Nutrient-Rich aka The Blarf Badge

[Voltor]

For radiation armor: TURN OFF particle shield and for Bio Armor: TURN OFF the Ablative Carapace

 

If the above powers are on, your tank or brute or scrapper will be clicking Blarf for a long, long time.

Blarf's location in Pocket D, if he is not attached to a character and followign them around is:   [-156.8 0.0 -776.1]

Blarf just needs a nibble! No need to keep being defeated over and over.

I kept clicking and nothing happened until my alt dropped and had to hospital and the badge dinged.

That is the way to get the badge. Blarf needs to eat the player. That's why the badge is called 'Nutrient Rich.'

So is the idea just to keep clicking on Blarf until it...what, does massive damage and kills you?  I've been clicking on it for like 15 minutes, seen others get killed, but so far nothing.

 

I'm on a DP/MC blaster, FWIW.

 

Ah, never mind.  Finally got it.  At least in my case, it involved clicking on Blarf a lot in rapid succession.

Just let it defeat you and you'll get it. Blarf is consuming the player and eventually eats them. That's why the badge is called Nutrient Rich.

"Let it defeat you" was the part I wasn't able to get to, though.  If I just clicked once every few seconds, I only took minor DoT of about -1 per second.  I had to basically click repeatedly and quickly to get it to do the big damage attack.

It is actually just doing -MaxHP debuff stacks on the player. You can see with each click on Blarf, it adds another stack. I've got up to 20, but if you can watch your own MaxHP in combat attributes, you'll see it plummet to 1, then Blarf does its attack.

Is there any purpose to the "Legacy" Salvage you get from being Blarf's buddy?

It's not just an armored set issue, my badger is a /plant blaster and had to turn off the sustain.

I think it's anything with Absorb can cause issues since the DOT is very low and what Blarf does is debuff your HP cap, so any absorb potentially would protect you
