    Thanks for the responses!

    Yeah I can see your points too. I just thought by recent observation one just sometimes feel a bit sorry for them you know lol and I find giving them just the right items, boosts their moral and motivation to keep on going; if they're seeing a slow and arduous future ahead of them lol. 

    I agree that people can usually provide some nice treats for the new comers; some more luckier then others of course. I just find a bit of battle speed, some extra starting strength from a Mag and Unit, and a shield/barrier; acting as a reward when reaching a certain level requirement; wets their appetite for more and gives them some of that unconditional 'Ultima server love', whilst perhaps feeling a lot more useful soloing and in multiplayer games.

    People tend to stick around when they have a bit of luck; either receiving kind donations from higher level players or drops from monsters etc... A little starting point boost might attract newer or older players out of retirement that might want to start playing PSOBB again but think; "I don't want to go through; this, this and that". Whilst if they see a fair general boost in speed and a little pow  dedicated to their class (nothing 'game breaking for newcomers' and 'multiple account making' for those who want to abuse the free stuff'), they might think alright seems fair enough.

    As I said: I personally choose this server because of the kind incentives it offers in EXP and Droprates, aswell I'm enjoying the community here. I've spent thousands of hours in the past doing it the sega-style meticulous and vigorous way, the game should still be rewarding and requires grinding of course (can't be easy mode I know) but attracting more players is one thing, but making them stay and be part of the community is another and whilst this idea may or may not work, it was just a thought it mind. :D

    But yeah I can understand both perspectives!

    I'm curious is it possible to create a 'newbie pack' for the new comers to the server?

    Like within their new character (1 per account or something I dunno), there could be the following extra items to help new comers (will list below). I'm not specifically speaking about old PSO players coming here who have extensive knowledge, applicability and the know-how on getting things done but for those one's who somehow found out about PSO and want to give it a try but might get put off after putting in several hours by it because of the lack of party games, people online, help etc... And they're struggling just to get to hard and see it being to arduous to carry on, whilst they could spend their time elsewhere.

    Now, I came to this server like couple of weeks back and was fortunate to come when the EXP was x5 and the rare monster rate was generous, which enabled me to solo for some stuff, level up to get me up to a decent playable standard where I'd felt strong enough to hunt more difficult rares by soloing. Granted a few trades here, and there for stuff I couldn't get on my ID (or struggle at the time) like the main units to have on a character and a generous gift of Glide Divine 0.00 <3; provided me the opportunity to make my characters have decent gear; though I have put the hours in so to speak (gets addicting xD).

    Now, nothing game breaking or anything but just an incentive to keep on playing by giving them a taste of what is to come.

    Some low star cheap rare or whatever
    HU/RA/FO Field/Frame - 4 Slots
    God/Battle, God/Arm/Mind/Pow
    HU/RA/FO Wall 

    Ultima Mag (the Yahoo Mag) (either level like 50/100/150/200)

     

    *Frame 2/4 slot to get them equipping those units
    *Depending on class HU/RA/FO will dictate either Field/Wall. Nice reward for them getting up to the level requirements, and its a good standard class-pack equip.
    *God/Battle for all characters (even FO's)

    *Depending on class HU/RA/FO will dictate either God/Arm/Mind/Pow

    *Mag unit will give them that extra strength.

    Whilst one could say they're missing the opportunity and beauty of starting fresh and that connection you have with your character at the beginning etc... Whilst that's awesome and all, in most case scenario can be crushed by getting someone to TTF rush you to 20 in a run or two. Also, this game is like decades years old and what I love about the little perks of this server is that it understand people don't want to be spending a life time to level up in a Sega-fashion but generously level up at their own pace and still come out decent. Its why I stopped playing Ephinea (when I got that urge to play PSOBB again) and came straight here. I spent 2 hours and a bit getting to 10 or so, took the same amount of time to get to 20+ and I was already enjoying and finding shit lol.

    Also I understand the last thing you want is people creating multitude accounts to cash in on those free items, which is why I left them as god units which are easy enough to find, around 0.5-1pd, outclassed by heavenly and cent units etc.... I found so many God/body's whilst hunting during the rare enemy rate I had to leave them on the floor. Now Yahoo/Ultima Mag is your standard ugly Wii-fit like board with no photon blasts. So this stale uninviting to look at acts as motivation (and advertisement for the server) to start a new mag with photon blasts and something you actually like the look off etc, whilst you progress from normal to ultimate atleast. Now its probably best it isn't 200, and have it around level 50 with something like 20 in dex and 25 in pow/mind depending on class and that 5 in def as usual etc... These mags are easy enough to feed and fast too, but it gives the newbie the incentive to feed to get stronger, and understand about mags etc...

    Not to sure if this is possible etc, but something I thought whilst helping  a few new people. I had some stuff to provide for them but I think a nice server incentive might attract players to the server and atleast make them stay or experience some sort of PSO experience. 

    Thanks :D

    Opened 21 up. Some items were from the 'Normal Easter Eggs' and I had some from the 'Ultimate Easter Eggs' that was listed. The items above weren't listed in either category but I am suspecting they might have been last years or whatever?

    ID is Redria if it helps but I doubt it.

    The merges are the same as Sega's, but we've instead added several other shields into the game that boost techs. There are things like Three Seals (25% ra- techs, vhard delbiter skyly/redria 1/214), Virus Shield Vol Opt (20% gi-tech, +10ata, drops in this easter event), Hylian Shield (100% grants, 75% rafoie, 60% razonde, +1techlevels, 35edk, drops in Triforce Event after summer), and many of the halloween costumes (Red Ring + Halo Soul = progressive costumes with RR stats + some bonus; Bunny Costume = Jellen/Zalure, Catscratch = Shifta/Deband, Guardian Angel = Resta/Anti, Minecraft Costume = Megid Pierce, other costumes do other things). We've also made the elemental cloak line into 30% element boost (Ignition Cloak, Congeal Cloak, Tempest Cloak), and some other armors have tech boosts added too like sue's coat and godric's cloak. We also have different tech boosts on our weapons probably, like psycho wand is 45% ra- techs, and there is also the much stronger Psycho Bridge (Dark Bridge + Proof of Sonic Team, 85% rafoie/razonde 95% rabarta). Many of the regular merges also drop during christmas event, so you don't necessarily have to go box hunting for amplifiers.

    Hiya, thanks for the reply.

    Ah, I see what you mean. I guess it gives the opportunity to use those stronger shields and acquiring them is more difficult too.

    So three seals always drops from vhard Delbiter; that's good to know! Hylian Shield and Psycho Bridge are pretty beast.

    I see, there's quite a bit of differences and new stuff. Cool, any way of getting more precise information to refer back too, like a page with it all on?

    *Curious, any system that puts Level 200's 'supposely exp' to some good use? PSO2 has a system where current cap players still get rewarded (minor but its something). Any system in place that  can trade/swap junk rares for PD's, Mats or something? Ty.

    Just started over the weekend. Haven't played PSO (schthacks) since like alpha PSO2 back in 2012 or so.

    Anyways, not sure if its on this server but what I loved from Schthacks was that they merged the technique boosting shields into one and changed the %'s.

    So:

    Jellen + Zellure range by 200% =  Segaienure Merge

    Anti + Resta boosted range by 200% = Healing Merge
    Shifta + Deband boosted range by 200% = Megistrade Merge
    Ra techniques by 40%  = RA Merge

    Gi techniques by 60% = Gi Merge

    Si techniques by 100% = Si Merge

    Boost grants by 75%, Megid Piercing = Yin-Yang Merge

    Do this server have something similar or is it the same as Sega's?
