Robot fight in ECLSS

[warmblood1]

Query - Is this option only open to you dependent on faction choice? I can't get past the magnetic door seal so have assumed the above applies.

Buy an overclock from Eli, he will offer you the quest

I bought a overclock and he didnt offer me anything else.

After you buy the overclock, he asks you if you feel capable of fighting a combat robot. One of the possible responses is "No, I'm not much of a fighter." I think that if you are spam-clicking through the dialogue and accidentally pick that option, it shuts you out of the quest.

Not really, you can then ask about it later.

Huh, I missed that possibility when I accidentally rejected the fight in an earlier build; guess that got fixed.

Are turrets and robots affected by Smoke Grenades? This battle seems very much undoable for my hybrid character/party, maybe a computer check (like the turret encounter in the factory) that would even the odds somehow...

What´s the loot you get out of this encounter?

Mostly quest stuff.
Heavy gun for the your robot possibly also for yourself if you get the upgraded exoskeleton impant.

Yes they are effected by smoke grenades but they have innate thermal vision which counteracts smoke, turrets now have 50 Thermal Vision, I don't know offhand what the thermal vision value is for the robot, you could test it by using mid grade smoke grenades to see if it changes its to-hit-chance.

Thanks! Just completed the fight right now and checked it out. Faythe and Evans got killed though, and I just don't see how to finish this fight without losses, especially Faythe since as soon as the energy vest runs out she's dead next turn.

Depends on the smoke grenade you use, turrets have 50 thermal vision (so you need a mid-high grade to affect them) and the robot 80 (high grade only).

An old earth armor and an energy shotgun, plus quest stuff.

Pulse grenades and bullseyes with the energy rifle and the energy pistol from the crypt or Menzel's locker are very effective against it.

Ugh! I figured it. You have to select the "Leave" option right after you buy an overclock. This one.

If you select "Let's do another" and then "Maybe later" you don't have that dialogue.

Effectively locks you out of encounter if you already spent all your money. Very frustrating, pls fix it!
