Wish I had made an opportune screenshot or something but anyway here me out.

So big spider boss spawns, right? We kill it after a little while since the entire group wasn't there at first.

So the very moment it dies:


"Change Over - Capture"
"Capture the Dark Ragne 0/1"

FAIL

what


WAT.

Well, guess that was to be expected, seeing your username...

Could be worse, for example Code: Duel halfway through it with the Vol Dragon guess what happens? Code: Rescue. Guess who was the lucky one? I was dragged across the map and because I'm able to deal tons of damage as Techer, guess who pulled aggro on the Vol Dragon?

I took screens of my misfortune and will upload those later to show you immense misfortune. Also Code: Destruction came up after I get stomped.

While not nearly that level of BS...

>Telepipe out in Tunnels
>Come back
>Immediately get hit by a floating mine with no chance to dodge

I've had that happen before. Getting a CHANGE OVER: CAPTURE as the boss is doing its death animation. So silly.

They're like Porkymans. You need to get them low in HP before catching. Sadly, the ball ended up killing them. D:

lol Self-destruct.

Yeah, about half the code captures i get in mps are right near or at the boss's death. The other 50%? Well half of that may actually get captured. The other 25% is just killed anyways (no matter how many people realize it's capture; someone either doesn't care or is clueless).

Code: Duel to Code: Capture really isn't all that bad compared to other combinations out there.

I think I was in that multi party area if it was a Ragne in the Desert, since that same thing happened to me yesterday. My bad luck knows no bounds.

That always happens with ragne change over captures. It probably always kicks in at 25% hp left or something, but on an exposed immobile weak point in an MPA...yeah.

Does it even matter? The boss still drops if you murder it. You just miss out on the code EXP/Meseta/Item

Apparently change over code captures are bugged and block breakable part item drops - so no extra common drops from breaking parts, no rare units, no part-specific rare weapons, etc.

Are there part-specific rare weapons? Last I remember all breaking monster parts did was add in the possibility of the units dropping. I mean all bosses that drop units are bosses where you break off parts of them.

Yes. For example, the stone rifle thing that Caters can drop. It only drops if you break the tail crystal, I believe.
