Aspirin/Ibuprofen, as a pain-killer and anti-inflammatory.

Greek Yogurt slathered on the burns. Leave it there for some time.
Aloe Vera is also recommended, but I've never tried that before. I can attest for the above two.

Because Badspot perm banned me for 'abusing resports'.

Please don't try to be sly and make it out like you were banned out of the blue for no reason.
Would you tell the forums what you told me you put in your report message?

I don't think it counts as a score.
You can't rate something as nothing out of nothing, because that is the only score possible if you're counting it out of nothing.

oh hell yeah it is, because energy > ballistics all day every day
final vengeance fully modded with charging barrels is loving broken when you've got maxed heavy gunner

I mean, it's pretty hardcore without max heavy gunner.
I carry it around with me and it's my "I'm scared, annihilate everything" weapon.

Alpha Deathclaw dropped on me today, and I took it out before it even finished its roar that it does.

do mr handies (that doesn't sound correct) not carry them? I'm absolutely certain they did in previous games, but I can't specifically recall whether or not they do in this one

I think they carry some, yes.

But they're not an overly common robot enemy, compared to protectrons.

I get most of my flamer fuel from filing cabinets, because of the  scrounger perk.

that questline was its own reward though

It was brilliant.

the flamer is wonderful in this game, the default receiver does decent damage while having the best range so far out of any flamer in the 3d games, but holy stuff the ammo is hard to come across due to merchants only selling ~100 at a time and there being next to no flamer-wielding opponents outside of the forged

I'll have to consider giving it a longer go.
I didn't really get on with it, and it was just silly when I gave it to my companion to use.

I used to sell all the flamer ammo I picked up because I didn't use it.

just give it a mod: "rusted receiver" and require gun nut 2 or 3 or something to get the standard receiver or some stuff

That would be a better solution to the issue of having the minigun too early.

It sucks especially given there are only a handful of non-explosive Heavy Guns in the game, and I don't think they're all that accessible/useful.
Minigun is just really weak.
Flamer is too short a range for most instances.
Gatling Laser can be difficult to come across, and to fuel, at lower levels.
Broadsider requires you to complete a quest, and then its ammo is quite sparse, and it's a slow weapon to use.
Plasma Thrower is a stronger Flamer, with similar range, and a less common ammo source than the Flamer.

A shame, given how much I love carrying a heavy weapon in my power armor while strolling through the Glowing Sea.

is it me or does the minigun just suck stuff
even with maxed heavy gunner i feel like i do more damage with my single-shot laser rifle than a minigun

Yeah, the damage is really low on the basegun, at just 8 damage. And while it's got a high fire-rate, it has awful accuracy, so most of your attacks just don't hit at a mid-long range.
If you have top Heavy Gunner you still only do 16 damage per hit, which is less than some assault rifles, and less accurate.

ANd if you upgrade it to Tri-Barrel, it gains +3 damage, giving you 11 (or 22 with top Heavy Gunner), but the fire-rate actually drops (with a slight increase in accuracy). Possibly making it a less effective gun than before.


Whereas the Gatling Laser can do a base damage of 14 (doubled to 28), and has a fire-rate of 272.
It can then be upgraded twice to get a bonus of 52 damage, giving you 66 total (or 132 doubled).

The Minigun was basically nerfed in order for it to feature early on in the game.
It made for a great moment to fight the Deathclaw in Concord with Power Armor and a Minigun, but you get that weapon so so early that it would be overpowered if its damage was realistic.

Yes. You boil ham/gammon. And it's lovely.
