Missile locations

On this outing Samus actually retains her Missile Launcher from the get-go so there's plenty of Missile Expansions to find straight away. There's only 9 to be found throughout the Alimbic Cluster, giving you a maximum possible of 95 missiles (each grants you an additional 10). But coupled with six new weapons to locate, Samus' arsenal will be far from light.

After picking up the Imperialist, you'll find this missile on your way to locating the Cartograph Artifact.
