It is unlikely that Anna used a Wave Force twice on a single target. Especially as the requirement to use it require Anna to use up all of her impeller and blow up half an arm. If Sekhmet survived that hit, the outcome would be either that it immediately fucked off with Anna unable to stop it or it killed Anna.
Not if the first shot deleted Sekhmet's higgs systems, but failed to finish the job well enough.
If it's already damaged to the point that it can't disengage and Anna can fight it off in equal standing without any of her impeller techs until she regenerate enough of her impeller to do another one, she wouldn't need a second shot.
Actually, only 5 of her HPPs were wrecked. She still had the other five and the ability to use her frames material to literally eat antagonists.
No, Wave Force is taxing on her Impeller, not her mind, and Impeller is kind of important to everything Valk related. The headache she got was from Impeller Overuse because she kept using it up in its entirety again and again for a whole afternoon :Ü™
Actually, no. All of her HPPs were wrecked and she could only build 5 new ones using the scrap of the old 10 :Ü™
50% of her main weapons and all of her utilities gone is most of her arsenal gone. And without her impeller, she won't be eating faster than she get shot at.
To clarify. I think most of her HPPs were wrecked but she was able to fix up to five by cannibalising parts from ones that would be beyond repairable.
The only real issue with this idea is the following:
Which implies there are bodies to relocate and intact graves to pull names from which very likely wouldn't exist had the town been Wave Forced.
Anna kinda have...uh, memory problems regarding the town.
She might be selectively forgetting some aspects.
She saw and read the names on the memorial. A bit hard to hallucinate that.
I think she wanted to fly back to her town to the north east and forgot that the simulations mission objective was to the south east.
Yes, I said selectively forgetting things.
I don't think the line would say "why am I going north-east" if that was the case. And the line before and after the bit I quoted was Anna noting that the objective was towards south-east.
Anna ran off and hide to fix herself after beating Sekhmet before going for Saskatoon. Sekhmet's honor guard has also at least gotten some damage after Anna ate some of them before they got told to fuck off.
Just wanted to point out that while yes it did come back quickly by that point Anna has three fusion reactors capable of peaking at 20TW. She did not have that kind of level of power generation to fuel Impeller regeneration before. In fact she'd have been even more disadvantaged then normal since she used her Onium Batteries as reactive armor so her reserves would have been completed depleted.
Once you enter purgatory you can never leave.

Because Avalanche has created a deep and complicated world with highly compelling characters. Even after seven complete re-reads I am still discovering new things I hadn't realized or put together before. So there is frequently new ideas to discuss which is further augmented by the occasional WoG post by Avalanche adding/expanding upon the updates themselves.
I think she started flying home on an automatic reflex.
