FALLOUT 4: The Best Sniper Rifle in the Game? - Over 2500 Damage! (.50cal Double Damage Legendary)

Think I've found possibly the best Legendary Sniper Rifle possible in Fallout 4. If not the best then it has to be pretty damn close to it. This Legendary .50cal Sniper Rifle dropped with the Legendary power "Deals Double Damage to Enemies with Full Life", which is GODLY for Sniping. So here's a look at it, so nerdgasmic math and some cool gameplay with it on my Sniper Build! All gameplay is recorded on Survival Difficulty (which has a 50% damage penalty to make enemies tougher).

What is FALLOUT 4?
Fallout 4 is the latest installment in the Fallout series, which has been taken over by Bethesda. Bethesda's Fallout games take serious inspiration from the Elder Scrolls series of games - huge open worlds, lots of NPCs to interact with and locations to explore. Fallout 4 is set in a post apocalyptic future where history stayed as it was in the 50s but technology took a nuclear path instead. 1950s charms mixed with hostile wastelands create a unique world for players to explore and shape.

Still a great pump gun even though it is mostly plastic, kzfaq.infoUgkxh4su9YgU1tWmjikirWcKJbjsFLEU62Bc but with care it will last a long time. It would be neat if Crosman would make a commemorative version of this with real wood stock, but of course it would weigh more and cost more, but hey, it would be cool. The included scope is more of a toy, but it does work for backyard plinking. I prefer to use pellets for greater accuracy, but BBs are just as good for plinking. This is not a Red Ryder folks; fully pumped it is 3 times the power of a Red Ryder and can be dangerous if not handled properly. Be safe out there.

@mremington8 6 жыл бұрын

In diamond city market, Aurturo sells a unique laser with same feature (x2 damage when target is at full health) - this can be easily modified to a laser sniper with some science. The benefit to this is that fusion cells are cheaper and more accessible than .50 cal ammo. the downside, no silencer. - Wastelanders friend (Deb from bunker hill) will do 50% limb damage, this is great for shooting off legs of ghouls so you dont have to immediately kill them outright, you can cripple one and move to the next target to save VATS AP,.... . and finish them off after your out of immediate danger. Wastelanders friend is an excellent 10mm follow up weapon for close quaters if your initial distance weapon did not outright kill the annoying bullet sponge.

@HeadsetRuler 8 жыл бұрын

+ZiggyD Gaming As far as I've experienced, attacks count as "sneak" if you're not in [DANGER] levels of detection when the attack hits. Because the two bullets hit simultaneously, they both get the sneak damage bonus. Recoil is doubled, but the accuracy is calculated at the same time for both bullets, so if it's your first shot with a scope, they should both hit the same exact point. Pretty sure tooltip damage is also doubled, just like how shotgun tooltip damage is all the pellets combined Keep in mind this is not fact, just my theory based on my 80-something hours of playtime

Very good for a rifle. The best weapon i've found is an Explosive Minigun. The damage it throws out is utterly insane if your specced for heavy weapons. + It's also AoE. So even if you miss (Which if you go for the shorter barrel for higher RPM you will) You still deal damage.

@Dick Grayson I think what he is alluding to is that the second bullet doesn't scale off rifleman bonuses, while the Instigating prefix simply doubles your damage against enemies with full health, so on a max HP enemy, an Instigating rifle will always do more damage than a 2-shot as long as you have at least 1 point in Rifleman.

Xavier H. They’re both good weapons but what if your companion shoots a Legendary Enemy before you do and you wanted to get a quick headshot with the Instigating sniper? However, it wouldn’t make a shit if you had the double shot sniper because regardless of full health or not, it will still do double damage. They both do the same damage as long as the target has full health.

TheLolPoster Maybe on some enemies like Deathclaws and Behemoths, but that's what RPGs are kind of about. Getting your build and gear to make hard things easy. If I get spotted the Sniper is useless though and then things become interesting, so there are still challenging and entertaining moments. And I can always not use it if I want a little more action :D

The "Instigating" legendary atribute means that when the target is at full heal you will hit it for 2X dmg but then again if you don't kill it on the first shot when it's HP is at full, all the subsecuent shots would be at normal dmg, which means the best three weapons with this feat are: Instigating Silenced Gauss Rifle (+Sneak Perks,Ninja, Deacon's Cloak and dagger Perk and Mr Sandman perks), Instigating Super Sledge (a fucking BEAST) and of course Instigating Mirv Launcher Fatman or the Legendary Fatboy, with the right perks almost nothing can survive that.

+Ace Powercolt You can farm a legendary deathclaw at Kendall Hospital. Make a quicksave BEFORE entering the hospital through the blue double doors on the west side, then enter and run past all the raiders until you drop down into the pit with the deathclaw, then kill him. Keep loading the quicksave and doing this until he drops the weapon that you want, regardless of legendary effect. Once he drops the weapon that you want, now load the AUTOSAVE that happened when you went through the door. You'll notice this time that he drops the same weapon, but with a different legendary effect. Now you just have to keep loading the autosave until you get the correct effect. I literally used exactly this method to get exactly this gun.

Instigating is FAR better than two shot when it comes to sniping. Two shot doesn't do double damage, the second bullet only adds whatever the base damage of the rifle was BEFORE any mods. Also, though it doesn't show it in the stats in game any gun takes a significant accuracy hit with two shot.

@theforgotten3812 6 жыл бұрын

Tanner Saurus oh really? :/ damn.. But surely the double shot is more reliable in the sense that the target doesn't have to be full health? Especially with all those brotherhood vertiberds, attacking nearly everything as one approaches an area taking the targets down from full health not to mention the other factions that randomly attack each other all over the place :') I for one find it very rare to come across much more than ghouls with full health (except in the glowing sea of course!)
