Arks Grand Prix Preliminary Quest
Available: May 15th through September 25th
The Arks Grand Prix Preliminaries are meant for players to practice their skills for the upcoming 1 year anniversary offline event "Phantasy Star Festa 2013." This tournament will be held in various locations across Japan, as players in teams of four rush for the fastest time.
Since this quest is only meant as a training exercise for the Arks Grand Prix, Items and EXP are unavailable.
Extreme Training: Forest and Dragons
Available: May 29th, 2013
The next set of Emergency Quests pits the players against Naberius natives, Amdsucia Dragons, and Darkers. With simpler stage orders, this quest should be easier for those who wish to to challenge it alone or with some friends. Additionally, since some enemies are weak to poison, players can have the upper hand by bringing weapons with poison inflicting special abilities.

Three new Advance Quests; City, Ruins, and Sanctum, will be available May 29th, 2013.

The 1 Year Anniversary quest coming up later this summer features a surprise event harking back to the Sega Saturn era. The Emergency Trial "Burning Angel" tasks players with rescuing survivors trapped in flames.
Telepipe Bug in Parallel Area
- We have received reports of a bug where the telepipe returning to the Camp Ship does not show up after completing the parallel area in the "With Wind and Rain" Emergency Quest. If you have encountered this bug, we suggest cancelling the quest and starting over.
Gunner Class Balance
- We have received various opinions about this issue and have decided to buff some Gunner skills and photon arts in the future. We'll announce more details later on.
Attack PP Restorate Skill Decreased
- We have received reports of a bug where the Attack PP Restorate skill gives considerably less PP than it should. This seems to have been applied during the May 15th maintenance, and though we have identified the source of this bug, it will take some time for us to correct this issue. We plan to fix it by May 29th's maintenance.
- Compensation: Any character with a LV1+ "Attack PP Restorate" skill prior to May 15th's maintenance will receive a Triboost+100% as compensation.
