Insider Information: Trading Tip

There are rumours that a ‘Shady Scientist’ is seeking certain scavenged robot parts. The scientist was last seen at Fort Troy and it’s speculated that he is a disgraced researcher from the RDI.

Someone may know exactly which NPC but this should help.

It's not exactly like those upgrades at Ithaca. Private Cooper at Fort Troy just awards those in exchange for Robot Communication Matrix (looted from big bots).

i saw Private cooper and i have activated the mission

I Found this :
Anonymous Bounty Offer

then i must find a "Damaged Splicing Detector" i think it is extremly rare.
The search zone is All calypso map? or just a part of it?

"Damaged Splicing Detector"

I know they were dropping during the robot events of the past, no idea if they drop outside of events.

They still loot but they are extremely rare. I wouldn't call that an upgrade mission, you just hand in one item and get another one.

Might even be cheaper to just buy either than trying to loot one.
