Portal Jockey, Dimensional Warder questions

Ok, so I've found a brute that I'm really having a lot of fun with (TW/Elec, currently at 46 running 37% s/l) and I'm working on getting him some accolades.

Now, I've run the Hero's hero arc from Maria Jenkins and I'm looking over the rest of the requirements. It seems I still need to beat Siege. Now, the wiki lists that I defeat him in the 'Bring back the missing scanners'. The issue is... there is no such mission listed in the Maria Jenkins wiki entry so I'm not sure if I somehow missed him in the arc I've already run and need to run it again through ouro, or if it's in one of the missions I have not yet done for her.

Same goes for the Shrouded badge. It lists that I need to spend time in the 'disrupt Nightstar's ritual' mission from Maria, except there is no such mission listed in her wiki entry.

Obviously I want to run all the arcs eventually, but at this exact time I'm more worried about being sure I hit the badge requirements. Anyone know if I just need to keep running missions from her, or did I somehow miss these?

Keep running missions for her. Siege appears outside the arc, as does the mission that grants Shrouded. You can find the Shrouded badge mission in Ouroboros, however.

Just keep running missions from her. She has individual missions where she'll pit you against a lone praetorian (case in point: Siege) and nightstar's specific mission.

if you still miss out on it, just hit up Ouro, the Nightstar mission can be done that way. Don't forget you have to do the Hyrda dimension from Tina Macintyre too.

And if you totally miss Siege, you can still pick up credit for killing him in the BAF iTrial when you're 50.

Keep running missions for her. Those mission were changed and are now Take down the WarWorks and Take down Nightstar

edit: also Part Three: Go to Praetoria and destroy the stolen scanner

I think I fixed those on that wiki page, may be other problems there, though.

He's in Take Down The WarWorks.

It's really Take Down Nightstar.

I'm really not fond of how missions are labeled, both in the game and in Paragonwiki. I found those by going to Maria's page and doing a search for Siege and Nightstar, plus the Nightstar one is listed under Badge Missions in the Contents list.

Edit: Triple-scooped.

Wow, I had no idea at all that she currently had a mission to fight Siege. Since A Hero's Epic came out, I've gotten Siege every time either by running a BAF or by running up to mission three in A Hero's Hero in ouroboros. The latter method may or may not still be quicker than running through her missions until she dispenses the correct one, but I suppose some people would probably rather avoid having to ouro it.

Thanks all, very much appreciated!

It's a very cool arc (I've mostly played red side since when I started with a friend that's what they were doing) and I want to check out what else is going on, I just want to get myself lined up right to get my accolades going.

I think Maria's Arc is among the coolest in the game (new version is even better) and never miss it, it's the first thing I do when I reach 45. Not a huge fan of doing her one-of missions, though...

People already pointed you to the right missions, so I'll just throw out a couple tips you probably already know, but I'll leave here anyway for future reference:

1) For the Shrouded badge, you don't really have to do the mission, just step inside the map, exit (sometimes the exit area doesn't work and you have to use one of the ways to teleport out), check that you have the badge and abandon the mission.

2) You don't actually need to keep DOING missions for Maria until she gives you the ones you want (sometimes she is capricious and takes a looong time to do it), you can just keep picking a random mission from her and abandoning it until the right one shows up...

Good tips, thank you.

The first and foremost thing that I have learned in running these arcs... Marauder is freakin annoying! He seems to have two different T9 armor powers or something. It's boring as heck beating him down through two spans of time where my damage is tanked. Not tough fights, just boring.

He has high Smashing resistance anyway, and also sometimes uses Temp Invuln, and also also sometimes uses Unstoppable. So yeah, if you deal smashing damage, he basically has two godmodes. Which is annoying :/
