Missions

Agree to form a task force

Briefing

It is well that you are here. I have sensed a disturbance in the mystical fabric of this city. I cannot tell what is causing it, but my protege, Infernal, senses something unusual in a nearby cave network. Go to the caves and tell me what you find.

The winds of fate are blowing, Task Force. Change is in the air.

I believe the code name Task Force Name suits you very well.

Mission Objective(s)

You could sense from Numina's tone that locating the cause of the disturbance quickly is the primary goal of this mission.

  • Investigate sewer network
    • Rescue Fatespinner

You located the source of the mystical disturbance.

Enemies

Badge villain freakshow.png Freakshow

Notable NPCs

Debriefing

It is well that you freed Fatespinner, but I am still sensing the disturbance. It seems that whatever is causing this has something to do with one of Paragon City's defenders.

I must admit, you are a fine group of heroes.

Investigate facility in Crey's Folly and determine what is going on there

Briefing

I have sensed a confluence of heroes and negative energy. It is somewhere in the Folly of Crey. I suppose it is not surprising that something like this would be connected to those defilers.

Search well and swiftly.

Mission Objective(s)

This Facility looks state of the art in terms of technology and security.

  • Search Facility in Crey's Folly
    • Find computer records

You discovered the purpose of the Crey facility.

Enemies

Badge villain crey.png Crey

Icon clue generic.png
Crey computer records
These partially corrupted files indicate that Crey has a division that actively seeks out and captures heroes. The files you have focus on a particular target that has been eluding them for some time. This hero has been designated with the code name Generation Zero.

Debriefing

This is most troubling. We must determine more about this unknown hero. I will call to Manticore, for suggestions on where to seek him.

Strategy

You only have to click the glowie at the end to complete the mission.

Investigate the disappearance of Scout

Briefing

Manticore has suggested that we look into the disappearance of a Hero called Scout, who operated in Paragon City, in the early part of the twentieth century. He believes that Nemesis may have more information and has suggested a place to investigate.

It was a long time ago that Scout vanished, I cannot see the connection, but I have learned to trust Manticore on such matters.

Mission Objective(s)

Although his name has not been spoken often of late, Scout was one of the first heroes Paragon City ever knew.

  • Locate Scout

You have uncovered the fate of Scout.

Enemies

Icon clue generic.png
Scout's final words
I...thank you. I have dreamed of this for many years, and welcome the peace of death. I must ask you one last favor, a final request. You must find Woodsman. He is trapped somewhere in the city, I know it. I was trying to find him when Nemesis captured me and turned me into this monstrosity. Something...old...took him, took him from the woods long ago. you must find him, this is my last request...do...not...fail...

Debriefing

Such cruelty! That poor man has been trapped in that living prison for a lifetime. His passing is a blessing upon him. His dying words ring true in my ears, it is the Woodsman we seek. We must find him, but I cannot seem to pinpoint his location.

Task Force, you are truly a boon to Paragon City.

Strategy

This may seem at first glance like a rescue mission, but it's actually a boss-killing mission. Scout must be defeated for the mission to be completed; he is inside a war hulk.

Talk to Azuria in Atlas Park

Briefing

We must find a way to pinpoint the location of the Woodsman. Go and speak with Azuria at MAGI. I believe she knows of an object that will help us in this quest.

I am sorry that my senses are being confounded, and I fervently hope that Azuria may aid us.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Azuria in Atlas Park

Briefing

There is a mystical object known as the Shard of Kalak. It can be attuned to locate and contain the essence of a specific individual by a powerful mystic, such as Numina. We believe it is currently being held by the Circle of Thorns. Go to the location I will indicate, retrieve the Shard, and then return it to Numina.


Mission Objective(s)

Smoke and sulfur interweave to form a pungent odor.

  • Retrieve the Shard of Kalak

You retrieved the Shard of Kalak!

Enemies

Shard of Kalak
This powerful mystic device is powered by a mystic resonance. Once attuned, it can be used as a location device. How the shard is used determines it's level of effectiveness. The more resonance that is built up within it, the more chance it will perform the desired task.

Debriefing

Thank you. I will attune the Shard so that you may use it to search for Woodsman. It should not take long.

Scan Paragon City using the Shard of Kalak. Combat opponents to power the artifact.

Briefing

The Shard of Kalak is ready. You will need to make your way around the city in a specific pattern in order for it to be used appropriately. Start in Perez Park and then work you way around the city, first widdershins and then deosil. Moving in this counterclockwise and then sunwise pattern will build power within the Shard. The Shard will take a few moments to scan, and legend has it that conflict is required to power it. The more enemies of Paragon City you can defeat while carrying it, the more likely it is to work.


Mission Objective(s)

  • Defeat villains in Perez Park
    • Defeat 10 Circle of Thorns cultists

You defeated 10 Circle of Thorns cultists in Perez Park. Proceed to Atlas Park.

  • Defeat 30 Devouring Earth and 30 Nemesis in Eden

Icon clue generic.png
Woodsman's Signal
The Shard of Kalak resonates, emitting a low sound and a greenish glow. Woodsman must be somewhere in Eden!

Debriefing

Woodsman is somewhere in the Eden then. So close all this time. I am sorry that your travels have been burdensome, but since you have performed the pattern, the Shard should lead you to him and allow you to help him. Tread carefully. Only destiny herself knows what lies before you.

Locations

  • Vahzilok can only be found at night in Faultline. Look in the cracks and on the beaches. Since the Faultline change, you can also find them in the construction sites.
  • Tsoo can be found on the ship in Independence Port, about 560 yards west of the tailor.
  • Rikti can be found in Libertytown
  • Devouring Earth can be found at the entrance in Eden, while Nemesis are further in, about 360 yards west

Find the place where Woodsman is trapped

Briefing

Go back into Eden, and find the place where Woodsman is trapped. The Shard is now attuned to follow his current location.

This is a dark matter, Task Force, be prepared for a great battle.

Mission Objective(s)

This building is slowly being torn apart by the ravages of nature. Someday soon, there will be nothing left of it.

  • Defeat all enemies to find Woodsman

Shard of Kalak
The Shard of Kalak draws energy from the air around you. The entire cavern is a vortex of mystical energy for a few moments. The Shard then glows with vibrant green energy, at the same time brighter and more soothing than before.

Debriefing

The Shard now has his essence. I vow to you this day, that I will find a way to make him corporeal again. Paragon City needs him now, more than ever.

You have done a great thing today. I am glad to call you companions. Long shall the city remember the heroic battles of Task Force Name.


Completing Soul of the Woodsman Task Force from Numina awards the Numina's Compatriot Badge.

Numina and the spirit of the Woodsman were pleased to present you with this medal.


Jurassik-1.jpg

Defeating Jurassik: Strategy

The boss, Jurassik, is in a large room with several floors, and he's surrounded by Devouring Earth. A team needs only to clear the first floor and the basement floor (the one Jurassik is on).

After that, pulling with Taunt is a good idea--the author's team pulled with a blaster snipe and he went down in seconds.

Once the tanker has Jurassik's full attention, the battle is smooth sailing, as long as no defenders or blasters get to close to Jurassik's swinging car: he has a devastating cone attack.
