Location of rocket launcher and Sgt Rubble?

justindavis · 08-25-2004, 01:55 PM

Hello - two questions - Where do you find the rocket launcher for the rockets you buy from the umpani? Where is the Sentry station that you go to meet Sgt Rubble for your next mission?

I can not find either of them, and I want to see what this is all about.

Thanks - JD

Sentry station? What sentry station? You get Launcher from Rubble in gunnery.

Gunnery is located where the other Mt Gigas training is, near that computer that validates your ID to open the appropiate training doors.

Hi justindavis,
Mt Gigas is confusing at first and even for a vet. It's about the only time I pull out my Strat guide for the map. You'll get the weapon from the sergeant when the time comes. You can buy rockets now if you want and just leave them laying there.

Hmmm - this is my millionth time thru the game, yet it is my first time with the Umpani oddly enough. Variol, You mention that it is tricky to find Mt Gigas Caves. I have only seen it thru the sea caves entrance. How should I go to find Sgt Rubble, the sentry station, and the land based entry to Mt gigas caves. Cool - something new!

You can reach the Umpani base camp from the monastery road. There is a point where the road between the monastery and Arnika splits, with a branch going north. Follow that branch to the next section, then find the bridge and cross. That will take you to the camp.

Note that you will have to sign up with the Umpani in order to obtain a rocket launcher. Once you do the assignments, finding Sgt. Rubble should be a little easier. He isn't around until you join the Umpani

It's not hard to find the caves, ti's just a bit confusingto get around them. You enter the caves once you get the lvl 3 security pass. You go up the stairs, past the computer and up the elevator. Then you go up the elevator again, take a right then left and follow that 'til you come to a little control panel in the middle of the hall. Use your pass, it will break down so fix the wires and scan again. Then to straight through to the practice area where rubble's waiting for you. He's give you the launcher. Don't waist them on the dummies, just leave and take your first right and there he is again (darn he's quick).

The Rockets Are Useless. Very little damage for their price and weight. And slow. A good archery set does more damage per round. Or Fire Stix, even.

Yes, just like 83.5% of the weapons you find, it's garbage, but I wanted him to try it for himself.

Variol

Are you saying you don't need to do the dummy thing at the firing range, or are you saying use normal melee and ranged weapons on them?

If the latter, I'm going to scream.
