  1. I've never heard of an issue like this before. Is he using controller or keyboard?
  2. The area beyond that room is not required to beat the quest. There are some of the gov quests that do have 4p switch doors, but it is never required to go through them. Those are also the only doors whose switches do not stay pressed down; there are several 2 switch doors but their switches will stay pressed after you walk off them, so you can open those doors solo regardless.
  3. This is something that has been considered, but it's not as easy to implement as you would think, could take a full rewrite of how shop works. The shops have like 1000 set lists of items and it randomly selects one when you enter pioneer2. This is why you can sometimes find the same weapons in the shop if you spam it, as there is a list with charge gatlings 50hit, a list that has charge calibur 40d 50h, etc.
  4. I can help you with this tommorow when you are available
  5. Honestly though, Arrest Needle has such a high base ata on it that you don't actually need much hit on it, 30 is plenty enough to hit everything in the game with no issues (50 can 2nd hit arrest deldepths, which is not supposed to happen, the game design for them is clearly 'only 3rd attack hits' kind of thing).
  6. Welcome to Ultima! I hope you enjoy it here!
  7. I'm signing on now, I'll fix you up if you are around.
  8. 25 would be a bit much for that anyway... (i'd personally say closer to 10), but as you wish, i will close this
  9. I believe it's /exp 1 to set it to 1x rate. /exp 0 would be server default rates (x3 up to 160, x2 after that, random x5 exp events). You can find a list of commands here https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/tool-box/commands/
  10. Slicer of fanatic is way better than assassin. Slicer of assassin is pretty bad, it's reduced hell, while fanatic is unreduced demons. It is possible to get slicer of fanatic in Black Paper Deal Vhard Zu route. Even without hit, with good sn usage it can be decently effective
  11. The issue with this (and your other one) is that you have to use a unit for stats to achieve it, and that is not worth it on forces. Forces already have their unit space extremely limited, so having one for stats alone is crippling. Force using melee will pretty much always have battle unit, smartlink, and v801 on regardless, leaving only 1 slot for v502 / cures / trapsearch / resists/ etc. (also v502 does not affect demons, it only affects hell/paralyze/freeze/confuse specials; smartlink on the other hand is worth more than a c/arms even at only mech range, it's basically a mandatory unit). Making the armor a actual part of the build is questionable when you could be using armors like kroes or sweetheart which much more significantly boost your stats overall. Being able to max dfp/evp on fomarl is completely irrelevant as not only are those stats are basically just as weak or weaker than mst is, raising her already low evp won't make any difference at all, and she has the naturally highest hp of the forces anyway as an actual defensive stat. Fomarl can max all her important stats regardless (ata, lck, atp, mst) without having to rely on neutron skin, and fonewearl isn't going to be able to use it to substitute needing 2 mags really. If you actually know how the tech formula works, mst is actually kind of a joke in what it really does for your techs (it's the least significant thing in the tech formula), the only place it's actually sorta valuable for is resta healing (only 2mst for 1 heal on resta, but a whole 5mst for 1 damage on tech before boosts and resists are applied, so effectively less gain than that usually), the 10ata from kroes or the ~50-200atp from a sweetheart is far more valuable than the mst from neutron skin for the most part. It is a very good armor still, not only for a low level force needing extra mst to equip support gear like glide, but also at high levels when you want a more support focused armor to give you some extra resta range and power on fonewm/fonewearl/hunewearl/ramarl or even humar/ramar, but the having the extra mst, whether it be from wearing neutron skin or from not wearing a mind mag in a 2mag plan, is not what is going to make or break techs being useful in casting role, that isn't nearly as important as just equipping the right techboost gear (e.g. if in ep4, I decide to help team by nuking down lizards, simply equipping hylian + pwand/quasar/pbridge is enough without having to switch to mind mag for it). I only touched on a few of the nuances on how certain stats work/don't work and maxing principles, but I hope it helps explain things a bit anyway.
  12. Wat? Please meet up with me so I can look into it.
  13. Generally people will create a new character and take the mag off it. This way you can choose the color of the mag, which is based on the outfit you select for the character (e.g. row 1 costume 1 is always red, row 2 costume 1 is always orange, etc.) Mags do technically drop from mines boxes on normal and hard I believe, but nobody ever does it like that.
  14. I'm in, and scott18 can too probably
  15. Momoka's Shop has now Re-Opened!
  16. Enough trolling, this should be a topic to help someone out, not to mess with them.
  17. you know i'm always down, just hit me up
  18. The thing about that is, ultimate multimode forest is not buffed, at all. It was just as hard in vanilla to foie a bartle as here (though vanilla you could enter ultimate 10 levels faster). Even in places where enemies are buffed, they get 25% more, not 50%. I've checked the math too, and I think you must be mistaken about something then. Perhaps you are inadvertently trying to compare offline stats to online stats (lvl 90 fomarl mst with 25foie and no boosts, units, or mag, would kill vanilla 1p bartle in 4 foie, as opposed to 6 for online bartle, again for which vanilla and ultima have identical stats)? Most people that are entering forest and saying it's too hard are more than likely neglecting one or more things for their character, be it keeping their mag up to date in levels, having eaten some materials they pick up on the way, or simply misrembering that the vanilla game was just as big or bigger of a jump (especially considering the 10 level difference in entrance requirement). Regardless of whether such a command is/isn't possible, it wouldn't change anything on the monsters, and it'd still be a struggle until you could fix whatever was neglected for your character.
  19. It does either 1540 or 1560 i think, and the trap itself does like 100ish (you can customize a mate and heal in the trap i think though). You won't survive it as a fonewm. However, the attack is completely dodgable. Much like baranz missiles, you can't outrun the green ball, but you can outturn it. You just have to run circles around it until it goes away. When you see him do the attack, run a short distance away, then start running in circles, and it should miss you every time. Use a menu to keep from slowing to a walk if need be.
  20. You don't have a mouse? I assume that means a trackpad. Are you sure you aren't doing the zoom movement on it? It's possible to disable such inputs on your trackpad too. There are a few specific quests that do funky camera in the final room where it zooms in like that, but it will change back after clearing the room or piping to pioneer2 and back (I often pipe in such rooms right away myself), but it sounds like you are having it happen anywhere. This doesn't sound like a game issue, so reinstalling wouldn't do anything.
  21. It's the black paper shield (the organization, not the quest). I only know of two people that have it, myself and griff (i challenged him to go figure out how to get it haha). The stats aren't great or anything, but it does look pretty sweet.
