  1. First, your mag is perfect for no class, whether on this server or another, and is therefore no great tradebait. But secondly and on a more positive note, mind mags on this server are used to nuke more, heal more or learn more techs. With the proper mat and unit plans, the only definitive (although to be frequently swapped with a melee mag according to circumstances) mags, therefore of great values, have for this server 185 mind for the fonewm and 175 mag for the fonewearl. No other lv200 character needs one. They only have a temporary use, and can be usually loaned to other players.

  2. Well if you take it this way...

    A 195 POW mag, a V101 and 3 Heavenly/arms in a 4-slotted frame. You spam dragon in TTF and that's it... or you might also want a mind mag if you get bored of it and want to take an ep4 break (not that nuking is useless elswhere but to gross the trait)

  3. Exactly, Choko. That is also what I was thinking.

    Also, a mind mag before lv200 and all those mind mats whenever you find yourself in a situation where nuking is preferable.

    Good luck with your fomar, Kiryu.

  4. The negative statuses happen very rarely to the wielder; you can play for dozens of minutes without one happening to you. Besides, only Paralysis, which is solved by a simple Sol Atomizer, is really annoying. The other two are nothing. Plus the HP cost is half what it is with the Psycho Wand, which means that it's perfectly manageable for any force.

    You wanted a special that allowed you to speedrun RT? Like Gizonde+200% to make it as efficient as the DM and the DB? Cheers, you'll go with much less boring ways.

    Even if you have a Bringer's Rifle and a lnk38, Grants is actually still useful due to its range and convenient aiming, as it makes killing faster in certain cases. Maybe that 10% boost will actually make a difference (not with Girtablublues though, a Slicer of Fanatic is better against that, nor with Epsilon since 3 Demon specials from, ideally, a bringer's rifle, will make even a non-boosted Grants fatal anyway). As for Megid, I assure you that even if it's rare, Megiding 3 aligned EP4 lizards feels good; and in the forest, there are cases when it's really the fastest way to kill. So for what some people said regarding the usefulness of piercing Megid, I completely disagree and beg to differ; some enemies WILL be aligned pretty often i certain areas. Try and you will see that Seabed, and CCA, Spaceship... a few other cases in the game... become much easier. Forces without piercing megid in Seabed will be annoyed, I speak from experience here (*authority argument inside*). No, really, piercing Megid is good and you might prefer to looks of the Dark Bridge to that of the Demonic Fork... and hate how hard Demonik is to find! And instead of having both Mercurius and Demonic in your inventory can be annoying and make weapon selection slower, whereas DB will take only one space. Even fonewearls will benefit from the upgrade thanks to the Grants boost.

    That it cannot substitute your other weapons is good, because it means you'll still have to adapt regularly, so that part of the fun of the game won't be terminated. Killing too fast and having too easy a time invites boredom anyway.

    Last but not least, Dark Bridge has a very unique appearence. Unlike DM and DB, it is an animated weapon, translucid, fearsome, classy... Appearences do matter. ;)

  5. For the PGF, i'm offering all of those:

    _20 hit lnk38

    _mercurius rod

    _demonic fork

    _20 PDs

    _demon needle

    _45 hit MM

    _Godric +9 with 55% hit 50/50/0/0/55

    I feel like I respected rules 1 & 2, not rule 3 for MR and DF however. Also, I dont remember where I have put my Godric +9, is it still good? ;*D))))

    hhm? ;)

  6. OMG THANK YOU FOR THE RA MERGE LARVA!

    Any idea about the ID (pun definitely intended) that drops it? :P

    Edit:To be sure. There are 4 items:

    _RA merge

    _Yellow Mege

    _Red Merge

    _Blue Ring

    from Vol Opt in Very Hard, is that it? with certain IDs dropping one of them or all IDs dropping them all randomly? I don't want to hunt for nothing G_G

    Edit (bis): Some person told me she found them with pink and red

    Edit (last time, maybe): False alert; a friend told me he found a Razonde Merge from Vol Opt, meaning it's only the 3 merges of the RA type that we find, not the RA Merge invented for Schtack...

  7. I was talking about the Saber bug not for the drops from monsters, but implying for crates. Why? Because that makes material hunts harder, meaning a rare monsters event is what we need.

    So I found a way to compensate by using my Greenhill, but please think about players who don't have one. x.x

    Also, when will we be able to see Ultima's drop chart in a separate and clear section of the forum? x.x

    This one http://www.univers-ps.com/psobb/drops/drops_normal.php is awesome, easy to have access to, readable and detailed.

    I want one like that here. T.T

  8. Since the Saber bug is here in Ultima, the only viable way to hunt materials is, I was thinking, to take advantage of a rare monsters event so as to gather them in normal mode of diffictulty. So today there is one, so I was happy and all. Seeing this drop charts http://brownskiii.tripod.com/id8.html i took my oran to gather mind materials from Al Rappies, but I got an HP mat instead.

    I can already hear you replying "that chart is for Schtack not Ultima", but you already said that it was accurate for the most part. x.x

    Now I know what "for the most part" means, but then could we see a good one? x.x

    How the hell am I going to gather mind materials now? x.x

    Post addition: now instead of power mats from hildeblues, I'm getting General//mind units T.T

    And yes, I killed several so it really was on the 7/8 drop slots.

    And yes, I checked, I'm indeed Oran ID section running in forest normal diff. x.x

  9. I'm sorry about bothering you with this, but the same thing that happened to Tikal's mags has just happened to me: I feed a mag coming from another character, which makes it evolve without changing its stats at first (this is probably what causes the bug though, so i'll avoid doing it in the future) and there you go; after Iogging out and in again, it's stats have changed.

    GC number: 42016948

    Here was the mag before I gave it to another of my chars:

    And the disaster...

    So it appears it is safer to feed a mag with only one character, as much as possible.

    Thank you for your attention.
