Where to get Eagle?

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!

Where to get Eagle?

the title says it all. i've looked around the site. can't find any info on locations (maybe i didn't look in the right places)

i'm using a valkerie now. fun ship i have to say. armor isn't great, but its got some really good turning capability. but anyway i think i'd like to move onto an eagle, seeing as how its one of the best ships in the game. the titan seems far to slow at turning and i've heard of its wings falling off and stuff. the sabre seems to slow also. and i hear the eagle executes some fairly nice turns (if anyone knows how it is compared to a valkerie, please tell me)

also, if anyone can make an arguement why the eagle isn't a good choice, i'd like to hear it so i can make a decision. thanks in advance.

Well the eagle is a great ship. You can find it on the station Freeport 9 in the omicron-Theta System. To get there take a ride from frank to sigma 13 then 17 then omicron-theta. 17 and theta are in F5 about. I am currently using a Titan but I did use the eagle to get to omega-41 to get the titan. The eagle handles great and can pack a nice payload.

Have fun

what made you sell your eagle for a titan? how would you compare the two? also, i forgot another question: where can i get class 10 weapons? are there nomad weapons in mp?

Post Mon Mar 10, 2003 5:44 am

To get normal class 10 weapons you can either

a) get a class 10 weapon list

or if you enjoy pain,

b) listen to rumours or buy information from people in the bars. Just go in and out of the bar to get new rumours. They will let you know or direct you to a wreck in the system.

Well I changed from eagle to titan for armor. Also cause I had read it was "The One". But now im gonna trade it in for a sabre . The sabre has about the same specs as titan but much more appealing to me.

hi,

sorry but i have to disagree greencardlottery, i play this game very long now and don´t get informations about wrecks in the bars. The only exception i can remember is a story on planet crete (omicron gamma) where a woman told me that because of population control the corsairs send their youth with unshielded fighters in the radiation cloud nearby to collect some artifacts. When they survive they will be part of the society otherwise... This is the explantion for the fighter wrecks in 2F over there i think :-)

In my opinion the best way is to follow the patrol routes, there you can find (in the border and edge world systems ) all the tiny lvl 10 weapons.

...and yes you are able to get the nomad weapons in mp 2F in Omicron Gamma from the nomad patrols or the unknown system and/or 4F in Omicron Alpha.

sorry i´ve forgotten...

in this forum is a thread about all locations of lvl 10 weapons maybe this will be the easiest way ;-)))

another problem: i can't find the jump hole to sigma 17 from sigma 13. i followed that map of systems made by...i forget. but if you can give me specific directions on how to get to the jump hole, i'd appreciate it.

i'm on my way to getting the eagle, but i still need some guidance on where to get lvl 10 weapons or nomad stuff.

fds

Sometimes people with the (i) icon over their head will tell you the location of a shipwreck for a fee.

Lately all they are offering me is locations of bases and jump gates that I already know. Sure it's more realistic this way that they apparently have no idea about what I know already, I still wish they would be more useful.

Post Tue Mar 11, 2003 3:49 am

The jumphole Sigma13->Sigma17 is at F5
There is a topic on where to find the lvl10 guns, it's called something like Gameguide: level 10 weapons..

Post Tue Mar 11, 2003 6:25 am

How do you get to Omicron Theta from Sigma-17? Where is the jump hole/gate?

Nevermind. I found it. Man, this really IS in the middle of nowhere!

Agree and disagree with Kermit above, following patrol routes are a great way to find many things, jumpholes, bases, and sometimes the odd wreck or 2. Disagree with the bar rumor thing, have had a few times where bar rumors have told of ships lost in certain areas, or destroyed in radiation zones. and once in new york a bar patron offered to sell me the location of a derelect ship near the badlands.

who do you need to be in good standings with to get the eagle? im not quite to that point in the game yet , but will be within a few days so it would be cool to know who and who not to kill if possible =)

You have to be at least neutral to the zoners (to at least land on their station that is).
