wow i didnt realise we had that many till i scanned your list, nice job. would anybody happen to know where to find a "katana"?!! when i saw that up there i was really happy, it could easily replace one of my regulars i switch off of.

 

not sure if every char has the same skill tree, but if so try to level up your survival skills (far right). after the inital skill you can get cheaper repair costs for all weapons, which i found to be a lifesaver. some of your "better" weapons might cost over 100$ to repair. when i first started playing i was just using weapons until they broke, then snagging a new paddle off the ground ahaha.

What instance of being in the hotel are you reffering to? Or can it be obtained anytime?

I donno if this is common or not. Came across 1 orange (legendary) weapon early in the game. Was on a bridge to one of the beach huts and ran into one of the big muscle-men walkers (Sorry, don't have terminology down). When I grabbed it it was regular (gray/white) and not orange. It was orange in my inventory though. Thought it is a good heads-up to pick most things up (unless i really just didnt notice the color)

are you guys relatively far in the story tho? right now i am still on ACT I (i think), i have just helped out all the people at the lifehouse. and started to help the survivors at the lighthouse (light-life-house two different places, safe houses.) the game keeps telling me to return to the lifeguard-red shirt guy, but i didnt want to start his "hard main mission" until my girl is buffed up.

 

so if i am still relatively early in the story, can i still snag that katana? if i were to take a trip to the hotel (eeek) is it easy to find, and will i be bombarded on my way there lulz. this is the same hotel that they start you off in correct?

1 Just found the shock gun mod.

 

When you're in Moresby and you need to escort the old guy to the water station before entering the sewers, and shortly after entering the water station..Once in the station you'll need to hit a button on a console right after turning the two water valves. The mod is on a shelf in the room right behind the command console room.

 

(the console triggers your first floater encounter)

 

2. Also found the barbed wire mod.

Once you meet the mayor in chapter 7 and go back into the sewers, continue along the path until you reach the basentof the market. From there, keep straight until the path forks, with a workbench and the mod (on a shelf) in the room your left. You need to jump onto a fallen shelf to enter the right room.

 

3. Aaaalssoooo... The toxic mod can be found in the sewers that go between Moresby and the Town Hall either time you go through there for quests. Around midway there's an open area that leads downhill to 3 tunnels that eventually merge. There's at least a Thug and some zombies in the tunnels, and a floater on the second time through. One wall in this open area has a mostly fenced off walkway that leads to a door where you'll find a workbench and this mod

 

4. Glazed mod.. Which I don't see on your list, can be found in Alicias apartment in Moresby. She is being besieged so you'll have head to the east/ne part of the map to find her.

 

5. Weighted mod is in bunker 6,SE corner of the resort map, really close to where the game starts. Fight of the siege and you'll find the plans on a table in the bunker.

 

6. Pride shotgun mod is actually called pride gun mod.

 

7. Striker shotgun mod is obtained from the quest a wounded crank, given to you by Sam in the first bunker you pass in the jungle.

 

8. Phoenix mod is by the toolbench in the building you fight afran in in the jungle.

 

9. Tesla mod can be found in the laboratory (jungle) generator room.

 

10. Razor mod can be found in the Russian bunker out in the jungle, top floor.

 

11. Shark mod comes from Carters quest "death wish" in the jungle river village.

 

12. the wakizashi is a question reward for "message of love" which is obtained from Sebastian in the buildings in southern laboratory (the map, not the building)

 

13. Shotgun detox mod is in bungalow 4 (Nguyens) in the SE corner of the lab map. You'll get a quest to go here from nguyen in the lab.

 

14. Katana is the reward for "where's my pineapple? " given to you by nguyen in the lab.

 

15. The machete (exceptional weapon) is a reward for "deus ex machina" given to you by Connor in a bungalow just south of the lab.

 

16. Striker rifle mod is in the prison armory.

Weighted Mod blue print can be found at the very southern section of the Resort Beach. Near a Portal icon, and the stash box with broken steam pipes.

 

Its in the gated area of the tunnels. This wasn't open for me early on, I came back after exploring and a few side quests at level 6, and a Saviour Type cut scene ensued, opening up the tunnels.

Ugh.. Maybe I got them backwards.. Meant to write down thequest rewards before I finished my playthrough.. Buuut I forgot.

 

Anyway, molotov blueprint is in the hotel server room with the thug in it, on the floor by the desk. You'll go through there when you reset the computers.
