Starburst Shockwave Cannons

[Paladin-Solo]

Are they just incredibly rare or is my game screwed up? I purchased 5 of them when i bought my Yokohama, and just picked up an osaka and can't find a single one.

[Deadbeat_Spinn]

Rare, as are the majority of Terran weaponry.

See i don't have a problem picking up EMPC, AM/M Warheads, or the Point singularity projectors, in fact my I filled out all the gun slots immediately and borrowed 3 Starbursts from my Yokohama. The ship is an absolute beast though, and whenever an enemy or friendly fighter crashes into me i can't stop laughing, lol.

There are 2 ways to get these weapons.

1. Build your own factories.
2. Go shoppiong with 15x 5* marines and an M7M.

[Deadbeat_Spinn]

*Cough* three ways.

3. Cloning.

where can i buy terran factories? Cause i'm not seeing them anywheres. I'd really love to have my own EMPC, PSP, M/AM, and Starburst factories to equip my terran fleet with.

You need to have completed the Aldrin missions. When you have a new shipyard will appear in a new sectoer. Is is the only place you can buy them.

Where do i start these missions? I imagine in aldrin but where specifically, i was there the other night and found a mission to transport someone but that was it and no more missions popped up.

[Ferdilance]

Search the FAQ it lists all mission starts and minimum requirements for them.

Wasn't the freightdronebug fixxed? Heared something like that.

Yes the Freight Drone exploit was corrected in 1.4, IIRC, but I was refering to the EQ/Shipyard method.

There is also option 4. Take it by force from the Xenon. You don't necessarily get to decide what the cap ships drop when they explode... but kill enough ships and you'd get the weapons you are after.

Heck, I have more Point Singularity Projectors in my universe than SSCs. Checked using adv. ware chaser. Had to clone to outfit my Tokyo.

I have never seen a xenon ship drop a terran weapon. Has anyone else

Yes, they drop terran weapons occasionally but as spur390 pointed out drops are "random", even giving null sometimes.

For example I just raided sector 598 just out of boredom, 1 K, 1 J and about 5-6 Q's netted some 9 A-M lauchers, 2 Point singularity projectors and few EMP / starburst weapons. Plus of course the usuall dropings of commonwealth weaponry like photon cannons etc...

[dalin80]

just picked up 33 PSP's from a single xenon sector.

its a shame i currently dont have a terran ship and was actually looking for IBL's.

but into storage they go for a possible use in the future.

Guess I'm going shoping in xenon territory!
Do they take plastic or just plasma?

It's the best place to acquire expensive or inaccessible weapons (since you have enough firepower to do so..)
I pratically armed a Titan and a Deimos with the weapons that I got in their sectors...
Sometimes pirate Brigantines and Galleons release good weaponry too..
