Ripper mines-where to buy?

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!

Ripper mines-where to buy?

Where can I buy Ripper mines at ? I mean the weapon system , not the ammo.
Also , what is the best homing mine available , and where can it be bought?
Sorry if this is listed elsewhere.
Thanks Very Much ,

The Ripper Mine Launcher can only be salvaged from some of the Outcast wrecks in Omicron Alpha. Look around the Unknown Jump Hole. If you're stuck and need a map, go to www.arbiter.de.

As far as I know, the Ripper is the most powerful homing mine (not to mention the most powerful mine overall) in terms of damage. There are probably more cost-effective alternatives though.

Hope this helps.

Another nice location if you good with the (i know i am)
is the Outcast base in the BAdlands Buffolo Base which sells them
Nifty price too



:though I hate you all inside the outside says otherwise:

Um...no. Firstly, Buffalo Base in the Badlands is a Rogue base; there just happen to be Outcasts there since the Outcasts and Rogues are allied. Secondly, no base, not even Buffalo, sells the Ripper Mine Launcher. What you're thinking of, Masterkamon, is the actual mines. These (and all types of ammunition) are sold at every base in the game. However, the Ripper Mine Launcher itself can only be salvaged.

As for the ammo being sold at a nifty price...well, your character must be rich . As far as I remember, they are quite expensive (being the most powerful mine).

Katoc: No problem, glad I was able to help.

and (even though this is off topic) if you need money quick, go to OB and salvage the wild fire and sell it at the nearby base for $32,000

EASY MONEY IN OUTCAST TERRITORY

hate to nitpick njhockeyboy but in the interests of accuracy
there are 2 bases that dont sell ammo

Post Tue Jun 07, 2005 1:04 pm

Which ones?

I was talking about normal bases (those that aren't storyline only).
