My sad sad search for the Holy Ray . . .

[jDA025]

My name is Jonathan and I'm a Holy Ray-aholic, and I have been on the hunt for one for almost two months now. It all started when the day my FOmar grew boring. I began losing interest; it was time to experiment. I grabbed a pair of vulcans with high hit percent and started gunnin' down all enemies. It was amazing, with a dash of S&D and pinch of J&Z my FOmar once again became a threat. I found myself killing Vulmers and Govulmers in seconds; it was amazing. This went on for a week or so before I grew tired of the mechgun animation. It was time to find a new more powerful gun for the FOmar. I set my eyes on the Holy Ray. I started on Forest runs. Forest run after Forest run yielded no Holy Ray. There is the saying that "a cat's got nine lives" well the Sil Dragon has over forty. I got fed up; I quit. Until recently, I attained the Demolition Comet. With the Demolition Comet, I started Cave runs with my HUcaseal. I got to the Dal Ral Lie, and decided that I did not have enough healing items and I had to start dropping them on the raft. Well I did this multiple times, and it was about the third time, I forgot to deposit all 400k meseta. I died, returned to the bank to find 0 meseta. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif I shut it off and went to class. After returning I decided to give it another go. "Underground Channel" read the teleporter. It was a glorious battle, but after fifteen or so minutes I slain the beast. As I waited for the lights to turn on I saw it, it was the red box I had anticipated for months. I ran to it to find "PHOTON DROP". http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif In summation I do not believe I will ever be able to get the Holy Ray. PSO is toying with me, and I quit. Is anyone as frustrated as I am with attaining this weapon?

yes, holy ray is good, but don't go out searching for it specifically. you will never get it that way (the truth) just have fun with the game, if you search for specific weps, they will never come (in my experieances)

I disagree! I went searching for it with my Blueful (the only reason why I played him) and about the 15 at Sil Dragon I see a red box and it indead was a Holy Ray (Stats 0/15/0/25/25 found like that)! And that is the only weapon (next to S-Rank Twin) that my FOmar uses!

[kidterru]

My bluefull has found about 6 holyrays now from sil dragon. yet non have hit%.

I was super lucky getting my Holy Ray. I watched my friend defeat the Sil Dragon straight after he had unlocked Ultimate, guess what it dropped? the Holy Ray! I asked, can I have pleeeeaase? answer - "sure, why not" http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Got it yesterday after about 11 runs or so! Sadly no Hit% on it!

[Eihwaz]

Unless there's a specific Caves rare that you're hoping might drop, it might be faster to do Ult Unsealed Door runs. You do fight Dal Ra Lie at the end, and he has just the same chance as dropping it there than any other, and you get to go through Mines instead of Caves...

Of course, if you're not ready for Ult Mines, keep up with the Cave runs.

[kingmurp]

Good luck with it. I haven't found too many holy rays myself. Just stick with it, try playing at different times.

I was fairly lucky with mine too, only it took me two runs and it was Dal Ra Lie. As an additional bonus, it came with 15% Hit untekked, I believe it was.

[LordMe]

never found a holy ray...don't want one my RAmar could not use it anyway...my FOnewm could...but he wont

[PJ]

I could certainly use a Holy Ray for my FOmarl! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

What IS the Rifle Animation like with the FOmarl anyways? I know the FOmar has the same as the RAmar (With my Bringer's Rifle being the Rifle I use).

Hmmm... I'm trying to et a Holy Ray with my Pinkal, but so far I've only tried once ^_^

[kingmurp]

It's the same as ramarl i would believe.

[Hrith]

Yep, it is.

[Fojar]

if you want a better female rifle look for angel harp. its just pretty rare :-/

[Delsaber]

Wow, I have got three Holy Rays out of 5 Unsealed Door runs.

[Noone]

well i looked on drop percentage for the holy ray for the sil dragon and that said in 1/46 and snce you did about forty kills for the sil dragon, a couple more could get you the gun. Personally, i looked for it for a while then gave up... then i found it after doing a forest run. I didn't bother using it cause my fomar couldn't do much with it, well i won't turn him to a fighting force for a while.
