Achievements made easier

Regular players of Phantasy Star Universe will be glad to know that there is a special spring event happening at the moment. The 'Protectors Zeta' event means that players advance through a shorter-than-usual run of the mysterious phantom areas that have appeared across Gurhal. However, a boss battle follows each mission block, meaning that the amount of EXP points on offer is much higher than usual.

No longer will you be spending hours trying to reach level 90 to enable you to defeat Dark Falz 2; these encounters could be against any bosses, but Dark Falz 2 is just one of the bosses that has been added to the selection. This makes the Dark Falz 2 Slayer achievement much easier to earn.

The event will last until May 12th, 2011, so there's plenty of time to take advantage of the EXP bonuses.

Never played this game. Really want to. Is it a long grind to 100%?
Smurfquake - Well, looks like I'm gonna get kicked off the website. Nice getting to know you all. Find me on Xbox if you'd like.

I've already jumped at the oppurtunity and ordered the game.
Will only have to pay for one month of a subscription too if I can get all the DLC achievements! :D

Damn, probably going to start this on the weekend. Sounds like a good time to finally finish this game with only 1 month.

The DLC was a long grind, but thanks to this event can be completed pretty fast now. Unlike when i grinded to lvl 90 so i could beat him a few months back.
