Babbage, running loose in Boomtown

Overview

Babbage is a Giant Monster for the Clockwork.

Babbage can be found in the northern area of Boomtown and appears in Skyway City during Synapse's Task Force.

According to the City of Heroes Giant Monster Guide, Babbage appears in Boomtown every 4 to 6 hours. This guide was written before Issue 8, which expressly increased the spawn rate. The current rate is unknown, but is definitely greater than the listed rate.

Description

For reasons unknown, the Clockwork King created this giant automaton and loosed it upon Boomtown. Babbage seems chiefly interested in collecting metal scrap for its King, though it also fervently defends its territory from any hero incursions.

Badge

Defeating Babbage awards the Clockstopper Badge.
