Where to get the katana blueprint?

[epicfacedave]

Is there a guaranteed spot somewhere?
Ive been stopping by the hub and the rebel base every now and then when they refresh their stock and I havent seen it yet. am I just unlucky or should I be looking elsewhere?

[Zeel Ara]

I don't know of a place where it will always appear in the store, but it appears pretty often in rebel hideout. Just hang around and kill dust bandits for a while, making sure you check the store every refresh. It shouldn't take more than a handful of days.

[Khan Boyzitbig of Mercia]

Could try the library in black scratch, has the largest collection of blueprints of any shop. Otherwise keep checking with appropriate sellers, there is no guaranteed spawn for that blueprint iirc but many traders who sell weapons can spawn it.

[cougar206]

In the area of the border zone the hub and rebel base are the only places you will find it. You will see it every few days if you check regularly. You may have been a bit unlucky so far. Weapon shops in Mongrel and Heng will have it 95% of the time. Any Tech Hunter or UC weapon shop can have it. Shek or Holy Nation will never have it.
