ripper mine

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!

@ gower np they are a pain to get hold of as unlike any other wep there is nothing you can buy that is close in stats , most busy servers there is a mad scramble after a reboot to get them

WHERE CAN I BUY THE RIPPER MINES?? NOT THE LAUNCHER BUT THE ACTUAL MINES

Anywhere that your rep is good enough with the faction that runs the base. Every base sells every kind of ammo providing you have the launcher, a high enough rep and the credits to buy it.

think of them more as a bomb than a mine and you will go for the ripper ie as point blank homing doesnt mean much

when i was a newb i thought ripper mines were mines that blow up from oversized amounts of methane

if i look at the stats off the ripper it says homing mine...

the wrecks contain also each 5 mines, so you have 20 mines with 4 launchers after taking them

i'm not that good in using mines, i use them mostly in a group off fighters or against bases... but still, i fly now mostly the dagger, with a good pking outload...

I found usuing mines is extremely dangeros on me and very expensive specialy when players who use alot of CDs makes the mines explode near my ship si I prefere using cheap good driller mines (I put auto drop usualy) and they do the there job well, I do not use swatter mines since they are slower from driller.
