The 1Up Platinum Cup is headed to the Xbox 360, PC, and PS2 servers on October 19th! This exciting global event is a partnership between 1Up.com and Gurhal Channel 5, and will take place in a virutal space: VR Gurhal. This event will be your only chance to pick up some of the rarest and most desired items of Phantasy Star Universe.

GUARDIANS will undertake missions and be evaluated on their intuition, friendship, endurance, and luck. These missions are extremely fun and will truly test GUARDIANS and their ability to perform under pressure. Strive to be the best and achieve the rank of "Platinum Perfect" and a prize so awesome, we can't talk about it here!

Information on how missions work can be viewed here: http://boards2.sega.com/psu_board/viewtopic.php?t=47326

Tero /Rainbow +12% element
rappy Mode +4 sta
Tero/ Hp Restore lvl 2 auto-recovery
Hard / Hp Restore lvl 3 auto-recovery
Giga /Stamina +4 sta
Hard / Stamina +6 sssta

Tero /Rush? 90% skill and bullet pp usage -100 atp -60 ata


Just think if we get the rewards for this, I'm thinking we will only get the +15% snyth bonus, after we get the pre-AOI patch that increases snyth %.

I believe that's Tero / All Save. Neither of the Rush units have been discovered yet I believe.

And no Me/ Quick? I was finally about to start hunting one for my alt, but if it's gonna be dropping a lot, I'd rather not waste my time.

Hmm does this mean we may not possibly see AotI until December? If This event last 4 weeks, then it would end on Nov 16. Not sure if they would still decide to give the expansion around the 20th as we were thinking. They would need time to implement the changes like they did in the Japanese version, unless of course, they decide to give us updates during the cup http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Either way I'm still pretty excited! (assuming I get my broken xbox back by then. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif )

Niloklives
Sep 27, 2007, 06:59 PM
that occured to me as well.

to those of you sweating the boss drops, completeing th EX missions gets you a set of bozes at the end that have a change of dropping pretty much any 10* board in existance to my understanding as well as some exclusive units such as a lvl 3 hp regen and another that possts stamina by 6.

this may help even out the PS2/PCs economy a bit though...seeing as most everyone will have a few S ranks now, the 30mil shit won't fly anymore. si while people will still have money, the shop prices should be droppingthen come AoI the money will all go to the NPC for the casino and all the new stuff.

I like where this is going.

HFlowen
Sep 27, 2007, 07:03 PM
EX missions are accessed after the event missions if you acquire enough points to S rank. Points are gained by Killing enough monsters, completing the mission fast, and physically getting points in the mission (like collecting samples in HSM.)

If you got enough to S rank, you immediately begin an EX mission, which is a one room, monster gauntlet. Enemies die easy and have increased drop rate. After killing enough waves, boss boxes spawn (these are what you want.) then monsters come again. You want to get those boxes enough times in the time limit (which is a few minutes.)

From what I recall, most every 10* rare will drop.

Gimmie a minute and I think there is a video of a EX mission I can find.

Yep: http://youtube.com/watch?v=FeadlOZSzcQ

They do have some 11* boards from boss boxes in the mission before the ex missions though.

Umberger
Sep 27, 2007, 07:11 PM
The missions are C-A. A has level 100 creatures which drop S ranks.

The mission itself has creatures with increased EXP, regular stats and drop rates.

After you complete the mission with an S rank (can be done on C, B, or A), you get to choose one of two EX missions featuring a different monster. Hordes of the particular monster will spawn with regular EXP, reduced stats (HP included) and increased drop rates. If you manage to kill all the monsters, you get "boss boxes" which have a chance to drop most of that planet's manufacturer's 10* weapons (I recall a few weapons were left out of that drop list, but I'm not 100% sure which ones...).

HFlowen

Right, Bil de axe, forgot. >.<

Mortalis

So, do you only get access to 4 EX missions? One for each planet? Or can you do the Event missions over and over again do get access to more EX missions?

The missions before the ex missions with bosses appear to have the same drop as the ones the bosses appear in S2. Except the Parum one it looks like De Ragan S drops or psu wiki has bad info.

So it looks like a lot of the 11* can drop but even at 500% the drop rate I doubt we will be seeing 100's of 11*s not counting bil de axes..

I am very excited about being able to finally get the chance to play neudaiz and linear line famitsu cup. Becaue I went to japan, I was unable to play either of those missions. I have been waiting 3 months now for this.

I can see it now though. There will be topics asking
"will we get the expansion?"
If the expansion does come out the street date, I doubt many people will play the new AoI missions. Afterall, there really isn't any point with 1up cup being out.

Acceleration
Sep 27, 2007, 10:25 PM
Ah, great news! Looking forward to this. My question is: what is the minimum amount of people required to do the regular missions and the EX missions? Can they be done with 2 players, and can you bring your PM or an NPC like Tonnio at all? I know they're trying to promote teamwork, so I don't expect these to be available solo - but is a duo a possibility?

You can probably solo it if the mission before it is possible. Problem is u got 3 min, adn the more enemies u kill the ebtetr the rewards! I'd rather do it with a party.

Max is 4 people though, and NPC's that we do not have cards for randomly join your party, like karen, the president, and Captain Curtz

Yes rare monster spawns come like crazy! So crazy that giga skill saves went to only 20k on the JP servers and we dont have sonic jaos like they did so our giga bullet saves will drop aswell.

What confuses me more is where the bitchers about the bitchers went. Before we got this info it seems that any thread askign about famitsu would get spammed with "stfu about famitsu nobody cares about the event," and yet we've gotten near 100% possitive feed back on this thread. Did the anti-famitsu people disitegrate?

Well i'm happy we're finally getting this event. now PSU ranks will actually be attainable. i was worried that i wasn't going to find any by time the exspansion came out. And this is a perfect reason/time to invite my friends to start playing!

One thing I am interested in (particular on PC/PS2 side, since that's where I play) is what impact this will have on the current overpricing of S-Rank items/boards. Hopefully, it'll let the poorer players have a stab at the market, rather than alienating the players who aren't loaded with h4xeta from any S-Rank items.

Mind, with 500% droprates, it might be hard to NOT get one http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

Then again, maybe SEGA would've just done it a different way, but at any rate, I think it would be nice if we did show our gratitude. You can either email the guys at 1UP, you can find their addresses in a copy of EGM or on the site in their profiles, or post in the thread that is started at their boards located here : http://boards.1up.com/zd/board/message?board.id=games&thread.id=388175

Does this mean that, say, I can solo Rainbow Beasts for my fuka, or Parum Relics for a svaltus sword, and expect a higher drop rate?

Dammit, I don't think there's much room for my support GT or Cast FT there. It's all about high damage as fast as you can dish it out. And everyone should worry about healing themselves since all 4 players are scattered all over the place. Guess I'll switch to FoG for a change.

I hope burn SE3 kills fast enough, though from that youtube video, ppl don't even wanna wait around for burn ticks to apply. Hmmmm....
I wonder NOT leveling up a shottie bullet for point blank damage was a mistake or not.

Here's a tip for everyone do not snyth or insert any srank boards you find during this event. Wait until we get the reward and get that huge system patch that increases snyth %. If we earn enough points along w/ the patch all 10* weapons could have 100% success.

Golto
Sep 28, 2007, 02:20 PM
I thought they fixed the redo 100% success glitch for NA/EU pc/ps2 anyway. We won't get to really abuse it like JPN pc/ps2 did.


10* ranged/melee non-kubara pre patch 75%
after patch 80%
10* melee non-kubara pre patch 85%
after patch 88%
snyth success % maxinum reward 25%, Japan got 20%. So I hope we can somehow reach the +20% success rate. Not too sure with the 360 population down by half when compared to during Firebreak from what I've heard.

Agnostic187
Sep 28, 2007, 02:23 PM
Did the patch come AFTER Bearclaws then? Because everybody exploited the 100% Success rate and made them all 50. If all S Ranks got 100%, it would get even worse :/

HFlowen
Sep 28, 2007, 02:24 PM
I'm fairly certain only special boards like the Halp and Bearclaw can actually reach 100%. Normal weapon boards cap at like 96 or so.

Agnostic187
Sep 28, 2007, 02:24 PM
Hope so.

Golto
Sep 28, 2007, 02:27 PM
Yes the fix was after most people did their bearclaws and the JPN pc/ps2 started to mass expolit it.

HFlowen with the bonus 10* non-kubara melee (80+20%=100%) for the JPN pc/ps2 did reach 100%. They had a few days of abusing this and a lot of 50% melee sranks were made. 50% crimsons and Two Headed Ragnus lol.

Wallin
Sep 29, 2007, 02:20 PM
Can someone clarify a few things for me?

1. Someone said before in this jungle of pages that you would get 30 Rappy Feathers for completing an A mission on S, does this happen every time, or just once?

2. What can you actually buy with Rappy Feathers, and for how much? The five colors for the Wedding Dress (for 20 feathers) and the Formalwear (for 20 feathers), and is that it?

3. Someone already mentioned this, if the drop rate affects every area, what's the point in doing the EX missions? Is there anything besides the boss boxes and 10* weapons, and the Rappy Suit?

4. Does it matter what difficulty you do the missions for to get the Rappy Suit, and can you somehow get more than one (running it with the same character multiple times, running it with different characters, etc.)?

Nope. This was fixed the very first day of rewards, obviously to prevent people from really flooding the market with 50%. The only reason why there were so many 50% is due to the absurd number of Ragnus and Crimson boards you could find. That's why the boards themselves at that point in time cost about 100k each. (I wanted to see for myself the 100% glitch, therefore I trashed a perfectly worthless crimson board the very first day.)

so what is all s ranks are 50% that means fortefighter will have good equpment and means they can be more usefull in a party. If the S ranks are glitchable prices will be shot down juts like bear claws but force and ranger weapons will still be worth a lot of cash ad this only applies to the 10* ones and a very few 11* ones

I think it's because finding S-ranks is one of the best ways to instantly become pretty well-off. You happen across a 10* you don't really care about? Synth it and make a good chunk of money, or trade it for that Unit you've always wanted. With S-ranks becoming far more common after Cup, you won't be able to do that anymore and the gap between the super-rich and the poor is going to become wider.

Not necessarily my opinion, but that's the way it is as I see it.
