Beach Wars Emergency Quest Bug Update
Aside from the bugs reported in our last post, there seems be another bug that prevents the lost cake sister from returning to the cargo ship. This may occur if the enemies accompanying the emergency trial do not show up on the radar map. Defeating the enemies nearby should allow the cake sister to continue her journey.
The development team plans to fix most of these bugs during the August 21st maintenance. They are sorry for the inconvenience this has caused and will distribute some items as compensation in the future. In addition, they are considering whether they should extend the Emergency Quest passed the September 4th end date. More details regarding this date will be posted at the official site at a later time.
Phantasy Star Online 2 will undergo "Emergency Maintenance" to fix two key issues.

Naura Cake Emergency Trial Bug (8/8/2013)
Sega has confirmed a bug where the Naura Cake Sisters emergency trial does not appear in the Beach Wars Emergency Quest. This bug seems to occur when several parties join the same quest. Until they identify the source of this problem, you can avoid this bug by restricting other parties from joining the quest. Be sure to set a password on the party creation screen and tick the radio button that prevents other parties from joining which will hopefully allow the Naura Cake Sisters to appear in the final area.
