Talk:Doc Delilah

Contact and NPC Ally

Doc Delilah appears as an NPC Ally in a Penelope Yin's mission, and one of her own missions. Do we have a precedent for handling this? User:StarGeek/sig 11:27, 14 October 2006 (PDT)

NPC Ally info

She appears to be an Invulnerability/Super Strength tanker.

• Class: Pet

Background

Doctor Delilah Stein was born with her Herculean strength and incredible physical resistance. She fought evil as a heroine for a time, but eventually found her real calling: History and Archeology. Now she combines her past life and her education into a new career as an historian of meta-human history, and an archaeologist of the unusal. Dr. Stein recently began investigating the hero bases lost in the destruction of Overbrook, looking for clues to fill in the history of pre-Rikti war heroes and villains.

Dispute: her attacks appear to do both knockback and stun, which suggests that she's one of these impossible hybrids that only NPCs can be. The article says she's magic origin; I would very much like to see a citation on that, because her background suggests that she's mutation origin. Dark Horizon 06:36, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Actually, Jab and Hand Clap in Super Strength both have stun (disorient) components, so that still fits. (The hold component in Knockout Blow uses the disorient animation as well.) The statement that Doc Delilah is a Magic origin contact is based on the enhancements she sells. While the origin of the enhancements sold usually match the that of contact themselves, that's not always the case. In this case, you are correct that it sounds more like Doc Delilah herself is Mutation origin, but the statement that she is a Magic origin contact is still correct. --Eabrace 20:23, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
