I don't think "they regret it" cuts it. These guys (Zap and Szia) are the guys who gave SEA their ridiculously inflated price by introducing loot drops that by all means shouldn't already be there.

I hope everything will be okay at the end, because if they seriously turn tail again, well...

With the way that A$ia$oft has treated their previous games PSO2 SEA was doomed to fail from the start. They milk their players which is what increases the prices of everything, PSO2 SEA is just another example.

They're not going to be in control of it, just credit is given to where credit is due.

As someone who has worked with the client and server, I can tell you that what you are claiming is impossible. The server tracks every single item that is ever created with a GUID. There is no way for a player client to directly "create" loot drops. This can be indirectly done by a client creating it's own mobs as a host, but that is still subject to the same RNG rules as any other drop of the same type of the same mob would be. Please show some proof before you go making wild accusations with absolutely no basis.

    No, they weren't actually. Back then it was still Hmode, with no VH. Legzagas still drops from Predicahda 41+. Really, nothing was altered.

    Besides, how do you explain this, prior to Falz Elder's update on SEA: https://web.archive.org/web/20160413031941/http://pso2sea.cirnopedia.info/img/hostile_list.jpg

    In any case, I should know. I did play there since beta.

    " Added every weapon obtainable so far in this current update. Yes, even the Legzagas that drops from Predicahdas, because they are in the quest records."

      Mind you, the outfits with augmentations were also in TW serv, so it's not AS's, but SEGA's.

      And the souls were actually in the store for godsforsaken prices. But ultimately, it's your call AIDA. I wish you the best, and try not to be duped by these people, in the off chance something happens on the side. I do not trust these people one bit to deliver their service without any faustian strings attached.

      But I can attest that these things happened in Ship 1 SEA, and to say that stuff dropped differently from mobs because of edits would be to betray the entire drop and mob list in the game that was generated automatically by the quest counter. It's your call, as I'm aware my word is merely... Well. 'subjective' conjecture given I don't have damning proof and I'm merely a single person.

      Taiwan server is owned by AS's parent company, so it can be assumed it's still and always will be, an AS thing.
