Heres the link to the total and everything we can unlock: http://pso2.jp/players/event/kyoutou2014/webpanel/

So, 20 panels to unlock, last years was 14 and we needed 4.5million points total (located here: http://pso2.jp/players/event/1st_anniversary/webpanel/).

Those 150% boosts are gonna be awesome, Rare drop excluding (cus stuff doesnt drop really).

If we make it to the grind/affix boosting, that'll be the icing on the cake. I wonder how many points it'd take, tho?

We have till what...March 5th to get them all it says?

Should be pretty easy.

Hey, maybe I'll bother to Lv. 3 all of my weapons if we manage that grind boost again. A shame I'd have to wait two months until then but I'm perfectly fine with that given how much I despise grinding. With everyone having at least two characters up to spec though I imagine that this will build up quite fast, hopefully.

Yep, it runs till march 5th. However the limiting factor will be accessibility of the points (Ie, matterboard nodes on the card) and just the physical amount of characters available to add points. If the same kind of unlock system is in place as last years. We'll need like 8.5 million points to reach the final panel

Gives me a reason to put the placebo tris/rdr boosts in storage to work, while beating the tar out of more quartz dragons.

Didn't people buy like a lot of characters for last years?

Ce'Nedra
Jan 22, 2014, 04:43 AM
So pretty much same shit as last year with more weapon camo filler slots to make it "harder" to reach the final Panel. Oh and I guess the boost is now 150% instead of 100%...

What I do wonder is what the Crafting is in the 2nd panel. Is it a new room deco that boosts something or is it just a general boost to crafting in some form?

Gardios
Jan 22, 2014, 04:47 AM
Didn't they give us a new bingo card last year so we could still reach the goal?

Horo The Wise Wolf
Jan 22, 2014, 06:17 AM
So there is a Matter board spot in the reverse side.

Looks like I am not completing it.

Ce'Nedra
Jan 22, 2014, 06:24 AM
Awesome. Which MB is it? Guess I can only 100% clear it on 1 char then unless it is let say MB2 or 3 lol.

Horo The Wise Wolf
Jan 22, 2014, 06:37 AM
Probably MB 50 or something. Two involve Quna.

"MB 50"

what ._.

Jan 22, 2014, 07:07 AM
I need to that affix boost. Planning on opening a 3rd slot on my units and guns and then affixing Spirita 3.

Dnd
Jan 22, 2014, 07:17 AM
Interesting to note, the 2nd panel requires 200k points to unlock, down from 250k last year

Ce'Nedra
Jan 22, 2014, 07:19 AM
Probably MB 50 or something. Two involve Quna.

Quna is "only" MB9 or MB10. Forgot which exact.

Maronji
Jan 22, 2014, 08:16 AM
Quna is "only" MB9 or MB10. Forgot which exact.

In fact, she's actually involved in both of those matter boards.

So either way, you're right.

Ce'Nedra
Jan 22, 2014, 08:18 AM
Then let's safely assume you need MB10 to be safe for getting 100% MB. I would grind MBs on alt chars if the story chapter's weren't so boring to play through ;3

MetalDude
Jan 22, 2014, 12:09 PM
That's not too terrible, but things really start to drag on (and get horribly unrewarding compared to 5) at 6 and 7 so I'm not even really sure if I'll get my alt up to spec.

Dnd
Jan 28, 2014, 01:17 AM
Given the required amount of points needed to unlock stuff, im willing to bet it'll be precisely the same as last year for the grind (4million) and affix (4.5million) boosts.

panel 12 this year is 1.8 million, we are currently just over 1.7 million, panel 12 last year was 3.6 million for reference

PSchiZ
Jan 28, 2014, 10:53 AM
You need to complete the story part of MB11 to receive Quna's partner card
then, you have to S-rank Ruins VH+ with just Quna in the party to get that bingo spot

RadiantLegend
Jan 28, 2014, 01:15 PM
Never did MB11 and I have her card.

KazukiQZ
Jan 28, 2014, 03:35 PM
MB11 is ARKS Tournament stuff, where you can get Patty and Tea Partner Card.

I think he mean MB10, since that's Episode 1 last chapter.

Jan 28, 2014, 06:16 PM
do you have to be on mb10 to get the rewards?

gigawuts
Jan 28, 2014, 06:26 PM
We got the Chained Wire.

Regardless of whatever else we do or don't get this is now a success.

KazukiQZ
Jan 28, 2014, 07:09 PM
do you have to be on mb10 to get the rewards?
Sadly, yes. But, the CO from Quna may come from MB9 because both MB involves lots of Quna.

Shinamori
Jan 28, 2014, 07:11 PM
I wonder if we'll get 1 per character or 1 per account.

gigawuts
Jan 28, 2014, 07:12 PM
Last time it was per character. I remember getting stuff before ep 2, creating a character, then signing in to more rewards on that character.

Shinamori
Jan 28, 2014, 07:15 PM
Hmm. Guess I better work on getting to at least MB 10 on my 2nd character.

dem grind/affix boost, wel. . . mainly just the affix boost.

the 10% affix event make an affixing process that usually need 20% booster to 100% the result become easier and cheaper with it, since it only need 10% booster at that point

...
inb4 all greedy seller raise 10% affix booster price to 20% level :wacko:

Shinamori
Jan 29, 2014, 01:06 AM
Nah, last time, 10% boosters was like 130k~160k if I recall.

WildarmsRE5
Jan 29, 2014, 01:09 AM
Nah, last time 20% boosters was like 800k

Shinamori
Jan 29, 2014, 02:42 AM
No, I clearly remember 10% boosters being so greater than 200k, now, 10% grind boosters on the other hand....

No, you get the rewards for bingo event anyway. Its just if you want to receive the final reward from the bingo card itself, you have to complete it (Ie, do the MB10 squares)

Yup, only for swords. It even says it (ソード): http://pso2.jp/players/event/kyoutou2014/webpanel/panel/prize_06.png

This one on the other hand is going to be hilarious http://pso2.jp/players/event/kyoutou2014/webpanel/panel/prize_09.png
Sword, partisan, double saber, rod, and wand.

Dnd
Feb 12, 2014, 10:00 PM
16th panel unlocked, 17th requires 3,600,000 points. Which leads me to believe the affix boost will require 5.5million points (18th = 4,200,000, 19th = 4,800,000, 20th = 5,500,000)

3 weeks to go till it ends aswell ;~;

Shinamori
Feb 12, 2014, 10:41 PM
We're gonna get it. If i recall, this happened last time. Everyone just spammed like the last week.

Im doubtful. The only way we get it is if people make alts, alts = more BINGO cards = easy points because really, unlocking MB's and running story quests for bingo, who has the time?

Shinamori
Feb 15, 2014, 06:51 AM
The JP? They did it last time. The only issue is the Fire Swirl. We're 8k away from the 150% rare enemy Boost.

Feb 15, 2014, 12:28 PM
SEGA never dropped the requirements last time, I'm not sure what you're talking about. It was always 4,500,000 bingos to get the +10% affix boost last event.

And yes, I believe the entire point of this event is so that people make new characters for extra bingos. It's probably the entire reason we're never going to get a legitimate max attack even here, even if they have been a PS Staple in the past.

Omega-z
Feb 15, 2014, 12:34 PM
@Z-0 - They did after the second week there's even a page for it because the requirement was to high for the JP with the first row.

Update: I took out the last post since I didn't clear my cashe to see the update on the page. But it could still be 6 mil possible, Alts are a must and they've been doing a lot of campaigns for new players lately too.

I ran FC for visbolt, but from what I was told, you can't get visbolt by yourself.

Dnd
Feb 15, 2014, 10:32 PM

I'm willing to bet this is the case, I spend alot of time in FC killing off time yet I never spawn a visbolt till I get someone else joining me.

I imagine the reason why the total isn't sky-rocketing at the moment is people holding their alts/2nd alts/3rd alts with rare drop boosts just for boosted elders..

Shinamori
Feb 15, 2014, 10:49 PM
Yeah, probably. I'm not sure if the Valentine Bingo counts though.

Grab another human, whether that be a friend or yourself on another account, and just run area 1 of the Vahda Soma Arks Quest. You'll get it pretty quickly there.

You know what sucks about the reverse side of the Valentine Bingo? Lottie. Gotta do like 20 COs to unlock your partner card CO....

IndigoNovember
Feb 20, 2014, 01:01 PM
Do AQs alongside the Coast (any infected monster) and Seabed ones.

Saffran
Feb 22, 2014, 05:44 PM
I dunno, 4.8millions are still only 100k characters bothering to do the bingo. It's fast and easy to do, too.
Sure, they expect you to do like Lottie's COs and Story Quests and all, but if after 3000 hours played you couldn't bother doing those, you probably should play something else, you know what I mean?
Of course, the situation is tedious when you have 8 characters (it would be tedious with 3 characters already) but come on, on your main? You can't say you couldn't find the time to play story quests in 2 years on your main character...

Anyway, on the reverse side, you might have trouble with the heat wave effect. I would advise a run of the Volcano EQ or AD quests.
Nice headsup for the Varda Soma quest for Vizbolt - I've been running volcano for 10 days and couldn't get a single spawn. Tried Varda Soma and got it within 5 minutes (second run through the first area, really).

Shinamori
Feb 24, 2014, 07:52 AM
I think we'll just get the 10% grind boost and that's it.
We're pretty much at 4.7mil with another 100k to go. So maybe by maintenance will have 4.8mil.

gigawuts
Feb 24, 2014, 09:05 AM
I wouldn't be surprised if sega reveals the affix boost requires 5m on the mark, and we miraculously make it at the last few hours with something like 5,001,348 or some shit.

http://pso2.jp/players/event/kyoutou2014/webpanel/

Anyway, when I last looked about 10 hours ago the counter was at 4.65m, so I'm fairly certain it's a non-issue. There's no way JPs are swooping in by the tens of thousands to get that many bingo scores. Sega's doing this.

Thanks for the correction.

Feb 24, 2014, 09:40 AM
My team and I were having this discussion the other day. If we don't make it, I can see it playing out one of 3 ways. They just say "You lose! You get nothing!", they just give it to us anyway, or they just give us 5% out of pity. You can probably take #2 off the table though.

Saffran
Feb 24, 2014, 10:33 AM
Again, even 5.5 millions are virtually nothing. If people were actually trying to get the panels, we'd be over 40 millions by now. We still have 10 days to go. I'm pretty sure we'll be fine.

Coatl
Feb 24, 2014, 10:45 AM
Well don't we have until march 5th? That's plenty of time to reach the affix boost. I can't really do much more.. I've done the entire bingo on two chars and the entire bingo minus the ones that require matterboards on two other chars.

Pull your weight guys!

Saffran
Feb 24, 2014, 11:13 AM
Just for the record, we did 4000 points this last hour. I'm not too sure how to interpret it (Lv70 Fakz being one of the requirements...)

Taiga > yeah, but you run 8 characters, surely that would get on your nerves after a while. You don't need to contribute all 48 points for all your characters...

TaigaUC
Feb 24, 2014, 01:19 PM
Thanks. It does get tiring. Especially the matterboard stuff. That shit is terribly boring.
I haven't been doing the last few bingos. There's always SEGA screwing up if I need tri-boosts.
I thought people would bite my head off and expect me to have contributed as much as possible.

I'd really like to know if we'd still have progress had nobody contributed at all.

The last webpanel event we had was during summer so other than jobs, people had pretty much had lots of free time to work on bingo. Everyone's (or almost everyone ) back in school.

Saffran
Feb 24, 2014, 08:31 PM
I dunno, to me things like the map messages are basic "have to know" stuff. It amazes me that, what, 2 years into the game? Some people post screenshots and you can see on their maps that they haven't checked a single message. In 2 years! Like, are you playing the game? Really??

Anyway, matterboard and COs are not a piece of cake on one char, I can't begin to imagine what it is on so many chars...

I cleared several bingo cards today. Helped my friend clear some of theirs too.

I did it because I wasted tons of EXPcubes trying to get a shop ticket (still no luck on that account) and needed to make up for it.

Sega screwed you so you let Sega screw you some more to make up for it?

I don't follow this logic.

Then again, that's what the entire PS community has done for years, so I guess it's just standard fare.

Reiketsu
Feb 25, 2014, 08:52 AM
I cleared the first three bingo cards on two of my characters. Well, on one of them, the other is still missing the fucking visbolt. I'm glad I finally got it once after an entire week of running MPAs and pair runs.
Got two bingos on the 4th card, but won't bother with that any further. It's a huge pile of shit.

Oh good, it's not wildly out of expectations. The whole last row is 600k more than the last.

We've got a whole week to do bingo, people. Expect farm parties this weekend.

Just sucks how much is locked behind MBs on the reverse. Yeah, it's stuff like MB1-3, but that gets annoying on alts real fast.

One week for 600k.

600k for the opportunity of fail-proof ability 3 affixes, since we all know that shit fails at least half the fucking time at 90%.

Z-0
Feb 25, 2014, 07:11 PM
10% affix boost does much, much more than help Ability. Such that you should be attempting to get 10% boost for other things than ability, as those are much more important.

gigawuts
Feb 25, 2014, 07:58 PM
Yes, absolutely.

100% chance to expand to 4 slots? Yes please. 100% chance to expand to 5 slots because of the boost to expanding success rates? I might just do it. God knows I have the cubes to burn.

And I should be looking into Shock IV...

It works out, if its a 10% boost like people have said/rumoured you can even expand to 6 slots at 100% w/30% booster + boost week if they are 100% to start with

The odds I'm looking at should be about 100/100/100/86 with the first try, then 100/100/100/65, which I predict will fail 5 times in a row. Then I use the fodders I bought 2 months ago and a 10% booster to 100/100/100/100 my way to victory!

10% affix boost does much, much more than help Ability. Such that you should be attempting to get 10% boost for other things than ability, as those are much more important.

As soon as I find the fodder, and funds to make my wildest affixing dreams come true, I'd consider it.

As is, I can't even find 4s quartz soul/power3/stamina3 units under 10 mil.

I have over 200 excubes stashed at this point. Aside from XQs, which I find tiresome to run after not very long, I honestly can't think of any use for them but 30% affix boosters.

Even if I fail all 6 potential attempts I'll come out fairly happy, because then I get to brag about failing 180 excubes worth of slot expansions.

It works out, if its a 10% boost like people have said/rumoured you can even expand to 6 slots at 100% w/30% booster + boost week if they are 100% to start with

Those will be 95% with boost/change + 30%. 50 -> 55 + 10 -> 65 + 30 -> 95.

Assuming you have sufficient storage space, watch the power1 3s and 4s market. Expand the p1 3s to 4s during boost/change. Then make your power3/stamina3/x/x + (soul x 2) or power3/x/x/x + (soul x 2) and stamina3/x/x/x + (soul x 2). Costs half that price to make them right now if you buy up the lower priced ones (especially after EQs when people put up cougar 4s soul for 1k sometimes that has power1/spirita1 too l0l). Hard to say what it will be during boost when stat1 supply goes out the airlock.

Yeah, only ->4s is 100% with +10% event and +30% booster.

The rates are increased to 110%, not by +10%.

So 7->8s is 33% instead of 30%, and 0->1s is 88% instead of 80%.


As for this event that's definitely happing, I'm hoping to combine some 4s soul+stat fodder and use them to boost a bunch of 60%->100% with just a single Stat3 in the mix.

That and some good old fashioned 100% 3s with +10% boosters instead of +20%. It's so cheap, easy, and effective!

Apparently my chances of 2 out of 3 90% rolls failing were 2.7%, and it has happened to me over a half dozen times, and I rarely affix because of BS like that.

Pretty much the reason why I never affix ability 3 outside of these boosts.

@UnLucky - I'm wondering why your saying its just a +110% and not a a flat +10%. Since that's not how it was for me last time, It was a a flat +10%. Also it should be 100% for 7s If the re-work to extra slots is +10% also (which is listed for Mar. 5th Maintenance). So 50 +10 = 60 +10 = 70 +30 = 100%.


add-on: @UnLucky or was it the overall rate for Success for all 5s together for that 110% figure?

@UnLucky - you can ignore my mistake.

milranduil
Feb 26, 2014, 08:19 PM
The rework is boosting expansion rates by 10% of the original rate. The boost is a flat 10% to all affixes expansion/soul/stats/everything. That being said, only up to 5s is 100% with a 30% affix booster during the boost once the rework is applied.

50% base is for 5->6s btw, not 6s->7s.

Omega-z
Feb 26, 2014, 08:29 PM
@adios - I thought they where 5% less each level, But it seems to jump after 4s thats lame. Also Thank You adios.

edit: Oh, checking the wiki again 6s can be 100%, with 3 items its 50% then with the reward +10%/rework +10%/booster +30% it should be 100% not 95%.

milranduil
Feb 26, 2014, 08:42 PM

What really? ........Sega:disapprove:. @adios - that +10% more from original rate sounds like 50% plus 10% tho not 110% or 1.1% boost to the stats. But "IF" Sega is really going to do that what are they thinking?

Edit: Oh, do you have the link to that info....maybe or is it a rumor?

Honestly going above 4-5 is stupid. You would pay too much money for what you get.

Basic Glass Cannon affix being (Using S-att)

Quartz / Power III / Ability III / Boost

Quartz / Power III / Ability III / (Spirita III / Mutation I) / Boost

Other than expanding they don't cost too much more. However 6s souls start to crest to 1mill a piece for maybe more HP.

2 things:
-The slot expansion rates are 110% for 3s->4s, but may change in other situations.
-We only got 70k in the last 24h...

Edit:
I forgot the most important thing about slot expansion, expanding 0s to 1s will be 100%. (well, no penalty, to be more precise)

Omega-z
Feb 27, 2014, 01:32 PM
Well that's the thing about the slot expansion boost, Where is this 110%/1.1% multiplier coming from in the first place since I doubt anyone really knows for sure other then Sega. Was it misinterpreted or something, since every other bonus to it is additive. Also it was rumored that the event boost could of been 110% too back during the 1st Anniversary event. So, I'm going to wait and see what's going to happen. They could troll us by changing everything multiplicative (since Sega is going overboard with it) instead of additive means all the boosts....etc. . There would be very little change at all if it was the 110%. For event's getting 5s if we get the reward, for boost weeks 4s other than that nothing different unless getting a little bit luckier with 1s~3s normally.

@Saffran - 1s are not 100% with that 110% boost there 80% to 88% then so even with a 10% items (If they don't change that too) boost is 98%, which to the RNG god you lose. otherwise "IF" it's not that 110% and was actually the +10% to the base it would be 90% and 100% with the 10% item.

Saffran
Feb 27, 2014, 01:46 PM

gigawuts
Feb 27, 2014, 02:07 PM
They could also turn affixing into a progress bar sort of deal. Let us downgrade for a 100% chance too. One Power 3 in the mix for like 30%? Just choose Power 2 for 100%.

Souls should really be boosting more than they are, though. Everything should be boosting a status effect and at least one atk type. I'd love to see other boosts, like Couger boosting Ability 3.

But that would require more attention to the system.

Omega-z
Feb 27, 2014, 02:10 PM
@UnLucky - yeah that's a problem too. With not being able to use a 4s on a 2s or vise-verse...etc. and yeah the pricing needs to be reduced also. But for % having two +30% boosters at 8s be would 93% and 100% during event rewards if they did make this change. Maybe in 6 years perhaps?


Edit: Oh A thought, What if the 110% can be compounded with the boosts? so 66% with +30% be 99% instead of 96%....would this be possible perhaps or not?


Update: Since this is still the last post and didn't want to double post.....But the amount is 498 points after their Friday......If they don't do something in the next two days pretty much kiss your +10% Affixing good bye until next time.

Actually it depends. If you had more than one character at the time Episode 2 started, you were given an extra character slot with which you could make a new character for free only once. If you were to delete all your characters you'd only be able to re-roll one character for free, from the second character on you'd have to pay for the slot again.

On the other hand, if you had only one character at the time Episode 2 started, or you created your account after Episode 2, you have two slots you can re-roll as many times as you like for free.

wow, 5% on the 12th too ......hmm. The event rewards are usually 2 weeks so "IF" we get it that would be another 5% during the last week to the 10% boost period. So, we have the rest of today and tomorrow and a little bit in between those times left to make that 200K.
The event rewards will last 1 week, from March 12 to March 19.

Yes, but at this point it's a pointless thing to do since they implemented the 24 hour character deletion cooldown. It'd be nice if you could bypass it by selecting to delete it again during the cooldown period and going "yes, I'm not a retard, I actually want to delete this character".

AIDA, the guy who runs the patch you probably use, did this to his character FYI.

Yes, but he also had a supposed UI bug where it displayed a different character in the background so everything on his screen indicated he was deleting the correct character.

The UI bug is real. I had once deleted the wrong character when the screen was showing me the character I wanted deleted. Though this was on my alt account, so it was of little significance to me. ^^

I rounded up when I made this post, it was 5.24something million.

Now it's 5.255 million.

No, we did not get 6-10k bingos in the last hour.

I find that a bit more plausible, but at 1 AM on a monday night? Maybe. It's way more plausible than 16k during tower defense, though.

I know, I was just clarifying the circumstances. It wasn't even stupidity, it was an outright UI bug that led to it happening - it wasn't even his fault, just shoddy and lazy QA.

Look at the times closely.

So, yeah, basically proof that they're finagling the numbers, hoping no one will notice.

Like I said, they're going to do everything they can to make sure we get all the rewards. Hell, even if we don't unlock the last panel, they'll probably still just give it to us.

Oh, I wasn't necessarily calling AIDA stupid either (he's obviously not). I was more implying that I tend to regard the feature as SEGA protecting us from themselves rather than an idiot test.

I just want a good ol' Max Attack event for once. But because Sega's so damn scared of scripters autokilling shit to fudge the numbers, we just get endless matterboard-scramble bingo events instead.

...Doesn't hold up much weight when Sega themselves mess with the counters anyway.

Don't you need to complete her CO "secret training" in order to advance in the matterboard so that she can go hunter? How'd you get in that predicament.

there is a non mandatory matter board tablet in one of the earlier boards you need to complete to unlock some of her COs, i think its in the 3rd or so MB(which ever one is desert). complete that then do the CO that appears to unlock that CO

Nope, completely optional. She class changes to hunter as of episode 2, regardless of how many of her co's you've done.


AIDA, the guy who runs the patch you probably use, did this to his character FYI.

I am aware of this, though I've never used an english patch. Doesn't make it any less stupid to not have an option to bypass the deletion timer if you're actually certain you want to delete that character and didn't select the wrong one to delete by mistake/glitch/whatever (iirc aida also gave both characters the same name, so graphic delay bug or not it's still partly his own fault in the first place, but lets not digress).
