Helios? kinda defeats the purpose

[Castorice]

Well i was going to get the helios. At fist I was like yeah, this is worth it! not having to manual scan enemys and repetively buy Scaners, this is great! The glave attack sounds okay.
However when i saw the revew for this sent [By mogamu he is great ;)] The words struck me, "Now, this sentinel does use codex scanners" I was like well. I'll just hold on to my 75 plat :L
I can't tell if thats a glitch or intended, so more insight would help :D

The only problem is that it'll use scanners on stuff it's already scanned, wasting dozens of extra scanners each mission. You'll run out of scanners sooner than you expected.

Except they're cheap. So you'll hardly ever run out of scanners except for the one mission.
Also it only scans "stuff" that hasn't already been scanned, assuming the scan for that individual codex is not completed.

It really can't scan the same enemies because the coding prevents it. Of course someone will claim it did/does. But I have not seen it as I use that thing a lot.

It was however scanning enemies that were already completed in your codex. I think that has been worked out.

My Helios loved to scan those containers in Void so much that I got like 100 scans on them. Before it finally figured out I had enough of them.

Because I'd buy a 100 or 200 of the scanners and then do my mission. It didn't take long for Helios to run them dry even though I had scanned most enemies.

It might be fixed now but it was an issue before.

It does use scanners. The thing that makes it great is that you don't have to scan yourself, and making yourself vulnerable to be downed.

Well, i heard that it repeaditly scans the same enemys, or is that fixed?

I've not seen it continue to scan enemies once their codex entry is full - but mine does *love* to keep scanning trash containers.

And don't *buy* it, get ahold of somebody with a dojo and get the BP from their lab.

Doesn't change the fact that after a little over one month OP probably decided what he wanted to do about getting Helios or not. This is a necro post because it's not relevant anymore, most likely, he doesn't have any intent of necroing or starting an argument most likely.

There is no such thing as necroing. If someone finds the information relevant, then it is relevant even if it is 2000 years old. You can either ignore the post or hit the unsubscribe button.

Necroing isn't against the rules, but it isn't wanted by most people. This thread was over a month old and it was supposed to be over, as most surely the OP has made his decision about Helios, which was what this thread was mainly about from the looks of it, making any further discussion on this pointless.

Against the rules or not, Necroing 99% of the time is unwanted on forums. That's the point here. If there is no such thing as "Necroing" then the word itself wouldn't exist, so you're wrong on that.

ok, here's a reasonably fair honest question:

What was the intent to continue an old conversation by only mentioning how many scanners you buy, what exactly did it contribute to the topic? That scanners are cheap? Several posts established that already.

Can you really buy by the 1000?

Yes. The button when you purchase that raises the quantity by 1 you can click directly on it and enter an amount. They are sold by 25 at a time so...
25 x 40 = 1000 which I think was only 20k creds. After awhile the creds just pile up.
