The East Tower Options

[Crushinator]

The new quest is up, and its a doozy! (Doozy wtd?)

Administrator Natasha orders your team to go clean out the East Control Tower of badguys so they can recover the research data from Pioneer 1 that is left in there. Seems simple enough, but if you find our good friend Hopkins in the town square, he informs you that his father, the dapper Paganini wants you to retrieve the Pioneer 1 computer data and deliver it to him before Natasha and the Lab are able to get ahold of it. Dun-dun-dun the PSO plot thickens!

This is probably the hardest quest I have played. Sure Seat of the Heart is harder to do beacause Elly dies all the time, but this one is actually challenging! You go through CCA, 9 Floors of CCT, and have a final face off with Epsilon on the lab at the top of the tower. There are tons of Mercarol (and the rare forms of him), Gibbles, Del Lily, Gi-Gue, and Recon/Recoboxes, and a few Il-Gill's and Delbiters to spice things up.

After you complete the quest and deliver the data to Paganini, you can enter the Gallon's shop quest, and use your PDs to modify your S-rank weapons! Paganini will add a special move to your S-rank for a PD fee. Alisha got Zalure added to her mechguns, and it seems to be super-powerful (Level 50?) zalure, just like we remember from the S-ranks off of PSOv2. Now our s-ranks can be even cooler

Also, from the way Administrator Natasha was talking, we will probably have to visit the west tower some time in the future to clean it out too.... Paganini is talking about some great project he's working on, and he'll show it to us later... Is that the ES weapons, or somethins else?

I love this quest!! quite brief but it's pretty much all i can say. the only bad point is that with my regular playing bunch, i find it quite flabbergastingly (it's now an adverb!!) easy....even on ULT on my not quite level 100 FO.... I've always had the knack for dodging the mericarol's megid, and casting techniques quickly in between, and just find it easy, but fun nonetheless. I'm not sayign i'm great (and if i did say it i'd be like completely wrong), just runnign around with a leevl 160 FO, level 192 HUnewearl, an extremely good level 127 HUmar or a level 200 HUcaseal makes things a tad easy, especially with my 50% hit vulcs, a guy with a 30% hit ASUKA and blade with some 50% hit L&K's, i wish they could make it harder in the sense of harder attacks and different attack patterns, rather than just slapping megid on every enemy there is..... coz i just find megid boring. I can on the most part dodge megid easily, even with 3 mericarol's gatherred in a circle i can time it right, and when they do hit me i have 74 Dark resistance.....

I love the quest
I love the new enemies
I love the new area
why can't they make it more of a challenge........
