Altana Festival in Osaka: Super Ultimate Complete Guide +1

[Gere]

With Black Grimoire active, the Scholar used “Chapter: Elemental Presence” ??????, which allows single target Enfeebling and Dark magic spells to be cast as AoE.

Calculator anyone?

[Titanss]

Good job dude thx for that.

Ibwam might look a little familiar...
there's a reason. He was designed because of the immense popularity over the "Dondake!?" incident. (OK, this is some homosexual phrase in Japan that's supposedly hilarious. Dondake!? is the equivalent of some flaming gay man saying 'What the!?' It started with some incident on a TV show, but I'm sorry to say I can't find the clip as YouTube removed it as per the request of Tokyo Broadcasting. Oh, and if you're wondering, Ibwam is a Lure of the Wildcat NPC in Windurst Waters by the fountain, I believe.)

i found these two examples on Dailymotion, but not seeing the original clip i am not sure if either of these are correct.

Then there is this one i found on youtube;

Q: Do multiple instances of Treasure Hunter in a single party increase the chances of a drop? When exactly does the effect of Treasure Hunter take place?
A: When more than one member has Treasure Hunter, the player with the strongest version will have theirs take effect for the party. The effect comes into play as soon as the Thief generates enmity from the target enemy. Even if the Thief dies, the effect remains.

Generates enmity by simply pulling the mobs (dynamis) aggroing the mobs or enmity created via weaponskill or voke?

[Tradition]

Enmity is enmity don't nitpick shit that doesn't need to be

[LD]

It probably means as soon as THF is entered into the mob's 'list', TH takes effect.
Worst-case senario would be if it had to face the THF at least once, but I kinda doubt that.

The victorious nation will also receive a special vendor selling goods exclusive to their homeland. In addition, the World with the greatest results will get a special Tele-point that allows travel between the three nations, not to mention the possibility of “HQ sunglasses.” Adventurers everywhere should be ready to enthusiastically take on this challenge.

So like, specific to server like the Celestial Nights event?

That's how I'm reading it. One single server will get the telepoint...

Equip Armlets and Knife when you first engage target?

A Thief can load up on Treasure Hunter, plink the enemy once, and then switch to full out fighting gear. There was a study in a JP guide that showed they could literally disband, go home and change jobs, come back and join the fight, and the drop rates were basically unaffected.

Unaffected here means the drop rate has been infected by TH?

Any speculation on what the first floor madame might drop?

[drwaffles]

Cells, most likely.

maybe Silencing the Tonberry will prevent him from using his Words of bane?

[Siniroth]

So that he can use throat stab on the -random tank- that doesn't know how to run away from it more often? no thanks D:

[Rocl]

Any speculation on what the first floor madame might drop?

I have this glorious idea that it'll have the same drops as either the 6F or 5F madame but I'm certainly not putting my money on it

[LD]

Is it possible the other 3 might have the same mechanic? Maybe not a madame, but...

[Zosi]

Any speculation on what the first floor madame might drop?

Speculation:

1) Same as 5FN. Both of the pop conditions involve how much Pathos you're afflicted by.
2) Same as 6FN. The pop condition could be considered the opposite of 5FN's pop condition, and would thus drop the pieces that 5FN doesn't drop.
3) Completely arbitrary pieces that aren't in a common pattern with other NMs in the zone. SE loves doing that kind of shit.
4) A pool of 10 cells. It's an easy way out so they don't have to pick one of the previous choices, and the pop condition and drops would be nicely related. Use no cells in order to make it pop, and be rewarded by a bunch of (presumably useful) cells.

Any speculation on what the first floor madame might drop?

I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.
