Quick Drowning in Blood Badge Question

For the badge where you have to collect the meteor samples, how exactly do you do this? Just click a meteor ?

Talk to the Longbow Scientist at the very beginning. Go through everything she has to say, and she'll clear you to take samples. Her name will be grey, but she looks like a Warden and will have a tech device. For villains, substitute the Longbow scientist with an Arachnos one.

Then you hit up each of the four meteors throughout the trial. Once you get a sample from all four, you'll get the badge.

Thanks got the badge.

I haven't tested either of these, they're just things I've been told, so they MAY be CoH myths. However, neither of them is anything complex, so it doesn't hurt to keep them in mind:

1- I've been told that the system doesn't remember which meteors you've clicked from one run to the next. This means that you have to click all four in a single run.
2- I've also been told that you have to click on a meteor while working on the section it occurs in. If you go to the next area and trigger the next set ofobjectives, backtracking to click the missed meteor won't give credit.

As I said, both of the above are untested - I can't confirm if they're true or not. However, if #2 isn't true, it may be a misinterpretation of something that IS true:

At some point in the trial, the scientist stops being able to start the meteor objectives. On the first run I did, we had all clicked both the first and second meteors with no effect before someone looked up exactly what to do. When we backtracked to talk to the Scientist, it still didn't let us click the meteors. We had to do a second run to get the Meteor badge.

On the plus side, you don't have to click each meteor yourself. I recall getting the badge on the way to the last meteor and someone had beat me to it.

The not remembering between each run would make sense - less hassle to make them hidden mission objectives, which would reset with the mission.

I've made DiB attempts and the Longbow individual either doesn't spawn/is non-responsive if you have overzealous teammates who just start killing everything.


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan.

The Arachnos version isn't called scientist. I think it's 'Spy Master'.
