Survivor Log

Departure:	Destination:
Outpost Shipping & Transit, Asteroid 94N, Belt Num. 1900, Sargasso System	Great Hope Station, Great Hope, Mars

  Travel ID: 353494D414255434
Passenger Details: [Civilian Class]

Luggage & Equipment: Passenger boarded with a modified CronTech cybernetic enhancement suit. Attached 'projectile launchers' have been welded in places and could not be removed by security personnel, so temporary electrical auto-nullifiers have been attached until landing. Individual also checked 4 large anti-ballistic crates into the loading bay, which showed heavy machinery in the preliminary security x-rays. Crates marked as containing 'de-activated security turrets', 'anti-personnel hardware', and a 'large experimental fission array'. All associated batteries were removed and stored in adjacent bays in automated lockboxes.

[SECURITY RECALL] [Event G1] Major blast occured in loading bay 4A, originating from the individual's largest crate, causing an automated lockdown which had to be manually resolved. Container shifted into bay 4B and placed behind all of the passenger's other loaded cargo. [Event G2] Passenger walked too close to generator room, causing applied electrical auto-nullifiers to suddenly remagnetize. Personnel summoned to remove passenger from door.

Skill Notes

• Bounding Mine and Shockwave Mine have both an arming delay and activation delay. Enemies who can jump, climb, or teleport may be able to trigger the mines, but avoid any damage or knockback.
• Thermal Harpoons animation (temporarily) prevents horizontal movement inputs. While airborne the player retains their horizontal speed, so this can be somewhat offset by jumping immediately before using the ability.
• Turrets only inherit items held at the time of placement, and do not update in real time.
• Only one V.0.2 Prototype Laser Turret can be active at a time. A maximum of two V.0.5 Beta Laser Turrets or Auto Turret can be active at a time. A maximum of three Auto Turret Mk. 2 can be active at a time. Placing additional turrets will cause the oldest active turrets to deactivate without firing or triggering items.
• The self damage of the V.0.2 Prototype Laser Turret and V.0.5 Beta Laser Turrets occurs each time it fires, and appears to be a percentage of maximum health that is not reduced by Tough Times. As such, attack speed doesn't typically increase the total damage output. Provided the turret is untouched while charging, a single Prophet's Cape will provide a short period of immunity to the turret immediately upon firing, allowing for much greater total damage when combined with attack speed items. Hermit's Scarf does work, and provides a chance to ignore each damage instance. With enough stacks of Hermit's Scarf and Prophet's Cape, the turrets can be made to fire nearly indefinitely.
