Item: Anyone finding Hit Materials?

[Amethyst]

I'm not sure why, but for some odd reason none of my friends and I have found ANY hit materials. Our levels are pretty high and in Vhard. Do we just have bad luck? wrong ID? or what?

[VulpesMundi]

It's quite simple. Sonic Team removed Hit Materials from the game. I think this even includes Challenge mode. They just wanted to make it more challenging to raise the ATA score. Now you HAVE to use DEX on a MAG and/or ?/Arm units.

You'll also notice that ?/Arm units tend to give a lower bonus. A default Marksman/Arm is still +3. A default General/Arm is now only +5 (used to be +7). And a default Elf/Arm is +7 (used to be +11). From what I've heard a default God/Arm is still +15.

[Amethyst]

Yea, the Arms are totaly bad now. My Character needed 6 more ata so I equipted a General/Arm (+5). Then I remembered I had a Elf/Arm-- which turned out to be also +5. Strange, I thought it should have been +6. Oh well http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Yeah, kind of a bummer that Hit Material is gone. Not that I need it because both of my characters are Rangers, but they did come in handy.

On thing that has bothered me so far is that they removed a couple of things that were extremely useful...

-State/Maint
-Trap/Search

What is up with that? Especially since the number of creatures that cause negative status effects has multiplied exponentially. It sucks that there's nothing you can do about it.

eh... I don't think they are removed, just less common, I've found a General/Battle today in ult. forest, so I'm pretty sure those are still in, maybe try a redria or keep looking in ult.

barubary said they've both been removed... not on any item lists.

i believe him.

I personally think it's a bit better that they're gone. RAngers are all the more useful, now. And you have to have a *GASP!* somewhat balanced MAG.

[Amethyst]

State/Maint gone? oh goody, that will make the dragon in ultimate even more fun. Anyone like ICE?

[Al-Rappy]

State/Maintenance and Trap/Search are not gone. Why would someone think that? But yes... Hit Materials are gone.

[VulpesMundi]

They are gone. Believe me. Trap/Search used to show up in the armor shop, too, starting at level 26 if I remember correctly.

If you want resistance against all status ailments, you're gonna have to look for a Sacred Guard now (assuming they still exist and are unchanged in this matter).

Funny, I found a Hit Material 2 days ago...

Funny, they aren't in the game, don't even appear on the WORD SELECT.

About the Trap/Search and State/Main. that's gonna suck, I hate carrying around Trap Visions... and finding a S.Guard is gonna be loads of fun :/

[Neo-Zenji]

Nope never found them in my wide long search..........that guy was probably talking about the dreamcast version.
