I saw this in a topic on the PSOW forum. I'll modify the quote so it is slighty easier to understand.

"After 'you' FSOD, go into 'the' Online 'option' and select the character that was FSODed. While it's dialling, press b 'to cancel the dailing up' and let it save. All ur items will be back."

Does this work? I never tried it before.

Also I'll just post this info again after readign CrazyFX's post. If your FSODing alot when online, this is a common occurence when your GC ram overloads. This is caused by teleporting into a crowded lobby(not ship), which increases the chance of FSOD occuring, Since the GC needs to load up all those players in the lobby, the GC loads it up to ram. Also players sitting in chairs requires the GC to load up more info to ram. Best way to prevent yourself from FSODing when leaving a game is to enter a game in a lobby that isn't crowded. For example antares 8, lobbies 1~2 can be very crowded at times. Heading to lobby 5 where 'empty ensures that when you leave a game you won't FSOD.

I have never had any luck with any of these 'tricks.'

The only thing I do is keep everything in the bank that is not equipped. I only carry two weps around with me when in a game anyways.

The only thing is that every FSOD puts me back about 30k meseta to rebuy mates and stuff...eh. Oh well, I guess that's the way it goes.

I was getting FSODed like crazy one night on Alcyone. One of the problems was that the block had like 150 people on it...the other one was that I was lagging like there was no tomorrow!

I'll be sure to try this next time I FSOD...but I'm not gonna try to purposely FSOD just to test it

I tried this after getting the endless pipe loop to Falz last night, and it did not work. So I think the verdict is no.

I don't think that method will work. I can see how people can dupe using that.

Bryn, you're PSO game gets stuck at Falz too? That's so annoying :/ You're the third person I know that has this happen, including me. >_<

Count me the fourth. I cleaned my disc though and it was fine.

In all honestly for bosses all you really need is:

A gun and/or melee weapon (Hunters)

Maximum of two guns (Rangers)

Hell you don't need anything (Forces)

Also most likely your best weapon is not needed especially when your playing with a full team so if you do FSOD during Falz atleast you really have not that much to complain about.
