    Default Faction Epics

    Does each faction have a prize at the end of their epic?

    Cause it seems that according to www.croncom.com

    not every faction has prizes to win.

    If so, which factions give prizes.

    Biotech = moveon
    Protopharm = resistor
    Next = reveler and speed cycle
    TT = pistol, rifle or cannon (do you get a cannon?)
    CM = speed cannon
    DRE = storage cell

    You cant get a DoY raygun pistol from anti city factions?

    how good is the helmet?

    Thanks.

    yes TT you get a choice of pistol, rifle or cannon

    no there isnt a DoY pistol and the cypher helmet is a waste of time. because its not as good as the duranit 3 (?) or Duranium 3(?) cant remember which helmet which requires the same STR

    and you forgot the CA power armor

    The cypherhelmet is TL 77 & 25,27,25 resists.

    I usually give them away.

    The DoY rifle gets random slots, but always has all stats @ 120.

    The CityAdmin faction epic cannot be done at this time, due to the missing NPC for mission one in the NCPD.
    (So I have a character with nothing to do until *hopefully* next patch....)

    As for rewards, I still can't get an *official* answer to whether or not having the *E beside a faction in your F6 will actually give you the new epic item when they're released (I've been told yes by some fairly informed people) or not (I've also been told no by some fairly informed people).
    Officially though... no word.
    Up to you if you feel it's worth the risk.

    I do know that the temporary epics that are done by runners will be whipped from their memories and they will have to do the epics again to get the new epic items for that faction.

    You will still have your Helmet and Rifle.

    i'm sure it was in the patchnotes that the Anti-CA epics would be reset when DoY was introduced so enabling the players to re-do the epics and get their proper reward.

    yes axeman/zanathos i read the same thing. im too lazy to find the notes exactly but all the bd/crahn/tg/fa etc etc guys will have to redo their epics as they will have changed by that point.

    Yes the cypher helmet is crap.

    No i dont know if you lose your master title or not, but certainly you will need to redo the epic so i guess you must do. Poor old eric will be pissed then if he has to redo 5 epics.......
    Today i am mostly actually glad that hacknet week has started.

    I've been doing the rounds on the epics, and have 7 done already... 4 of those were "DoY" epics.

    I did them on the basis that I would be "given" the new items automatically when they were added, as I was told by a few people who disagree with what you've posted here - one person told me he'd asked a GM...
    As I said, there's people saying for both circumstances. "Official Word *firsthand" does not exist as near as I can find.
    I'd be pleased to know either way, even if it means redoing some later -- at least I'd know either way.
