Community AdminAlright, analysis time.
It looks like Hammond can get the coordinates of Revenant's brain, but they want something from Loba.
Also, all Loba knows about the artifact is that it's a piece of tech. (She might know what the function is, but she got cut off.)
Looks like they are going down the "Hammond hired Loba to find the artifact" route.
@Luxxtenebri just please if you are not interested in the lore or a backstory, just don't post in this thread keep us nerds discussing this, and you go enjoy the gameplay or play something else.
so back to the thread, man this one was so good the moment when they announced Wattson is down and it's a canon thing in the story, although I saw her go down while playing the mission, but didn't accept it to be and actual thing in the story it sent a chill down my spine. and when Caustic pinned Loba against the wall even Wraith was surprised.
@Sir_Named as I said earlier, Loba were hired by Hammond for the artifact which is most likely is in exchange for Revenant "source code" location.
I didn't expect Revenant to join the scene this early in the story. things will change now.
Loba will for sure will lose some of her allies, after Wattson's injury some of them may find it's not worth it, and now they aware that Revenant is into them, no one wants a super robot Assassin into him as outside of the ring they are not safe from death and injury.
some facts:
1, Mirage annoys Wraith, just being himself..
2. don't send the the most direct and impatient guy on a spy mission, that was hilarious.
3. Caustic care deeply for Wattson.
4. Wraith consider Wattson a close friend, and they no she see's them as a family.
5. Octane is good at the apex games and he manage to grab many wins since he joined the games, even the ones who were their before him.
6. Revenant is scary.
@Sir_NamedIt's not so much a time travel rather than otherworldly travel, yes she can travel to a world where things have yet to happen and is "younger" than hers. But events are happening all at once once they happen she cant travel back to relive it unless it's another younger world. But it does raise your very good theory into question is she attached to that particular dimension. If there were a better one where she could prevent the events there that transpired in this one to rescue friends that aren't the same but still similar.
Also do we know she hasnt done it already? Each time she void jumps, does she return to ours or opt for the other and we get a new wraith each time?
Back to the dialogue, I think we can fully dismiss caustic as a traitor if there is indeed one.
Yoko did indeed get some info from octane which she may relay to hammond, unless she values Bangalores autograph more than anything her job can offer. It is a collector's item after perhaps even the only one of kind.
The source code- obviously revenant head, so hammond is using the legends to kill two birds with one stone. They get this artifact delivered to them, and in exchange they get her the revenant source code for loba to destroy. Which will take care of theyr assassin problem and if it goes wrong revenant will be more focused on loba who tried to destroy him rather than immediately going after hammond.
As per how hammond knows about the artifact when we left king's canyon I think they used the void research to send an exploratory mission to retrieve it after learning of it. If you remember in the first hunt there was an attempt to get the artifact before we got there. So they brought us back to get it after the other dimension proved too dangerous. In addition only certain points may be accessible in other worlds (sihng labs A, sihng labs B, artillery A, artillery B ect.) Which is why wraith was needed. Hammond could only access the labs with the void technology there.
And finally revenant now knows now we must wait to see whether or not he wants that power for himself, leading to an unparalleled (or rather paralleled get it?) Fight between the two simulacrum. Or if their is some simbilance of a conscience left inside him and reject the power.
Also I loved the lore given this week I didnt wanna stop reading.
@Koochi-Q thanks for stopping by in this thread, was stating fun facts of the chapter, but you got to admit even if wraith wasn't surprised by what he did but by his speed, respawn surprised us all with this emotional side of caustic.
@Sir_Named @DK9027 @Koochi-Q
Now about wraith and revenant in incident, if you go back to the voidwalker video. Wraith doesn't just travel to the past or future, the multiverses are going on in parallel time line and each can have a different outcome depending on the decisions of the people in it, the ones we know about is,
- Fight or freight dimension were revenant is "worshiped like a god" or so powerful somehow and their is some important artifacts buried there.
- the dimension that the voidWalker wraith travelled to and helped the current wraith we play with where the IMC have still functioning labs and military on world's edge.
- the current dimension where the events is going on.
So any wraith currently in the void can speak to other wraiths if something going around them. If in case maybe they were experiencing the same event or was around the same location while in the void.
About wraith discovering revenant, another wraith must jumped in her void for some reason and saw him and told her. The worst path part must her own opinion on the situation.
@Sir_Named I've got it now! Plain as the nose on my face. You heard it here first 😃
The artifact is indeed a new legend, but with a twist. They are not adding a new legend next season, but modifying a recently nerfed one.
It is a new head and "brain" for Pathfinder. Will they rename him? I'm not sure, but I suspect he will no longer be our much loved happy go lucky robot. Perhaps the best analogy would be his evil twin.

@Sir_Named there you go. @Zeues-1992 agrees with me!
"Worst Path" see 😃
First time post but I do enjoy reading about the lore in here but I have a question about the second quest.
Why can you not play as crypto? But you can play as octane or wraith?
I thought octane was on his “date” and wraith was on coms with him while they were on this mission according to the text after you complete it? As wraith goes in the void to get octane and tells his Watson is down? Would make no sense if they played the mission...
Unless I’m missing something?

@MiketchapmanThat’s the part I didn’t get either. I have no explanation for that. Maybe Respawn disallowed some of the wrong ones to be chosen.
The reason for Crypto tho was likely because he could drone out of Cage and see what Wattson is doing. If she’s actually shooting that ‘sniper’ or if those beams just randomly appear or something
Yeah the crypto thing makes sense maybe they could of just disabled his drone or made it impossible to get out... the wraith and octane thing is disappointing as they disabled Bangalore and revenant for obvious reasons seems like a bit of a plot hole in an otherwise fun story.
Looking forward to the next one!
