Question about finding agents in detention centers


Recommended Posts

So, I guess my luck is just bad, but out of my meager 86 hours played, I have only come across Deckard and Shalem 11 in Detention Centers (I play Archive Banks and File Xu).  Other than that, it's always the rich prisoner guy.

 

I'd absolutely love to find Nika, who is actually my favorite character, and deck her out w/ fancy augs and weapons as Banks / Xu rake in cash hand over fist from the very start.  

 

Internationale would even be nice, just for the change (I probably wouldn't make much use of her augment either, but it's a nice unique option to have if PWR-starved).

 

My question is this:

 

If you have a full team of 4 agents, can you still find new ones in Detention Center missions to replace the older ones?

 

I think that both Deckard and Shalem's designs are fantastic, probably the 2 coolest backgrounds for the agents, imho.  HOWEVER, Shalem has no unique augment and basically has only a penalty of 1 less augment slot.  Deckard is only marginally better w/ a lousy +1 AP.

 

I feel bad about hating on these guys, as they really are awesomely designed story-wise, but I just feel that these 2 specifically are the weakest members of any team due to Shalem having 1 less augment slot and Deckard having a very weak late-game bonus.

 

At least the Archive versions have the bonus of full customization when it comes to augment loadouts (except for Archive Xu, for some reason...).

 

Edit:  Suppose I should add that I have continued accepting Detention Center missions w/ my full team of agents and have not seen any new agents appear after filling my stable.  

 

Just wondering if anyone has had different experiences, as I am known to have notoriously bad luck when it comes to most "random" events in games, lol.

Do I need to start over and just never take Deckard / Shalem 11 from Detention Centers if I ever want a chance at using other agents?

 

Does ANYBODY know?  : /

I don't *know* but I'm pretty sure that all detention centers have rich dudes once you have 4 agents.

However all is not lost. Simply leave your least favorite agent behind after a mission (and go get him/her killed, preferably after you've left with the other 3) and detention centers will again start giving you agents.

I can confirm that this works. Even when you are in a detention center and find e.G. Shalem, but you leave him behind, you might find Nika next time. However i am not sure, if you can find agents which were MIA in one of your previous missions.

 

But I think you were just really unlucky so far - Nika can definitely be found in a detention center. (Coming from a guy who also casually stumbled over Abacus 2.0 - but that's another topic :D )

I've found 2 Abacus 2.0 so far, but never Nika or Internationale  : /

 

I killed off Shalem, but only rich dudes so far.  Here's hoping!
