[Ryna]

The 1Up Platinum Cup Event has gone live on the regional PC/Playstation 2 and XBox 360 servers. According to the <a href="http://phantasystaruniverse.jp/event/1upcup2007_en/">event webpage</a>, the event will run from October 19th to November 16th. Here is a breakdown of the mission release schedule:


<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" width="90%"> <tbody> <tr> <td align="center">Mission Name</td> <td align="center">Planet</td> <td align="center">Schedule</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">Invisible Road</td> <td align="center">Parum</td> <td align="center">Oct. 19 - Oct. 26, Nov. 9 - Nov. 16</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">United Front</td> <td align="center">Moatoob</td> <td align="center">Oct. 19 - Oct. 26, Nov. 9 - Nov. 16</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">Deadly Brilliance</td> <td align="center">Neudaiz</td> <td align="center">Oct. 26 - Nov. 2, Nov. 9 - Nov. 16</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">Elements of Unrest</td> <td align="center">GC / HIVE</td> <td align="center">Nov. 2 - Nov 16</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
The goal of each mission is to collect chips and clear it as fast as possible. If you earn a S-Rank in a mission run, your team will be taken to a special bonus mission counter. The enemies in these missions feature enhanced droprates and lowered HP. As the event progresses, additional bonus missions will be released. Once the current mission is completed, your score will be added to a global "Gurhal Check Point" total. Prizes will be unlocked as certain milestones are passed.

Also, Rappies appear quite frequently in these missions. The feathers dropped by them can be used in a limited-time item exchange quest. The list of items and their prices can be found on <a href="http://phantasystaruniverse.jp/event/1upcup2007_en/reward.html">this page</a>. As the event progresses, additional items, such as Formalwear, should be added to the list.
