Lots of tests were run last night after the Idris battle was shown on ISC. Utilizing an EMP as currently balanced will likely make the Idris an easy dinner. Does the design team know this? We want a challenge.

TL;DRThe design team knows about the EMP balance concern and expects it to come up, but a crash currently stops internal testing of the Idris content.

Yeah. The design team does know. Basically, we're still going through and trying to play it right now. Right now we have a crash where the QA department will be able to get up to the Idris mission, or the Idris aspect, and then that crashes the game. So we haven't been able to do a lot of internal cycles on it yet. But I can guarantee you that those balance issues are going to come up internally, and then obviously once we release it out to you, it will definitely come up that way.

Yeah, I'm aware of the interest, but we almost had the segment go out yesterday with no footage whatsoever because we kept crashing every time. That's what happens. Things work, and then they don't work, and then they work again, and we were on that downslope up until late Wednesday.

We're still having issues with it. In the meeting I got out of just right before this, we're still having issues with it.
