Overview
Babbage is a Giant Monster for the Clockwork.
Babbage can be found in the northern area of Boomtown and appears in Skyway City during Synapse's Task Force.
According to the City of Heroes Giant Monster Guide, Babbage appears in Boomtown every 4 to 6 hours. This guide was written before Issue 8, which expressly increased the spawn rate. The current rate is unknown, but is definitely greater than the listed rate.
Description
For reasons unknown, the Clockwork King created this giant automaton and loosed it upon Boomtown. Babbage seems chiefly interested in collecting metal scrap for its King, though it also fervently defends its territory from any hero incursions.
Badge
Defeating Babbage awards the Clockstopper Badge.
You have defeated Babbage, one of the greatest works of the Clockwork King.
Name
Babbage is named after Charles Babbage, a mechanical engineer in the late 1800s and early 1900s who developed designs for the first purely mechanical computer.
