Meet Up with Nasunakan In PSO2's Summer Update

Ricardo Leave a comment

~ August 8th, 2018 ~

 

Beach Wars 2018

Venture out in the sizzling summer heat with Beach Wars 2018. While this quest will use last year's version as a template, some contents will be adjusted such as enemy levels and emergency trials, among other things. For example, some bosses on Extra Hard will randomly appear at level 85.

 

Another change is a brand new Emergency Trial starring Nasu Nakanishi, the comedic duo hosting PSO2 Station and Arks Summer Challenge. These two comedians will appear as the in-game characters "Nasunakan." Clearing their Emergency Trial will supply you with "Nasunakan's Sweet And Sour Pork," providing a 30 minute effect of [ALL +10 and RDR UP +50%].

Players who wear beachwear can experience a PSE [Costume Bonus] effect that slightly raises the rare drop and exp rate. The list of compatible outfits are available at the Summer Costume list.
