@collinforbleach3780 he always finds you the first time, he's one of the few characters of the game that doesn't show up on your compass until he physically appears near you. i always usually meet him early on in goodsprings, i often used the trailer near the back behind the Saloon and where Sunny first takes you for the tutorial quest to sleep in on occasion, if i don't feel like going over towards Victor's shack. since most people end up making several trips back to the general store just to trade off some stuff, and to see if Chet is selling anything new. he'll wake you during the night, unless you've yet to pick up any unopened sasparilla bottle. he can't officially appear, unless you get atleast one of those blue star caps. but he always finds you, you can never find him. until you get enough of those caps, but the second time you meet isn't quite as friendly, that's also when you learn about who he's aligned with, which to be honest i don't think it would be that hard to figure out. because i can't picture the ncr wanting anything to do with a certain cap, especially considering just bottle caps in general there idea is to try get people to switch back to pre-war money. unfortunately bottlecaps is like the main currency the vast majority of traveling merchants go by.

I disagree on the placement of the MF Hyperbreeder Alpha, in my experience of about 4 full Energy Weapons-focused runs, it tends to become my primary weapon from the moment I get it at Novac. Not having to carry ammo with an energy weapon is a big deal with how quickly that weight builds up, and most energy weapons builds aren't very high Strength to begin with, so having a duel-purpose pistol/SMG that doesn't require ammo and regenerates its own ammo almost instantly is a gamechanger in the long run, especially when it means you can use that weight saved to carry more ammo for your Gauss Rifle or YCS/186 late-game. And as you mentioned with the durability, it takes a good while to wear out, and if you thought ahead and got Jury Rigging at level 14, then you can repair this thing with basic laser and plasma pistols, both of which are relatively cheap and available, as opposed to the other automatic energy weapons (Laser RCW, Gatling Laser, etc) that are an active struggle to maintain without repair kits. It's a solid S-tier in my own experience, the Alien Blaster can't hope to compete with such sheer reliability and utility.

@Slender_Man_186 Жыл бұрын

Eh, the Alien Blaster and Hyperbreeder are both S tiers, different uses. If I’m taking out Deathclaws or the BoS, I certainly wouldn’t use the Hyperbreeder, but I also would never let the Hyperbreeder leave my inventory.

The only things I would change would be putting the compliance regulator in B tier and putting Pew Pew in S tier. I agree with your reasoning and in general use, the compliance regular is C tier. I think being able to paralyze lock creatures completely trivialize deathclaws and legendary creatures and that is worth a B tier in my eyes. Pew Pew is absolutely bonkers and deserves to be in S tier. If no perks are taken to boost damage, no critical hits, and no ammo variants used, Pew Pew only does 1 less damage than Medicine Stick against enemies with 2 or more DT. So Pew Pew is equivalent to the second strongest rifle in the game damage wise but also comes with a faster rate of fire, an amazing x2.5 critical hit multiplier, zero skill or strength requirements, has access to DT penetrating ammo, and has much easier access to ammo in general. With Max Charge cells, Pew Pew blows Medicine Stick out of the water in terms of damage against targets with high DT. Against foes with 5DT, Pew Pew with MC cells deals 112.5 damage against Medicine Stick using SWC rounds (112.2) and it just keeps dropping from there. At 15DT, Pew Pew will do 105 damage while Medicine Stick with SWC rounds only does 79.2 (Medicine does only 63 damage with standard rounds so SWC remains the best option at 15DT). S-tier weapon. No competition. Gets even more insane with perks and a critical hit build.

I've always said that the problem with the Flare Gun is that you get it way too late in the game. If this was an early weapon, if you could get it back in Goodsprings, it would be so much better. As it is, it's the worst energy weapon. Pulse Gun is not bad, but it's boring. It just skips combat against robots entirely. I play the game for the combat, I don't want an instakill weapon. MF Hyperbreeder is very expensive and it's worth every cap. Great weapon when you get it, it eventually gets outclassed but I still keep it as a side weapon - for weaker enemies that aren't worth my ammo. Should be S tier. I don't like plasma weapons. The slow projectile and spread just doesn't work for me. I make exceptions for the Plasma Caster and the Q-35 and that's it.

Hey, so about the Tarantula upgrade for the sonic emitter. I know the description says it lights enemies on fire, but in my experience it actually makes them spontaneously combust and insta die. I ended up recording a game clip of me one shotting the giant roboscorpion boss at the end of big mountain because i was so confused at how the final boss went from full hp to dead in an instant. Not sure if this is a bug or something, but if not then i think tarantula is probably s tier for any energy build with a lot of crit chance.

@gavinpennington413 11 ай бұрын

I know I'm very late to this but if you run a build with the pyromaniac perk you're more than likely leveled energy weapons as is, and let me tell you: the tarantula sonic emitter gets an INSANE damage buff. it gains 30 more damage and with max or over charge energy cells the Sonic Emitter Tarantula can easily do damage into the 125-130 range. I was blown away because the pyromaniac perk affects it in the way that instead of just buffing the fire critical damage effect, it buffs the base damage and the fire damage, so the pyromaniac perk is extremely beneficial to have with it Edit: the laser commander perk also affects this weapon, meaning even more damage and more crits, and crits often one hit kill lost enemies with this variant of the sonic emitter

All at the start of the game if you make a beeline towards the Divide and do the start of Lonesome Road until you get the Laser Detonator Only downsides are accidentally blowing yourself up indoors or in close quarters and having to find the ash piles after they get launched

Pew-Pew is the ghetto version of the Alien Blaster. You can get Pew-Pew within two days of leaving Doc Mitchell's house, and that was with resting included since I went Early Bird. One shot to the dome does most anything in. It's certainly a one-tap for any human character and it makes ghouls' and super mutants' heads explode. I recently used a shot on Davison and its companion on the ghoul with the hunting rifle and it did the job both times without fail. A is absolutely correct. It's a situation-specific gun, I really wouldn't draw it on someone if there was more than one guy involved in the conflict. If you miss that first shot or your target tanks it, you need the second.

Pulse gun is the only energy weapon I've ever used. All of runs have been gun/melee, and the insta kill of the pulse gun makes it a auto include. Especially when trying to be sneaky

@slyllamademon2652 8 ай бұрын

Tip for the plasma pistol: it’s best for enemies with low Damage Thresholds. Overcharged ammo can make it do extra damage and penetrate more armor. However the moment you have a plasma rifle you should use that instead. Though I will admit you can sneak this gun into casinos and it will let you chew through anyone that gets in your way so long as they have no armor on.

@AdventShot 9 ай бұрын

Hyperbreeder should be S tier, this gun can get you through the whole game no joke, I didn't realize how good it was when I decided to buy it for my companion (turns out they won't use it) then I used it myself and hit myself on the head when I realized how well it outclassed any of my two handed energy weapons. This gun paired with a fully modded Elijahs LAER can get you through any combat situation easily, especially if you invest in the right perks.

10 second stun is broken, even more than knock down. If a gun has a 10 second stun it's A tier. The compliance regulator would be a low A tier or B tier at worst because it will kill anything eventually, and the high ammo makes it so it is semi decent at hadling more than one target. Grading it on its own you can argue B tier, as a gun though is A tier. You can land a crit, change to any anything, unload the magazine or get in melee and start hitting, go get a coffee, walk the dog, miss on doing your taxes, go to jail and serve your time, and when you come back the enemy will still be getting up. 10 seconds is a really long time in this game.

@valen9835 11 ай бұрын

Laser pistols are in a weird spot. I feel like they're not very viable early game due to the ammo, and by the time you can get enough to use them constantly you get access to better normal pistols, or just better energy weapons. I feel like only the hyperbreeder alpha is worth it, with the GRA plasma defender being a runner up. The Sonic Emitter I don't like cause it takes a second to charge up and that adds up for something that's filling the pistol role.

@coneberry6905 Ай бұрын

Compliance Regulator is S tier for me. The stun lets you kill 2 deathclaws with it simultaniously without getting hurt. It's most effective to pair it with another weapon, so maybe it's not an S tier weapon by itself, but definitely an S tier energy pistol. I just finished lonesome road for the first time, and CR is the only thing that let me kill the Rawr deathclaw. When shit hits the fan, Compliance Regulator has your back. I carry it on every build, and it's the only energy pistol that i use in lategame. There's also Sonic Emitter - Revelation, but CompReg shoots 3x faster meaning it's more reliable with the crits.
