Something Turtle didn't explain: The reason why you want both glowing meat steak and yao guai ribs (and mutant hound chops too) is because the "melee damage +x%" effect for whatever reason actually stacks with each other. Whereas normally you can only get a boost to one stat for each consumable you use, if you take all three of those with all the right mutations you get +75% damage (well, +25% three times because of how buff stacking works but you know what I mean). That's why food builds and carnivore are so important for any melee builds
Hey Turtle, so glad to see a new full health unarmed build on the channel. It's what I've been running on my main since the start of the game and it's just so cozy and chill. One thing I think might be helpful is to include a variant of the build for non-super high levels that includes intelligence and what exp gain items it uses (like canned meat stew and tasty squirrel stew for carnivores) for players who are interested in the build but aren't yet high enough level to have all the legendary perks unlocked
On my unarmed I use Cola nut, and Party boy. I carry around a few Nuka Dark and with both perks I’m getting +6 strength and +6 endurance. Add Chem fiend and Psychobuff for +3 strength, +3 endurance and + 25% damage. A total of +9 strength and +9 endurance +25% damage makes for a mighty big punch. 😃
Nice one Turtle. My full health build is similar, but I'm using ghoulish and what rads instead of solar powered and taking one for the team. I also use mixed Thorn still and its poison is a nice boost and I'm plenty tanky. I do switch to a SS set when I go low health for leveling. Also find no need for good with salt since there are so many common meat buffs around that I'm never running out.

With tenderizer being fixed so you can stack up 40% damage again railing field should be carrying a shotgun. You can use the shotgun per card in agility to take down scorch beast but also when you’re running up to something like I’ll be more thorough Scarface, your pop it once with the shotgun giving you 40% tenderizer damage multiplicatively, and then switch to million pound down you’ll have a dad before the tenderizer wears off

Id like to personally thank you for this build, I’m playing as a chem/alcohol tweaker who has a jackhammer fist from all the drug abuse and radiation and this will work wonderful!
Alternatively, you could just drop four points of adrenaline pick up sneak escape artist, and then ricochet doesn’t matter I’m adamantine Skelton probably won’t matter because you’ll be stuffing and nothing will be shooting at you and you’ll be doing double damage when you hit something hurry up it’s not really double damage but you’ll be getting the two times damage boost from stealth which yes relayer case it’s not actually double damage. It does translate NFL think much less than 200% damage damage
I noticed that you use martial artist in this build. That card specifically calls out melee weapons. I was under the impression that weapons that were gauntlet-based (power fist, deathclaw gauntlet, and their 76 variants) were considered unarmed weapons. Are unarmed weapons a subset of melee weapons for the purposes of cards?
I just recently dropped Exploding Palm on my melee build. I couldn't farm horde events with it active :( and the explosions do get annoying. I switched it out for legendary luck and boosted my vats crits and lucky clover since grim reaper is not really working out for me.
Just had a V/SS/+1S gauntlet drop for me. I have never really enjoyed unarmed builds but since I can’t trade them I feel obligated to do a build since it’s such a good weapon
I always go with maxed out 15 endurance even if I use the legendary car line somewhere else, I still max out endurance and you’re missing Adamamtium skeleton, which is critical to Melee
I'm curious how this weapon performs after the science changes now. Will it be able to do more than the Bear Arm or Ogua Gauntlet now? Does it even compare? I feel like it'd probably do at least similar damage if not a little more. Use the Anti Armor legendary effect and shock pads with the science perks.
Ive had a similar build for around a year - a power armour unarmed juggernaut.....good fun but little too slow! Punching everything to death...but quite cumbersome and lacks the agility better suited to melee.
Turtle this is a common misconception hack and slash is not an explosion and uses an animation that looks like an explosion, but it is not hack and slash is a boy stick AOE, dealing 100% of the damage that you dealt to the target as an AOE so you do 200% damage to your target And 100% of what you just have to target where have an area but it is not an explosion it’s not affected by demo expert. I don’t even have that affect the size of it is affected by grenadier but the damage is definitely not if you hit the target for 300 damage you’re going to do 600 damage to the target and 300 damage in any way around you and it’s not gonna be affected by demo expert
With overeaters good Doggy is nice for keeping hunger up for cheap with carnivore. Also I would use cola nut for healing, its far too good. Forgot about stimpacks/radaway and embrace the cola life.
Conversely, exploring palm collateral damage all the other ones that cause an explosion they are actual explosions. They are actually affected by demo, expert and grenadier and by the way home I agree with you the car for explosions in the face or annoying, but exploring bomb goes off a lot I mean it’s a it’s a 20% chance to go off each time you hit a target, so it goes off a lot. I don’t know how the damage is calculated except to say that Grenadier expands the range and demo expert increases in the same with collateral damage aura. I was arranged one that you can fart Matt range, and it blows up those also are affected by Grenadier and demo extra pack and flash is fixed damage. FaceTime your damage to the target again if you hit the target for 300 damage haircut flash add 300 to the target in slashes the area with 300 and it’s ballistic. it’s not explosive it’s ballistic damage.
love your videos and this build but I have a question: I got a vampire, 40& swing speed level 50 deatclaw gauntlet(with the extra claw mod in case that matters) is that good enough until I can get those settler gauntlet or is a settler gauntlet with other legendary effects better?
It occurs to me turtle that if you’re running exploding bomb I have used it and I agree with you I don’t like the explosions at all from either of them and watch her entire view but it occurs to me that the only effective way to use those exploding Mili attacks are if your using Vance and connection with gunfu that way you know you’re killed out why you get an explosion it just Vance switches to the next target get the trigger and it’s gonna teleport you right to it if there’s a trigger in right now be in at target in range and so you don’t have to see what you’re doing I guess it’s the point because you’re right those explosions in your face they blind you they’re smoke everywhere and it’s still will to keep targeting things unless you’re using vats
Correct me if i’m wrong, but does Grenadier actually work with Hack N Slash? I know it shows a bigger explosion radius, but i thought it was just a visual effect and doesn’t actually increase the explosion range, I know Grenadier works with Exploding Palm, but swear it never worked with Hack N Slash.
I like this type of build a lot. If I may suggest though, the legendary perk "Retribution" is not something I would toss away. Based on the final build, the 2 bonuses that the perk provides can have quite an impact: - The AP regen is very solid and works on any build, plus because of the generous AP regen, it will allow us to easily incorporate "Dodgy" into the build, granting us much more tankiness. - The HP regen, while not so great for full health builds, it is still solid and will keep you alive. This bonus however really shines on low health builds because you will be much tankier and the regen. bonus is better scaled with low HP. Most enemies from a group will have some melee attackers for you to occasionally proc retribution, but even against ranged enemies, you will still be able to force them into melee of course.
is this build still do-able with the enemies hitting a little harder? and if so which legendary perks should i look to max first? im only lvl 145 but i love melee builds
Right I agree the past explosions are a pain in the ass, but exploring Paul is the way to go not hack and slash nowadays looting being what it is that you’re gonna area loot, somebody’s getting all blown up all over the place don’t matter and you don’t need to worry about events of passive thing that just happens so when you’re coloring a bunch of our goals or you’re out of storage beast clearing, bunch of a scorched that shits just going off a lot like it has a one and five chance to go off each time you had something that’s a pretty good chance. It happens a lot. I’ve tried that I’ve used it it’s annoying as hell like you say that explosive cloudy fog back towards your vision every time it goes off as a pain in the ass but it’s a very effective tool when you’re running demo expert and grenadier.
IMHO it's way to much focused on a one specific mob type that happens to fly. I'm running a melee build and most problems make fast firing turrets (laser) and sometimes those flying ones but they land either way. For turrets (and robots) troubleshooter's weapon will work, while for Scorchebeast Zealot's legendary. Add ultracite ammo for it and either way you either nuke the turrret or force the scorchebeast to land (if it won't on a timer). Silenced weapon for turrets to buy some time while for Scorched anything. Hard hitting single shot probably would best... and melee everything else.
The legendary perk you chose is not an explosion. It’s not affected by grenadier or demo expert for that matter it’s simply based on your base damage whatever your damages, you do that much damage to additional damage to the target and that much damage to the AOE arena around the target grenadier doesn’t affect the size of it, nor does demo expert affect the strength of it and less you lose unless you use exploding palm or one of the other every other exploding. A fact, is an actual explosion affected by grenadier and demo expert but not the one you chose. I still put it on there though because I assume you’re going to carry a few grenades you know I carry 2030 nucha grenades all the time for when I need to nuke something or if I just want to tag everything.
Hello! Just wondering. I watched one of your videos from last year and it mentioned that brawlers was better, so is this no longer the case? Also, does having both arms with weighted mod stack with each other?
@AngryTurtle ik this is am older video but do you have an updated version of this build. I'm getting back into the game and I have alot of questions because I'm reading different things from different people and I'm unaware of what's been nerfed and buffed . like I heard any armor % pen past incisor is soft capped so why is 50% armor pen legendary effect good ?
"Constant explosions in your face" If only Bugthesda would have followed up on the removal of Legacies. It would have been less of a pain and a viable Legendary perk to use.
Mr angry turle sama. I was wondering since im a melee stealth. Why use the swift magazine? I already have the demon bonus. Does that pistol receive power from per gunslinger or guerrilla? Btw. Compensator or silencer? I mean yes im stealth but is mainly to clear ceiling from laser turrets. But i think with a silencer i wont alert the rest of the enemies. Enlight me, master *the force theme from star wars kicks in*
I use something close to this. But mine is kinda funny. Definitely using hack and slash and explosive palm. Combine with explosive expert and explosive radius. Big damage always. The explosive smoke is a little annoying. Then the What’s rads legendary perk and ghoulish perk make for insane heals. I walk into rad zones in my regular armor no problem. Lol
Nice alternative to low health. I noticed lately no Empath on your builds. Previously Empath + herd mentality + public teams + strange in numbers + class freak there was no downside. Has something changed?
@@AngryTurtle and to make a melee xp grind build, how would you go about that ? Love your videos , i enjoy them all and have tried loads of builds from you and always have fun with them
Turtle him instead of the pistol you’re using you could also use a gamma gun with the repeater those things are incredible at crippling already and then add you know the crippling Pistola card
I know it is a necro to post this, but I am am always thinking of explosives. Get an instigating pistol and throw instigating grenades. May need to quick swap demo expert. I just enjoy throwing away grenades explosively.
I probably said this before but no it doesn’t turtle 20% is 20%. It doesn’t translate into anything there’s no diminishing returns what it doesn’t do is multiplicatively add up to more than 20% if you have multiple items but the minimum you’re going to get out of it is 20% more damage, any damage increase is obviously going to be affected by the resistant says the damage reductions in whatever of the target regardless of where the damage increase comes from bloody mess iron fist they both give you 20 well 15 and 20% respectively if you max the perk card or a. The thing is and I see you and many others reference damage increases this way you pretend like getting say 20% more damage from strength for instance, is better than getting it from a perk card and yes in in a way it is because then you can use those three points or whatever on the perk card somewhere else but if you’re building a melee build, there really isn’t a lot of things you need and strength, I mean OK that’s that’s not true either there are specific things that you need in strength and you don’t need other things traveling pharmacy is nice but you can put it on your armor. Then you can put the food weight perk in agility JoJo if he has access space that you just want to fill up with points because do you want 15 agility for a melee build you want 15 agility so your evasive is maxed out but in strength you you literally want iron fist, incisor, martial artist, blocker, and barbarian. All of them maxed out and that 20% will add to each of the other damage boffs and ultimately you’ll end up with something like 400 500% damage increase when you get done between strenhth specially if you go Lowell Fleming, it’s easy because of you know unyielding but if you’re full health and you’re not wearing unyielding, you can easily get up to like 400% damage increase and it’s 400%. It’s not some fraction of 400% you’re getting the full 400% which is then going to be reduced when you attack something by its resistance as in it’s damage reductions but if you start out at 100% it’s still going to get reduced but it’s gonna go much lower to be fair post patch you want as many damage buffs as you can squeeze in on a melee build in order to just be competitive or get close to competitive with other bills or you could just throw on a chainsaw going to first person mode and you know I’ll get like four or five times the attack rate because this game is buggy as shit
Cheryl, you’re already taken modern renegade right so why not swap modern renegade for the shotgun one now I can’t think what it’s called and skip point in perception that you’re wasting a concentrated fire and Carey I’ve got for shaker which is really good at prep why are we really really good, but I just tested it the other day and swap ground my shredder warrior armor belt but I mean I rather things that other Thompson in the process I had no luck car for AAA in staggering and then I realize the shark on one does light 30% chance to crumble so I move those three points from locking over to agility and added the harm chakra card and I can bring down the scorch beast in light. I will not have any rounds really just shoot at it for a few seconds and it lands and dies for the shredder
No turtle it doesn’t translate anything it’s exactly 20% damage increase. There’s no translating of damage 20% is 20%. Yes it has to go against you know the enemies armor and get around enemies reductions but it’s still 20% more than you had before it doesn’t translate into 4% or whatever in the same one with a bloody message to a simple 15% additive damage boost at the end of the day those two are adding 35% to every head with your arm on our melee weapon or any of the body mass actually works very manly weapon but on an alarm build those are heading 35%. Everything adds exactly what it looks like it’s adding what it doesn’t do anymore is at the increase numbers from adding 20% and then telling us some of that, and adding 15% and taking the sound of that and adding 25% of taking us some of that that’s why multiplicative reason why you end up with a higher number than 20% With multiplicative damage but when it aired of damage you’re adding exactly the amount on the car 20% which will obviously both kinds will then be modified by the targets resistances but you’re still out you’re still starting out add an extra 20% so you know you want your damage bus it possible to be multiplicative do you want your damage deboss? Why can’t they are worth the reason it still multiplicative yes because multiplicative is less advantageous if you have two additive damage deep us like an anti-armor weapon And a incisor heading down together would give you over 100% armor penetration by making them multiplicative gives you something much less in the 80s because it does one calculation Texas Sam MN does the other calculation and you end up with something in the 80s instead of it being well over 100%, so Darren Steve bars are still multiplicative Damage bars are all added here. I think all what does wine I think they’re all added out for a while we have found that we’re still multiplicative, but I think they’re all additive now and to be fair for balancing purposes that makes things easier having a mixture of additive and multiplicative damage bars, or do you even just all multiplicative makes it tough, and the reason Malay is yeah I’m gonna fuck the worst air Mac calculation is because we had the Malay players have the most boss right I mean everybody’s using a green or action and a little house build button and the van talent and twisted muscle Joe Moore 25% multiplicative boss that only Malay or on our mailing got That there are others melee took the biggest hit in the damage. Shah calculation when we went to additive because we had the most multiplicative buffs so we saw the biggest pet door damage. I mean basically the difference between additive and multiplicative is a multiplicative keeps taking the sum of the last calculation Adding to that number where is the additive? It just adds all of us together at once and does the calculation ones so the outcome when you have numerous bus going on is much worse for additive but it’s still living 700% damage increase that’s what you get. If you wanna say anything translate, you have to say that up 75% multiplicative buff stack with another multiplicative bath stacks up two more than the sum total of those boss but the other way around and I by the way I think that Malay needs to have a couple of those multiplicative parsley, talented and twisted muscle need to be made multiplicative again
Doesn’t company G give you a berry jam and doesn’t I’m pretty sure it doesn’t matter with your herbivore or carnivore I’m not positive on that pole barn but I think company day works
Foreign armor is still really useful turtle it may not be stacking up five bleeds which you never really were doing that with the on arm build anyway but when you’re fighting for instance ghouls and they’re all attacking you they’re all ending up with a bleed on them that’s 250 damage And honestly yeah resistance is don’t mean shit you know blacker and barbarian ironclad and evasive and then whatever else you want I am Anna honor me the character I always run the entire on our Mili you know blocker barbarian iron fist incisor in martial artist and then in order to Carey Kansai run our canvas backpack and then worry about the food in agility and lock then you get the the most bass damage out of the weapon and you get to the most resistance is so it really doesn’t matter if you get less resistance with thorn armor but what you do get is when you get mob by a crowd they’re all bleeding
Please stop recommending dodgy. You need ap to swing your weapon or use your sheddar, or saws. In a crowd you will have no ap and will not be able to attack.
For Malay builds incisors the single most important card you can put on it’s the biggest damage boost I mean it’s not technically of damage boost it’s technically a deep off but it’s the single most important damage boost that you can put on you can forget about iron fist and just put on incisor and the damage boost will be significant
Blocker isn’t just for Mayleigh bills almost everybody gets swamped by critters at one point or another and blocker is good for I mean in my opinion blocker should be on every building washer like totally stealth

Alternatively, you could just drop four points of adrenaline pick up sneak escape artist, and then ricochet doesn’t matter I’m adamantine Skelton probably won’t matter because you’ll be stuffing and nothing will be shooting at you and you’ll be doing double damage when you hit something hurry up it’s not really double damage but you’ll be getting the two times damage boost from stealth which yes relayer case it’s not actually double damage. It does translate NFL think much less than 200% damage damage
I've been using the gauntlet with bloodied explosive weapons with far flung fireworks and hack'n'slash, it's so satisfying.
Exploding Palm is a good way to use those excess plasma grenades (with unarmed equiped), boom-boom.
I noticed that you use martial artist in this build. That card specifically calls out melee weapons. I was under the impression that weapons that were gauntlet-based (power fist, deathclaw gauntlet, and their 76 variants) were considered unarmed weapons. Are unarmed weapons a subset of melee weapons for the purposes of cards?
your last sentence answers your question ;)
Faster swing speed is so amazing on gauntlets…
I just recently dropped Exploding Palm on my melee build. I couldn't farm horde events with it active :( and the explosions do get annoying. I switched it out for legendary luck and boosted my vats crits and lucky clover since grim reaper is not really working out for me.
Just had a V/SS/+1S gauntlet drop for me. I have never really enjoyed unarmed builds but since I can’t trade them I feel obligated to do a build since it’s such a good weapon
I always go with maxed out 15 endurance even if I use the legendary car line somewhere else, I still max out endurance and you’re missing Adamamtium skeleton, which is critical to Melee
I'm curious how this weapon performs after the science changes now. Will it be able to do more than the Bear Arm or Ogua Gauntlet now? Does it even compare? I feel like it'd probably do at least similar damage if not a little more. Use the Anti Armor legendary effect and shock pads with the science perks.
Ive had a similar build for around a year - a power armour unarmed juggernaut.....good fun but little too slow! Punching everything to death...but quite cumbersome and lacks the agility better suited to melee.
Turtle this is a common misconception hack and slash is not an explosion and uses an animation that looks like an explosion, but it is not hack and slash is a boy stick AOE, dealing 100% of the damage that you dealt to the target as an AOE so you do 200% damage to your target And 100% of what you just have to target where have an area but it is not an explosion it’s not affected by demo expert. I don’t even have that affect the size of it is affected by grenadier but the damage is definitely not if you hit the target for 300 damage you’re going to do 600 damage to the target and 300 damage in any way around you and it’s not gonna be affected by demo expert
With overeaters good Doggy is nice for keeping hunger up for cheap with carnivore. Also I would use cola nut for healing, its far too good. Forgot about stimpacks/radaway and embrace the cola life.
Conversely, exploring palm collateral damage all the other ones that cause an explosion they are actual explosions. They are actually affected by demo, expert and grenadier and by the way home I agree with you the car for explosions in the face or annoying, but exploring bomb goes off a lot I mean it’s a it’s a 20% chance to go off each time you hit a target, so it goes off a lot. I don’t know how the damage is calculated except to say that Grenadier expands the range and demo expert increases in the same with collateral damage aura. I was arranged one that you can fart Matt range, and it blows up those also are affected by Grenadier and demo extra pack and flash is fixed damage. FaceTime your damage to the target again if you hit the target for 300 damage haircut flash add 300 to the target in slashes the area with 300 and it’s ballistic. it’s not explosive it’s ballistic damage.
Tweaked auto receiver being counted as single shot only applies to the 10mm pistol, right?
yes
love your videos and this build but I have a question: I got a vampire, 40& swing speed level 50 deatclaw gauntlet(with the extra claw mod in case that matters) is that good enough until I can get those settler gauntlet or is a settler gauntlet with other legendary effects better?
keep it for sure gauntlet is silent so you can mess around with stealth and it's only a little bit less damage than gauntlet
@@AngryTurtle thank you for the info
It occurs to me turtle that if you’re running exploding bomb I have used it and I agree with you I don’t like the explosions at all from either of them and watch her entire view but it occurs to me that the only effective way to use those exploding Mili attacks are if your using Vance and connection with gunfu that way you know you’re killed out why you get an explosion it just Vance switches to the next target get the trigger and it’s gonna teleport you right to it if there’s a trigger in right now be in at target in range and so you don’t have to see what you’re doing I guess it’s the point because you’re right those explosions in your face they blind you they’re smoke everywhere and it’s still will to keep targeting things unless you’re using vats
Correct me if i’m wrong, but does Grenadier actually work with Hack N Slash? I know it shows a bigger explosion radius, but i thought it was just a visual effect and doesn’t actually increase the explosion range, I know Grenadier works with Exploding Palm, but swear it never worked with Hack N Slash.
now I'm not sure anymore 🧐
I like this type of build a lot. If I may suggest though, the legendary perk "Retribution" is not something I would toss away. Based on the final build, the 2 bonuses that the perk provides can have quite an impact:
- The AP regen is very solid and works on any build, plus because of the generous AP regen, it will allow us to easily incorporate "Dodgy" into the build, granting us much more tankiness.
- The HP regen, while not so great for full health builds, it is still solid and will keep you alive. This bonus however really shines on low health builds because you will be much tankier and the regen. bonus is better scaled with low HP.
Most enemies from a group will have some melee attackers for you to occasionally proc retribution, but even against ranged enemies, you will still be able to force them into melee of course.
Great video! Just what i was looking for!
is this build still do-able with the enemies hitting a little harder? and if so which legendary perks should i look to max first? im only lvl 145 but i love melee builds
put defence as priority and you will be fine, and in case of turrets those are currently deadly just hack them
@@AngryTurtle okay that is awesome ill try it :) is there a weapon ud reccomend before i can get the settlers gauntlet?
This is amazing, I have the perfect VSSS gauntlet I got from fasnacht, I will have to try out this build, but my carry weight will suffer
Right I agree the past explosions are a pain in the ass, but exploring Paul is the way to go not hack and slash nowadays looting being what it is that you’re gonna area loot, somebody’s getting all blown up all over the place don’t matter and you don’t need to worry about events of passive thing that just happens so when you’re coloring a bunch of our goals or you’re out of storage beast clearing, bunch of a scorched that shits just going off a lot like it has a one and five chance to go off each time you had something that’s a pretty good chance. It happens a lot. I’ve tried that I’ve used it it’s annoying as hell like you say that explosive cloudy fog back towards your vision every time it goes off as a pain in the ass but it’s a very effective tool when you’re running demo expert and grenadier.
Hell yeah, lets crack some skulls
IMHO it's way to much focused on a one specific mob type that happens to fly. I'm running a melee build and most problems make fast firing turrets (laser) and sometimes those flying ones but they land either way. For turrets (and robots) troubleshooter's weapon will work, while for Scorchebeast Zealot's legendary. Add ultracite ammo for it and either way you either nuke the turrret or force the scorchebeast to land (if it won't on a timer). Silenced weapon for turrets to buy some time while for Scorched anything. Hard hitting single shot probably would best... and melee everything else.
The legendary perk you chose is not an explosion. It’s not affected by grenadier or demo expert for that matter it’s simply based on your base damage whatever your damages, you do that much damage to additional damage to the target and that much damage to the AOE arena around the target grenadier doesn’t affect the size of it, nor does demo expert affect the strength of it and less you lose unless you use exploding palm or one of the other every other exploding. A fact, is an actual explosion affected by grenadier and demo expert but not the one you chose. I still put it on there though because I assume you’re going to carry a few grenades you know I carry 2030 nucha grenades all the time for when I need to nuke something or if I just want to tag everything.
I’m pretty sure Akin/is not affected by Grenadier as it is a balistic AOE.
I was not aware Vampire's made adamantine irrelevant.
Hello! Just wondering. I watched one of your videos from last year and it mentioned that brawlers was better, so is this no longer the case? Also, does having both arms with weighted mod stack with each other?
they nerfed brawlers and now those are almost the same and yes it stack
@AngryTurtle ik this is am older video but do you have an updated version of this build. I'm getting back into the game and I have alot of questions because I'm reading different things from different people and I'm unaware of what's been nerfed and buffed .
like I heard any armor % pen past incisor is soft capped so why is 50% armor pen legendary effect good ?
"Constant explosions in your face"
If only Bugthesda would have followed up on the removal of Legacies. It would have been less of a pain and a viable Legendary perk to use.
Thanks Turtle. We need more full health builds.
Does grenadier really work with hack and slash I have read is does not?
Switch out Solar Powered for Cola Nut and grab as many Nuka Cola Darks as you can. The buff stacking is ridiculous :O
Mr angry turle sama. I was wondering since im a melee stealth. Why use the swift magazine? I already have the demon bonus. Does that pistol receive power from per gunslinger or guerrilla? Btw. Compensator or silencer? I mean yes im stealth but is mainly to clear ceiling from laser turrets. But i think with a silencer i wont alert the rest of the enemies. Enlight me, master *the force theme from star wars kicks in*
swift is for lower ap cost and yes silencer
I use something close to this. But mine is kinda funny. Definitely using hack and slash and explosive palm. Combine with explosive expert and explosive radius. Big damage always. The explosive smoke is a little annoying. Then the What’s rads legendary perk and ghoulish perk make for insane heals. I walk into rad zones in my regular armor no problem. Lol
What alcohols would you recomend for this build?
whisky and liquid courage, cola alcohol if you as cola nuts perk
So looks interesting u think k it'll work well the unappreciated beserker?
How does the build work on events and operations?
Nice alternative to low health. I noticed lately no Empath on your builds. Previously Empath + herd mentality + public teams + strange in numbers + class freak there was no downside. Has something changed?
yes they mess up something two patches ago now speed demon makes you tanky
What are best foods and chems to use for melee ? Never done this but want to try, and armor if not over eaters what then ?
all melee damage meat
@@AngryTurtle and to make a melee xp grind build, how would you go about that ? Love your videos , i enjoy them all and have tried loads of builds from you and always have fun with them
I have a Q, could you add the legendary perk melee explosions when you kill enemy, to get even more explosions? Or does it excludes unarmed?
you can but I want less explosions 😅
@@AngryTurtle I love the explosions, and sometimes I put the weapon away and just rely on the Thorn, the explosions, and my fists lol
Turtle him instead of the pistol you’re using you could also use a gamma gun with the repeater those things are incredible at crippling already and then add you know the crippling Pistola card
What armor would you use while we farm SS on a melee alt?
the one with highest resistance that you have, heavy combat is tradable
I know it is a necro to post this, but I am am always thinking of explosives. Get an instigating pistol and throw instigating grenades. May need to quick swap demo expert. I just enjoy throwing away grenades explosively.
so why not iron clad? to make your self just a bit more tanky?
Nice build 👌🏻I’ll have to brush the cobwebs off my melee girl and give it a whirl
How do you get a gauntlet? I'm running a malee build but I'm using a power fist 👊🏼
from Samuel's
what dose the "Grenadier" perk do with a legendary perk? did not catch it.
bigger explosion
Mirelurk egg omelet gives AP regen for carnivores.
👍
I probably said this before but no it doesn’t turtle 20% is 20%. It doesn’t translate into anything there’s no diminishing returns what it doesn’t do is multiplicatively add up to more than 20% if you have multiple items but the minimum you’re going to get out of it is 20% more damage, any damage increase is obviously going to be affected by the resistant says the damage reductions in whatever of the target regardless of where the damage increase comes from bloody mess iron fist they both give you 20 well 15 and 20% respectively if you max the perk card or a. The thing is and I see you and many others reference damage increases this way you pretend like getting say 20% more damage from strength for instance, is better than getting it from a perk card and yes in in a way it is because then you can use those three points or whatever on the perk card somewhere else but if you’re building a melee build, there really isn’t a lot of things you need and strength, I mean OK that’s that’s not true either there are specific things that you need in strength and you don’t need other things traveling pharmacy is nice but you can put it on your armor. Then you can put the food weight perk in agility JoJo if he has access space that you just want to fill up with points because do you want 15 agility for a melee build you want 15 agility so your evasive is maxed out but in strength you you literally want iron fist, incisor, martial artist, blocker, and barbarian. All of them maxed out and that 20% will add to each of the other damage boffs and ultimately you’ll end up with something like 400 500% damage increase when you get done between strenhth specially if you go Lowell Fleming, it’s easy because of you know unyielding but if you’re full health and you’re not wearing unyielding, you can easily get up to like 400% damage increase and it’s 400%. It’s not some fraction of 400% you’re getting the full 400% which is then going to be reduced when you attack something by its resistance as in it’s damage reductions but if you start out at 100% it’s still going to get reduced but it’s gonna go much lower to be fair post patch you want as many damage buffs as you can squeeze in on a melee build in order to just be competitive or get close to competitive with other bills or you could just throw on a chainsaw going to first person mode and you know I’ll get like four or five times the attack rate because this game is buggy as shit
OMG explosive punches, mind blow.
Hey man. Havent watched the video yet. I will when im on my work break. But love your content. Turtle army! 🐢
Cheryl, you’re already taken modern renegade right so why not swap modern renegade for the shotgun one now I can’t think what it’s called and skip point in perception that you’re wasting a concentrated fire and Carey I’ve got for shaker which is really good at prep why are we really really good, but I just tested it the other day and swap ground my shredder warrior armor belt but I mean I rather things that other Thompson in the process I had no luck car for AAA in staggering and then I realize the shark on one does light 30% chance to crumble so I move those three points from locking over to agility and added the harm chakra card and I can bring down the scorch beast in light. I will not have any rounds really just shoot at it for a few seconds and it lands and dies for the shredder
I find VATS to be very flaky with melee. Stand right next to a mob and have 0% hit chance....lovely
No turtle it doesn’t translate anything it’s exactly 20% damage increase. There’s no translating of damage 20% is 20%. Yes it has to go against you know the enemies armor and get around enemies reductions but it’s still 20% more than you had before it doesn’t translate into 4% or whatever in the same one with a bloody message to a simple 15% additive damage boost at the end of the day those two are adding 35% to every head with your arm on our melee weapon or any of the body mass actually works very manly weapon but on an alarm build those are heading 35%. Everything adds exactly what it looks like it’s adding what it doesn’t do anymore is at the increase numbers from adding 20% and then telling us some of that, and adding 15% and taking the sound of that and adding 25% of taking us some of that that’s why multiplicative reason why you end up with a higher number than 20% With multiplicative damage but when it aired of damage you’re adding exactly the amount on the car 20% which will obviously both kinds will then be modified by the targets resistances but you’re still out you’re still starting out add an extra 20% so you know you want your damage bus it possible to be multiplicative do you want your damage deboss? Why can’t they are worth the reason it still multiplicative yes because multiplicative is less advantageous if you have two additive damage deep us like an anti-armor weapon And a incisor heading down together would give you over 100% armor penetration by making them multiplicative gives you something much less in the 80s because it does one calculation Texas Sam MN does the other calculation and you end up with something in the 80s instead of it being well over 100%, so Darren Steve bars are still multiplicative Damage bars are all added here. I think all what does wine I think they’re all added out for a while we have found that we’re still multiplicative, but I think they’re all additive now and to be fair for balancing purposes that makes things easier having a mixture of additive and multiplicative damage bars, or do you even just all multiplicative makes it tough, and the reason Malay is yeah I’m gonna fuck the worst air Mac calculation is because we had the Malay players have the most boss right I mean everybody’s using a green or action and a little house build button and the van talent and twisted muscle Joe Moore 25% multiplicative boss that only Malay or on our mailing got That there are others melee took the biggest hit in the damage. Shah calculation when we went to additive because we had the most multiplicative buffs so we saw the biggest pet door damage. I mean basically the difference between additive and multiplicative is a multiplicative keeps taking the sum of the last calculation Adding to that number where is the additive? It just adds all of us together at once and does the calculation ones so the outcome when you have numerous bus going on is much worse for additive but it’s still living 700% damage increase that’s what you get. If you wanna say anything translate, you have to say that up 75% multiplicative buff stack with another multiplicative bath stacks up two more than the sum total of those boss but the other way around and I by the way I think that Malay needs to have a couple of those multiplicative parsley, talented and twisted muscle need to be made multiplicative again
mole rat meat also, they spawn on my camp and give melee boost eigter strength or melee damage dont remember
“If you love those explosions in your face” PAUSE
Rip thorn armor 😔 next thing on my melee will be this, great video as always
Doesn’t company G give you a berry jam and doesn’t I’m pretty sure it doesn’t matter with your herbivore or carnivore I’m not positive on that pole barn but I think company day works
Foreign armor is still really useful turtle it may not be stacking up five bleeds which you never really were doing that with the on arm build anyway but when you’re fighting for instance ghouls and they’re all attacking you they’re all ending up with a bleed on them that’s 250 damage And honestly yeah resistance is don’t mean shit you know blacker and barbarian ironclad and evasive and then whatever else you want I am Anna honor me the character I always run the entire on our Mili you know blocker barbarian iron fist incisor in martial artist and then in order to Carey Kansai run our canvas backpack and then worry about the food in agility and lock then you get the the most bass damage out of the weapon and you get to the most resistance is so it really doesn’t matter if you get less resistance with thorn armor but what you do get is when you get mob by a crowd they’re all bleeding
Please stop recommending dodgy. You need ap to swing your weapon or use your sheddar, or saws. In a crowd you will have no ap and will not be able to attack.
What is the importance of counting as single shot?
accuracy
Could you do a crit melee build ? Herbivorer maybe?
NO WAY YOU ACTUALLY MADE A UNARMED HUILD WHICH I ASKED FOR 😁😁😁
How can i craft the power first punching mod?
buy plans from settlers with gold bullion
I loved this build! Now if only they would add the ballistic fist from new vegas so I can punch people with a sawn off shotgun.
Very interesting about that trigger module. Hhhmmm. Thank you
Kick the salt, and go for grim reaper to refresh AP on kills and neverending spav hits and extra tankiness with dodgy.
doesn't work with explosions
great vid. Does tweaked stil work
it was patched
@@AngryTurtle Man you are the best youtube. You are always super reponsive
For Malay builds incisors the single most important card you can put on it’s the biggest damage boost I mean it’s not technically of damage boost it’s technically a deep off but it’s the single most important damage boost that you can put on you can forget about iron fist and just put on incisor and the damage boost will be significant
Does Tweaked Automatic Receiver count as Gunslinger ?
yes
I'm an unarmed build and in my experience, Hack 'n Slash is severely overrated. I dropped it for extra SPECIAL.
Blocker isn’t just for Mayleigh bills almost everybody gets swamped by critters at one point or another and blocker is good for I mean in my opinion blocker should be on every building washer like totally stealth
about to push my mule into this build :D
Is herd mentality working at all if only you on the team?
yes
@@AngryTurtle thanks 😊
the king of iron fist tournament :)
Overall I agree with th build, but I still belive solar armor being the real best option for full hp builds
oh boi, gonna try this :3
I’m still just sad that power armour is incompatible with power fists. It feels like it’s supposed to happen.
Thanks for this, I GREATLY dislike bloodied builds.
Great build and I’m surprised how powerful it is at full health.
This is going to be my weird Build am going with werewolf builded am going used Unarmed nocturnal weapons and armor it my good idea 👍
Is this build outdated or does it still work
it works
