Does the Nemesis System work?

yinjeigh

So, it's been about 2 years since I've gotten a nemesis clue on my main character. I actively farmed for awhile, killing anything I could to try to force a spawn. I eventually gave up on it. But now, I'm attempting to plan events for my RP SG that require nem missions and I still can't get a clue for the life of me.

Does anyone know if the spawning system is broken? Any and all help/feedback would be appreciated.

The Nemesis minions still spawn and there is a way to manipulate them to do so

The best way to summon them is by breaking objects (specifically the chairs in RenCen) and pick up the Boost orbs they drop
While you are in battle mode (from attacks chairs) picking the Boost Orb(s) will trigger the minions to spawn

Just be careful because there is a bug which have been going on, if you touch the minions in melee range during the smal time frame they had been summon, they will get despawn​​

Do I recall correctly that there is a bug wherein if someone else somehow picks up your Nemesis clue and doesn't discard it you will never get another clue for the intended character? Sorry, I don't remember details.

That is correct, if someone picks your Nemesis clue in a Nemesis Alert, they are unable to use it and if they don't discard it the mission chain freezes and you are unable to continue nemesis missions until the person removes the item, even if they stop playing that character
Thous preventing you for ever getting a new nemesis mission ever again

Its a game breaking bug for the nemesis system​​

I wonder if the devs could just do a purge of all Nemesis clues sitting in people's bags? There are probably people no longer playing who have clues in their bags, which will sit there until the game close, which are keeping current players from fully enjoying the content. Just saying.

Also, check with Defender and the Police Chief. There are a couple points that they're holding the missions for you.

Nemesis Clues really should have a expiration time. Like a week or something.

This.

Other things have timers.

If you don't get around to the clue in time then no biggie; It will drop for you again.

That someone can sit on someone else's clue and kill their nemesis missions, forever, is just bad design.

But does anyone that can fix the problems care? Signs point to "No".

Do DEVs even care for Nemesis system? No, no they don't

this is why its left full of bugs​​
