Leprechaun Vanity pet not giving influence boost?

[brian9824]

The wiki says he gives a 10% boost to influence gains, but not seeing any difference when I use him in game.  Is the wiki wrong?

You need to beat the Leprechaun to get it to work.

I haven't seen any of the sequels on leprechaun, despite having liked the original as a kid. Given that he put together a go-kart from hell in a barn in about 30 seconds I'm not surprised he's wielding lightsaber as he must be strong with the force.

 

@brian9824 you're likely looking at an old wiki either paragonwiki or the fandom one, which show the game as it was when it was live. Check the homecoming wiki, which is updated based on these servers. The Leprechaun does not give an influence increase in homecoming, otherwise literally everyone would have them all the time in game.

Those aren't socks they are Leather  . . . . leggings, yeah leggings in a fade line pattern.  But I can see your confusion considering my history of contradictory statements and hypocritical commentary 🙂

I had, based on the history it looks like the Homecoming wiki got updated based on this thread after I posted the question so now its correct 🙂

 

Here was the old page on Oct 29th - https://homecoming.wiki/w/index.php?title=Vanity_Pet&oldid=314319

that's...

 

not a light sabre.

 

I'm thinking you're not very good on Leprechaun anatomy... but there's a reason they're always chasing the rainbow...

To provide you with an actual serious answer, that may have been disabled. The original archived Wiki does state the 10%, but if you look at the unofficial wiki, its been removed which leads me to believe that feature was--at some point--likely taken off. There's a chance it probably conflicted with the bonus XP granting abilities and how they impact Influence, I'm not sure, it's been four years since then.

Personally glad it doesn't.  Wouldn't exactly be thrilled with every team I join having 7 leprechauns running around.
