It is encrusted with sharkmist and HMRC. On the item is an image of HMRC and Pancaek. Pancaek is laughing. The HMRC is melting. The artwork relates to the encasing of the HMRC in metal by Pancaek during the Mission of Many People.))

The only way I can think of to give newbies and vets proper challenge is segregation. Have some noob missions without any veteran babysitters, and have some veteran missions without any newbie tagalongs. Not sure if that can be justified IC though, or if it would be fun. Of course keep some mixed missions too.

I like this solution a lot. It also means that you don't have Jimkins#28 along with Superman, Batman, and Scienceman in the game-critical mission to close an eldritch rift that spews tokens.

There's no reason to overcomplicate things. Surprise attack with a LESHO rifle. Problem solved.

If I survive the Hephaestus basement maze of mystery and have enough money, I'll get a LESHO rifle. Otherwise I'll get the Heavy Gauss Cannon.

Kinda wish people would help investigate. It would make the mission go more quickly.

You plan to be a person of mass destruction? You are packing quite heavy firepower already.
It will give me a good long range option and a weapon that can take out really difficult targets. Even alien ones, with LESHO grav shells. That's the only thing I'm missing right now. I could do the same thing with a Battlesuit-sized version of that new "special effects bullets" weapon whose name I forget, but it still wouldn't have the range and power of a LESHO. Plus, it's the biggest dick out there, besides battlesuit sized LESHOs.

You could tell me that with my stats I could use Unconventional weapons for the same things, but I have made a choice to try and stay away from space magic. If I finally get that LESHO, I'll probably invest on Aux next. I'd love to have a drone under my command I could upgrade into a lesser murdermachine. A sort of mini-me. Or maybe some jeanmods.

None of that are ever likely to be useful. The kind of missions I'm in are usually not the ones that can be solved with guns and armour. But I like upgrading anyway, on the off chance something ends up being useful or fun. I guess that's how people who put spoilers and second bumpers on their cars feel.

((Maybe the VR sim will just show Milno sneaking up to Saint when he's using the VR and killing him before going back to business as usual :P))
What's the worst thing that could happen in VR, if PW gets miffed and there's an unfortunate "data error"?

Among the worst options for syv's char that I've thought up is that he gets installed into a little sandbox simulation he can't leave. On survival mode for him alone. With everyone onship allowed to edit. No end to the torture that way.

@Paris
I dunno about car people, but that's exactly how most gun collectors I've known feel.  Mildly disturbing, when you think about it.

@NJW
Yeah, that's probably the worst thing that could be done in VR, but it certainly isn't the most terriffying thing that could be done to Saint.

That would be putting his brain back into a flesh body, with no MMI.  And then the Doctor sending him a text stating "Busy now.  Your request is fascinating though.  Will have time in ten days."

His name is likely to produce a syntax error in Lars' holiness perception centers, so they have been deliberately kept apart until now.

We got 3 missions, limbo, tinker, and on ship. I'm not counting Infinite heavens and Intoxicated because they are easy and I can do them any time.

Monday: Limbo, M25, Tinker
Tuesday: M26, On ship, M24
Wednesday: Limbo, M25, Tinker
Thursday: M26, On ship, M24
Friday: Limbo, M25, Tinker
Saturday: M26, On ship, M24

Wow, yeah, that's quite a heavy schedule. But if you think you can keep that up, more ER is always nice!
