Where can I find Failed Experiments?

Looking for a place to hunt these on a primal earth character. All I keep finding is ghouls in the tunnels.

I only really remember them from a mission arc or two...

If you choose to fight the ghouls in the Neutropolis Zone event, then there is about 30 Failed Experiments.


The first step in being sane is to admit that you are insane.

only in mishs, or you can get some from completing the great escape event in neutropolis

This is the best way to approach it I think. The event nets you the event badge and other goodies in the meantime, and with a full team you should be able to get your kill quota for the FEs easily (remember the new scaling system for boss vs lt's vs minions). I was getting frustrated on the underground hunt yesterday when someone pointed this fact out to me. Now I feel t3h dumb for it.

I ran two Neutropolis events this morning, and got the Failed Experiment badge that way. One thing I noticed on the second run, is that if you ignore Lucan, the final boss, Failed Experiements seem to keep spawning.

On the first run, I duoed with Dollmistress, and we got to around 50% credit to the Failed Experiment badge. On my second run, though, I was alone, and only minions were spawning. If I'd defeated Lucan right away, I would not have gotten the badge. Ignoring Lucan, I was able to kill enough to get the badge. It may very well be possible to get enough Failed Experiments in a single run with this strategy if you're only running solo or duo.


Q. Just wondering Posi, where are the new dance emotes we were told would come with GR?

Remember to do the event three times - first for the event badge, second fight the ghouls and get the tantrum emote reward plus the Escapee badge, then finally side with the ghouls and get the flex emote.

I love the tantrum emote

Huh. I was wondering what the heck you were talking about in BMT channel yesterday. That's pretty cool. I guess I'll need to run the event one more time.

I got the tantrum emote last night on my second run at this but I don't think I've seen the flex emote you mentioned. I assume it's a new flex emote unlike the few other flexes we already have correct?

Yep, I picked up the ghoul flex yesterday (/e ghoulflex). You need to side with the ghouls and fight the PPD to get the flex option in the reward table.

To do this, attack and kill one of the PPD lying on the ground at the start of the event. It's pretty cool, the event takes a completely different path.

Incidentally, does anybody know if either of the other events provide emote, or other types of special, reward options?

The protester event gives you a temp power option: Molotov Cocktail. I haven't gotten the power yet as I have only done that event once for the badge. I've done the ghoul one 3 times already.

The Syndicate event gives you a 'Katana' temp power. I have gotten this one and it ain't no katana. You draw a curved sword in each hand - looks like two scimitars.

I don't know if either of those gives an alternate power if you take the other side. I haven't done them enough yet.

Cool. I'll be running those again post haste.
