Overview
A major player in the Syndicate has been traced to Imperial City. Will you help the PPD capture him?
Description
Just west of the Yin Corporation building in Imperial City sits the L-shaped Megalith building. The event begins at the building's front door, in the corner of the L.
Here you will find 3 Syndicate guarding the door. Take down these guards and the event will begin. There does not appear to be a way to support the Syndicate. Each segment has a ten minute timer, and once the event is completed, there is a one hour cooldown timer.
- Force your way inside the building.
- 40 Syndicate to defeat, 40 PPD remaining.
The first stage is a street battle between the Syndicate and the PPD, with the player assisting the PPD. The player's task is to defeat 40 Syndicate guards before 40 PPD are defeated. There will be three PPD and five Syndicate out at any given time, with replacements coming quickly for those defeated.
- Force the boss to show himself.
- Undeclared objective
Once you have defeated enough guards, the surviving participants will all rush for the front door of the building. Follow them and you will find yourself inside an office building. In this section, the objective seems to be to discover the means by which to proceed - the UI gives no assistance. There are three named Syndicate, three bombs, and three sets of PPD being held hostage. Any or all of the objectives must be completed to move on. There are also numerous additional Syndicate throughout the building that can be ignored.
This editor completed these objectives in the listed order, and only was able to move on after all of them were complete. Due to being unable to run the event a second time, please help by confirming the exact requirements.
- Prevent the Boss' Escape
- Defeat the Boss and 25 of his guards
When the objective is complete, all remaining Syndicate on the floor will exit through the elevator to the roof. Follow them to find a named boss and several (5?) guards. Once the boss is defeated, the message "Powerful Winds Arriving" will flash on the screen. From this point on, every so often players and enemies alike will occasionally be hit with a knockdown/back effect. This will cause no damage, but will wake any sleeping enemies. Knockback protection of at least magnitude 9 will mitigate this effect. Be wary of falling off the building roof!
This editor was getting blown around some at first, but turned on Acrobatics and was not knocked down again. Please check to see what effect, if any, falling off the building has on event progress. Also verify the degree of KB protection required.
Reward Choices
The availability of the rewards is proportional to your level of participation. As there is only one side to take, there are no side-specific awards.
When the event was completed successfully, this editor was badge hunting and took the badge without bothering to read most of the choices. The Katana temp power caught my eye as the box closed, but the correct name of the temp power was not seen. Please assist by confirming the reward table choices. This is basically a rough draft.
- Takedown Artist badge.
- Choosing this reward grants the Takedown Artist Badge.
