<div class="IPBDescription">Onos with 37 redemptions in a row.......</div> This has to be some wierd bug and I DONT know how to isolate it, or how it works BUT I just played a LONG match(3 hours, good players on both teams), and I eventually got an onos(dont like em much).

My onos was the divine incarnation.......

I got redemption 37 times in a row, once I got that onos and got redemption, he got pulled back to the hive EVERY time he got red health for the rest of the match......I dont know why, but this couldnt of been a coincodence, I think this bug needs to be looked into.

    I do believe thats the idea of redemption. The only time I haven't been redempted is when I redempted back and ended up stuck. Then, thinking I would be redempted if a marine killed me, I sat there for 5 minutes waiting for a grenadier to come along. Alas, it was for nothing, as I died.

    I had something similar once.

    We (the Aliens) had 3 hives Online, I evolved into an ONos and selected Redemption (I didn't read the hint at that time... )
    Before long, one Hive was taken out... I knew i couldn't evolve into an Onos soon, but I rushed their base and got saved by Redemtion about 5 times in a Row.

    [edit]
    Well, as far as I understand, Redemtion should NOT work for Onos... thats what the in-game help says...

    aren't behemoths walking things that looks like yetis? they crawl and turn people into stone or ages them. they're ancient, really ancient, primordial beings of great power.... onos aren't behemothes, they're rhinos.

    the word behemoth i think generally means something FRIGGIN HUGE!

    However i think you are correct, there was some myth about a creature called behemoths methinks

    £20 says that a behemoth from Battle Tech could take down both of those behemoths at once

    Thats the idea of Redemption.

    When your health gets low, you get transported back to the Hive.

    It doesn't always work, but the massive amount the Onos has, he has a longer window for it to take effect then some of the lower, weaker classes.

    All part of the game my friend ...

    Its not a bug.
  • smokedbaconsmokedbacon Join Date: 2002-11-03 Member: 6006Members
    But he is right. The ingame text says that redemption does _not_ work with the level 5 behemoth. Maybe the Onos was originally named the behemoth? Onos is the level 5 alien evolution, so it would seem to be correct.

    But as it stands, redemption works for them, and it almost always works because it takes forever to get so low.

    I hate however, people who waste 72 credits on an Onos with a carapace upgrade. Hes going to die regardless....redemption he doesn't last as long in battle, but he can come back in 30 seconds of healing.

    acctually the behemoth comes from the Bible. I forget which book, but i think it is in Job. God says something along the lines as "look at all i have created, look at the large behemoth a creature that is peaceful" err something like that, anyway then it goes on to talk about the Leviathen a bit, you know that other large creature. But they are both from the Bible and no one really knows what exactly it is talking about, people have their theories of course...

    'Behold Behemoth,
    which I made as I made you;
    he eats grass like an ox.
    Behold, his strength is in his loins,
    and his power in the muscles of his belly.
    He makes his tail stiff like a cedar;
    the sinews of his thighs are knit together.
    His bones are tubes of bronze,
    his limbs like bars of iron.
    He is the first of the works of God;
    let him who made him bring near his sword!
    For the mountains yield food for him
    where all the wild beast play.
    Under the lotus plant he lies,
    in the covert of the reeds and in the marsh.
    For his shade the lotus tree covers him
    the willows of the brook surround him.
    Behold, if the river is turbulent he is not frightened;
    he is confident though Jordan rushes against his mough.
    Can one take him with hooks,
    or pierce his nose with a snare?'
    -Job 40:15-24



    'And that day will two monsters be parted, one monster, a female named Leviathan in order to dwell in the abyss of the ocean over the fountains of water; and (the other), a male called Behemoth, which holds his chest in an invisible desert whose name is Dundayin, east of the garden of Eden.' - 1 Enoch 60:7-8
