  This trophy was crazy annoying.
  
  You'll want luck and at least one other person with you. The more people killing the easier it is to pull off.
  
  
  When fighting enemies you'll notice sometimes they explode into a pillar of light. This will add a counter to the top right of the screen. We need to reach level 8 and that means you need to kill and kill quickly enough so you don't lose your counter. Every time a burst of light happens it will either add another counter or increase a level. We need one counter to reach level 8.
  
  At level 8 a minute timer will trigger.
  
  Get another pillar of light one more time and that will trigger a PSE BURST and thus the trophy.
  
  This must be done in one area the kill streak won't carry on into a new room

  This is a tough one.
  You usually got it very easily during normal gameplay thanks to randoms in multi-party areas.
  But since most people moved on to PSO2NG or only do the highest level quests, it can get very frustrating nowadays.
  
  You basically want to kill as many enemies as possible quickly.
  The white light pillars indicate PSE progress and your need to reach level 8 before the effect runs out.
  It's completely random so you might need a few attempts.
  I recommend going into a Point Goal quest like the Nightfall Province Exploration.
  Choose the normal difficulty to kill the enemies faster.
  You either need a friend or a fairly high level if you're doing it solo to deal enough damage quickly.
  Redo the quest a few times until your RNG luck strikes. Good luck!
  

  
  Since Trophies don't transfer with cross-save, I had to redo it two times on PS4 and Steam.
  I managed to get it solo both times but my character is already at level 87.
  This was literally my 5th Achievement and I got it randomly when the global release launched for Xbox/PC back in 2020.
  Really shows how the shift of the playerbase impacts the PSE chances in OG PSO2.
