S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Oblivion Lost (by Kanyhalos)

[Acleacius]

Not sure what to do here, first time to X18 with OL and boss is a problem, not sure how to ask this as it could be a spoiler, so.....

Spoiler:

I tried looking around the room for some switch or lever to end this after using at least 100 grenades with about 80% accuracy, 1000 bullets with at least 60% accuracy and knife as melee 90% accuracy. We are just basically standing there him in his corner and me on the stairs blasting each other for what seems like at least 15 mins.

The only thing I didn't do was pick up the documents, I reasoned that it was bad enough trying to take this guy much less if this would start spawning military troops as well, so I waited. I just feel like I could have spent another 15 minutes unloading into him, so I just gave up.

I am guessing this can't be normal, so am I doing something wrong or is there some problem I need to check?

Oh, just in general why do we still get attacked in vanilla X18 even after we have killed the boss? You know those cans and boxs are still thrown at us as we exit X18, iirc?

Thanks for any tips.

did you read borovs notes?

Spoiler:

just drop a burner anomaly in the corner by the ramp.....then hide until he runs over there,

^ that works~ XD

a good idea is using a wrenched + teardrop and drop them in pretty much the same spot. instakill.

[El_Venezolano]

Insta-burer-a-la-flambee that is... XD

No I didn't read any notes, actually didn't know I needed too and I have never even used an Artifact except to wear on the belt, sell or give as a quest item.

Thanks for the tips.

Edit: Damn I am glad I kept a save before the fight that was insanely expensive.

[dexxtaa]

I had a problem with the AI, not sure if it's the way Vanilla works or OL. During Cordon start of the game so many Bandits kept spawning they finally killed the Military at the bridge. They were all dead when I got there, I never fired a shot and now that I was back from X18 they started firing at me when I get near. So either the Vanilla game auto assumes if the Military at the bridge dies it was the Players fault resulting in you being an auto enemy or there is something changed (?) in OL?

Thanks for any tips.

Where the hell did you find that lol

Vanilla files check if the player was the killer, I've been recently working on them. But maybe when the first squad is dead, the reinforcements cannot be bribed? So that they are hostile like military is usually to the player. Don't know if they use the same logics as the first squad.
