■ WalkthroughWALKTHROUGH

  1. Hear the situation from Irene

    Hear Irene's request at the Guild and head to the Ruins where the earthquake occurred.

  2. Survive the attacks in Ruins 2

    Advance the research-team dialogue and earthquake events. At each attack location, defeat all enemies to end the battle. Do not leave after the first wave; deal with the reinforcements too.

  3. Work with Ash in Ruins 3

    Proceed from the back of Ruins 2 into Ruins 3. Talk to Ash when you meet him and head toward the central monument.

  4. Open the route to the central device

    Activate the switches in the passages to open the transporter leading to the monument in the center. Listen to Ash's guidance as you proceed.

  5. Record the data and stop the device

    Approach the monument and finish Ash's dialogue about the tremors. Then examine the device beside it. After you obtain the monument data, the experimental device stops. Check that the data has been added to the Quest Board.

  6. Report to Irene

    Finish Ash's dialogue, return to Pioneer 2 and report to Irene. Collect your reward at the Guild counter.

■ TipsTIPS

If examining the device only says it is not operating, hear Ash's tremor dialogue near the monument and examine it again.

After obtaining the data, finish Ash's farewell dialogue and report to Irene.

The quest fails if Ash's HP reaches zero in battle. Keep an eye on his HP and prevent enemies from surrounding him.

For a door controlled by several floor switches, step on each required switch. Return to the door after activating them all.
