[Tycho]

I have no clue on how to post stuff on the frontpage, or if I'm even supposed to, but anyways...
There's gonna be a new quest, Pioneer Christmas. Here's the page. I manually translated all the untranslated (by babelfish) katakana. I'm in a bit of a rush, so I didn't bother to put it in proper English yet. You'll understand it anyways.

In the quest we'll have to deliver packing paper to the Naura cake sisters or something, it's a solo quest. Now gib x-mas presents please! ^-^;

[Hrith]

solo quest owns, don't have to gather cakes x_X

[NeoLon]

I wonder if this means there will be an Easter quest too!

[Dhylec]

interesting..
but this is not the first time bary revealed some special info =]

[Skorpius]

This quest doesnt exist at the time the servers were available after the maint. All quests are nonseasonal and are not new at all.

EDIT: I only saw it on US ships, but I might have been mistaken.

[Deus-Irae]

well, my HL will continue then... for now.

[Tycho]

Ehh. I wouldn't know Skorpius. My license just ran out without me knowing. But anyways, I trust Minhiro Japan. It's about as official as information could get about this, as far as I know. And Barubary should know what she's talking about as well.

[TheOneHero]

Just signed onto to pso, decorations are up and so is the quest. I've only ran through it once on normal, I don't know how to grab the christmas present (If you can) X_x I'm going to try it again soon, more information when I figure stuff out. >_>

[TheOneHero]

Well, I did the quest some more and took down all the answers for the puzzles for those that can't remember. =p I have only done Difficulty Level 3, I might do 1 and 2...

Numbers are there for what order you hit them if you couldn't tell.

I've gotten 16/16 on these puzzles but don't know what's so special about them. >_>

[Tycho]

Aww, it'd be more fun if people too lazy/stupid to figure out the puzzles can't beat the quest. xP
Anyways, does this mean up to now there is no known way to obtain X-mas presents in this quest yet?

I guess so. However I've heard from people in the lobby that once you wrap your present, you can give it to some lady in Pioneer 2 and she might give you a christmas present.

I myself haven't talked to everyone in Pioneer 2. Though I think this lady might be down by where the telepipes appear. =

I'm gonna play this more soon and try to get confirmation on this. >_>

[TheOneHero]

I did Difficulty Levels 1 and 2, got 16/16 on them and still no present.

I don't know still if this can get you a present, you are more than welcome to continue on trying this way. =p I've confirmed that by where the telepipes appear in Episode II, there is a lady that is excepting donations. You can give her your presents though I don't know if you get anything in return. I've given her 5 or so singlely. (One per quest) Then I gave her about 10 at once; still nothing. If anyone figures out how to get the mag cell (if you can via this quest) please post. ;wacko;

Edit* I have yet to confirm this, but I've heard in the lobby that you have to be on ult, complete Level 3 no mistakes and level 4 should open up. If you beat that no mistakes you should get the mag cell.

Edit2*

I have confirmed (finally) on how to get a christmas present. Beat Level 3 on Ultimate no mistakes, do quest again and beat Level 4 no mistakes on Ultimate. Here are the answers. (display two ways depending on which you find easier.)

Level 4

Puzzle One:

OR

Clock-wise: 4 2 6 5 3 4 2 5 3 6

Hope this helps everyone. ^.^ I'd like to thank Card for helping with this, and the random person in lobby that told me about it.

[SATAN666]

Here's an easier to follow answer sheet-

Puzzle 4 legend:

1 2 3 4
...5 6

Difficulty 3 patterns-

1:- 313123
2:- 12(3?)43243
3:- 32154351
4:- 513624541

Difficulty 4 patterns-

1:- 1313132
2:- 31243142
3:- 525413142
4:- 4256342635

I can confirm that acing the level 4 puzzles on Ultimate earns a Christmas Present. You don't need to speak to any of the Rappy groups.

I've only heard so far, that you are limited to 1 present per character.

Which means that players who've spent time leveling up 1 or 2 characters are penalized and those you quickly raised several level 80+ characters are being rewarded.

[digigram]

i'm assuimg that this applies to Xbox as well??

[Tycho]

Okay, great.
Now I have another question... Do we have to be able to fight stuff in this quest, or is any L80 character good?
Because training up newbie characters in groups of friends is easy, some speed-TTFs and they're all up to ult in a day.

[digigram]

no..no fighting at all.. just gotta have lvl 80 characters.

[Tycho]

Yay. Let's get to training then. I can do that.

[Mowse]

Hm... thats strange, I entered it on the ultimate difficulty and I only got levels 1-3. Do you have to do something special to unlock level 4?

[digigram]

read the thread.. there are directions on how to "unlock" 4. do 3.. when you're done.. finish the quest, exit, re-enter the quest..4 will appear.

[Mowse]

Oh! I found it. ^_^; sorry... I must have missed it.

Hey there, just an idea but maybe someone can try (I wont be on for the next 7h).
The redhead is asking for gifts for the kids and in the Halloween quest we searched for Cake for the kids! Anybody tried to wrap a cake and give it to her?

[Deus-Irae]

the woman doesnt give you anything if you give her a wrapped cake. i can confirm.

she will also not accept a real xmas present. (which is good!)

ive given her other junk, but she just takes it and says thanks. not sure what her deal is yet...

[Superguppie]

Nope. but she does recognize different colors of wrapping paper. 8 differnt ones maybe?

[Coolest-Mum]

She hasnt given me anything of yet, i have given her 9 different presents so far, each time she gets a new one she will say, what a wonderful present and continue to talk about the colour of the wrapping, if you give her one which you have already given her she will simply say, Thankyou for your charity, The children will be very happy.
My question is how many present will it take for her to Give!

[PrinceBrightstar]

TheOneHero, could you change your Ultimate #3, its wrong for the worded version.

[mitchm]

I found a mistake on the puzzle 3 sequence it should be...

Puzzle Three:

not...

that was the way it was for me when i did it anyways on xbox.

[Forte1224]

Dude, this thread is over a year old. Are you one of those retards that go dig up old threads cause they have nothing better to do? Now one of the mods will probably lock this.

[whiteninja]

Before that happens though... I would just like to say that this quest does not exist this year... on GC anyway... I saw this, and read it, without noticing the dates, and was thinking "Wait?! When did they update the server?!!?!?!?" Then I saw this was a bump after you pointed it out... and http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif and of course, the Christmas stuff isn't even up on the ST GC servers...

[mitchm]

no dude im not one of those people that dig up old threads... this thread was actually linked by a Mod in another thread for pioneer christmas. I found a mistake on accident while i was using it as a guide... sorry if i was just trying to correct a simple mistake.

If you find mistake, post on Site related to have it corrected. The link is for reference only, not to post-bump it. Please do not do it again.
