there being next to no flamer-wielding opponents outside of the forged

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.

they do, but usually in numbers of like, 8-20
for an automatic weapon with a magazine of 100 by default
so it's not really something you can "profit" from, like the various ballistic rifles; or even energy weapons depending on who you're fighting

[Blockchip]

is it me or does the minigun just suck stuff

My legendary explosive minigun seems okay.
Probably because i've never used it on anyone with a damage resistance above 10.

I also have a poison minigun, which i'm assuming is good because the super mutant that originally used it killed me a lot with the poision.
It's the only enemy in recent memory that's killed me while i was in a vertibird, and it did so several times.

I don't really use the minigun, because it's heavy.
Even more so than my 25lb assault rifle.
Are there any lighter ballistic weapons that have rank 4 gun nut mods?

the laser minigun vastly outdoes the minigun itself

[Ragequit]

is it just me or do saves corrupt a lot

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.

god if you are real please destroy this planet

a .308 hunting rifle did make a good replacement to my .50 while i spent time restocking ammo for it, just had to make sure to always get head shots and never be detected lol

got myself a never-ending missile launcher as well. saves a lot of weight compared to a quad-capacity ml, and it definitely came in handy when for some reason the bos sent 4 vertibirbs to croup manor

and i must say, betraying the bos has been one of the best decisions i've made in a long time in this game. with all the mods i have they are so much harder to fight in squads than any other enemy type so far, and they show up all over the place. i actually died by gunfire a couple times last night as opposed to the usual exploding car, missile, or grenade. 10/10 would reccommend, do it for the coat

[kanew2000]

good one

OH

this meme is getting too powerful

I kind of regret that I didn't become enemies with the BoS until the story compelled me too.
I was on a story binge, and it wasn't long after having them as enemies that I destroyed them.

So I only had a couple of random hostile encounters with them. I would have preferred to keep them around a bit longer to spice up my exploration.
