I'm curious.. have the Leviathan Rift Emitter dropping ships (Octafari) come and gone already? I finished the Octafari missions as they came out and never once saw the NPC's that were supposed to drop these artifacts. Am I just SOL? or did I miss something?

You're SOL.

Finishing the mission means these Leviathans will never reappear again.

once again, wiki is your friend... http://galaxylegion.com/wiki/index.php/ ... ed_Retreat

the Leviathans are only visible while the Embattled Retreat mission is visible (that's the one immediately after the one with the Kalvium asteroids)... i lucked out because I did the kalvium asteroid mission when it was a timed mission, so Embattled Retreat is visible for me even though I can't touch it right now... so I've had more than enough Leviathans on my npc tab (even though they don't show up very often)

I guess once you don't gottem.. thats it, you don't gottem! Well that kind of licks pickle....

I wonder if there is any chance Dan will enable them to appear on peoples BT's until they are limited out in drops.

i guess you could always contact him directly (via the link at the bottom of the game)... and explain that you didn't realize they were a temp npc that was around only during a certain mission... and ask him if he could take one mission attempt off of the Embattled Retreat for ya so it would appear on your list again, so you can get the leviathans

Thanks. I've done that. Hoping with fingers and toes crossed that Dan will be sympathetic enough.
