During last week's update, a new set of items arrived at the Desert Arms Shop. Six of these were striking weapons with four being only available with a particular element. *Here are the item names followed by their intended restrictions and further followed by their current restrictions:
Go Vahra Claws<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre"> </span>(Any)<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre"> </span>[40% Lightning]
Ank Kilik<span style="white-space: pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>(Dark only)<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre"> </span>[40% Dark]
DB's Sword+<span style="white-space: pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>(Ice only)<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre"> </span>[37% Ice]
Neiclaw+<span style="white-space: pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>(Fire only)<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre"> </span>[32% Fire]
Twin Neiclaws+<span style="white-space: pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>(Fire only)<span style="white-space: pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>[22% Fire]
Crea Doubles+<span style="white-space: pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>(Any)<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre"> </span>[33% Light]
As was discovered over the weekend, these items have been restricted on the English PC/PS2 and Xbox 360 servers to have specific percentages. The two weapons which should be available in any element are also restricted to a particular element.
A fix to these items has been announced (http://phantasystaruniverse.com/news_item.php?item=nid111) to be coming soon. The JP 360 page (http://xbox360.phantasystaruniverse.jp/news/wis/?mode=view&amp;id=307) has mentioned that the team is planning compensation, however they have not stated what it is or when it will occur.

Update: A discussion thread has been started here (http://www.pso-world.com/forums/showthread.php?t=166412). The currently known restrictions have also been added to the weapon list.

Update: Ank Kilik value added from JP 360 maintenance notes (http://xbox360.phantasystaruniverse.jp/news/wis/?mode=view&id=307). Compensation (http://pso-world.com/news/0357-desert-arms-trade-ins-fixed) has already been announced.

33% isn't bad, I like the f act that it is guaranteed to be 33%, so there is no chance that it will be lower.

those percentages do not bother me one bit, my aptitude after playing PSU for three years does!

I just got done trading in the items for the Crea doubles+ and the so called fixed Pub lagged me straight out what up with that?
I hope Sega can do some thing about that because that was my favorite 24% ice 6/10 Crea doubles
