a 30 minute 100% boost is never worth it as that's not very long and you may as well count this literally as a 0.001% boost to drop rates. The game doesn't reward effort nor do they intend on changing that. (I still love the game anyways.... oh god....) My best rare after 1k+ hours also happens to be a Ruin Charm. <3<3<3

At least this makes up for one of the 100% Triboosts I've used lately, but a thirty minute boost is hardly compensation for five hours of lost gameplay. Oh well. Free item. Yippee.

I know that feel. I had a 20ish minute 12 man exit burst on coast mpa a few days ago where I used a 100% triboost and got 0 rare drops. Not even one of the shitty 8* drops that for some reason they added to the loot table.

A 100% boost to nothing is still nothing.

exactly.. reminds me of my 405% AQ ruins run with not even so much as a red weapon~ With multiple PSE bursts/Cross bursts~

I use all my boosters for Falz now as GU since I don't care for anything other than GM (pipe dream, yeah) and the rates for everything else are bad enough that bursts will simply never drop them. You really can't depend on rares in this game at all.

That is the sad truth~ What made PSO1-BB fun was that you got rewarded for working for your rares. Want a P-wand? go kill 1-500 rare lillies and you're most likely to get one within that. They had specific quests with fixed enemy spawns that made hunting rares or rare monsters worth your time. Even if the drop rate was terrible for whatever you were hunting.


They took that and more and threw it out of the window so that now the game becomes more of a chore instead of something fun and potentially rewarding.

I think you are making that sound way too easy. Finding the rare versions of one specific monster was hard enough, and then you had to hope that you had the lucky chance for it to drop a rare. At least that's how it was for me on the console, BB might have seen updates.

It was very, very easy if you knew which quests to pick and which rooms to run straight for and then when to stop and restart said quest~

I've found many P-wands on version 1&2 + BB.

What i'm saying is that PSO2 is 100% rng on spawns and spawn locations, making it even harder to farm anything aside from bosses specifically~

The only way it was easy to find rare spawn's like that was to use the pipe trick. And well, that wasn't good, finding rares easy isn't a good thing in the least. PSO2 uses that RNG, to keep players playing, it might take longer (much longer) to find something but, hey. It's better than finding the strongest Rod withing like a whole day of telepiping back and forth.

I don't know, it feels rewarding almost destroying your console just to get a rare you want. lol

The drops rates are horrible but what are you going to do.. Let's not talk about XQs now that's a pain and the ass

UNLESS YOUR SOME OTHER PERSON USING AIDAS ACCOUNTS ON PSO2 AND ON HERE .


Which comes to mind when I met you in that MPA you didn't even know who I was.. hmmmm questions.. questions.. questions..

That was my brother, I barely played any of PSU. I sent you a message, I don't blame you for being confused :p

Question though - How often do they end maintenance early? I was hoping to get some TACOs in before sleeping.

Awww boo.. well tell Male Aida I said get his ass on PSO2.. miss him :-).. And you missed PSU it was fun till the reskin fiasco/no more updates lol

Also LMFAO at the mssg..

It's better than finding the strongest Rod withing like a whole day of telepiping back and forth.

Rare enemies are completely pointless in this game though outside of discs. The point of rare enemies in PSO1 was to offer an alternative method of hunting that provided far better guarantees (like a Sange, Froozer, or Demo Comet off a rare enemy at 1/2 rate) over just trying to hunt the worse rate normally. Outside of 12*s like Lavis and Psycho Wand (and of course they're difficult drop rates, duh), there were plenty of reliable hunts in the game. As a Skyly, Red Sword and Chain Sawd could be hunted in the same EN2 alongside maybe running into a Mil Lily that could drop Sange or a Pouilly that could drop Demo Comet. That's two realistically huntable 10*'s next to the possibility of more if you're lucky that run. PSO2 has absolutely nothing that reliable.

And you didn't have to pipe either; it wasn't even an option in BB and it was probably better off that way in regards to the easier rare enemy finds as it made you at least do something productive.

So, SEGA is giving a 100% Tri-Booster to 'compensate' for people that probably lost 10-11* gear? Ha. Haha.

Tri-Boost is just for the maintenance. The compensation for the issue themselves has not been revealed yet.

SEGA has been compensating for the tiniest problems every time so far, you can bet that there will be a proper compensation for this.

I'm expecting 11*'s for everyone, providing some poor shmuck actually did lose 11*'s they weren't using to this bug.

I mean shit if I had a flame visit you can be sure it'd be on my support partner. No freakin' doubts.

Well, most times I'm just in a party with Gigawuts, and we have room, so drop me a line sometime. We'll probably be looking for AQ buddies soon for leveling our BR from 50 --> 60. ;-)
