Elemental choice
I'm going to start adding my experience with elements until the pattern emerges:
| Equal resistances | choice |
|---|---|
| yellow pink blue red gray green | green pink gray |
| blue red gray green | blue |
| red green gray pink | pink |
| green yellow gray blue | green yellow gray |
| no resistances | green pink grey |
Blue Chip and other drops
Myself level 30 with 407 HP, Mick gave 829 XP and had 651 HP (434 TNT hit). I got blue chip and candy. --Muhandes 04:46, 28 September 2010 (PDT)
Fought him with 4 characters:
level 70 Naturalist, won the first time, got the gorilla vest and thunderbolt(and chip - it's guaranteed, apparently).
level 50 elementalist, lost many times, got only the chip.
level 50 gadgeteer, lost once, got chip and thunderbolt.
level 50 psion, lost once, got chip and thunderbolt.

- Hey guys, just though I'd add my experience... I was a level 25 Elementalist, lost to him several times, got only the chip. --Prestige 07:16, 29 September 2010 (PDT)
- So far I beat him on my three chars on different lvls, got only chip always. It seems that elemental is hardest, the only class I can't beat him with. I tried pumping spell dmg, other time going with max resistances, now I pile up absorbation gear, maybe this will work --Shikao 07:54, 29 September 2010 (PDT)
- I'm thinking the drops might be related to the amount of adjusting he does. fought him when he only adjusted defense and got NOTHING. not even a blue chip. --Muhandes 07:16, 1 October 2010 (PDT)
- Hmm, now I wish I had copied down the messages when I fought him as a level 11 nat. I know I got only one "Not liking what he senses..." message, but I don't remember what stat it referred to. I also got only a blue chip in that run. --Prestige 07:28, 1 October 2010 (PDT)
Got in on all 4 chars on first runs and so far 1 in 3 second runs. Also noticed that last time I got chip was after seeing "Apparently feeling cocky, the Mick picks up a coin from his desk, flips it once, and drops it into a pocket."--Shikao 09:44, 6 October 2010 (PDT)
- I think those messages are the hints. If people can be specific as to what message they got and what dropped it would be great. So far I can say what I got:
- No message: no drops
- he Mick takes a moment to clear a couple of things: coin + 2 other drops.
- I can also say I got those messages after excessively buffing myself, and getting at least two adjustments.
- --Muhandes 14:34, 6 October 2010 (PDT)
- I wonder what the "coin flipping" message means. In my last run, I lost to him several times, but at the beginning of combat, I sometimes got the coin message and sometimes didn't, even though my buffs and equipment were (as far as I can recall) the same during multiple attempts. --Prestige 15:58, 6 October 2010 (PDT)
- I had only one adjustment when I got coin and all possible Naturalist buffs at that moment + yellow pill. I lost the first time and on second attempt, adjustemnts were exactly the same. --Shikao 22:06, 6 October 2010 (PDT)
- I just the "flip a coin message" which only got me the blue chip. Anecdotal, but so far it works. "flip a coin" = blue chip. "clear a couple of things" = 3 items. --Muhandes 02:06, 7 October 2010 (PDT)
Fought him again, got the 'shield', 'evasive subroutine activated' and 'coin' special messages at the start. He only dropped a blue chip. add-on: level 11 gadgeteer, had LOTS of buffs on(no item restrictions run), and had a significant amount of +dodge from equip. Edivad 04:31, 7 October 2010 (PDT)
Only got the "attach a suitable shield to his exosuit" message, no drop. Level 11 gadgeteer, no +to-hit or +to-dodge, a bit of +ranged damage, and 10 DA. --TeKRunneR 04:43, 7 October 2010 (PDT)
Lvl 11 Elemental 225 Defense(natural -- no buffs) 114 HP 50% acid 5% fire, ice, electrical and he buffed aura and defense plus used pink, grey, and yellow buttons -- no drops jpsteel 8 Oct 2010
- I just managed to get the vest, and indeed with the vest message. My method was to randomly buff myself with over 40 buffs. I don't think I had more than two adjustments. The Mick had 1200 HP compared to my 130 and he hit me for 128 on the first turn, so it was a close call. TNT ftw. --Muhandes 11:42, 10 October 2010 (PDT)
I'm pretty sure the Mick scales with + toughness -- I got the coin message with no buffs and +13 toughness. Also, I noticed he hits harder when you add + toughness -- jpsteel 15 Oct 2010
Ryme confirmed in chat earlier that + toughness is indeed one of the ways (not the only) to get the blue chip to drop -- jpsteel 16 Oct 2010
+1 FT from the silver necklace wasn't enough to trigger the coin. +13 from the Coon's cap was. --NardoLoopa 08:19, 20 October 2010 (PDT)
