How you kill the monster has no affect on the rare drops, no matter how many times you make your character circle around it or punch it unarmed.

The only really known drop rate influencer is the 1304+ mags, which only seem to affect PSO+ and the XBox... not certain which is necessarily true or not, but as long as you stay off the 1304+ mags, you're safe, and there's no reason for a change in drop rates except for your personal luck (not the LCK stat, just old fashioned good luck).

Well, there really isn't a BEST character, just different strengths and weaknesses. Generally speaking, the newmans are better for strictly spellcasting, while the humans allow for more experimentation with other play styles.

Hmm, best force... This has been done a million times and.. it just depends on your playstyle and what you want out of your force. I personally go for FOmarl because she is awsome at supporting with her boosts in range, and awsome at melee. So... that's my story... But, I have played as all forces, all are good, just FOmarl fits my groove better than any of the others...

As with so much in PSO, it's all a matter of opinion - I prefer Fomarls, for their double range with S/D and Resta/Anti, and also their higher HP, but if you ask anyone with a different opinion, they will no doubt be able to give at least one good comment on their preference. To each to his own
