PSO2 JP: Episode 3 Cup + Item Design Contest 2014 Results

Ricardo 18 Comments

The Arks Ship Competition "Episode 3 Cup" is set to begin on September 26th, 2014. Everyone can join in on the festivities earning stars and points by clearing the objectives in each round. Ship alliances will be different this time around, with some rule changes, and new objectives pertaining to Planet Harukotan. In addition, the Arks Ship Competition will be given its own special site containing detailed information and rule explanations.

 

Arks Ship Competition Changes

EQ Stars and points

In the first competition, the Ships were given a boost two rounds ahead based on their current standings. However, this time, the boosts apply to the next round. They also changed the way the boosts are calculated, giving ships a chance to make a comeback. In addition, they increased the cap on the amount of points players can contribute and added in some Emergency Quests related to the current round.

 

 

Final Prize Shop Lineup

arkuma final prize

The final prize lineup will see some changes. Ships in first place will still get to choose from exclusive prizes. However, Ships that place in 2nd ~ 5th place will now be able to choose from the same list of prizes. Once the entire event is over, Ships who place in 1st ~ 3rd place will earn more star rewards than the previous event.

 

Arkuma Prize Shop Update

New prizes are available at the Arkuma Prize Shop. Some of these prizes include Arkuma's headphones, tail, jet boots, cushion, and poster. Keep in mind that some prizes are available after the event is over, and among those, some are available only to Ships who reach in first place. Be sure to also link up the Lillipan and Rappy Race with your friends and aim for the finish line.

 

Emergency Quest Update

EQ Level Up

Balance adjustments are coming to Emergency Quest in the form of increased enemy levels. Enemies in super hard Emergency Quests will now appear at level 66 ~ 70! The benefits of this change gives players the chance to acquire items of high rarities.
