While the strength and ammo consumption make them inconvenient to use, Sprtel-Wood and Gatling Laser are game-breaking in combination with sources of what I call "static crit". Most sources of crit chance are multiplied by the Crit % mult on the weapon, (which is very low on these weapons) but some sources are "static" and just give the same crit chance to every weapon. The relevant sources for these weapons are "Set Lasers for Fun" +4 Crit, "Laser Commander" +10 Crit, "Light Touch" +5 Crit, and the 5% crit from VATS attacks. I personally used a Sprtel-Wood to kill the Legendary Bloatfly with this and it astonished me how quickly I burned his health bar down.

I was always a fan of the incinerator. I got it on my first playthrough at Primm and thought it was the best. Mixing it with the Heave Ho perk makes it a fiery mortar, lobbing shots from distances I didn't think possible and accurately too if you know how to measure the distance.

It really is super fun and it's a shame that fire in general is so weak in New Vegas. It's very good on like Normal or easier modes, but I only play on Very Hard and only with upgraded ammo and all relevant perks does it get to be of any use. But when it is built around, it makes for a fantastic long-range siege weapon to take out easy raiders/animals, cripple and scatter cazadores, or get deathclaws and super mutants taking on damage before switching to some other goodies.

I’ve been using the plasma caster for my recent playthrough, and i would honestly put the upgraded plasma caster up in s tier. Its dps is almost the same as the smitty but higher damage per. shot, making the smitty pretty much inferior. Kinda sad since i liked the fo1 reference. Only thing holding it back is the lower amount of hp.

I also only recently got around to really boosting the plasma caster after having been unimpressed as a newer player with it's performance and knowing how to play it's insane. Fast Shot, upped ammo, and just a couple of relevant perks and even on a low critical character it can just blast through a mountain.

Plasma caster is my fav to give to companions too. It's pretty ammo efficient and is suitable at many ranges. So it doesn't really matter what Veronica or Arcade try to shoot it at, they'll hit hard without pissing away ammo.

@nybethobdilord6912 2 ай бұрын

The regular Plasma Caster is better outside of VATS while the Smitty Special is much better in VATS. Because it is full auto, Plasma and has high base damage for a full auto weapon. That means it gets Plasma Spaz perk, shoots 3 shots for every action and each of those shots have high base damage. At a base damage of 35 per shot a single action in VATS will deal around 105 damage. That's without perks and with standard ammo.

@Osteichthyes Жыл бұрын

I also never really found a use for them. Energy rifles were just easier to build around, more easy to repair, and did comparable outputs. Being able to put SPECIAL points into other things instead of STR is also another reason. These big energy weapons just don't have a ton of synergy late game. Early game incinerators and flamers are a super solid choice though until armor starts becoming a thing.

@nathantschirhart9711 Жыл бұрын

I personally bumped the Cleansing Flame up to A-teir. I always rock this thing when entering lonesome Road DLC with the pyromaniac park. Why? Those freaking Tunneler abominations. Their small, speedy little fuckers, they burrow under the ground So they can pop out of anywhere, They always travel in packs & Hit like a freaking truck. Especially the hulking ones, those things down deathclaws in seconds. In short, They could become the most annoying enemy in the DLC. Emphasis on could, cuz first playthroughs through lonesome road, Even on high level with unique guns, especially on survival/hardcore mode, these things just ate up my bullets & treating them like mosquitoes bites. But boy oh boy did I learn a thing or two about returning to the roots of discovering fire. These creatures are highly flammable, and while scaring them off with a flare gun is always an option. I found to take the more up close and personal approach much more satisfying. So I slap on the Cleansing Flame & pick the pyromaniac perk for my jack of all trades build. And let me tell you, this thing instantly becomes the bane of all tunnelers. It melts through them all like butter even in packs, especially when going down the elevator into the silo & jump over the lifts fences. You could fry these mangie gits before they even set foot in the elevator, meaning you've got yourself a safe trip all the way down & You're very own personal tunneler repellent in the form of a devastating dragon breathing weapon of choice. In conclusion, tunneler's fear nothing, but the moment you equip the cleansing flame. The only thing they truly fear, is you & your Cleansing Flame, Cuz your cleansing the freaking world of these abominations & having a hell of a good time doing so. So yea, forever A-tier.

Flamethrowers always bugged me in FNV and FO4 because of their effectiveness, sure they are not going to be as lethal as just straight up shooting someone with hot lead in the head, but either way they fell way too underwhelming Idk if that was possible for Obsidian at the time but giving flamed targets fear and panic would absolutely justify low direct(and still kinda low burn damage but maybe thats just me), otherwise they just always feel like glorified cooking utensils(and i cant even forget that in fnv flamethrowers are literally used by White Gloves to just cook up some meat lol)

The DT system in NV make flamers borderline useless which is probably one of the greatest weaknesses of the DT system. With DR in FO3, the damage was reduced by a percentage which allowed flamers to still do tons of DPS. They then ruined DR in FO4 causing most weapons to be borderline worthless by lvl 70 and for the flamer to be completely worthless.

The Gatling Laser having a low Crit Multiplier isn't an issue since several of the perks for boosting crit chance for lasers such as Set Lasers to Fun!, Laser Commander, and Light Touch boost crit chance by a flat amount. A total of a flat +19% crit chance can be applied to the Gatling Laser when those perks are applied. That's just two perk choices (Set Lasers for Fun! is a challenge reward perk) for a near 1-in-5 critical hit chance on a Laser RCW, Gatling Laser, and MF Hyperbreeder Alpha.

Pulse gun is also a tool and a bloody good one, it deserves S tier for a reason. Euclid is BOTH a tool AND a weapon, and it's in no cursed twisted dimension lower than S tier.

With a properly built character the regular gattling laser is the strongest weapon in the game, there are so many perks that benefit the weapon and the weapon mods are really powerful Obviously I'm excluding mini nukes, they surpass the gattling laser dps by quite a lot but it's more of a technicality You can have a lot of extra ammo for it if you're smart and use the unique recharger pistol on weak enemies, it's surprisingly powerful with laser commander

Upgraded gatling laser is much stronger than the Sprtel Wood once you have Camarader-E (+5 damager per beam) and all the critcal perks. Laser Commander + Light Touch + Set Laser for Fun will give it 19% chance for a critical hit per shot. With Eye for an Eye, Slasher amd Yao Guai meat using Max Charge ECP you get over 1500 DPS ignoring crits. My damage build has 1620 DPS (54 damage per shot 30x per seconds, without crits).

Arc welder is weird. I know 100% against robots it does a flat + solid number effect damage regardless of other factors such as your skill and it can help for some locations with weak trash robots with ease. I think it also does some to power armour to a lesser extent. It's by no means amazing but I gotta respect they did give a weapon to deal with Just the basically trash of robots

@GG_Nowa Жыл бұрын

It also is absolutely cracked in owbs because it doesn't suffer the damage penalty to robots in that dlc like emp rounds (I think) the emp gun and the NCR dogtag weapon. I still agree d tier is probably the position overall but if you're doing owbs I'd bump it to maybe a mid c because it can be useful at all those stages

I think so too. The only thing the Sprtel-Wood has going for it is that it's more ammo efficient cuz it does more damage per shot... but even so, Electron Charge Pack ammo is pretty easy to come by.

@danielcook8480 Жыл бұрын

I kinda disagree with alot of stuff and kinda think most energy heavy weapons suck mainly because of two things dt system and crit multi of automatic . For example in your video fighting legion assassins it seemed that a 600 dps weapon took along time because of lack of crits (which sucks considering energy weapon builds get laser commando making crits insane ) and also the dt system means the 16 damage shots will be considerably weaker (ammo kinda helps) .

m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rpd8aaqQ2ZidaHU.html This is how fast you can clear out deathclaw promontory with the Gatling laser. No other weapons I've seen can do it at this speed. Laser commander is actually best on high dps weapons like the Gatling laser because it's a flat bonus, meaning it's unaffected by the bad multipliers these weapons have. Combined with max charge, only robots and power armor can have any noticable effect on your dps, and they still go down decently quickly from my experience.
