You must be at least level 32 before they drop.

if ur level is higher they drop more frequently...

the best drops r made when ur with a group hunting inside the unknown after gamma and a few (or all) r lev 38.

i had it 1 time... roam around with another inside the unknown... he had 6 blasters and 4 cannons, and i had about 10 blasters and 11 cannons... just for looking in the edges of the system...

it's only weakness is that u can't get a lot off money that way ... 4k for a nomad weap... i selled some for 25k to another player

but why going for nomad weaps??? with 2 shield killers, 2 high speed flak cannons and 2 cannonball missile launchers and look... firework and for the extra work a sunslayer torp launcher for more fun...

If u c some1 in a defender make fireballs from hunter it can be me

The more your worth, the more of a chance you will get nomad weapons

For cash, I love hunting Outcasts... go on a safari in the Omicron Alpha system, come back with a load of 20 or so $16,000 guns to sell... sweet. And, to top it all off, I help my rep with all of the many people who hate Outcasts.

If you can't read this, then you're probably illiterate and have no idea what I'm saying anyway.

a footnote to the l32 requirement which is 100% correct sp
if you try the mp version of the game it goes up to l34 since the server patch

Levels below 30 can get the weapons too. I havent tried going alone to hit nomads but i've tried going in group of 2. I got the guns to drop out very easily. Out of 2 squadrons, at least 2-3 guns were dropped. but unfortunately none dropped lasers.

Lasers are rumored to be the best are they? hitting 1000+ damage on shields and hull. woah!. btw can someone post the stats for codename guns? thanks

they dont drop lasers ever

@Tixor

Lasers are only available if you mod. Check out the download archive for some very
good spreadsheets on weapon stats. Also DL Lancerthing 1.07

Even at max level 38. I find they drop 1 gun to 5 kills. sp.
