To commemorate the 5th anniversary of the Project Diva series, Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka will be holding concerts starting July 23rd, 2014! Together they will sing Phantasy Star Portable 2's main theme song, "Living Universe," live in the Arks Lobby!
Those who attend the concert will be granted a [rare drop] [exp] [meseta] boost which will last two hours after the concert ends.
All content below will appear July 16th, 2014.
Timed Abilities could be thought of as potentials for your units; only that they last for a period of time. First, the player crafts a "Data Drive" which is then used to craft "Timed Ability Data Items." These items can be appended onto a unit for various effects.
When this update goes live, [Timed Ability Installations] will have a lv. 30 cap. As you increase your crafting levels, you can achieve additional bonuses. Some bonuses include increased chances of extending the effect's duration, decreased cooldown times, and more!
Timed Abilities have several features:
- Main Effect: HP Recovery, EXP Boosts, etc.
- Sub Effects: HP/ATK/Parameter Boosts
- Extra Effects: HP/ATK/Parameter Boosts
- Effect Period: # of Days
- Effect Conditions: Specific Fields/Quest Types
※The effect requires the above conditions to be satisfied.
Certainly, there will be new craft builders that can decrease cooldown times for this too.
A new mining base defense mission will be arriving on Wednesday. This time, the stage takes place at a base that's starting to get infected. As infestation settles into the defense socket, the Darkers will have complete control releasing their Darker Particle Gun. Players should try purifying these sockets as quick as possible!
The Darkers have a few more tricks up their sleeve. They can now divide the battlefield by placing a large wall made from a substance allowing only them to go through. In addition an infected airship—the menace from the skies—will rain down terror on the battlefield. The Arks should utilize long distance attacks to bring it down.
Keep your eyes peeled for the Sorza Brahda. This enemy, who wields a staff in both hands, provides logistical support for the Darkers. Players should eradicate this threat immediately as not only can it strengthen the Darkers, it can also infect sockets nearby.
The Arks Interception Silhouette, nicknamed the A.I.S, is a robot here to assist us with eradicating the Darkers. It features high-mobility and powerful weapons. This robot is available at 200, 7,000, and 10,000 points, and can be activated 3 times during the quest.
New 11 stars that display a coat of arms are expected to appear. Weapon types will include a wand, bullet bow, twin machine gun, twin dagger, and wired lances.
The year is AP 228. See the event that took place 10 years in the past. The birth of the second generation Clariskrays, and all the records before they vanished.
The Event Chronicle lets you recapture your moments in history for Phantasy Star Online 2. You can rewatch NPC conversations and scenes from the story in a neatly organized list.
In the newly released matterboard, watching a certain event in the shopping area will lead you to acquiring Theodore's partner card.
Other changes
- The Team Name Changer is available to teams level 2+. After the initial change, they'll be locked out of editing the name again for 30 days.
- A new setting in options will notify players if their Premium Sets are about to expire within 7 days.
- Some AC Scratch Gold content will come with several items.
- The turrets in all mining base defense quests will have improved range.
- Enemies defeated by turrets and photon particle guns in all mining base defense quests will count towards the contribution score.

This new Base Defense Emergency looks amazing…
Anyway, talking about Live Stage in the Shop Area, what about new shows of Quna or new songs? I kinda miss it. 😀
new Base Defense Emergency is hard on SH
wave 3: i can use the mech now (last only like min than it disappear) well that was fun
wave 4: everyone use there mech at this point
wave 6: yeah we beat it…..wait
wave 7 Extreme danger: wave 7!? wh-what…..mission failed….ugh
lol i had something similar
Wave 2: uses suit cause i couldnt rest
Wave 3: lot of mechs
Wave 4: we lose 2 towers and struggle to defend the remaining 2
Wave 5: ok, 2nd to last one. we can do this. 1 tower is at 50%, other is at 25%
Wave 6: w8…doesnt it normally say final wave…ah well probably a translation error. use 2nd mec. WIPE EM OUT
Wave 7: WTF OHHHHH SHHHIIIIIIIT. everyone spammed heals on 1 tower(green) and accepted the death of the other tower. we organized(without talking) where half of us were gathering crystals realizing this ISNT THE LAST WAVE and the other half defending.
Wave 8: it worked. Final Wave. and we are on our 3rd mechs. everyone uses it, but this is a LOOOOOONG WAVE. we wipe out everything until the mechs expire. then struggle as a 2nd mega boss spawns(RARE COLOR) and we fight to the death. we win! but tower is at 5%. it was close and fun. used all 10 stun grenades, all my med packs, and all my revives.
reward: 15 rares. 8 10-11 stars. HELL TO THE YES.
defenitly worth it, and defenitly a challenge.
i've lost twice now. and won once. now THIS is a challenge!
I could try it twice in a row, some hours ago. I did it on VH (Didn't want to try SH after reading previous comments here :p)… We succeeded to the 7th Wave but fail.
Second time: 5th Wave, Mission Failed. Ooookay. I guess everyone will have to train some hours before successfully go to the end of it x) This one's pretty tough.
But still I don't understand everything… I saw a lot of players on their Mecha, but how do they do that? I activated a dark-red thing on the ground sometime but didn't find this.
