    It's been a long time coming...

    If you're missing monsters while on ultimate difficulty Keliou, why are you surprised? Put simply, the monsters in ultimate ARE TOUGH, the end. Even my characters miss those monsters once in a blue moon in ultimate, even the "mighty" Trigunman, my lvl 200 RAmar, who has very high ATA. (somewhere near 360 I think) Now if you're missing them in lower difficulties, I'd start to question what weapons are you using? Some of them are notoriously inaccurate, namely mechs and shots for RA weapons. If you're missing alot, my suggestion is to seriously hunt up or start saving your PDs for some very nice rare weapons with hit. As far as the crits go, see above explanation for ultimate monsters... Otherwise, do something about your armor if it's insufficient, it's why I've focused some on def mats for my characters and trying to find the strongest armor for my characters as possible. You need strong DEF and powerful armor when in ultimate if you plan to survive for long. Unfortunately, offensive ability can only take you so far and in some cases will not help you much against massive numbers of enemies in quests like Wrath of Forest or Plan of Salvation in EP1, you can easily get overwhelmed by superior numbers. Regardless, I hope this helps, good luck!

    I agree on all counts with TRI except for a few points (rather addition to some points). Namely depending on the hit pattern you do, for example I rarely miss with my FOmar (which has 176 base ATA) if you always start with a normal attack, even hell and those types of special, starting with a normal sometimes increases the likelihood it hits, if you have a cast then freeze traps can be your best friend or a frozen shooter :D (as it reduces EVP) making you highly unlikely to miss. There are also some weapons (higher tier) that add a lot more ATA. On you ranger you can also equip a "Ranger Wal" which boosts ATA over your base. Spread needle also works nicely on A LOT of mobs.

    Armor wise, while it's true that high dfp is awesome and stuff, BUT focusing on HP is more useful than defence (imo), being knocked down by crits is a lifesaver, because you get that one second you could mate/resta in (or run away if you got invincibility with a good mag setup). Defence decreases damage by a small amount but with the buffed mobs, not so much the case. Some mobs also do a stable amount of damage regardless of what your DFP is (like the dorphon jump, which I know can crit but still, Falz's swipe attack etc).

    Also, as a tip, always end your combo at second hit if you plan on being up close and personal, gives you time to run and get to their backs, on lots of mobs, same technique.

    And put to shame by the legendary :(

    **Hell, i guess a better question would be How much are they buffed...

    I am not sure of the exact numbers, but from what I read up so far, speed, attack speed, HP, ATP, EVP are buffed by 1.5 or something like that. I will need someone to confirm this lol.

    Just a little question.

    This is totally based on assumptions; but I believe the most people that benefit from HP refill includes Casts/Hunters when solo, only class the benefits from TP really is just Force (that doesn't include certain exceptions ofcourse), it might also be that, Health > TP (because well you don't die when TP reaches 0).

    Those are just my opinions :)

    When to start playing multiplayer?

    in Help and Guides

    @King ra: Thanks. I played this game way back on dreamcast, but I haven't really played any video games for the past 5 years so I'm a bit rusty. ATM I'm getting pwned in Skyrim on adept setting for example.

    I have another question about multiplayer. Due to health reasons I try not to spend too much time at the computer. Do people playing multiplayer expect a person to stay logged into a group for a certain time. I realize there's not going to be any written rules (although I see a subforum for organized teams...), but will people be annoyed if I logout after 30 minutes or so?

    Welcome to the forums :)

    The main objective of any game is to have fun, kick back and make friends :)

    If you need help learning the ropes, PM me on the forums; I will be happy to answer any questions you might have to the best of my ability.

    As for games, there are some games that do indeed take more than 30 minutes if your group isn't well versed in it, some games that should take more 30 minutes sometimes take way less. So it's really group dependant; my advice though try to let the team know prior to activating a quest that you may leave in 30 minutes.

    As for organized teams, teams are a fun way to meet new people and for them to be understanding of your issues whilst trying to help you out at the same time.

    Anyways good luck and remember. HAVE FUN!

    P.S. Level Sneak and Smithing in Skyrim, might make it a bit easier (especially with how over powered sneak attacks can get :o).

    Alright if you do not want to use Google Translate.

    Open Avast.

    Click on Settings.

    Go to "Global exceptions" and click

    You will find File Path and URL. On File Path; click on "Browse" and find the PSOBB folder.

    Put a check on it by clicking on the box right next to it on the right.

    It should work :)

    Thank you for reading :D
