Ahhh yes, this quest is hacking me off pretty good when last I was playing PSOBB Ultima about almost a year ago... I realize this post is somewhat old, but still relevant perhaps for some noobs out there frustrated with this quest.This one is certainly holding up my progress of finishing all the normal Episode 1 quests and can be quite difficult if you're trying this solo. My only suggestions so far are this... As the quest description that is given by Prinicpal Tyrell's secretary says, this quest is TIMED, which makes it a real PITA, so get a map HERE! This certainly helps above all. Granted the ruins maps are huge and easy to loose track of where you're at sometimes, it's better than walking blindly through there,(again where time is crucial) so keep track of where you're at!Kill whatever you must to advance to the next room quickly as possible if necessary, ignore any monsters if you can get to the next room where you need to go. FIND all four pillars as quickly as possible!!! This may take quite a number of tries, but eventually the layout of the ruins map will become familiar and then you can pinpoint exactly where the pillars are and where you need to go quickly.Anyway, hope this helps! if you want to tackle this quest together which would certainly speed things up and improve our chances of solving it (if you haven't already by now) hit me up in game. Regardless, good luck to all who try to accomplish this trying quest!

FINALLY, I finally effin' finished this quest this past weekend and of course, the rest of the Government quests as well. Was pretty easy knocking off the rest of them at this point considering I was at level 99 with my RAmar. (Dark Falz was a big WTF what a wuss as I only had to defeat two forms of him at normal difficulty, oh well, whatever...) My notes for finally completing this quest are this:

1. Again I can't stress this enough, this is a TIMED quest. You must literally SLAUGHTER the mobs in every room to have any hope of completing this in the alloted time of 30 minutes. This means any group attack weapons, techniques, whatever, it doesn't matter, you just have to slaughter mobs quickly and efficently as you go from room to room making your way to the 4 pillars to collect the writings on the pillars for the quest objectives. The fact I it took me at level 99 with my RAmar should tell you it would be best to try this at a relatively high level with some equally powerful weaponry if you're doing this solo. If you are doing this quest with at 2 or more people, you can all split up and complete this quest much quicker and easier.

2. GET THE MAP! If you aren't familiar with this level's floorplan and where the locations of the pillars are at, (and where exactly to go to get to them quickly and specifically IN ORDER) your chances of success in completing this quest are next to ZERO, if you are doing this solo. Yes, as I said each pillar is NUMBERED. If you take them in the correct order, you will have gotten to them in the quickest and most efficent path through the level. Marking the locations of each pillar on the map as you find them will be of great help if you have to re-do the quest due to running out of time. Again disregard this if you are not doing this quest solo.

3. Once you've cleared out a room and the doors are unlocked, MOVE! Ignore any additional monsters that materalize in previous rooms, as long as the doors are open, you should be moving on to the next room, ignore the boxes as well any items unless your health or TP is low. Grab only what is essental to your survival, ignore everything else as your time will run out quick if you're goofing around too much!

4. If you are a technique using RA or you're a FO, KEEP THAT SHIFTA AND DEBAND GOING! Every little bit helps! Again, SLAUGHTER, slaughter, slaughter... :onion117:

5. Make sure you have at least 7-10 minutes left on the clock after you get the last pillar as the final room(DO NOT leave the room after you get the to the 4th pillar, a warp portal will appear momentarily) you're going to wind up at will constantly respawn monsters. Even after you think you're done, more will continue to spawn, so again keep slaughtering them as fast as your little character can go!

Anyway, hope this helps guys and gals, peace and love, good luck! :onion-head11:
