  2. All recovery items in shop

    Undoubtedly a great QOL to have.

     

    Lobbying without a quest

    As far as I know, this is made artificially in 3 steps

    1) Warp to pioneer II if initially on Ragol (not sure about this one)

    2) Start a quest

    3) Immediately exit the quest (Qexit)

    So that'd still make 2 extra loadings for returning to lobby which would feel... a bit weird?

    That aside, I don't like how it would make CCA farming more broken than it already is on Ultima.

     

    Fast Bursting

    I really wanted to see fast bursting, but this has a similar issue to the previous point...

    While the time gain would be pretty much insignificant (although definitely welcome) to anyone who runs long quests, such time gain is going to be huge for "early resets".

    I hate how some quests make it "play first room then /lobby" the most efficient way to grind stuff (PPP for Merikles, MA4 for Rappies, MADesert for Merissa/Girtablulus, LHB for Del Lilies etc...) so I really don't want to encourage that practice even more by making it even more OP and removing the top reason for NOT doing that.

     

    Being able to have more than 4 characters per account

    Was mentionned in staff on August 2019, Soly said it was tedious and sadly didn't get back on this.

     

    Being able to have more than 999,999 meseta in a bank

    This is not going to happen as long as meseta rooms are still a thing.

    The same players would stay forever in the room since they'd want to fill all their banks, and one can only drop/pick 999,999 meseta a time.

    The numbers showed above only apply for the first round. There will be 2 or 3 rounds.
    This is only meant to remove all the numbers from players who already won something and decrease the chance of invalid rolls (i.e rolling a winner again).
    That means you will be attributed new ranges of numbers for every round, as the upper generator bound gets lowered. The order won't change.
     

    To make sure the results are not rigged, I will use a Discord Bot (Carl-bot) in order to roll the numbers.
    Thus the rolls will happen live on Ultima official discord. Of course you don't need to be there at all.

     

    Ideally I would like to do it on Saturday 4th at 22:00 GMT but I need the remaining player(s) to pay what they owe.

    Not going to wait for the last one. It will take place on Saturday 4th at 22:00 GMT

     

    Live results will be noted here (as the rolls go on Discord) before I post on forum.

    If your number gets rolled, I will message you when your turn comes.

     

    Good luck to everyone.

    Vous parlez de quoi en disant "univers-ps" ? C'est un autre serveur ?

    Bienvenue,

    Officiellement, c'était juste le seul site français dédié à PSO, mais là on parle d'une team sur Ultima pour être plus précis.

    Ce n'est pas un autre serveur.

  7. I decided to make some modifications to S rewards (V1.15).
    I don't know if this will change again, but I hope this is final.


    - No longer possible to roll 0% attribute
    - No longer possible to roll 0% hit (so minimum is now 5% if hit rolled)
    - Chances at rolling hit increased from 1/5 to 1/3 (and each attribute decreased from 1/5 to 1/6)
    - Chances at getting a TypeSH/Shot doubled (1/5)
    - Chances at getting higher % values no longer reduced (except for 90 hit case)

    - Available specials are now all high tiers (13 possibilities instead of 40)
    - Some of the weapons were replaced (see table below)

     

     

    Spoiler

    Perharps this still "isn't worth your time" to grind 1h30 for a single attempt at one of those rewards.
    But I want to say that if you're not here for the fun, then you might as well pass and not play this quest :$
    These rewards were never meant to be extraordinary, in fact I was not even sure about adding rewards to the quest when I made it.
    But I figured it would be nice to give some small bonus to whoever dared defying the Abyss and making it to the very end, so I accepted to buff them.

     

     

    For more clarity, this is the list of Type weapons respectively available in the quests Beak's Cafe, Beach's Laughter, and the changes brought to Capital of The Unreturned.

  8. Yes, if you believe in miracles.

    You'd get 1/XXXX chance time the number of unlocked rewards, and XXXX the number of tickets left that haven't won anything yet.

     

    I highly suggest that anyone who has cards bid double digits in the raffle.

    If not, it could be worth buying some cards for it.

    Some might regret not participating.

     

    Edit: if you can't log in, you can send me a message with guildcard number and # of NYC to put in. But message must be sent by tomorrow.

    Maybe I am missing something... but is Angel Harp a Valentine drop or not? My blind eyes do no see it on the list!

    It's an all year drop, Pinkal 3/64 Pal Rappy (and Greenill 1/12603 Gibbles)

  10. For people who still wonder NYC's value (I thought someone else would do it) :

     

    On the hit basis, 40 NYC = 20 hit = 15 DTs 
    1 DT = 2.67 NYC

     

    On a special basis, 15 NYC = 1 special = 10 DTs 
    1 DT = 1.5 NYC

     

    So for this month, any price is fine because a raffle ticket value cannot be mathematically defined, but starting from March, the cost of NYCs should never exceed 1 DT for 1.5 NYC.

  11. For a long time, Yellowboze had an unfair advantage to get hit% more often than any other section ID in episode II.

    Today, the chances of rolling hit% have been adjusted to be equal for all section IDs.

     

    The following changes only apply to Episode II weapon drops on Ultimate, and is about odds that said weapon rolls hit attribute.

    It does not affect the actual values you will get.

     

    Viridia 2.97% => 5.88%
    Greenill 2.97% => 5.88%
    Skyly 2.97% => 5.88%
    Bluefull 2.97% => 5.88%
    Purplenum 2.97% => 5.88%
    Pinkal 2.97% => 5.88%
    Redria 2.97% => 5.88%
    Oran 2.97% => 5.88%
    Yellowboze 8.73% => 5.88%

  13. We're adding a rule: it is not allowed to have someone else bid your own New year cards, unless you really can't do it by yourself.

     

    ___

     

    Also, as @Flerbert noticed there was a missing reward, I decided to add a possible prize and let the current highest bidder decide what it would be.

     

    @777 picked Psycho Raven, so I'm adding that to the prizes list.

     

    Finally, reajusted all thresholds to be more affordable.

    How on earth do you miscalculate the number of gulgus that can be farmed?

    Because I don't know every single quest that exists on Ultima with all their monsters count by heart.

    If I asked you "what's the best quest to farm Goboomas, Pal shark, Canune, ep II Arlan, Ze boota, ep I boxes etc...."

    Can you tell me exactly and respectively which quest it is best to farm each of them?

    For example some of us just learnt not that long ago that some government quest is more efficient than any other quest for Dark Gunners because it had a very early room that had some. Before that, everyone would always run PTS because they wrongly thought it was best. Did you know that? I bet not.

    everyone has been doing the same max attack mission for years to farm these

    Yes. For "years". More precisely, one year. (christmas event 2021 => christmas event 2022)

    There's no way there are enough nyc in circulation for that raffle to benefit

    There are more than enough to reach the highest threshold. And that's not even counting all years spare drops.

    This is definitely something we should have known about. I can only vouch this year and last year but the rates from last year to the first part of this year's event seemed the same to me. I grinded all my New Year's Card with coman5. We got to like 400 or 500 before we noticed the drop.

    Proof that you didn't read after all then... I did say "this year". Not "this christmas event".

    And also proof that this was ridiculously easy: you've made 500 new year cards in a single week.

    Keeping this rate for more than 4 weeks of event means you could have made 2,000+ New year cards in a single Event.

    2,000 NYCs = 1,000% hit, which is a 750 dts worth.

    And you think... That wasn't enough?

    That's what you would get from selling 2 PGFs.

    Most people who farmed the PGF all the event got only one (if not zero).

     

    A couple last words, I should not even have to justify myself.

    NYCs have always been a risky gamble that you take.

    No one ever promised that they would serve godly purposes, so at least be grateful that you can redeem hit, because it could have been something worse or which you don't see the use (between mags, armor upgrades or whatever, you hardly "don't need %hit").

     

     

    Now I am asking you to keep the drama away from this topic.

    I will not repeat.

    Feel free to send a PM if you want to keep arguing but save other people from reading drama here.

    I don't mind people giving their opinion, but now you are just being toxic.

    Woops ><

    Anyway you might have to edit your post, I'm considering decreasing all the tresholds to make it easier to reach.

    double the cost as prior hit events 

    So... did you read my post?

    Yes the cost "doubled", but also the cards are more than twice easier to farm than they used to be.

    Shall I remind how many NYCs were redeemed on the first years?

    1722 NYCs were redeemed on 2018. And that included all the years prior since it was the first NYC event.

    Wanna know how many were redeemed during Christmas 2021?

    More than 5,000.

    And that was not even half of what dropped that year.

     

    Technically we could as well have it "1 NYC for +80 hit".

    But make NYC drop rates abysmal.

    Is that what you want?

    If you are going to complain about the prices, at least consider the difficulty of the drop as well if you wanna stay relevant.

     

    Quote

    and a black hole raffle that's only obvious purpose is to deplete nyc. Yeah we farmed too many so now you get rid of it. That's what this is and everyone knows it.

    No one forces anyone to spend anything in the raffle.

    (I guess 90 hit stuff is worthless though)

     

    Quote

     I knew when ya'll were taking so long it was because some of us dedicated the entire event to farming nyc. 

    Excuse me?

    The only thing I was waiting for was Larva's approval because there is a consequent priceless rewards list.

    If a player has 10,000 now then they had 8000 last year and 5000 the year before that.

    Then good, they can add 5,000 hit to their stuff.

    The problem remains, if old NYCs aren't used anymore, then what is the point to have them?

  16. NEW YEAR CARDS 2023

     

    It is now possible to redeem your New Year Cards!

     

     

    Some history, feel free to skip.

     

    First of all... Thanks to everyone for not asking me everyday about NYCs, I appreciate :'D (got asked 4 times on the first day but then it was relatively calm).

    Some of you may remember, I decided to make some use of NYC for the first time in 2018.

    Before that, NYC were totally useless, and the only response ever given to "What are NYC used for?" was

    "To wish your friends a happy new year".

    Since then, I've made a different event for NYCs every year.

    And every year, the NYCs became easier and easier to farm.

    This was in order NOT to make it unfair between the new players and old veterans who keep saving their NYCs from previous Christmas events. And that is also the reason why I always suggested everyone to use their NYCs as long as they see an use in it, and never think that way "Okay that's cool but I'm expecting something better next year so I will save my NYCs for now".

    I only did one mistake: that is the NYC drop rate on Gulgus-Gue during Christmas Event 2021.

    My idea was to make NYCs farmable in every level (that does not already involve an Olga Flow) but I miscalculated the top ratio of Gulgus-Gues that you can farm in a given time.

    So I had to nerf Gulgus-Gue drop rate by a 1.8 factor this year, and this is the only time NYC drop rate ever got nerfed (while all the other 9 NYC locations drop rates were slightly buffed).

    I don't know if I will keep doing NYC events every year, but in any case we'll need to empty the server of them now. Making them any easier will just result in a hassle to store your hundreds of NYCs and services prices increases.

    It is hard to make things balanced as it changes every year, and make it so everyone can get something cool (regarding the huge disparities between players...) instead of just the rich ones.

     

     

    So back to the main subject:

    For this 6th New Year Cards edition, 3 services are available.

     

     

     

    :gem2: HIT ADDITION :gem2:

     

    Redeem 10 NYC to add 5% hit on any of your weapons

    • Cannot exceed 80% hit
    • No attributes relocation
    • Can reset any attribute to 0% if needed / wanted
    • Cannot be added to ES weapons (commonly referred as "S-rank weapons")

     

     

     

    :gem4: SPECIAL ADDITION :gem4:

     

    Redeem 15 NYC to add or change the Special of your choice

    • Must be a weapon that has no default special
    • ES weapons are excluded
    • Only common specials can be added (no Zalure etc)

     

    As a reminder, here are the available high tier specials:

    • Hell (one hit kill)
    • Chaos (confusion)
    • Blizzard (ice element)
    • Burning (fire element)
    • Tempest (electric element)

    • Charge (meseta sacrifice)

     

     

     

    :gem1: SUPER RAFFLE :gem1:

     

    It's been since the first NYC event in 2018 that we didn't do a raffle.

    But unlike that one, this time there is NO LIMIT on how many NYCs you can bid into the raffle, however you are allowed only ONE REWARD MAX per person.

    SonicTeam Armor (1,000+) (24) Smoochum [received]

     

    Parentheses mean said number must be bidden by the community for the prize to be available.

    Example: Slicer of Fanatic 100h isn't a possible prize if the community bid less than 5,000 NYCs.

     

    The total number of bidden NYCs will not be public, so it is pointless to wait and see where this gets before you bid.

     

    Whenever you hand NYCs to us for the raffle, make sure to tell us your Forum name.

    If the profile does not exist, you will not be able to claim your prize.

    You will automatically get attributed a range of ticket numbers.

    On March, I will roll random numbers live on Ultima official discord between 1 and the last attributed number.

    The order of these numbers decides the order from which players are to pick their prize.

    If a generated number lands on a player who already won something, it gets ignored.

    This goes on until all rewards are depleted or there are no more participants.

     

    You are not allowed to have other people bid your own NYCs as separate persons.

     

    CONSOLATION PRIZES
    You will receive some Donation Tickets if you bid more than 77 NYC but were not lucky enough to get any of the above rewards.
    Consolation prize is calculated from the following:

    DTs = ⌊(X-70)/8⌋ with X the number of NYC you bid.
    Examples:

    - You bid 63 NYCs, got no reward. Not eligible for consolation prize.

    - You bid 524 NYCs, got no reward. Receive 56 DTs as consolation prize.

     

     

    You have until February, 28th of 2023 to place bids for the raffle.

    You have until October, 31st of 2023 to redeem hit or specials.

    ATTENTION: All New Year Cards will get erased after these, so make sure to use ALL OF THEM.

     

    Feel free to ask a GM (mostly Fyrewolf5 or R-78) for NYC redeems.

    (Remember I'm much more responsive on Discord R-78#0078)

    If you wish to redeem Donation Tickets as well, let we know so we can do all at the same time.

     

    Do not wait for the last day to redeem your NYCs with a GM, we won't be responsible for your loss if you cannot catch a GM in the last minutes.

     

     

     

    Any question, feel free to ask here or via PM.

    I suggest make the recipe with Proof of Sonic Team instead of stellar shard because no one wants to use SS for this instead of Neutron or MF

    I don't think we're going to change any combination.

    If it's possible, add a sound effect to the mag timer. It's one of the most useful commands for newer players/players feeding mags while trying to be efficient about feeding them during quests, but if you afk feed (as tons of people do), it would be nice to have something you can hear from another room.

    Good stuff

    Sometimes Shiida (maybe others) does a thing where, for example, "If I can see 5 different section ID chairs in Lobby 5 I'll activate HH." This kicks ass and is great community engagement. So much more of that would be great. 

    I do that only for the fun. I never expect people to actually fail, because I know how that could be frustrating to miss on a happy hour.

    Ever considered a balance patch? Something to bring some overlooked weapons up to par, nerf some OP ones, etc?

    Nerfing long time weapons has always been a touchy subject so I avoid getting into that.

     

    Quote

    This might not be possible, but anyway, here's an idea:

    A shop were you can exchange good semi-rares with 50 hit for a small amount of PDs.

    Example
    LAVIS CANNON [x/x/xx|50] - 5 pds
    OPHELIE SEIZE [x/x/x/x|50] - 4 pds
    FROM THE DEPTHS  - 5 pds 

    That is technically "possible" it would be a HUGE hassle to script such a quest and define the value of every single item.

  18. There is nothing dangerous about that command, it just lets you use a 5th bank per account that is shared between all your 4 characters.

    So you didn't do anything wrong using /bank.

    I can still see items in every bank of your GC, so can you be more specific about what you've lost?

    A moins que ce ne se soit produit sur un autre compte que 42220724 ?
