RikOz Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 So what does a guy have to do to find a non-Freakshow story arc in the early- to mid-30s range? Those guys get very tiresome, very quickly - especially when you have as many alts as I do. It's like no matter which contacts I have, my alts consistently get funneled into "The Freaklympics" or "The Freakshow War". Some contacts are especially annoying, in that their "get to know you" missions involve Nemesis or Crey, and get my hopes up, and then when they finally offer an arc, it's one of those Freakshow arcs. (My blasters are getting irritated because Sniping a Freak just takes them down low enough to trigger their self-heal.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScrewlooseCohh Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Freaklympics arc is given by Marvin Weintraub and Colin Larsen. Freakshow War is given by Neal Kirkpartick and Tina Chung. Avoid those contacts and you will avoid those arcs. You will still see Freakshow because they turn up in other missions, but at least you won't get arcs full of them. regards, Screwloose.

Dona Eis Requiem Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Also, doing Ouro flashbacks is a nice way to pick and choose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Snipe followed bu a hold or stun or fear or knockdown is very effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombTyrant Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 This does take me back to when the game was live, learning on my first main, Dark/Rad Corruptor. I always opened with Moonbeam and it was the worst against Freakshow, because SNIPE>HEAL> ME YARGLESCREAMING AS THEY LIFT OUT OF SCOURGE RANGE hahahaha.

Most of my magic-based (or interested) characters are finishing up Croatoa at that point. ... y'know, I don't think I've had Freakshow-heavy arcs for a while, even with my Brickstown/Founders characters... Primarily on Everlasting. Squid afficionado. Former creator of Copypastas. General smartalec. I tried to combine Circle and DE, but all I got were garden variety evil mages.

Blackbird71 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 When you're picking up contacts, pay attention to the Origins they support (most will list two in their "about" messages). In those levels, if the contact does Technology missions, you will most likely get Freaks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when you hit 35, head to RWZ and then you can get sick of Rikti. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huang3721 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 A caveat (especially for that one level in Night Ward): Praetorian ambushes can be painful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
