Known Bugs

 * If killed, his body will be unsearchable. This leads to a problem for players who want to acquire the Plasma caster, as he will pick it up and use it almost immediately. One way around this is to pick it up before he does, or kill him before he can pick it up. It may also be purchased or stolen, before finishing Heartache by the Number in Cass' favor.


 * If he is killed with the weapon equipped you may cut off his arm and take it without the need to loot him.
