[[File:Story missions.png|frame|Story missions, as seen at the mission counter in episode 2]]
Story Missions encompasses the story of ''Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity.'' The story is divided into 2 parts: Episode 1, and Episode 2, which the player can choose from upon entering Story Mode.  
: ''Missions that advance the main story. The enemies you face will grow stronger in accordance with your level.''
'''Story missions''' are the main story of ''Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity''. As the name implies, they may only be played in [[story mode]], and [[partner characters]] cannot be taken with the player, as story missions require the participation of specific partner characters, who will automatically be added to the party. There are different story missions available, depending on if the player enters episode 1, or episode 2.


Initially, the player will only have access to the current story mission, and must clear them in order. It is possible a story mission is not available, and in this case, the player must follow the instructions in the story progress tab in the main menu, which may range from meeting a certain character on [[Clad 6]], or clearing an [[open missions|open mission]].
Note that the player cannot access Episode 2 story missions or side stories missions from Episode 1, and vice versa (Even after clearing both episodes).  


After clearing all story missions for an episode, story missions may be replayed in any order at any time, with the exception of [[Chapter 10 - Act 2]], and [[Chapter 10 - Act 3]] in episode 1, which must be cleared from [[Chapter 10 - Act 1]].
Initially, players can only access the story missions in order. Clearing these missions allows the player to progress through the story, and unlock more content related to story progress. Once an ending is reached, the player can access the story mission in any order (with the exception of the [[Episode 1 Chapter 10|Episode 1 Chapter 10 Act 2 and 3]] and [[Episode 2|Episode 2 Chapter 5 Act 2 and 3]], which must be accessed in order), as well as Hard Mode Story missions.


Story missions are an important aspect of the game, as clearing story missions is required to unlock other content, such as [[open missions]], [[tactical missions]], [[clothes]]/[[parts]], stock in the [[Battle Shop]], among other things. Therefore, it is recommended that players look to clear all story missions as soon as possible.
Note that, to reach [[Hard Mode Clear]], all Hard Mode Story missions must be cleared, not just the final chapters.
==Mechanics==
Story missions are unique in that [[creatures]] in the [[missions]] will scale to the player's [[level]], to a limit. This means that playing other missions to level up will not necessarily give the player an advantage in clearing the story, unless the player outlevels the maximum creature level for the mission.


Upon completing an act, the player will be given a choice to return to Clad 6, or proceed to the next act if available. If the player chooses to continue to the next act, their player status will remain the same as at the end of act 1, including HP, blast gauge, and current NPC behaviour. They will also keep any effects accumulated on their weapon if applicable, such as [[Rengokuto Ensa]]'s extra ATK from defeating creatures.
Upon completing the Act 1 of a chapter, the player is given a choice to return to Clad 6, or to continue into Act 2. Returning to Clad 6 will allow the player to restock or take other missions, and can access Act 2 from the mission counter at any point onwards until Act 2 is completed; Continuing into Act 2 will move the player into Act 2, while retaining the current character condition, including HP and Blast Gauge. They will also keep any effect accumulated on their weapon, such as [[Rengokuto Ensa]].  


If a player is incapacitated at the final room of a story mission, on any subsequent attempts of the mission, they may choose to restart from the final room instead of replaying the entire mission again. However, clearing a mission using this method will automatically drop the mission evaluation to C rank.
If a player is incapacitated at the final room of a mission ([[Boss Creatures]] or not), on any subsequent attempts of the mission, they can choose to start from the final room (With the exception of [[Episode 1 Chapter 10 Act 3]] and [[Episode 2 Chapter 5 Act 3]]). However, clearing a mission using this method will automatically drop the mission evaluation to C rank.  
===Cutscenes and dialogue===
During every story mission, various cutscenes will play to progress the story of the game, and flesh out the characters of the story. These cutscenes can be skipped by holding start, which will advance the player to the next controllable segment: Either a dialogue option, or the end of the cutscene.


A chat log can also be opened with {{Triangle}} if needed, and if the player wishes to view the character portraits or background art in full, {{Cross}} will remove the speech box temporarily.
== Episode 1 ==
<tabber>
Normal=


Dialogue options will also be presented to the player from time to time, which will cause the character that the player is speaking to to respond differently. However, this is not change any major aspects of the story, although friendship level points towards [[Emilia]] and [[Nagisa]] will be lost or gained depending on the dialogue chosen, affecting the ending that the player will receive.

===Side stories===
A special set of [[tactical missions]], called side stories, become available after the completion of certain story missions. They can be found on [[Clad 6]] under tactical missions.


These missions are not required to advance the story, but give rewards that cannot be earned anywhere else, such as extra [[partner characters]] or [[open missions]].
