    Donations Item list?

    in Phantasy Star Online BB General

    Posted

    1) Donation list can be access from navigation bar under "Donations" > "Item Donation List" on the top right of every page.

    2) The items are intentionally overpriced to promote trading.  If you're just looking for high level techs, you can normally get lv1-27 free and lv28-29 for a handful of pd from other players.  That being said tech damage falls off very fast, so you might be better off looking for good gear instead.

    Quality thread.  Not sure I can even name them all, but the names that come to mind right away

    @griffeni pulled me into the game.  I started out like anyone else.  Around the 2nd week I was getting ready to quit, but griffeni talked to me in lobby one day and decided to invite me to his team.  That sense of community kept me involved and really made me enjoy the game.

    @Mayte was the one of the first people who I really befriended on the game.  I really enjoyed how she would help me get better, especially with my goal to duo RoCT.  We ended up doing it, though she did most of the work.  She really helped me become as invested in the game as I was.  I wanted to help people like she helped me.

    @TripleR Just as Mayte helped me get good at the game, RRR really challenged me to become the best I could.  We loved to TA, and took the only record for duo PPP, and tested multiple new RoCT strategies.  I can wholeheartedly say that he kept me playing the game for at least an extra year.

    @Soly really helped me get into modding.  He helped me an insurmountable amount, especially with testing.

    @Saber +7 was also a good friend.  The first one to spill over into real life.

     

    I am defiantly forgetting people, but it's 2am and I am ready for bed.

    DMC

    in Server Development

    Posted

    Dmc is a product of the protocol that aega developed for interclient communication.  Each client tells the other clients how much damage was dealt to what monster.  However this causes race conditions to occur when two clients unknowingly change the same monster.  This is what players call dmc and causes desync, since the monster then exists in two different states depending on client latency.  To fix this peoblem clients send ‘kill’ packets to inform other clients when a monster has died.  These will trigger the death regardless lf current hp.

     

    The problem with removing dmc like you are suggesting isn’t quite as shimple as you’d think.  It would require an entire overhaul of the clients engine and the designing of an entire new protocol. I don’t know what Ephinea did, so I won’t comment on their fix.

    Hello everyone. I don't know how to play this game at all, to tell you the truth, but I did hear about this game.

    Feel free to PM me any questions you have.  You might find these links helpful. This is the layout for keyboard controls.

    I somehow missed your post earlier.

    1. The ability to add hit to gear using pds and ps through gallons shop.  Even if it was only up to 50hit on an item would be really nice.  maybe 1ps =10hit and 50pds=5hit. cap it at 50 so there is still a need for hit events which cap at 70 and donating to cap at 80.

    This would be cool, but I don't think it will work.  For one, I'm much too rusty at qedit to make it myself.  And at the rate you can farm PD from WoI, 1pd to 10h is absurdly easy.  Because of this it would be extremely hard to price.

     

    The other two suggestions I have no opinion on.

    hotkeys?

    For future people who find this topic, to set the number bar hotkeys:

    1. Open the customize menu.
    2. Select any pallet location (you don't have to change it if you don't want to).
    3. Hover over an action.
    4. Press the number you wish to bind it to. That number will appear next to it. It is now bound.

    And how do I obtain the Samba Maracas/Fiesta?

    Samba Maracas is a reward for completing the quest Raid on Central Tower in ultimate mode.  It's a random item from a short list, or a pd.  weapons come with 0-80% in 1 attribute.

    It's turned into a Samba Fiesta with a Harmonic Resonance Core, which is a Easter Event drop.  You can replace it with Slicer of Fanatic or TypeME/Mechguns [Demons] until you work your way up to it.

     

    I'd recommend starting with a Glide Divine and ask around if someone will give you level 30 shifta / deband / jellen / zalure.  (NEVER PAY FOR THESE).  Then use Glide to tag the whole room of enemies and wait for your team to kill them.  Unfortunately, battlemage fo is kinda expensive to build since many of the items used are event drops, and hit is very important.

    Welcome to the server!

    Ladies in the center of the lobby allow you to organize a party, which can be solo mode if you want, or multi mode.  You can also set a password on your 'room' as they're called to only let people you want to join in.

    To get to quests, there is a lady behind a counter in the room you originally spawn in (once you are in a room).  Solo mode quest unlock as you complete them.  However, unlike past versions of the game, instead of unlocking the next area's quests by defeating the boss solo, you need to complete the Government Quests.  These are only available in multi-mode by taking the green warp to the presidents office and talking to momoka, the girl in the pink dress.  You do not need more than 1 person for these quests, so if you want to do them alone, just add a password to the room and don't tell anyone what it is.

    To go down to the planet into one of the free roam areas, take the blue warp.  All areas are initially unlocked, and increase in difficulty as you go down the list.

     

    Don't be afraid of other people on the server.  The vast majority are amazing people and many are willing to help.  Either by taking you through an area or by donating old gear.

    I hope you enjoy your time here.  If you ever need anything feel free to send me a Private Message.

    Put Samba Maracas instead of Samba Fiesta

    This is my Battlemage Fomarl build that I've found to be very streamlined.  I find that between Glide and Maracas I rarely have to use other weapons.  If I need single target damage for a boss, Lindcray works.  If I need multi target damage for a hoard, Banana Cannon works.  But most of the time, if your party is good, you'll be casting Zalure, then using Mechs to demon that monster your teammates aren't targeting.  Frankly, I'm thinking of banking the Banana Cannon all together.  I rarely use it.


    Glide Divine
    Samba Fiesta
    Lindcray
    Banana Cannon *for when you're the carry
    Tyrell's Gift Parasol
    Sonic Team Armour (Kroes or Wedding Dress if you don't have this)
    Cure/Confuse *This tends to be my favorite cure unit, I find it's the most common status effect.  But Cure/Paralysis would also be good here.
    Smartlink
    Centurion/Battle
    v801 *for when you're the support
    v502 *for when you're the carry
    Guardian Angel Costume
    Agent K Costume *For when you're team is using Dark Flow
