Dragon mage line - "4782" - Species 8472?


Recommended Posts

Hi, I've been playing a new shopper dragon mage recently to add to my collection of toons.

I've noticed that he often says "4782" while fighting certain enemies. What does that mean? It seems awfully close to "Species 8472" from Star Trek: Voyager. Is it a slightly altered reference to the show, or does it mean something else?

That was one of my favorite arcs in the series!!

Could this actually be a thinly veiled reference?

 

:o

@CapnTucker, ah, so he says it every time he kills that many enemies. So it's probably a coincidence that it's so close to being a Voyager reference. If they'd inverted those numbers without intending the reference, it would have been a great case of synchronicity, no?

Yeah, there are a ton of easter eggs. Some of them I don't get; they appear to be in-jokes and references only Europeans would get, or things that don't translate well into English. Still neat to find them though..

Yeah, just a humorous thing for him to say, "victim #4782" or whatever he actually says.. :)
