OP-1 looks at Arratoi and nods it's head in the direction of the last statue with one eye brow raised almost if asking "this one?"
Delaying till after Arratoi in case get 'em goes up
After getting conformation OP-1 uses his body to hide the movement of his pistol and pulls the trigger when the statue least expects it
Trick shot using stealth:1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 17 + 1 = 21 (dc 20+target's CR)
To hit EAC (vs flatfooted if trick shot worked):1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24 Elec damage if hit:1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3 Extra trick shot damage:1d8 ⇒ 3 I'll make it flatfooted if trick attack worked
Ideally we shuffle initiative within the party around a bit with advanced communication and tactics skills so it's Arratoi first if he want's to put get'em on it, then M'shak, then me so one of us can hopefully make it flatfooted ..then everyone else

Arratoi moves a bit closer to get a clear shot at the remaining target while taking cover behind the counter and fires of a shot yelling, "Get that dim-witted prattling toe-biting bug-chewing kobold-spawn!!"
Working as a group you disable the last of the constructs, before it can cause any more harm
M'shak is also able to easily bypass the three firewalls and turn up the temperature in the data core chamber.
Everyone can view.
Firewall 1:
The data core chamber contains 4 traps and points out their locations. I'll mark them and point them out when you get there. The files also contain a scanned copy of the original building plan with a series of notes describing how a second smaller room was supposed to be the data core chamber, but "the board of directors found the space insufficient for the desired level of security".
Firewall 2:
This data describes how the creatures you just fought (data guardians) were adopted from ancient lore guardians. Information is provided on the magical crafting process and also their targeting functions, which indicate the ability to identify members of the Dataphiles faction on sight.
Firewall 3:
This is a small data file containing the disarm code for the data core chamber traps, which will allow you to disable each trap as a move action without a skill check.

"Well done! The trap info will come in handy. We KNEW there would be traps everywhere and this will make things a bit easier.
"I wonder what they use that second smaller room for now... Probably more of these data guardians who will spring to life I bet!!"
Arratoi will also be sure to record a copy of the magical crafting process. "The Society will definitely need this info to counteract the Dataphile identification ability. Looks like a major security risk... Who are these people?!?"
[ooc]I've lined up our tokens at the next door for when we're ready to move on.
Before you move on, this room looks like a good place for a 10 minute rest, if anyone needs one.
Opening the door out of the room, you find a 10 ft. wide, 10 ft. high hallway with calm grey and blue steel panels on the walls that are clean enough to reflect your images. Just as you are about to step into the hallway, M'shak halts you and notes that there are some strange nozzles discretely hidden in the ceiling. It probably would be a good idea to do something about them. Engineering to disable the trap.

Seeing everyone else relax and sit down for a bit OP-1 join in as to not feel left out
I'm down a bit of SP but like Ella I could have pressed on, but since we are taking the 10 minutes anyway I'll go back to full stamina as well
As you move through the hallway, the door slams shut behind you and locks. The hallway warms pleasantly, but with the nozzles successfully plugged, you continue safely through and are not incinerated. Reaching the far end, you find another door that unlocks when you arrive.
The door opens to an irregularly shaped room appears to lack a clearly defined purpose. A large stone plinth occupies the center, while disconnected power cables are strewn on the floor to the west. A massive pair of white painted steel doors occupy the west wall, closed and mounted on a track that feeds into the north and south walls.This room matches the description of the room originally planned to be the data core chamber found behind the firewall.
You are free to move in and line up at the door to the north for the next chamber. I'll get that uploaded tonight, and we can move to the final area.
You see a secret door that leads from the room that leads to an alternate corridor back the way you came, without heading through the office or incineration tunnel.
The other doors off of the room are 20 ft. wide metal blast doors the split down the middle. They are locked by an obvious key card mechanism, that can be bypassed with a Computers or Engineering check.
DC 24:
Opening the blast doors you see a ten-foot wide alcove, beyond which is an immense, roughly octagonal room approximately a hundred feet wide. The chamber is lit throughout from regularly spaced lighting panels set in the ceiling. The room is spotless and strangely empty. The walls and ceilings are starkly white, while the floor is a mix of metal and cobalt blue. At the center of the room is a huge column of computer equipment that runs to the ceiling and rests on a twenty-foot-wide black square base. A soft, pervading hum drones in the background.
The lights are on, and there is a lighting lighting control on the northern alcove wall.
The pyramid-like structures are not yet visible, but from the information you learned earlier, you suspect they are the locations of the traps and will appear when you step out of the alcove.

"We can all move to disable these traps nearly simultaneously. It will take us a second to get into place. Or we can just disable them as quickly as possible."
Ella prepares to move in and disable one of the traps.
As M'shak enters, panels in the floor slide open revealing 4 ft. tall gleaming metallic implements that resemble chess pawns. She doesn't see anything else, but we'll move to initiative.
Bold are up.

As M'Shak is next to one of the "tower" she's ready to disables it.
ready action: when one of the pyramid tower appears, M'shak will disable it
With a simple input of the code, you disable the trap nearest you.
To clarify, when you walked in all 4 traps appeared. You also need to be adjacent to a trap to disarm it. You can choose to use your standard action for something else.
M'shak disables one of the devices, while Sarangari and Ella move into the room. Just before Ella can type in the code to disable the trap, electricity arcs from the metal rod into her.
Ella, please make a Fort save as the electricity courses through you.

Assuming the entire door is open - I think I can run in a straight line to end up adjacent next to one of the pillars. Straight is a bit odd with a map filled with squares so if you don't agree I'll double move instead to the square south of Steelscales
OP-1 puts it's leg pistons to use and runs straight across the area

Steelscales moves around the contraption to see where that shot came from. Once he sees the robot he moves up next to it to try and keep the big sucker's attention on him. He shouts, "Get those traps, I'll distract this guy!" Then he punches at the robot.
Ella disables another trap, while the remaining functional trap arcs electricity into OP-1. OP-1, please make a Fort save as the electricity courses through you.
