Overview

ARKS Records is a type of content available in Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis. Within ARKS Records, players compete with other players on the same ship in set challenges during an event period for ranking rewards such as ARKS Record Badges.

The rankings of these challenges are determined by the scoring criteria of the event, which varies depending on the type of the event available. The hierarchy of the ranking is as follows: Gold, Silver, and Bronze, with Gold being the highest ranking available, and Bronze being the lowest ranking available. The Participation Rewards, which are distributed at the end of the event period, will depend on the player's final rank placement.

Some Challenge Records may have numerous "leaderboards" associated with the event, allowing for players to earn numerous rewards from each leaderboard. As an example, the Geometric Labryinth: Solo Event has 9 individual leaderboards for each individual class.

Unless otherwise specified, Alliance Task Records will reset on a weekly basis, with the placement rewards distributed at the end of every event period.

Random Challenge Records

The Random Challenge Records change on a weekly basis, with upcoming challenges being announced during the NGS Headline Streams monthly. You can also view the upcoming week's challenge by checking the "Upcoming Events" tab in the Random Challenge Records menu. The rewards for these are set to be the same every week.

Occasionally, there may be class-specific challenges that show up alongside an all-class challenge, mainly when there's been a class rework.
