Concerning side op 107 (gunsmith)

so when I did this originally quiet killed the gunsmith :snoop:

I've read that if I keep doing side quests it should pop up again. Mainly stun arm and extract legendary bear. As well as make sure I complete any side quests in the same area.

I've done all this and it still hasn't come back. Anyone have any advice, I'd like to get on my way to customizing guns

It's crazy that this turned out to be Volgin when I (and many other people) speculated it was him at the very first "Phantom Pain" trailer reveal

On extreme it still one hit killed me in my level 2 battle suit. I need the high powered brennan or a comprabable rifle to deal with their recharging armor. Thanks though.

If you're talking about the "capture legendary gunsmith again/yet again side ops" I didn't know that could happen. I assumed it would be failed if you killed him allowing you to redo it. :dwillhuh: damn that sucks as if you have to delete your save file to get him :huhldup:

If you're just talking about a gunsmith specialist then you can just redo the main mission that they're in and make sure to scan soldiers in the AO.

Ground Zero save files transfers over some nice content but nothing game changing. Storyline wise everything is rehashed through recordings and cutscenes more or less in this game. And yes get the game :wow:

What's wormhole extraction? An upgrade I don't have yet?

For those that have beat the game
Do I have to do the Extreme and Subsistence missions to get the final story mission and side op, or can I essentially skip them for now?
The wormhole Fulton upgrade basically creates wormholes when you Fulton stuff:
  • Enemies can't shoot it down
  • You can Fulton indoors
  • Fulton attempts always have 100% chance of success
  • (I think) it's silent so enemies nearby won't hear you extracting
To get Quiet's last mission and side op you need to have your bond at 100. But note:
once you do the "Find Quiet" side op you automatically start her final mission "A Quiet Exit" You're going to need hella explosive weapons and your battle suit AND most importantly Quiet will no longer be available for deployment for your game in any capacity. There are many articles and threads online about it. People have petitioned to have her patched back into the game.

If you want to keep her you have to do the following:
  • If on PC there's a mod
  • If on console you can either keep the bond below 100 or you can equip the butterfly (front) part to your emblem but doing either of these things "locks" your mission progression until you remove the emblem part or increase the bond
I honestly forgot how I got the final one...I just did all the important side ops and main missions and it popped up. If you want the cyborg ninja suit you have to complete all of the regular story missions (with a S rank? I got S on all of them but don't know if the rank mattered. For the raiden suit you need to get a S rank on all of the variants you're asking about.[\SPOILER]

That was obvious breh...

They even changed the character design from the original trailer because it was so obvious who he is...
