Its been a long time. . . What does HBR mean?

HRB stands for Hunters Boost Road, which is a special feature on Ephinea inspired by PSU. Every month a new set of quests is set for that month's HBR and running those quests increases your drop rate for those quests for the month. You can find more information here!
 
Is it possible to ever be able to switch from Hardcore mode to Normal mode? I ultimately chose Hardcore mode but if I ever wanted to changed back to Normal mode, is that even possible?

It's a different account type. You'll have to start over.
 
Is Love Heart armor DFP variable at all or does it always come with 196 DFP? If it does variate, what is the DFP I would need on the spirit garment to get a max DFP Love Heart?
 
Is this the damage formula for PSOBB?

Damage formula:
[(ATP - DFP)/5] x 0.9 = Weak/Base
Heavy: Base x 1.89
Sacrifice: Base x 3.32
Vjaya: Base x 5.56
Critical: Result x 1.5

  • Multipliers are averages.
  • Sacrificial specials have 100% activation rates.
  • Vjaya has other properties of a Heavy attack (accuracy; adds to PB).
To factor in Shifta and Weapon Attribute %:

(Maximum ATP; highest damage)
[BA x (Shifta + 1.0)] + [MWA x (ATR + 1.0)] + [(MWA - MinWA) x Shifta] + (Grind x 2) + AA + SA= ATP

(Minimum ATP; lowest damage)
[BA x (Shifta + 1.0)] + [MWA x (ATR + 1.0)] + (Grind x 2) + AA + SA = ATP

  • BA: Base ATP
  • MWA: Maximum Weapon ATP
  • ATR: Weapon Attribute %
  • MinWA: Minimum Weapon ATP
  • AA: Armor ATP
  • SA: Shield ATP

All playermade armours are minstat unless gliched.

Having done it, I'm certain you can glitch sweetheart and vajulla by transforming a +dfp/evp base in one go without leaving the room/block.

I've never actually tried with the intermediate stages (love heart, nagel, de rol) might want to test on sandbox. Something tells me that the glitch is because you use two items on the armour in succession...

A max spirit garment is only +7/+5 though, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Only thing wrong with that damage formula is that grinds are added directly to the weapon ATP and thus multiplied by other things.
 
Gi/Ra and Healing merge are what amps/barrier combinations again? If I remember correctly Healing merge was Resta Amp and Recovery Barrier but I have forgotten the other two. Also, is L&K 38 combo unlocked on here?
 
Nothing is combo unlocked and none of the merges have changed.

This means Gi/Ra amplifiers do not exist, instead there's amplifiers for each specific tech (30%) and Red / Blue / Yellow Merges (20%).

You'll want the Amplifier of [Technique], which then combines with either a Recovery Barrier (Resta/Anti), Assist Barrier (Shifta/Deband) or [Color] Barrier depending on tech.
 
@Gunda
Ahh memories finding amps starting out.

That pinkal amp of gifoie. Ugh. Caves 3 box. Found mine running soul if a blacksmith i think. Took way too many times.

The amp of rafoie tho. The "PW3 box runs" can net you one. Red can get addslot plus that on hard iirc. (Also check @anime 's guide on those PW3 runs.)
 
@Matt
Thank you for the insight.
However, I assume you guys must be looking into combo unlocks and combining merges for the future. Schthack definitely had a good idea there when it came to those merges. (Ying Yang merge, Healing merge, Si merge, Segi merge, Gi merge and Ra merge.) The convenience of them were inevitable.

@Nyte
Thank you for those helpful tips, sir.
*Note to self*
Do not make a FO until they make a gi merge and ra merge boost 20% per Gi or Ra techs respectively. Lol

Nope. Scht just introduced op shit with combo unlocks, rainbows, etc. never thinking about the overall balance. Certain classes ended up being too weak. That's why they NEEDED to make better merges. One op custom item leads to another and that goes on and on and on...

Perfect description. SCHT "balance" was absolutely terrible at the end.

Is Agastya's boss trigger based on sync?

Does this apply to any other mag trigger?
Click to expand...
Some information can be found here: https://www.pioneer2.net/community/threads/basic-mag-information.1497/page-2#post-57405
According to the chart, Agastya has boosts based on sync on both its 100% PB invincibility and boss room trigger. Another notable mag which has boosted boss room trigger is Nidra, which has invincibility on all 3 triggers but does not get a boost on 100% PB.

Your whole argument becomes invalid if Dark Flow is combo unlocked on this server. Because that was the most OP. (I dont know if it is combo unlocked on here so yeah. Im just saying.)

Anyways, I'm going off topic so I'll stop here.

There's a lot of triggers like this across a lot of mags. Some mags reduce rate from the regular rate if Sync is under 120%, while some mags improve rate from the regular rate if Sync is above 0%. The further from 0 or 120 sync, the more/less likely a trigger is to proc from its normal rate, respectively.

For example:

Sato at 0% Sync has less than 50% rate to trigger invincibility at full PB.
Agastya at 120% Sync has more than 50% rate to trigger invincibility at full PB and boss.

Note that I don't know the actual value that the boost/loss is by.

Here's a list of all the sync triggers though. This info won't list what the actual triggers are or the default rate.

+ means that it is a positive sync boost (the more sync from 0, the better the rate from default)
- means that it is a negative sync boost (the less sync from 120, the worse the rate from default)

Oh this was replied to already... but I'll leave this here since it has all mags and a much more readable format.
