    It seems like this is actually wrong.

    I actually tried before I chose to make Mille Faucilles a 250 grindable weapon and here were the results:

    Against a Gillchich, a 0/0/100/0 Mille Faucilles +250 (550-550 ATP) and a 0/0/100/0 Rianov 303SNR-5 +0 (550-550 ATP) deal exactly the same damage.

    I remember when I made a topic showing this a Fyrewolf5 said I was wrong but was too lazy to prove me wrong (since he was wrong). At least someone else was willing to test this.

    OK...I have windows xp. I can't find a recording program that works on it for free. The best I found records for 3 minutes max and makes my PC have death slow motion. Good luck on the event. Too bad technology will be a main factor to determine the participants. I wish I had the ability to record my runs. But, alas, I will just be a cheerleader.

    I imagine if your windows xp computer is strong enough to run pso it should be strong enough to record videos. Try camstudio

    This is a great idea in principal, but the restrictions make it available to only a few. I did have 3 godricks and some neg stats weapons but I saw no point in keeping them (although when they got dumped, I did say to myself that i'd regret it!). PPP mags are straightforward to come by and FTD is doable but again it's another barrier to entry.

    I don't think a large portion of the community will have OBS (or any other recording software), although that's less of a issue.

    It's your event and you're free to do whatever you see fit, and I don't want to seem rude, I'm just offering my opinion (as I'd really like to win some gear!!)

    If you could ease the entry restrictions to cater to more people that would be awesome - you could still make it super hard in other ways if that's your plan.

    Whatever, it's cool that you're doing something with your gear rather than letting disappear in to the ether. Good luck to you :D

    It's actually super easy to record gameplay. I've used stuff like camstudio, bandicam, fraps (there's a way to get the full version for free) and maybe others which are free to download and easy to use. Even though my laptop is crap it works fine. It's probably more effort to download and play pso on ultima, than it is to record what's playing on your screen. I can help people out if needed too.

    Seems interesting but I'm not sure how many people purposefully tekk to get negative started weps (I don't) and of course those who do would have a major advantage. It seems like blank weapons would be fine since those can be obtained easily in BPD. The rule where you state "no overpowered weapons" is very vague and subjective so I hope you clarify that with absolutely certainty so there's no ambiguity that causes issues during the event.

     

    I think it's a good idea to have difficult challenges where you can compete against each other, but too many restrictions make it quite difficult to have the right gear to participate. I don't have a blank ppp mag but wouldn't equipping no mag have the same effect?

    was gonna take it but person cancelled buying my item few minutes ago <.<

    For the record, you shouldn't bid on something with currency you don't have, and "withdrawing" from an auction is not okay. Especially not during the last minute. I hope you don't do that on any other post or you'll earn yourself quite a bad reputation.

    Honestly, it sounds like it would be fun to team with you. I'm not really part of a team, but I'll hit you up for some duo hunting of vday stuff when that starts. I actually need to hunt most things it seems. I normally play FOnewm unless I have to play another class and I'd be down to chat on discord or something.

    Ideas to improve the server - feel free to post!

    Lets combo lock DF and DM.  That will drop the pgf price and balance all the other weapons.

     

    Make chair colors customizable.

    I'd actually like to see what impact this would have on the server. It would be interesting to see how people adapt. Some people are very reliant on their DWs and I'd be interested to see how they would do without it.

    I guess there's always other servers who do this, and I'd imagine this change would anger people so yeah.. It'll probably never happen.

    Maybe they could do something like crack mode where DWs are combo locked, but you get more experience when playing in that mode or slightly better drops. Just a little something to incentivize people to play without them.

    Although that may somewhat divide the player-base and make it more difficult to find rooms with people.

    Purple and green have a lot of similar drops overall, and both are pretty good in ep4 sub-desert with being the only id to have both sof and heaven striker there. Yellowboze has kroe's from eclair and v502 from kondrieu and heaven striker (though your redria also gets it), as well as being quite good in many other episodes and areas too. Oran is mostly only good in crater for v502 from astark + kondy and lame d'argent from dorphon, it's pretty lackluster everywhere else. Skyly does get lame d'argent like oran, but most good skyly drops are pretty niche and relatively difficult hunts, so it's not actually as good as people think.

    Tier1
    Whitill, Purplenum, Yellowboze

    Tier2
    Oran, Redria, Greenil, Skyly

    Tier3
    Viridia, Blueful

    Tier4
    nothing

    Tier5
    nothing

    Tier6
    Pinkal

    I like the fact that you made a tier list. I've made ones like this in my head for a lot of things including section ID. I generally agree with everything although I'd personally move redria down one tier. Maybe it's better than I realize but generally it's helped me most during events and not much else. I normally get redria drops I want on other IDs. It doesn't seem like a top 5 section ID to me. I would also move Viridia down one tier. I don't find ADR that useful considering dress plate is easy to come by, and of course STA exists, I suppose it does have it's use since it's a shield instead of an armor although I'd rather just ttf with whitill. I generally find Bluefull to be on the level on redria in terms of viability with viridia slightly below due to it's lack of versatility. Greenill is kinda hard to place, but since materials are so incredibly useful I understand why you'd put it that high.

    I also like how Pinkal gets two blank tiers above it to indicate it's unviability. I've played my Pinkal for almost 400 hours and it's been quite underwhelming. I even made a second FOnewm to satisfy my desire to play that class without suffering from a poor ID.
