Mission reset and enemies are turrets.

Okay. Anyone else having this issue?

I had a paper mission I used for a brute so he could build up tip missions quickly. Post patch yesterday:

  • Mission title gone from "Defeat Archon Rossi and Guards" to "Defeat BOSS_NAME and Guards"
  • Now on a different map.
  • All enemies in the mission are gun turrets.

I haven't seen that recently, but it's an old (type of?) bug. Happened to me once briefly before Going Rogue, and all the enemies were replaced with Praetorian Clockwork! That was exciting and mysterious, since I hadn't seen them before.

Gun Turret Land sounds less interesting though.

Yup. Happened to me, too. It's almost tempting to keep, because they spawn in groups that can't run.



But this isn't the first time I've seen this happen. Last time it was Pumicites in flooded mission maps.

Kill 'em all. Let XP sort 'em out.

Its a long-time bug for radio/paper missions that are held when a new issue comes out. The generic spawn for that mission gets replaced by some other generic spawn.

Count yourself lucky that the new spawn is the same level as the old. Some people have walked into missions with foes 20 levels higher (because the new faction's minimum spawnage level is much higher than the actual mission).

Well. It also happened on my bubbler for her "go to" mission.

And I'd be VERY surprised if I walked into a mission with L70 turrets.

A while ago I had a hero mission where all the mobs were replaced by Loyal Citizens. Which self-respecting hero would fight those?!

However, whenever the developers add new enemy groups (and/or maps) and the internal numbering scheme changes, such missions get changed again. Back then, I kept the mission for fun, but by now the mission spawns vanguard soldiers and runs in a First Ward flooded office building...
