While letting Twinshot die is satisfying, cannot complete the mission, cannot exit.

i was running Twinshot's second arc, second to last mission, when i noticed that hostage twinshot was taking damage. she was taking damage from the praetorian mender's AOE. it was not very much, but it added up.  so in the name of science, and all of that, i let her die. 😈

 

after the post death ragdoll physics twisting body horror, twinshot disappeared. normally after defeating the enemies, you are supposed to talk to her to complete the mission. but since she was DEAD!, this was impossible. unable to complete the mission normally, i had to be rescued by a GM and forcing a mission complete to my eternal gratitude. 😄

 

i doubt this will be fixed, since it would be rare outcome, unless done deliberately. 😎 but it is another case of NPC hostage dying due to mob AOE splatter damage. 

 

oh no!

 

oops! oh god no, why is she twisting around like that????

 

hmmmm...

fixed at least one typo :D

I'll reiterate here, I don't think ANY "rescue" mob should be capable of taking damage prior to the rescue.

one of my first bug reports is from like may 2019, concerning an alignment mission with freaks and their grenades killing their low level hostages immediately and breaking the mission.
