Might be a tip, when you're explaining the weapon, shoot it (so to show how it looks/feels etc)
Sorry for the late reply but yeah i wish i would have done that in this video. Ill probably make a improved version on this video in the future. Thanks for the tip and thanks for Watching!
@@Colmatt very informative video though, thanks alot
He showed them at the end at least
^ That, nice informative, helpful video otherwise, just some constructive criticism.
Love the pulse spitter.... you can juice up that things fire rate to an insane level.
It's definitely the most satisfying imo but that Neutron cannon at full blast with the proper mod will absolutely delete anything
@@NobleNemesis range sucks, bullets fall after about 400u. My boltcaster can hit from about 800u+
My favorite set up is the spitter upgraded with the igniter mod and I use it along with the paralyzing grenades which is deployed with the middle mouse button. The paralyzing grenades works well on groups of sentinals close together and also works great on the walkers. It works well on the abyssmal eyes under water as well. It's just my favorite set up.
Thank you, this helped a newbie out big time 😊
This was a really good, succinct overview of all the weapons. Useful for experienced and new players! Thank you very much!!
Im Glad you enjoyed, Thanks for Watching!
Great info, just subbed bc of it. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it, and Thank you so much for Subscribing!
Very helpful video, thank you
Pro for the Neutron is its insane damage against monstrosities and other lifeforms. Did a 'kill monstrosities' mission today in the Nexus, and i was firing fully-charged shots faster than they could surface, killing all of them instantly. Fastest finish i've had on that type of mission.
Yes for sure, especially if you combine it with the new stun grenades, it’s a really powerful combo
I started using the neutron cannon on space hulks, since the AoE blast takes out a group of the little space critters. I also found the crazy damage it did to monstrosities. If you're engaging the beasties at an outpost, you can jump up onto the building and fire down into their spawn point. It'll wipe out the whole wave, rinse and repeat until they calm TF down, or you hit your mission target.
Now it is unusable because they nerfed it into the ground
@@theblademaster9798 It's a bug, there's a patch in experimental on steam, so it'll be back soon
@@theblademaster9798 yeah its trash now blaze jav too.
Boltcaster all the way. It has another "Pro" : sentinal upgrades only apply to boltcaster, so you gain 6 possible extra upgrades. Min maxed, it can fire upwards of 8-9 shots per burts with only 0.25 seconds between bursts and a reload speed faster than time between bursts.
For the purposes of nanite farming from killing sentinels, it is better to use single target weapons like boltcaster or pulse spitter. You do not want to accidentslly kill the seninels that summon more sentinels.
Difference between boltcaster and pulse spitter is that pulse spitter is continuos fire(not burst) but loses shot grouping after 4-5 shots and becomes terrible at mid-ling range with sustained fire. You must burst it at longer ranges, and even then, the bullet spread does not reset to minimum with each burst. Boltcaster always performs exactly the same with every pull of the trigger.
Yeah the boltcaster is a beast with max upgrades on it and can eliminate sentinels instantly. I’ve noticed it can struggle with certain enemies though like the walker or the exo mech, not to say its bad for them just that I think other weapons are better for the bigger enemies at least. Also Thanks for Watching!
@@Colmatt a properly min/maxed boltcaster melts everything, especially when paired with combat scope. I take out sentinel mechs in 4-5 seconds. Walkers: shoot out armor plating on front of hrad unit, then shoot our armor on one leg. Walker goes completely still. A well geared boltcaster will completely kill the walker before it recovers.
@@exisfohdr3904 I’ll have to give the boltcaster another chance then. I didn’t min max for the upgrades last time so that makes sense.
@@Colmatt if you get it right, you'll love it. Prioritize rate of fire, damage, burst cooldown, shots per burst, then reliad speed. Clip size is irrelevant with high reload.
Keep making good conent!
Definitely agree boltcaster is a beast once min/maxed.
Pro tip: have a long range multitool setup seperate from your close range/scanner/general use multitool. I find close range options like the pulse splitter is the greatest all-around tool since every enemy you start a fight with will always try to close distance. If you do wanna have fun with blaze javelin then just swap to your other tool. Dont be like me and waste spots tryna get every weapon upgraded on the same multitool. Get scanner mods - you can make tons of easy money with the right setup just by scanning things. My current reward for scanning fauna is like 400k/scan
New player here, but i found it helpful to set up 2 nice multitools with different options and then swap between them using hotkeys.
I have an atlantid for scanning and mining and a staff for fighting, pairs very nicely
I love the blaze javelin, always have, it looks cool
Thanks for the vid. About to start upgrading my mutlitool for combat on my VR save for the new Interceptor update (theres's gonna be a lot of fighting till I get my S class Interceptor probably xD ... 1 C class so far, haha)
If you're in VR, scatter blaster is king. You can bypass the reload timer in VR by your physical actions, and timing trigger pulls correctly lets you shoot continuously just slightly slower than 'burst mode' without actually triggering burst mode, and thus slowing your fire rate, but there's no cooldown since you're just firing normally so you empty your magazine MUCH faster. Added together with a reload that's a fraction of a second thanks to your quick hands, and the scatter blaster is an _absolute_ *beast* in VR.
But if you're in desktop, definitely pick boltcaster or pulse spitter.
My current scatter blaster is nowhere near the max range for damage potential, and even with mods installed that make enemies _harder_ , I still utterly wipe the floor with them. Two enemy exomechs? Bring it, each one is dead within six seconds.
I need to give that a try then, I have a vr headset but have barely dipped my toes into No Man’s Sky Vr. Thanks for the tip!
@@Colmatt No problem! It's clearly a bug, but it ends up making combat in VR feel more rewarding since at least I'm actually 'reloading'.
The blaze Javelin used to not work on factory doors like the mining laser, shots ignored by the armored door, so I never got into using one. Best use for the Neutron is on Freighters. The AOE blasts kill those batches of little critters fast & hits even when there's some blocking stuff in the way.
The Neutron cannon is amazing because by the time you line up each shot the charge is ready.
I freakin love your logo 👌
Thank you! You’re actually the first person to say anything about it!
very good video ty
There is an extra benefit to the Boltcaster. The '?' upgrades for the multitool ONLY benefit the boltcaster so you can get 6 upgrades instead of the normal 3. This makes it the best weapon in the game imo- I have tried a couple others and they just don't compare to the damage output, I get near double out of my boltcaster than any of the others. When considering AOE, then ya- some other weapons might do more damage if you're dealing with mobs, but that has been very rare in my experience, it's not a game where AOE damage is very important most of the time. I do believe that this is a newer feature and this Vid was released almost a Year ago at the time of this comment- so maybe the '?' upgrades weren't a thing back then. Nice video :D
Pretty sure the Sentinel Shard upgrades also give their benefits to the other weapons too, at least it does seem to increase the fire rate / dps and reload speed of the Scatter Blaster. That said they do seem to trigger the adacency bonus of the Boltcaster, so ideally place the shards near the boltcaster to take advantage of this, and I usually try to place the shards in the middle of the multitool so they touch all the other weapons in case it causes unisted adjacency bonuses.
My current favorite is a combination of the plasma grenades with the blaze javelin. You can dump a lot of those plasma grenades and wipe out a whole squad of sentinels pretty quick. My current setup can take out a Minotaur with three shots of the plasma grenade. There's definitely room for improvement on my S-Class upgrades as well.
Supercharged S Class multitool weapons are insane. With the right build simple basic weapons can transform a multitool into a death machine.
I LOVE the Blaze Jav... it is just amazing, especially with its stub ability. That on there just makes it impossible to beat for long shots. Most of the time I can kill things and they don't even know it happened or where the shot came from. For up close stuff I like the bolt caster cuz with the sentinel and x class mods it's just unbeatable, since the sentinel upgrades do t affect anything else, it's kind of hard to upgrade anything else as much as you can the bolt caster.
Yeah the boltcaster is insane with all the upgrades. I would probably main the blaze javelin only but I find it really difficult to hit the sentinel dogs for some reason.
@@Colmatt omg i also find it hard to hit them.. no. I cant even hit them and it bugs me a heck ton
Fellow blaze javelin enjoyer
Another con to add to Pulse Splitter, if you upgrade the fire rate up too much, the recoil is almost uncontrollable and you waste half of the balls everytime you try to shoot something. And unlike Bolt Caster, it has no Recoil upgrade
This video is exactly what im looking for. I dont want bext weapon build guide, i just want to see the pro and con of every weapon.
if your playing a resource / crafting / explore game, your first multitool will be jammed with scanners andmining tools so best to get a good secondary to use as your BoomzStick
It's almost ironic how big of a buff the boltcaster got in recent updates. I mean sure, it's very unassuming at first, but with the addition of supercharged slots, sentinel upgrades and the right configuration, it can push upwards of 25k-35k damage potential depending on the type of multi-tool you're using.
It's easily the best weapon in the game, and I'm sad I slept on it for so long
Been a fan of Boltcaster over Pulse Splitter. Two-bursting hard sentinels and taking advantage of the bursts to manage ammo is what makes me like it.
I think I’m gonna give the boltcaster another go. A lot of people seem to really enjoy it so maybe I will to.
@@Colmatt beware that fully packed you get about 10 round bursts and it deals big damage. My Boltcaster does about 650 damage per impact and it's beautiful to see those numbers go so fast
@@Colmatt stack burst cooldown reduction, with -90% you shood almost constantly and it does more damage then splitter
Boltcaster is my go to. Insane fire rate burst, huge magazine, each shot does 900-1200 damage, crazy range.
I usually main scatter blaster and keep bolt caster as a ranged precision option. I got a multitool specifically for combat so I can switch between exploration and combat.
Pulse splitter isn't as good as its hyped up to be, the slow projectile speed and spread make it bad for combat where you gotta be on the move.
Yeah the pulse spitter does have its downfalls for sure, the main reason i tend to use it over the other weapons is just because i like to swap up weapons every so often. It something new to me, but i think im gonna try using a maxed boltcaster soon.
I've always loved the pulse splitter, it's just so satisfying seeing all those shots at such a high rof. Really feels like a "Space Gun" lol.
Especially when you have those maxed s class upgrades. It can really shred anything you go up against.
Same, and it matches with a green glowey bit on the multitool I used for combat
@@Colmatt Yah I've min maxed my pulse "splatter". Mows sentinels really REALLY well.
hey man! you should make a video on choosing a multi tool! i recently started nms and have some questions, like should i be running two multi tools, one that focuses on scanning and one for weapons? and which are the best to go for to minmax my damage/scanner.
Thanks for the video idea. I was planning on uploading later today and I’ll definitely be making more multitool guides so keep an eye out👀. Also Thanks for watching!
I would recommend having 3 multitools at a minimum. One for scanning, one for killing, and one trash one for jumping through blackholes with.
Pistols tend to be better for scanning. Alien rifles tend to be best for damage. Alien look way different with crystals for barrels or magazines.
If you focus on just one damage dealing ability, you will have enough room for scanner and terrain manipulator on an S class alien rifle.
@@exisfohdr3904 as far as I know, there are no difference between the multi-tool you start with and a fancy alien or exotic one. All multi-tool of the same class have same base damage. So regular, alien or exotic, it's only cosmetic. I have a regular white and pink S class pistol I randomly found, it's boosted at 9804 boltcaster dps, the highest I ever pushed a boltcaster.
@@pierrepellerin249 I am referencing the base stat ranges when refferencing which multi-tool is better for what purpose. The base values are assigned via a fixed range with RNG. Different types DO have different base ranges.
It is possible to just get bad RNG(Random Number Generation), and sometimes the multi-tools come with or without pre-installed functions(boltcaster, scanner, ect). The numbers you see when first presented with the multi-tool are not a true representation for comparing, as a pistol with a boltcaster pre-installed is always going to appear to do more damage than an alien rifle with no boltcaster installed. The same goes for scanner range. Additionally, any mods you use vary drastically and can make one multi-tool out perform another that should be better. That comes doen to luck and how well you took advantage of adjacency bonuses.
@@exisfohdr3904 Maybe if you use the default weapon that come with the multi-tool they get better stats, that, I have never tested.
I have 2 multi-tools (normal, experimental). 1 has scan, mining and boltcaster. The other has scan, scatterblaster and geology cannon(that thing maxed out is crazy!) Both scanners have 3 mods that give me +10,000% for scanning each fauna, minerals and plants and all 3 have + 50% range or so. I make around 87k for each mineral and each plant I scan and between 250k to 600k for each animal I scan (depend on type of animal). It get the same money on either tool.
Well i love the flamethrower but i know that you cant get it anymore xD
Yeah, I’m hoping we get it back eventually because it’s such a cool weapon
One Huge downside of the Blaze Javelin you missed is against the 4 legged pupper sentinels it shoots the ground between their feet. It doesn't seem to matter where your crosshair aim is on them it always misses them when not shooting from well above or below. That said its still my favorite because for basic sentinels you can mostly point and pop them once charged, and when you get to the larger varieties the stun keeps you safe from them fighting back.
I hate when it happens. Bringing the Minotaur with fully upgraded cannon is like using the uno reverse card against these four-legged buggers. Their laser often just phases through you when you are in your battle mech.
@@Tomato_Dragonzord You have to Pilot your Mech? Mine runs around shooting things on its own while I also shoot things.
Nice vid. Would be cool if you had a bit more heavy combat, to show how the weapon does with lots of enemies. Cheers
I’ll probably do a revision on this video now that multitools are better and now that we can change combat difficulty. So I’ll make sure to include a bigger group of enemies. Thanks for Watching!
@@Colmatt awesome mate👍
Blaze javelin and blotcaster is my favorite. It take some skill but once you get good at it, it's unstoppable. Blaze javelin can deal damage and stun anything I've tried to including walkers. Then boltcaster does crazy dps if you have a lot of upgrades. The 2 cons of this combo however are that it's kinda hard to get used to recoil and aim with javelin and then it takes a lot of slots for ammo (carbon and projectile ammo) and a lot of multi tool slots for boltcaster upgrades. I would recommend having this in a spare multi tool because it leaves little room for anything else. After you get an extra multi tool and practice a bit, this combo is close to flawless.
Big tips right here, I fully recommend boltcaster with plasma launcher, if you get S and X class mods for plasma launcher and upgrade things like damage, explosion radius and bounce plasma launcher is DEADLY, now boltcaster mods are good but until a few weeks ago I recently found a royal multitool at a sentinel pillar, so I made my old multitool (it’s a Upgraded B class rifle multitool) and I use it for combat and royal for mining, scanning, now with my supercharged slots, this is where my boltcaster went beast mode, I put the best sentinel weapons mods, my boltcaster shoots in 12 round burst shots, it honestly takes out drones with ease plus in combination with plasma launcher makes my weapon absolutely devastating and in combat makes my combatants shiver in fear. I named my multitool “M4 Carbine” 😂😂
I love using the neutron cannon as my main weapon with a blaze javelin to support. I use the javelin at any range to stun sentinel mechs and then fill it with neutron cannon shots that are buffed with the amplifier and i can take it down in seconds. It takes a literal tenth of a second to charge my neutron cannon and it has such absurd range despite supposedly being a shotgun. Theres almost nothing I can't kill with it.
absolutely fire vid my guy, really helped alot!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
I’m glad that I was able to help and Thanks so much for Watching!
Ok and do you got a video for how to load a plugin in to the software ?
No I do not, at least not at the moment. I plan on making a video showing off how to install mods and make sure they work properly but I’m not sure if that’s what you mean.
Plasma Launcher was not included. Why not? Because it is a grenade which bounces and is annoying? Great video though.
when you are fighting waves of sentinels, you need to have a fast loading weapon like a boltcaster that shoot's fast, if you don't want to keep switching multitool's all the time, like mining, combat and scanning, use a Alien multitool, it has M-mining, H-damage, M-scanning, all in one multitool.
also for playstyle functionality how the weapon charges and fires and ammo and stability to aim. I tryed scatter balster but it has heavy recoil that can make aiming a pain if modded for damage. i prefer the pulse splitter since it even allow aimed combat in close interiors like those derelic freighters. also some modding alter the weapons behavior slightly.
dependign on how much one increase the damage on the scatterblaster the recoil can stun one upto 3 secodns and even make one flail all over the place what makes it awful if you mod it.
for pulse splitter its a nice smg that you can use even in close corner rooms without being stuned and can easier take out enemies if you want to aim to where you shoot and that behavior is kept even if mod for damage.
personaly i tend to combin pulse spliter with paralyze mortar to give extra stun on enemy and then shoot them while they stunned.
There are more gun types than there are enemy types in the game. Its so weird that there's all these gun varieties but only sentinels and on rare occasion those monstrosity things. I just use pulse spitter on both.
We need pirates drop from the sky with their ship gta style if its pirate system. When you busy scanning, these dude tryna mug you lmao.
On my First game play through the name of my mutli-tool I found is
*Legacy of the sky*.
It was class A.
I don't want anything else.
I use the scatter blaster allways for everything
Definitely one of the better weapons in the game for sure so I can see why. I normally swap between the pulse spitter and scatter blaster
I use 3 weapons, blaze javelin, pulse spitter, and scatter blaster, long, medium, and close range
I don't understand why sentinel upgrades doesn't work with other than boltcaster.
I only always used Blaze Javelin and Boltcaster i love em theyre my style
I'm a fan of boltcaster. I've min/max'd mine on a good rifle and have just over 40k dmg rating with it.
How do you change from bolt caster to scatter blaster?
I can understand why people don't like the Blaze Javelin. You have to be VERY precise to hit something. On a small target, or a very mobile one, it can be a pain to hit them.
I have the small corrupted sentinel spiders in mind. Even when I aim dead center, I seem to miss them.
Big damage means nothing if you miss.
Boltcaster with S class upgrades and Forbidden Sentinel upgrades can’t be beat for me! Best weapon and is OP, but I love that.
Anything s class slaps...

Thank you so much! I was hoping to to hit 200 today!
@@Colmatt nice , stay positive and keep moving forward xD
I like your accent dude! whereabouts are you from? 🙏
Thank you, I live in Tennessee.
@@Colmatt I live in the UK so, accents are very different over here ^^ 👍 have a good one!
Bolt caster with all the upgrades is insane. You will murder things. But it needs to be upgraded. On my low Multi tool it does 17,000 damage. Again, it melts things and at long range with instant bullet hits. No waiting for the shots to get there.
My neutron cannon has upgrades so it charges instantly and the damage number usually reads 5k-14k. Idk how, the damage potential stat on my multitool is 130k
Blaze Javelin paired with Neutron Cannon seems to be the lethal combo?
That Neutron Cannon absolutely deletes sentinels and Horrors that are bunched up- the first with 2-3 the second with just one fully charged shot from one with two decent S-class mods.
I've not tried the Javelin, but it sounds as though its gonna be the one you switch two once you're fighting the walker, or maybe against a hostile player.
Another con for scatter blaster is that it is ungodly loud. Or at least whith my speakers, liek I don’t use it cause I get in trouble for having my volume up. Like I have it at a volume around -25 dcb (don’t know what that means just volume units on my tv) and it’s still way to loud
Yeah it can be a little overwhelming, especially when the game will just randomly choose to increase volume.
Dude, how does your tv negate dcb...
@@seanowens3153 korvax technology, best in the whole galaxy
İs it possible to remove some weapons from my multi tool. Because i added hijacked laser but i feel like its one of the useless and weakest weapon and i would love to remove it from my multi tool.
I have a bolcaster with a stun mortar perfect
This is nice but with multi tool is the best?
You have 'room' for all the weapons, and all the upgrades for all the weapons. lol.
I only really need to use the multitool when exploring derelicts, as planet side the only real thing you fight are sentinels and fightning while inside your mintaur deals with them quite easily.
in my experience, early in the game ferrite dust is WAY more in demand than carbon is. All those metal platings, fixing technologies and so on. Besides, 230 condensed carbon is enough for 500 shots. If you're economical each shot is super cheap.
Nowadays you can add an absurd amount of slots so you can basically install all of the weapons with maxed out modules.
whats the weapon in the thumbnail where can i get it
I got boltcutter with 135% of fire rate. Shooting like serious minigun and the impact is serious high.
Charge shots on the neutron cannon on controllers feel weird to me. Lightly holding the button is awkward as opposed to just holding it like you do in most other games.
Last time I checked I only had to hold it normally, isn't it a problem in your controller?
@@abaddon130nope same issue as the blaze javelin
Why is everything you own so fancy ahhh
Using carbon is not necessarily a plus. Maybe in the beginning of the game, but you can get projectile ammunition recipe easy. And they are very cheap to make.
Hey man how do I get ammunition ?
How do you jump and fly like that on pc?
on PC, press Q(melee animation) then immediately push walking forward button and and space(jetpack) at the same time. Takes a little while to get used to but it's awesome!
I fucking love scatter blaster and i only use scatter blaster on all of my saves lol
What does everyone use against ships when they attack your base? They really should add two turret types. Anti aircraft and anti sentinel turrets are sorely needed now
for pvp i run a nutron cannon and a pulse splitter
Same here, those are by far my two favorite weapons to use.
I've found that I really like the Pulse Spitter with sentinels. And, the Scatter Blaster for Larval Cores and derelict freighters.
Personal choice only. All weapons have their use!
Very True, I even just swap to different weapons from time to time to keep the combat fresh.
Ig reason why everyone hates Blaze Javelin is because it’s not a good primary weapon. Though I found an OP combo with it. Don’t charge it,shoot it for stuns,then finish it with Geo or Plasma Canon. I killed Sentinal Walkers in 5 seconds with this combo.
All of my weapons seem to have a huge recoil. I can hardly aim at anything. Does anybody know if/how I can get rid of that?
You have probably already solved this. You need a Combat Scope to stabilize.
@@MyAmazingUsername
I do have a combat scope but there still seems to be quite a bit of recoil. 😣
where to go to ge the softs im tNice tutorialnking of .
I’m sorry I don’t think I understand the question
#scatterblastergang
The accent 😍
I like the scatterblaster cause u don't really have to aim. I feel like grenades got seriously nerfed cause noone even talks about them anymore
The Blaze Javelin sucks because it's essentially a Neutron Cannon without the AOE damage.
Thanx for the vid, mate. The only problem was there was no sound🙂
I’m sorry about that I’ll look into that, it still has sound on my end but I know RUclips can be wonky sometimes
I had sound throughout
@@minwaton1222 That’s good to know then, because I was a little worried that it messed up in the exporting. Thanks for letting me know!
I had sound also.
Im just thinking about having one weapon on it instead of having to scroll throught 6 odd things
You get 6 Multi-tools, choose all the weapons.
Definitely do that, I was just trying to help decide which one should go on the main multitool because I know most people have one they use more than the others. Also Thanks for Watching!
On the nintendo, I prefer the plasma cannon over the boltcaster as it has less recoil and does not fire in seperate bursts but in continuios shots as it is impossible to aim using a nintendo.
How do you auto aim like that?
Scatter blaster all the way for me
I love the scatter blaster i just wish it was a little bit quieter sometimes. That thing can just about blow out your eardrums.
Am I the only one who uses a scatter blaster primarily?
I have a pulse spitter that braps. 25k dmg
Scatter blaster all the way
For sure one of the best weapons in the game right now!
i have all im a jack of all trades
Why would you not compare them all stock...
I should have added that in the video but most people throw as many upgrades as they can on so I didn’t know if that would have been helpful.
Scatterblaster, I can clear 5 waves of sentinels without my shield dropping.
How to get them?
The weapons you get on the anomaly from the multitool vendor. And the upgrades you just have to jump to different space station and speak with the multitool upgrade vendor to find the proper upgrades for the weapon you want to use.
The Bolt Caster is not good for long range.
tNice tutorials really helped
Glad it was helpful, Thanks for Watching!
Makes a video explains weapons and doesn’t even shoot any of them…. Greattt video…
Neutron cannon was doing 6 damage a shot fully charged on enemies, was legit tickling them
Neutron Cannon with four super charge slots is a monster.
