Trifluids and Trimates

[Night_Star]

is there a lvl when you are ALWAYS able to buy them?
cause there is nothing more frustrating when you are a lvl 145 fonewearl with 2500 tp, and you have no more trufluids, and you cant buy any http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_bash.gif
same goes with an android who has over 1000 hp, and dimates dont always work, and you have no more trimates... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

I don't think that they will always be availble. If they're not there, I guess you'll just have to do the shop version of the telepipe trick.

As far as I can tell, they never appear 100% of the time. More like 50%. Just buy 10 extra and toss them in the bank.

Back on ver.2 Trimates and Trifluids did permanently appear in the shop once you hit level 101+ (I think). I don't really understand why ST changed that in E1&2, but it may have to do with the fact that they also removed Scape Dolls completely from the shop. I'm guessing they wanted to keep a certain number of randomly appearing items in the shop (there are 5 in E1&2, not counting spell disks).

Scape Dolls were removed from v3 due to game balancing IMO (and correctly so).

Trimates/Trifluids are common, almost 50% at level 100, so you only need a few "shop pipe tricks" to make the one you need appear. I think I do remember seeing a Scape doll in the shop once, or I could be remembering something else. If they do appear in shops, it is exreamly low chance, much less than grinders.

Why? Is it because so people can't stock up on dolls? Just curious. However, I have found so many scape dolls just randomly running around than I know what to do with it. It is still possibly to stock up, I guess. Hm.

I really don't see the reason why Sol Atomizer isn't in store all the time, though. =P But, it is good when you're in a game with strangers, it gives you something to talk about. Hehe. "Hey do you have Sol on sale in store?"

Yeah getting tons of scape dolls wouldn't be that fun. I like you're theroy on the sol atomizers. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

my advice for a long run which is heavy on tp is to buy lots of trifluids when you can, and just drop them on the floor. that way all you have to do is pipe up collect some from the floor and go back down. i do it when feeding mags. i just buy in bulk drop it on the floor and when i run out of specific items i just pick up some more. saves me having to goto the shop the whole time.

so nobody knows if they appear in the shops 100% of the time eh?
oh well... i guess i could just stock up a bunch in my bank when i cant buy the, http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

we do know, they dont appear 100% full stop. its random whether they show up or not. and you can only put 10 in your bank.
about dropping them on the floor, do it in a game with 4 friends, lock that game, or hide them like in the principal. i do it ocasionally.
