i think the best weapon is the rusty BB gun
I'm voting for the Rusty .32 pistol. Stops Deathclaws in their tracks. ;)
Derp Yang true
Derp Yang nah, the .32 pistol is where it's at fam
theawsomeman60 nope definitely the rusty .32 pistol
Derp Yang
What about vengeance? Its the best gatling laser. The damage is considerable lower with an average of 23.5 but it fires multiple times and instantly switches targets when an enemy is downed. With dragons maw you're sometimes forced to waste a show on a low health enemy. I can't confirm this but it does seem to stunlock enemies too.
Melee weapons also shouldn't be ruled out entirely. When you select your dweller to attack an enemy, the enemy will redirect its attack to the one with the melee weapon. Give that dweller a damage reduction pet and you got a pretty good strategy going.
Thanks, I'll definitely test out the Vengeance later today. The gun's target switching sounds like a helpful feature. :)
the vengeance is great for its switching target aspect... butt it easy to switch a maw user off of a near dead enemy to another target and switch anther dweller doing less damage to that near dead enemy... butt this micro managing can be annoying... >:(
The probl
Maaquchi but if you're sending people completely equipped with maws then that's still wasted damage
asdf qwer Agreed, plus. I have the Gatling laser and it's true.
I saw your comment about not playing anymore and wanted to let you know your videos are still helping people like myself who are new to the game. Really appreciate it.
You actually skipped the best weapon which in some situations is - Vengeance. The reason for this is it changes target after the kill. With dragon's maw or fire hydrant killing target with 1 hp makes you lose all remaining damage. Vengeance would just target another enemy and deal damage. MIRV divides damage among all targets which is less useful if you need to kill boss quickly.
Since this video came out I've used the Vengeance quite a bit more, and my opinion on the Dragons Maw still stands. I do plan on uploading a Vengeance V.S Dragons Maw episode of Vault Log, and I'll address the pros and cons of each in the upcoming episode.
I do agree that the Vengeance is better in some situations, but the situations that it excels in are fights against lower hp targets, and those don't really pose much of a threat to a fully-leveled team. The Deathclaw staggering is also helpful, but I've found that the Maw seems to eliminate them faster. I'll elaborate more in the forthcoming episode. Thanks for watching. :)
You are propably right. But damage of Dragon's Maw isnt that much higher. 1-3 more. Now consider Strength adds also bonus damage. Not sure how it works but the higher total damage is the more hits you need from Dragons Maw to offset damage loss in case of overkill to be more effective than Vengeance (lower monster's hp=more difference). Works vs Deathclaws but you don't meet them often. I guess its personal preference, quicker trash fights or better tough fights. Or just the looks (Vengeance looks cool) :)
MIRV is an oxymoron of itself. An AoE weapon should be most effective against larger groups of enemies, but the fact that it divides a fixed damage value amongst all enemies results in the MIRV becoming WEAKER the more enemies are involved.
smh
MIRV and other explosive weapons have amazing critical hits tho. Not only it deals damage to the one you target, but to everyone else in the room. When you hit 5x crit damage using Dragon's Mow, it kills the boss, but if you do 5x crit with MIRV, it kills the boss AND everyone else in that room.
And against weaker enemies you meet on some quests, you rather want splash than direct damage to clear the rooms quicker.
Maybe the best way to use MIRV is with +7 Luck outfit?
This makes me regret crafting over 10 mirvs and not using the junk for other weapons
I got a rust BB gun once.... I felt invincible ;D
Rusty BB Gun FTW. :p
Pressing X HECK YEA xD
Og
Kriegsmarine Königstiger that can do less damage than even fists
I got millions of that so does that mean... :O
Actually, I think the dragons maw is better for vault defense and MIRV is best for questing -- REASON ---> If you have three MIRVs you can attack all enemies in the room at once and do massive damage. But in my observation, Vengeance seems to have the highest attack rate because it fires for so long, its best for clearing quantities of small mobs.
That is why MIRV is also a must have for Vault entrance where you can have up to 6 enemies, but only 2 defenders.
Aaron Daniel Donaldson dragons maw is the best. Period
In vault defense the only thing that counts is the average damage output of the weapon and not the attack pattern (ever wonder why feral ghouls keep dying even when there's nobody firing at them)
I agree that Maw is best for vault defense. Best on door and best on most dwellers in other rooms.
I also agree that MIRV is best for questing, but only in some circumstances. There is no damage loss from switching targets. The critical damage is never wasted on single targets. But in a room with a very strong boss and multiple smaller mobs, the MIRV and MIRV criticals are wasted due to the even split of damage between all targets.
I think Maw for defense, and 2xMaw +1MIRV for quests is best for questing.
Why 2xMaw on quests? At higher levels having 2xMaw focussing on 1 mob at a time doubles the kill speed and reduces the enemy damage output faster. There is some overall damage output lost on switching targets, but the kill rate is a steady progression instead of delayed multi-kill.
your are absolutely correct. the only thing thats hard about the mirv is when you have 2 or more of them in a room, the room is shaking when the grenades hit, and if you get a chance to do a critical attack, its hard to click on the target with the room shaking so bad
I prefer Virgil's Rifle or Vengeance during Quests. They don't waste potential damage dealt as much since they spread the damage over multiple shots and can move on to the next live enemy during fire. With high agility stats, they can really cut down enemies fast.
I hate any variations of the institute rifle because of that tumble the dweller does between shots. Makes it hard to click on him when you have to re-target
EXACTLY
I must say I agree with you to a certain extent, but I found, having a Gatling is an asset, bc it regenerates very quickly, and once the energy being used at the time has killed its target it automatically contintue's on another subject.
I got the miss launcher at 20-30 dwellers at a lunchbox
I got the MIRV at 10 dwellers
when using melee weapons manually assigning a target is a must
In regards to the Fire Hydrant Bat if you change your attack target of the dweller using it the dweller will often switch places with another dweller, making it useful for changing who is taking damage at that present moment.
Yeah, but you can only change it for the one holding the bat
And lastly I always have three different weapons. that way I cover a wider scale of different defence patterns.
Great vid. Subbed. Do you plan on making a video for beginners? Like detailing the mechanics of vault combat vs. wasteland combat vs. quest combat. Also tips like maxing out endurance before leveling up your dwellers so they'll have high hp, and wearing endurance clothing while leveling up for extra hp.
I'm not planning a "beginners guide" per se, but I think the series will definitely have concepts that both beginners and veteran players will find helpful. That's the goal anyways. Thanks for subscribing! ;)
Pressing X,you should make a vid about rusty bb gun vs alpha deathclaw that would be a epic bossfight. Btw you can use whatever tank dwellers
Now that would be a lonnng boss fight. I almost want to do it just to see if it goes over 10 minutes. I wonder if 25 stimpacks would be enough....
Nice video keep it up
Thanks! The series now has 14 episodes, and more are on the way. :)
3 fire hydrant can attack the same enemy, you just have to manually target after they kill the original target. All splash damage types benefit highly from +damage pets. Just like fallout games melee weapons deal bonus damage when strength is increased, 10 max +7 from legendary military apparel plus a pet with +6 damage turns fire hydrant into a one hit kill on boss death claws.
You can select a melee character and target a new enemy. He will engage the new target and your ranged characters will move and continue shooting that target
There is a max amount of dwellers that can attack one target, that’s why they weren’t attacking when there was someone already attacking it.
I have never seen a real life fire hydrant bat.
can you also make a video on exploring
what outfit to use
how many days it will explore
how to get the best junks
For missions I give one fire hydrant, one dragon’s maw and one vengeance, because the bat is good for tanking and redirecting the damage to other, the maw makes a good damage, but vengeance fires multiple times, so that it’s shoots may also be redirected to other mob during its fire turn, as the maw shoots a single heavy shot.
I just started playing this game so forgive the late timing. I recommend one Dragon's Maw (or Vengeance) and two MIRV's for fast annihilation of enemies on quests. The MIRV's damage will assist the person with the Dragon's Maw when damaging ALL enemies. When the character with the Dragon's Maw switches to another target after killing an enemy, the remaining enemies are already reasonably low and quickly killed.Basically, it is like ganging up on an enemy without micro managing.
I'm partial to the Vengeance.
But I'd rather have some variety than perfection, so I equip my best dwellers wih a mixture of Legendary weapons including Leadbelcher and Miss Launcher.
How is it average damage if its random between the two numbers. Its median damage not an average. But yeah nice vid. ;)
Juan Snow median is a type of averaging, I think you're thinking of 'mean'
Hi, did you know up to this point a glitch is still alive, a time glitch, wether you are in adroid or ios, it works. Going in the settings and changing time also changes in the game, and helps up the time needed to get a lunch box
idk if im crazy but since 1.8 i have a feeling the mirv has been nerfed, when i go on quests it deals
really low dmg, when theres one enemy left it does like 1/4 the damage dragon maw does, its like its doing its same low dmg to one, two, or five enemies. like the dmg is not being divided and distributed amongst all enemies but instead distributed across the room in general no matter the enemy count in the room, were it 1, 3 or 5 enemies. it bugged me so much that i replaced it for vengeance and i find myself having a much faster clear time with 2 maws 1 venegeance insted of 2 maws and 1 mirv, if theres manny small things vengeance just keeps switching to the next. like i had 1 ordinary molerat that mirv took 4 shoots to kill while the maw oneshooted it
some posts said that the dmg is divided to all enemies included dead ones. Sucks :D
Wait I have a mirv
I actually prefer I MIRV and 2 Dragon Maws, seems to do the most damage overall.
They should have put a gag weapon in the game like a blow up baseball bat that you get a baseball games, and it does no damage but increases the dwellers S.P.E.C.I.A.L skills but 1 or something
aye awesome series idea. looking forward to more
Thanks. The second episode is out, and more are in the works. :)
I agree. Dragon its the best weapon. I have 23 dragons already in my vault. The other two weapons i have two specimens each One. They are good. But not like Dragons.
Dude you don't got any idea what your talking about the rusty bb gun is obviously the best wepon in the game.
I think the best weapon is the Lazer musket because when I got it each shot did 10-13 and each attack was 3 shots! And plus had a +6 damage parrot so that means the max damage is a wopps 48-57 : so that might be the best. And regular was 30-39 so this might be the best!
Mr Deedle no, the amount of shots total up to 10-13, they do not deal it individually.
"What has been stated is incorrect, given that when a dweller reaches 10 in strength, as written on the wiki, the assigned weapon will always deal the maximum available damage. Max "Dragon's Maw" = 29; Max "Fire Hydrant Bat" = 31; therefore, the "Fire Hydrant Bat" is the best weapon in the game. However, this is only true in the vault and wasteland explorations. During quests, the damage is randomized within the weapon's limits, which would mean that "Dragon's Maw" is better in quests. In fact, "Dragon's Maw" is a heavy weapon, meaning the reload time will be long and not influenced by the dweller's agility. From 14 A (agility), the weapon will always have the same firing rate, whereas the "Fire Hydrant Bat," being a melee weapon, has no reload time, making it faster and better in terms of long-term damage compared to "Dragon's Maw." Of course, the point about gameplay during quests is valid; it's a weapon that is not suitable for solo quests.
P.S.: This gameplay mechanic is only present in quests and not in the vault (where the total room damage is taken into account)."
My favorite is Dragon's Maw. I used to use the Mirv (yes over Fire Hydrant Bat) Until I got The Dragon's Maw.Ever since, X-01 Power Armor (aka not the T 61 or 51 or 41)The X-01 Power Armor with S+5 P+1 E+1 with The Dragon's Maw Guarding The Vault ALONE.Well..I might give him a friend but right now with Raiders,Ghouls,and Deathclaws,He keeps the Vault Safe.
i have all dragon's maw for the level 50 quest. i don't have mirv yet i have to make do with enhanced fatman which do little damage and the dweller with that weapon always got damage more because it takes too long to kill one enemy. but now with all of them equipped with dragon's maw i don't have that problem anymore. oh and pet was more effective for level 50 quest.
Me who though the fure hydrant was bad since i got it on my first lunchbox
I’ve pretty much beaten the game so I am just trying to get the best gear for all my dwellers, I’ll probably start crafting dragon maws and what not unless you think that this list has been outdated and I should use something else
Definitely subbing. Great content!
You can tell the idle guy eith the bat to attack and he will switch places with the lad with a gun
The first time I played the game the very first weapon I got was the Enhanced Fat Man lol
Wow 😭
It’s super annoying how only 1 melee weapon can be used at a time per enemy. If you have 1 deathclaw and all 3 dwellers with melee weapons, one will attack while the other two hang out in the back looking stupid.
How do I get the Dragons Maw?
Is it built?
Your dwellers can find the blueprint while exploring the wasteland. :)
@@Pressingx thanks bro
Great series btw, I absolutely love it
i prefere the gatling laser named revenge or vendetta, depends on how that thing is translated to english, it has basicli one point less than the mirv and it actualy fires multiple times wich ends up in killing 1-2 enemys per round
Are gatling lasers worth crafting ?
Should’ve brought up vangeance, if you look closely when it the guy with the mini gun finishes off a guy he switches and attacks the other guy
Thought which is the best of the mirv and the bat?
Virgils rifle is the best because of the flip move they do
I think best weapon is MIRV and Vengeance for quest.
Mustafa Ulukuş well... Your wrong
souls elite it's true I've got em both and they work very well
The MIRV is the second strongest weapon, carrying a portable Nuke launcher.
It definitely has some cool animations! ^__^
Either my dwellers are weak or the rad scorpions that attack the vault are stronger
Honestly I just think my dwellers are weak as hell cuz when a rad scorpion attacks me it lives until about it crosses 3 rooms or so and THEN it dies
I haven't have the dragons maw but i have the MIRV and Fire hydrant bat
Great weapons as well! :)
what about hardended mini gun it does 29-31
The dragon's maw is really good but also really expensive and takes for me 11D 15h for me atleast cuz i have a pet that gives -crafting speed 20% and cost by 20% so thats good for me :)
Holy crap! Better build some more weapons factories!
Nicke Picke dweller stats affect build time
But isn't the fire hydrant bat faster
Do you think this will be on Xbox on launch? I hope so but i'm happy has long it will get it xbox.
can weapons break?
DMG doesn't really matter but fire rate does
I got the rocket launcher and mini gun in two different lunchboxes at dweller number 20 is that good?
Lawliet s Yes, those will be very helpful at that point in the game! :)
can someone explain to me how the institute rifle works, i got a dweller equiped with it on a quest and he shoots it twice, like he shoots once and then rolls back instantly and shoots again, while the guy with the plasma rifle just shoots once, did he do the rifles damage twice? or is the rifle damage just divided in those two shoots?
I'm 99% sure that the damage is divided between the two volleys.
hmm yeah i thinks so too, thx for response
+Pressing X
Is it bad that I'm 100% sure that damage is simply dealt for each attack animation/combat turn no matter how much shots is displayed?:))
I got the funny fire hidrant bat
How can I get the recipe tho? I've been trying to find it for ages! I'm already at 116 dweller and a bunch of max stat dwellers, but still, no dragon's maw activity
So i was lucky with having 80 dwellers and getting the maw
for defending my cault I've gone with the Plasma rifles but for quest I went with fatmen lol
use 2 dragon maws and 1 mirv or just 3 dragon maws
I Think That "Mirv" Is The Best One, Because It's Take Effect On All Opponents In One Shoot.
bro in my VERY FIRST lunchbox i got an enhanced fat man it was the most broken thing at the beggining of the game
Everyone knows that fists are the best weapons very useful for quests and raider attacks
What about the pick axe ????
I love this Video
I prefer institute rifles they are more entertaining to see in combat giving
5 hits: 2 roll back then 3 more to complete a combination also allows characters to switch targets before or during the 3rd hits kill
(kill on first shot second shot is skipped roll back 3 more shots on next enemy)
(kill on second shot roll back three more shots on next enemy)
(kill on third shot continues shooting 4th and 5th into the chest of the next enemy)
hit that critical at the right time and its a 10 shots of fun for everyone >:D (if you don't hit the 5 multiplier)
faster a bit weaker but enjoyable combat to see take place especially with 6 people rolling around shooting deathclaws.
side note come by my vault any time our diner top floor has your choice of deathclaw Steaks/Stews, fresh garden salads/ French fries and nuka cola/the purest water in the wasteland 60caps/meal. Don't be startled when deathclaws come into the diner its easier to herd them then to try and drag them back from the wastes.
we also do breakfast dishes they are more expensive finding sugar bombs and gecko eggs/ Deathclaw eggs is difficult. next time you come by feel free to make a special order ill get some of my Chem dealers to find whatever is needed.
cheaper meal options consist of molerat stew or molerat-rad scorpion kabob Deathclaw Burger/Hot-Dog. 10 caps nuka/water is an extra 2 caps
Got the blueprint for both dragons maw and fire hydrant bat but the resources are being a pain in the ass to get -_-
Ya, legendary junk can take a while to collect. Patience! >,,
My first weapon was a guided fat man
слава богу, субтитры, можно перевести, на русский
а то это единственное видео, с той информацией которая мне нужна.
я не могу, это скорпиен, меня смешит :) (без обид)
автор молодец)
Why not just take them all out in one fell swoop with mirvs?
I’m going to assume it’s better to focus on one enemy at a time. Let’s say you use 3 mirvs which means you’ll be attacked from all 3 enemies the whole time. If you instead focus on one enemy, you’ll actually receive less damage over time since you knock them out one by one. A combination of all 3 or 2 rifles one melee is probably best.
of corse the only weapon i dont have is the best one im not joking i have litteraly every weapon except the dragons maw
My favorite characters are the Colonel Autumn and Akira Katana.
Just don't ask me why.
Why?
*thug life*
The best weapon is obviously the blackhawk
dragon maw and the fire hidrant cus dont k.ow
I have the golden missle launcher
Missile*
Haha! I had M.I.R.V in first pack!
please come back to fallout shelter , it is really fun for me but no one plays it anymore and i have to watch videos from fricking 5 years ago ._.
I thought the best was a vengance
It took me 4 years
The best weapon I have is an amplified alien blaster.
Sarah McManus that's good , my best is plasma rifle and I have 72 dwellers
Wasnt the MIRV renamed Fat-Man?
No the is rusty fat man fat man the better fatman and mirv
the best weapon is the minigun
I got the Fat Man gun
I have 3fat man guided
I start play fallout shelter And now me drop fire hydrant bat
I got the weapon that does 19-31 damage
Its pretty good
best weapon is exploding combat shotgun
This man is still responding to comments you deserve a sub
Thanks for the sub!
Pressing X np
Hard agree and following suit too. These vids have been a goldmine for my playthrough answering questions that the game doesn't.
make a video explaining in detail what each stat does in the wasteland in battle and in the vault
+ 1
Strength -makes you more likely to hit that maximum damage of your weapon. For example: "Fire Hydrant Bat" with 19-31 will more consistently deal around 31, I need to make calculations if it's actually better to have +7 Strength than +7 Agility using this weapon which benefits the most of doing successful high roll damage.- It also helps your wasteland explorers with some events.
In vault it's used for electricity production and crafting most of the best weapons in the game. Very useful stat and you can never go wrong training it.
Perception makes you more likely to hit the center of critical hit roulette. -Not worth equipping any Perception boosts if you are precise enough to hit the 5x crit damage even with just based 10 Perception trained.- However it may reward you in the wasteland with more rewards since all SPECIAL stats help you while exploring wasteland. It's not worst stat to boost.
Later in the game, you can use Perception in your Vault to craft weapons/outfits/themes that require Perception.
Endurance is the most unique of all SPECIAL stats. It gets progressively less efficient the higher level your dwellers are. If you want to dig most from Endurance = max health possible, you need to train new level 1 dweller to 10 Endurance, give them outfit +5 or +7 Endurance and sent them to wasteland to level up, once they reach lvl 50, sent them back. Health of the dweller will be displayed once he starts taking damage, however don't expect to see a number, rather compare them with other dwellers that took same amount of damage but their health differs.
It also makes your Stimpacks heal more HP since they restore % of your dwellers health, not the actual amount. Your dweller takes less damage but your stimpacks heal same amount everytime. Making stimpacks and radaway more effective.
If you want your wasteland adventurers to last longer, make sure then have +11 Endurance from their outfits so they won't receive the random radiation damage events. With 11 Endurance you practically don't need Rad-away (unless you are on a Quest).
Piper outfit fits this idea, it provides +2 Endurance which is enough to stop radiation and +6 other stats on top of that.
Intelligence is the most useless stat in combat, it doesn't make your stimpacks heal for more, nor give you any combat advantage (like accessing terminals with defenses, which would be cool). It only affects your performance while exploring wasteland.
However you need intelligence in your Vault for numerous things. Namely stimpack + radway production and crafting.
Since I made my Vault Institute themed I craft Virgil's Rifle a lot, and it need Intelligence for crafting so my vault is more Intelligence focused than would be optimal.
Surprised no one mentioned the Institute Rifles. Especially Virgil's Rifle.
Is Virgil in the game or his wepon
@@catspy7619 both
I thought the same thing, the fast rate of fire and the amount of shots I found it clearing rooms much faster than a team of dragon maws
I use institute Rifles a ton
I love your vault logs. I think fallout shelter is a game that got way too less appreciation. It looks great, has many mechanics, and is overall nice with the dweller system. Also you can play it offline on your phone, tablet or wherever you installed it. So just wanted to say thx for that you made these nice videos about it ❤️. Love from germany
Thanks so much for sharing the kind words! It's been a few years since I played, but I had a lot of fun with the game and creating the series. Glad to hear that people are still enjoying the game & vids. :)
One moment of silence who thought it was armor peircing mini gun
HOW CAN YOU GET 100% EVERYTHING IM PLAYING FOR 3 DAYS AND ITS A DISSASTER
the fire hydrant bat is a melee weapon and as such will only allow a single person wielding one to attack a baddie at a time (dwellers with a ranged weapon can also attack at the same time), Dragon maw is THE top damage weapon in the game but fires only a single burst then recharges - i like many prefer to mix it up with the weapons to cover all bases.
I got the mirv on my first day of playing fallout shelter Lol
Blake Gammon same hahaha
Blake Gammon I can just edit my fallout shelter and give my self as many of anything I want. Even unimplemented or unobtainable items.
Louie Satterwhite How?!
+Alejandro Vigueret Fernandez theres an aapp
genericcat Name?
Getting guided Fatman at the first lunch box is gotta be the best thing that I got
