? Lvl 10 Derelicts (Omicron Alpha)

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!

? Lvl 10 Derelicts (Omicron Alpha)

Once you've snagged a lvl-10 weapon from a Derelict, does the Derelict regenerate the weapon along with it's hull health? In other words, is it possible for a player to sit at one derelict that has produced a pair or Cerebus, wait for it to regenerate, and have a nice new pair?

Or, does the game only allow a player to coax the weapons to drop once, yet other players still can have their turn (all MP of course)..

Or, once the weapon has been retrieved, no more can be procured by ANYONE on that server?

In Omicron Alpha, I got snuck up on by a wave of early Nomads in the middle of a trade, and lost 2 rippers, 2 cerebus, 1 guardian (overactive trigger got the other) and a handful of loaned Nomad weapons.. very disheartening indeed.

Would appreciate any answer, so I don't waste my time knocking on every Derelict Outcast in endless loops trying to find the right ones again. On that subject, does anyone have a general idea of which derelicts around the hole have the weapons? like, the north side of the jumphole? south? (map relative). Kinda frustrating trying to keep up with where you've been when Nomads are swarming and the Derelict hull's are regenerating..

There's a lot of debate about regenerating dirlects, but I've found each dirlect to be one-time-only things for individual players. When (or if) the server is shut down and restarted, the dirlects regenerate, but can only be looted by players who have not already done so. You can make new characters and loot the dirlects regardless of what you've already pillaged, though.

"If I wanted your damned opinion, I'da beaten it out of you."

in SP the weapons only appear once
in MP they reappear at the wrecks each time the server reboots
