ST's fatal mistake..., Don't aid in the spread this mistake Options

[HC82]

As many of you are already aware of, the new West Tower quest introduced a way to add percents to your weapons, any weapon that is(expect Sranks).

20 PD= +5%
1 Photon Sphere= +30%

The amount you can add to a weapon is not capped(100% is natural max). If you have 9 Photon spheres you can add +90% to three different attributes. With the in-game dupe bug that cannot be fixed(it's a natural bug in the game and can be done offline) this allows any gamer to alter ANY weapon they own with 100% to 3 different attributes. Using the in game dupe bug one can exploit this quest and create overpowered weapons, which aren't part of PSOs natural drop list(unless your the type of person who can beat the odds and win the lotto twice in a row).

Anyway, these weapons hurt the teamwork aspect of PSO and class balance. If anyone has played PSO ver1&2 you know the effect these weapons have on the community.

So on behalf of Apocalypse Tribe DO NOT USE these weapons online in ANY Apocalypse Tribe game room. I don't think there is any long standing AT member here who would disagree with keeping these weapon out of an AT game. It drains the fun out of PSO.
Offline is your own business, so do as you please, but online your only hurting whatever dignity PSO has left as an online game.

I have to agree. ST really fudged up this time. I really do not blame ST for trying to give us something cool to do, but with all the dupers out there it is too easy to get +300% weapons.

The reason behind requiring PSpheres and many PDs was that this was going to be a really pwerful way to alter your weapons, too bad PSpheres and PDs have been long time duped. I am going to stick with finding my own weapons that are dropped. I will keep the 300% on some cheasy weapons that I can have fun with palying solo.

I do have to agree that we need to keep these "altered" weapons out of our games. I won't be using any, I hope everyone else follows. I prefer waiting for that long awaited drop or item in the weapon shop to show up.
