I don't think it's actually them but good for them if it is because they fit into both the "likable" and "didn't have it coming" categories of library victims. hope we don't murder them.

I think I might have finally found something in season 2 worth sharding for in this event. You can't drop Magical Shrimp Hong Lu(especially with that corrosion of all the shrimp panicking) and not get it no matter the cost.

After much procrastination I finally fell down the Limbus rabbit hole. Somehow managed to 1-pull Cinq Don, who is now level 26 and will definitely get uptie-4'd at first opportunity. I just beat Kromer through the absurd means of using Mexican Sinclair and Cinq Don as sin batteries for Hong Lu's base EGO (underleveled base Ryoshu ID also pulled some weight.) Onwards to chicken.

They even went out of their way to censor the NAME of the Boatworks.  And it's *about* five characters long in English text: What are the odds that doesn't say "Molar"?

Yinlock posted:the discard meta is back, and it's pissed To be fair, Sinclair didn't get anything new in Season 1 until the literal last banner. And all Yi Sang's gotten this season is one boss character (unless he gets the other boss character ID at the end of the season). They may just want to load up on Ishmael IDs now before they have to make all the IDs she gets an "important story beat they need to wait to show people". EDIT: Well, anything new in the gacha.

So the return of Molar Officer, Ishmael getting showered with love and IDs and magical shrimp boy Hong Lu. Yeah I can get behind this event. The only real question now is this; to 100% the event which will we end up killing more of - Bongy or Mecha-Crab? Place your bets now!

So 3.5 is Urban Myth and 4.5 is Urban Legend. So 5.5 is Urban Plague? Quite a few more options with that one so it's tough to guess who it could be offhand, aside from the ones already out of the running.

Aren't the only other Urban Legends the Stray Dogs and Axe Gang? Not sure if they are worth the effort. All the major associations, corps and syndicates are getting they own dedicated worlds. Events seem limited to offices and smaller organizations.

I'm hoping they just make it a single battle, like the luxcavations. Dungeons are absolutely not a daily thing and should not be a thing you have to grind. Have a bonus dungeon be tough and give a one time reward or maybe weekly reward and then single battles for the grind.

Once you're looking for it, it's pretty obvious that it's M-O-[??]-R. Furthermore:  The weapons are an almost exact match. Even the loving teeth match - they're only misaligned here because I shrunk the Ruina version a little.

Either half or all of those people are dead. Either they obediently fought to the death as always before they hit the legal time limit on how long you can have multiple clones of the same people, or they refused and ran for their lives, in which case they got Claws sent after them and died. The Head takes its forbidden technologies very seriously.

The 4th Pack is probably on the run anyway, given the Library was supposed to be their last chance to redeem themselves before R Corp sent in the Ravens to cull then all. There is a bit of a wrinkle for the clones killing each other before the Head does it for them, however. If Angela had a bit more of time, she would have sent everyone back to where they were, but she didn't, and they were scattered all over. Hence how Love Town and the Purple Tear ended up destroying the orphanage Vergil ran. The two group of 4th Pack could have ended up on the opposite side of the City.

The Head takes its forbidden technologies very seriously. I think it's possible they just hosed off into the Outskirts and the Head let that go. When the T. Corp technician explains the rules, he says that 2+ of the same person can't exist in the City, which means leaving the City might be viable. The other rule they talk about is that if R. Corp breaks the previous rule, the Head is going to swat down the whole Wing, and from what Dante's Notes says about R. Corp, they're still kicking, so I don't think the Head got involved. On top of that, R. Corp was very clear that they were going to cut off the 4th pack if they hosed up the Library job, and they did, twice. Neither pack can go back to R. Corp, and neither pack can stay in the City while the other lives, which could put them in this almost prisoners dilemma-esque situation of either leaving the city or sticking around and hoping the other pack is no longer living in the City by the deadline, either cause they managed to track down and kill them or they left.
