Story Mission Walkthrough

Go ahead and eat the last dinner on the menu. You’ll need all the strength you can get for this mission.

There’s an important data probe in Sylvalum that’s acting up. Coincidentally, the Ganglion have been awfully quiet. Repair expert Lin and the rest of combat-ready Team Elma are sent out to investigate.

New Story Mission: Chapter 10

Repair the data probe installed on Sylvalum’s Northern Delusian Mountains.

Objective 1

Repair the data probe installed in Sylvalum’s Delusian Mountains.

This probe’s pretty high up, so flying is your best bet. Your destination is the North Summit of the Delusians. Look for the purple data probe light. Approach it and enjoy the story.

That was the easy part. The hard part shows up right about…now. Did you miss Dagahn and Ryyz? Well, miss them no more, because they’re back and they want revenge!

Objective 2

Defeat the Zu Pharg.

Zu Pharg

Lv. 39: Boss

You don’t have to defeat Zu Pharg entirely just yet—just get it down to half of its HP. Use this time to feel out your enemy. You’ll need to fly just to meet it on equal terms.

Zu Pharg launches aircraft. Whenever they show up, knock them out of the sky with concentrated fire so you can leave the battlefield clean. When engaging Zu Pharg directly, fly above the craft so you can have a better view of your targets and give yourself a “high ground” advantage. Once in position, go for the each of the dishes on its sides, then lay the smackdown on its center.

Get Zu Pharg down to half of its life and it will transform into a massive ground-based behemoth!

Objective 3

Defeat the Zu Pharg.

Despite the added intimidation factor, the exact same strategy applies on the ground as in the air. This time, Zu Pharg launches Qmoeva Skells—run interference and pound them ASAP before going for the battle station itself. Keep putting on the pressure until it falls. This chapter ends directly afterward, so give it all you’ve got!
