The water supply
for Pioneer 2 has
been cut off!

Client: Principal
Quest:
A malfunction in Ragol's
waterworks is threatening
the city's water supply.
Repair the pumping station
before Pioneer 2 exhausts
its remaining water!
Reward: ??? Meseta

My trio of quests with speedy enemies is now complete. This time it's up to you to brave the Cave in order to restore Pioneer 2's water supply, so get out there and help the thirsty citizens of Pioneer 2!

This quest rounds out Altimira's list of event quests and will be available during the times when the other event quests aren't active, which means we now have enough event quests to span the entire year. Huzzah!

Note:

Unlike the other two quests in this series, I've decided to allow Telepipes in this one, since the Cave is quite a long area, and you might need to get supplies during a run; however, certain points in the quest will clear any existing Telepipes you may have set, such as when you see a cutscene. I'm hoping this will be enough to prevent any bugs related to piping, but as always, you can report any problems I might have missed. Have fun!

Definitely looking forward to playing this! Thanks Ives!

Is there a chance that we can turn tiny in this quest?  

If you want to be tiny in Cave 2 or 3, that's what Today's Rate is for.

Hi. Good to know there's a new quest! I want to try it out but I don't know if I'll arrive on time for that. When's the event quest ending? Off-topic: I'll be back home by October... can't wait to try gdemu that's sitting on my shelf waiting for me Hope PSO works online with it.

This quest serves as the "default" event quest, so it's available when the others aren't. For example, it's available right now, but when October 1 rolls around, it will be replaced by the Halloween quest. When November 1 rolls around and Halloween is over, this quest comes back.

You got a GDEMU? So lucky!

Hmm... that's cool. Too bad I won't be on time to play on the dc :/ Btw, any news on the qedit tutorial?

Yeah! And I hope PSO runs glitch free and allows future mods

SO, I finally played this quest today with my PSOpc char.
NICE cutscenes and effects. Funny NPC dialogues... good stuff overall.
One thing I didn't understand though... What do those "effects" do to your char? They're fancy to look at but are they supposed to affect us in any way? I didn't see any HP decrease or anything. Also... my char didn't seem to be affected by status ailments of any kind during the whole quest. Much like having state/maintenance equipped, without really having it... yay or bug?
I wonder if higher difficulty modes got any side-quest secrets?

Are you wearing a Sacred Guard? It does the same thing as State/Maintenance. You can avoid the blasts if you run away from them, but if you're too close, they do have an effect...

LOL YEAH, f*ckin noob that I am.

Hey yo..Im back on ragol..hehe..wow ..great new Quest Ives.I tried it alone..ist pretty hard and the enemies are so fuckin fast!!I`ll be on tonight with some other guys..maybe we meet up there

Finally got to do an ULT mode run with a full team of this today. Fun quest, a lot of XP. We cleared every room, but i'm guessing there is no reward other than Meseta. Or did we miss something?

Did you get to encounter Del Rol Le? He is especially deadly.

Yep, the battle was woderful and quite challenging. Recent quests have really extended he life of ULT mode. I think when I ran this quest before on vhard I didnt fight him. Are there certain requirements to hae him appear?
