I learned from my time in the official Trepang2 Discord that the CEO Player Outfit is modeled after one of those Lawyer Thugs! He put the CEO skin next to the NPC from the enemy type and noticed the similar suit and gloves when seeing them in the third-person view using the TMod Sandbox.
In any case, the Lazarus Weapon Skin is the last of the four animated ones you can unlock by completing certain missions in the Trepang2 Campaign on Rage Mode. The animation is modeled after the colored effects you see in Concert and Brutalism. While the most flashy, I'm not "that much" of a fan of it once your guns and player model get all bloody.
Even though this mission was done on Hard Difficulty, it felt like a "Moderately Hard, but not Very Hard" at the Penthouse encounter, because of how accurate the Rifle and Shotgun Lawyer Thugs are in general. Good thing there's plenty of Shotgun ammo and recovery items everywhere.
My time spending in Survival Mode made me fully adept with these maps, as the Combat Sim Levels are mostly modeled after the ones you see in these story missions. Horizon HQ really boils down to Concert, Little Lobby, Brutalism, and Penthouse.
I was originally wanting to see if there are another creative way to shoot down Horizon One for the final Anton Brain, but in the end, it's just easier to unload Big Ammo on it with the Minigun. Fun fact about the Penthouse fight: Lawyer Thugs don't infinitely spawn! Once Horizon One shows up, only the regular Horizon Guards appear. So if you want to eliminate all of the Thugs before fighting the helicopter, take your time!
I like replaying Horizon HQ once in a while, because the mission has some of my favorite soundtracks in the game. However, I consider it one of the most brutal to do on Rage Mode, because of how everything one shots you. Best of luck if you do this on Rage Mode, because those Lawyer Thugs are absolute nightmares to fight. I'd say the Penthouse fight is the same as the Jorvik Castle Burning Library Stairs encounter for what will make you rage.
By the way, credit for the recent video thumbnails to those who post over in the Trepang2 Steam Community. I think I'll try learning how to make my own cool screenshots one of these days. Nightie's ones from Steam all look amazing. Just know I credit him along with several others if you ask where I got most of my high-rest Trepang2 screenshots from.
