What happens if you get the glowies in a BAF?

Been doing alot of Behavioral Adjustment Facility Trials and noticed outside of the hospital that there are glowies. I have never touched one, because the league leaders tell me to never touch them, but they get too busy to explain.

So what does happen if I interact with the glowy outside of the hospital while doing a BAF?

I think it disables the guard towers

it disables the tower above it for I think 20 seconds.

potentially making the phases they are active in alot easier.

It also stops you're league from getting a badge, and an Astral merit.

If the Wiki entry on the subject is correct, and it often is, clicking the glowie and disabling the towers makes the league ineligeble for one of the astral rewards.

And, really, there's rarely a reason to disable the towers; If you pull NS/Siege to the wall north of the courts, that's in the towers' blind spot. If you know where to stand (between the buildings for NS, in the doorway for Siege) you can stay out of the line of fire while keeping them separated. Pretty sure there's blind spots around the helipad too if you've got most of a team focusing on the adds.

Thanks, that makes alot of sense. I won't touch those glowies, that can cost a league 4 threads, or Astral Merits that can be used to buy junk from Astral Christy.
