This is a problem! I'm almost done with hard mode and I haven't founds a single rare! NOT EVEN A VIRISTA! I need help! Does anyone know a good place for a skyly humar on hard to find some rares?

Not really sure where to find some rare items but usually, you'ld have the most likely chance of finding a rare drop in Forest. It would probably be better though for you to get to very hard first because very hard has a higher rate of drops than hard mode.

Im a Skyly and ive got a few rares. ONLY cos I play online, I havnt found any offline. I find quite a few rare boxes on Hard and Very Hard mode, so try those online.

Ive found none on offline mode.

I'm a Viridian. HUmar, level 72. I find rares -all- the time. I just found one earlier after beating that worm thing on Vhard.

Up until then, I hadn't found any rares..and I'd played through forest 1 http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Anyway, I'll be going through the mines now, and I'm sure I'll find more than one rare there http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif After all, it was there I got my God/Body and Proto Regene Gear..Light Relief, I think too..may have gotten that in the Spaceship. Anyway! Reporting later.

Edit: I play offline.

I haven't found too many rare weps offline but I've found Photon Drops, and Add Slots, Mats, Merges, and Amps offline. I've also found a rare Ranger wep from a Nar Lily on Hard though.

Don't worry, you're going through a bit of drought right now however things should improve sooner or later. I think it happens to most people everynow and again. For me I had no problem finding any rares with my Hucaseal while on Hard difficulty, at my peak ( Hard Ruins ) I was finding a red boxes in everysingle room, somtimes multiple red boxes ( nothing special, mostly DB's Sabers [hate them, find too many], last Survivors and Flowen Swords ) but my point was I was kneee dep in the stuff. Then when I got to Very Hard a good 10 or so hours passed before I saw another red box, which was especially anoying since I refused to make any progress at all untill I got my Yamato and my Dragon Slayer, it got to a point where I would have even been happy if someone dropped a DB's Saber, thats how desperate I was to see a red box. Anyhow I started finding them again although I don't find nowhere as much red boxes as I used to.

I go through times all the time where I dont find any rares, but just keeping going at it and you will eventually find one.

hmm i never seem to have a prob w/ finding those red boxes its the rare monsters i can hardly find, even using the telepipe trick until my FO runs out mana a few times (he has 1136 max TP, thats 113 ryukers, then its 10 meseta for the nurse)
2 Hildeblues, 1 didnt drop nething, 1 dropped Diska of Liberator
3 Nar Lilies, forgot what they dropped but i got sumthing all three times
1 pouilly slime, on normal and i got master/ability
6 Al rappies, these r pretty common, only 1 never droped nething 'cept meseta
0 love rappies, hildetorrs, pal rappies, and mil lillies
mostly i get most of my rares from normal monsters (i found 10 diska of liberators on vhard & hard, dang i got sick of red boxes for a while)

I'd rather rarely find a good rare than frequently find a crappy rare.

Keep things in perspective.

the problem with rares is, they are aren't worth much to sell. so you might as well keep them for your efforts.

The more often you play Hard, the more rares you get. In the beginning, if it wasn't for a Nar Lily and a Hildeblue, I wouldn't have gotten rares. After a while of playing Hard, the odds increase. I found once 2 rares in a couple of minutes, and later again one or two. Play more to get more. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

apparantly If you play with 3 other people the chances of a enemey droping a rare increase, I didn't start really finding alot of rares until i got to Very hard.

Yeah..I didn't really find any rares on Hard. I didn't start really finding them until VHard. I Did, however, find a bunch of Varistas and Brionacs. Brionacs from Nano Dragons in the cave, and Varistas from Various things in the Temple.

And that's all Skyly usually finds before the console decides to pop out of the uber stuff.

if im not mistaken my friend who was the same class and section id as you found a yamato in the forest on hard or maybe it was very hard? check the item findings and databse on that one.

I have found almost all of my rares in Forest on hard and vhard, its a good place for easy exp to, the number one reason i did this was to get Musashi and Yamato that u get from teh Dragon .. these are pretty good and easy to get !
When you play the same area over and over without entering another apparently your chance for dropps increase, or so it seems anyway.
I got brance of pakupaku after 10 runs on Forest offline !

You really don't want to worry about those kind of rares "Varista", stuff like that.
I get them all the time in hard, and i never find any use for them...

Just do some quests and slay some bosses, you'll find some. Besides the rares on hard usually suck anyway (save musashi, mace of adamn and a few others)

I'm really sick of finding Db Sabers.....

I usually find a lot of body parts on hard... Maybe try hunting for those.

I found 3 booma armes in 3 hard forest runs in a row http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Man, I found varista, musashi and all that in Hard.
VH was the worst for rare drops with Ult being the best.

Dillon

Vhard's been my best for rares..I've not gotten into Ultimate enough to find anything decent.

Most of mine were 9 stars, such as the dragon slayer, the two cross scars and the mace of adaman.
Mace of adaman is 10 though isn't it?

Yeah like mention before don't worry about rares right now. It's only Hard mode. You probably won't find and good rares untill later on in Very hard or Ultimate.

Oh yeah and skly doesn't find great rares in EP I anyways the good stuff is in Ep II.
