That weight weapon reduction is becoming more and more valuable to me as I hoard soooo much stuff. When I do a stash cleaning I run out of scrip/caps from vendors...INTERVENTION! Started dropping stuff at Vault 76 entrance for some lucky rando new toon to find.

You cannot fully spec for Gunslinger/Guerilla without sacrificing something else from your build because Pistol perks are in Agility section. I'd rather get a Rifleman so I can fully spec for it and just drink a couple of more Coffee or Eat Nuka Cola Candy which doesn't, but should get buffed by Cola Nuts.. Please turtle, yell at the devs to fix the Cola Nut-Nuka Candy bug.
Easy way to stay stocked up on Plasma ammo is use the Plasma Caster. I usually kill an enemy with two head shots and you always get double or triple the ammo back looting the bodies.
I have a special build for taking down Earl but still can't duplicate taking him down in 18 secs. Offering a few recommendations; I carry 3 plasma variants. #1 slug buster aligned flamer rifle, #2 Enclave with aligned sniper barrel, #3 Vamp plasma flamer, and #4 Quad Cryo for slowing down SBQ. Having multiple plasma variants helps eliminate the needs for other ammo. Obviously, there are numerous options for perk cards but I choose to focus on blocking, AP refresh, and Criticals. I have bad habit using VATS on just about everything so it's nice to cards have equipped. Armors: Arms/Legs Ultra light (basically anything that increased AP bonus). Torso: Asbestos lining (immune to being set on fire), and embers dropped from Earl. Under armor: (shielded lining) boosts +3 agility, perception, luck. Chems: Over-Drive, Psychobuff(careful) when it expires, HP will automatically reduce. Aid: Liquid courage (Immunity to Uncontrollable Fear(4m), Hard lemonade (AP regen +10% for 10 min) Food: (crit damage/action point refresh): Blight soup, Corn soup, Tato, Mutfruit juice Camp Item: Antique Speed bag machine +2 agility for 30 mins. I sell my enclave rifles for 5000caps when I find them. A fair and balanced economy for all players, for lvls 1-2000+. Thats my take.... Thanks Turtle for the breakdown. This weapon definitely has lots of power!
@@horridfuture3835 it’s a mighty great pistol but good enclave plasma pistols or even groll plasma pistols modded right and last but not least the two shot alien pistol all out dps the enclave sniper pistol with quad. But all great weapons
@@PROCHIMNEY I meant enclave pistol in general in multiple specs being the only real pistol guerrilla or gunslinger I’d bother doing the more involved content with. Two shot alien blaster isn’t what it once was but I’m sure it’s fine if you don’t mind the ammo capacity.
Cool! My Slug Buster went missing after an event and I thought I could never get another one. My alt toon is almost at the Ra-Ra quest. Those private servers are great for swapping between characters.
I wasn't aware that the pistol version has lower AP cost than the rifle version. Now I might try finding a Enclave Flamer Pistol. I already have an perfect Enclave Flamer Rifle and an Enclave Automatic Rifle both with -25% AP cost as 3rd star bonus, but they still eat up my AP so quickly. Having a pistol would also be more optimal for perks distribution as I can still use my Commando perks under Perception and get the Gunslinger perks under Agility.
I'm curious how Calibrated would compare to prime. More crit damage might preform better on bosses since you're relying on crits to do the bulk of your damage. I've always been a fan of weight reductions (especially for rifles that have no perks for it) so I'm really looking forward to this update.
I used that as my substitute weapon cause I still haven’t found the enclave flamer mod, I was able to find Calibrated shocks for T-60 for both legs which was nice
i have had the slug buster sitting in my inventory while i have been going after enclave plasma flamers this whole time and now i kinda wish i had just modded the slug buster way back when. i guess i will have to try making a build for the slug buster and try it out now
The damage for my Slug Buster lvl 45 is only "68" i have almost the exact same attachments only with the "true flamer barrel" being the only one i have.
I'm quite new and just experimenting with a regular plasma flamer at the moment, I love it but my god it chews through ammo, my damage also doesn't look anywhere near as high as yours. Not sure what I'm doing differently? Im only level 97 so far so maybe I'm missing perks?
Is it still possible to double dip with rifleman and gunslinger perks if you get a plasma pistol then add the sniper barrel to it ? Kinda like you can with a pipe revolvers.
Aw man... I seriously thought I was being nice to Rara and then she proclaimed me "kinda mean" after I gave her an entire pie. Now I see what I missed out on...
Oh man ... missed opportunity my friend... the slug Buster has another amazing feature that you did not mention. If you haven't modded with pulse capacitor... go down 2 Prime press the vats button on scorchbeast.. you will see the Vets hit chance be low... if you disengage vats and re-engage .. you will get 95% vats hit accuracy!!! Go give it a try it's kind of Awesome. Maybe update video?
@AngryTurtle understandable. I'm just having a hard time setting prices. Most just sit. Plus I don't want to under or overcharge anything. At times, I give it away to lower level players if I need the storage space. Thanks turtle. You are doing gods work.
Turtle what's wrong with explosive pistols they don't get gd crit damage? I did a small test I'm not as knowledgeable about the gm but I was able to get higher crit damage from a non legendary pistol by alot!
That weapon weight reduction is good for someone like me who loves to hoard their guns. I love my enclave flamer, but one thing I've wondered because I haven't been able to get the right roll, but does the Zealots legendary effect stack with the prime receivers as far as damage goes or does one cancel out the other. Enjoy the content and keep it up.
Or if you weren't nice to Ra Ra in the story just photo glitch through the wall and grab that thing 😊. Let's be honest Ra Ra is annoying. I don't condone gltiching but made an exception in this case ha ha.
Lord she was awful. I went Settler on my main but made sure to do all the raider ones as well before choosing. That was mainly because of the big xp boost for finishing their main quest.
@@nielseliot7444 No. I meant automatic. And I don't just want an OP gun to kill bosses. Sometimes I want to have fun in the game. I want something that can fight Super Mutants, not kill Earl or the SBQ in a few hits.
@@hermos3602 Apart from VATS, the norm is of course to use heavy weapons and PA. Otherwise, the most effective automatic light weapon at short range is the plasma/enclave flamer, which gives by far the most DPS, has a wide spread and hits several targets at once. Then there's the tesla rifle, which has a longer range and is really handy with its electric arc bounce. The plasma/enclave rifle with the automatic mod has the best range and little recoil, but you have to aim carefully and you can only hit one target at a time. The laser rifle is the same, but with a shorter range and less damage, perhaps for fun or until you have something better. Ballistic weapons have more recoil, so I think the most interesting thing would be a TSE to compensate for the recoil through the wide spread. The most effective is probably the hand made. Personally, when I can't use the VATS with my commando, I use the tesla.
Hey turtle. Love your videos. For us that are wanting to be lazy build and don't want to farm to produce ultracite ammo, what is the next best thing to the prime mod for this flamer build?
I got the Slugbuster rifle and it kicks ass. but its a crater gift? I swear I received it in an event, mustve been Moonshine? I stuck with the sniper version instead of flamer version since Enclave flamer is better and use sniper and rifleman perk, its a bit semiauto but it punches through anything with enough shots. Thanks for making this video sir Turtle, very timely
Just drop most mutations and have no elemental resistance legendary cards. That's how I play to make it challenging. No jumping on buildings at events, actually fight on the ground. It's a much more rewarding way to play. Atleast for me. Sitting on a ledge in a full set of unyielding with a fixer in constant vats feels mind numbing
@@FilthEffect I don't disagree. The problem is when you're on a public server and other people do disagree and insta-destroy a boss. Sucks all the fun out of it.
Yo lmk if u can talk I don’t wut to ask u for anything I just wut someone to hang with but just got scammed on fallout and lose all my stuff I’m not doing the best but just lmk if u can hit me back up if not that’s okay but Thxs for everything and u r a really good person

It's so good that I have a Slug Buster sniper and Slug buster Flamer for my main and alt.
I have a Slug Buster sniper and Enclave Flamer with AAffr90 for the same idea. I love it!

I put a flamer on mine, it absolutely eats the ammo
Easy way to stay stocked up on Plasma ammo is use the Plasma Caster. I usually kill an enemy with two head shots and you always get double or triple the ammo back looting the bodies.
After they buffed energy weapons I’ve thought they’d be good for a pistol build. 😃
How weird is that, I was watching your old Enclave Plasma videos last night, and today, a new one!!! Thanks Turtle, have a great evening!!!
I still use the Pulse capacitor with the Flamer barrel… on the plasma

Thats my take.... Thanks Turtle for the breakdown. This weapon definitely has lots of power!
Quad enclave plasma with sniper barrel has 99 mag capacity for some reason. Probably the best rifleman weapon that’s not a flamer.
And one of the best gunslinger as well😊

Reduced weight decreases ap since you don't get "winded" by maintaining grip on the gun with it's original weight

after adding flamer add the pulse capacitor for crazy ranged action projectile flamer.
even with adding a scope etc, the amount of vats it 'doesn't' use, it can be upgraded for accuracy with scopes no problem imo.
Wow , some impressive damage it's got . Holy 🐄 !!
Ra Ra told me I was not nice to her, but I was nice to her, and got the weapon :)

Is critical damage a better effect than vats cost reduction for this weapon?
having both is better
You made me really happy with the pulse capacitor bug thx turtle

Thank you turtle! And yes farming the enclave plasma flamer is pure pain, do not recommend.
How are you able to see more stats such as VATS Accuracy and AP Costj?
On PTS server
I'm quite new and just experimenting with a regular plasma flamer at the moment, I love it but my god it chews through ammo, my damage also doesn't look anywhere near as high as yours. Not sure what I'm doing differently? Im only level 97 so far so maybe I'm missing perks?
So, it's like free star for AP cost reduction. Nice, a proper unique gun.
Could the AP cost reduction be attached to the weight reduction?
no
You can not drop the slug buster to give to someone, but you can sell it in your vendor.
I just recently transferred one with container on private server so you can
@@AngryTurtle You can put it on a container like a bag, not drop it... Typical Bethesda
There's no way in hell I'm buying anything from vendors since I'm on Console people think everything's worth twenty thirty thousand caps
It's just caps, caps don't hold value
And here comes basic question, why the hell use plasma flamer in vats? IMO AP cost it doesn't matter with this gun.
Is it still possible to double dip with rifleman and gunslinger perks if you get a plasma pistol then add the sniper barrel to it ? Kinda like you can with a pipe revolvers.
no

no as those are changing based on market demand

I wish you told me that earlier before I scraped it
Where can you get all the plans for the plasma gun? I want the True flamer barrel but I have no Idea where you’re supposed to get it.
Train vendors sell some mods but the best ones are from scrapping plasma guns and rifles. Some high level blood eagles use them. Get farming 💚
Do you know what perk cards work for the slug? Buster, when it's got the flimmer barrel
commando
With the flamer what is difference between aligned true and stabilized
slightly more ap with other two

I'm more worried about Vampires being fixed on it
@@PROJEKT_R3D what’s broken with the vampires flamer?
Haha I see they made a turtle backpack :) I'm sure you're happy about that!
Besides prime capacitor what do you recommend ?
any other will result in huge dps loss, calibrated for crit boost is the best after prime
Nice, was wondering why I was leaving that in my storage for so long.
I have 2 Enclave flamers one is a terrible roll while the other is AA vats critical and the 3 effect I don't remember.

Yes they are
Great update. Thanks for the info!
Did the slug bust come with prime or did you roll it?
I modified it, it comes as a sniper
So do you give this weapon 4 out 5 turtle eggs or 5 out of 5?
4 whole eggs and one yellow
wouldn't the critical mods be better than prime?
prime on energy guns is still multiplicative bonus
@@AngryTurtle ohh I figured it was getting fixed like two shot
@@AngryTurtle But on a boss it's still the calibrated one that's the most effective, isn't it?
