Add Mathem/Safeguard Missions to Ouroboros

1) With or without the prerequisite newspaper missions? I'm assuming "with", even though that would be a rather odd (disjointed as one poster said) story arc.
Could set one faction as the one to do all 3-5 missions against, but you know folks would quit and restart if they got a faction they hate.
2) Who would serve as the arc's contact? The Broker/Detective would provide a location to TP to from Ouro.

I would go with without the newspaper/police band missions leading up to the mayhem/safeguard. When you flashback in time to do a story arc it makes sense that you can't just jump directly into the second mission without doing the first mission because the second mission springs from your actions in the first. This isn't the case with newspaper/police band misions and mayhem/safeguard missions. The reqirement to do 3-5 newspaper/police band missions to get a mayhem/safeguard is a game mechanic, the two types of missions aren't tied together via the story line. (On a side note I wouldn't mind seperating the two altogether and be able to get mayhem/safeguard missions without having to do newspaper/police band missions.) |

Another way to do this without using Oruroboros would be to level lock these missions the same way TF/SF's are. For example, if a level 50 charecter opens the newspaper in PO they could take a level 10 newspaper mission. after completing 3 such missions they could see their broker for a level 10 AP mayhem.

Even though I'll get negrepped again I'll say I am again it.
I think there should be some things you have to do outside of Ouro
I agree with Kobolt. Since it is teid to a villain accolade there really needs to be a method for Preatorians who end up as villains to get the accolade without needing to rely on finding people in the right range (especially since the number of people in the right range will probably decrease due to them also leveling up new characters as preatorians).
I suggest adding mayhem and safeguard missions to Ororborus so that characters that switch sides can go on these missions on their own. As it stands now the only way a character that switches sides can go on a mayhem/safeguard mission theyve outleveled is to go on another characters mayhem/safeguard mission. This is particularly important for Heroes switching to Villains since it takes the exploration badges from all 9 mayhem missions to earn the Invader Accolade Badge (+5% max health.)
