Where and How
Go to the clothing store you see here, it's locating in the CITY CENTER, and it's on the upper left side. The nearest travel dataterm is in the screenshot.
Go to the clothing store and speak to the shop clerk, he is called Zane. Say/do anything buy some clothing if you want to. Then leave, wait a 2-3 in-game days and you should see a quest marker show up in where the clothing vendor icon was.


Go inside and speak once again to Zane, say anything it doesn't matter. After the conversation you should be attacked by a Cyberpsycho Deal with it how you so please, you can just run around and wait for help to show up if you're low level or weak.

Once the chap has been dealt with. Continue with the quest, once it ends. KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR MELISSA RORY!


She is the MaxTac officer who has the unique mantis blades on her and she drops them. If you can't take your weapons out, quickly walk outside and walk back in again DONT LEAVE THE AREA ENTIRELY. Then you should be able to attack her. Quickly kill her and loot the mantis blades. WARNING: YOU WILL HAVE MAXIMUM WANTED LEVEL and MORE MAXTAC WILL SHOW UP


HOW THEY LOOK IN-GAME

Melissa Rory Backstory
Originally Melissa Rory was a Cyberpsycho apprehended by MaxTac.


She is the woman seen in this trailer, the name of the job is BULLETS and the song that plays in the teaser trailer is also called BULLETS. So this job is a direct reference to her.


You can find this message about Melissa during the quest "THE HUNT" when looking through one of the NCPD computers.

Hey Maka, You need the Phantom Liberty DLC to acquire these mantis blades! Unfortunately without it you cannot obtain it.

mantis blades arent dropping (i dont have dlc) pls help me

No need to kill her though... She'll drop them even if you make a non-lethal take down...
I really didn't want to kill a police woman unprovoked... Just cut her arms off, I guess... well, they're implants... she'll get new ones... Max Tac's got good insurance!

You still need to run though! :D
I memory-wiped three of the 4 guys in the store to buy me some time and prepped a bike in front to the right... you can climb something, but an easier way to get rid of the 5 star mayhem is jumping into the river... so go right and straight to the river... good luck!

Holy. Fucking. Shit. Waaaay to much enemys.

Noob tip:
Get yourself the Hellhound (that big truck with rockets and hmg)
In the store, look up. You will find a small walk over you wich you can reach with a big jump.
Good spot to take out one by one without getting overwhelmed.

After killing Melissa and taking a deep breath...
Jump down, get the blades, leave the store as fast as you can, call your Hellhound and gtfo!
After keeping some distance, search for something to climb up. Wait till the stars disappear...
And, most importantly, change your underwear after this fucking hellride. :meloncat:

Sounds good, keep manual saves on hand if you want it badly.
Mystickk 16 Oct, 2023 @ 2:15am 
oh, good to know. Ill keep an eye out for it and come back to you if i dont find it :)
mouse 𒉭  [author] 16 Oct, 2023 @ 2:05am 
Yes unfortunately you cannot obtain them then via this method. There is another method of acquiring them in the main story of Phantom Liberty which will include several spoilers if you want me to tell you
Mystickk 16 Oct, 2023 @ 1:48am 
im assuming theres no way to get it now that ive already done the quest?
