more fm weapons please

[Positive]

Aren't there already a billion swords out there?

We need more A-rank crossbows.

He means more other FM weapons...Better ACC axes, Double Sabers and Spears(not everyone has Grandias)

[Positive]

People actually use other melee weapons outside swords, twin sabers, slicers and whips? :-o

[str898mustang]

Yeah....actually

Protransers use knuckles for large one box enemies
FM use spears/double sabers for two-box/one box large enemies.
FM use double sabers to kill the last enemy or so with tornado dance.
Fortergunners use Spears/Single Daggers for enemies that are Melee-resistant.

[Tyreek]

They never did have Mt. Elbars at all in any past events did they?

[psu000]

Most likely the Eternal Heart is a mission drop and it 'should' be S rank, but you never know what Sega is thinking (or what the programmer had for dinner when programming this thing onto the update). In any case, can't see it being a 15*... I think

[sugarFO]

cant wait to see what the items will be for the exchange

sorry but it was more ironic. we get every event/GBR new swords double sabers axes. i miss a good Wand or a good TCSM. i still use okikudogs.. since i started on JP.. Sure okiku is not weak but compared to Rods... no chance.. not even with the higher casting speed you can do near the damage you do with a Rod

Isnt the double saber Eternal Heat (ヒート) instead of Heart (ハート)? Most people in PSP2i board called it Eternal Heat, if I recall correctly.

I guess that double saber will be part of the RSD trades. Just watch the other screenshot with the character holding a pair of Nightmare Blood (Twin Daggers version of the double saber)....I dont really expect them to be rare, sadly. Eternal Heat was A rank in PSP2i btw, so...dont expect it to be uber.

[hewitt]

Ahahaahahahahah, google translates the pink guns on the right to Pure Pure Heart Cancer.

That can't be right, can it?

Yeah; just a 3a.m. typo! D: Thanks for catching that; I'll fix it up there.

[Selphea]

...new mission is troublesome =x

[str898mustang]

new mission is easy.... :)

[Selphea]

I hate groping around in the dark for a random switch though =/

[XbikXBd]

new mission is easy.... :)

where are the disks?

[Karen Erra]

no discs you have to hit the switches :O

[XbikXBd]

no discs you have to hit the switches :O

switches?:-?

[Selphea]

For the first 2, fall into the pit and then run through the fake wall behind the Barta traps

[str898mustang]

Stage 3 has a fake switch.......Crys just tested with 0 Deaths and 3 switches and it will still 8 boxes. I wanna know where ブラッドイッジ drops

[Karen Erra]

lol whats the sense of those switches then? someone explain to a dumb person O.o;

[Crysteon]

I tried almost everything, and I keep getting 8 boxes.
- 0 deaths - check
- Pressing all switches - check
- Not killing ANYTHING in underground passages by using colored buttons - check
- Minimal mandatory killing (243, I think) - check
- All of the above combined - check

I thought the minimal killing count would have an effect, but nope...those switches are just a distraction if they do not add anything to your end boxes.

I also tried maximum killing count and I still get the same result.

EDIT: ..............................great...main site just reported there is a bug in Lambda regarding that switches are not adding extra boxes.

I just saw that...I'm new here so silly question ahead. Do they do emergency maintenance for this kind of stuff or will we not see a fix until next week?

[Positive]

Anything new dropping from the normal boxes though? I've gotten a cake spear, zantetsu, some machine gun, support line and gekka so far.

EDIT: H44 Missouri. EDIT2: The pink handgun thing drops too. EDIT3: Denial and Mantra.

lol awesome....hope they do an emergency maintenance.

Apparently the blade Edge(sp?) is dropping at the end. I bought two this morning...

Btw....the new double saber starts at 591atp, 421 Acc, and I forgot how much PP(I think it was 400+ though)

It also has a low variance of around 10 damage. I bought the materials and edges this morning. It came out 22% Dark....150mil down the drain, Biggest FAIL ever. Oh well I'll just 40% 10/10 it b/c Ten'imuso needs to be replaced...103 Acc doesn't cut it.

[Positive]

Judging by how they're not doing anything about it, I'm guessing there's nothing important in those extra boxes.

They'll be fixing it in the morning.

[Positive]

So usual maint time(s) except on friday? Or does it finish before 10 am?

EDIT: Nvm. Just read espio's post.

[str898mustang]

hm.....seems to be a new rifle.

http://psu.system11.org/uploader/src/up9334.jpg

[LP_Phoenix]

Cluster sword rifle? and yeah saw that on uploader.....wanna see the wep not stats

[str898mustang]

true....we need a pic of it

if it grinds well it may match or even beat out the M25SE Missouri (please dont though)

[Nel]

i hate how they do everything to kill the missuri stuff..

[Cleptomaniac]

Awesome! I just traded for a neutral eternal heat!!!!!!!!!!!

That's how it looks:

???

That's Astral Riser.

[Cleptomaniac]

I think they're doing maintenance in 35 minutes according to JP site?

[Crysteon]

That's right. It will take between between 11:00 - 18:00 JST

[sugarFO]

Awww, was kicked off lol ^^

[Omi]

Good thing they are getting it over with fast...

Will we get compensation?
Magic 8-Ball says "Fat Chance."... *shakes again*
Magic 8-Ball says "Distinctlic Possiblic."... *shakes again*
Magic 8-Ball says "Yes, Damnit."

I guess I will take 2 of 3 'yes' answers even if one was kubara.

[Cleptomaniac]

Servers are up!

3 big boxes in the middle of the other boxes.

[Positive]

Is there even anything super (new) rare in lambda? Or should I just go back to kappa?

[Wutmog]

Sorry if this has already been mentioned elsewhere, but is there a step by step guide on how to obtain the extra large boxes at the end of λ?

Preferably, with the least amount of kills possible...

[Positive]

It would be too complicated to write out in text. Better off waiting for those video TAers to make a video of it.

[psu000]

Why bother waiting for it if there are already maps made by JP user on uploader. If in doubt, you can always refer it with a C run

[Positive]

Anyone else getting random 052 disconnects after the fix? Happened to me twice already.

[Karen Erra]

I'm just uploading a quick C run for the where-to-find-the-switches. Will be up on youtube in a while, I gonna post the link then!

[WiZ1988]

What are the drops on A compared to K?

[Positive]

Nothing. You can just buy everything for cheap, which in a week will also be worth nothing. Unless you're looking for a 15* rifle, which doesn't seem so. :-?

[DeathDragon2332]

So it's better just 2 run the 1st mission then? I left my controller at a friends haven't been able 2 get on in a couple days.

[Illuminate]

Mind you A has twice as many kills as K, and if you skip the holes, you can run it just as fast, so yeah... Your kill points go up way faster on A. MP is better too, and possibly EXP as well.

[DeathDragon2332]

Ahh I see. I'm just in it for the drops so I just stick with K then. TY sir.

[hewitt]

Here we go:

JP PSU Protectors ? GUIDE - How to find the 3 switches - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24w9cyPawwk)

Is that custom music? If not I like it. Kinda sounds PSO-y too, good stuff

[Crysteon]

Nope, it's the default track for Mt. El-bars

[Swatshot00]

anyone else still waiting for the jp sever matinence?

[Positive]

anyone else still waiting for the jp sever matinence?

What? Usual server maint is in 5 days.

[Crysteon]

Perhaps he refers to the emergency maintenance we had on Thursday? I got lost also....

[Swatshot00]

I phrased that poorly, my bad. I recentley rejoined the PSU community by downloading the jp version, but no,051 occurs when I try to play. I've had experience with it before, and it usually means matinence. Someone else asked about it on the forums, and they were also told it was matinence. I was curious if anyone else is waiting for the matinence to finish.

[Proto07]

No maintenance for me. Bit of a slowdown but that's prolly cause there are so many players in the lobby.ZOMG a packed lobby and no one is spamming!1! (I'm new to jp :D)

[Karen Erra]

Rykros Eye seems to drop on S2 too :o didnt know that but just got one 23% :dark:

[Omega-z]

Karen Erra, the Jp wiki say's it is also dropping on S and can comfirm the S2 is also dropping them.

[Karen Erra]

Aaahh thanks for confirming that!

[Zerolimit]

is anyone sure where the eternal heat trade is? i cant find it

[Positive]

There is an extra page dedicated to the blood edge trades in the melee section.
