Japanese PC/PS2 update for 02.07

[EspioKaos]

http://phantasystaruniverse.jp/news/wis/?mode=view&id=607

New party mission
"Her Hero is a Thief" (C-S) is Parum's first party mission. Your client, Rol Medoc, sends you out to find various ingredients for her ailing grandfather.

New recruitment mission
"Holtes Branch Reserves" will be opened to help those looking for a party for this mission find the best possible teammates.

New items
Numerous new weapons will be added to the game.

Renumeration for recent bugs
Last week's update inadvertently introduced a number of weapon glitches which affected weapon performance and visuals. (One such was the W'gangac appearing as an unreleased 13-star wand called Granahodrac.) Either way, to make up for the problems, two weeks of superholy Photon Fortune will be implemented starting with this update, and running until February 21.

EDIT: I went straight for the new content when I first posted this and skipped right over the bug fix/Photon Fortune thing. Oops!

EDIT#2: Granahodrac is a 13-star wand, not 15-star. My mistake again! <_<

EDIT#3: I can't count.

Arigatou. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif
This looks pretty awesome.

[Freshellent]

Oh SNAP.

Now that's something. Good stuff.

[EspioKaos]

Douitashimashite!

Also, I just added in a fourth section to the update dealing with a three week period of superholy Photon Fortune for the Japanese servers. (When I originally posted, I went straight for the new stuff and just skipped over the renumeration deal.) Anyway, this is to make up for some recent bugs that came with some new weapons that were added with last week's update. One such bug was the W'gangac appearing as an unreleased 15-star wand called Granahodrac. From what I understand, there were many more issues than this, hence the renumeration.

You should give everyone on PSOW 3 weeks of 3* luck to make up for that mistake.

[Katy]

I'm curious to what new weapons and items this update it referring to and what enemies. PSUpedia doesn't have this mission yet. And see Sega's new fix on everything is just hand out 3 luck to everyone.

Hmm, was that the wand that had 999 TP at 10 grinds? If so, then I know there will be tons of pissed off people when their new ultra wand is now useless.

>> that one is 13* kubara

Correct, that wand is 1 of the problem weapon, 1 of the name on the list.

I'll be updating our article on this mission once it's released. Stay tuned to this article (http://psupedia.info/Her_Hero_Is_a_Thief) to check for updates. Of course, don't expect much more until Thursday or Friday. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

[Keiko_Seisha]

Awww.. So Prestoc isn't gonna be as awesome as it seemed and was a bug. Oh well.

[darkante]

Lol 3 weeks of super holy fortune...

ST solution to every screw up ST does..

Might as well make it infinite and take away fortune teller lady.
Seeing how they make screw ups every so often.

[buzyb77]

odd thing I noticed is No V-Day Lobby...up should it not be here as Feb 14 is like net week...

[Inazuma]

its only 2 weeks of max luck. feb 7 - 21

[EspioKaos]

Guess I can't count. <_<;

Thanks for the correction; it's been fixed in the initial post. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

LOL.

ST's insurmountable stupidity strikes again. It really is just one thing after another. If they keep making up for problems with 3* luck, 1/2* luck will never see the light of day.

[Kylie]

Bout time Parum got its party mission.

Honestly, I don't think the players can see much of anything either with all that bright yellow flashing in their eyes every other maintenance.

[Nai_Calus]

They should just make 3* permanent at the rate they're going.

(Also Prestoc is listed in the Perfect Bible with those stats, apparently, why the hell did it take so long to notice that?)

...Wait, since when does Rol actually care about her grandfather? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif Guess all of Ethan's bitching at her finally did something.

[Sharon]

I know this isn't exactly a new weapon, but nonetheless got this in the new Parum party mission today. The kubara Tyrant Spadaku (?). Anyway;
