Hint: Quick Charge With A Buddy
Here's a little trick if your bud's having a hard time trying to get his MAG's Photon Blast charged quicker.
First, remove all attacks and magic from your Customization menu.
Place Resta in the R trigger customization menu and place it on the B button (the one with the blue outline)
Place any spell like Grants or Zonde on the other customization menu's B button.
Target a player and quickly tap the R trigger and then the B button. You should cast whatever spell you linked to the first customization menu's B button and hit the player with it. You won't damage the player, but it will charge their MAG's Photon Blast.
It might take some time to master, but keep practicing with it and you'll do fine.
Hint: Hidden Artwork
Place your Phantasy Star disc into your PC-CDrom. Open the folder called Extra. Inside you will see three more folders containing images of different sizes.
Hint: Be A Pal-Restore Other's TP!
To restore a friend's TP when you're online is rather easy(Though you have to practice it, it takes a couple tries) Go to Techniques in your menu, and go to Resta. When you are there press Up and A at the same time. It should make a sound like Ryuker, instead of the usual Resta sound. If it works then your friend's TP will shoot up like a balloon.
Easter Egg: Special Character Animations
If you're sick of your character just standing around like a motionless robot, you can use this handy little trick if you have a keyboard to make your character perform some different animations while you are in the lobby.
On your Dreamcast keyboard, hold down the "Alt" key and then press any of the function keys (F1 through F12) and you'll see a new animation. Now your character will have a little more life!
Hint: Frying Pan
Earn the frying pan by following the steps listed below:
- First you must complete every offline quest on any difficulty level. This will allow you to play any quest as many times as you want.
- Go to the Quest called "Secret Delivery".
- Locate the fat man walking around and talk to him.
- Talk to him and he will tell you about a secret club called WEAPONS.
- After talking to him and receiving the emblem you must complete the quest or all efforts will be lost.
- You must now locate four other WEAPONS members. They can be found in Quests: Claiming Stakes, The Value of Money, The Lost Bride and Gran Squall.
- You must complete each quest after receiving your approval from the WEAPONS members or you will not save your approvals.
- After receiving all four approvals you must return to the Fat man in Secret Delivery.
- He will direct you to go see the Boss of WEAPONS to receive your membership.
- Walk towards the shops and there will be a woman in the corner.
- This will be the Fat man's wife. She will give you the Frying Pan as a token of your membership.
- Have Fun!
Cheat: Loose your weapon to the boss?
If you die at a boss character in PSO, here's a little trick to get back
your main weapon. Before you fight any boss, set a telepipe (or use the
spell Ryuker if you have it) close to the boss teleporter. Now, if you
die fighting the boss, go back to the main town, and take the telepipe
you set back to the boss teleporter. Go back to the boss character,
locate where your weapon is and get it. As long as you DON'T equip your
main weapon, and keep it in your inventory you'll keep it even if you
die to the boss.
Unlockable: Hard Mode/Vhard Mode
Beat the off-line version of the game to unlock hard mode and again
for Very Hard Mode. You get more expierience
and better items in these modes.
Hint: Delsabers Shield
First you should play in the ruins in either hard/vhard mode. Keep fighting the DelSabers until you find a "Delsaber's Right Arm" and a "Delsaber's Left Arm" Than in the Guild missions complete the quest called "Doc's Secret Plan." Complete this quest; return to the Pioneer 2. Than start up the next quest, "Unsealed Door." Find Dr. Montague on the Pioneer 2 (he's just outside the Medical Center. Talk to him and he'll give you the 'Delsaber's Buster' and/or 'Delsabers Shield'
Note: Both of these used together can drastically increase your
Hint: Screen Capture Feature
To access the screenshot capture program on PSO you'll need to
have an additional Dreamcast controller plugged into port D of your
Dreamcast, and an empty VMU. The VMU has to be TOTALLY EMPTY because
the screenshot you take using the PSO capture program needs 195
blocks of space. Insert the VMU into socket 2 of the DC pad plugged
into port D. Now, start up Phantasy Star Online and get into a
game with a character - it doesn't matter if it's offline or online.
Now, to take a screenshot, take the DC pad plugged into port D and press
Start, A and X buttons together. If you've done everything properly, a
black screen should appear with some numbers counting down at the upper
right corner. Once the countdown ends, you'll revert back to your
gameplay screen. You now have the portrait saved on the VMU! Though we
have yet to figure out if there's any way to see the portrait on your
Dreamcast, you can upload it through email and send it to friends!
Additionally, you may be able to upload your screens on Sonic Team's Official PSO
Visual BBS webpage where you can also view other PSO
portraits on the site.
Cheat: Hidden Costume Colors
