No Nemesis in NemCon

klytustrueklytustrue Posts: 43 Arc User
edited August 2012 in Missions and Content
I have done NemCon 3 different times now with 3 different toons, all with different powers, yet I have *never* once gotten to see my Nemesis. Not.Once. None of my Nems have Darkness powers, and I always wait until after I've put them in jail and Shadow Destroyer comes to free them before I do the NemCon run. Yet when I do the NemCon mission, I always get stuck with a "generic" Nemesis.

Is there some trick to this? Or is my account simply bugged?

    See there's a pattern there.
    Because you need an active nemesis. One in jail (or "freed") isn't active if not chosen as one when you create a new nemesis.

    you would't be talking about a nem named "generic man" would you?
    I kinda have a nem by that name.he was meant to be a joke and for farming Q,I even made him single blade to be easy.

    I thought of that just after I'd posted. Thing is, I always thought that they HAD to be "in jail", but freed, by Shadow Destroyer in order to appear in NemCon.

    I'll go "free" a nemesis and see what happens...

    Klyt, your problem is obvious. You allowed logic and storyline to make it into what you expected to happen. NC "should" pick(randomly would be preferred) from completed Nemesis who have actually been in that particular scene which would make sense for them to appear in NC.

    Problem is...that's just not how it works. Perhaps someday "Soon(tm)" the engine technology will be developed to make this work in a more logical sense that fits into the established storyline....

    ...course perhaps "Soon(tm)" we'll finally get at least enough missions to make at the very least 4 Nemesis without a single repeat and with different starting(there's 2) and ending(there's 1) missions. Alas, that is but a dream but sometimes it's fun to be the dreamer. :wink:

    Flyingfinn:

    Yep, that was it. I went and changed a nemesis from "In Jail" to "Active". Lo and Behold (not the Canada mission of the same name), he appeared in the NemCon run.

    Crosschan:

    You're right: What was I thinking when I allowed "logic" to play a role in my assumption of how things work in game? ;)

    By the way, if you're going to abbreviate my name, "Kly" works best. It's pronounced Kly-tus :)

    Oh! So he has to be active and not in jail? Awesome!!

    I'll have this in mind the next nemcon I run to :3
