There is actually a special stat spread optimal for almost every build in the game. Its 7 strength, 5 perception, 8 endurance, 1 charisma, 5 intelligence, 6 agility, and 8 luck. Slight modifications can be made based on the build such as higher agility for vats builds, 1 luck for explosive builds, and high charisma for follower builds. Keep in mind perception actually has no effect on vats accuracy as it is bugged so there is no point going above 6 perception, and the health regen implant really isn't necessary at only 1hp per 10 minutes.
RIP Mitten Squad 🙏
"Kind message".
Challenge idea get every single unique weapon in Fallout New Vegas
could you try a Fallout run with only the classics? like the Tire Iron, (sorry I don't know the rest I'd guess that a .9 mm. is in there too.)
Or hell, maybe even a run as a Trenchgun weilding rat.
It's really cool being able to watch someone rise in challenge runs now that MittenSquad is gone. I don't think anyone will ever be able to replace him, but you help fill that gap in my heart.
rip mittensquad you will be missed
Respect to the OG may he rest in peace
I feel like this is in good hands now
I agree even if hes gone.He left a permanent memory on fallout YT community
You should check out Nerbit he does a lot of challenge runs. But you're right Paul of mitten squad was also my favourite challenge runner for these games.
The rat slayer is a must have for an early sniper build
Hell, it works for a later sniper build too, especially if you're going for a crit build.
thats a very cool tip man :)
The rats hit hard
i like you name
Ratslayer sniper build with Boones cap, graham's armor, and crit perks go hard.
For future reference, counterintuitive as this is, "Trigger discipline" is sort of a detriment for sniper builds because of the way accuracy works in NV.
Every weapon has a positive "bullet spread" value, and unsurprisingly, long-range rifles have extremely low spread to begin with. This makes the 20% better accuracy do almost nothing, while 20% slower fire rate is a very noticable nerf in many situations.
This also means that its counterpart fast shot is actually great for sniper builds. If a weapon has .05 bullet spread, youre getting 20% faster firing speed at the cost of raising the bullet spread to .06. An extremely generous tradeoff if you ask me.
we love you bro
I love how ironically fast shot helps snipers more. NV is a comedic game at its core, lol
Trigger Discipline does allow you to hit targets at a much greater distance in vats
@@karelpasek6284 Oh, that's a nice upside. I didn't know that cause I've never really used VATS at long range in this game. Really, I should do a VATS build sometime because I'm normally more of a point and click guy.
I always just take built to destroy because I'm a dopamine junkie
I don't see anyone else mentioning this, but if I recall correctly you don't actually pay the 2,000 caps to enter the Strip, the Securitron only checks to make sure you have them.
Was about to comment this too
I didn’t know that, but the easiest way into the strip for me at least is to hill the NCR soldier that warns you when you get to primm and steal his uniform. He’s separated from the rest of the NCR in primm, so they won’t aggro on you if you’re quick enough. Then you take that outfit, use it to board the monorail, and that’s that
@@I_am_box there’s a dead ncr soldier by the boulder trap on the path to black mountain, past the trap the way to the strip is clear of deathclaws
@@I_am_boxthere's a dead NCR trooper next to the entrance to the divide, in a cave to the left of it with some coyotes, sometimes he can have a service title on him, or a 10mm submachine gun and a couple other things
@@I_am_box There are a couple of NCR uniforms in one of the tents outside Primm too, no need to kill anyone
29:22 I’ve always loved that line coming from a man who has styled himself after Julius freaking Caesar. Yeah but no House is the one with a high opinion of himself. What an idiot lmao.
lol
Oh the kid john? his dad is a lawyer,hes soooo rich!(says the kid that owns half the town)
I love how the game constantly clowns on the legion, but since their leader has some charisma and speaks with conviction a bunch of people unironically support them lmao. I get it, the world's mess up and every faction sucks in their own ways, but that doesn't mean you should support the Roman larping fascists lmao
@@saudade7842 hey, just like modern politics!
@@saudade7842snuffles has a higher int than Caesar
If anyone is crazy enough to try this themselves, you should go with 9 Luck when you pick your SPECIAL stats (if you're using the same stats as Willow, I'd drain Strength since Ratslayer has a very low Strength requirement). Then stop at Novac and do Boone's quest to get the First Recon Beret, buy an implant to get to 10 Luck (if you need caps, just find a casino and play blackjack until they kick you out), and take the Finesse perk at level 10. This gets you a base critical hit chance of 20%. Ratslayer has a 5x critical hit chance multplier, which means every shot is now a critical hit that deals double damage.
im glad someone else pointed this out lol this guy picked horrible special stats for this build
I love that this game will not die. Really love how more and more people are appreciating the game. I bought it when it came out and remember it getting good enough reviews (noting it was extremely buggy) but it’s grown in appreciation over the years.
the game was always a masterpiece from a writing standpoint, it's only gotten better with mods for quality of life. It's aged well thanks to a thriving modding community.
so true br you have a good one
Loved the summoning salt ref. Great vid as always!
Awesome! Thank you!
You're a legend for picking that name, I doubt too many will get the reference, but I appreciate it way more than I should
Wrote a paper about her and she was one of a kind person. Wish more people knew about her story
Everyone said I should put chris kyle but I figured that people already knew him so I just hoped this would make some people google another incredible marksman from history.
@@WillowPlaysGames i thought it was a borderlands 2 reference lol
SPONSOR!!!!! GOOD JOB DUDE :)
THANKS!
Erections come from the heart and love comes from the brain. My heart isn't saying anything but my brain is
@@treyunzueta9031 that just means your down bad:)

WHY ARE WE SCREAMING!?!!!!?
Woah. Just realized your sub 50k subs. Thats actually wild considering the effort put into the playthrough, edits and script. And you have a very clear and consistent light hearted narator voice. Not the quality i would expect from a smaller channel. I hope to see you continue to grow and are rewarded for the effort.
honestly the channel has grown bigger and faster than I could of dreamed. I have been doing RUclips for 4 years, my other channel is only 5k subs but has 300+ uploads. this channel has been mind blowing and getting such kind comments just makes my day! you are beautiful and have a wonderful day!
Glad I stumbled upon your channel. I've enjoyed the effort you put into making these challenges thematic, interesting, and easy to watch. Keep up the great content!
we love you bro
Welcome to the Willow Fallout community ☺️
Laughed at the broc flower cave bit
Hope you're having a good day. You deserve it bro.
I'm surprised you didn't max out Lockpicking ASAP to pick up the Gobi Rifle.
I enjoy the slow progress of willow bringing more of their personality into each video
we love you bro
Fallout nv as a cowboy can only use weapons affected by the cowboy perk no stims only Food and drink and the sheriff or bounty hunter duster no drugs but coyote tobacco is fine
I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this vid! Loved the jokes and love that you gave nv a challenge run. Excited for the next one!
Also, your choice in montage music always top notch 👌🏼
Glad you enjoyed it so much!
I'm not sure who to complement, so I'll complement you, Willow. :) I think you make very fun and enjoyable content, and I am always glad to see your videos. ^^
glad to have ya as a viewer!
And I will compliment you. Thank you for being one of the few I’ve scrolled by thus far that actually listened to the text and said something nice. That’s nice
I'm late to the party, but I'm glad you took the time to search :> when you couldn't decide, it was very kind of you to compliment Willow instead. Have a lovely day :>
9:30 The Transition to the sponser was actually really well done. Nice Job
Thanks
Fun fact, Doc Mitchell is played by the same actor as General Tullius from Skyrim.
That makes so much sense. Tullius was one of my favorite characters, and one of the ones who actually stood out. His acting sold him too
Also fun fact - he played Col Tigh(sp?) in the Battlestar Galactia reboot
I really appreciate how you called the varmint rifle silencer a "suppressor."
It kinda bugs me that a game with this many guns in it doesn't know the difference.
I hope you have a lovely day! Best wishes!
@@Thundrfox aww thank you!
What's the difference? As far as I can tell those are the same thing with the only difference being one name is just more accurate to the actual functionality
@@noconsequence4486 (as far as I know) in terms of how people use the word? Absolutely nothing.
It's just technically more correct. Like you said, one is more accurate to what it does functionally. I think there's history behind it involving them originally being called "silencers" but people coined the term "suppressors" for the sake of not false advertising. Also movies and games make the bloody things why too quiet and it ruins the immersion for some of us.
The way I see it, it's just something small enough you don't want to make a big deal about but large enough it annoys the fire out of you.
Ive been wanting new vegas content from you so bad!!! Im so excited!!
Hope you enjoyed!
You know its always fun seeing Bathesda-based game challenge runs as much of a buggy mess they can be it can still be quite the watch love your work so far Willow
glad you enjoy the runs!
@WillowPlaysGames though I could do without it being an evil run, imho
@@RikouHogashi why? It's just a game. None of the decisions in it matters or affect who a person is. I'm just curious cause I never understood people disliking the evil route in games! Thanks for the comment!
@@WillowPlaysGames perhaps its a matter of how one plays i tend to project myself and my morality over escaping from everything its just my opinion though its all good
U loved this play through and it shows!!! Love the vids! U got a loyal follower now =)
Welcome aboard! glad my love for these videos shows through!
War Thunder is free because it costs you your soul.
"JOEY! If you play the game, you lose your sooooul!!"
🥃 A toast to MittenSquad. And may Willow find great success! This is where the real game begins.
He’s not wrong about Cazadors. Give me Deathclaws before I run into a single Cazador.
Willow I don't know if you will ever see this comment but here are some things about your modlist:
-NVAC is outdated, use new vegas tick fix (nvtf) and 4gb patcher insted
-B42 scopes is just a better version of NVTS
-NMC large pack is waaay to large for new vegas-switch to low you won't notice any diffrence anyways
-Follow Viva New Vegas guide for more stability and QOL mods
EDIT: There are some other animation mods like New vegas clean animations(normal version and reborn), hits animations and anniversary animtion pack-would be cool if you check them for other videos
Will keep it in mind for next time
Love it. Thanks Willow
Glad you like it!
Good job with the run, willow. Sad that you werent able to side with ncr since they have some really cool armor, and you can spare the bhood
was a fun time running legion ngl, being the bad guy makes choices so easy.
12:46 Pro tip on this area: before passing through if you want to do this smoother you can sneak up the ridge to the south I believe? You should be able to sneak past the bighorners up there, they'll show up as hostile but they shouldn't go out of their way to attack you if you keep your distance. Once past them there's nothing between you and the two Vipers east of these bighorners. At this distance the other Vipers to the northern hill won't aggro to you. I advise starting this engagement with a sneak attack then once you finish these two off, if you have a decent scoped weapon you should be able to get at least one sneak crit off the northern Vipers across the road.
Lyudmila Pavlichenko... i see a man of culture here hahahahahah love the vid gl in the future
i was just thinking of this as a challenge run!! hype😸
I hope you're having a good day. You deserve it!
Looks really painful experience also you can modded the hunting rifle into sniper from gra vendor.
There is gobi scout witch is powerful but it requires 100 lockpick skill.
0:49 had a good day cause of you and your Videos❤ thanks for that
Great video. I'm glad i stumbled across your channel.
Thanks for watching!
Don’t waste special points on charisma in NV much more worth it to have the extra intelligence or strength or something else over the initial small boost to speech
I tend to take it for RP purposes.
LOL The Summoning Salt bit!!!
Ah yes.This intro brings alot of memories. The most memorable thing from this game's intro is that Chandler (Benny) from "Friends" kills you (nearly) XD
Lol. This is basically how I play the game, though snipers still carry a side arm sometimes, so I don't mind using a .45 or 9mm.
Everybody gangsta 'till they hear those spurs go "jingle jangle jingle."
The only mod I play New Vegas with every time is the "Two bears high-fiving" mod so I can answer the inkblot test correctly.
Is there a version where it says two ninjas/samurai instead? 😂
That video makes me wanting to play New Vegas the 100th time again ❤
W summoning salt reference willow
Thanks lol
I've been watching Summoning Salt non-stop the last two weeks, so coming across this and hearing the shift in music and tone really threw me for a loop! Love it!
On one play through I stealth sniped Benny from the upstairs I jumped on a table. One shot to my surprise the guards stayed unaware and we're still passive I walked down approached. Looted benny then talked to them simple banter.
Good to see success coming to those who deserve it. Keep it up brother :))
thank you!
Good job do more on this game
Congratulations on the sponsorship!! You are the first channel i became a member of thought i would support my favorite RUclipsr❤
Glad to have you as a member! Thanks for the support and hope the content continues to entertain!
We definitely need a robot only challenge (crafting them with the automatron dlc stuff) because I’m actually curious just how difficult it’ll be to clear the game only using them.
LETS GOOO More new vegas and willow
let's gooo!
I hope u see this wiilow, ur videos are actually so great, very nice for binge watching
I dare to say I saw it! Thank you bunches!
Awesome video as always Willow! Love to see you branching out! Congrats on the sponsor!
P.S. - You need to update the description with the proper mod list... the Fallout 4 Unofficial Patch being applied probably didn't help your game not crashing 😂
I hope your day is good asf today, internet stranger
Fallout 4 Script Extender instead of NVSE too 😆
Thanks! It's fixed!
Nice job. Personally, I would have put a bit of a bigger focus on luck and stealth early on, and made a dash for the Ratslayer. On higher difficulty it is a bitch to get but I think speedrunning through the cave and grabbing it is a must for a sniper build.
love these bc it reminds me of mittensquad
but no vats is crazy
My first few runs people complained to no end that I used vats too much so I just banned it in future runs
Had to check out another sniper video from you 😂 for sure about to fall asleep to a playlist or something on your channel. Enjoy the view time 🤙i shall return.
That was one of the first things that surprised me when I started getting traction. The number of people falling asleep watching my vids is crazy to me. But then I realized I do the same with a few creators. Also I'm glad you chose to subscribe and stick around! And your feedback is quite nice in the reply on my other comment!
You should of gotten gobi scout campaign rifle in the shack above cottonwood cove
Thanks for going through this so I can eat my breakfast in peace :-)
fun fact when sunny smiles gives you the varmet rifle if you drop your 30 rounds she give you 30 more the you pick up your rounds = 60 then do the mini quest i think she gives another 60 so 120 lol .. i just love tossing the mag at her feet and being like ops idk what happened to my ammo lmao
Personally, I love rushing Cottonwood Cove with sniper builds to get Gobi scout rifle as soon as possible. Thanks to better crit DMG than normal sniper rifle, it is basically the end game weapon that you can get reasonably quickly is you increase your lock picking to 100.
“Ordering me to go” seemed intentional coming after the pizza man pun but that would be crazy lol
Did you put any though into my suggestion for a vampire run in fallout 4?
Only be out at night between 6:00 pm and 6:am with night person perk and cannibal
(No stimpacks because they look like crosses)
The run is a failure from minute one. You will always exit the vault during the day. Even ignoring that I just don't find the concept difficult, more so tedious with having to waste half the time of the run hiding inside, also obsessing over the in game clock isn't difficult or interesting. Don't get me wrong, it's still on the list and members could vote for it one day but unless there's something added to it or changed with how it would work it's a bit of an odd one to make. Thank you for the suggestion and please don't let this discourage you from suggesting other runs! I just like being honest. You're beautiful and thank you for the comment!
I hope you know how excited I was to see your character's name. Fills my Slavic heart with joy
during the final dungeon I got the lord of death perk for surpassing 200 kills, so accurate historical video
The New Vegas challenges begin let's goooooo!
let's gooo!
Your content is so good that i never remember that you are a relatively small Chanel, Man i Just wanted to say congrats for the sponsor
Thanks a ton!
The top floor rap got the sub 😂
Hey willow just started watching you yesterday and was wondering where you stream?
on RUclips!
Let's go no sleep to watch this video it's 230 in the morning
That's Dedication!
Same, except it's 4 for me.
I'm just curious, can I get a list of the mods you have? They make the game look better, and I want to try some of them out.
hey those dumb jokes made me lol too lol
As soon as I heard the music I had to double check I didn't swap to a summoning salt video
lol
Hey, what mod are you using for the new animations?
The most fun I’ve had in New Vegas is doing an explosives run. Deathclaws get real slow when their legs injured. Just an idea.
lets goo new willow video, despite fallout 4 being a great game fallout nv is also awesome so i am excited to see it
Ive never modded nv but that 9mm scope with variable zoom is actually kinda neat, not super invasive either looks straight up like it could have been in-game. Crazed snipers, their the hardest to watch out for... cause you'll never see them.
The scope itself isn't a mod. The variable zoom and see through scope is
Yeah it's doing it to all the scopes isn't it, I just worded that bad.
Ngl this is probably one of the more forgiving and easier challenges especially if you use something like a silenced .22 with 10 luck because armoured or not, it will result in either 1 shotting to the body or just dealing insane damage
Can't use the .22 it doesn't have a scope
I hope you are all having a great day good people.
Also I think Medium and heavy armor are somewhat detrimental to a good sniper build. Light armor has a crap load of benefits and perks related to it and precision and a quick getaway matter the most when youre sniping
You're doing Paul proud me thinks 👍
Great job on the sponsor.
god do i love people with computers for heads and big hoodies. gotta be one of my favorite genders.
lol
same lmao
Fallout New Vegas crashing right after the character creation is the most Fallout New Vegas ever!
Nice video. 👍
Thanks 👍
"aaaaand the game crashes."
My god this IS a legit fnv run
Would love to see more new vegas content👍
there will be more
First thank you very much for your videos, I'm sure that's a lot of work.
I hope you would think about playing as Imperial guardsman from 40k, there aresome mods for this, you can choose from fallout 4 or new vegas, both have mods for this but fallout4 has better options
The dumb jokes and you laughing at them was actually nice, maybe its just me but I wouldnt mind more of them (just not excessive)
there will be more of them, probably at the same rate or a little less than this one had them.
@@WillowPlaysGames if its natural its fine, i think its the relaxed nature that makes them work, for me at least :)
@@james14294 it is natural. Most of the bits in this video were me just realizing that something I said was silly and laughing at it. Normally I would change it to be less silly cause I was being super serious about the videos ^^
I wonder if he realized he could use hellos one as a weapon, cause technically it's a scoped weapon. I mean it uses a laser to aquire it's target, but a lenses is used, so.....
I am having a good day, Willow. My boss gave me a birthday present.
Happy birthday!
surprised no RUclipsr uses Viva New Vegas. Game never crashes for me after using it
Got love the games physics loseing it shit during the whole intro
I would of grabed the named rifle from the vault the boomers came from for a fast shooting weapon with a scope.
personally would have used B42 Optics instead of True Scopes as Optics gives true dual rendering scopes (just have to do some tweaking when you get one when using other weapon animations), dual rendering meaning what is in your scope is zoomed but around your scope is your set FOV given I try to make my load orders as immersive as possible while not changing too much of the combat balance, and to be clear I just like suggesting alternate mods to ones and am not bashing on you using True Scopes
Honestly, I barely spend any time on my mods. I just go with the first thing that works and doesn't feel too disruptive to the base game. I tried 2 scope mods and this was the one that actually worked so it's what I used. Thanks for the suggestion, I don't think I'll be using it as I never opt for scopes of my own volition but if I do need a scope mod again I'll def look into it
Lol the game crashing rivht at the start is peak NV content
does anyone know what the mod for the scope is?
so a idea for a run. offered/reward items only. only using quest rewards or "offered" gear (modify freely once gotten if so). with fo4 or skyrim in mind start not too rough tho mostly the rewards are kinda meh or mid range so can boost early stages but drop off if one dont modify them and even then prob not as as good as the loot or others one can get. ( definition of quest reward. well thats easy you get it as a reward for doing a quest its yours to use freely. "offered" might be iffy but general idea (to not fully softlock one on such a run) (hands count they are yours use them. offered by others is if they tell you to either use it or that its yours to use if you want. or telling you can use it. skyrim that does make intro bit easier. as both paths does point out to grab gear to use. so bit of armour n atleast a weapon to start. if one rush story next option be any quest reward prob be axe of whiterun or curiass etc. so a tiny upgrade. but you the gist is told. for fo4 atleast it eb fist only til fastest weapon be prob concord preston telling you to use the laser musket. and yes it also include the offer of using power armour and minigun shortly after but supplies rather rare to keep them for the full run all the time. hope it wasnt too messy a thingy. but my idea for a run :)
and the idea is to only use those items your get as reward or offered to use. but any loot is open to grab to "prosper" and use to improvethe items one did get from the run. so can loot anything just limit on what you use as such. and yes im aware that makes it be aither vault suit or power armour only until you get armour parts as reward xD tho possible to semi hunt cores to keep power armour even if its not a sneak or anything. and yes sneak be cleared and ok for such a run. i know you lately "banned" sneak perks etc. this run prob might need you to let that slide. spec if on survival mode.

This is the first video I've seen of yours so I don't know what the typical amount of challenge you tend to go for is, so I was wondering if there's any reason you don't use JSawyer for this considering it makes hardcore mode a little closer to the original vision, as well as not giving you all the DLC packs at the start of the game but instead in dead drop locations.
My guess is it would make a one-off run just arbitrarily longer?
no idea what jsawyer even is, if it's a balance mod I don't use those, I let the game be balanced the way it is shipped by the devs.
@@WillowPlaysGames it's a mod made by the director of Fallout New Vegas that changes some mechanics to be the way they were intended to be, because NV was rushed and shipped with a ton of cut content and balance points
trigger discipline is for automatics, and fast shot is for precisions weapons (like the sniper rifles)
Seeing such a fun challenge run really isn't helping my all-consuming urge to install New Vegas with a bunch of mods and play it yet again.
Btw, if you're reading this, have a wonderful day!
you have a fantastic day. because after all....
when in rome...
Before watching the video what I would do is dash to ratslayer this would provide me with an easy to feed and find powerful weapon I would then go and grab riot gear from lonesome road this would let me get the all American
