Hello! Since 2005, Infamy Unlimited has relied on its valued employees to market its unique brand of evil throughout the globe. And if you’re watching this instructional video, you’re one of the many highly skilled earners in the IU family!
In this video, you’ll be learning about the state-of-the-art laboratory found in Infamy Central, our secret headquarters. Here, you’ll find an array of dazzling machinery designed to help IU’s personnel reach their full potential!
Say, what’s this?
Uh oh! Looks like our friend, Curious Carl, is having a problem. Carl’s confused by the sheer variety of equipment in the IU lab. With so many high-tech gadgets at his command, how’s a fella to remember how everything works?
Well, relax, Carl! It’s easier than you think. Let’s check out each piece of equipment individually. You’ll find that you’ll become a ”Lab Leader” in no time!
Inspiration Collector: This eye-catching gizmo is used for storing Inspirations, and any member can deposit or withdraw at any time. (Max capacity 100.) Open the window and click on any stored Inspiration to take it. To store an Inspiration, just drag and drop from your own pool into the window. Help yourself at any time — the machine’s usually full!
To make the best use of storage space, please try to store only Level 3 Inspirations in the machine. They’re the Inspirations most worth saving!
The other lab machines are all related to Salvage. In a previous training video, you learned what Salvage is, and you also learned that you can combine it to create Component Salvage, which is then assembled into useful items. Let’s take a look at the amazing equipment at your fingertips!
Salvage Rack: This is a storage space for Salvage, and it’s used in exactly the same way the Inspiration Collector is used to store and dispense Inspirations. (Max capacity 999.) And, like the Inspiration Collector, the goodies in the Salvage Rack are freely available to every member. The Grinning Ghoul likes to be efficient and combine his Salvage into components before he stores it (most things that use Salvage use components), but it isn’t necessary since the Salvage Rack is roomy and has a big capacity.
Radiation Emulator: Here, you can spend Salvage components to imbue yourself with a wide variety of temporary effects. For example, you can buy a Smashing Resistance buff with 2 Tech Material and 2 Tech Power. Just click the “Empowerment Buff” tab to see what’s available! Most of the buffs offered are defensive (Fire Resistance, Psionic Resistance, etc.) or increase your movement speed, and there’s also one for temporary invisibility. These temporary buffs last about 15 minutes — the timer starts as soon as you purchase the buff, but that’s enough time to get you through that Mayhem mission or Elite Boss showdown!
You can also use the Radiation Emulator to combine your Salvage into components. With the Salvage Rack in arm’s reach, this is truly your one-stop buff shop! You can craft all 6 types of Tech components on this machine.
Basic Worktable: This is used to craft some types of base equipment out of Salvage components. You can also use the table to make the two basic types of Tech components (Tech Material and Tech Power). Since there isn’t a regular demand for base equipment, and since the Radiation Emulator offers more flexibility for crafting components, the Basic Worktable doesn’t have much to offer ordinary IU members.
Advanced Worktable: This table works like the Basic version, but it makes slightly more advanced equipment and rarer components (Tech Hardware and Tech Software). Again, the Radiation Emulator is a better machine for everyday Salvage uses.
So there you have it! Using laboratory equipment is both fun and easy. Whether you’re on the front lines in Siren’s Call or battling the Guardsmen, the Infamy Central lab can help YOU do your job better. And that means an eviler, more dangerous world for everyone!
Right, Curious Carl?
Looks like he’s got the right idea! If Carl can become a “Lab Leader”, you can too! Good luck, and remember — buy war bonds!
