Enemies variant

There is a darker infected version of AIS, AIS Exodas, appearing in Mining Base Demise and Necky's Challenge. AIS Exodas upon appearing will prepare to charge Photon Blaster, targeting the towers and can be stopped by destroying the gun however this causes it to move around shortly and attacking players or AIS. AIS Exodas can be downed on fours by breaking the legs and exposing it back without moving for short duration, if not able to kill the AIS Exodas in time, it will get up and proceed attacking players or AIS.

Notes

  • A.I.S. makes an appearance in PSO2: The Animation Episode 12 flying in and clearing out Darkers with ease from the air, combining Photon Blaster into one powerful beam. Unfortunately the AISes are destroyed instantly by Dark Falz Apprentice shortly after landing.
  • In the Unleashed Prestige quest, PP regenerates while you are in the air as well. This is not the case for any other quest with an AIS appearance at this time.
  • AIS are affected by both Shifta and Zanverse techniques. This is put to best use during any Mining Base related quests, as others can Shifta and Zanverse you.
  • In Annihilator's Purification, it is possible to apply Shifta on AISes though only three ticks will be applied due to boarding the AIS. The caster must not be inside the teleporter and charge Shifta outside till the countdown appears on screen then walks into teleporter before countdown ends.
