Re: phero rune
The drop is 0.39%, a.k.a. a 1/255 chance. The only way for it to be any more rare is if it was 0/255, which is called "impossible" in the business.
Re: phero rune
Thanks for the info. I thought maybe it could be a glitch or something like that.

Re: phero rune
Actually, this goes for the drop of the Beast Commander alone. Getting one out of a battle is even more difficult, due to the limitation of max. 1 item per battle.Pyriel wrote:The drop is 0.39%, a.k.a. a 1/255 chance.

How many hours do you all tried before getting a phero rune?

Re: phero rune
Oh, yeah. This is the game where it processes every enemy's drop in some arbitrary order, isn't it. So your 1/255 for the Phero Rune is only if it gets to the point of checking that drop. If the other enemies in the party have something that drops with a greater chance, and they go first, you have to not get their drops, in addition to hitting the Phero rune. It's kind of like saying you have a chance to hit the lottery, but first you have to roll 5 dice and get a one on all of them.
The number of hours you try isn't going to change anything, really. One guy could try for five minutes and get lucky, or someone could have your sort of luck, play for 20 hours, and come up dry. That's just probability for you.

I don't remember that being possible, since he is the best blacksmith in the game. Try putting him in the group though and walking up to his spot in the smithery. It might work. Haha.

Re: phero rune

Re: phero rune
Playing the game on my PSP, I just got two Phero Crystals in a row. I was surprised. In the game I was hurting for money and doing a challenge run so I sold one and kept the other. Those crystals are worth a lot of money.
I found both of mine in east of Kaku, south of Forest Village early in the game.

Re: phero rune
didn't Celes find that killing the Beast Commander first would have the game check that drop first?

Re: phero rune
Okay, 1 hour hunting and I got a Phero crystal to drop. If anyone has seen my post about Celadon urns this latest file I started; I've become -extremely- lucky. I honestly don't get it. I recall countless other playthroughs and I remember some lucky drops but this is starting to become consistant. Fighting the Zombie Dragon I got the rare Lightning crystal to drop too. O.o
Celes: Input? Am I just lucky or does my Suikoden copy have a crush on me?
Gildedtalon: I just aquired Kirkis and have to go to the Village of the Elves.
