Welcome to Gaia! ::

i find the branch of paku paku pretty intersting...

Pff, most rares are junk. Don't feel too bad. What you have now is probably going to be most useful.

Well lets see... The special over powerful Uber Rares are highly uncommon. The step ups you refer to, Asuka isn't much more powerful than Yamato. The only saber stronger than Red Saber is Lavis cannon, that's quite a stretch to get too. Gae Blog is the step up from Vjaya but if you want somthing non hunters can use your best bet would be Madam's Umbrella or a Soul Banish.

What really helps sometimes is Levels. I've had my HUnewearl have trouble in ultimate even though she has a Red Sword+50. She just needed a few more levels to even the dificulty. She still has too low of ATP to equip a stronger sword.

now I've learned with Forces, if you're not going to do a great deal of attacking physically you don't need to change weapons as often. My FOmarl went from level 133 to 200 using the same Summit Moon, Elysion, and Red Handgun. (Figures she gets a Red Saber in a Forest run LONG after she didn't need it anymore.)

Ever get the feeling that rares only drop when you don't need them? I got a Zanba from a Sinow Zoa a LONG time ago but I never made a Male Hunter who could use it.

yep im a trifluid user too...its kinda like drugs....their addicted and can't be w/o them unless u go to the hospital everytime u get low, or get some strong atp

I love using androids. No need to buy fluids, no Poison, no Paralysis, and auto Trap Vision.

Oddly enough it seems like my androids find more techs though.

i tried that psoworld.com site that was suggested and it's still down. anybody know if it's down forever?
