I knew when ya'll were taking so long it was because some of us dedicated the entire event to farming nyc. I even encouraged others to do the same.
You farmed something, and suggested other people farm the same, when you had no idea what the reward was going to be.

Probably sell for about 20pd each

I do indeed. I'd say 5pds each? No idea how much they're really worth.

Black King Bar was always my favourite weapon when I played on GameCube.
L&K38 is probably the coolest looking weapon, though.
Edit: Here it is really poorly reskinned in black

Ever considered a balance patch? Something to bring some overlooked weapons up to par, nerf some OP ones, etc? It'd give people more choice in what they go after instead of only having one or two items from each holiday being actually useful.

Oh boy, my favourite event! Can't wait to farm more L&K38 Combats!

Thank you for the timestamps and the condescending dismissal of the idea.

Do you have a timestamp for the video? Not interested in watching ten minutes of it.
Whilst it may come up in TA, I've not seen anyone use it in normal gameplay in all the time I've been playing PSO. When locked, it's outclassed by almost any other long range weapon.
I'd also point out my idea was using a combo item on an L&K, meaning the original would still be in the game to use however you wanted. It honestly annoys me that most of the arguments people make were addressed in the numerous posts I've made about the item. People just look at it as "hurr durr unlock the L&K because it'd be awesome LOLOL".

The idea had been to have it's ATP nerfed into the ground, either 0 or more likely 1, as weapons don't tend to play nice at 0ATP for some reason. The idea would that it'd be less powerful than say, Psycho Ravens, but allow for long-range disposal of flowers for the female cast classes and a couple of others. This would give them a slight edge over the HUcast in that they could stay safer at range and not have to get close to the insta-kill shots. The piss-poor aim it has (if the target moves, it can't lock on to them for some reason) means that it wouldn't become the new meta gun to have, but simply slot into a hunter's toolkit for a niche purpose.

Well, you once suggested a really interesting stuff about lead admins right, so other GMS would have more power to give final decisions regarding the Ultima right?
Larva totally ignored you, if I remember correct.If memory serves, he actually took it personally and refused to do anything about it, instead of doing the mature thing and actually, y'know, delegating shit he doesn't want to do in the first place. But yes, the outcome was about the same.
8 minutes ago, Yannv said:What I'm trying to say is that this is all pointless. is it ALWAYS the same problem, staff members have great ideas, which doesn't get the approval of Larva. What is the point of complaining about the same thing for years? Hence I say if you don't like Ultima how it currently is, I wouldn't put hopes in it changing. I already learned that.
Honestly, yes. It's why I don't really play any more because why would I put effort into a server that's going nowhere? I stick around for the community, even though I still enjoy the game. It's too demoralising playing and investing in a steadily sinking ship.
12 minutes ago, Yannv said:Except that you know he have some clear mental issues, high level of autism and uses heavy drugs; remember him saying that multiple times. So I don't agree that the words from someone with autism, Alzheimer or some other kind of mental issues have the same weight as words from someone 100% sane.
This, I disagree with. I don't think anyone should have to put up with slurs and abuse from someone with those issues, whereas it'd be completely unacceptable from someone without the same issues. A community shouldn't have to suffer because of one person's issues. It's not fair on them.
15 minutes ago, Yannv said:Telling someone in such conditions to go commit a suicide is totally unnaceptable in my opinion.
I agree.

most of you should be ashamed for wasting so much time offending a staff member in shoutbox
Didn't realise it was against server rules to "offend a staff member". Maybe people in a position of responsibility need thicker skins?

19 minutes ago, Yannv said:It would be just easier if you guys just ignored Wilson, didn't give him attention on serious matters
Difficult when he inserts himself into any conversation, even ones that don't concern him.
20 minutes ago, Yannv said:His opinions (Emewn) might not have been according to "human rights" but still he didn't commit any crime and as far as I know he does have the right to voice his shitty opinions, you like it or not
a) he denied the Holocaust, which is at least enough to get you arrested in Germany. Additionally, the internet is not a safe space to spew racist and sexist bile, and websites reserve the right to ban you if they find what you're saying to be against their values.
22 minutes ago, Yannv said:He doesn't owe us anything or is even get paid
No staff member gets paid, this is a non-issue and doesn't need to be brought up. He volunteered for the position knowing it's unpaid, you can't whine about how hard done by he is because he isn't getting money.
24 minutes ago, Yannv said:Most new quests, optimizations and a few other game improvements people unfortunately don't care about, came to Ultima all thanks to him.
I would love some citation for this, because I just don't believe it. At all.
24 minutes ago, Yannv said:Liking him or not, it was thanks to him that Ultima moved a little forward in the right direction in the past years.
What's actually changed because of him? We have generally less players, no new items that he's had a hand in designing... what does he do?
25 minutes ago, Yannv said:But I believe we should all be glad that someone still cares to run a server of a such old game
There's like four different public servers going for this game. It's not like this is the last bastion of PSO standing against the darkness.
26 minutes ago, Yannv said:TL;DR, this topic is pointless. We should like Ultima for what it is
"Let's not discuss or suggest changes to improve it, just like it or lump it."
27 minutes ago, Yannv said:what the server is currently now is the best it could be, given the conditions.

I disliked your event post because you didn't take the time to make it clear and concise.
Clear and concise, like "you guys won't get any rewards unless enough people submit times"?

From an objective standpoint, it's not good to have a moderator that actively gets involved in arguments, is dismissive and rude to portions of the playerbase he doesn't like, and talks disdainfully about the game as a whole except for one aspect that he approves of. Anyone coming here and seeing a mod shit-talking the game is going to be put off immediately.
If you want to fix the staff team, this is the place to start.

Soly does a ton of work behind the scenes, but he doesn't engage with the community much, nor does he decide the direction the server goes. My suggestion of lead admin is someone who actually has all the powers Larva has, and the permission to implement suggestions as they see fit. Soly has none of that, as far as I'm aware.

Lead admin role suggestion, completely ignored despite a lot of support -
-
I come back to play every so often, but when I do I want to help the server improve, and I make suggestions. And I'll spend a while thinking and testing and balancing, and make a decent length post that gets traction, and then gets shot down with literally no explanation. It's demoralising as shit.
If you asked me what Ultima's real problem is, I'd say it's because it has a garbage admin team. I'm not saying the admins are garbage, but there's no cohesion.
You have one admin who cares and puts a ton of effort in, but is stonewalled or ignored by Larva for most of their ideas. You have a mod that's actively antagonistic and dismissive of the game and the server. Other admins let things slide that would have people instantly permanently banned on any other platform I've seen. The rest of the admins are inactive completely, giving new players the perception that the staff dead is dead to begin with. And finally, you have a server owner who makes decisions on a whim, and doesn't seem to care about the server any more. I made the suggestion of a lead admin position, and guess what? It was fucking ignored.
Why bother trying to improve the server when half the people in charge literally don't care?

I kinda wanted to see that L&K38 Combat 1 ATP in action since its feature is unique but Larva said no.
Did we ever get any reason as to why? I'd be interested to hear from @Larva on this one.

An extention to this one Is Freeze and Paralyse, then kill a Death/Dark Gunner as the last monster of the current spawn
You could have made this post in a week's time, and it'd have been exactly a year since the last post. You had the opportunity, and blew it.
This frustrates me more than you can imagine.

Sadly that would only work against Mericarols because Freeze special activation depends on target's ESP and every mini boss but Mericarol has 100 ESP.
Ah, that's frustrating, I didn't know that. Potentially Hell or leaving it as Burning might be the answer then.

For the class combinations, I'd literally just considered the female casts because the male casts tend to outclass them in straight-up power. I'd definitely suggest FOs get a swing at it, seeing as they got fucked over for the Swan, and the other HUs might be good additions based on what you posted. My specific aim was to not have the male casts have access to it, especially HUcast as its only weakness at the moment is range... which Swan gives it far too much of already.
I picked PBC as a modifier because it makes things black, and I'd made the skin idea black. Anything could be used instead, and Soul Booster isn't actually a bad idea.
I will be the first to admit that my testing numbers aren't the best. I can try to get more numbers done, but my server isn't the same as Ultima.
I hadn't really considered changing the special on it, but thinking about it, there are a couple of good options you've mentioned. Hell would be an interesting option, but Blizzard appeals too. I'd originally envisioned the weapon as an Ep4 plant killer - they're (mostly) stationary and dangerous targets, and having Blizzard would add that little bit of extra safety to it. I'm not sure which would make it a more appealing weapon to the community at large.

But like i have also said mass bank wipes only keep your 30 item inventory reset the playing field i see no one has quoted that yet !
I mean, it's probably because it's a terrible idea.
If it happened right now, I'd lose my only Cent/Battle. Only got the one, so it goes in my bank for when I decide whether to play my HU or my RA. They don't drop again until... Easter? Summer? Either way, I'm going to have to buy one from someone. And I can imagine prices will shoot up, seeing as the only ones remaining will be ones people have equipped.
I'd lose about 6-7 photon spheres. These are saved up from previous events and from doing a chunk of woi this Christmas. As a mid-level player, this would put me significantly further behind people who have their weapons maxed already.
I'd lose an almost maxed Psycho Raven. 50 hit Yas9k would go. Outlaw Star, 100 A. Beast Bomb Chu, Wedding Dress, Sealed J-Sword, a couple of maxed out mags, a ton of level 30 disks, grinders, mats, body parts, Stellar Shards, POSTs, PBCs, NYCs, and whatever Weapons Crystal Badges are. And that's just off the top of my head.
Would I continue to play after losing all of that? No. I can guarantee I'd quit. But let's say that I do stick around. I'm not going to be helping newbies any more - I don't have any low level stuff to give them. I'm going to be focusing on myself. Prices are going to go up, because older players tend to have a lot of DTs stockpiled, whilst newer players don't - are you going to pay 50+ DTs for a Cent/Battle? 70+?
Apart from anything, we've seen this happen. Pretty sure it was SCHTHACK that managed to wipe its database a few years back, resulting in the unrecoverable loss of literally everyone's characters and gear. About 80% of their player base left and formed Ephinea, fracturing the tiny playerbase even more. I find it staggering that anyone stayed, personally - if someone is so irresponsible that they don't have backups, why would you trust them a second time when they've already let you down the first.
I imagine you'd get the same mass exodus here - whether to other servers or other games, people wouldn't stick around. And you wouldn't get newbies coming to a dead server.

Back when I originally posted the idea, I spent some time making a dark version of the L&K, but could never actually get it to work due to the strange way you have to import textures. I'm not super tech savvy.
This is the current L&K skin, the one below would retain the barrel colours, and the yellow bits replaced by the red. Theoretically, it should look okay.

I mean, barring it being available for HUcasts, it's exactly what I wanted. I never wanted it to be broken and OP, like the SS. I wanted it to be a weapon of choice, that people could pick or choose to use instead of it being necessary for someone's kit.
People in this server in the past have shown that what they want is stupidly broken OP weapons when they voted for SS to keep rifle range and on HUcast. I bet if you asked people if they wanted an "I Win" button, half of the server would want it implemented tomorrow.
