This help file covers the Japanese Phantasy Star Online E-Access Download Quest.
In order to play this quest, your game's language must be set to Japanese. As with
the other quests, the save file need not be on the same VMU (memory card) as your
character.
The object of this quest is to track down a Splitter and an ADSL Modem/Broadband
Adapter (which of these last two you will need to find "may" depend on how you connect
to Phantasy Star Online) for the three scientists aboard the Pioneer 2. In order to
accomplish this task, you'll need to enter Level 2 of the Mines via the main teleporter
aboard the Pioneer 2, then spy on the scientists who are working there to see which of
them is in league with a renegade Hunter and Ranger. The maps used during this quest
are the same as the maps used in the regular quest, "The Unsealed Door".
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 1, The Play Guide:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Begin the quest by talking to the scientist closest to the Hunter's Guild counter.
He will tell you to find a Splitter and an ADSL Modem/Broadband Adapter for him, as
well as give you an E-Access Manual (this appears in your Quest Board inventory). After
learning this, use the Pioneer 2's main teleporter to warp to Level 2 of the Mines. Once
there, access Terminal 1 (choose Yes, the top choice, when prompted to flip the switch
on the terminal's monitor) to open the two locked doors so that you may continue further
into the Mines. From this point on, using specific terminals will allow you to patch
into the Mine's remote camera system. Upon accessing the correct terminal at the correct
time you will be shown a cut-scene and be able to progress further into the quest.
Now that you have access to the western half of Level 2 of the Mines, your task is
now to spy on the three scientists who are there, to see which of them is siding with
the traitors. The scientist in question is the one indicated by the blue cursor on the
in-game Area Map. To catch him in the act, access the following terminals while he is
in the following locations:
Terminal to Access Location of Blue Scientist
Terminal 2 Warp F Room
Terminal 4 Warp A/Terminal 3 Area
Terminal 7 Warp E/Terminal 6 Room
In order to make the scientists move so that you can get the blue indicated one to the
proper locations, you can use any of these next three methods:
1. Talk to any of the scientists and tell them to go about their business (talking
to any of the scientists will bring up two choices, Top: Go about your business,
and Bottom: Accuse the scientist).
2. Use any of the terminals to spy on a scientist via a remote camera.
3. Return to the Pioneer 2 (this method has a low rate of success)
Spying on him (the scientist represented by the blue icon) will allow you to fulfill
the requirements needed to help in your unlocking the door that Terminal 1's camera
shows, which leads to the teleporter to Level 1 of the Mines. If you "do not" wish to
enter Level 1 of the Mines, and ultimately attempt to win one of the rare weapons, you
need only approach the scientist (marked by the blue icon) and "Accuse" him in each of
the two sections of Level 2 of the Mines to get the necessary items from him.
Once you have spied on him (the blue indicated scientist) at the three locations,
seek him out and talk to him. You will again be presented with the two choices, but
instead of telling him to go about his business like you did before -- "Accuse" him.
This will prompt him to attack you, and upon his defeat he will give you the Splitter.
The Splitter will now appear in your Quest Board inventory alongside the E-Access
Manual.
With the Splitter now in your possession, head for the central room on Level 2
of the Mines which previously had a photon gate barring you from progressing to the
Eastern side of the level. Once there, you will not only find that the gate has been
de-activated, but you will see the renegade Hunter and Ranger. After listening to
their conversation, continue on (you'll stop to listen once again upon reaching the
opposite side of the central room) until you reach the eastern half of Level 2 of
the Mines.
Here, as you did with the western section, you'll need to spy on the scientist
indicated by the blue icon in three locations by using three more of the terminals.
They are as follows:
Terminal to Access Location of Blue Scientist
Terminal 10 S-Shaped Room
Terminal 9 The Hall between the Warp I Room and the S-Shaped Room
Terminal 8 The Cryo Room
Upon talking to the scientists in order to get them to move, you will first be
given a choice of three topics of information, 1. Splitter, 2. ADSL Modem, and
3. Broadband Adaptor. After choosing one of those, and hearing a little about
your selection (the answers to the questions you will be asked on Level 1 of
the Mines and during the battle with De Rol Le in the Underground Water Channel
can be learned through these choices and by talking to the sceintists in the
Hunter's Guild on the Pioneer 2), you will be given the familiar "Go about your
business" and "Accuse the Scientist" selections. Choose "Go about your business
to get them to change their current positions.
Similar to how it transpired in the western section, spying on him while he is
the designated areas will fulfill the requirements needed to aid in your unlocking
the sealed door leading to teleporter to Level 1 of the Mines.
Once you have viewed him (the scientist with the blue icon) at these three
locations, seek him out and talk to him as you did in the western section. After
the information selection (don't advance the text too rapidly here, or you may
unknowingly make your next choice), choose to "Accuse" him. This will again prompt
him to attack you, which will get you the ADSL Modem upon your victory. The ADSL
Modem will appear in your Quest Board inventory alongside the E-Access Manual and
the Splitter.
With both the Splitter and the ADSL Modem now in your possession, the quest
is officially cleared. But...
If you wish to continue on and attempt to win one of the rare weapons as your
prize, instead of now going back to the Hunter's Guild to collect your reward, at
this point, head to Terminal 3 and use it to spy on the three scientists who have
now gathered in the central room where the photon gate was previously. After you've
accomplished this, return to the sealed door in the eastern section of Level 2 of
the Mines, and once you are in front of it, inspect the E-Access Manual located in
the Quest Board of your Item Pack Menu. With it's reading, the three scientists all
chant together, "E-!!" - "AC!!" - "CESS!!", after which the ground trembles and the
sealed door opens, allowing you access to the teleport to Level 1 of the Mines.
Level 1 of the Mines invloves far less backtracking then you did on the level
below. Here you'll merely need to progress to the teleport leading to the boss
chamber. Along the way you'll encounter three small drones (like the ones you
sometimes find floating in the small treasure rooms throughout the Mines) who
will each ask you a question. Answer correctly and you may proceed. The answers
to the three questions are as follows (for some reason, the drones may not always
be visible, but if you approach the center of the rooms they are in, you will
target lock onto them:
Drone English Question I.D. Answer
Drone 1 E-Access ADSL 5,500 yen X) False
Drone 2 Internet Service (ADSL) 1.5Mbps ISDN 64 kbps 3) 24
Drone 3 ADSL 2) Analog
In between Drones 2 and 3 you will reach the central room of Level 2 of the
Mines. Here you will have to battle the rogue Hunter and Ranger. After defeating
them (you need only defeat the Ranger), continue on in search of Drone 3.
After you've answered the questions of the three drones correctly, seek out
the teleport leading to the Underground Water Channel and the final battle with
De Rol Le.
During your battle with De Rol Le you will be asked timed questions once
every minute or so (the longer you take to defeat De Rol Le, the more questions
you'll be asked, but don't worry, there are only three different questions, so
if you take longer, they will just repeat in order. You still need to answer
them correctly even upon their second occurance to get the rare weapon though).
If you answer each question you are asked correctly until you have defeated
De Rol Le, you will be awarded a rare weapon based on the difficulty your game
is currently set to (if you answer a question incorrectly, you will be paralyzed
for roughly 10 seconds. If you are killed and return to De Rol Le, it will act
as if it is a normal battle with it and not ask you any questions... therefore
no rare weapon will be awarded with it's defeat). Also, make sure that you do
not have 30 items in your inventory upon going into the battle with De Rol Le,
as if you win the weapon, it is "given" to you, not found in a crate. Therefore,
no space - equals no weapon.
The questions and answers for the De Rol Le battle are as follows:
English Question I.D. Answer
ADSL in what area Choose 2) Answer in Kanji
ADSL e-Access Choose 3) E-Access
E-Access Provider Choose 1) OCN
After the battle, return to the Hunter's Guild aboard the Pioneer 2 to collect
the rest of your reward, the E-Access Phantasy Star Online Original Website.

Section 2, The Rewards:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rewards for finishing this quest will vary based on the level of difficulty
your game is set to, as well as whether or not you have completed the "entire" quest.
Completing the entire quest will involve defeating De Rol Le in the Underground Water
Channel above Level 1 of the Mines, as well as answering several questions correctly.
The rewards are as follows:
E-Access web site End the quest after finding the Splitter and
ASDL Modem/Broadband Adaptor on Level 2 of the Mines
Chain Sawd Defeat De Rol Le along with answering all the questions
correctly while on Normal Mode
Flame Visit Defeat De Rol Le along with answering all the questions
correctly while on Hard Mode.
Sting Tip Defeat De Rol Le along with answering all the questions
correctly while on Very Hard Mode.
As with the regular quests you may only acquire one of each weapon per character.
So if you have beaten it on Normal Mode and received the Chain Sawd, in order to get
another one you must use a different character.

Please do not use this file on your website without asking me for
permission first. Permission is NOT granted to reprint this summary in
a for-profit magazine or publication without my prior consent. Nor is it
granted for this document to be used as any type of "source material" for
for-profit magazines to use in any way, be it basing their own articles
from, reading prior to get ideas, or outright copying. I do not write
these walkthroughs so some hack writers can sit back and get paid for it.
I also forbid this, or any of my walkthroughs to be used as, or turned
into issues or mailings for RPG or other newsletters, be they free or
for profit. In no way do I wish this faq to be cut up into sections or
altered in any way. Nor do I wish for import game dealers to use this or
any of my works to sway people into buying the game from them, when
without a walkthrough or translation, they wouldn't have purchased the
game(ring any bells Game cave? I heard you try to charge extra for faqs,
and I don't write them to make you money). It is to remain in it's
original state and in one piece if used on websites. Permission is not
granted for anyone to "update" or "alter" any of my work, be it changing
names so an import walkthrough better fits an American release(if I
write an import walkthrough, I will update it myself), or add things to
an already existing walkthrough. That should cover just about everything.
I realize it seems like a lot, but you'd be surprised how many people
who are out there just to screw you over.
A specific note to Game cave, I adamantly deny your use of this file in
any way. Do not give it away free, do not sell it, do not give it away as
a "free" gift to those who buy your smaller guides, do not give it to
those who buy the game from you, do not tell people that you will give it
to them if they purchase the game from you, do not put it on your
website................................................. Get the picture?
You are not authorized to use this faq in any way, shape or form...PERIOD!
