lemming

I think I may have had Vista loaded when HC first spun up on my old laptop, but getting it all running via Linux made stuff so much easier. And then I replaced all my hardware over the last two years. When the launcher was released, all I wound up doing was installing this, and then just copying over the client side stuff like costumes, etc... As an aside, I nuked my install once with Mids somehow, but other than losing some popmenus I hadn't backed up, it was easy to restore.

Also, some gladiators do not have ranged weapons. I think those hit harder in melee as well, but unsure on that.

Yes. It's based on how many badges and Mote's you have collected, but if you have the Mote of the Gladiator, they are guaranteed to go hostile. Hence the ability to grab one from talking, and then another from defeating.

Should be noted that while I'm collecting Fog Spawn points, I've barely documented all 200 possible locations. Guardians there are 200 as well. I'm in a door connecting streak right now and redoing my data storage there of. Probably will wind up with a decent sized collection of data points after that. (while running around, grabbing more of the other locs too)

It's totally up to you. And I say that as someone with only 50s currently. (Though I'm just starting a couple experiments)

The Cow Doors are for the Mino to be able to go between the Orange and the rest of the Labyrinth. Minotaur costumes allowing us thru was added later.

What helps with them is grabbing a power analyzer. From what I remember, their resistance is pretty constant over types. And there were a bunch of changes to how much HP they had, resistance, etc... Used to rely on the zones level shifts to give them more resistance, now I believe it depends on how many players are near. Reminds me to go pick up some more charges for analyzing.

I was afraid of that. All my chars tend to go thru this arc, but I haven't for quite some time. Wonder what broke

Very odd. Have you tried grabbing the mission via Ouro? (I don't remember where it shows in the Ouro list though, might be at 50)

On discord he said that the secret wasn't reachable and that the door in question is bugged. He also said he'd get a real secret in there soon™

Cobalt confirmed that door should not be a randomizer. That the doors dosn't look different isn't that unusual. Red & Violet are the unusual ones, but the others are fairly normal doors tucked into less usual spots.

Yea, we know what lengths you need to go thru for proper body disposal, and I'm too lazy and poor to do that.

No way to get to the room. It exists, but there's a buggy door in the way. As GP said, it should be fixed. (fully expect it to change locations too...)

Yea, back when I used to work with coroners, there was a case of someone slicing the bones and scattering the bits in the backyard. Apparently, it was a very long jigsaw puzzle, but they got it together. (would have been before 1987) Hmm, not sure if the body in the sewage hopper ever got identified. Only reason I knew about it was it needed a couple special configurations in the program...

And just recreated this since there's a gladiator often near the Red Mote. Walked up to him, he gave me a draught. I then repowered up via Mote. Talked to him again and he went hostile. And I got the second draught after beating him

the Two Brawler stances for Sentinel with SR.

iirc, the dev in question said it was a massive pain in the butt and didn't want to ever go thru that again. (Obviously, if someone with more immediate knowledge weighs in, disregard)

You got to take care of the teeth first. (or so I read...)

A gladiator in that location will only interact with the player once for the purpose of handing out a draught. I did find an edge case the other day, I found one near a mote, he gave me a draught, then I hit the mote which restored the buff for me. I then clicked on him again and he went hostile. So, I think the one time ever is just the chance of giving a draught on first contact. (Not sure if i got a dropped one after defeating the other one.)

It's not anything related to this is it?

Do you remember where you were parked?

Well, just tried again as a hero and no issue. More variables then. (Mine was level 50)

Just popped into the first mission with a vigilante scrapper on Reunion. So it's not a universal problem. Were you a hero alignment?

Regeneration is not a power set available for Tankers. (Will it? Unknown) Brutes can do pretty well with Regen, and there are some good builds out there, but it's more work. Willpower does a good job for tanking most content, but it is weak in debuff protection. (Which incarnates can protect)

Having worked in animal rescue now for 20+ years, yea, nothing is guaranteed (well, safely). My computer room cat made it so every single cable I had in the room had to have a protective sheath or put away when not in use (many headphones later...). One of our current cats will chew on white cables, no other colors interest her. Favorite recovery was pulling a harddrive out of a laptop because the rest was destroyed by a pitbull using it as a chew toy. Also found out the company had even more frightening IT flaws. (I was tasked with it, because the IT guy was a total creep with women. When I was transferring the data to the new laptop, I noticed they had never cleared the previous user's data. Previous user being the CFO...)
