Mission:Common - Get the Rikti technology away from the Freakshow
Get the Rikti technology away from the Freakshow
Briefing
The Freakshow got wind of a lab in Paragon City that's keeping Rikti technology for study, and they've raided the facility. Alien weapons, armor and medicines, all gone. Fortunately, one of my contacts was brave enough to trace the Freakshow back to their hideout. Someone's got to get that Rikti technology away from the Freakshow. As far as I'm concerned, you're the one for the job. You'll have about 90 minutes to prove me right.
Mission Acceptance
If anyone knows how to abuse high tech weaponry, it's the Freakshow. This could turn into a disaster, and fast. There are two ways to control this situation. First, you could just fight and defeat all the Freakshow in that hideout, and let the city handle the clean-up. Or, you could locate all of the stolen alien technology and take it from the Freaks before they can use it.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I don't see any Rikti technology around here, do you? Hurry, the Freakshow still has it!
Mission Objective(s)
The screams you hear aren't the Freakshow's typical raucous bellows. It sounds like the Freaks are already in a fight for their lives.
- Retrieve Rikti tech from Freaks (Timed, 90 minutes)
- 3 crates to search (or Defeat all Freaks)
You prevented the Freakshow from using the stolen Rikti technology.
Enemies
Rikti devices | |
These small devices would have made perfect implants for the Freakshow. They perform a variety of functions, from estimating a target's defenses to enhancing the wearer's physical strength. |
Rikti medicines | |
These alien medicines are far beyond the best human science has to offer. They can cure grave wounds within minutes, leaving the recipent fully refreshed and ready for battle. |
Debriefing
Good work, Character. I guess the Freaks will have to make do with human science for a while.
Shut down the Freaks' Excelsior plant
Briefing
I've got a good lead on a plant where the Freakshow are manufacturing Excelsior, the drug that makes them so strong. If we can cut off their drug supply, we might be able to curtail their activities for a while. Will you shut down the Freaks' Excelsior plant? I know you can get the job done, but you won't have much time to do it. Maybe 1 hour, tops.
Mission Acceptance
Without Excelsior, the Freaks are just a bunch of angry guys with bad haircuts. The Freaks know that, too, and won't let you get through their numbers. You could take them head on and defeat all the Freaks in there, or you could try concentrating on the excelsior and taking out the Freak behind this lab and his cronies.
Unnecessary Solicitation
That Excelsior plant is still churning out drugs for the Freakshow.
Mission Objective(s)
The harsh smell of chemicals pervades this building.
- Destroy Freaks' Excelsior plant (Timed, 60 minutes)
- 4 Excelsior Crates to find, Excelsior lab
You destroyed the Freakshow's Excelsior lab.
Enemies

Excelsior notes | |
These notes detail the process used to make the drug Excelsior, which is responsible for the Freaks' super strength and resistance to pain. According to the notes, the Freakshow is close to perfecting a new, improved version of Excelsior that will make them even more powerful. |
Debriefing
According to these notes from the Freakshow lab, they're close to perfecting a more powerful version of Excelsior. That can't be good, but at least we'll be prepared. Taking out that lab might even put a dent in their supply for a while and slow down their activity. Good work, Character.
