Data Taps, Spawns and Coding - Latest Content Explained

Me and someone I picked up at Mara C went farming together and came across several spawns.  Loads of Data Simulacrums, some Tactical Security spawns, and some gang spawns.  Nothing major.  Best I got was more Experience Code Amplifiers which got me to max XP for lvl 50. 

I've decided that I'll stop looking for the Quicksilver gloves and maybe they'll come to me. 

(but if anyone has any exact details as to what district you were in, what tool you were using, what clothes you were wearing when you got the gloves, that would be great.  )

Can anyone explain exactly what the Data Scrambler 0.4 does?

I only just started using that today, but due to other events ingame, only used it for a short while. Need to confirm, but obviously most likely a faster spawn rate, but new spawns with it? Need to check.

Excellent guide   

I just started hunting tonight and didn't really get anything amazing.  Some of those spawns sound insane though, especially the giant corrupted.  Even if I doubt I'll ever get whatever it is they and the other uber spawns drop, I'd love to know anyway.

• Lvl 100 Agent = Unknown

The lvl 100 Agent is a wildcard loot, it seems. I got Info, Red Frags, and Quicksilver from my lvl 100 agent.

Wasteland corruptor: Nothing (Rarebit said so )

Not even a Corruptor Code? >_<

Thanks, I'll update the rest soon, also if no one has mentioned it yet, the tapping range on the scrambler 0.4 is insane!

Found two moreinterseting things tonight.

1.I had a group of at least 5 exiles( succubus,nightmares,vampires,etc ) spawn on me noding downtown ALL lvl 60.I tried to ss but i was solo and died too fast.

2. Had one very large data cluster that had one of every patch in the game in it.

Great patch so far most fun I've had in mxo in a long time!

1. Yea, thats the Tengu/Gargoyle spawn set.

2. That will have been something left by people using the Scrambler 0.4, that has a lower chance of turning a data node into a cluster, but when it does you are able to loot all 8 frags of whichever type is inside it.

I can't get anything to spawn in Richland. I tried for like 2 hours today.

Another thing you might want to add, Aquatium:

I had two encounters with the ninjas from PB2, and both times I found a "Portable Signal Booster" in the Data Cluster. The Cluster-reward seems to be different for different PB spawns.

Is it me or are the PB spawns the only ones that don't go away if you hyperjump?

Also I'm seeing lvl 255 agents spawn quite often then drop dead,giving me anywhere from 10-200k info

Hmm, well, I think I must agree with both statements. I tried desperately to get lost of some Ninjas - because i was too lazy to fight them just for another singal booster - but they didn't want to go away, just went back to the node then. And yea, the 255s dropping dead is probably a bug; they were meant to spawn on Dataminers in before, and now that there are new spawns, they are no longer needed, I guess because Drac couldn't get rid of them, he just provided them with a "selfdestruction" script.

A haven't had any luck getting ANY spawns at all on my two characters (lvls 47 and 50).  They both have:

- All Data Miner abilites levelled up completely

- Advanced Data Node Locator Goggles

- Data Extractor 3.0

....Plus I've been doing them in high-level areas on DT.  What's the problem?  Occasionally (about 1 in 5 times) I'll get a Data Cluster but never any spawns.  Why no spaws?  I'm very confused here.....

Have you been doing it solo or part of a team?.  When I was doing to solo it took nearly two hours to get a spawn, however when I teamed up the spawns were more frequent.
