    This problem is misfortune for peakvox. They didn't expect this problem when they first released it and couldn't replicate in their own system, and needed the help of Sony to figure what the cause of the problem. Not sure if they have figured it out by now and whether their working on a fix, but considering how inefficient Sony management is handled with Home, it probably takes at least 3 weeks to several months after third parties submit their work to Sony and have them check things out. And with the time peakvox needs to fix it, expect somewhere around another month or 2 until a fix comes.

    And not sure if it was because of a national holiday this Wed, I'm predicting JP management took the whole week off, so pretty much we saw no update including their website, excluding the GZ items which is only available in the Glittering beach store (store items can probably be controlled with a timer, and the NEW tab is still from last week).

    Just want to remind everyone that this coming Friday will be the VERY LAST issue of Weekly Toro Station, so if you haven't picked up your 30 days for free under the premium tab - do so now, so then you may go back and unlock trophies and unlock Home items for yourself under your Japan account before a new Weekly Toro Station comes up.

    All I know is that from the previous issue this week, the Home article of the Toro space is on issue 26, which you'll need to use the top left option, which are the archives of each issue and scroll backward. This will start you off on the first stamp games where you just need to stamp every space after each article you've "read" and then go visit Terebi-san at the end of each issue to claim your first Home rewards. Luckily the free 30 days premium will give you 3 stamps instead of 2. There's also a password at the pillar behind Toro's old blue and white house (find the prompt and hit x), which is random for anyone and you need to use it to claim a miniature version of 980-yen house (which is an in-game item, not a Home reward) to progress.

    The second Home reward stamp game should be somewhere around the 50th issue or so. And, don't forget to check the Game archives under the World Globe tab and read the Miku Hatsune x PS Home event from 2009 to claim the Toro and Kuro fruit boxes for yourself for JP Home. ;) In addition, the 7 Lucky God boat with the Toro gang and the Twitter egg events can now be unlocked, so please check your last few issues to unlock them all. Just click the 'hai' (yes) option to replay the event and get them on each tab.

    A list of unlocked 10 trophies and how to unlock each of them is here, and you'll need the premium to have them unlocked, which are easy to unlock: http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/weekly-toro-station/

      Don't buy the 3000 point one. It only opens the window across from the exchange.
      It's where you can reset your stats if you want.

      Also, to unlock the last mission, you'll need to buy all the training scrolls.

      Haven't been on HOME for a while so I popped on today tried the new 'pokemon' fighter I really suck at it XD
      anyway, I happened to see someone walking around with a pretty cool looking sword on their back anyone know where it's from? is it a reward of some sort? I had a look around the HOME stores but I couldn't see it, I may have been looking in the wrong place?

      Can anyone tell me how to unlock the Chinese Unicorn series I've recently seen invading peakvox?

      I've had no success when asking users within the space, nor have I found any info online about it.

      Many thanks in advance!

      The one pictured, you need to clear the 27th stage in Peakmon. You then will be able to trade in for points at the points exchange.

      You will need to at least have one D, C, B rank monster to reach this stage.

      You also might need the sword w/ sheath to unlock it.

      The sword w/ sheath is a reward from the labs by doing a certain number of mixing. (not sure on the number. several hundreds needed, but rumor is said that the number changes depending on how many weapons you own)
      The sword w/o sheath is a reward from peakmon. Explained in the previous post.
      The head item is from the store.

      Well, I don't think 'recently' is the right word to use, since people have been able to create them for a while. If you are asking how to make them in Labs, you should go to the last page in the Labs thread and click backwards until you find it.

      If you are asking how to unlock them in Monster if they aren't available from the start... try creating at least one in Labs first. If you've already done that, then I think different monster classes are unlocked as you progress through the missions.
      I don't remember when they appeared on my list since I never used them yet.

      By the way, the Monster a person has out as their active item does in no way show their progress in the actual Monster game. It would be cool if it did though.

      Like I said before, I am 70% clear. The newest mission for me is super hard -and- you are not allowed to use items during it! So unless the Monster you are using has a healing ability AND an insanely high DEF value, you won't last 10 seconds. And I highly doubt this is the last level, so it will only get harder.

      The point is, it's smarter to reset a Monster and use a different combonation of scrolls to try to get higher stats, then to try to make a whole new Monster. So while you don't need to unlock the 'reset shop' right off the bat, refusing to unlock it at all isn't a good idea.

      Wow Martinson that's really impressive that you got so far playing on your own, from what you describe it looks like you are on mission 34 out of 36, but I don't understand how you can only have 70% cleared since you only have 3 missions left, not being able to use items and having to play on your own sounds pretty much impossible and imagine on that mission the enemies must be really powerful :(

      That may be in Shoei Kingdom, one of the rewards when gaining a certain number of points.

      Baron, in a previous post from December which is now lost, faga said (to quote):

      Giraffe Sword – Earned after mixing a certain number of cultures, talk to Hibiki-san (2nd option from the bottom), and she will give it to you. Unlocks Kirin pet species

      So it appears that getting this Qilin Sword itself is what unlocks those Chinese giraffe/unicorns. The thing that troubles me is faga's new information here (which I'd never heard previously) that "the number of mixes changes on how many weapons you own previously." I mean.... uh-oh??? I've received everything else except the Black Tortoise Bow. So does that means my chances of getting the Qilin/Giraffe Sword are actually higher, or lower, now that I have most of the weapons...? Quite confusing this is!

      I still haven't unlocked the axe myself, so I'm not quite sure if my chances are higher or lower, since I've unlocked 4 out of 5 weapons (excluding the spear from the crane game).

      The info is unconfirmed and it's pretty much hard to confirm it.
      Anyway, I hear that you get if more faster, which means probably lower count.

      The bug has been fixed for Peakvox Monster! Last night I must have joined about 30 different games, while host about 6 of my own. With the help of 1 or 2 random people I was able to beat a few levels I wasn't able to beat on my own. So I'm happy about that, but I didn't clear all the levels yet.

      Since joining a game doesn't take away any of your turns, using the '300% point gain' item and just joining games for an hour long will give you an impressive amount of points.

      However, you do need to be quick to try to join a game; if you don't click on it within a second or less, 3 ofther people will beat you to the punch. Also, you might join a game with monsters that are way too powerful. Since you only get points if the level is cleared, if you think you and the host can't beat a mission, don't waste your items in a lossing battle.

      When hosting early levels others will join up quickly, but with harder levels you might have to wait a bit. Get to know which Monsters are rank A. Normally one having one rank A monster helping you is enough. So when you see a zombie maid girl join your game, don't wait around for two more guests. Just start the mission. If you wait too long people will quit and look for a different game to join.

      As you know there are 4 all new monsters that were shown in the last few seconds of the Monster video. One of the 4 actually appeared as an npc last night! Although all he said was '' . . . . '' which was kinda lame. I hope, but can't prove, that those 4 would be more then just npcs and that you could actually get them as monster characters and as normal active item pets.

      There is a listing in co-op for playing with friends only. Never tred it myself yet, but if it means people with people om your contact list only (as it should), then I can try to help people by joining their games. My top monster at the moment is a rank A sheep. Just send me a message if you are interested.

      :shock: Um… er… wha-…?

      Sorry… I'm completely confused. Sword w/sheath… sword w/o sheath… head item?

      If I'm following along correctly, I think you were still responding to HeeroMasaki questions on Peakmon, though you kept quoting me.

      Thanks just the same …


      Hiya! Well, it was "recently" for me, anyway… I'd never seen any in Home until last week, when I suddenly saw several users in peakvox showing theirs off to everyone.

      I was indeed asking how to specifically unlock the 麒麟 | Qilin (Chinese Unicorn) species so they would appear within my "Pets Book Progress" listing.

      I know how to mix up all the little buggers already — that was the first thing I attempted, just in case — but as expected, it doesn't work. A species has to appear in your "Pets Book Progress" list first, otherwise you are S.O.L. (*ahem*… :shit: outta luck)!

      As for Peakvox Monster… well, I could care less about that for now. It just holds no interest for me…


      Hiya Kindle! Confusing you say? Why no, not at all… whatever gives you that idea? :rolleyes:

      And thanks sooooooo much for providing a direct answer to my query…appreciate it! I had a sneaky suspicion it would involve Hibiki-san somehow, along with another ridiculously-hard-to-get weapon item. *Sigh*:crybaby:

      I figured that info had to already show up somewhere in this forum, but nothing turned up after my searches here. No wonder… guess one can't locate posts that have done a vanishing act, right?

      After reading what faga just wrote about actually getting the Qilin Sword (thanks faga!), I now understand exactly what the odds of my receiving it are. In simple terms, those odds are stacked so astronomically high against me I should never presume to ever receive it.

      To date, no matter how much I've played the mad scientist in peakvox, I've yet to receive even a single weapon from Hibiki-san. Not one… nothing… zip city. Which also means I can't even create any of the cool Demons yet. So very frustrating.

      Thanks again for the assist — appreciate it. And hope the Qilin Sword finds its way to you soon, whatever the odds!

      I still need some help at Peakvox Monster, just a few questions on what do to, how to do this and that, etc. I'll be on Japan Home later today.

      There are not one, but two "Qilin Giraffe Swords". The one that I got today Friday at 12:10 EST from Hibiki in the Labs is the 'Sheathed' version for your back, and it added 6 more of the deerlike 麒麟 species to my Pet Book, so my Book now lists 60 pets total.

      The other one available from Peakvox Monster is the 'Unsheathed' Qilin Sword for 15,000 Monster exchange points:
      宝剣・麒麟(抜刀)(Giraffe Sword)
      各15000
      手(hand item)

      which is the one that HeeroMasaki was asking about in her photo. I can't see it this particular sword yet in my Exchange Shop since I'm only on Monster Quest #9.

      Actually, now that Monster is finally working for martinson and myself, I find that game is quite fun. The furniture rewards are wonderful -- Thematically they're following a medieval "King Arthur's Court" scenario with Excalibur and suits of Gothic armor and the like.

      Curiously, in the last 2 days I've noticed a new batch of people running around wearing Hibiki-san's Qilin Sword... which suggests that she might be in a generous gifting phase right now?

      Note to Hopper: you might want to pay special attention to Hibiki right now...


      Speak of the Devil and he appears, that's all I can say given I finally got that dastardly Qilin Sword a few hours ago. For those of you who haven't received any of the weapons, or very few of them from her, here's my advice:

      TALK TO HER MULTIPLE TIMES when you visit her each time. Seriously!

      The reason I say this is that, normally, she 'gives' you the weapon reward when you're eligible for it and you've click on the first topmost option (Cultivate). However, this time, when I talked to her, she gave me the Qilin Sword not the first time I talked to her, but later on during her second set of dialogues which she began with the exclamation "~~~!! ~~~~ !! ! ~~~?!"

      I think you become eligible to receive a given weapon once you've completed a sufficient number of cultivation hours. In my case, last week I completed all material ingredients from Level 1 to 27 (i.e. 81% completion) and 45% of all pets. But you will NOT receive any of the weapon rewards if you don't talk to her sufficiently to the point where she gives you her coy "music note" comment.

      Hope that helps. Good luck
