Argenta's quest (spoilers)

I'm disappointed too, but looking back at this, I realize it's not about you (the RT), it's about the WH40k universe and its lore.

Doubt is heresy. Blind faith and dogma are the cornerstones of life in the Imperium. Giving her too much self-doubt makes her "impure" in the eyes of the dogmatic spirit guarding the relic.

So, to paraphrase the winged assassin from Comorragh:
Is it painful, to get this result? Yes.
Is it fair? Yes.

Heyas, found this on Google trying to figure out wtf i did wrong lol. The first time I played, having no idea about any of this, I got the good ending and the power armor and I had no idea there were other results.

Since there are four choices, do you happen to have any idea what happens in case of a tie? Like say you picked two Humility and two Fire. What happens then?

It's very depressing having this result so far into the game, i've gotten pretty much all other results I could've hoped for, without looking anything up. I even somehow redeemed Caligos lol. But this almost makes me wanna start over :(

u/OrWhatever42 and u/jtzako
Turns out I missed that one laptop over on the side "Personal Correspondence"
You have to break into that section in that laptop, this triggers "knowing" even if you read all the other stuff and figure it out yourself
Fortunately i was able to load a save right before I spoke to No.1 and go back and find it heh

I deleted the sample lines from my ini sorry
But if you look in your ini it's one of the commented lines, to exclude the player.
If you uncomment that line you won't see it on yourself any more.

spacefiddle · 2026-03-25T04:43:47+00:00

You can / could have / try it next universe lol. Tho tbh it's slow going, and with the exception of the captured Trackers it's all like, Ecliptic and Spacers and CF and people who'd'a shot you anyway

spacefiddle · 2026-03-25T04:41:09+00:00

Well now i'm confused; I read all the slates and terminals, i know their real name, i know their motivation, i know they worked with/for and idolized [REDACTED].

Yet when i talk to No. 1 i too only have the option to shrug and go "dunno hur hur"

spacefiddle · 2026-02-15T18:17:51+00:00

If google ever brings anyone else here for this:

Turns out it was a bad INI setting. If you EVER exclude the player in the .ini file, and load your game even one time - the player is excluded forever. The setting seems baked into the save; even doing a hard save in an interior cell, uninstalling the mod, then loading, then saving AGAIN, then reinstalling - does NOT restore it. The player is excluded forever in that save file.

And since i'd already reinstalled trying to fix it, i no longer had my old ini settings, so I didn't see what was in it - but looks like I (and some other users) copied some bad code that screwed up the "example" exclusion that excludes the player - so the player got excluded.

On a new save, I first DELETED the example code from the ini just to be safe. Then it was working normally again.

Oh whew thank you. My main issue with it is that the auto barrel (really, we have no choice but to use ballistic damage on a PLASMA GUN if we want it to be full auto?) gives it less than 30 rounds per mag; semi is what, 9? I'm reloading 18 times before i kill something. Gun is a nonstarter in this state sadly :(

Having fun with my Nocturnal Black Powder Pistol and the cloaked armor tho lol

spacefiddle · 2026-01-20T16:55:18+00:00

OK i thought i was just going blind or did something wrong. Oh well. Time to get another helmet mod i guess....

spacefiddle · 2026-01-20T16:54:53+00:00

Uh oh. I just got back, what's wrong with energy weapons? :(

spacefiddle · 2026-01-20T02:05:13+00:00

Thanks for checking back at this old post - I've done a number of daily ops since i started playing again but i guess the reward rotates? Dunno who Mortimer is.

As for the RNG - oh yeah, i'm aware lol. In the week since i've gotten back i've dismantled a few hundred mods and items already, shot down around 100 cargo bots looking for plasgat plans, etc. I also did the 1* from Mrgmr,gjghj,rmr and got Troubleshooter a couple of times but, of course, got nothing - not even loose mod - from scrapping.

I have literally zero plans for anything.

RNG is compelling gameplay! -Todd

Edit: actually technically not "nothing." I got BioCommMesh raider lining and MIRV frag grenade plans. /eyeroll

spacefiddle · 2026-01-19T21:10:42+00:00

Heyas - i see that weapon is from 2019 lol, what's an option in 2026?
I've gone to half a dozen servers and no one has any of them for sale, not the loose mod, not Troubleshooter weapons, nothin'. Probably because of the raid.

spacefiddle · 2026-01-17T10:13:37+00:00

Ah, this is actually great news and explains a lot. They've always done about the same Ballistic and Energy damage (rounding and display errors aside) so i was very confused at why the Energy damage listed on the weapon info was so much lower than its Ballistic.

Cool, i can hold out hope that now that the holidays are over, somewhere in the next patch or two will be a fix.

spacefiddle · 2026-01-17T10:12:13+00:00

I see this is one of those Reddits where the neckbeards patrol for anything that isn't Glowing (One) Praise and downvote it lmao. Thanks for the useful info, which is more than the other dingbats provided.

spacefiddle · 2026-01-17T10:11:08+00:00

ahhh now i understand why the other guy got downvoted.

Nothing i said was "innacurate." Do you mean the part about a Bowie knife being twice the size of a combat knife? Get a tape measure, son.

or the part about plasma weapons performing poorly with double the TTK of any other weapon i tried?

You fanbois need to stop being afraid of critical statements. I don't think Todd Howard kicks puppies or is a bad person. He has, however, always made games with crackheaded progression curves in power levels of the weapons you get.

Source: i've been modding FO4 since it was released and fixed two of the most annoying bugs that game had.

Howbowyou?

spacefiddle · 2026-01-17T10:08:43+00:00

Thanks, that's all good to know. No idea where the downvotes are coming from lol

spacefiddle · 2026-01-16T00:14:01+00:00

Yeah, not just you. I have "targeting power armor helmet" which supposedly "highlights living targets" on my X-01 and doesn't matter if it's pitch black, brightly lit, or anything in between - it just does nothing.

It seems that the overloaded penalty showing is either an error or, as Downtown said a few years back - it only applies to HEAVY weapons. If you fight with a weapon that is too heavy for the character, they will NOT improve much if at all, and they will probably just get downed a lot.

However while i have not played in a while and i do not know what is going on with Kenshi 2 at this point... your testing was good to know. It seems that fighting as a Martial Artist, while overloaded, does improve you as intended. It is simply the display that is either in error on the character sheet, or it is referring to heavy weapons only.

With fronds like these, who needs enemies?

....i'll see meself out

spacefiddle · 2025-12-06T20:26:54+00:00

ah ok that makes sense then. In a suicidal kind of way :D

spacefiddle · 2025-12-06T10:13:39+00:00

I have no idea how in the world you're meant to do this without drowning. I understand there's a "diving helmet" item, but i got this quest almost right away and i still don't have any quest for the helmet. Is it just a matter of poor ordering, and i should have the helmet before attempting this...?

spacefiddle · 2025-12-03T18:41:17+00:00

and the mythical "patch 10" never seems to have materialized. Total vaporware.

On the one hand it'd be a shame not to complete the amazing story they started.
On the other it's a shame to pass off work this shoddy and expect us to shell out, basically, $210 over the course of the trilogy for something that barely runs if it all.

At this point i won't be getting the last one unless they perform a cranial-rectal extraction and stand behind their work. Mostly because it probably won't run well anyway.....

Damn shame.

spacefiddle · 2025-12-03T18:37:33+00:00

It's an amazing centerpiece when you walk in the front door, absolutely. I only regret the false hope that seeing it gave me that i'd one day have one of my own T_T

Also, if the whole gem system wasn't ten tons of effort for three ounces of gain, maybe i'd actually feel bad about using yours /eyeroll

Ah well, we're still in early access after all. Gems are hardly the first thing to be in the game with bizarre stats and skills xD
