Update Monster Rebalancing?

[Neith]

I've noticed on PSUpedia that this update 'rebalanced all monsters and bosses of lv20+'.

Just wondering if anyone has any details on this (perhaps JP PSU players?). I did Mad Creatures S just now, and didn't really noticed much of a difference, except maybe mob HP is lower now?

Any details would be appreciated.

Fixed.

i hope they lower the HP of the worms as well, and gaozorans. those 2 are the only enemies that I consider dangerous. and if they did update the enemies, I'm sure they made Volfus stronger cuz I never remember these guys being a threat in the slightest bit until now, although they still rank relatively low when compared to other monsters in terms of dangerousness.

I've been looking into it, so far it seems that all enemies past at least lv 30 have slightly lower HP (though around 400 less base HP at lv 55).

Alright, thanks Sounomi- I found I can solo LL S really easily now, so a HP reduction seems very likely.

This is a good thing for Ranger types who like to solo, most of us can manage higher rank missions pretty well but the biggest problem is simply running out of bullets. Annoying.

multiple A rank guns and photonchargecosmo. I run with a guy that stocks a full set, and he never runs out of bullets, and his PP recharge costs are known up front. On the 360, these can be bought from player shops for about 1.5-2.5K

Back on topic: I did DeRagan on A, and didn't really notice a big difference in HP, so I'll agree with with slight HP reduction thing.

Anyone go fight some bugs/worms?

I noticed that level 4 Burn does 1337 damage to Tengohgs on Holy Ground S...it definitely didn't do that before...not sure if that's an increase or a decrease though.

I run a full set of guns/wands too, but it's very easy to run out. And I'm not made of haxeta (that or I'm just really conservative) so I tend to be wary about item costs. I guess my point is, PP is never a problem for my Fortefighter but it tends to be a pain for my Guntecher.

I concour with hp lowering. Monsters in Lab S2 do not have much more hp then the used to in S pre 'balancing'. I can't tell if other stats have been lowered.

That would be a decrease. One of about 4.5k HP or so.
