Hey all,
Been having lots of problems with the maxis side of the tranzit easter egg. We have gotten to many different points but never completed it. Basically we all get turbines, turn on and off power, get knuckles and go under the tower in the cornfield. The navigation table is built every time so that's not the issue.
When the avogadro spawns, which seems to be difficult to get him to do even when waiting for lightning overhead, he comes towards the tower and we set down our turbines. Now here is where my confusion begins ...
1) When you place down the two turbines underneath the obelisk in the cornfield and you get the maxis qoutes about: A) needing more power and needing power that is portable and possibly alive; do the turbines need to stay down during the death of the Avogadro? Or once you receive the quotes from Maxis can you pick them back up so they do not run out of energy.
2) Do you HAVE to have the EMP grenade to complete this or can you knife the avogadro under the tower to kill him. We have attempted to knife him with the turbines down, completed it and then we never receive the quote from maxis about "Doing well but needing more power."
3) Last night we made a run with an EMP grenade, killed the avogadro with two turbines running under the tower and the EMP destroyed the turbines. We DID get the quotes from maxis about "Doing well" but the turbines are gone, If you can complete this EE with two players do those two players have to run and get fresh turbines to complete it? This is a continuation of question number 1.
4) Do all members of the party have to be under the obelisk while killing the avogadro or can one be in town and one at diner prepared to drop their turbines upon completion of the previous step.
5) Lastly, there have been times where we have heard a quote from Maxis saying "your portable energy device is drained, you must repeat the previous step", when he says this do we need fresh turbines or should we start over on another game. If we can get fresh turbines which step do we need to repeat?
I know this is lengthy but this EE has been a headache and I want to get it done. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
