pink things.

*dies*

[Nereid]

Amesani says it does have increased proc rate for SEs but we shall see..

[Omega-z]

I'm wondering what they did with the Dark and light base Gi/ Dam based problem with the new LB's, talking about Gi-reasta, Regrants, and Megiverse? since 1 is a healing spell and the other two are similar to Dam spells since they channel but have Gi spell Icon?

Just notice that they only have the four main Gi spells at the moment but the others mite be a problem when the get to those.

If AT did get LB - Dam spells for there's I would say gi- reasta for WT and Regants for AT since a little closer to a Dam spell then a Gi spell. And make Megiverse a Gi spell for WT since there's already Dammegid as a dark dam spell.

Interesting, this made me very curious

[Vent]

Meh. Fortetecher still has an awkward thing of not having S-rank TCSM...what to do...

[Nereid]

Even with this update I can't see it competing with Masterforce still. Just went from being the worst class in the game to an alright class, probably.

[DPShiro]

Meh. Fortetecher still has an awkward thing of not having S-rank TCSM...what to do...

Does people on JP use anything other than 10/10 Rutsularods anyway?

[Nereid]

lolyes, they're pretty rare and extremely expensive.

[FOkyasuta]

Does people on JP use anything other than 10/10 Rutsularods anyway?

My guess is, A total yes.

I'll take note of that.

[DPShiro]

I'll take note of that.

I didn't mean all the casual players, more the dedicated ones :)
From what i hear, nothing even comes close to a Rutsularod 10/10's DPS?

That would mean that TCSM's are just another healing stick, and FT not being able to use S ranks of them doesn't matter.

[Nereid]

Yeah a few more dedicated MFs have one 10/10, but if you need more than four spells other items may come in. Overall though I think you could get over it with different rods or using Kongoras or something.

[Adriano]

In my opinion rutsularod is pretty ugly.
I'd rather use the imperial rod or caduceus any day.

[Nereid]

Imperial Rod?! Blech, so ugly x_x

[Crysteon]

In my opinion rutsularod is pretty ugly.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAT? I like the looks, lol ;<

[unicorn]

Rutsu is unattainable for most of us. I live vicariously through Odessa and I accept that.

For everyone else, Imperial Rod, Sorceror Rod, Goth Parasol, and Caduceus get the job done.

I tend to prefer my Sorceror since its pretty rare and just epic for its rarity. And it suits me.

I think Rutsu looks out of place on a lot of users (since most are like scantily dressed Lolis). I think Odessa and Red* look cool with it. Bobby's looks funny with it (not throwing shade!!!)

[Nereid]

Yes I quite like the Sorcerer and the Riser. Caduceus is blah to me, and I probably wouldn't ever use a Fluge on it, lol.

What's the T on those Goth parasols, I don't think I've seen one in game yet. I'm curious what they look like.

Don't get me wrong guys, If I had a rutsularod, I'd totally use it, if it was free.
But I wouldn't go out of my way to get one, since it's not attractive.
Also, my techer wears tan and brown so yea..
I love kongora though (It looks good the house down;)), I'll sell my writing hand for one.

Weell...it depends of the perspective you wanna see it...

At least he worked his ass to gather the money to get them all...most of people would try RMT first before doing the bars gathering...and he didnt RMT, because I was there when all his trades were effective.
