I believe the flyer is a bug respawn should be 15 min? i think, and i have heard of this happening before. The towers can be built even after destroyed so not a bug. The one being built in the wrong location i have not heard of before but would guess a bug.
No idea about the flier, but the techs rebuilding destroyed towers is not new. They do that.

Yeah the techs have to be taken out too, and if you're not paying attention you lose that tower they fix up.
However, the flier thing sounds like a very bad bug.

I believe it's a twenty minute timer, with the clock starting when you enter the mission.

The flier thing definitely sounds like a bug.
The techs can rebuild towers though, so you have to make sure you kill the last of the techs present at whatever tower you just killed.
As far as I know though, once a tower and any techs associated with it are dead, no MORE techs will respawn.

This. The flyer respawns every 20 minutes, even when it's not defeated.
If you defeat it 2 seconds before it respawns, it respawns 2 seconds later. If it takes you 5 minutes to redefeat it, it will remain unspawned for the next 15 minutes.
Keep track of the time the last mission is spawned. If you enter the mission a 3:24, then the flyer will respawn at 3:44, 4:04, 4:24, etc...

For the flier, the 20 minute timer is correct. So if you defeated it quickly twice and it respawned right after both times, that's a bug or a change.
The techs have always rez'd towers if they get the chance, but doing it in the wrong location would be a bug.
Thanks for all the great feedback. The flier, we defeated again 5 minutes or so after it respawned, and it respawned again nearly instantly.
I never knew that about re-building towers. Learn something new everyday.
What about the flier moving instantly from the position furthest from LR, all the way to where it can attack us while we assault LR in a fraction of a second?

That might have been another respawn, if it happened to be 20 min from the time you last defeated it... When it respawns, it always does so back where LR is.

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, the flier respawns on a 20 minute timer.

[/ QUOTE ] It's not 20 minutes after defeat, it's 20 minute cycle starting from when the mission is instanced. Even if it is still up, it will reset again in 20 minutes.

[/ QUOTE ] It doesn't matter here it is, or what is happening to it, as soon as the 20 minute cycle is up, it will respawn by LR with full health.

Flyer: We defeated the flyer, and it respawned within seconds. Defeated it again, same result.
[/ QUOTE ]
Could be a bug, or just really bad timing for you. It's on a fixed respawn timer (20 minutes). It will respawn at its starting point (near Recluse) regardless of what is happening or what you're doing. Is it possible you just happened to defeat it almost exactly 20 minutes apart?

Towers: None of us had seen this before. Once down, the towers would be re-built by the techs. I knew they could repair damaged ones, but we've never seen them rebuild them before. Also they always rebuilt the orange tower in the wrong spot.

They've always been able to rebuild a destroyed tower. However, I've never seen them put one in the wrong spot.

Probably true, *BUT* the techs can rebuild ANY tower. If you're fighting a tower and someone uses a knockback power to keep the techs away, they can get blasted over by another tower and rebuild a different one.

Got a bunch of friends together, all 8 of us had many many many experiences with the Statesman's Task Force. We were not prepared for what we faced.
In the last mission, where you face the 4 patron AVs, the Flyer and Lord Recluse there appeared to be several changes none of us knew about. If they weren't changes, then bugs, or just extremely rare random behavior that we weren't expecting.
Flyer: We defeated the flyer, and it respawned within seconds. Defeated it again, same result.
Flyer II: Since we could not keep the flyer down, we fought the towers and LR with the flyer attacking us too. We'd wait till the flyer was all the way on the other side of the area, as far away as it gets. As soon as we started our assault, the flyer seemed to teleport into position were it could attack us.
Towers: None of us had seen this before. Once down, the towers would be re-built by the techs. I knew they could repair damaged ones, but we've never seen them rebuild them before. Also they always rebuilt the orange tower in the wrong spot. They put it closer to the ledge, closer to where the flyer patroled.
Are these changes, bugs, or just stuff that has been there before, but we've never seen?
Thanks in advance.
