Jeloxale Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Droprate is always the same, about 1% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Lord_Gremlin Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It's simply rare, but it does drop. I gifted multiple copies to clanmates. It also appears on nightmare alerts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetie_Belle Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Tips on how to get one: Acquire Venus' whole system. Consider farming there for lower level Nightmares. Acquire Valkyr for invincible rush missions. Get bacon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talaiar Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Hello, Well, I am a PC-player, but I assume the drop rates and locations of Hammer Shot are the same for us both. Hammer Shot drops only from Nightmare missions. I've never heard / noticed any significant drop rate difference between which planet or mission I pick - so long as it's Nightmare. Tips: - Farm using Rhino / Valkyr or Loki / Ash [size=3] (Loki / Ash invisibility for quickly bypassing enemies on Sabotage + Capture - Rhino / Valkyr if you find yourself dying a lot) [/size]. - Try to stick to easy mission types , such as Sabotage, Capture, or Exterminate. - Fight the easier faction : Grineer / Corpus [size=3] (I prefer fighting Corpus, because their laser weapons are slower and more-easily dodged) [/size]. - Solo is often easier and faster - if you can handle Solo, that's what I'd recommend. - The easiest Nightmare Challenges are : Timer or Health Vampire. - Quit and reset the level if you get the harder challenges - No Shields or Energy Vampire. - Try farming the low level planets [size=3] (Venus, etc) [/size] for Nightmare missions - these usually have fewer enemy types to deal with. Hammer Shot is only given as an end-of-mission reward [size=3](it does not 'drop' from enemies)[/size]... so whichever mission type you can beat most quickly is probably your best bet for farming. Good luck! Edited July 24, 2014 by Talaiar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)lucianoip Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Tks a lot for the tip...i still dont have ash or loki for stealth runs...still trying to progress through the solar system to the right planets to farm for them Right now i can do mostly exterminate missions with vectis (die sometimes), so it takes some time... I guess i am just unlucky for now Edit- i'll use it with vectis and amprex Edited July 24, 2014 by (PS4)lucianoip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vectis is one of my favourite guns, but one of the faster-killing weapons may help speed up the process - Soma / Penta / Phage, etc. There's always Trade Chat as well, by the way. Even though Hammer Shot is exceedingly rare, I always seem to see players claiming it's only worth 5-10p [size=3](it is, oddly, one of the most misunderstood mods, price-wise)[/size]. I've bought them for around that, and sold them for 15-25p without any fuss... so clearly they are undervaluing poor Hammer Shot. Hammer Shot is quite rare, but you'll eventually get it!

Quizel Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Edit- i'll use it with vectis and amprex Yeah, I asked cause it may not be worth the effort if you have other usable mod's maxed already :D. Funny things happen with crit weapons, tons of mods scale well with it. Twas just a thought I had. Still nice to complete the set for sure though. GL in your hunting.

(PSN)The_Moustache Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I really wouldn't go crazy over the mod. It's not as useful as you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
