Ouroboros Flashback Badge Guide

this is very helpful, thank you!  Chameleon suit still works.

The guide recommends the Origin of Power arc (found in the 20-24 mission band) for the level 1-14 challenge badges.

 

This arc is currently awarding the level 20-24 challenge badges now. Not sure if this is a bug, or if it's now working as intended. I haven't reported it as a bug.

 

The guide should probably recommend something different for the 1-14 range.

01-15 (Hero): "Rescue the Mystic From the Circle of Thorns" 1 mission...lead out (Get Spelunker Badge too)

16-19 (Hero): "Vahzilok Wasting Disease" 1 mission...click 3 glowies.

20-24 (Hero): "I Lost My Daddy" 5 missions...Escort, Talk, Defeat 10 Lost, Defeat Muxley, Escort (Get Rescuer Badge too)

25-29 (Villain): "Eliminate Negotiator and Witnesses" 1 mission...kill Negotiator and Underboss (Get Agent of Discord Badge too)

30-34 (Hero): "Defend the War Walls" 1 mission...rescue 8, defend 3 machines, kill boss (Get War Wall Defender Badge)...board transit so get to it from Ouroboros

30-34 (Villain): "The Unlucky Artifact" 1 mission...Just kill boss

35-39 (Hero): "They Call Me Doctor" 1 mission...find 2 keys, find Doctor (Get Doctor's Ally Badge)

40-49 (Hero): "The Clockwork King's Psychic Signal" 1 mission...Defeat Clockwork King (Get Emancipator Badge)

50 (Hero): "Aura of Power" 5 missions...Talk, Defeat 15 Freaks, 15 Rikti, 15 DE (all found in Crey's), Talk

 

Here's what I went with.

 

Notes:

 

Soloed all these at -1/0 (for speed) and used the OPs suggest restriction pairings for most of the runs.  If it wasn't the suggested pairing, I went with more restrictions.

After running these, if I recall correctly, I actually found a faster lvl 50 hero mission and a faster 20-24 hero arc, but the one listed above went fast.

 

My longest mission was one run of "Defend the War Walls" were the machine was hidden/buried/invisible(?) all these went fast.

 

Ran them with my KM/ELEC Scrapper main.

Is it possible to do Villain-Flashbacks in Oro as a Vigilante?

 

I can only see the Hero Missions.

I would think not, as you can only talk to SF contacts, not regular mission contacts as a Vigilante.  Same in reverse, Rogues can start TFs, but they can't start blue side mission arcs.

Thanks! Had to become Villain/Rogue to access the "Evil" Flashback-missions 🙂

I was looking for an alternative for the 40-49 range (OP suggested Division: Line with 13 missions, some are very tedious) so this is perfect, thank you!

Welcome.  Glad to see people have found it useful 🙂

I find doing most of it red-side with a splash of gold-side a little easier, so I go with

1-15: The Loa Bone (one boss)

16-20: Blood of Tyrants (Imperial Crusader, Ch 5) (no combat, choose resistance and just run to end)

21-25: Pride in Your Work (Neutropolis Power, Ch 4) (no combat, choose loyalist)

26-30: Eliminate Negotiator and Witnesses (two bosses)

31-35: The Unlucky Artifact (one boss, stop him from escaping)

36-40: Attack Longbow Portal Base or B4nKbUsTah (this level range doesn't have great options, but I still think both are easier than the Doctor mission to do with challenges)

41-45: Selestar (one boss, do have to clear his room)

46-50: Wu Yin's Personal Story (no combat)

Those look good if it's just one mission and no combat.  Part of my list was also getting mission badges with them 🙂
