Update Expected on Friday

GM Clumsy has mentioned that they are expecting to get an update this week. The details of the update still need confirmation. It is already expected that MAG will be gone.

There’s been a bit of confusion as to whats going on with the rewards so here is the final printout.

Maximum Attack G Rewards:

• 3 Star Luck
• Free Lumilass Makeovers
• 1/2 Price Off Clothes
• 15% Synth Bonus

Neudaiz Holy Light Festival Lobby

• Ank Bico
• Fireworks

All items listed above will occur during August 1st, 2008 to August 22nd, 2008. Sange & Grinder Boost will be given out at an unannounced date after August 22nd, 2008.

For the past few months, the words “maybe” and “unconfirmed” have caused quite a stir, but it seems Sega may be considering Phantasy Star Portable for an international release. There are no details yet on the changes that may take place including if the game will support Wi-Fi play for US and EU players.

“I think the crossover of the PSP ownership will work quite nicely, so we’re fairly hopeful we can make something out of it. It’s not going to be huge, but hopefully it’ll be interesting”

Only time will tell if we’ll truly get an official release. For now, Phantasy Star Portable has not been announced for international release. In other news, Phantasy Star Portable has reached #1 on Japanese Game Sales charts for August 3rd 2008. Beating Rhythm Heaven Gold in second place, which I highly recommend importing.

Phantasy Star Universe had a brief maintenance period to fix the 3 star luck which ended 1 week earlier than originally intended. Servers are now currently back up. Since there will be no formal updates until August 22nd, we will put some new unimportant content up on the site.

Every year Neudaiz celebrates the season with its Holy Light Festival. During this time, you’ll be able to see Neudaiz at night. As well as see Jaggo Actes spawn from various locations.

Where Can I get Light Festival Décor?

You can find this in the room decoration shop on Cylez City 2nd Floor. This item no longer needs synthing and can be bought premade.

What items drop from Jaggo Acte?

Jaggo Acte is a seasonal rare enemy that drops the exclusive Ank Bico. Ank Bico is an axe thats shaped like a hammer. Its one of the most strongest axes currently in the game. Ank Bicos drop with a random element attribute and random percentages.

Where Can I find Jaggo Acte?

As long as you enter a mission that has level 50+ enemies, you will be able to find Jaggo Acte in several locations. These locations include:

• Jaggo Acte Locations
  • White Beast B through S
  • Duel in the Ruins B through S2 *RECOMMENDED*
  • Caves of Ice B through S2
  • Desert Terror B Through S2
  • System Defense B through S2
  • Awoken Serpent B through S2

For map spawn charts consult PSUPedia for more information.

Since we did not get Neudaiz Guardians Boost Road during this seasonal event, we will not be able to hunt for the Ank Bico Board. The only mission that drops it would be White Beast S2. We will unfortunately have to wait until next year to get it.
