The thing I don’t want is that Agents just consist of running the 2-3 best Plots repeatedly with the same Agents. This is how the first set of Plots ended up, and that’s ok for the first set to be mechanically simple. But I really hope the future sets create (the option of) variance in the cycle.
And one form that could take is a bullpen of extra Agents that only get called up for infrequent special missions. I think that would be cool, thematically, and also justify having ten Agents for only three Plots slots. For whatever implementation of “infrequent” one cares to implement.
What I’m seeing so far, without getting as far as the Mole, is that it looks like one of the Intelligencier plots basically has a 4-plot cooldown. Not necessarily my favorite approach, I might have preferred more RNG, but I like that it sets the stage for alternating or varying the splits being run. I like the direction that this is growing.
And I love they way that did it with the new agensts!
3 because it’s lowered by 1 by the current plot or two if you fail it. Glad someone managed to update the wiki as I didn’t find the time in when I finished the failed plot.
All in all, I am very happy about the agent system and that we have very long plots which can be repeated easily (?). Someone please confirm the 500 AP it’s easily repeated.
EDIT: Checking wiki, I think we have the requirements for the Mole. Also, don’t forgot about the guide!
I think they overshot with checks this time, requirements for 100% are too high for “second best” gear even for very old/wealthy players. And losing reward for 500-1000 actions plots hurts.
As a reasonably old/wealthy player, I used only second-best gear and got through the first loop check at 100%, the second at 94%. Now I’ll go for a cash-in.
But even if that 94% failed, I don’t care, I refuse to buy better gear just for an Agent. If she fails with a set of hand-me-downs, so be it. Agent EPA is not real EPA! ; )
Does anyone know when or how the new Mood is supposed to go away? Not that I’m complaining about a free boost to my PoC, but the tooltip said three days and it’s getting close to two weeks.
Do tell what’s the reward, do tell!
