V501 gives a 1.5x multiplier to instant death (Dim to Hell) specials, while the one for V502 is 2.0x

Otherwise they are identical.

What's the difference between a v501 and a v502?

v501 boosts paralysis, confuse, freeze, and hell specials by 1.5x

v502 boosts paralysis, confuse, and freeze specials by 1.5x and hell specials by 2x

Casts also get a 30% boost to freeze, paralysis confuse, and kings special in ultimate difficulty.

So for example, say enemy has 50 edk, and hell has 93% proc rate.

(93% - 50 edk) = 43% chance to kill if hit with nothing on

[(93% - 50 edk) x1.5] = 64.5% chance to kill if hit with v501 on

[(93% - 50 edk) x 2] = 86% chance to kill if hit with v502 on

Or for arrest, say enemy has 50 esp, and arrest has 80% proc rate.

(80% - 50 esp) = 30% chance to arrest if hit with nothing on

[(80% + 30%)- 50 esp] = 60% chance to arrest if hit with nothing on as android

[(80% - 50 esp) x 1.5]= 45% chance to arrest if hit with v501/v502 on

{[(80% + 30%) - 50 esp] x 1.5} = 90% chance to arrest if hit with v501/v502 on as android

What is pod? Is it a quest? I have not been able to find any info here or on psoworld for Kondrieu, as far as I know he is a rare boss in ep 4 sub desert. Would like to try this 'pod' for a chance at Kondrieu.

PoD is the Point of Disaster quest in ep 4. It is found under the Ultima Category. When doing PoD, instead of encountering Saint Milion the regular ep 4 boss, you encounter Shambertin, a much stronger version of the ep 4 boss specific only to PoD quest whom is also extra buffed on this server. Kondrieu is the rare monster version of the ep 4 boss, he randomly spawns whenever you fight the ep 4 boss, regardless of quest or lack thereof.

Kondreiu has green crystals, a very thick horned skull, and has the same elemental resists as Saint Milion (red crystals, webbed-like mouth gills), and also not nearly as strong as Shambertin (the PoD only ep 4 boss, blue crystals, smallish spiral face horns) since Shamby is buffed here but Kondy is not.

I see, thankyou! So would it be better to just do regular Sub Desert, or pod to get him to spawn?

PoD is the fastest way to an ep 4 boss by far (Shambertin or rare spawn Kondrieu), a fast run can be as short as 10-15 minutes.

Government 9-8 is the fastest way to get to Saint Milion (still has chance of Kondrieu), the regular ep 4 boss, it's a 30-40+ minute quest.

Regular sub desert is highly unadvised, it can take you more than 1hr+ to reach the boss (Saint Milion or Kondrieu).

Currently Saint Milion drops the Blood Sword for summer event, a powerful spirit saber for forces. Pinkal id is the only confirmed id so far. He may drop the Soul Booster to make 100 souls on some other id, nothing confirmed yet. If you wish to get one of these, I recommend you complete the government quests up to 9-8 on normal to unlock for all difficulties, which should only take about 2 or so hours, regular sub-desert is not worth running. If you just want Kondrieu and don't care about the blood sword / soul booster do PoD.

Thankyou so much for the info! Actually not after any of those, just lookin for a Principal's Gift Parasol.

In that case, if you don't care about getting one with stats you can also get one from Black Paper Deal 1 Very Hard Rappy Route. It costs 1 photon crystal to play the quest (ep 4 one player mode) and you can get the crystals from any ep 4 rare monster on normal or hard (dorphon eclair, pazuzu, merissa aa). MA4DMD quest has set spawns, and the 5th dorphon is always a dorphon eclair, so it's possible to spam that quest to farm up a few pc to play bpd with.
