SPECIAL 4TH ANNIVERSARY HUNT

 

Something evil escaped from below!

Destiny PSOBB presents a special enemy: Tormentorr!

Watch out, they have much more power than normal Hildetorrs, have access to different techs, are faster and are 2 times larger.

Skin by @Shiva

AI by @Magictrick

Instead of replacing hildetorrs server wide, they only appear in one quest. Find them in Forest Offensive (Episode 1 / Destiny). All other quests still have normal hildetorrs.

 

4th Anniversary Orb (LIMITED)

 

"This orb can alter the 
appearance of certain 
items. Obtained during 
Destiny PSOBB 4th 
Anniversary."

 

Drops from Tormentorr on All Ids on ultimate difficulty @ 1/35.

Keep in mind the anniversary orb is a limited item, temporarily available and will not return.

Like orb of illusions, 4th anniversary orb will change only aesthetics. The animation, stats and ablities etc are unchanged. That said, Act of War has special bullets and Twin Executioner special has a new effect. And Terror Sawd is actually 20% bigger than a normal chain sawd.

Here are the new combinations (click on the images for better quality):

 

4th Anniversary Orb + Stormrender  = Twin Executioner

 

 

4th Anniversary Orb + Christmas Spirit  = Act of War (suggested by @Lipelis)

 

4th Anniversary Orb + Rathalos Greatsword +15  = Terror Sawd

 

Twin executioner animation:

Part 2 is now live. It will last 2 weeks (january 19th)

Happy Anniversary and we hope you enjoy part 2 of Xmas!

Available for the whole event (4 weeks)

Xmas Theme
Special thanks to @Shiva for an amazing Xmas theme, including an awesome festive chair, winter atmosphere throughout ragol, and an epic lobby.

 

Xmas Catastrophe
The quest Xmas Catastrophe is enabled under Episode 1 / VR. This is a fun little quest in mines where you help hopkins. You are able to get 2 materials as a reward in the end on very hard, 3 on ultimate. So if you're short on materials on your character or looking to build a stash, here's your chance.

 

Xmas drops

Christmas Spirit (limited edition Xmas only!) (Dark Falz: Redria / Oran / Pinkal)
"It's that special time of the year. Time to spread the love!"

• Shot Animation
• Launches a volley of 3 candy canes per shot to a single target
• Spirit special
• Ability to hit moving/flying targets without missing
• Hunter/Ranger/Force!

 

 

PGF
Don't have a dark weapon yet? Now is the time to hunt the most wanted combine item in PSO. The droprate for Parasitic Gene "Flow" has been lowered to 1/146 for the duration of the XMAS event.

 

ORB OF ILLUSIONS

"This orb can transform photons around an object, in order to alter its appearance."

Drops from:

• Vol Opt: Redria / Oran
• Gal Gryphon: Skyly / Purplenum
• Saint Million/Kondrieu: Bluefull /  Pinkal / Oran

Can be used on certain weapons and armor to change its appearance and name. Everything else is identical to the original item.

 

Orb of Illusion combinations:

Spoiler

Orb of Illusions + Grave Digger = Nefarious Needle

 

 

Orb of Illusions + Behemoth Armor = Evil Aura

 

 

Orb of Illusions + Ultimate Double Cannon (on humar/hunewearl) = Lavis Storm

 

 

Orb of Illusions + Ultimate Double Cannon (on hucast/hucaseal) = Double Fury

 

Orb of Illusions + Cataclysm Shield = Hellfire Shield

 

Orb of Illusions + Three Seals = Profound Darkness

 

x10 XP & Free Section ID 
For the entire event!

 

Special thanks to the amazing Destiny Staff for all the hard work. 

Enjoy and MERRY XMAS!

hello. part 2 is launch?

[gesseluis 147]

[Nemesis 24]

hi, is today the beginning of Part 2?

[Magic 1537]

There have been a lot of changes to the code to make this possible, and sadly there are still some unexpected technical issues that I have to fix. I plan to launch part 2 tomorrow but it might be monday or absolute worst case tuesday. Rest assured we're working hard to launch it ASAP, and part 2 will still last the full 2 weeks.

Here's a little sneak peek.

[Nemesis 24]

I can't wait to discover these novelties. Thank you for this taste. You have our full support.

Forgot to credit you in the post for the idea. I hope you like it! It was BY FAR the hardest to make, that absolute karen of a weapon has the most hardcoded elements of any weapon in the game... It's actually one of the reasons part 2 was delayed so long lol because it kept crashing randomly.

And it still isn't perfect, it still lacks the sound and muzzle flash. I might add that in later. But the animation works flawlessly. Also don't forget to check out the bullets sometime ingame. Pretty proud of those.  

[Lipelis 327]

Leeeeet's go @Magictrick 
#hyped

[Piv 403]

Outstanding work!

Thank you for the hard work team Destiny

[HHawk4 278]

yoooo, twin executioner looking SICK

[VEL(JP) 1238]

that laser bullet looks so dope!

[gesseluis 147]

I really liked the items, the ''new stormrender'' exceeded all expectations it was amazing, the new ''xmas spirit'' super hitech, the horror, I didn't change it, because I like Rathalos a lot. congratulations again for all the effort, I'm spreading a lot about the server showing this new experience that this timeless game can bring.

[Magic 1537]

Part 2 is now over, and with that, xmas 2021 event has ended.

Thanks all for playing, and we hope you enjoyed the event!

[Mr Majestyk 3]

Returning Destiny player, thanks for the event it has been a blast. I have had the best experience in many years playing PSO over the last few weeks here. Found some amazing items from the anniversary crates Very well done to all who made this event possible.
