You only get house weapons off those ships associated with that factions.

All police drop their associated house weapons. You will get more of these being a pirate then being a good profession. Point being, a pirate has a hard life.
Certain other "house" corperations and pirate factions also drop their house weapns.

Ex: Liberty rogues drop the Liberty Cray gun

These are not easy to get. They are the BEST weapons in both damage, energy usage, and effects. They have excellent effects and are extremely deadly. They are also the rarest drops.

Hellfires and Starfurys also are special drops that are just slightly lower in terms of firepower of the house weapons.

what other guns are there? i have found the bretonia ARC and the kusari dragon beam. what are the others called? do they all do the same damage just with diff fire rates?

gee, that guys cool!

All house guns do a total of 2400 dmg per second. They also have the best graphics.

Liberty Cray - 3x a sec
Bretonia Arc - 4x a sec
Kusari Dragon Beam - 10x a sec
Rheinland PAC - 1x a sec

Then there is the less rare drops

Hellfurry guns & turrets - 3x a sec, 2300 dmg
Starfury guns & turrets - 25x a sec, 2300 dmg

That's all I'm giving away, I'll let you discover the rest

i thought all the house weapons did 2400, cause i know the BR ARC does 600 at a rate of 4 for a total of 2400.

gee, that guys cool!

Opps my bad, you are correct. I will correct the post above.

I just have to say I adore the hit effects of those house weapons... They look awesome! I haven't checked the ARC and PAC, I've just found them and sold them since I used a liberty BS and didn't want to lose my plasma missiles.

i have found that the easiest way to get a house weapon and with out shooting any police or military ships is this.

take a random mission that has you destroy a battleship.
you may or may not get a house weapon out of it but thats how i found all of them.

is it a level thing? do you have to be a certain level before the ships will start dropping them?

I got 3 Kusari, 2 Rhineland, 1 Nomad weapon, and about 3 or 4 Hellflurry and Starfury lvl 10 weapons in the Jersey debris field killing Xenos and a few Rogues. I still had a starflier - so I sold all my non Lvl 10 weapons at Fort bush and bought a starviper.

I decked it out -

This took me about 1.5 - 2 hours in ver 1.6

I still hadn't left NewYork.

Pretty mod - but I have to wonder about the balance -
Tried Hostile Universe and figured out how to use the Hyperspace gates to make money NBerlin -> NTokyo...

Finally got 90,000 - went to NMars on way back to Manhattan -... Crash.

Oh well - I guess I just need to find some cool tutorials for adding Gunships and Capships to patrols and random missions.

Wish someone had a pre-setup way of adding that without editing every system...
