Walkthrough

• To find and rescue the missing skimmers, and contribute to the event — follow the Water Ley Line that will lead you to Lost Grotto.
• The goal is to capture the area around the skimmers and secure it. This must be done before the timer runs out; otherwise, the event will fail.
  • The event progress bar will start filling as long as there are no Inquest inside the circled area and at least one player is standing there to capture it.
  • If no players are standing in the circle, it will turn red and the foes inside of it that are marked with the icon, will try to re-capture it from you. This will decrease the progress of the event bar.
  • It is recommended to focus the foes inside the capture area first, as it will help to proceed with the event faster.

Dialogue

Event start

Biologist Coreen: Wait, there are Inquest devices out here. Oh no, they're already here, Commander!

Talking to Biologist Coreen while event is ongoing

Biologist Coreen Look for places that the wavehawks could get to but would be hard for others to reach. They like water, if that helps.

It's a place to start, at least.

Event success

Biologist Coreen: They're fleeing! You did it!

Biologist Coreen: I can't thank you enough for what you've done for these gentle creatures.

Notes

• This event appears to be preceded by a phase of randomly spawning Inquest. It seems like it might be a bug, but nevertheless it is a predictor that the event will be starting soon. ^{[verification requested]}

Anomaly:

This event has the same name (with different casing) as the one that comes before, Find and rescue the missing skimmers (80).
