Disruptor Missiles

[Ripskar]

Needed for the Corporation missions how do you all go about collecting these?

Currently my strategy is to take an M7M into 347 / 472 and level the place.
I then collect what I can from the wreckage.

Anyone come up with a better plan?

I've set the Hub to buy them.

I've set the Hub to buy them.

That works? Would it work for any Dock/Trading station with it is as a ware?

I actually haven't gotten any yet, but I only set it up yesterday afternoon. The idea is to attract NPC weapons dealers, so we'll see.

But they are not produced anywhere and NPC Traders sell what they buy. The ships that do spawn with Disruptors are not traders.

If you don't mind the modified tag, there is a mod to add Disruptor missile fabs in the game.

[Glaceious]

After playing for a year and doing allmost everything I went modified and havent looked back.

Disruptor missiles are fun anti-fighter missiles and i use them regularly along w/ Hornet and Firestorm when im flying my non-terran ships.

Modified FTW ..... if your ready for a different gaming experience.

I know it was criticized in a recent thread that it gets mentioned quite often now, but there still is kurush's vanilla cloning trick that can get you thousands of those missiles at once. Just follow the third link in my sig (the thread is english). All you need for cloning is at least one sample of the missile...

best regards,

I've had Disruptor Missiles as a ware at my Hub almost since I got it.
Never had one sold to me, though I've never connected it to the Yaki sectors.
I've cranked up the price to max and for good measure I've stuck a trading station in Senator's Badlands with a similar deal.
I suppose we just wait and see if anyone actually sells one...

[MarvinTheMartian]

Have to agree with jlehtone, the npc don't buy or sell disruptors unfortunately.

My personal method for collecting them is to hang out in a sector with a Q patrol and you should pick up 3 or 4 in a matter of minutes if the sector is busy enough, should also get a few other goodies too

[Bill Huntington]

Ripskar, the best choice is probably just to abort those missions with Disruptors.

This one is hard, but sometimes you can reload to a time before you got the mission with Disruptors. You will still get a Missile Delivery mission, but it will probably be for different missiles.

Good Luck !

My method requires mods, but it's a simple matter of parking a CODEA carrier in a sector with a lot of pirates. Any Teladi Sector works, Merchant Haven in particular, and filling it with OOS capable fighters, like Falcon Haulers, and a few fast movers.

Then a TL running CODEA, but all Cargo Salvage. You'll end up with a surprisingly large number of missiles in a surprisingly short time.

I personally see no problem with script/modding disruptor fabs in as a way to fill this requirement, as it seems more legit to me to fill corporate orders from fabs you buy and pay for yourself, instead of using the vanilla dupe cheat. To each their own though, and if it doesn't bother you, the dupe would probably get that mission out of your way faster.

I invade Xenon Sector 627 all the time, just to bump up my fight rank. At the moment, as an Assassin, I get a K and J, 3 or 4 Q's, about as many P's and PX's, and a whole mess of fighters when I go in there. Haven't had any capitals respawn on me yet (in about an hour of fighting at a time), and the respawn rate is about 2 Q's, 2 P's and 8 or 9 fighters every 10 minutes or so. A heavily armed M7 or M2 piloted by you can kill stuff in there all day with a Mistral or Springblossom picking up the dropped wreckage of the destruction you leave behind you. I probably get around 10-15 disruptor missiles an hour while doing this, which I just hold aside for the corporate missions. This isn't a very...efficient way of getting disruptors, but it does do the trick if you enjoy smashing Xenon and need to bump your fight rating fast.

My suggestion is to just mod in disruptor fabs though. Seems to me to be adding a feature, not a cheat. http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=283243

[Ripskar]

Disruptor fabs sounds intrigueing.
In the meantime I've set a new strategy by connecting the Hub to Senator's Badlands and the other gates to somewhere with a fair ammount of military traffic...

[Threesixtyci]

I usually accept and then abort, such missions.

You could try scanning weapon dealers/random ships hauling those missiles. Hit them with an ID, and comm spam them to drop their cargo. But I'm not sure if it'll work or not. Guess you also could just blow them up, and hope that the random generator spits them out.

Best way by far. No need to bother doing anything, just lose a little bit of rep with corp from aborting, and wait for a less cumbersome mission.

[Ripskar]

The thing is the repositioned Hub is actually working, The Paranid, Argon and Borons are all using Senator's Badlands as a shortcut which results in many DMs getting dropped...
The question is 'how long do I want the Hub here?'

[David Howland]

Hey Guys Behold the GOOD NEWS!
I have tried being nice to the Yaki to get IBLs, I have purchased three so far?
I searched battle sites, (even created a few), to find Dis. Mis.; I found a dozen?
Both these results are over a year!
Two months ago I set up my Dukes Domain Marine Fight Training Centre to prepare marines for boarding a Tyr. I have boarded 21 Zeus and 1 nemesis and destroyed about 50 Nemesis. I have taken over 100 IBLs and collected nearly 50 Dis. mis. If anyones interested I can give details.
My problem is I cannot stop collecting DMs, I sacked doing Corp. missions sometime ago when I got locked out Otas HQ and declared I would have no further truck with those untrustworthy money- grubbing scum!
