They did something to them.. Non modded Robot Auto axe was doing amazing damage on the Robot Boss, they where melting with two of us using the Auto Axe.
I rolled a bloodied auto axe yesterday, and it feels four times as effective as a non-bloodied a week back. So I can't tell if it is Bloodied or if they changed the axe.
Conviently this just went up into the atom shop, perfect timing cause i have an unarmed build currently and picked it up off the atom shop to play with and my god....
@@roonkolos I will definitely look into that, I just rolled my vampire 40% power DMG auto axe today. I still need the pemmican collector and mire lurk steamer.

Think I missed it in the video. What are the rolls you are using on that axe? Also, how do you manage your meat buffs when not running good with salt? I feel like stuff is going to spoil before you can use it. Do you utilize your cryo freezer quite a bit?
It took me a solid month of running expeditions to get all the Union PA pieces, now I'm about to blow another month on stamp collecting for the auto axe smh
Melee is having a hard time seeing anything with all the cremator explosions filling the screen. How do we fix this? Why we buff the damage! That should fix it, right ?
We need a setting that allows us to disable all the explosion effects. They're making us blind at the events and that's not good for anyone. Players don't get their XP.
@@77FormatI just sit back and let them do the event for me since they don't want to think about other people anyways. Blind away while I farm you for xp lol
This is why I haven’t really started running my melee build yet - I’ll stick with my Auto Tesla build that melts crowds for now, with 2 Vampire shock Auto axes for single target damage.
I just started using Auto axe today as I'm having an issue farming acid to refine ore to make bullets. Preferably 308 for the Red Terror. Also fuel for the cremator now that I have isn't as common anymore, as I digress into my game issues lol. But yeah even just stock the auto axe is nuts!
Just a quick question, you said 'that's why I have so much strength', but how do you get so much strength then? quite a new player. Love the vids btw, just subbed :D
yeah it´s pretty strong, though i think it has a lot to do with elemental resistances after the patch, fire mod and chainsaw for that matter arent far behinf on damage neutral enemies and on enemies who are weak against fire they should out perform the electric mod. BTW you can optimize the melee build even more, with weighted arms mod for more armor penetration, I also like Dense on the chest to activate fireproofs fire resistance, enforcer, concentrated fire1 and either cold shoulder or gauss shotgun are great side arms against scorchbeasts and volatile enemies. lastly a personal preference but i run the day and night perks in endurance, brings me above 90HP at 20%health and give +3str during the day
I use a heavy build science with the electric Auto axe as my Melee no two hand cards and it shreds but i noticed they dropped the physical some and added more electric damage
No way they aren't nerfing this.. also, I wonder why they keep poison around, it is the most useless elemental dmg type, most enemies have super high resistance to it.
Why would they nerf it? Railways are still the most broken thing to ever be made in a fallout game. And ranged builds overall destroys melee builds. And if they nerf it. Then i at least hope they nerf the auto axe and not melee perk cards. I today started doing a unarmed build so i dont want melee to get nerfed
@@98maplestory they'll just take away food buffs stacking like they did with junkies, that's the issue in the game full stop. Someone with an autoaxe melting the new bosses in 3 seconds? It's food buffs, not the weapon. Someone using a railway too good? Food buffs, canned coffee stacking, etc, not the weapon.
-- Curious about performance on a full health build (have the same legendary cards as you) - and full health build because my primary is pvp - would be using power armor with the arm(s) modifications. I'm level 435. No food cards. Well thought out build for a pretty good super sledge, and I have the important mods for the axe. Just haven't built one yet.
@@MrWestTek yeah I think so, one thing I dont like is the….recoil?? Or them blocking? Whatever it is when the axe bounces off them and almost makes a ping.
I'm always using my full health melee build, and since the update my dual blade flaming vampire chainsaw seems to be cutting through enemies as efficiently as my vampire electrified auto axe. You can pay 500 tickets for the auto axe, but it has been in the atom shop for a while for purchase (with the cold shoulder) for atoms. I haven't looked recently to see if it's still there.
@@juandevora4873union is better just cause it’s a power armor so if you a power armor user then that but the ones you get for free ain’t far behind tbh only advantage it has is the carry weight and poison resistance with the full set secret service is probably the best armor for non power armor users but ones power armor and ones just regular armor
I would have loved seeing a comparison with the chainsaw. Would it be worth buying the auto axe instead of using a chainsaw, if I'm using it as a secondary weapon?
im so disappointed in my damage with this game but I dont like to play bloodied. ill try those science cards to boost my damage hopefully its better. I keep using the autoaxe for the new event but it takes forever to kill even 1 guy in power armor when they spawn in. Seems like damage only good in this game when you are bloodied and have all legendary cards maxed 🤷🏻♂️
simply look up a full health auto axe build. Or make one yourself. Whatever you choose, I'm 100% sure you're doing more damage than me with my enclave plasma rifle (not flamer) trying and failing to use VATS consistently due to the gross ap cost.
I don't play bloodied either, I do fine, I cut through things really fast. Make sure the legendaries you are using on armor & weapons align with your build. Also, look into food buffs! You want anything that gives you strength, like deathclaw steaks, stingwing fillets are easy to make, glowing meat steaks give you a great melee dmg buff too!
@@GoogleAccount-jn5qboath, I run a Q/25/50break on a Stabilised Auto Enclave Rifle and usually I can mob pretty easily during daily ops or anything but these new enemies are just tanking, used a base cremator without perks to test and it's already outperforming there haha 😅
Legendary perks do nothing damage wise lmao but I used to run a full health build no melee weapons tho they are kinda unpowered especially if you not bloodied I had no trouble killing things I switched to bloody the damage increase i got is insane but nonetheless you should have no problem killing anything else with a full health build might not kill them as fast a bloody player or do as much damage but yeah and just use buffs alot of damage buffs in the game ain’t even hard to get them either
@@hector-tp3pv legendary perks allow you to expand the build, telling me you can have +5 to 6 stats and claiming it's not helping is a little wild bro 😜
Is the electiric mod still the best? Or is that only if you use the science perks to scale the electric dmg? I just got the auto axe yesterday and I grabbed all the mods for it but it looks like the fire mod does a little more dmg compared to unscaled electric mod but theres also poison which has a big dmg over time but idk maybe dmg over time effects are a waste? I would love to hear what some of the auto axe vets have to say.
Lucky enough to get a quad explosive slow break railway and even a perfectly set up commando build doesn’t come close to being as good as my aristocrat auto ax build. And best part is I don’t have to worry about ammo
Do you think you could give some tips on starting a melee character? I have been playing Commando and PA on my main character (around lvl 180 now) but I wanted to try something different with a melee build. I decided to make a new character since the mutations are all different, but getting started with melee is so slow.. enemies take so long to kill and it's just a slog. I also want to do full health melee this time. Getting tired of bloodied and unyielding all the time. You mentioned that this weapon could do well with full health too. Maybe you could make a build for that? No video or anything, unless you want to, but just something to work towards for a new character.
Nothing wrong with the chainsaw, auto axe just does a little more now. If anything u have a nice chainsaw to use while u grind out the auto axe, then after u get the auto axe u want u could trade the chainsaw still
it is 500 same as the cold sholder
