    Default sixth exception

    thank you, brad, but just let me add the

    SIXTH EXCEPTION in your weapon list for the benefit of new players:

    DROP ONLY WEAPONS

    these are weapons you can find in killed enemies.

    there's a dex 4 nailgun pistol and a dex 5 street rifle, obtainable from mutants (as well as from shops) and varying in quality from poor to good, some even may have up to 2 slots.

    more important are drop-only weapons from dungeon boss mobs:

    TL/STR 90 Storm Laser Cannon (from Gaia Mine)
    TL/STR 90 Judgement Day Rocket Launcher (from wasteland storages)
    TL/PSI 90 Chaos Queen Flame Avalanche Spell (from Chaos Caves near canyon)
    TL/STR 107 energy soulblade (from worm tunnels)

    all drop-only weapons come in very high quality and 0-5 slots. since roaming the caves is a favourite leisure time activity in NC for many players, you might find them at a reasonable price.

    Hmm you can find "Weapons" in belts but for me there were more PPU Spells than other rare Stuff.

    Simply to explain why. The imho most important PPU Spell is the Shelter which should be in the save slot. To loose your 5 slot (perhaps ultimated) Holy Shelter is really bad . So an PPU has to put his rare Spells (if he want them to carry around) into non-safe Slots.

    Some additional info for Slotīs. There are a lot of people who think the best weapon is only a 5 Slot Weapon. Fact is itīs not true. Well you can put many Mods into it but that was it. More important are the stats of the weapon which was explained here. At last one slot is a must be for the ammo Mod (also explained here).
    If you are unsure what to put for Mods into a weapon ask the conster. Imo ask an other person too and then buy the stuff. Some oldschool conster from nc1 seems not to know exactly what the mods in NC2 do. So take a look about it if itīs true what they say.

    Two ways to get your rare weapon.
    1. Collect rare parts, let ress them and try to get one set of an weapon. Then go to a Conster.
    2. Collect Money or rare parts and buy one.
    (3. be into an clan an get one)

    Ok there was already much said about that but there are some secrets noobs donīt know.
    In the first case itīs really hard to get the needed parts. First the researcher is not allways honest and give you bad parts (meele, drone or simply parts which drops often) back (and take the good ones for himself). The second Case the conster gives out an 0-2 Slot weapon but built an 3-5 slot one.
    So decide exactly who you bring your rare Stuff.

    In Facts thats true and donīt believe to someone who says anything other. If you donīt think so take a look at the trade channels and listen to it. Itīs a strange thing why some conster often sell really good weapons and build only crap if you stand near them and listen.

    The DEX 1 nailgun and the DEX 5 rifle are both recycling recipes. The DEX 4 nailgun is available in stores everywhere, in addition to being a drop from low level mutants and beggars. You can also find the recycled recipe weapons at a few smugglers, but it's not worth it to do so.

    pardon me, but the dex 5 street rifle in fact is avail., by mutant drop and shop, not by recycling. recycling will give you street dex 2 and mendicant assault dex6, but thats rather a minor issue.

    i didnt get the dex 4 nailgun from any other mob than the mutant trooper, beggars are using all kinds of lo-lvl weaps but refuse to drop them.

    I Find this behaviour outrageous! I built a 5 slot CS for someone the other day, 4 Slot Exec and did I keep it? Hell No!
    Good for my trade when word gets around that I am trusted tbh.

    Top tips to deal with traders scamming your weapon, "keep trade open" and be wary if they access their gogo! most guys are not going to carry every single rare weapon in the inventory just in case someone asks for one to be built. Talk about overloaded .

    However the same can't be said for ressers you don't know what tech your handing over just that its an L,T,E so make sure you get back a L,T,E pool part. other than that they can swop if they want

    I dont think he was talking about your ninastore

    Really, for a resser/cster either get your own, or make some friends.

    I mean, if your nice enough I can log a tradeskiller whever, and Im almost always on
