Anybody else named their favourite guns? I feel so American

Gaus rifle is amazing btw. Picked one from traider at Goodneighbor. One shot kill for most targets.

Level 30 now and not even close to finishing the game. Played only handful of missions so far, while explored good part of the map and almost fully upgraded Sanctuary.

Is it still the king of damage per shot ?

Confirmed, "base gaus rifle outclasses a .50cal hunter rifle".

Note sure about a two shot hunter rifle tho

@JuveJay is right, this game turns you all into americans.

559 from cleo, might have some barter skillbook boost or something

179 damage per shot, in its basic form (lvl3 rifleman), my two shot nearly fulled modded sniper was 147

Rifleman perk

Without any upgrades it does 110 dmg per shot. Beastly. My second weapon is sniper (upgraded) that does 64 dmg and uses 50 cal.

 

[Zacheryah]

But the 2mm EM rounds are 24caps per round. What the fuck, seriously

Gotta take that perk soon.

No man, just get some skillbooks.


Check my post on the previous page for the terminator build

All but Red Rocket, funnily enough, because I got sidetracked into doing all the others and million other missions. That's always my problem in these kind of games, I have trouble sticking to quest lines.

I think I'll get the Local Leader perk next and sort out supply lines, so I can use the tonnes of crap I've been scavenging and build it up properly. Laser turrets all over the roof ftw.

Stumbled across the Old Gullet Sinkhole yesterday, shit myself and ran upstairs to the nearest house. You'll see why.

Spoiler

Jump down the sinkhole

Me too, though I fell down into some kind of cavern and escaped it

One thing I've only realised after hours of building up settlements is that it's pointless constructing sleeping quarters on second levels if you're doing so in and around pre-existing houses (like in sanctuary). I kept getting complaints that there weren't enough beds despite having ten spare.

Every settlement I have now has massive ground floor dorms with all beds inside and no more complaints, hope this helps you guys.

I'm at level 43 now (have been off work sick for 5 days so had nothing better to do ) and I'm just passed the Valentine mission. Will take a break from the main storyline now as like someone said before me, I don't want it to finish too soon.

Most powerful weapon I have (bar any heavy weapons) is my full modded sniper rifle with the enemy tracking scope. Tend to use the .44 pistol with the bull barrel mostly though, I called it 'Dirty Harry' (I'm aware it's not the same type of gun but you get the idea)

Am I the only one who thinks miniguns are incredibly weak in their base state ?

Max damage with mods is like 12 I think, but the fire rate makes up for it.
Not sure if this is a spoiler but there is a specialist mini gun available

Spoiler

Have you picked up the one with incendiary rounds?

 

[Zacheryah]

Currently buzy with non auto rifles, was thinking to get the gatteling laser instead ?

Gotta take that perk soon.

If i calculate this correctly

110 damage
220 damage with 5/5 rifleman
412.5 damage with shielded barrel and capacitor boosting coil
...this is without charging it

3.5x crit damage with sneak maxed


thats more damage then a fatman

Haven't come across that yet either. Most of my perks are non auto specific, haven't leveled up any of the energy weapon ones. Though they seem to work well against ghouls.

More satisfying blowing heads up with hunting rifles rather then turning enemies into ash piles

Yeah. My 147dmg hunter rifle (two shot legendary, powerfull receiver) has been a blast so far.

Damn, that's heavy. Haven't taken any of the perks that improve weapon dmg yet. Was more focused on obtaining perks more vital to settlement development, like local leader and cap collector, which allowed me to build trading posts and gather nice amount of caps any time I return to Sanctuary.

Spoiler

Stumbled upon deathclaw while doing witchcraft museum quest last night. It took 3 nukes to put that fucker down.

 

[Salvo]

So with 10 charisma you only get 20 people per settlement. That's pretty shit.

 

[Vlad]

I don't think you need to have 10 charisma for max number of settlers. I have 9 charisma and 20 settlers. But yeah, it's pretty shitty number.

Very low calibre rounds though aren't they? It's the rate of fire that makes them useful, especially if you aim high it keeps enemies on the back foot.
