Though Ethan Waber had brought an end to the HIVE, a new threat to Gurhal lay on the horizon. A group of "human supremacists" known as the "Illuminus" have vowed to exterminate all non-human races. To make matters worse, individual Guardians are now becoming the targets of violent attacks, and former hero Ethan Waber is wanted for the attempted assassination of the GUARDIANS President. Are these events connected? As a newly appointed Guardian, and with instructor Laia Martinez as your guide, it's up to you to investigate these troubling circumstances. The fate of the Gurhal system rests in your hands.

()--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

Phantasy Star Universe is Episode 1 in PSU.

Ambitions Of The Illuminus is Episode 2, Episode 3, and im not sure if it goes up, since other episodes havent been released on American servers yet.

icearrow157 — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 14:38:20 CST

What Does Your Room Look Like?

Ambition of the Illuminus takes the My Room from Phantasy Star Universe and expands on every single element. Rooms that used to be solely for displaying trophies or wallpapers are transformed into full living spaces! Along with many types of new room decoration themes, and over 200 new room decoration items, there are new systems for moving your room to different planets, new shop search functionality, a new bulletin board, and new jukebox features.

New Layout and Placement Grid
The new item placement grid gives you the freedom to place items in any way you like. Along with more floor space to arrange your furniture and large trophy items, there are wall spaces for posters and banners and counter spaces for smaller items. Many tables and cabinets will allow you to place small items on top or inside of them for better display of your item collection.

New Remodeling Themes

Stop by the Variety Shop to get yourself new themes and looks for your room! AOI ones have the placement grids! Also, new jukebox allows you to change music played in your room! The theme in the pics above is called "Old Future".

Relocate To Other Planets WOWZA!

While you may feel at home with the view of space from the residential block of the GUARDIANS Colony, the GUARDIANS will now let you move into the living quarters of the Branches located on each planet. Not only will you change the scenery outside your windows but you will be able to enter and exit your room closer to your favorite missions.

Ambitions Of The Illuminus Extras

icearrow157 — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 14:22:03 CST

WARNING: MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR AOI

WARNING: MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR AOI

Ambitions Of The Illuminus starts off after the GUARDIANS Colony is attacked, and falls to Planet Parum. Resident Blocks didnt fall, but about 30,000 people and GUARDIANS was killed in the fall. The G-Colony fell into one of the citys on Parum. The crash left thousands of people homeless, and out of supplies like food and water. When I played AOI, in one of the chapters in the destroyed city a refugee woman said "I dont even have milk to give to my baby!" The destruction caused people to create refugee camps, and arent polite to GUARDIANS or AMF Military. In the same chapter, a Beast Woman said that they arent mad at GUARDIANS, there mad at us because we failed them. Due to the crash, only a few GUARDIANS remain and work individualy to clean up the mess they caused.

If you played PSU Story Mode, you'll know the famous ideal sister, Lumia Waber. In AOI, she joins the GUARDIANS, taught herself to use weapons, and is an eager trainee. She uses TECHNICS most of the time. I played a chapter in AOI and she was in it. She wears armor Maya gave her. The same armor Maya wore when she was training. During the chapter, she sees what discrimination people have against the races, and promises herself she'll do what she can to stop racism and restore peace again. When she sees Ethan again, he doesnt like the fact that shes a GUARDIAN, but later agrees with it and tells her to do her best. In AOI, you can choose to be her instructer (you get her partner card).

Laia Martinez plays a huge role in AOI. Shes your instructer, and goes to the destroyed city on Parum to find her father that she thinks might still be alive. Her father turns out to be Dallgun, the president, who died in the crash. Laia was adopted, in case you were puzzled with the last names. She becomes the president, as Ethan asks her to. They find a message in some rubble, showing her father ask her to lead the GUARDIANS, which persuades her to do it. In my opinion, she'll be a good damn president.

New items? Every update (almost every) theres new items added. New clothing, weapons, material items, enemies, and chapter missions. New weapon types added was... Axe, Madoog, Shadoog, Photon Whip(omg), Slicer, and a bunch of Photon Arts for those weapons. New fighting types were added as well. More info on the official PSU website.

Dont ask me about PSO, im a major fan for PSU and only talk about PSU. I never played PSO.

Like Ethan's new appearance in Ambitions? You can buy something extremely close to that coat in the PSU Clothing Store. Other new clothing and CAST-Parts added every event! Stay tuned on PSU to find out!

In my opinion, my favorite weapon type differs between the slicer, and the claws. There cheaper than the mighty (minimum of 1000 damage) axes, but also do fair damage and get you where you need to go. AOI added a few new types of weapons, but also more weapons of already existing types. Photon arts are a fan-fav in PSU so Sega didnt forget about adding new ones! Happy Hunting out there folks! (Ever try having and managing a website on a laptop that was dropped on the bathroom floor? Its pain man... Purified, extra fattened pain...) (P.S. I manage for my intense love for PSU!) (P.S.S. Yeah... I love it that much...)

PSU Special Abilities

icearrow157 — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 17:27:56 CST

TECHNICs: Photons are the catalyst for turning spiritual energy into various phenomenons. What was once identified as supernatural powers now can be explained scientifically by photons. These controlled phenomena have come to be referred to as TECHNICs.

()------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

Nanoblast: Only available to Beasts. A powerful Beast may be able to transform into a stronger, bigger form, also known as a "Nanoblast". They cant stay Nanoblasted forever though. NOTE: In Xbox Live mode, you need to reach lvl 20 to be able to get your Blast Badge. You may choose to have increased Accuracy, Speed, Power, or Defense.

()------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

SUV-Weapons: By using a long-distance, satellite-based nano transformer, a CAST can equip special equipment and launch an extremely powerful special attack. Only CASTs can use this skill. They can summon satellite-powered weapons to engage enemies. These weapons are obviously larger than normal, to increase power.

()------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

PSU Races

icearrow157 — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 17:04:18 CST

The most populous race in the Gurhal System, and the original race from which the others were derived. Humans tend to be all-purpose, with a good balance in abilities. They are not especially poor at anything, and can manage any kind of occupation. On the other hand, they don't excel in any one area. They primarily live on Parum.
Humans are the most populous race in the Gurhal System, but their position in society is not necessarily very high.
This can be seen in the distribution of power determined at the end of the 500-year war. The three planets are ruled by CASTs, newmans and beasts, and humans do not have a planet of their own.
The other races, while not as balanced as humans, are superior in specific areas. Rather than being considered the original race, humans are considered a sub par race with limited abilities.

Newmans were born of humans as the result of an attempt to create a superior species. Although their physical abilities fall short, their magic and spiritual abilities excel and they are masters of TECHNICs. Due to their diminutive physical stature, they are ill-suited for close combat. They primarily live on Neudaiz.
Newmans were born of humans as the result of an attempt to create a superior species. They far outpace the average human in terms of reaction time, intellect and memory, but their physical strength is uniformly weaker than those of a human. Due to an inferiority humans felt towards the newmans' extraordinary spiritual abilities, and the superiority of the humans' increased physical strength, human persecution of newmans ran rampant. To help quell this competitiveness, Neudaiz was designated the home of newmans and a mutual non-aggression pact was signed.
Newmans are known for their charming nature, however they are also known to be very exclusive. As a result of their increased spiritual abilities, they are much more sensitive than humans, and have the ability to read others' thoughts and feelings. Newmans have a tendency to avoid deep contact with strangers.

A race genetically engineered for hard labor and mining in a rigorous environment. They excel in physical strength and their specialty is close-quarters combat. Their weakness lies in weapons like guns and TECHNICs, where concentration is necessary. Some beasts have the ability to nanoblast, and transform into larger beast-forms. They primarily reside on Moatoob.
The beast was bred for hard labor and mining in the rigorous environment of Moatoob. For a long time, beasts were treated as slaves by humans. Using their physical prowess, beasts eventually escaped human rule and were able to gain an equivalent level of respect from the other races through commerce, taking advantage of the abundant natural resources on Moatoob.
A pleasant characteristic of beasts is their cordiality, however they are very easily excited. This disposition has led many beasts to lawless behavior, such as piracy. They are very mindful of their families and often open up to fellow beasts very easily. On the other hand, due a long period of discrimination, they are often quite cold towards CASTs.
Because there are so many hot-blooded beasts, conflict abounds in cities. As a safety precaution, it is forbidden for beasts to transform within city limits. Offenders are met with harsh punishment.

Originally created by humans for labor, artificially created life forms, CASTs, currently rule the planet Parum. Because their spiritual abilities are less than that of the other species, they are unskilled with TECHNICs, but they excel with guns due to their precise mechanical abilities. They also have the ability to wield huge weapons called "SUV weapons." They primarily live on Parum.
CASTs were originally created by humans as laborers, but problems arose when sentient CASTs began demanding rights. As a result of their war for independence, a system of CAST supremacy over humans was established.
After the CAST supremacy was established, Parum welcomed a period of overwhelming peace, unheard of in the days when the lands were divided by human-controlled governments. Ironically, the "dangers of machine rule" that were touted by human politicians during the war never manifested, and the reality is that the social system was welcomed by the majority of the public who wished only for peace.
They are machines, and hence rationalists. Their strong point is in management, but because of their inflexibility, they are disinterested in the subtleties of human emotion.

()------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

The Gurhal System is home to four races.

Each race was originally born of humans.

The Gurhal System's long history is filled with bitter struggles between the races.

To end the 500-year war, although humans are the most prominent race, they consented to being placed in the lowest social position.

One hundred years have passed since the Tripartite Treaty was signed.

At a glance, the Gurhal System appears to be at peace, but throughout the system there is racial prejudice and flames of war still smolder.

Phantasy Star Universe Storyline

icearrow157 — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 14:34:43 CST

The story unfolds in a faraway place... the Gurhal System.

The three planets that make up the Gurhal System are populated by humans and three other races born of the humans--Newmans, Beasts and CASTs.
Wars between the races raged for 500 years, but the races eventually settled into a moderately peaceful coexistence. But now, after a century of peace, certain devastation arrives ...

Seventeen-year-old Ethan Waber and his sister Lumia were attending the grand ceremony commemorating the centennial of the Gurhal System's Tripartite Treaty when suddenly a mysterious alien species known as the SEED launched a surprise attack.

The Alliance Military's armada was completely unprepared for the sudden invasion and was all but destroyed as the ceremony's attendees succumbed to panic.

In the ensuing chaos, Lumia is left behind in the rubble.
In order to save his little sister, Ethan borrows some equipment from a Guardian named Leo, and for the first time in his life, he's flung into a dangerous battle of life and death...

PSU Episode 1

In Story Mode, the player assumes the role of Ethan Waber, a young man enlisted in an interplanetary security force known as the GUARDIANS. With the help of numerous partners, he fights to uncover the mystery of the SEED, stands up against conspiracy, and grows up along the way as an epic story unfolds.

What is it that you fight to protect?

PSU Episode 2: Ambition Of The Illuminus

Though Ethan Waber had brought an end to the HIVE, a new threat to Gurhal lay on the horizon. A group of "human supremacists" known as the "Illuminus" have vowed to exterminate all non-human races. To make matters worse, individual Guardians are now becoming the targets of violent attacks, and former hero Ethan Waber is wanted for the attempted assassination of the GUARDIANS President. Are these events connected? As a newly appointed Guardian, and with instructor Laia Martinez as your guide, it's up to you to investigate these troubling circumstances.

The fate of the Gurhal system rests in your hands.

icearrow157 — Sun, 25 Nov 2007 15:35:49 CST

This is an Episode 1 Offline Story Mode Walkthrough by EJ.

Chapter 1: Of Light and Darkness

After the opening cut-scene when you gain control of your character, head to the elevator and take it to 4F. When on 4F, head to the Linear Line to trigger a scene, it is the last port station on the right. After that, another cut-scene will happen. Afterwards, make your way to the West to find the guy for some more scenes.

After the cut-scene, head back to where you started for another cut-scene, then return to the passage, and move to the North. Get past the doors and you will eventually find the Guardian and then more cut-scenes. After cut-scene, you will be able to fight at long last! Make sure to save at save marker! Defeat the enemies to open the doors. When you enter C-1 block, a second save marker and two brothers will be in front of you, heal yourself on the green light (healing plate). They will join your party. Continue the passage and defeat some more enemies. After the first room with enemies, there will be a small scene again. Go on to the West area, kill all enemies there to obtain the ID, use it to unlock the door to North. Obtain few more ID to unlock the door in Block C-2 and C-3 as well.

If you want an S rank, In C2 head right and clear all of the enemies from the rooms and then head to the left rooms, but for a quick finish, head left to go straight to the next block.

Run down to the middle where the blue arrow is at to see another cut-scene, after scene you will be graded on that mission. Save your game if you want. Head to the South, you will be ordered to use the Goggle for the blocks. Set it to your action palette. Once you spotted the blue circle, change back to your weapons and destroy it to save the NPC. Follow the way to South can find more blocks, use the same way to destroy them. When you come to the next save marker, use it to save your game. When you reach the boulders blocking the way a scene will start and after the scene a Boss, which really is a mini-boss, will start.

- Seed Vance
When the battle starts, avoid the tentacle, which should be easy to spot since white smoke appears before they come from the ground. Also when it rears back, move away from it since it is about to swing with it's tentacles. Avoid the Foie since it hurts since you should be at level 4 by now. Just get close and spam rising strike over and over and you will win easily. After the battle, another cut-scene will be shown and that will end Chapter 1, huzzah!

Chapter 2: Typical Lives

After several scenes, tutorial on the using storage will ask if you'd like to read it or if you want or skip to move on, and storage in your PM will be available after scenes. There's also a save marker around this room. Once you're done, leave this room. Now go to the Guardians HQ on 5F. You'll notice the elevator is under maintenance, so you have to take the slope to above level. On 3F, you'll encounter Lumia. After the scene, go up the slope that's closest to you. On 4F, you can use the save marker and photon charger.

At 5F, talk to the girl by the counter, then back to 4F after some scenes. Go to the right front exit (blue board PPT Gate), select Planet Parum. After the scene, head to East Area which is on your right, then take the left route where the photon charger and save marker are near, and enter the Branch of Guardians and talk to the girl by the counter. Afterwards, head to the West section. On your way, when you get to the Central Section a small scene will play. In the West Area, going to the right side will trigger a scene and Karen Erra will explain about the party details. For the testing, talk to Karea Erra to join the party, then talk to her again to release her. Afterwards, tell Karen Erra to join the party, then go Central Section and find Hyuga Ryght to join the party as well. When prepared, go to Eastern most to Raffon Plains to start the mission.

This mission begins in Block A-2. Go North killing the enemies or run pass them and head for the open green door, your choice. When you get to Block A-3, defeat all enemies. For the ID, unlock the laser that's blocking the way. In A-4, if you want to kill all enemies, head to the left and destroy the boxes to make more appear. If not, head to the left path instead. After clearing the room, another split path is shown. Taking the left path, head to an area with a healing plate and extra enemies while going right. Head straight to next area.

After block A-4, you will be at the Military Field Base. Head straight for a cut-scene. Now take the South-East door the Block B-1. After the scene, head straight. You will see the healing plate, photon charger on the left, and save marker on the right. Assumed your HP is not full for now, better use the healing plate to restore you and your partners HP. Once you've done, get into the cavern to Block B-2.

After the scene in Block B-2, use the Goggles to scan on the spheres around the flaming Seed plant. After scanning, use the photon eraser on the Zoma until it turns gray, now you can destroy it with your weapon or leave it alone, it doesn't matter. Move on to the near area. Like before, defeat all enemies for the ID to unlock the laser or door. If there's a panel beside the laser, just kill all enemies to unlock it, remembering on the way to not step on the fire area. In Block B-3, towards the last room, you will face the Seed Vance for the ID key, so save some PP to spam rising strike. Also note that if you want S rank, you need to look for the orbs and destroy all the Seed in the area.

After entering the Farm, a scene will play. Afterwards, an enemy spawn will appear, kill them and run to door to save and heal. You will get to Block C-1 when you enter the door. Head left to get a scene and to defeat all enemies. Go back to where you start and head straight. Clear a few rooms and you will eventually be in C-2. After first room, head to the cavern. Head left for a small scene and an ID key, then head straight from the area to unlock the gate and eventually reach C-3. In Block C-3, make sure save your game on the save marker before going through the door.

-Mini - Gol Dolba
The boss will mainly attack from its front area, so try to attack it from the side or back. Also, if you leveled your rising strike you should be able to stun it and keep spamming it to eventually beat it easily. Run away when it's raised up it's legs, this move can damage all targets around it. When the targeting on you, lure it close to your teammates and let them attack the boss. Be prepared to heal yourself! If your teammates die, keep running to the further area so they can revive themselves. Also, beware - it is a King, so it's defense and attack are stronger than a normal one.

Chapter 3: Relics

After the scene, leave the room and head to the 5F Guardian HQ. Notice, now you can use the elevator. In 5F, talk to the girl by the counter and choose both option to learn some details about Free Mission and Type Select. Leave for 4F, find Lumia and Hyuga around the right front side. You will obtain Hyuga's party card, and you can summon him to join the party. Afterwards, go to Planet Parum PPT Gate and head to Planet Parum to find Karen. You will then obtain her partner card, call her to join the party too. Enter the Guardian Branch and talk to girl at counter. After the dialog, enter the Flyer base to do the mission there to pass time and then go back to the Guardian Branch for a cut-scene. Afterwards, head to the Flyer Base and pick the Relics inquiry mission.

It begins in Block D-1, finish off all enemies for the ID to unlock the doors. Head left on the split path to clear out those rooms after that head back and take the right path towards the other rooms. Clearing the left room is required for an S rank, If you don't wish to do that then head right instead. While going to the East, there's an ID on the separated part, you should take the warp to obtain it. You will find another separated part which you have to kill all enemies there for the ID. Keep going through D-2 will reach to the base, then head to North-East, past the save marker. Come to Block E-1. Go until E-2 to face the boss, and save your game in E-2 before entering the fight.

- De Ragan
The boss is the Dragon. (if you played PSO you should know this will be somewhat easy) If you’ve been using you photon arts and leveling your Rising Strike skill, it will be easier. The boss element is fire, so make sure you have the ice brand that dropped from the enemies. If not, then use the saber you have which is non-element. When the battle begins, run to the side and spam your rising strike on it. Watch it's head because it will tell you when it will use it's fire breath, so try to avoid it. When it starts using it's fire breath, run under it’s head and spam rising strike. When it's in the air, get close and use your handgun by going first person mode on it. Avoid it's aerial attacks and keep shooting until it lands and spam your PA on it. Rinse and repeat until it's dead.

You will come to Block C-3 after defeating the boss. Enter the passage to A-1. Run forward for a scene, follow doctor for another scene. Back to the middle, go forward, enemies are slightly stronger (lvl 11) than before, especially the Golmoro monster is quite annoying. I recommend running and rising strike them in a group, that is if you have it on 16+ by now which you should have it. After the first door, head straight to a dead end room to fight some enemies and a Polavohra. Attack from the side with your PA to kill it. In Block A-2, you will face Paravohila, I recommend attacking it from its back, since when hitting the back with rising strike, it will fall to ground. Likewise, kill all enemies to unlock the next area. A split path will appear after the door. Take the right path to kill more enemies and get ID, then afterwards take the left path to head to A-3. At the final room for A-3 you will encounter two Polavohra. Needless to say, you should focus on defeating one of them. After this, you can find the healing plate to restore you HP.

Once you're done, enter B-1, move forward and a cut-scene will play. Defeat all the enemies, and move on to Block B-2. You can find another healing plate and save marker. Go to right side to enter the boss fight.

When the battle begins, run to the back and start spamming your Rising Strike. Even though you may get hit by it area attack, you should be able to defeat it in no time if you keep spamming your PA. Also note it is a king version and it has higher defense and attack than a normal one.

When the boss is charging it’s laser or fire, run to either side to dodge its straight attack. The boss has a move that can knock down all targets in its range, and it will perform this move when it get hits or you're close to it. However it can only damage the small area, so make sure you run away after hitting it one or twice, then get close to it and attack again after it does the move. You can also lure it to charge the laser, so that you can have more chances to close to it.

After the battle is over, a cut-scene will play. After the scene, you can ignore all the enemies here, or fight them for more exp; you can choose. I decided to fight them for more money and exp. Keep going forward, eventually you will get to the Block A-1, run up the stairs on the right to end this chapter.

Chapter 4: Rogues

After the cut-scene, you can learn more info about the doctor and The Endrum Collective through Pete or just head out to meet with Lumia. When you meet Lumia, lead her to 3F and enter the clothes shop (Red board). After the scene, go down to 2F and enter the armor shop (Light Blue). Afterwards, lead her to the weapon shop which is beside the armor shop, watch some scenes.

Now you will receive a call from Karen. Call up Karen and Hyuga to join the party, then head to 4F and go to Planet Parum. Move to the Branch of Guardians at the East, talk to the girl by the counter. After the scene with the old man, Lucaim Nav, call him to join the party as well. Now go to the West Area, down to the bottom and head to the Linear Train Home, select the only mission here.

After several events, go until the next section. You will be fighting Dillia Greenas similar to the Seed Vance expect it is fire base and it just move a little faster but is still easy to kill with little trouble with the spamming of your PA on it.

Now Karen and Hyuga come with you. Heal yourself on the healing plate, then save the game if you want. Go to the North, the next section will encounter enemies which you must defeat. When the enemy goes down, stay away from it, because it will explode! Beware of the third group, there's two lasers which will shoot you at the front, you can destroy them before focusing on the enemies. Continue to the next section and defeat a few more of the same enemies to end the mission, and watch a scene.

Afterwards, open the door in front can find a healing plate and save marker. On the way to South, encounter some enemies, remember the robots can explode when it is destroyed.

When you come to No.4 Car, make sure to heal your party with the healing plate, the following enemy is stronger. Talk to the NPC beside the save if you need some weapons or healing items. Keep going to South, kill the enemies that are blocking your way. Until the No.7 Car, explore all of the area and defeat the enemies. After the scene, photon charger, save marker and healing plate all here, fully restore your HP here.

Next destination, go back the ways where you came (North). Some enemies can be ignored, but some you must defeat them to unlock the door. No.5 Car got an optional area, you can obtain the ID from the enemies if you want some items. Come to No.4, healing yourself and restore your PP is recommended. If you have low healing item, buy some from the NPC here, at least prepare 5 of it for the next battle. Once you've done, continue to the North.

- Vol Brothers
1 on 3 match, the leader can attack you with his technics or even freeze you, so I suggest to kill the leader for first. Blast your PP skill to knock him down, keep chasing him and attack. When he's going to escape from your range, perform your skill to knock him down again, make sure you don't be surrounded by other. Don't hesitate to heal yourself when necessary. When their leader goes down, focus to kill either one of them, up to you. Defeat the remaining.

About Extra Mode: This chapter ends after the battle, and "Extra Mode" will be unlocked. The Extra Mode allow you to create and customize your character. The game play status is still depending on the Story Mode, let say your game just reach to Chapter 5, and the event to Neudaiz Planet has not been triggered yet, so in the Extra Mode, you can't go Neudaiz Planet.

Now you appear in the Branch of Guardians and obtained Maya Shidow's party card. Talk to the girl in counter, leave here and go to the flyer base at the left. Call Hyuga, Karen and Maya join the party. Take the flyer and enter the mission.

Start in Block A-1, go forward and turn right can see the save marker. Take the door that's near to Block A-2. Defeat the enemies to unlock the doors, come to A-3, then A-4 to trigger an event. Now defeat the only enemies here, very easy, shoot it before it comes closer, you can kill it instantly. After that, go forward and take the path to right, another scene will trigger in Block B-1.

A healing plate and a save marker is here, heal your party on the plate, save your game if you want, then open the door to Block B-2. After the scene, use the Goggles to scan that red circle on the ground, then equip Photon Reflector and stand on the red circle, and shoot the crystals around, then destroy the spheres inside.

After that, follow the path to the next area. Beware, the enemy is stronger than before, and all of them can blow ice which can freeze you. If you get frozen, you might get some more damage from other blows, so be sure always dodge their ice blowing. This place is quite long to go for the next healing plate, and you will face lot of enemies, so make sure to work well with your team. Pay attention on the items drop by enemies, you might get Tangou Bow (Atk 459) in this section, I got two of them in my run.

When you get past Block B-3, you will trigger a scene, you can also find the save marker and healing plate. Run forward for another scene, then head to right side (North-East) will come to Block C-1.

After the first warp point, you will come to a two way junction. Basically you just need to follow the left path, however if you go through to right path, you can find some items and Halisen (Atk 190), which is quite good weapon for your current level. To get past the right laser, you need 3-ID. To get this ID, go back to the area where you warped here just now, you can see two other warp points there, one will bring you back to the previous area, another one will bring you to the 3-ID area, it was the South one, so just take it to obtain this ID, then take the following warp to return. After the right laser, destroy the crates for the items, and you will trigger out some monsters, so prepare to fight.

When you done, follow the left path which leads to North-East, defeat some more enemies for the ID to unlock the door to Block C-2. Now follow the path until you get to the branch, there's a locked door to North-West and another leads to South-West. Take the South-West path and you will see a small cave on the right hidden an ID. After defeating the enemies in the cave, pick up the ID inside, then back to the area before and use the ID to unlock the door to North-West. Continue defeat more enemies to next area. After this section, you can find a save marker, use it to save your game before the boss fight.

Before the actual boss is shown, you have to defeat three flying monsters, TenGhog with only Hyuga helps. Focus on one of the side, kill them one by one. Maybe using a gun is better when it goes to fly. Afterwards, a scene shows the boss, OnmaGohg appear.

- OnmaGohg
Awhile after the battle begins, Maya will come to help, but she's probably the first person KO'd. :P The boss is a flying type, you can attack when it's landed on the ground, and normally it will lands after three attack in the air. Keep on running while the boss is flying, you can dodge all its attacks easily, also try to track it while dodging. Once it's landed, take this chance to reduce its HP, the time is not much before the boss flies again, so blast it with your skill. You can also use a gun.

Chapter 6: Captives Of Moatoob

As of now, you can change your character’s costume. Go to the costume shop at 3F if you want some new clothes. Now what you need to do is find Hyuga at 1F, he's near the fountain. After this scene, go 5F and talk to the counter girl to unlock the Moatoob PPT. Back to 4F, move to right which is the Moatoob PPT Gate, take it to Moatoob Planet. Once you've gotten there, go right and enter the Branch of Guardians for some events.

Obtain Leogini and Tonnio Rhima's party cards. Leave the Branch of Guardians, then call Leogini, Hyuga and Tonnio to join the party. After that, take the flyer at the right to start the mission. Before this, prepare your inventory, make sure you have enough healing items - at least have 20. There are some shops opposite of the photon charge and save marker. Mission begins at Block A-1 with a save point. The enemies aren’t that strong, but you will face many, just spend some time to finish them off. Make your way to North-East where Block B-2 is, and heal your team on the plate and save the game. Now the path to right (East) actually leads to a dead end, but you can find some healing items there. Head North, then turn to East, kill the enemies for the ID. In the last area, you will face two Cog Nad monsters at once, focus to kill off one of them, otherwise you might have some problems.

Come to Block B-2, go right (East) from the junction and you will end up with some treasure. Go left (North-West). Eventually, you will come to another junction, take the warp point on the left to North area, defeat all enemies for the ID. Return to the junction and go East where the healing plate is by, unlock the door with the ID you get. Get pass the passage, you can find some green doors in the following area. Defeat all enemies inside and outside, you will get two ID-4 and one ID-5. Now head to West area and unlock the door with ID-5 for some additional items. Afterwards, open the door to the North with the two ID-4.

Reach to North area obtain ID-3 after killing all enemies there. Now use ID-2 to unlock the door to South for some extra items. Use ID-3 to unlock the door to North.

In block B-2, cross the bridge to right to spawn some enemies and defeat them for the ID-1, also beware of two hidden mines on the bridge. Afterwards, get past the door to North, there are also two hidden mines. Defeat more enemies for the ID-2. Now go North and use the ID-1 for the area with some items, use the remaining ID to North-East. Reach to the Inner Area to face the three brother that you fought before.

- Vol Brothers Part 2
1 on 3 match again. Like the battle before, take down the leader (pink head) first. Knock him down with your skill combo, hit him some more before he awakes, then use your skill attack to knock him down again. Repeat until the leader goes down, same time be sure keep up your HP with the healing items. Until the last target, you can just use your gun to finish him off, saving some PP.

Now don't relax yet, the YG-01Z bugs are coming after the boss fight, however your partners are back in the team. Just keep fighting with these bugs until the scene, then finish off all the bugs. After the scene in Block B-2, you will get to the other section and face more bugs and bugge, sometimes shooting can be more useful for these enemies. Keep on going until the save marker, photon charger and healing plate area, make sure use them before going on to the next boss fight at North.

- Grina Beats x3
This battle opponents is three Grina Beat, needless to say, focus on killing one of them. At the start, get close to them and give them a few hits, run away before they surround you. When they're still in group, shoot them as much as possible, be sure to always stay in a distance with them so that you can clearly see their moves. Lure one of them separate out the group and close combat with it. When the others come, keep a distance again. After awhile, Hyuga and Leogini will come for help (they won't appear at the beginning of the battle). If you see all Grina Beats disappear, stop attack for a moment, make sure find out where their locations are after warping. Now they will be shielded and dash to many area randomly, and you have to dodge them until they stop, then continue the fight. When you run out of PP, and if you don't have any charging items, you can run around a Grina, so that your teamate could attack the Grina. Again, don't fight them in group, their attacks are quite powerful, and also don't keep the close combat too long, you should always run and attack to avoid some damage.

Chapter 7: Photon Sealing

Head outside to find Lumia. Go 4F to Neudaiz Planet PPT Gate, and go to the Branch of Guardians for some scenes. After that, leave the room and call up Hyuga and Maya join the party. Exit the branch and go left for another scene, then select the first mission.

Run down to the river and ride the boat there. Dodge the mines and collect the yellow items to boost up, and have fun! Get past Block A-3 to end this, a scene will be triggered in A-4.

Afterwards, fight all monsters in Block B-1 for the ID, do the same thing in B-2. The enemies are the same as before, but with a higher level. Also be sure you dodge the ice blow, especially when close combat, once you get frozen, you will get a lot of damage. In Block C-1, you can see the save marker, save your game before going for the boss fight.

- OmnGhog
OnmaGhog, the annoying flying type boss you fought before. Dodge its attacks until it lands on the ground, then attack. Repeat until it dies, exactly like how you did before.

After the scene, come to Block D-1, and heal your team with the healing plate on the left. Afterwards, kill the enemies to unlock the next area. The tough place is the cave in D-2 where you have to fight two Kamatouz in once, I suggest you save the PP for this battle. Do remember that you should stay away when the monster casts the area blizzard. Some areas seen have branch routes, but you will go through all routes anyway, so just explore everyway for the ID. Eventually you will get to the scene in D-3, then enter the door in front after defeating the enemies.

In block A-1, the healing plate, save marker and photon charger are all here. Make sure to fill up the PP before moving on, the following enemies would be tougher. In the Block A-2, you can see there's a passage leads to East, follow it. That way, you can find the Real Handgun (Atk 132), but of cause you should defeat the enemies guarding it. Take the passage to the North. After the scene in A-3, you will come to A-4, follow the only way here for another scene. In the room, you can find healing plate and save marker, leave here when you are done.

You’ll now appear in Block B-1, just take down the two enemies at the start, and go until the next section. In B-2, there's a healing plate at the North, you will face some enemies before you can get to it though. Afterwards, head to South-East for B-3, a save marker can be found at the beginning of B-3. After saving, use the door at the right front corner.

- Boss
There's a trick for this giant machine: as you can see, it will try to face you to attack, so keep running to its back and attack. First, you can try to lure the boss to attack you, then immediately run to its back, and hit the boss and stay in between its two blocks (legs?). If you’ve done it correctly, the boss will keep turning, and you will be hitting the block (leg). Now use this chance to attack the boss as many as you can. If the boss warps to other area, do the same tactic, and continue reducing its HP. Again, mostly the boss will attack when it's spotted you, and some moves are powerful, so make sure you don't stop moving in front of the boss. Equip two-handed blade if you’ve got one. Also, the Tornado Break skill works well on this boss. But if you don't have it, just spend a little more time to finish it off.

Chapter 8: In Mellvore's Wake

Begin with the mission. In Block A, where the start point, go destroy all the crates in the right area to spawn the enemies, defeat them for the ID.

Start at Block A-1 with the save point, go North-West to A-2, then head to North-East to B-1, you will pass a healing plate before here.

In Block B-1, you need to operate 10 switches, the first switch will be done in the scene, so there're 9 remaining. First, take the left path (West), go pass the junction with laser gate, you can actually find 3 switches. After that, back to the laser gate and follow the opposite path of it. In the end can find another one. Run up the slope, operate 2 more switches in both side, then go the right side operate another switch in the next corner. Afterwards, you will come to the slope to down, before going down, head to the opposite side for 9th switch. The last switch in at the bottom, also defeat all enemies down there for the ID.

Lately the Lv 55 SEED form appear, besides it has stronger attack and defend point, it couldn't be knocked down, so you can't hit it in a row, better keep moving your position.

After some rest, come to next area, begin at A-1. You need the ID to unlock the area, so just defeat all enemies. Some events happen after A-2, go South can see the save marker, and there's a shop NPC nears it. Continue to South for reaching to B-1, keep going until C-1 got another save marker, go North for C-2, the boss await.

- De Ragnus
A giant dragon with two heads, slow moving speed but powerful attack. When the dragon is moving, your better keep away from it, otherwise you will get hits in combo or even been knocked down. Shoot it from the side when it's moving, close combat when it's stop. Normally it stops for attack, so make sure pay attention on that two heads, move aways when the dragon starting moving again. Until you've reduced certain amount of the boss' HP, it will flies, now you just need to run. Once it's landed down, continue attacks.

Chapter 9: Hot SOS

First off all, return to Guardians Colony, back to your hostal in 1F for the scene. Now head to 5F, talk to the girl in the counter for several scenes.

In A-2, follow the right path and you should see the door require ID-1 to unlock, it can be found after defeating the enemies at North-East. On the way to this group of enemies, right after you cross the bridge, turn right, there's some crates and rocks behind, search behind the rock for the ID-3. You can check the map for the actual location, the ID-3 shown as red dot. It was used to unseal the treasure area later. Continue going as usual, until you've passed the ID-2 gate. Now turn left can find some barrels and crates blocking by the laser gate, just unlock it with the ID-3 that you got just now. One of them is the Dual Slasher, the dual sword with Atk 174.

- Boss
Since the arena is very wide, trust you won't have trouble on dodging the shots and attacks from the boss, even in close combat. Remember the final boss in chapter-7? This boss is a similar thing like that, keep your position on its side while attack, especially when the barries was builded, you may delay its next attack by doing so. Pay attention when the boss raised up its hands, it would damage all targets in the area when it smack on the ground, be sure you get away now. Lately it will light up the blue blade at the legs, now you can only damage his hands. Use more on shooting if you have the guns.

This chapter end here.

Chapter 10: Rie Of Divination

Begins with the scenes, and now you're in Moatoob. Back to Guardians Colony, choose 5F. Speak to the girl in the counter for some scenes. Go down to 4F found Lumia. After this, take the PPT Gate to Neudaiz Planet, then head to the huge circle building (Communion). You will come to Guardians Meeting Room, before you left here, talk to Lou and invite her join the party. Now move to the flyer just located at left of the Guardians Branch, select the first mission.

After scene at A-2, Kanal and Mirei join the team as well. Now the enemies can use ice to attack, like those you faced before, they can freeze you anytime, once you got freezed, you might get combo hits, beware of it. Perform more your attacks from side or back.

Go through A-3, lately reached A-4. In this area, search the left (West) area for the ID-2, the ID-2 laser gate is near the area where you get ID-1 later, and it leads to some healing items.

Eventually come into the temple, Block A-1. There's no enemies here, just get pass here to A-2. As usual, collect the ID and unlock the doors for this area. In A-3, you can find the healing plate at North-West. After collecting two ID-1 here, go East to next area. Get pass Block A-4 likewise, come the the place in front of Holy Ground can find the save marker. Following area face a Lv 55 mini boss, make sure you save your game. As for the mini boss, you should find out his attack style and tactic here, you will encounter more of this enemy later.

Afterwards, watch the scene at the Illusion Altar. Go near North-East, defeat the enemies and then destroy 4 seeds here. Remember you have to scan it with the Goggle, the seeds are invisible before you use the Goggle. Lou will shock them when you discover them, or you can do it yourself with the Photon Eraser. Once it turned gray, destroy it with your weapon, then destroy the giant seed too. Also remember, all these giant seeds you found later, each of it has 4 seeds around, and you must destroy all of them before you can destroy the giant seed.

Likewise, you need to unlock the doors or laser gates with the ID accordingly. Destroy the seed at where you can see. Block B-3 is the last area with seed. After that, watch the scene in C-1, then use the save, healing plate here, as well as the ??? shop is here. Buy some healing items for the next battles.

Hence, go North face some enemies. Take the ID to unlock the door. North-West path leads to D-1 where you don't need to go, so just move on to North until C-2 to face the boss of this chapter.

- Magashi
Most of his moves can damage all targets near his range, so don't recommend close combat. Somehow you could hit him once or two time and run away before he counterattack. Try run to his back and attack him from behind if possible. The best chance to attack is when the boss targeting on Lou, if she was down, it's pretty hard to hit him without getting damage, so just run around until she revives herself, then continue the tactics.

Chapter 11: Unification Point

After serveral scenes, find Lumia at 5F, the Guardians HQ. Also talk to the girl in counter for more scenes. Leave for 4F, go to the Moatoob Planet PPT Gate, take it to enter the Branch of Guardians. Talk to the girl in counter to enter meeting room. Now new mission available, call up Tonnio and Leoginio join with you, and buy some healing items before starting the mission.

Thing to notice is about the enemies of next chapter, all of them were belong to Dark elemental type, which is weak against Light. So you're using the gun, or other weapon can mix with Light elemental attack, buy the Light element photon and use as many as possible on this mission to get higher level it. Once you've done, Select the first mission in the flyer base.

After scene, enter the tank in front. To control this tank, press "X" for accelerator, "Square" to fire and "Circle" to leave or re-enter the tank.

Basically it's same like the one you faced before, just use the same tactic to defeat it.

Chapter 12: Life Choices

Begin with the scenes, start at 5F Guardians HQ. Go to the entrance trigger a scene with Leoginio and Tonnio. Afterwards, go 4F and travel to Parum Planet through the PPT Gate, you need to go Alliance Base which is near the GRM Shop, so just enter the GRM Shop. Get close to the guard in front of the base for some events. After that, head to Central Section found Lou. Now take the PPT Gate to Moatoob Planet.

After scene in Moatoob Planet, go to the Inn for another scene. If you don't know where is the Inn, just go right from the PPT, until the junction with the save point and photon charger, get pass them and go until the end, there's the Inn. Afterwards, travel to Neudaiz Planet and head to the Gurhal temple (the building with a big circle). You will back to Guardian Colony after the scene.

Now you're going to the final battle, and the enemies you will fight are much more tougher than previous chapter, so you should prepare lot of healing items and better weapons. For the items, you can find it easily in any shops. As for the weapons, you may survey the shop from different companies to find the suitable weapon for your own. Same as the armor, different company shop has slightly different quality.

After all, go Guardians Colony 4F, enter the Dock Space Ship to the final mission, remember, you have to enter alone. Inside the ship, talk to everyone for some scenes.

The mission starts at Inside HIVE A-1, and you will team with Karen at the beginning. Go North to HIVE A-2, start encountering enemies. Keep moving your position during the fights, and don't ever fight them in a group, do remember currently you have only Karen in the team. In the middle area, you can see a branch routes there, North-East leads to some healing items, but you will also face more enemies, South-East leads to A-3.

Inside HIVE A-3 will trigger a scene, Hyuga and Maya will join the party. Now follow the East path until next section. Although you have extra two partners from now, but still don't become the vanguard, and don't be surrounded by the enemies, keep these in mind for the following battles.

Come to HIVE A-4, you will find another branch routes. Move to North is your destination, however, a rank-A two-handed blade, Hansou (Atk 585) can be found at the Eastern most area. Of cause, you wouldn't get it easily, you have to defeat all enemies there to unlock this weapon.

Passed A-4 reach to B-1, and there's branch routes again. South-East leads to C-1, which is a dead end area, exploring this area can find some healing items, of cause lot of enemies there. Head to North will trigger a scene, then fight the mini boss.

Afterwards, you will back to B-1, use the healing plate to restore your HP and better save you game also. Before leaving, buy more healing item from the shop, recommend buy the Atk, Def, Vit boosting items too.

Once you've done, head to West. In B-2, go to South-West. B-3, make your way to North. On the way will face more groups of enemies, some were very tough especially the group in B-3 North area, make sure you work well with your team. Reduce enemy's HP with shooting attack in a distance, sometimes you can even shoot them down before close combat. But some stronger enemies got lot of HP, you must close combat with them, so make sure you have PP to perform your skill moves.

Eventually come to HIVE B-4, use the save marker here, then move on the North for the final boss battle.

- Dark Falkis Go forward until you tight to him, start attack. You might probably get pushing away by the blue smock, but nevermind, you won't get much of damage from this stupid move. When the boss cover himself, means the time you can't damage him, run abit further from him, a giant hand would smack on the ground and then push everyone away. It's easy to be dodged actually, if the hand down at left, you just need to stay at the right side, if the hand down at right, just stay at the left side to evade it. And before the hand starting pushing, you can hit it serveral times. Continue attack when the sector is clear. Always stay aside of his facing direction while attacking, the boss will shoot out the laser with large damage, but it's only hit on the straigth direction, so if you attack him from the side, you don't need to worry about this move, just beware the giant hand. If you've been pushed away by the blue smock again, needless to say, you should run close to the boss and continue attack.

- Dark Falkis Form 2 After defeating the first form, now will be bring to the other arena face against the second form. He's became something like scorpion, the weakness points are the body and the head on the tail. But most of the times you won't able to hit his body, so just focus on the head. Attack the boss from the side is still better, so move and keep your position at the side. Hitting on the tail would deal lesser damage, but if you have no chance to close with the head, you can deal some more damage on his tail. Certain moves from the boss will have different camera view, remember when the camera view goes far away, make sure heal yourself, at least keep over 90% HP before the comet down! There's another move would probably shown before the comet, which the boss will go away for moment, then return and try to scratch you from below. When this move over, he will become like up side down, now you faster close to him and blast whatever to his body for more damage. Some other moves isn't that powerful or can be dodge easily, no need to worry much, just keep your HP bar in green is okay. [==============================================================]

Partner Machinery

icearrow157 — Sun, 25 Nov 2007 14:50:46 CST

In Phantasy Star Universe, MAGs are replaced with "Partner Machinery." Partner Machinery has been improved to include new abilities and evolutions. This guide will give a brief overview of what you can expect from Partner Machinery...

~Overview~

After a Guardian graduates from the academy, they are assigned a Partner Machinery. A Partner Machinery is used for item, mission, and information management. They normally reside in your character's apartment, unless you take it with you in your adventures. You can use them to store raw materials as well as produce items. Ethan's Partner Machinery in Story Mode is named PETE.

~Item Management~

In Phantasy Star Online, an Item Bank was available to hold extra items. The Item Bank has been abolished in Phantasy Star Universe and item maintenance is now handled by the Partner Machinery. You will be able to deposit items and withdraw them, just like you used to at the Item Bank.

~Raising And Evolving~

By giving your Partner Machinery weapons and items, its stats will grow. It will transform into various forms as it gains levels through stat growth. As your Partner Machinery transforms, it will be able to create better items. The items it produces can also change depending on how it was raised. Once the Partner Machinery has transformed into its humanoid form, it will present you with its partner card. You will now be able to summon your Partner Machinery and take it with you into battle.

~Item Synthesis~

Using item synthesis, you will be able to create a wide variety of items, including rare and expensive weapons. Here is an overview of how the system will work. First, you must find the "board" for the item you want to make and give it to your Partner Machinery. You will be able to find boards while fighting or by them from a specialty store. Next, you must gather the ingredients necessary to make the item. Like boards, you can buy ingredients from the store or find them while adventuring. After that, talk to your Partner Machinery and ask it to make the desired item. Depending on the level of your Partner Machinery and the item being made, there is a chance the synthesis may fail. It is worth noting that you can only synthesize a certain number of items for any given recipe. Also, you can synthesize multiple items, such as 10 dimates, at one time.

As you progress through Story Mode, you will eventually receive a "synthesis kit." This will allow your Partner Machinery to combine and create new items for you. The items your Partner Machinery is best at making will change as it evolves. Also, you will be able to use item synthesis in Network Mode.

Guardians Colony: The GUARDIANS organization owns and controls the GUARDIANS Colony. The GUARDIANS Colony had modest beginnings as a small colony purchased as the home base for the organization. As the GUARDIANS grew larger, the colony was further developed into the huge residential colony it is today, with over a million permanent residents. The GUARDIANS travel all across the Gurhal System for missions, using a transportation system called "Vector Tracks" to reach each of the three planets. The Vector Tracks canbe easily recognized due to their rows of ring-shaped control units.
Clyez City: Clyez City can be found at the center of the GUARDIANS Colony and is where the GUARDIANS Headquarters are located. There are multiple cities in the GUARDIANS Colony that are very similar in design to Clyez City.
The Linear Line: The Linear Line is an antigrav transportation system that traverses the inside of the GUARDIANS Colony. It is also used on other colonies and on extremely large ships.
()------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

Parum: Once a planet rich in natural abundance, it was driven to desolation over time due to human settlement, CAST production, and a war that lasted 500 years. Much of the nature found today has been artificially created. Tarcus City, the site where the Tripartite Treaty was signed, is the planet's capital. The economic center, however, is Holtes City, where the Alliance Council building is located. Alliance Military headquarters and the head offices of GRM, one of the largest manufacturers of GUARDIANS and Alliance Military equipment and CAST parts, are both found in Holtes City. CASTs make up only 5% of Parum's population. However, most of the important positions in politics, administration, and management are filled by CASTs.
Holtes City: Parum's economic center. Major facilities are concentrated in Holtes City, with the GUARDIANS branch located in the East District. The West District is home to GRM headquarters, Alliance Military headquarters, and a shopping mall. The PPT Shuttle port, as well as the Alliance Council building, are both found in the Central District.
Raffon Meadow: A grassland area found on Parum. Planet Parum is home to much beautiful nature such as this. For the most part, all such nature has been artificially restored after being ravaged by war.
()------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

Neudaiz: Neudaiz holds the most water content of the three planets. People on Neudaiz coexist with nature. Huge plants grow densely, untouched by people, and floating islands dot the waters. The majority of the population is made up of newmans.
Neudaiz's planetary religion is the Gurhal Faith, and the planet is a theocracy governed by the Communion of Gurhal. Most of Neudaiz's residents are followers. It is the Gurhal System's largest religion, supported by both newman and non-newman followers. Neudaiz's capital is Ohtoku City, home of the headquarters of the Communion of Gurhal. One of the largest companies in the city is the Yohmei Corporation, famous for its powerful TECHNIC-based weapons. Ohtoku City's residents are mostly newman, with other races making up approximately 20% of the city's population.
Ohtoku City: Neudaiz's capital city. In the center of the city is the majestic Ohtoku Mountain, home to the headquarters of the Communion of Gurhal and a popular tourist spot. Ohtoku City is home to corporate and university research facilities as well as educational organizations, and is well-known as an academic city.
Mizuraki Conservation District: A heavily forested area on Neudaiz.
The mizuraki is a beautiful but endangered tree, protected by conservation laws.
()------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------()

Moatoob:
Of the three planets, Moatoob has the harshest environment. Inhabitants must constantly battle the elements to survive. The oceans are dry and the land is becoming a harsh desert, but Moatoob is rich in natural resources. Thus, there is no end to the influx of immigrants with grandiose dreams of getting rich quick. Beasts make up the majority of the inhabitants. Medium-sized cities dot Moatoob's surface. Representatives from each city have formed a trade alliance, but it's a loose organization and agreements are carried out between individual merchants for the most part. Rather, it can be said that the rogues' underground society controls much of Moatoob's politics. Dagora City is one of the larger cities on Moatoob. The majority of Dagora City's inhabitants are beasts, but with a large number of people coming and going from the city, at any given time 30 to 40% of the population are of other races. Many of them are involved in dealings ranging from shady to outright criminal.
Dagora City: A city where outlaws and shady characters gather. Dagora City is home to a bar frequented by rogues, as well as Tenora Works, maker of nonstandard underground-style weapons. Galenigare Canyon: An area with many abandoned mines. Many were once rich in rare ores, but after being mined extensively, most of the mining sites have been abandoned.
