Rare Items FAQ

v. 1.1 by Khaotika!

This FAQ is written for the US version of Phantasy Star Online for the Sega
Dreamcast. It is written for the sole purpose of finding all the appropriate
items for your character, best weapons for them, managing your inventory, 
etc.

This FAQ shall not be posted up on any gaming websites without my
permission. Email me at khaotika@earthlink.net if you wish to do so. Also,
the plagarizing or selling of this FAQ is illegal. Feel free to print this
for your enjoyment. ;)

The newest version of this FAQ can always be found at www.gamefaqs.com.

Anywhere else means that they stole it. :p

It will be updated once a week, unless I happen to get a glut of new info..

NOTICE...

3/13/2001 - v. 1.0 - Basically, this FAQ was torn straight from the uber-
gigantic Items/Weapons/etc. FAQ I wrote. It was getting quite huge, so I
decided to split this from the main FAQ. Besides, over 90% of the email I
receive is about rares.. :p Added quite a few things, as well as (hopefully)
correcting some information like 'where an item falls under', info on how
to get them, etc.

For info on regular items, please refer to my Items/Weapons/Armor/Units FAQ.

*NOTICE*

While I appreciate the ton of emails I get about my 2 FAQs, PLEASE, PLEASE
don't email me asking for free handouts of these items. Some of these I
have, but most I don't. Those I do have, I'm probably using. Any Special 
Weapons I happen to have are mainly for my own use, or to have for the hell
of it. And no, I don't have Heaven's Punisher, please quit asking for it.
What the hell use would a Gae Bolg be to a RAmar anyway?? I would consider
trades, but I don't have much of value..most of what I have, could easily
be found on your own.. :p

And if you do see me on PSO, please be kind. My mental health is usually one
step away from the looney bin.... @_@

*****************************************************************************

This FAQ is here as reference for the seemingly never ending amount
of rare items found in this game. It should serve as an all-purpose 
reference guide for anyone looking for the best weapon for their character, 
to which units are the best to attach to your armor. Some of these rares are 
quite common (DB Saber anyone?), while some are MADDENINGLY difficult to 
find. ID, Hours Played, The Person who starts the game, etc, all seem to 
make finding certain rares easier.

Some items, weapons, etc. can only be used by certain classes. Androids
cannot use Magic, so items related to that are useless to them. Keep
in mind that some classes learn to use weapons/spells, etc. at a faster pace
than others.

As for the items list, you can hold a maximum of 60 items total in storage,
as well as 30 on your person. 90 items seems like a lot, but your space will
fill up quickly, trust me. ;)

I can't do this FAQ alone, so I need some help acquiring info about some of
the rare items you may find in your game, such as Magical Piece, Pan
Arm's Blades, etc.

Email me at khaotika@earthlink.net if you have anything you want to add
here. I'll put it in the next revision. :)

1. Hard to Find But Worth It Regular Items


As we all know by now, finding that one rare item you've been looking for
countless hours really makes the time spent in this game well worth it. But
for all those who haven't had such luck, here's a small list of hard to find
regular items, that are just as good, and in some cases, better..


For GENERAL USES:

A great weapon needs to have a lot of high photon percentages on all 
enemies. Blizzard types help in online games, as they can help freeze the 
faster VHard enemies so your teammates won't get slaughtered. Tempest weapons
are great against the machines of the Mines, while Burning types help against
most Cave monsters. Other very useful types for online (or offline) play are
Gush, Arrest, Hell, Geist, Demon's and Devil's. Have a LOT of extra cash and
have nothing to buy? Use a Charge weapon. A Gladius with any of these types
should be kept on your person at all times, if you're not a Hunter.

For HUNTERS:

For quick attackers, I recommend a Blizzard Ripper or an Arrest Ripper. To
take out a legion of enemies, Gush Gungirs and Caliburs help tremendously.
Nothing beats a weapon of the Gungir or Calibur type with a Demon's, 
Devil's, or even a Hell attribute. Try to find a weapon that suits your 
playing style, as well as one with the attribute you feel helps you out the
most.

For RANGERS:

To help get a swarm of Dimenians off your back, try a Demon's Laser or even
a Devil's Laser. Blizzard and Arrest types also help out as well. Androids
who can't benefit from attributes like Geist or Spirit, can use a Charge
type weapon if they have the extra meseta for it. If you can find a Hell
Arms, hold on to it, and teach the Ruins enemies a lesson.

For FORCES:

Nothing feels better than using a Blizzard weapon, followed by a well placed
Rafoie to show enemies what 'a cold day in Hell' really means. Geist Rayguns
are a Godsend for Forces, so you should always be on the hunt for one with
some high percentages. Arrest, Demon's, Devil's and Hell also help out in
a pinch.

2. Rare Items

This covers the rare items found while playing through the game by
yourself or with others. The chance of finding these, is of course, better
if you play in a multi-player game online. Some of these are more common
than others, and some, even though they belong to a certain family of
weapons/armor, can be equipped by any character.

If you find these items (with the exception of rare units), they will
usually be unknown weapons/armor, in LARGE FONT, and you will have to see
a tekker to actually reveal what they are. Once analyzed, these items will
show up in your stock in Gold Font.

The easier to find ones are around 9 Stars. The harder to find ones are
10 Stars or more..

*I'd like to know the MST/ATT/ATP requirements for these as well...*

*How far can you grind each weapon?*

Everyone who's been a part of my team - Thanks for all the good times,
boss fights, and countless hours of playing...

Thanks to CJayC for hosting this up at GameFAQS. Don't work yourself
to death or anything... :P

*A side note: I hate the Soul Eater questing. Infinitely stupid MOME and 
ASH....* (grumble)

*Another side note: There's no such thing as 'one person finds photon
claw the other finds double saber.' I should know because I found both
in my game. :p *

Look me up Online - I'm a RAmar (Human Ranger), with blonde hair, goatee,
green suit, named Khaotika. (Still Lvl 100 as of 3/20/01)

Failing that, I'll be there as LuccaAshtear (FOnewearl) from Crono Trigger,
or as Pixiebitch (HUnewearl). TV's Frank (HUmar), has been retired. :p

Look for me at Ophelia, Block 10.
