Item Drops and Finds Version 2 - Post BB

Not that great, but it will do for now!

They can drop whole souls? or did you jsut farm up the 10 shards?

Unfortunately no they don't, I had to collect the shards. These souls are very time consuming and grindy, and they only have a very small chance of being half decent. meh. Would be much better if they dropped more commonly.

got ephenia, she just gives hp/mp 60%

Do the souls expire when you place them on the weapons?

No

Is there a list of all currently available Souls?

From the v149 Update Notes:

Bosses that have souls - Spirit of Rock, Prison Guard Ani, Dragon Rider, Rex, Mu Gong, Pianus, Black Slime, Ephenia, Cygnus, Von Leon, Arkarium, Pink Bean, Magnus, Balrog and Xerxes.

Haven't had a pend drop in a long time. Was going to skip gollux today; pretty glad I didn't

Me too.

Forgot to take a picture of the actual soul itself since I'm an idiot, so you get to look at my god awful weapon that I've been using for 70 levels to show that I got the dumb thing.



Not sure if it was worth spending 3 hours on, but Spirit of Rock is my favourite boss so I wanted him.

What is this item? I have never seen one before.

Seriously though, I got a B-rank neb, which is pretty cool.

This will take a while.

got this from the chaos sealed box

Decent skill gear ?

Already have dSI gloves and dCO boots. dSE doesn't work on Angelic Buster, so all I'm really missing is dAB.

Sw hats are the cheaper ones.

Why would you use Sweetwaters for decent skills?

Wouldn't they be absolutely awful given that they're completely untradeable and cost like way more than Empress stuff, and presumably VL stuff now that they're also equip tradeblock.

I don't know about you, but I've switched between at least 4 different warriors since I got decent SE, and my Empress gloves have travelled through all of them.

 Spoiler

A few reasons:

1) They're not completely untradeable.
2) The higher stats is appealing. A perfect legendary empress glove on top of a SW ends up being around half of the top 10 dojo gloves range increase, which helps immensely for dojo itself. I can wear an SE/SI glove and be able to cast them whenever i want and not be completely weak and feel like i need to dojo. The SW hat actually gives me more range without even casting decAB because of the 2 set effect (i just sacrifice 30% boss, which isn't even really that much of a damage loss for me at this point, but still worse than with decAB of course) but this is of course useless without SW gloves anyway.
3) It's not as hard as you think to make. Aside from actually getting the materials, which you can totally do yourself, it isn't difficult to find legendary empress stuff for absolutely dirt cheap.
4) They look awesome.

You can't ever trade it again after the scissor wears off, can you? Once you trade them once, they should become completely untradeable. They'd lose tradability and then you'd be unable to scissor them again. They themselves don't possess a scissorable tag, the tradeable status just happened to carry over.

The biggest issue for me is just tradeability. I would never sac one of my best items (even if they are just for buffs) for a stat increase since I personally consider that of less value than the ability to move the item between characters. I don't think it's difficult at all to make, I just think it's a waste.

And, yeah, they look awesome, which is why I keep a set around just for anvil fodder.
