ok i want a yasha beings i have a sange and am a pretty big fan of double katana weapons. anyways, i have a viridia and a skyly with access to ultimate, and i was wondering, what would be easier to drop it, an indi belra or a melqueek. either seems like a pain in the butt. well ive got my work cut out for me, wish me luck. also how do i combine the 2 if and when i get the yasha. and which special does it have and which percents does it take or is it reset? well anyways, thanks.

i have those same colors on ult and im looking for it also. i think it would be easier to look for it on melqueeks. But my friend found one from a indi belra by huge luck im sure.

I would personally try the Melqueeks, simply because thre's more of them available.

There's more Melqueeks, but they have arguably one of the stingiest drop rates. It's estimated that they drop an item (any item) 15% of the time (that's roughly 1 in 6.66~ kills will give you some kind of item). The Indi Belra has a higher drop rate, but yes there's less of them. Personally, because of the drop rates, I think it'd be easier to get a Yasha off an Indi Belra. I can even make an example for this using different critters with similar drop and appearance rates. With Purplenum I tried literally for months to find a Spread Needle from a Merlan. Lots and lots of Merlans, but they're stingy enemies. I got my Redria rolling and decided to try with him instead. It only took me a couple days to get a Spread Needle off a Dark Bringer, which are low quantity but have something like an 85% item drop rate. Same can be said of my recent flood of Kasami Bracers. It took me roughly 30 Purplenum runs through the Mine to get one from a Canabin, and yet it only took around 10 and then another 3 Yellowboze runs to get two Kasami Bracers off of Sinow Blues. Anyway, enough rambling from me.

If you can ever get online I would suggest playing either Lost Ice Spinner for Melqueeks (tons in there) or Maximum Attack 2 for Indi Belras (quite a lot in there). One of these days I'll probably go after the Belras, but it's not advised to do that alone since they gang up on you. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif

Do you have a link to the guide that tells the item drop rates for certain monsters?

Yeah I hear ya Vulpes, but consider how long it takes to get to those Belras also. In the time it takes to clear ruins through to the belras you can kill a helluva lot more melqueeks, especially if you're item searching on your own.

If you're in a team, then yeah sure go for the Belras, not sure it's the best one solo though.

The Yasha drops from Temple Belras, not Ruins ones. If you're online, you can play Maximum Attack 2 and easily get to a good sized group of Belras.

well im offline and since i have to go through temple one to get to any indi belras, i think it might be a better idea to go for melqueeks. i can play quests for them and get a lot. the only problem is, is that there so darn stingy. im not sure if this is a good idea to go for them above indi belras but im gunna give it a shot. when i play from now on ill just swich off between the 2 so i dont get bored.

Let's not forget Indi Belras hurt. -_-;; Even at Level 126 as a HUcaseal, I am still getting knocked down with critical hits.

I recommend that anybody who's looking for Yasha in VR Temple, save your Pillas. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif
