Just started a HUCast named 'Blodia', and he kicks a whole truckload more ass than my FOnewman did at level 23. Of course, I'm used to playing on V-Hard, so the monsters seem to be moving in slow motion.

He uses a Drain Gigush (+11) most of the time, with a Drain Lockgun and Storm Knife for backup. The Lockgun has worked surprisingly well, and I've used it a lot more than I had expected recently.

Doing fine thanks. Would do better if some people would just play the game and stop dissing the Hucast. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_smile.gif

Level: 100 Hucast
I also have a Racaseal and a Fomarl, but so far, I love my Hucast the best. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_razz.gif
Favorite weapons: Swords/Long Swords and Guns w/ good Bonuses. Favorite sword right now is a Last Survivor (bonus to hp and special steals hp). Favorite long sword right now is the Soul Eater (no bonuses, but looks cool). Favorite gun is the Varista (50% bonus).

I have a lv 59 HUcast.
Name: Alcatraz
ID: yellowboze

Weapon o choice: GAE BOLG +30% to native
+35% to A. beast
+50% to machine
VARISTA +45% to Dark
HUcast's are unstoppable.
There's been a few times
in Endless Nightmare #3
where I was the only one
left standing at the end
and had to revive everyone.
Simply unstoppable.

Maybe I'll run into one of
you out there. I don't stay
in one ship, I just kinda
wander around.

I love my Racast ?Boris?! Which is quickly approaching Level 95. By this point, ?Boris? has beaten all difficulty settings on PSO, with ease. Some of the Rares I have found are Flame Visit, Brave Knuckle, and Photon Claws. With some skillful trading I have acquired better goodies like: Egg Blaster +75, Spread Needle, P-Arm, Inferno Cannon, Stag Cutlery, Delsaber Buster, S/M., and Twin Blades.

i'm a lv.100 HUcast "Zantetsu".

my favorite weapon still has to be my trusty h&s25 justice. it seems like a puny mechgun but...i can take out almost ANY enemy after 1 or 2 3-hit combos (strong-strong-strong).
this is especially useful thanks to my god/battle.

I love my HUcast.

When I play online, I do more damage than nearly everyone I play with, even those at much higher levels. Consequently, I get more finishing blows on enemies, and level up faster.

I use mostly a Gae Bolg, a Gladius, and a Varista. If I ever find a Vjaya with good bonuses, I'll be set for life.

I beat Falzy on Hard at level 39. It was NOT easy. I bet It took me 20 tries, & 2 and a half hours.

-----Spasm's HUcast vs Dark Falz strategy guide-----

Of course, set a telepipe before warping to Falzy's room.

Make sure you have plenty of ELT resistance. Equip some Resist/Saint if at all possible.

Stuff your pockets FULL of all the mates, except maybe Mono's. Tons of Scape Dolls too.

Take no money into the ruins with you (duh).

Warp into Falz's picnic land, and litter the ground with as many mates as you can, in packs of 5. Empty your pockets of all Scape dolls too. The ground should be a sea of green items.

Un-equip your weapon. Now, let Falz kill you. D-E-D!

Restart on Pioneer 2, grab as many Mates as you can again.

When you go back down to picnic land, notice that all the Mates and Scape Dolls you dropped last time around are still present.

Again, drop your Mates in packs of 5, and again, let Falz kill you. This should be the last time we'll grab more Mates on Pioneer 2.

When we get back down to Falz, keep the mates you just bought on you, equip your favorite gun, and activate Falz.

As soon as the spike field appears, make a b-line for the edge of the level directly ahead. You should only have to veer once to get there. Flip around and start blasting the purple spikes. You should be relatively safe here, as the spikes can not sneak up behind you. A powerful attack should down a spike in 1 hit. You need to destroy 9 of them or so.

When Falzy appears, switch to a partisan or breaker type weapon, and head for the head closest to the center of the map. Use your weapon to attack his face, and the spikes he's spitting out at the same time. If you're successful, it should be just you and him when he's finished, no spikes. Now's a good time to pick up your Scape Dolls (we really didn't want to waste them in the spike field). This is also about the time he starts using Grants on you. If your mates get down to 5 or lower, run over and pick up another 5-pack. Smack him some more when he tries to spit out more spikes, and soon enough, you'll come to phase 2.

This is Falz' easiest form, IMO. Switch to your most powerful weapon against a single dark enemy, and run straight for the heart. Whack on him like there's no tomorrow. When he lifts up to pounce on you, don't worry, you're an android, this attack does not even affect you. Don't bother running from Grants either, it's a no-dodger. Just keep whackin. Make sure you keep your mates stocked up, from your stockpile on the ground.

When he enters his 3rd form, prepare for a fight to the death. I bet your Mate reserves are getting low by now, and they're about to get a lot lower.

Switch to your best gun vs Dark, and let loose a volley. Don't worry about trying to time when he's shimmering (invincible) or not, just keep him in your sites. Pretty soon he'll raise way above you for his projectile attack. Run! Run straight down the middle of the ring and don't stop till his projectiles pass harmlessly behind you. Now it's time to get hit by Grants (oof!). This attack left me with 3 health at lvl 39, you should fare quite a bit better. Heal immediately! Why? Cause you're about to get slashed (ack!)! This attack doesn't do nearly as much damage, but can easily finish you off after Grants if you didn't heal. Take aim and fire again. Repeat the whole process until he's toast! The only variation you're likely to get in this pattern is if he decides to suck on your soul a little bit. Don't attack, of course.

That's how I rocked him well earlier than I should have attempted too.

Happy hunting.

Level 93 HUcast. I have three super rares I have found on my own and I am Damn proud. Anyway this game is pretty much over for me. With these codes realsed a lot of people are starting to get on my nerves. I might play online occasionaly but not as much. Untill Sega starts banning them, Im going play Shenmue again. Or maybe just take a nap.

Lv. 87, YELLOWBOoZE. I'm partial to my Gae Bolg +9 (45% A.Beast), Brionac +9 (35% Dark), or one of my junky mech-guns (though for Falz I'll whip out the 30% dark Varista -- yeah yeah, I find crap for items, okay? haha). Still haven't beaten the game in Very Hard offline (I am just lazy). As for rares, I think my rarest find thus far was a Custom Barrier v00. I'm telling you, I don't find anything... even in groups (cuz of bad luck or item hoarders).

It's time for us androids to rise up and be counted (or something)... I seriously think I'm gonna follow through on the proposed android gathering...

Well don't we have a seciton of bad asses here! Hucasts rule. I must say, I did try a RAcast.. and I was just not impressed as much.
I love being the strong front runner android, I love running into the thick of it. After all, it seems we we're made for front line attacks.
I have yet to find any super rares.. and that Dark Falz guide is going to help when I tackle him tonight on hard! Then I might finding some rares and super rares besides the DB's and Varista, so thanks for that!!
Oh, and I'm section ID Whitill.. and I haven't really seen any posts where this has been brought up in relation to rares? If anyone else out there is a Hucast with ID Whitill, give us an update http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_smile.gif
But it does seem we all have it together.. I must agree that the Hucast is my ultimate character.. but then you have to ask questions like Power vs Magic aswell.. in my book I prefer good old fashion stompings http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_wink.gif

Level 40 w/ a Stag and God Power? Damn. All I find are rare 10-star monomates and the occasional ever-elusive 11-star telepipe.

I just thought of an idea for a PSO mini-game that works better with androids than other classes. You'd be surprised how easy it is to create an identical looking android (Especially the HUcasts since there are quite a few of them and there are only a few color costumes that seem to be really popular, I never see a purple HUcast for some reason. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_biggrin.gif) and I've found 2 twins for my HUcast already online. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_smile.gif

Weeelll, anyways the theory is kinda like that Chrono Trigger Millenium Carnival mini-game where they have three identical looking soldiers with different names stand next to each other, then get shuffled and you have to discern which one was which. Think this idea would float? Hmm... one day I need to write down all the PSO mini-games I can think of. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_smile.gif
