Forum:Firelance: Will it come back?

If the Firelance UFO incident took place but then you accidentally reloaded a previous save will it ever happen again?

Yes the event will happen again. --NeoScott 02:41, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

"* It could happen again in the same place. If he reloads 30000 times.
 * Just not in the same place --Snicker 15:18, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

No, not 30,000 times. go to the flooded metro south save before you get there, come from the east going west, ive gotten it there in many diff. loads and somtimes only have to load it 30 times(sometimes 100)but its worth it, save when you here a whistle like a mortar from anchorage because it can get stuck in the building(dogmeat will tell you when its in the building or not and if your missing any ammo,watch out for the missile raider and his buddies.--King of the wastes 20:31, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

is it really worth it? at most you have a hundred and forty shots, and most likely you arent going to use it because if you do you won't have it later... so i would say the worth of having it is questionable. i recently had the event on my level 5 character, which makes me question the person who said "you definitely will notice it" because i had it in broad daylight at miresti station, and only noticed the radiation, and my level 20 character either never had it, or just didn't notice... the firelance came down on top of the roof of one of the things, but after 100 jump attempts i managed to jump from a very thin ledge up to it... i came from south of it and was actually on my way to paradise falls (doing the game again - evilly) hope this helps Flying Dagger 00:49, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

♠ I actually believe Firelance is worth it. On a levelled character with the proper luck, perks, combined with Firelance's inherent ability to     land critical hits, even if you only find enough ammunition to fire 100 shots, if you use them properly, thats 100 enemies obliterated in 1 shot, virtually guaranteed. If you're familiar with the wheeling sound of a sentry bot or know that a behemoth is coming up a mountainside once you take his teddy, Firelance is a given godsend. Of course, despite the weapons power, it is NOT a must have to complete the game. But it is a    whole lot of fun to use and like I said, any hit is virtually a guaranteed kill.
