Fighting enemies is the main source of new hardware in Jagged Alliance 3 but Haemimont also provided other ways to acquire some rather interesting gear.
For example, simple dialogue will often yield great rewards like an indestructible crowbar or a machete that crits for days. These inventions are courtesy of Wlad the Inventor, who may or may not have loose connection to a certain fictional bat.
Wlad is located in Ille Morat, which is close to The Major's fort, in sector D17. You will first have to clean the settlement of any hostiles.
There is always the good old-fashioned way of killing them yourself but if you need extra firepower, you can use a merc who is adept at Mechanics to fix a projector on the hill. Make sure you do this during the night, at which point you can turn the light on and summon the Beast with the signal.
After clearing Ille Morat, you can speak with Wlad who will offer to build you some items if you give him enough parts. The initial 40 parts will go towards making you an AK-47, 20 parts will be used for the aforementioned unbreakable crowbar and 10 parts plus a knife will provide the Composite Machete.
The machete has a fairly similar performance to the regular one but it also has a massively increased crit chance. The only melee weapon that outperforms it is The Thing which you can obtain elsewhere, with a lot more headache.
Keep in mind that the crowbar will still lose condition but it can be repaired infinitely as long as you have Parts in your inventory.
