Wow, they broke more than they fixed.
Which is why we have more DT tomorrow...
Things to remember:
-Common sense ain't;
-Overkill is the only kill;
-If someone asks if you're a god, run away.
Yeah I've encountered this bug and have actively gone on a hunt since finding out about it yesterday to run as many Carnie missions as possible. I'm absolutely loving the Random EB in my spawns 
, it really should be made into a feature available through difficulty settings.

I agree, it would certainly spice up paper and tip missions.
We are currently working on a fix for this issue. We thank you for your patience.
With the travesty of a story given in the underground trial, i say leave it as is.
Why wouldn't the carnival on both sides preatorian & primal, be p.od' about what happened.
Now only if we could hunt desdemona into extinction.
I am curious if anyone has seen this yet.. Last night my duoing buddy and I were running Tina s arc and overheard someone saying they had actually seen Vanessa on the streets. At the time we were about to enter the mission where you talk to Devore about why the Clockwork attacked Carnies... Knowing what has been going on I wondered if our mission had created her.
I didnt have time to confirm and didnt actually see her myself but several others were talking about it.... So has anyone else found DeVore roaming around outside missions.

the bug appears to be that the EB (does she go AV too?) vanessa is flagged to spawn with normal enemy groups so i would assume it could happen anywhere that carnies spawn

Ran this tip on two different characters last night and had to kill her 4 times in the first mission and 2 times in the second one.

No. While fighting Vanessa DeVore unexpectedly was novel, I'd rather not continue looking over my shoulder every time I'm fighting Carnies.

I actually don't mind this bug... I like the idea of EB's?AV's showing up randomly in missions with their villian groups. This is a far less annoying bug then the interface reset bug.
I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.
In addition to fighting the EB Vanessa DeVore in a couple different tips over the weekend I also did the Peregrine Island Safeguard and the guy robbing the bank was Scirocco (as an EB). Lord Recluse must have cut back on their pay when he cut a deal with Vanguard to fight the Praetorian invasion

This isn't a bug. Heck, the contact will even warn you about it. If your difficulty is cranked high enough, or your team is large enough, the robber may be one of the Arachnos Elite...possibly even Recluse himself, though I usually run into Ghost Widow.

Oh, didn't know that. The team was just me and I run +0/x4 on my blaster, is that enough to trigger it?
Not a big deal he went down as fast as the boss usually does just thought it was funny to see one of Recluse's lackies robbing a bank.
So today, I played through the Art, Psychics & You level 40+ tip mission (Hero version) and I find a surprise appearance by Vanessa DeVore (sporting the original boss' name) at the end. Fortunately I didn't have too much trouble fighting her, but the last several times I've gone through this tip (like yesterday), she was most certainly not part of the mission. Has anyone else run into something similar to this following today's patch?
