EASTER EVENT 2024

 

 

Time for some easter!
 

So, what's there to do???

Egg Rappies

Of course the Egg Rappies are back, dropping Easter Eggs that contain various stuff. Find the Rappies in Episode 2 Temple.

In order to make farming easter eggs less boring, from now on easter eggs also drop at 1/500 from any mob in the following quests:

• Ep1 / Easter / Lost Soul Ripper
• Ep1 / Easter / Mines Offensive
• Ep2 / Easter / Gal Da Val's Darkness

Note that this rate does not have DAR calculated in already, so the final droprate per actual killed mob is still affected by amount of players and enemy DAR. Furthermore, egg drops are completely separate from rare drops and even common drops. This means that you won't ever miss out on a rare drop because an egg dropped. However, you may occasionally encounter two items in the same spot. 

 

You can exchange Easter Eggs with a GM for a special item from the following list:

• Byakko shield - 25 Easter Eggs
• Suzaku shield - 25 Easter Eggs
• Daisy Chain - 15 Easter Eggs
• Murasame - 15 Easter Eggs
• Tension Blaster - 15 Easter Eggs
• RIANOV 303SNR-5 - 15 Easter Eggs
• Black Gear - 15 Easter Eggs
• Epsiguard - 15 Easter Eggs
• [New!] Fake Special on Weapons - 8 Easter Eggs for 1 weapon, 15 Eggs for 2 weapons (Please check @Howitzer 's post)

Note: weapons that have regular special already (DVL/zerk, Grave Digger/Demons) can't be added fake special.

Update: 'Fake Special'

Hey everyone,

We're happy to announce 'Fake Special' feature for weapons with unique specials such as Dark Flow/Meteor, FEB, etc. We're introducing this feature to make it easier for players to tell weapon sets apart.

Starting today, you can obtain the 'Fake Special' by redeeming Easter Eggs. It'll require 8 Easter Eggs to add 'Fake Special' to one weapon and 15 for two weapons
You can choose any special except S-rank exclusive from here:  https://phantasystar.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_special_attacks_in_Phantasy_Star_Online



>The special displayed is really just text and has no impact on the weapon
>Weapons that have regular special already (DVL/zerk, Grave Digger/Demons) can't be added fake special

Rules:

• The weapons will be delivered with blank stats (0 attributes/hit) and shields/armors will have minimum stats.
• Redeeming is possible from now until June the 3rd.
• To redeem your Easter Eggs, please message a GM on the forums or look for redeem rooms in game.

Some info about event droprates:

• These items only drop in the specified quests. In all other quests, the standard items are dropping according to the droptable.
• The droprate shown has DAR already calculated in. Just like the regular droptable. For example, Primal Nexus drops at 1/1204 from baranz episode 2. The actual rate is 1/602, but because baranz has 50% DAR, the rate shown is 1/1204.
• Furthermore, these rates (just like the ones on the droptable) benefit fully from happy hours x3 and ultimate x2. 

 

 

Easter event will run for about 4 weeks. Special thanks to all the staff for making this possible.

Good luck and we hope you enjoy the event!

we need to talk about balancing enemies and events... this is silly

[VEL(JP) 1112]

Its not intended as easy quest as OP saying. you can enjoy other contents to hunt DVL/TRC etc if you are not that level.

[theancientsam 9]

well my opinion is, whatever mark you guys were aiming for, you missed it. 

theres no reason for his attack to be that high, it can be hard without one shot kills

4000 dmg? serioulsy? why not 3000? why not 10,000,000?

events here have a problem, they all do one shot kill. thats not fun. no. no it isnt fun. beating the monster feels like cheating because you cant have an open fight

you cant ask the HU to tank, and the FO to heal, and do battle, THAT would be intersting

nah instead cheeze baranz zonde thru door or confuse or some other trick

its honestly taken the wind from my sales, a lot of the enthusiasm i had about the server is tainted by these silly op monsters. 

every event i will have to look forward to learning how to cheese the game just to clear a quest

thats not interesting to me

happy easter!

[VEL(JP) 1112]

giving your opinion is fine, but at the same time you have to choice your word and attitude first. please do not forget that next time, thanks.

I tried to move this comment to the ideas & suggestions section, which unfortunately didnt work out.
Here is a nice guide by @thanx (You dont have to do the whole thing btw) 

As for this topic, Happy Easter everyone!

[Cherry 227]

i think this quest is very easy and cheesing the enemies is not required. 
people only do that when they lack gear.

there are many viable strat to soloing / partying the quest.

enemies require a little strategy. 

[thanx 381]

Lost SOUL RIPPER can also be done in 2P, this is a video of me and @sunagimo doing it last year.

 

Happy easter🥚

[Yami 31]

I dont have a good RA so i skip this event prob. fine by me

i was finding it difficult to spawn a rappy , due to so many other rare enemy that could appear also.
