For those that don't know, Netcash Ultimate attack is going on right now and the three worlds have been infected with the flame of seed. Almost all of the missions have been replaced with flame monsters, flamey backgrounds and seeds to erase. These are accompanied by nice new rewards in return for burn photons, and there's some GM events going on too. These events run unti the 22nd of March.
MISSIONS
As well as the usual benefits, completion of these missions scores purification points (PPs). These points are not scored or collected as an individual, and instead go toward an overall world total (for either Parum, Moatoob or Neudaiz) and a grand total for all PPs scored by all players on all missions. Each planet has a target number of points, when reached, the planet is completely purified.
These totals are dynamically recorded HERE . You can see that Neudaiz is almost completely purified, and that Parum has hardly been touched. Probably because Neudaiz missions are nice and easy, whereas Parum's come with a strict time limit.
Update: Whats nice about these missions is that it doesn't matter if you die. Great for low hop forces like myself and also great for leveling up low level characters who are going to die a lot. Missions only go up to A grade, but you get a fragment at that level anyway. Also, if you finish a set of all the missions, go see Bruce on 5F of GC and he'll give you between 1 and 10 fragments. This is a great way for starting characters to get fragments (this goes away on March 8th though).
Accumulation of PPs leads to rewards, and after a planet is purified, the shops there will sell all clothes at half price. There's also a reward for achievements in the overall total of PPs, with lvl 3 photon luck up for grabs. If 50 million points get scored (current total 15 million at time or writing), the reward will be 7 consecutive days of lvl 3 luck. Also, in the bottom right corner of the link you'll see 20 million points = SECRET. So there's an extra reward of some kind when that target is hit.
Update: The secret is the frying pan, a 7 star weapon used as a sabre. A recent magazine has revealed that there's two as yet unreleased seed missions, one of them will have the pan as a completion reward.
BAN PHOTON REWARDS
Throughout Netcash Ultimate Attack players can exchange Ban Photons for awesome goodies. The list can be found HERE
Here's a translation of the highlights:
Real Handgun* (10)
Burning Rangers Poster (20)
Very Red Room Ticket (50)
Hand Spear (70)*
Gigaline 26% fire (80)
Garment Aura (99)
*only available if exchanged at a ST sanctioned netcafe.
As you can imagine, everyone’s gone ban photon crazy. The last price I heard was that they are going for a whopping 2K each right now. Fortunately, they crop up quite often in the new seed missions.
Update: they're going for 1K each right now, and the price seems to be going down. A magazine has stated that March 15th will be the last day for cashing in banphotons. It'll be interesting to see how much they go for on the last day (low I hope!).
On a more personal note, thanks to Shimarisu. I reactivated her old JP shop via her card and bought all her bans for 50 each ^_^.
GM Events
There's two GM events going on too. There's four GM characters ("The Boys of Flame") going around helping out on the least purified planets (read: Parum). There's a competition to take screen shots with them and earn Garment Aura's and trophies. Link HERE
