Totally Weird Idea Derived From Other Thread

[Rudra]

Okay, so in the "Facing towards stairs at RWZ when transitioning in and out of the base" thread, part of the discussion shifted to attackers getting inside the Vanguard base via the base portal. Setting aside how enemies can gain access via base portals, that discussion gave me a weird idea.

 

What if the bay area with the base portal had emitters that erected a containment field on that part of the base in case somehow enemies got in that way? And what if there were small ceiling emplacements to gas said enemies or stun them or whatever? Not asking to have an actual force field pop up at any time, just that some... greebles?... whatever little details glued on models are called, be added to that area to imply or show that capability.

 

Like I said, this is a totally weird idea. So I'm not going to hold my breath on it, just needed to get it out of my head.

Did you know you can enter the tunnel where Nemesis comes in during the TinPex?

I've done both Apex and Tin Mage. No recollection of seeing Nemesis in either. Or are you talking about entering some tunnel while you're in the midst of one of the two tfs? So, I guess my answer is no, as I'm not clear on what you're talking about here.

I'm not sure why they mentioned Tinpex since that's accessible outside any TF. (And I don't think it's there in any of them)

yeah, that is the secret room that is always avail in the RWZ base

[Ukase]

Yeah, I've been in that room, but the way they worded it, made it sound incorrect.

What am I thinking of then?

There's some mish or TF (pretty sure TF) where there there is a cut scene at the start of a mish and it's got Lady Grey and Nemesis invading some talks...

[biostem]

Didn't they just deactivate the exit portal during Tinpex?

I think the cutscene is from one of the Rikti Warzone arcs, but that's a different area.   Actually pretty close to where Dark Watcher is hanging out iirc.

Which predates the Flat Nemesis area by quite a bit.

I think that mission is in Serpant Drummer's arc.

Yeah, that is from Serpent Drummer. The Conference Security mission.
