If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

NOMAD GUNS!!!!!

I wanna know how much nomad guns cost and how much dmg they do!!!!!

you cant buy nomads, you need to go find nomad ships in the unknowen sector and kill them. If you are at least lvl 34 (i think thats the lvl) the nomads will drop their weapons after you kill them. Use your tractor to pick them up.

There are 2 types of nomads

Blasters 635-hull 317-shield rate-4.00
Cannons 847-hull 423-shields rate-3.03

i also heard that there are nomad lasers but i haven seen any yet

Does anybody else think that this belongs in the spoiler forum?

In any case, you cannot buy nomad weapons, you can only salvage them from nomad ships. If you sell the ones you salvage you will get approximately 4k credits per weapons. That's not a typo. 4k. Damage: Blaster does approximately 650 hull and 300 shield, refire of 4.00 The cannon does approximately 850 hull and 400 shield but has a refire of 2.00. Hope that helps. If anybody has the exact numbers please feel free to correct me. Cheers.

Are you sure you dont mean 400k instead of 4k?

800 damage per shot = 2400 or 3200 damage per second. All of which takes ZERO energy from what I hear. No, thats not a 4000 credit weapon.

I saw a guy on Elite selling them in the California system for 200,000 right before it went down.

that was not a typo. youll get about 4k for nomad weaps. nomad weaps, even cannons, are not as powerful as some other lvl 10s out there but theyre sweet cuz they use 0 energy. yes, ZERO energy. if someone was selling them for more than 8k then they were trying to scam. which seems dumb since anyone capable of using them would go and get their own.

its like that ebay shizznat. someone offers their dogs poop online, types up a really flowery description that can be easily misinterpreted by the gullible, and tries to swindle a fortune off someone who believes the term "collectors item." oldest gag ever. like those old adds that offered a miniature bust of abraham lincoln for a dollar. you send a dollar, and they send you a penny. greed makes people stupid. thankfully stupidity doesnt make you greedy or else id be a complete backstabbing a** by now. peace.

No, really! The nomad weapons sell for like 1400 to the shop and cost 4k to buy back. In case you accidentally sell one off ..

This cheapo pricing helps when you get your ass almost kicked, as they're dirtcheap to repair compared to the 20k repair costs of other c10 weapons.
