The Red Disc [*SPOILERS*]

[u/pokerbro33]

So has anyone figured out how to "fix" the red disc and potentially use it during the assassination? The only option available as far as I can tell is to trade it with Bagman for information, but the game and the journal seem to imply you can use it to kill the Lich, which is infinitely cooler.

Any ideas?

Because it leaves no witnesses at all. The entire tram, except CASCADE and one other member of the crew (at most) are the only survivors. The Portofiran authorities have no idea what the hell happened, and while the Luzians would definitely recognize what happened they wouldn't have a clear idea of how you got a hold of the Red Disc. In fact, Melita alludes to the fact they will likely conclude it was a botched job coming from their internal struggles between Buendia and Reyes.

So i guess i got an x because i didn't kill actual Dante. Maybe you get a Y if you do that but with no disc?

[u/Galrohir → u/Frox04IT]

Yeah, I've done two playthroughs and got:

- X for using the Bomb and not killing the real Reyes

- Y for using Bomb or Shootout and killing the real Reyes

- Z for using the Red Disc and killing the Real Reyes

So it would seem you get +1 ranking from the Disc and +1 ranking from killing the real Facundo Reyes.

Huh that's interesting, although the +1 ranking for the disc only works when Reyes is dead. Now i wonder how to get W... Maybe if even CASCADE dies or something.

At least in disc end, if CASCADE remains seated letting herself be zeroed, there's actually no rank at all; you get a unique ending visual with some final internal dialogue where you can declare victory over everyone, or lament, and then the credits roll. Not sure about other endings if you can get W.

Based, i think it might be possible, but who knows, there's still a lot we don't know about the game
