Thanks for the advice everyone. I have Kroes Sweater just have to gain 6 more levels to use it.

I've been wanting to try this quest ever since I heard about it, but I know it's very difficult, and I wanted to make sure my characters were sufficiently leveled, and well equipped for it. My two high level characters right now are a FOmarl (lv.175) and a FOnewm (lv.173), they both have high level techs including level 30 support spells, and the equipment I have is: Psycho Wand Excalibur (45% hit) Mother Garb+ Hylian Shield Red Ring Three Seals Resta Merge Glide Divine Rico's Parasol Tyrell's Parasol Vivienne (45% hit) Bringer's Rifle (50% hit) Slicer Of Fanatic Rambling May Ultima Reaper Girasole Charged Gatling (50% hit) Charged Raygun (50% hit) Cent/Arms Adept Cent/Ability V101 V801 V502 SMARTLINK Cure/Units (any) Level 200 mind mags and pow+dex mags Stuff I use less often: Rainbow Baton (40% hit) Summit Moon Caduceus Hell Gatling (45% hit) Holy Ray PB/Increase I've never played the quest so I'm not exactly sure what to expect. Does it seem like I'm ready? What should I be hunting for? I've been trying to get SoF with hit recently, but I'm still working on that. Among what I have, what should I bring if I do try it, and with which class? I'll be on pso for almost all of tomorrow (Tuesday) so if anyone wants to try this quest with me that would be great thanks

Wow that's pretty cool I like it! I've been using the one Nessly made http://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/topic/11523-ultima-drop-chart-spreadsheet-with-filters/#entry89947

Excalibur is good to hunt for. Well generally the best quest for fighting Dorphons is MA4DMD, but a level 125 HUcaseal will have some trouble surviving in that quest. Make sure you have some decent guns. Charged Raygun, Charged Vulcan, Hell Raygun and Last Swan are good options. Make sure they have hit if possible. Using the unit SMARKLINK can also come in handy. Confuse traps will come in handy. Weapons will Demon or Arrest specials will help kill Dorphons quickly. Since you're skyly, you could also hunt for red sword/chain sawd by playing ultimate caves. I bet either of those swords would help you. The cool thing about hunting lame, is that you can get daylight scar, cent/ability, BLUE ODOSHI VIOLET NIMAIDOU and Vivienne at the same time all of which could be helpful for a HUcaseal.

I found a lame with 0/0/35/0 lol. Lmk if you want it.

1 PD for the Charged Raygun?

I'm home. I believe your inbox is full. I'm in lobby as tru1.

Could you hold that ultima reaper for me? I'll buy it when i get home in about an hour or two. I'll message you when I'm available.

Happy hours started!

I've got a few questions Is there a rifle a Hucast can use apart from Asteron Striker? Is it worth having an Asteron Striker without hit? Do other percentages matter for Asteron Striker? How much PDs would a Asteron Striker cost with or without hit? Which classes can wield AS and how much ATA does it require?

You can only get it through the triforce event, which is in september. Last triforce event it was from Gal Gryphon on ultimate and Purplenum had the best chance to get it. Something like 1/158. Hylian Shield is the best shield for nuking. Three seals is sort of a watered down version that is easier to get. It comes from Redria and Skyly on very hard from Delbiters. 1/236.

Where's a good place to find resistances of enemies? I think I'm either not reading this guide correctly, or the resistances are different on the ultima server http://www.pso-world.com/beastiary.php?location=9&artid=2468&version=v3 I'm mostly just wondering for EDK. For Dorphon Eclairs on ultimate it says they have 97 EDK online. The formula for the chance of Megid succeeding based on http://www.freewebs.com/azurepso/psostatistics.htm is "Lv.16-30: [2 x (TLv - 1)] + 42 TBP - EDK = Success (%)" Meaning level 30 Megid would have a TBP of 100, and subtracting that from the enemy's EDK would give you the percentage of success. Meaning you would only have a 3% chance of successfully Megiding a Dorphon Eclair with level 30 Megid. That doesn't seem quite accurate. On another note, is it ever possible to successfully Megid a boss (dark falz for example)?

I use attack/heavy attack/resta on the main command list, rafoie, extra attack, rabarta on the extra command list. Then for hotkeys I use 1. Shifta 2. Deband 3. Jellen 4. Zalure 5. Reverser 6. Anti 7. Grants 8. Megid 9. Gifoie 0. Razonde 9 and 10 I switch out often. I also switch extra attack out for Razonde when I'm not using it. I often use Gizonde for Vol Opt, but it has other uses. Zonde can also be pretty useful imo. You can also manually reorder your techs in the quick menu to make certain ones easier to access.

What quest would be best for hunting Pazuzus?

Thanks for the advice, that really helps. Do you understand this guide? http://www.pso-world.com/sections.php?op=viewarticle&artid=721It seems like it's saying the more rare weapons you find in a run, the less chance it has of having good stats.

I remember using this guide Tycho made back when I played on GC. http://www.pso-world.com/sections.php?op=viewarticle&artid=2306He writes "best for hit percentage" often next to rare weapons. I figure that means if you hunt an item from one enemy instead of another it has a higher chance of having hit, is that true? Does that also mean it has a higher chance of having Native/A.Beast/Machine/Dark percentages? What would be the best way of finding a Diska of Bravemen with good stats?

I'm a smash player. My tag is Tru. I mostly just play melee. PM is fun too. Fox, Falcon a bit of Falco and a low tier Roy I pull out for fun I bet you'll enjoy this server, it's amazing! I started pso on gc too. I had a level 118 HUmar and level 120 FOnewm.

If you use as many materials as your class allows, you won't be able to use anymore. The use option won't appear when you try to use a material from your inventory. On this server, the max stats for all the classes have been increased by 100, except for ata, luck and evp. Ata gets 10 points higher, luck doesn't gain any and evp gains +30. If you plan on getting your characters to level 200 you should generally be careful about what materials you use on them, but it's always fine to use HP and TP mats. Generally EVP and DEF are bad stats and not worth maxing so those materials should never be used. The mag you raise isn't too big of a deal since you can always make another when you get to higher levels. God/Units are extremely outclassed by Centurion/Units on this server. You should never use God/Units to max your character out. Generally you want to max out your characters stats while leaving as many slots free for helpful units like cure/units and v502, smartlink etc. The best slot items for maxing out imo are: Centurion/Arms: It gives +35 ata which is the equivalent of 70 points on a mag Adept: It gives 20 to ata 10 to all other stats and 6 to all resistences. Which is the equivalent of 55 points on a mag (not including defense or evasion because they aren't useful) The 6 points of resistance do come in handy, it also reduces the TP costs by 1/4. Centurion/Ability: It gives 3 ata and +30 to all other stats. Which is the equivalent 51 points on a mag. You generally always want to have a slot opened for units that increase battle speed. Centurion/battle is the best giving a 110% boost. V101 is a much easier to get option, that is still useful. If your character casts techniques often you'll want v801 which also gives +5 mst, which you should keep in mind for maxing. Smartlink is great for the accuracy boosts with guns, and V502 is helpful for weapons with hell (among others) You can find the base stats and max stats of each class at level 200 on a bunch of websites. Your goal is to take the max and subtract the base to see how much of each stat you need to max out, then use materials, your mag, your armor and shield, and units (if needed) to reach those. Red ring boosts ATA over max and gives 20 to all other stats (not including def or evp again) so keep that in mind when maxing. Certain armors can raise stats over max like Sue's coat, Kroes Sweater, Godric Cloak etc, only certain classes can equip these armors.

Hmm is this information posted anywhere? I've been using pso-world (i know it's not the best source of information) when it comes to planning max stat characters, and adding 10 to max accuracy and 30 to all other stats besides evasion for this server. So the Hucast's base ata here http://www.pso-world.com/sections.php?op=viewarticle&artid=1184 is 158 and the max is 191 (201 on this server), so he would need 43 ata to max out right? Or if there was a hidden .5 it would be 42.5. Where did you find the 188.5?

Ah interesting. Do you know which other classes have that hidden .5 ata to where they would need one less point of dex to max out?
