Mining base emergency quest places ARKS defending towers against serveral waves of Darker, infected tower, A.I.S Exodas (Demise), infected ARKS campship and bosses requiring teamwork and co-operation. There are crystal spawned across the maps which are used to raise points which can be spent to heal or activate barrier on the towers and defensive pad to make use of Photon Cannon or turrets which disappears after use. A.I.S can be activated in Despair and Demise from defensive pad. The missions is completed when ARKS have successfully defended all or remaining towers left against all waves or can be failed when all towers are destroyed.
Mining Base Emergency Quests
Mining Base Defense: Invasion
Emergency broadcast! Numerous Darkers are approaching the outlying regions of Lillipa's primary mining base!
—ARKS Ship Announcement
This map has 3 towers and is smaller than other mining bases map.
Mining Base Defense: Intrusion
Emergency broadcast! Numerous Darkers are approaching the outlying regions of Lillipa's secondary mining base!
—ARKS Ship Announcement
This map has 5 towers and have defensive wall to hold darkers but it will eventually break down.
Mining Base Defense: Despair
Emergency broadcast! Numerous Darkers are approaching the outlying regions of Lillipa's tertitary mining base!
—ARKS Ship Announcement
This map is more difficult than MBD 1 and MBD 2. There are 4 towers spread further out but there are catapults to launch you quickly and introduction of A.I.S will make it more manageable.
Mining Base Defense: Demise
Necky's Challenge
Note: This quest is unique to the Famitsu collaboration in 2016.
This quest uses the same map as Mining Base Defense: Invasion, but has much stronger enemies (including enemies from Ultimate Quests), and unlike MBD3&4, players have no access to A.I.S.
Points and Contributions
Crystal are spawned across the map and will give 50 exp. upon collecting it. On later waves, the crystals will shine brighter and increases the amount of points collected.
Tower
Points can be used to heal the tower or to activate burst barier for few seconds that causes freeze effect on any mobs close to the tower. Cannot activate burst barrier again if it is still active.
Defensive Pad
These pad are spread across the maps and used to spawn turrets, Photon Cannon and AIS. These pad can be infected by Sorza Brahda which can be clear by spending points but if left alone, it will eventually spawn an Infected Tower and begins to charge then fire photon beam at the tower depleting the health quickly.
Turrets
Spawns turrets with 4 bars of machine gun ammo, disappears when all the ammos are used up. On higher difficulty, turrets are not very effective as mobs and bosses have more health.
Photon Cannon
Spawns a Cannon that will take several seconds to charge Photons and fires a powerful beam dealing high amount of damage. Disappears after being used.
A.I.S
Can summon and pilot A.I.S in MB 3 and MB 4, can ride up to 1 minutes and 30 seconds. Equiped with Assault Rifle, Sword and missiles launcher that fires 3 rounds and homes onto target. Photon Blaster is like Photon Cannon but cannot be reused again as it has long cooldown that is same as the ride time. Capable of using freeze grenade that can freezed Goldrahdas.
Quest Rank Reward
Upon completing the quest, ARKS will be reward with Pleidas Stone in any Mining Base Defense EQ. Torana Stones can be obtained from Demise and Necky's Challenge, they are dropped upon breaking the crystal after quest is completed.
S Rank
2 Pleidas Stone
A Rank
1 Pleidas Stone
B Rank
No rewards
C Rank
No rewards
Advice
- After a wave is over, any remaining Goldrahdas including ones with broken back will run towards tower and self-destruct. This can be interrupted and delayed with barrier burst which will freeze them, allowing MPA to finish them off.
- Try to take down infected ARKS Campship, they will target towers or ramdom MPAs with machine guns and missiles.
- Vibrace will create a bomb and throw it towards a random tower. If this is not destroyed, the explosion can easily kill MPA that is close and destroy the tower.
