Hunt down Shen mission from Bobcat

[eknudson]

Bobcat's "Hunt down Shen" mission may be the most insane mission I've played in regular, non-task force content in this game.

 

Not long after entering the mission, you're attacked by a horde of minions. A literal horde--twentysomething minions all at once. They can be one-shot by many of your powers, but they do a fair amount of damage when they hit. They don't give xp, or inspirations. They see through stealth. They follow you down elevators.  And there is more than one such horde. When you fight through them to get to the boss, he calls yet another horde of about 20 minions-- and defeating the boss does NOT bring up the exit button, you have to beat all of them or run through them to get out.

 

Is there a mission like this blue or red side that I've missed?

No, there isn't, really.   Yellowside was designed with the idea that you'd have already played the game as a hero or villain already and thus know you way around the game.  As such, the content is significantly harder.

Seriously, can we get a limit to necroing threads?

look like a normal question / response lololol

I'm beginning to wonder if folks are bringing back ancient threads just to mess with Greycat...😶....😏....hmmm.

 

On topic, I love gold side as a litmus test for builds. It's like New York: if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere.

It's because Bwah Ha Ha HAAAAAAAA you'll never catch me, nor your little dog, too!

It's a little like some of the early Vahz missions, the first with ambushes, IIRC, where you suddenly have a mob following you around the zone. Pretty freaky if you're not aware it's going to happen.

Oh boy, we're about to get an increase in necro threads, aren't we? 

 

And I'm all out of popcorn. Sadwright.

Bobcat.  Just the thought of her arc makes me want to vomit in real life.  I don't know if that makes the game designer who built her a sick demented psycho or a true genius who can evoke a physical response in real life with their virtual creation.  I actually think it's more of the first part because the big reason I hate her is because there's too much "Godmode"-ing in the arc.  I don't have an option punch her in the face instead of doing her missions, which is what I want to do.  I consider this poor game design.  But still, they managed to make a villian who I really hate, IRL on personality alone.  None of the other contacts even have enough personality for me to remember what it is, much less feel anything.  I hate her so much that even though I have intentionally run "all the gold side arcs" on several toons, locking xp at 9 and 14 so I complete all 4 arcs at each level, I actually cheat and skip her arc when doing this.
