I think it’s strategic that the single shotgun fires one bullet, and because it’s so accurate (most accurate shotgun in the game) you can snipe people with it which is always funny.
Abilene Kid BB Gun slander will NOT be tolerated - Cheapest ammo, can be bought in bulk at Mick and Ralph’s + Gun Runners - Better criticals makes it do about as much damage as a Sniper Rifle - Silenced which makes it perfect for stealth builds - Insane fire rate and mag size - Cheap repairs - Pure comedic value of exploding someone with a BB Gun

Riot shotgun at 8 😭 it’s the most broken gun in any fallout game ever. Shotgun surgeon, stay back, better crits, combined with high luck build = god killer
@FlymanMS idk what you want. If you only care about the stats, then go to the wiki and min max your loadout. There'd be no reason to watch these video if they were just the wiki in video format.
So would I. Service Rifle is always looked down upon, despite being one of rifles with most versatile rounds available, cheap to maintain, almost never jams despite condition and can be modded to further improve its use. I've played 2 or 3 playthroughs solely relying on the Service Rifle and was surprised how well it could adapt to the demands of each individual encounters using a corresponding ammo type
Its the unique variant of the service rifle that uses the 12.7mm round. Its not better than the brush gun but it is a very good weapon, not at all comparable to the base service rifle.
They have very very very similar DPS when facing low to 0 DT targets. But K9 starts to fall when the enemy has mid DT. Source: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12m8sq8gcl_RpOGS01i9RlHS1s8FOkNdp2nMl83jr0Mo/edit?usp=sharing
6:55 on the service rifle part you complained that the only way to get it is to kill ncr soldiers. But if you go to the mojave outpost and complete the little side quests that the chief gives you. Talk to him about a reward and he gives you a service rifle and some ammo. I think medical supplies as well.
No med supplies but 4 weapon repair kits as well as 100 round for it. This gun is seriously op till you get better. It even has upgrades for a faster firing rate and a durability update this thing is got very early in game and is a good hard hitter in early game and last you for a nice bit. Not an end game weapon but still solid.
The LMG becomes an absolute shredder with grunt and match rounds from handloader. You may say its carried by perks but its a late game weapon and if you dont have these perks late game, there may be something wrong with your build.
Mostly depends on preference... But definitely agree... If you want a lighter version of the minigun the light rifle is definitely a good choice... Especially after you equip the mod for it...
Disagree on that. Once ammo types and perks get into it, Medicine Stick penetrates every orifice out of anything, especially with SWC ammo, and being a lever action rifle, it gets bonus from cowboy perk as well.
The ranger sequoia should've been a unique hunting revolver. The sequoia is only given to rangers with 20+ years of service and while I get that it makes sense for veteran rangers to carry one, I find it hard to believe that the NCR would have as many veteran rangers at their disposal for the Mojave campaign as shown in the game in the later stages of the main quest/at high levels. Plus the revolver has the same amount of ornateness as some of the unique pistols like Lucky and Maria. A lot of in-game dialogue suggests that not only is being a ranger a highly dangerous job (Cpl Sterling tells us that a lot of the rangers he served with when he was still a Ranger more than a decade ago are now dead) but also that the rangers are purposely being underutilized in the Mojave campaign due to General Oliver wanting his army to get credit for the second victory at the Hoover Dam, assuming they win, and Chief Hanlon's intel sabotaging.
dude it's an entire state, they're fighting a total war, they would bring every single veteran ranger from all over California, retired or not, to the field
its the wasteland, the NCR has been a power for what 60 years? theyre gonna have more than two veteran rangers available, and probably willing to send more than usual to the mojave given the war going on there
I disagree about the Caravan shotgun. This is almost the best shotgun for a weak character build. Low weight. You can carry more valuables. + Variety of ammo. Which will allow you to use it at short and long distances. + Low repair cost, and the shotgun itself is widespread. it should be much higher
The Gobi Campaign was always my go-to. It's an easy op gun to get really early on and works for all sniping needs. That, the 45 smg, hunting shotgun, and 45 pistol were my standard constant setup.
The NCR service rifle is a reward for a few quests. Camp Searchlight dog tags quest & I think a quest in Forlorn Hope or another early game NCR Camp gives it away as a reward. Its also quite easy to get if you go to anywhere the Legion or Fiends are likely to meet the NCR as a few troops usually die. Also some areas have dead NCR with it normally like Nelson, Ranger Camp Charlie & a few other areas.
I agree with him, I love the LMG, but it has one of the worst accuracy in the game, and the spread is insane unless you use mods, for cqc it's amazing for sure.
@@RUSTYCHEVYTRUCK Dunno what you're using, but I play with mods and on that high end difficulty. I don't have much carry capacity, having to carry 10 lbs worth of ammo around is a really big deal. And that usually won't even last you to clear out bigger things with the LMG due to how much ammo it really consumes.
Oh hey you also don’t have to kill the guy to get La Longue Carabine. You can reverse pickpocket him something with higher damage, and one bullet. Since NPCs don’t need ammo he’ll load the one round of a higher damage throwaway gun, and you can pickpocket the one you want. Same with clothing and any weapon.
I got it by used stealth boy, then used BB gun to shot Cpl.Sterling, lured him out alone from other NCR soldiers, then used Ratslayer to shot it off his hand and holstered immediately. He will lost interesting to find me and back to normal while leaving his rifle on the floor.
Ratslayer is overpowered. Due to it being a varmint rifle ammo is common and is suppressed so it’s much better then most other suppressed weapons. If you are making a stealth build it’s a need. It’s also literally a direct upgrade to standard varmint rifle so
Along with the 5X Crit Chance Modifier, meaning you'll only need 9 Luck (10 since you'll get the implant), Finesse, and Light Touch to become a never ending crit demon. Which makes early game and most mid game encounters a cakewalk.
The Gobi Campaign Rifle isn’t gold, it just looks bad because of New Vegas’ poor color palette and lighting. It’s a tan color, with darker brown mixed in, and lighter khaki type too. If you look at it in third person you can see it’s a Desert Camouflage variant.
Someone should make a mod that adds the Police Pistol to the highway patrol station near Mojave Outpost. I think that would be a lore friendly place for that pistol to spawn, and make it more accessible for the early game.
bro simply ignored the fact that the nail gun TOTALLY ignores the targets' armor... This alone makes you able to kill several strong opponents easily just by aiming for the head. I would put it in the top 20 or 10
14:18 For the La Longue Carabine, just pickpocket his ammo, leave the tent, wait for a day or two, then you’ll be able to pickpocket his weapon, higher your stealth the more likely you can get away without getting caught, just quick save and reload every time he turns hostile
Its been 1 minute and im already mad. WHY did you put the god damn Big Iron below the varmint rifle? Also I find it weird that you put the LMG some 20 places lower than the Bozar despite it being almost a straight upgrade
My personal favorite is the Light in shining darkness. Stack the right perks with super hand loaded ammo and you’ll be 1-2 shotting everyone on very hard.
Actually the service rifle you can get for free by completing an incrediblely easy quest given be the Mojave outpost kill a few ants and it's yours and you get it early in the game so it shines there.
Thing is, it can be easily missed. The only time you're sent to the Mojave Outpost in the early game is during the primm sheriff quest, which has a bunch of different ways to end it, which doesn't send you there. Aside from that, you'll probably be sent there to deal with Cass, but by then, you likely have far stronger weapons, and there isn't really a reason to use a Service Rifle.
@@NPC20567 There was one terminal (found at X-13 if I'm not mistaken) that mentioned using a dog's brain to track the targets not the bullets them selfes. While in game it doesn't exactly track the target it does detect them by growling when near enemies. It also has visual cues like ears and a sniffer module lets call it installed on the gun itself.
It’s pretty obvious you’ve never had a max lvl character you literally put Fido the upgraded version of the gun over 20 under the un upgraded one. The Gobi isn’t gold and is by far the best vats and sneak/crit weapon in the game and the AMR is awful late game
Agree with everything except the AMR comment. It is easily one of the best SNEAK crit build weapons in the game. Invest in a suppressor, explosive ammo, better crits, etc. and you can one shot a gaggle of legendary death claws from a 1000 miles away. Sometimes with one bullet. When you aren’t using it in a stealth capacity, it does fall off late game and Christine’s Sniper easily beats it
@@Enjoyer19111 yeah it’s my favorite weapon in FNV by far. Tons of customization, ammo variety, and easily the one of the coolest weapon designs. Might not be the absolute best in terms of damage but it’s damn close when used the right way
I was walking around with the AMR(GRA) variant around level 10. i'd say its an op gun but im pretty sure that Gauss rifle near the northern passage is broken if u dump into energy guns and kill the guy w the gauss rifle. but everyone plays differently and i just so happen to go straight for the best guns in the beginning of every playthough, or straight for the casinos with max luck and taking the cazadore route.
Fido is better than k9000, it's the upgrade. standard weapons offer same base damage as gra but can be obtained for free so not sure why large disparity. That machine should be lower as you lock out contrares who is the best vendor in the game. Upgraded hunting shotgun is better than dinner bell
You don't actually have to kill to get the service rifle, you can just head up to the Mojave outpost and ask one of the guys there if you can help around, you just need to clear the bugs out of the way on a broken down road, then head back to him and he'll give you it as a reward for completing his quest.
I disagree with dinnerbell being so much higher than the standard hunting shotgun- an almost dlc size quest to get dinnerbell and it's only better quality is a fraction more damage. The standard hunting shotgun is in my opinion better once fully modded.
You're completely right, I just assumed that it was better but looking at the wiki the fully modded hunting shotgun has better spread and holds more ammo. I'll add this as a correction in the description
i kinda lost it on paciencia. dude, put a little bit more effort. i am not even sure i should make this comment if i really dislike vid quality at this point Half of the tier list consist of "never used didn't care" argument chip and kinda dumb 0/10 low on the list
So idk if this is true for every version. But for new Vegas on the ps3 while using any revolver if you rapidly cycle your ammo type all the way through back to your ammo of choice, if you can do it fast enough it will reload the whole cylinder while only doing the animation to reload one round.
The Pacienca has always been my favourite gun in this game, it's sooo satisfying to use.. I love the sound it does when shooting, I feel like it adds to the "powerful one shot" thingy it has !
I have been on a New vegas kick for a while (since it came out) and ReapeeRon makes top tier list looking at all weapons and looking at stats, ammo variations, mods and unique weapons along with suggested perks and builds for weapons and where to find the weapons. Very good lists.
The LMG and Automatic Rifle outdamage pretty much all other guns except the unique Minigun. Lol LMG is also the best gun for 5.56 ammo. (Same situation with SMMG where its the best to use with 10mm) The ONLY downside of these weapons is their bad spread though. Pretty nutty list but enjoyed watching it. At least someone paid some sort of respect to the .22 smg.
Gra versions aren’t better statistically, they can just take mods that the base version can’t. Also they have to be bought, and sometimes aren’t worth the money, so that’s a potential reason to use the base version instead
Yeah I think I should've just combined the gra weapons with the regular ones cause it kinda messes up the list having them at such varied rankings even though they're basically the same thing
Completely unrelated, I wish you could mod unique firearms. Adding silencers, extendo mag, etc. would’ve made some of those weapons much higher on the list. I agreed with the list for the most part, it was a great video! I would’ve ranked That Gun over Joshua Grahams pistol. It fits the fallout aesthetic a bit better for me.
Some can be modified. Like the weathered 10mm and mercenary grenade launcher which both can receive all upgrades for 10mm and grenade launcher each. Although weather 10mm doesn't showcase silencer, you can still hear that it's there. Also DLC uniques usually have upgrades allowed like holorifle, bear trap, OWB guns like dog gun etc
@@danielsurvivor1372 that’s good to know man. I’ve tried upgrading Maria, Lucky etc with no success. Just assumed it couldn’t be done with any uniques. Thanks for the information about the weathered, that’s actually game changing.
Abilene should defo be higher as if you build it right its crit damage will do as much damage as the anti material rifle but has cheaper ammo, more rounds and its lighter weight.
For guns that you have to kill ncr/ specific target you can usually pickpocket ammo leave the area and they will unequip the weapon then just pickpocket that.
Whenever I see someone put Christine's over the gobi I immediately know that they don't know what they're talking about Gobi is hands down the best sniper in the game just off of ceiling alone In case noone knows w the right sniper build and perks a gobi can 100% crit for over 350 dmg base not including stealth multipliers
i love the sequoia but i always end up giving it to raul. It's got a spread of .1 in game so he gains an aimbot. His vaquero perk buffs the dps alot, swc rounds also make him more of a menace than graham & his pistol. Oh & he doesnt have any chance of a per bullet reload buggin out like medicine stick, speed loaders are king
Abeline Kid LE BB gun is actually quite good if you have luck 10 and focus on getting more crits and boost crit chance in general. it oneshots most things and can deal with a deathclaw in 2 to 5 crits or less if you are lucky. I wouldnt say its top 10, but its near that imo
Ive found that the 5.56 pistol is a pretty decent option to give to Veronica as a ranged weapon since you can just give her a bunch of surplus rounds, and also for some reason she wont equip That Gun, so the 5.56 makes for a decent and cheap alternative. But i usually have her fight unarmed. It's just nice to have the option of a good sidearm for her, although early on her default 10mm can be serviceable enough.
"THIS IS MY FAVORITE WEAPON IN THE GAME :) Its probaply not the best weapon in the game objectively Actually the weapon kinda sucks And you have to go trough a really annoying quest to get it. And has a really slow reload animation and It doesnt do a lot of damage"
So surprised he didn’t put the medicine stick at the bottom for being single shell reload like he hated on everything else for being. Also where’s the alien blaster? I’m curious as to where you’d rank that cause if you don’t have energy weapons high it’s useless but if you have it high it’s the most op thing ever and it’s really easy to get
the 357 revolver is a speedrunner's best friend since there's a glitch with weapons that reload one bullet at a time that allows you to fly through the air kinda like the horse tilt in skyrim. And you can get a 357 much earlier than a cowboy repeater or brush gun.
I actually like the varmint rifle and usually have it as a hotkeyed weapon. It comes in handy when you run into weak enemies and don’t want to waste 12 gauge or 45-70 ammo.
I was about to yell at you for placing the police pistol that low but the justification of having to play the entirety of dead money so you can use it is actually pretty valid. It's goated as hell but by the time you get it, you'd more than likely had a hunting revolver or a 12mm pistol by your side before you entered.
22 lr pistol is a hidden gem. With 10 luck, +3% crit chance from trait, +5%crit chance from perk, and +50% crit damage perk, your crits gonna fly each second shot with tripple damage, destroying everything on your way. Big magazine, nice fire rate, low cost vats. 22lr and ratslayer, and you finished the game 😎
LMG can hold 100 rounds in a single mag change Fast firing, Guaranteed multiple crits , pairs well with shooting speed/crit/agility builds And…can hold 100 rounds in a single mag change
Smoking some tweak with this list. Trail carbine isn’t bad at all if you want to diversify ammo types, and they’re worth a quite a bit. Even if you don’t like using it, you can still farm them off the legion assassins.
Dunno how the bozar even got above the normal light machine gun since the lmg does more damage and has more ammo both unmodified and especially modified
I was in the 82nd coming back from my first deployment when I found the All American rifle in that ghoul infested shithole of a vault. I was shocked to see my unit patch on the gun.
Hey the service rifle part did you forget new vegas fans fight them selves theres literally people calling a bunch of maniac slavers based which messed up even in fiction
A mi me gusto el top la verdad , la manera que explicas es muy buena , lo veo en español y me pareció que diste tu opinion personal y que armas (para ti) dependiendo tu perspectiva y tiempo de juego ,estoy seguro que te referías a solo armas (de fuego) para la próxima especifícalo y ya , espero el de las de energía. Puse el video otra vez , si especificaste que exceptuabas las de energía , mala mía ! 0:41
To me the Cowboy Repeater and its "upgrades" like Brush Gun etc., are easily the most fun. I mostly play EW because I'm cheap, but if I choose guns, I max out Agility and get Rapid Reload asap for the repeaters. Sleepytime would be my favourite in terms of looks, so many caps tho
When you commented on the 45. Auto submachine gun, I stopped and had to comment. Lmao BROTHER! One of the most iconic weapons ever! "Mafia looking gun" 😂
Well, consider _why_ it's so iconic. It's very heavily associated with the whole 1920s gangster/noir aesthetic - arguably moreso than anything else it's associated with. So, y'know, it's a fair point to make.
I think it’s strategic that the single shotgun fires one bullet, and because it’s so accurate (most accurate shotgun in the game) you can snipe people with it which is always funny.
Shotguns don't fire bullets.

Aside from that, you'll probably be sent there to deal with Cass, but by then, you likely have far stronger weapons, and there isn't really a reason to use a Service Rifle.
"The police pistol is a really good gun in pretty much every metric....but i hate dead money so it goes in the bottom 10" bruh what?
I run a cowboy build in fnv and the single action isn't bad if you have rapid reload
7:17 bruh..... you can get it early in the game, by speaking at the checkpoint (near long 15) to some guy, he will ask to kill some ants
If I took a shot every time I heard “Next up” or “except” I’d get alcohol poisoning half way through the video. Get my boy a thesaurus.
My favorite gun is “Oh Baby!”
The k9000 is supposed to have tracking bullets but ive never tested it
Used that gun plenty of times never noticed it nor does any wiki mention it. Would be a nice idea for a mod though.
@@Enjoyer19111 im pretty sure it was in a terminal entry
@@NPC20567 There was one terminal (found at X-13 if I'm not mistaken) that mentioned using a dog's brain to track the targets not the bullets them selfes. While in game it doesn't exactly track the target it does detect them by growling when near enemies. It also has visual cues like ears and a sniffer module lets call it installed on the gun itself.
@@Enjoyer19111 that was probably it, i guess i just misunderstood what it meant by tracking targets
You have the lmg ranked way too low
Nailgun's nutty solely due to the fact you can get it at the start of the game
Can you rank every energy weapon?
It’s pretty obvious you’ve never had a max lvl character you literally put Fido the upgraded version of the gun over 20 under the un upgraded one. The Gobi isn’t gold and is by far the best vats and sneak/crit weapon in the game and the AMR is awful late game
Agree with everything except the AMR comment. It is easily one of the best SNEAK crit build weapons in the game. Invest in a suppressor, explosive ammo, better crits, etc. and you can one shot a gaggle of legendary death claws from a 1000 miles away. Sometimes with one bullet. When you aren’t using it in a stealth capacity, it does fall off late game and Christine’s Sniper easily beats it
@@slintisbased The modifications for the GRA variant as well as the ammo options are great for exemple the explosive ammunition.
@@Enjoyer19111 yeah it’s my favorite weapon in FNV by far. Tons of customization, ammo variety, and easily the one of the coolest weapon designs. Might not be the absolute best in terms of damage but it’s damn close when used the right way
I was walking around with the AMR(GRA) variant around level 10. i'd say its an op gun but im pretty sure that Gauss rifle near the northern passage is broken if u dump into energy guns and kill the guy w the gauss rifle. but everyone plays differently and i just so happen to go straight for the best guns in the beginning of every playthough, or straight for the casinos with max luck and taking the cazadore route.
Fido is better than k9000, it's the upgrade. standard weapons offer same base damage as gra but can be obtained for free so not sure why large disparity. That machine should be lower as you lock out contrares who is the best vendor in the game. Upgraded hunting shotgun is better than dinner bell
You can get an early game service rifle from ranger jackson after killing some ants for him. He's in mojave outpost.
You don't actually have to kill to get the service rifle, you can just head up to the Mojave outpost and ask one of the guys there if you can help around, you just need to clear the bugs out of the way on a broken down road, then head back to him and he'll give you it as a reward for completing his quest.
You can get a service rifle pretty early in the game at the Mojave outpost from ranger Jackson, he asks you to clear the bugs down the highway
I disagree with dinnerbell being so much higher than the standard hunting shotgun- an almost dlc size quest to get dinnerbell and it's only better quality is a fraction more damage. The standard hunting shotgun is in my opinion better once fully modded.
You're completely right, I just assumed that it was better but looking at the wiki the fully modded hunting shotgun has better spread and holds more ammo. I'll add this as a correction in the description
i kinda lost it on paciencia.
dude, put a little bit more effort. i am not even sure i should make this comment if i really dislike vid quality at this point
Half of the tier list consist of "never used didn't care" argument
chip and kinda dumb
0/10 low on the list
So idk if this is true for every version. But for new Vegas on the ps3 while using any revolver if you rapidly cycle your ammo type all the way through back to your ammo of choice, if you can do it fast enough it will reload the whole cylinder while only doing the animation to reload one round.
You can get la longue carabine without killing that nice guy just pick pocket his ammo leave wait a day then pick pocket it out his inventory
The Pacienca has always been my favourite gun in this game, it's sooo satisfying to use.. I love the sound it does when shooting, I feel like it adds to the "powerful one shot" thingy it has !
I have been on a New vegas kick for a while (since it came out) and ReapeeRon makes top tier list looking at all weapons and looking at stats, ammo variations, mods and unique weapons along with suggested perks and builds for weapons and where to find the weapons. Very good lists.
Great video man. Thanks for keeping the game alive
I thibk you missed one, i may be wrong, but Vance's 9mm smg is my favorite weapon in the game
13:09
The LMG and Automatic Rifle outdamage pretty much all other guns except the unique Minigun. Lol
LMG is also the best gun for 5.56 ammo. (Same situation with SMMG where its the best to use with 10mm)
The ONLY downside of these weapons is their bad spread though.
Pretty nutty list but enjoyed watching it. At least someone paid some sort of respect to the .22 smg.
Gra versions aren’t better statistically, they can just take mods that the base version can’t. Also they have to be bought, and sometimes aren’t worth the money, so that’s a potential reason to use the base version instead
Yeah I think I should've just combined the gra weapons with the regular ones cause it kinda messes up the list having them at such varied rankings even though they're basically the same thing
They will be better once they have all the mods equipped though
😎👉👉
@@dr_mercioyeah and money isn’t really a problem in New Vegas anyways
I believe the non GRA Assault Carbine can take mods, not sure if that's a bug though.
@@GrufflebumI think there’s one mod for the non gra assault rifle, but three for the gra, so the non gra can take a mod but the gra can just take more
Not a terribly practical choice but my favorite was always Paciencia
I'm pretty sure the K9000 Cyberdog and FIDO were made by Doctor Borous in OWB.
Completely unrelated, I wish you could mod unique firearms. Adding silencers, extendo mag, etc. would’ve made some of those weapons much higher on the list.
I agreed with the list for the most part, it was a great video! I would’ve ranked That Gun over Joshua Grahams pistol. It fits the fallout aesthetic a bit better for me.
Some can be modified.
Like the weathered 10mm and mercenary grenade launcher which both can receive all upgrades for 10mm and grenade launcher each. Although weather 10mm doesn't showcase silencer, you can still hear that it's there.
Also DLC uniques usually have upgrades allowed like holorifle, bear trap, OWB guns like dog gun etc
@@danielsurvivor1372 that’s good to know man. I’ve tried upgrading Maria, Lucky etc with no success. Just assumed it couldn’t be done with any uniques. Thanks for the information about the weathered, that’s actually game changing.
WMX (Weapon Mods Extended) My beloved. Probably my favorite mod even if it makes some weapons a little OP
@@moogandacasio I love it man, gonna try it out! Just gotta figure out how to mod 😅
12:41. To answer this, ill say 4 words.
Free rifle for boone
Abilene should defo be higher as if you build it right its crit damage will do as much damage as the anti material rifle but has cheaper ammo, more rounds and its lighter weight.
nice vid mate
Me when see the video :ooooh a ranking video
Me when see .22 silencer pistol above 9mm : this guy is high when making this list
Sneak crits/normal crits are the only reason. The base damage, dps and crit values matter.
@@rements4737 still .22 dmg is very low even when crit
@@gunawanputera6443 with maxed out perks its better all things considered.
For guns that you have to kill ncr/ specific target you can usually pickpocket ammo leave the area and they will unequip the weapon then just pickpocket that.
gobi campaign + Jsp rounds (handloader perk) + crit build = god mode
The other issue with the trail carbine is by the the time you see it in the game, you also see the brush gun which is far superior.
Where gauss?
Guns not energy weapons.
Whenever I see someone put Christine's over the gobi I immediately know that they don't know what they're talking about
Gobi is hands down the best sniper in the game just off of ceiling alone
In case noone knows w the right sniper build and perks a gobi can 100% crit for over 350 dmg base not including stealth multipliers
That one is more of a preference. Just boils down to if want a silenced weapon
i love the sequoia but i always end up giving it to raul. It's got a spread of .1 in game so he gains an aimbot. His vaquero perk buffs the dps alot, swc rounds also make him more of a menace than graham & his pistol. Oh & he doesnt have any chance of a per bullet reload buggin out like medicine stick, speed loaders are king
The Varmint Rifle, when fully modded, makes for an amazing scout rifle.
Abeline Kid LE BB gun is actually quite good if you have luck 10 and focus on getting more crits and boost crit chance in general. it oneshots most things and can deal with a deathclaw in 2 to 5 crits or less if you are lucky. I wouldnt say its top 10, but its near that imo
The CZ57 Avenger with armor piercing is dead wind cavern’s bane.
Ive found that the 5.56 pistol is a pretty decent option to give to Veronica as a ranged weapon since you can just give her a bunch of surplus rounds, and also for some reason she wont equip That Gun, so the 5.56 makes for a decent and cheap alternative. But i usually have her fight unarmed. It's just nice to have the option of a good sidearm for her, although early on her default 10mm can be serviceable enough.
"THIS IS MY FAVORITE WEAPON IN THE GAME :)
Its probaply not the best weapon in the game objectively
Actually the weapon kinda sucks
And you have to go trough a really annoying quest to get it.
And has a really slow reload animation
and It doesnt do a lot of damage"
Is it silented .22 smg
The damage is bad
Slow reload
And get the platinum chip?
So surprised he didn’t put the medicine stick at the bottom for being single shell reload like he hated on everything else for being. Also where’s the alien blaster? I’m curious as to where you’d rank that cause if you don’t have energy weapons high it’s useless but if you have it high it’s the most op thing ever and it’s really easy to get
the 357 revolver is a speedrunner's best friend since there's a glitch with weapons that reload one bullet at a time that allows you to fly through the air kinda like the horse tilt in skyrim. And you can get a 357 much earlier than a cowboy repeater or brush gun.
I actually like the varmint rifle and usually have it as a hotkeyed weapon.
It comes in handy when you run into weak enemies and don’t want to waste 12 gauge or 45-70 ammo.
You can get a service rifle from killing the ants and asking for a reward after in that town past nipton. The dude gives you a munitions supply
Riot shotgun for me no matter what
Buckshot normally but they a little far? Slugs
Robot? Pulse Slug lol
5:12 - not necessarily. The Automatic Rifle is from Dead Money - and the Sierra Madre offers very little in terms of choice for firearms.
Sawed off shotgun with the and stay back perk is busted, it has a ~75% chance to knock enemies over which is crazy good
I was about to yell at you for placing the police pistol that low but the justification of having to play the entirety of dead money so you can use it is actually pretty valid.
It's goated as hell but by the time you get it, you'd more than likely had a hunting revolver or a 12mm pistol by your side before you entered.
22 lr pistol is a hidden gem. With 10 luck, +3% crit chance from trait, +5%crit chance from perk, and +50% crit damage perk, your crits gonna fly each second shot with tripple damage, destroying everything on your way. Big magazine, nice fire rate, low cost vats. 22lr and ratslayer, and you finished the game 😎
LMG can hold 100 rounds in a single mag change
Fast firing, Guaranteed multiple crits , pairs well with shooting speed/crit/agility builds
And…can hold 100 rounds in a single mag change
Smoking some tweak with this list. Trail carbine isn’t bad at all if you want to diversify ammo types, and they’re worth a quite a bit. Even if you don’t like using it, you can still farm them off the legion assassins.
My decision to follow small channels keep giving results. Keep going buddy and sorry for bad english, I'm Italian.
Dunno how the bozar even got above the normal light machine gun since the lmg does more damage and has more ammo both unmodified and especially modified
I was in the 82nd coming back from my first deployment when I found the All American rifle in that ghoul infested shithole of a vault. I was shocked to see my unit patch on the gun.
Hey the service rifle part did you forget new vegas fans fight them selves theres literally people calling a bunch of maniac slavers based which messed up even in fiction
Wow I can’t believe you said you like how the service rifle looks! I hate it with all my heart 😂
Thanks for the video :) 👍🏿
14:29 you can agro ranger sterling then fire the gun out of his hands, grab it and holster your weapon no ncr rep lost
A mi me gusto el top la verdad , la manera que explicas es muy buena , lo veo en español y me pareció que diste tu opinion personal y que armas (para ti) dependiendo tu perspectiva y tiempo de juego ,estoy seguro que te referías a solo armas (de fuego) para la próxima especifícalo y ya , espero el de las de energía.
Puse el video otra vez , si especificaste que exceptuabas las de energía , mala mía !
0:41
This dude barely did any research lmao or have any kind of consistency in the ranking
Stupid people find best guns
True enjoyers use what they like
So the hunting rifle is worse then the sniper rifle even if we count the crit
Chad move: put the upgraded version of the cyber dog gun lower than the base one XD
To me the Cowboy Repeater and its "upgrades" like Brush Gun etc., are easily the most fun. I mostly play EW because I'm cheap, but if I choose guns, I max out Agility and get Rapid Reload asap for the repeaters.
Sleepytime would be my favourite in terms of looks, so many caps tho
When you commented on the 45. Auto submachine gun, I stopped and had to comment. Lmao BROTHER! One of the most iconic weapons ever! "Mafia looking gun" 😂
Well, consider _why_ it's so iconic. It's very heavily associated with the whole 1920s gangster/noir aesthetic - arguably moreso than anything else it's associated with.
So, y'know, it's a fair point to make.
