There's a new 11* unit set that drops from the rare version of the Ice Titan Boss:

http://pso2.swiki.jp/index.php?%E3%82%B5%E3%82%A4%E3%82%AD%E3%83%9B%E3% 82%A6%E3%83%A8%E3%82%AF

Per Piece Stats:
320 S-DEF
282 R-DEF
333 T-DEF
8 Ice Resist
Strike Resist
Shoot Resist
50 HP

Set Effect:
+60 S-ATK
+60 R-ATK
+60 T-ATK
+80 DEX
+25 PP

Dat hype. Everyone is farming it like mad now in anticipation for boosted affix rates next week since you can't trade them.

Is this actually true though? swiki lists it as a drop from ギグル・グンネガム, which is actually the non-rare variant of the boss.

I could be wrong on it.

But the drop rates are low. 30 runs last night - got two 11* Knuckles but no units.

No one in any of my parties got any units either.

Would be nice to get a confirmation on it yes.

I can confirm that a person in one of my runs got the arm unit off the rare variant, but I don't think that excludes it from the normal variant drop table.

This is likely, but you should be doing the breaks regardless, given all his weaknesses are exposed only if you do the break (or wait for his ice bridge move).

So this set is the undisputed best set for every class, unless you really want an additional 60 atk from another set bonus?

why

why

It's not quite that straightforward because it is a 11* (i.e. untradeable). The difference between current FOTM and it isn't -too- significant either, at least for FO, since your main gain from Folly/Heim is going to be 80 hp and 80 Dex with -1 pp loss.

Dunno, +80 hp is still going to get me two-shot against most everything relevant. Maybe the 80 Dex will net you some more damage in the long run, but I can't imagine it being a significant value.

I'd rather keep Folly/Heim so I have the option to trade them away later.

Since the HP isn't too significant you can craft each unit for an additional 9 PP. On top of the set bonus that's pretty huge.

Are you sure it's 25PP set bonus?
Iirc each unit gives 5 PP and the set itself 10PP. Got me confused since I don't rlly know if you considered that.
And the ep3 mb has the same set just less rarity (n less def).

JP wiki links to a mmoloda screenie that clearly shows +25 PP gained when selecting the last piece. The 7* and 11* versions have different stats and set effects.

No, the 7* version only has +10 PP (but 5 pp a piece).

jcart953
Aug 29, 2014, 06:04 PM
I'm looking at the jpwiki now and just to clarify the 7* set gives you a total of 25 pp (5/pp per unit ;set bonus +10Pp=25 total). The 11* set also doesn't include any pp on the individual units as of yet. If that doesn't change then it seems it would net out in terms of PP. I think I may wait more confirmation.

Unless you 'need' the extra defense or if you have infinite meseta, this set isn't worth upgrading to if you already have high slotted Gloam/Gwanman+WT.

RAs and GUs (who even still plays GU lol?) should stick to Tian/Gwanman+WT because the set gives 90 R Atk.

Gloam still works fine.

Also, certain XQ sets are better than this. (90atk)

Just seems like a waste of time+meseta to me. Way too much hype for this set IMO...

White Tail doesn't have Blow or Shoot resists or as much HP.

XQ sets don't have as much PP or resist.

This set is basically all of the perks of every current set combined. Before you had to choose between offense or defense. Now you can have both!

Get more meseta poor person!!

Good luck with that terrible stigma affix rate.

With XQ set(+15pp one), Spirita III and 3pp boss soul on every piece of equipment including weapon you'll be at 143pp. So you'd only need Stigma and +2pp fever on your weapon. And weapons are considerably easier(read cheaper) than units to affix.

Rates from normal are ABYSMAL I'm at 40+ normal kills, most with 250RDB and I haven't gotten anything from him. Some people I know have found weapons off the normal boss, but no units. In fact almost my entire team and friend list has been farming him, but no one has gotten units off the normal one.
Your best and more or less only bet is the rare version, which has given me 2x arm units so far in 5 kills.

Sanguine2009
Aug 31, 2014, 08:33 PM
s rank does not tie into drops at all(it works on a similar concept though), but yes killing mobs beforehand would increase the number of drops somewhat. up to you if rushing the boss or killing things first is better(faster runs vs slightly better odds)

Did you by chance get any of them from the normal titan or are they all from rares? I've actually never heard of anyone who got a unit from the non-rare one.
Been spamming that titan like mad yet just gives me 11* weapons though I break all the parts and S rank. The rare variant barely appears for me.

Personally I'm in the reverse situation. I have both the rear and arm unit, and both dropped from the normal variant. All the rare bosses I've killed have dropped nothing other than that stupid 10* sword. (Shinkoudaijin). I even walked into someone else's rare trigger room (when a trigger is used it affects the whole MPA), and still got nothing.

That said, I have two triggers ready to go for boost week should I not be able to find that leg unit before maint...

the rare variant do give more chance of unit drop.
but its possible for the normal version to drop the unit, since i got the leg piece from it.

Farmed for ~6½ hours nonstop with boosters yesterday, found one arm unit(6th in total). Found like 2x 10* and one 11*.

The only reason to hunt for these units is so you can sell them, but since you can't sell 11* units there's no point. Ultimate will most likely introduce new souls/abilities with far better stat than what we have now.

So go right ahead. transfer those outdated abilities onto new 11/12* units. o3o

Pretty sure as 11* becomes the meta they'll come out with 11* trading passes...

I think I've gone through about 15 rares and have only one unit to show for it, all of them with at least 400% boosts active.

The one I summoned with a rare trigger during the interrupt ranking didn't drop anything, much to my irritation.

My team did a series of triggered bosses yesterday during the rankings - we made a MPA and everyone used one trigger at a time for 12 bosses. Three people got full sets and everyone got 20-30 rares. Not a bad haul.

Alright Game, you win, I give up.

I've been hunting the leg piece for DAYS with boosters to no avail.

I found 1 rear piece, and 3 arm piece (wtf... freakin' troll of a game man...)... I guess Lady Luck's not on my side.

Yeah, I gotta do something more productive with my time.... ORZ...SHM....

Did around 400 runs before inran, 280% boost, 380 for the 30mins after a rare. Boss only, all breaks. About 3 mins per lap solo. Maybe 2 mins of actual boost time lost per lap. Works better in full party alternating runners.

Three full sets, 7 piece from normals, 2 from rare. 5 pc were from before boost week started.

Then 2 more full sets from triggers during that inran.

Rather refreshing to be able to hunt something of worth outside of EX/EM really.

Nothing from IR with boosts on but 2 rare bosses and 10* weapons i didn't want.

So I take it it's best to rush the boss area, rather then kill stuff for drops?

I'm not sure if it's worth bothering with the normal version of the boss, either, since it only takes me a little over a minute to kill it if I don't bother trying to break both feet.

Three more rares today and still no new pieces.

Too bad they aren't releasing the Harukotan advance quest anytime soon, since having a much better chance to encounter a max boosted version of the rare would help a lot...

One person uses their trigger, everyone joins the locked MPA and kills the boss. It shouldn't be that hard to intuit. ._.

Kill mobs for S rank first and stay away from the trigger box. Doing this increases/enhances the crystal's loot. Then go back and summon.

Seems like Gunne doesn't like to give me arms. Got my first set but I keep getting rears and legs. :wacko:

Rare Trigger bosses automatically drop the maximum amount of loot even if it's the first thing you kill.

THE HUNT FOR THE GIANT METAL GIGALYPUFF
AN PEDPIC TALE IN FOUR PARDS

~All day before maintenance~
except for when I fell asleep for 3 hours or watched tv

Wake up with 1/3 units, 5slotted.

Solo hunt a bit, advertise for people to join me and people come and go. Killing mobs on the way to boost crystal drops, ignoring miscellaneous MPA bosses except for Hunar or Gunne, and popping 250% every time a rare gunne comes along.

Eventually I came across my 2nd part of the set and managed to 5slot it in one try, unlike the first unit that failed its first two tries.

Seems pretty fair though, considering the rate of success for the final affix is 49% for what I was making.

~1 hour before maintenance~

Currently have 2/3 units, both 5slotted.

I decide to just keep 250% on all the time for the last hour instead of just when I come across the rare boss.

Servers are dying down. I can get into b11 without premium. But I can't get people to help me hunt gunne so I have to solo him (running FoTe because I can't seem to fight him well as any other class).

I'm ranking along the way and come across a rare boosted gunne gam in A2.

I'm used to soloing the normal one and non-boosted rare one but the lack of being able to stun him as I'm used to puts me at a bit of a panic and the boss kills me with his cheap KO move that's timed perfectly to hit at the end of your mirage escapes.

But I half-doll because this could be my last chance to get the final unit. I manage to kill it, but no rares.

~30 minutes before maintenance~

2/3 units collected.

After non-rare boss after non-rare boss I suddenly come across another boosted rare boss.

He still kills me with his multi-slash dash charge again, but I half-doll again (yay for the campaign reward I got).

But then he kills me with that attack again, even though I have no problem dodging it against any other variation of this boss.

Now I'm really pissed off, that was probably my last chance to get the 3rd unit.

~15 minutes before maintenance~

2/3 units collected.

I decided to throw in friend partners because nobody was online anymore to decide to randomly join me and soloing can suck ass sometimes.

After 2-4 normal bosses again, I get a non-boosted rare boss. Kill it just fine. No rares though.

Then I get another one. Got an 11* fist! But no unit...

And then a random person joins me as I'm about to enter A2, so I remove the friend partner and go on to the boss.

As it turns out, I managed to get 3 rare bosses back to back. We kill it.

8 minutes before maintenance is over, I got the 3rd unit of the set and managed to finish 5slotting it (succeeding on the first try) and grinding it to +10 (as if that were hard).

I see I have 3 minutes left before maintenance so I got look at my bank for random weapons to try and grind to +10 or whatever.

Manage to +5 an 11* zeshuu, should've gone for +10ing my 10* jetboots/dualblades or something. Oh well.

Oh... didn't know that. So I guess we've been wasting time wandering and rain dancing around. ;w;
Thanks for the info.

And such a nice tale there Chdata. That random person must have brought luck. w

Sep 9, 2014, 09:29 PM
So the boss finally decided to drop some units for me. They ended up all being leg units, naturally. Four of them.

At least I got a Fubuki Reisen in the process.

Dragon_Knight
Sep 9, 2014, 10:07 PM
Didn't get any of the units myself, wasted 7 250% boosters and 100% tri boosters over the course of several hours. Most of the people on my team got at least two parts of the set though so...go them.

I tried farming the boss during the IR. Got a few weapons instead.
Gave up.

Few days later, some JP friends invited me to a few Rare Enemy Trigger runs.
Got one of the units.

Before maintenance, we did some Mesetan Shooter to get a few more Rare Enemy Triggers.
Got the rest of the pieces. A JP friend got the entire set too.

I used +250% tickets and lucky rise units.
My non-JP friend didn't get any units despite using +250% and +100%.
Haven't seen any units drop from the non-rare version of the boss.

Rakurai
Sep 10, 2014, 02:09 AM
I hope the spawn rate on the rare version of the boss will be decent in the new EQ.

Even with the 150% rare enemy boost, the appearance rate was terrible for me.

Alandsmj
Sep 10, 2014, 02:28 AM
During the boost period:
At least 100 rare versions. 250% all the time.
10 rare boost.
Still no leg unit.

NoiseHERO
Sep 10, 2014, 02:35 AM
Got the back unit from non-rare.

Too lazy to search thread, PSOW is a chatroom anyway so; NONE of the pieces require the boss to be rare right?

I didn't even get any of my pieces until the day before maintenance and it was in the order of: Arm, Arm, Arm (was getting annoyed and demotivated at the same time), Rear, Rear.

I don't really want to know how many kills it's going to take for a leg. Granted all of my pieces came from the rare boss.

The non-rare version just has a much crappier drop rate.
