Combine weapons are sold at the gypsy camps. As far as I know there
are 4. One in Oasis, one in North Karana, one in Lavastorm, and one in
Rathe Mountains.

I'm not sure which camp sells which weapons (it used to be that
Lavastorm sold the only piercing ones, I'm not sure that's true anymore)

The one in Oasis and North Karana are the easiest to find. Combine
weapons sell for about 50-70pp depending on what your looking at (the 2h
ones are more expensive, but you won't be buying those)
