gacha

[pkersinc]

this may seem like a noob question but after playing the beta I still have no idea what gacha is or what it is used for... same with FUN. PS: haven't played pso since BB.

gacha, or gachapon, is basically just a grab bag kind of thing

It's basically this idea:

Except swap the toy capsules out for in-game goodies

Do... do we have to swap out the toy capsules?

Grinder in a little plastic capsule.

Was it just me or was I doing something wrong where I was only getting grinders through the gacha machines? If thats the way you have to get them then I don't like that and hope they change that.

I found plenty of grinders in the field, probably 60 over the course of CBT. That's if my japanese is worth its salt.

Nah, you can get grinders are normal drops

[Macman]

Rappies and sometimes boxes drop grinders. Maybe even normal monsters occasionally do, too.

If you hit the rare Rappies for their bonus drop it is almost always a grinder.
