its completly worth it. Its 4800 meseta and 43 mission points plus the PA fragment. Oh and Jarbas (the megid/chicken looking thing) drop laser cannon.
Nanoresins drop here too and out of 3 different pallets of monsters there is on with no insects. So happy hunting!

LOL! It's ok man! /pat /pat They royally suck but there's not much we melees can do about it except keep hitting them and hope we don't go on missing streaks.

If that many bugs spawned in THAT place... then that means Endrum Renmants S is going to be fucking annoying XD. Nice S reward though.

'Oh but those flies are the best part of the lab' j/k. I think most if not all of us despise them along with the Jarbas. Were you soloing it?

Yeah but again like I said on of the spawns have no bugs flying around. If that fails just bring ForteTechers with Diga and the bugs die quickly.
Oh tip in case you dont know attacks from the front of those bugs are useless unless its a magic attack, for melee and bullets shoot from the back.

S rank rewards:
4800 meseta
43 mission points
And a PA fragment.

Bring techers with diga spells.

I S-ranked it this morning, and I'm personally sticking with "Demons Above S."

These new S rank missions are pretty limp.

With a whole group of techers the mission's a breeze.
Only thing is the Jarbas spit out what seems to be 100% insta-gib megids.
Maybe it was my party's luck but the Jarba megids seemed to cause death without fail.

That aside, just rely on those techers and they'll sweep those bugs out in no time.
Causing burn helps tremendously as well.

I'm going to gather people tonight and see these for myself. What are the enemies lv's?

Gazette

Dec 22, 2006, 07:15 PM

I think they were in the 50's.
Just bring techers or you'll be there forever.

isahn80, I agree. I just havn't found any other mission so far that compares in terms of meseta/mission points/rares like demons above does.

Dec 22, 2006, 07:58 PM

the enemies in the lab are 65 i believe but in 30min it can be done with a good team it just annoys the hunters and ranger of the group with the bugs while hybrid class and fortetechers can use use diga techs http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Um the S rank lab is bs.

Nanoresins drop here too and out of 3 different pallets of monsters there is on with no insects.

Try getting stuck on the other 2 maps WITH the bugs. Combine that with the Jarba Death Parade at the end and this mission earns suck with a capital S.

But I cannot find the mission involving the Lab. I've went through the entire Parum area up to Endrum Remnents, suggestions?

When you get to the Temporary base, go back through the door you came in through. It'll be there.

You people must really hate challenges. "Dear god, a bit of megid and high EVP enemies this mission earns an instant FAIL stamp." Whatever happened to fun and doing things for the heck of it?

Dec 22, 2006, 10:44 PM

I guess no one here played PW4, huh Q?

I am all for challenges but there are 2 kinds of difficulty

Challenging difficult-

and break it off in the ass difficult

Lab S is the 2nd option on the list.

A team with techers with alot of diga power can of course run through the map easily.

Once you come up to the megid spitters, use your bow. You can have a very lengthy reach with it. My reccomendation is to use Earth Bow element. That way you can silence them easily. At a Earth level 21+, you'r whole team will be able to silence them quick and painlessly.

Other than that... I'm still sticking to Onma S ( Demons Above ) until I get myself a Sori/force or har/quick then move on to Temple S when it comes out.

To me... Lab Run S isnt as great compared to Onmagoug if you have a group that can do Onma under 30 mins with S rank (49 MP and 5500 meseta).

Lightening over megid >__________>...

i'll take demons above.....anyday over the labs.....i dare not touch the bugs...

Did a Lab S run today. Took us 10 minutes to actually start that 25 minute trek when the leader promised us a 15 minute one. Why did it take so long? Because he was restarting the map until we got the one with no Bugs on it.

Totally not worth it unless you go in with a manaburn.

I got two laser cannons 7* from it today so i'm happy. Bugs are easy just make sure they set their direction in the same way then run behind and hit them. Bullets with lvl 4 burn eat them up. A good party even with bugs can do it 25 mins. I know one of the parties I was in did this a lot. It was funny seeing some parties with over an hour while a three person party I was in w/o any tech users at all could do it in 35 mins.

Techers not necessary if your party is good. We went in there with a Fortefighter, Figunner, Fortegunner, Protranser, Wartecher, we had no problems doing it in about 25 minutes per run.

But, we were all 56+

The Meseta/MP reward doesn't matter if the mission takes forever. Mizuraki Defense S is by far the best Meseta/MP vs time Spent mission....

Same thing buddy. =) Only thing is, a Haru/Quick dropped in cherry's game while I was in it last night and I didn't get it and neither did cherry. =(

Lab Recov S is awesome if you have Forces. The flies aren't too annoying, and the Jarbas can be avoided with things called guns. IMO, it's the best mission out there.

so where is this i want to know to?

Dec 23, 2006, 02:54 PM

the door you came from just turn around and back through it to enter the lab in endrum.

Also this reminds me of pw4 and since I loved pw4 I also love this one but since so few are doing this it is hard to do this mission more than twice ;/
