Forum:Luckiest Firelance Find Ever?

I've been playing a long time and had never experienced the firelance event. I was going to just play and play until it finally happened, but I decided that I wanted the damn thing and would try to force it. I went to Chaste Dairy Farm and saved. I walked over to the road for my first attempt and it happened. ON THE FIRST TRY!!!! I was prepared to make hundreds of attempts! I have a luck of 10 and I have Charon wearing the lucky shades and Three Dog's Headwrap, so maybe we're just the luckiest combo the wastes have ever seen... LVTDUDE 07:05, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

So, I found the firelance after a couple minutes of searching. It landed about 15 feet away from the red rocket. I started looking for the power cells, found a few and then happened upon a deathclaw. I equipped the firelance and took aim. He charged at me and then I experienced the super-high-flying-deathclaw glitch. Before he flew completely out of sight I managed to hit him with one shot. He burst into flames and flew through the sky like a roman candle until he disappeared. He hasn't landed yet. What a strange set of events! LVTDUDE 07:16, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

He still hasn't landed, but that hasn't stopped Charon from looking for a fight. He's making his usual noises and standing there with his shotgun aimed straight up in the air, just waiting for him to fall. It kind of reminds of my cat when he sees a spider on the ceiling. Friggin' hilarious! LVTDUDE 07:20, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

And, to top it off, Charon finally gave up on him falling from the sky and uttered words I've never heard from him. They also don't appear on his character page. He said, "Stand down." Has anyone else ever heard him say that? LVTDUDE 07:24, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

It *is* mentioned on the character page that he says 'Stand Down'....It also mentions that at times while following he 'mutters incoherently', but upon listening closer, I found he is cursing under his breath ala Yosemite Sam or Fred Flintstone....

I wonder who added that to his page? LVTDUDE 15:00, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
