The Lunatics Have Taken Over the Asylum is a quest added by Xoanon's Unofficial Patches. It takes place in the Asylum of the Daleks. The player will recieve this quest when examining the Dalek Systems computer in Dalek Research Outpost 43 on Skaro if (and only if) they have the latest beta version of Xoanon's patches installed.
Walkthrough[]
- Find the Entrance to the Dalek Asylum: After the player examines the Dalek Systems in Dalek Research Outpost 43, the quest will start and they will be given the access code to The Asylum. The entrance to the Asylum is in the base of the Dalek Statue at the centre of the Skaro map. The player can activate the Dalek computer next to the entrance to unlock the door.
- Explore the Asylum and Discover its Secrets: The Asylum is filled with hostile Daleks, so the player must be cautious not to get killed. The player must travel a couple of rooms into the Asylum until they find their first larger, open room with a door on each wall and a door control in the middle. The doors on the side walls lead to holding cell wings and the door directly in front of the player will be locked. To unlock the door, the player must activate the Dalek systems at the end of both holding cell wings, then use the central door control in the main room to unlock the door. Proceeding further, the player will come across a large, round room with a raised platform at the center. This room contains a communications array to call Dalek High Command. The player must call high command, at which point the Dalek Emperor will appear and talk to the player. If the player obeys the Dalek Emperor and agrees to leave the Asylum, they will be unable to progress further with the quest. To continue, the player must choose the hostile dialog options with the Dalek Emperor, which will make him unlock the door to the next area and send in a squad of Daleks to kill the player.
- Proceed Deeper into the Asylum and Find "The Abomination": The player must continue fighting through the Asylum until they come across another open room with holding cells down either side. The player must again activate the Dalek systems at the end of each holding cell wing to open the door ahead of them. In the next room, the player must activate the central intensive care computer to unlock the door to the next section. It is in this room the player can find the schematic for Bonded Polycarbide Armour on a table in the corner. The player can then follow the rooms through the Asylum until they reach "The Abomination" who will reveal himself as Dalek Kaan and hint at the player's future adventures, before ejecting them from the Asylum and completing the quest.
- Flee the Asylum Without Learning its Secrets: This objective only appears if the player chooses to obey the Dalek Emperor and leave the Asylum. The quest will complete after the player retraces their steps and leaves the Asylum.
Trivia[]
- It is possible for this quest not to start, but for the player to still recieve the code to the Asylum. This is caused by the player having an outdated version of Xoanon's Unofficial Patches (such as the one on the Nexus) installed. If this happens the Dalek Emperor will not open dialog with the player and so the quest will not be able to be completed without cheating.
- The Asylum contains numerous easter eggs and references. See its article for a full list.
