What's going on guys! This is VinylicPuma, back with another Fallout 4 countdown and today, I figured I would go over 10 of what I think are among some of the best and Strongest Heavy Weapons in Fallout 4. All of the entries i'm going to be going over in this video are compatible with the Heavy Gunner perk, so if you've got a Heavy Gunner based Build or if you're looking to build your character around Heavy Weapons, these 10 Guns might be things you want to check out.
As always, if you liked this video, feel free to leave a like and let me know what you think!

I didnt even know fallout 4 had 10 heavy weapons
technically VPG listed gatling laser and fatman twice, one normal and one legendary variant.
I miss when heavy guns in Fallout was actually useful.. AKA 1 , 2 and tactics. They were 100% beast weapons..
I was going to say that
@@evilgenius97 A two shot broadsider is pretty devastating.
@@smokejensin1662 2 shot and explosive anything is my favorite
My favourite Legendary heavy weapons:
Wounding Minigun - Does almost the same amount of damage as an Explosive Minigun, but ignores resistances and doesn't require you to spec into Demolition's Expert
Two Shot Missile Launcher - Doubles the amount of damage for each shot, better than any of the '50% more damage against X enemies' legendary effects
Big Boy - No need to state the obvious
The Big Boy with the MIRV mod is INSANE
Big boy nuka nuke
big boy bowling ball MIRV? is it possible?
Explosive damage hits multiple hit locations on a targer, which is why it blows ghouls to bits. Bleed is good too, obviously.
caribou companion Since you can pick up the bowling balls that you shoot from a Fat Man with the bowling ball launcher attachment, using Big Boy as your Fat Man of choice to use this attachment with, you can basically get infinite ammo that you can shoot and get a ridiculous amount of caps selling some of your ammo as well.
A thing to note about the Harpoon Gun. If you put the flachette rounds you essentially have infinite ammo. You can no longer pick up missed harpoons, you fire 7 new projectiles per harpoon that each have a chance of being recovered. Basically you use 1 harpoon and can get 7 back.
You should have added at the end what happens when you mix the Big Boy fat man with the MIRV mod, pure destruction.
I am Basegod i remember during my brotherhood raid on the institute, i fired an MIRV into the center of the institute lobby (at the elevator)
I am Basegod big boy with MIRV mod means twelve mini nukes through firing one.
@@averyconfusedknight3004 he knows it...
I made a two shot nukanuke launcher with a two shot effect over it. three shot NukaNuke Launcher!
12
They should've included an LMG as a "low-level" option for heavy weapon builds aside from the junkthrower.
I second this.
I third (?) this
I sixth this
I one hundred forty fifth this
I (number) this
*you need at least level 18 and get the master lock perk*
Me : Laugh in level 1 with dogmeat glitch
Patched
@@francescoragnoni8042 Can still just bring Cait tho
@@francescoragnoni8042 I did this two days ago with dogmeat fully updated
@@francescoragnoni8042 no I did it like 2 weeks ago
Same 😂
9:30 I actually managed to get a Wounding Gatling Laser, and I find it very enjoyable to tear through 2/3 to 3/4 of an enemy's health and watch it drain the rest of the way to zero from the bleed damage. And said bleed damage is per shot, so that is also nice.
Wounding in general is super OP on weapons with high rate of fire. Even just a simple automatic pipe gun can become monstrously lethal with it.
I was really lucky and got minigun with explosive legendary effect on it
Same here, i then upgraded it with a tri barrel and gunner sight, and now it is my main weapon on my heavy weapons character
I did then my game crashed and I lost it but I have a plasma one
I'm not sure anymore both are good
Darkwolf Mb2 I modded and go the mirv mini gun launcher my game flipping broke 😂
I only have the incendiary one
Still a good variant
Remember, you can also add the experimental MERV upgrade to the big boy, which if I remember correctly allows it to fire 12 mininukez at once
The Fat man, Cryolator, Missile Launcher, and an Explosive Minigun all scale off of both heavy gunner and explosive expert.
Vara Satoshi so that’s why the fat man does 2200 damage..
So does the Broadsider
Cryolator explosi?
If I'm completely honest, the party starter would be more appropriately named if it had the instigating effect.
Junkie effect tbh
Yes exactly also junkie works too
"I am heavy weapons guy..."
"and this is my weapon"
7:18 the scene is kinda questionable
@Maximilian Bien you are like a baby watch this
*S U C C*
Why does no one mention Dogmeat being able to get you the cryolator?!
Cause it was patched
@@kyunagames4977 no...
@@user-sl3mt1nz7e Yes it was. It was patched way before survivalwas introduced.
Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad it got patched
WhiteShade 666 how come I did it couple days ago on my modded account?
Actually, the big boy and a 2 shot missile launcher do double damage due to a bug. So a nuka nuka big boy deals 8,000+ damage.
What, no love for the Broadsider? I've found it to be incredibly useful due to it's solid damage, moddability, and the fact that its low splash radius can actually work in your favor in close quarters.
he probs didnt include it on the list cuz of its rare and expensive ammo
@@imtoastedbagel Most weapon vendors, most notably Arturo and Proctor Teagan, sell the ammo, and once you get to the point in the Mechanist DLC where you can build eyebot pods you can send them to find cannon balls for you, usually in quantities around 30 per day. It's quite easy to build a stockpile of ammo.
@@CIoudStriker oh srry, i knew about the vendor part but not the mechanist part, thx
I've been using the Broadsider a lot lately for testing. It's a fun gun and I like the aesthetics and damage, but I'm sorry to say the regular missile launcher pretty much universally seems like the better pick. Missiles are more numerous (though expensive), the unupgraded missile launcher weighs less than the Broadsider, and the damage is better with all perks and bobbleheads. Plus you can get a legendary variation of a missile launcher while the Broadsider is stuck in vanilla. Ammo for the Broadsider can be found with the eyebot from the Mechanist dlc which is nice, but to me the gun is just a fun novelty more than anything functional. The missile launcher can get really heavy if you put then quad barrel, bayonet, and targeting redicule on so if weight is a problem and you want the 4-shot capacity maybe I can understand an argument for the Broadsider.
Also another point I don't see often is that the AOE from a Broadsider shot is quite small, only hitting multiple enemies if they're right next to one another. The missile feels larger and the animation is significantly larger, which I assume means it's got a far greater AOE. I also compare the Broadsider to the Missile Launcher because the Fat Man, while the superior option in terms of gigantic damage, is literally so powerful that you can't fire it indoors without killing yourself most of the time. Plus mini nukes can be rare and expensive.
TLDR: A Missile Launcher with just the accuracy upgrade or the tracking scope is better than the Broadsider.
Harpoon gun is better
Jet is also a good farmer item due to junk items and fertilizer
I am gonna get Far harbor now, but Imma keep my Broadsider
For me Gatling lasers fires like 2x faster when I’m in 3rd person.
Crouching in 3rd person with the charging barrels greatly increases firing speed. As of 2021 this has not been patched.
I have a minigun with the bleeding effect, it takes down deathclaws in 3 seconds
Where'd you find it?
shaun Vela random legendary drop
Isn't bleeding affect only for melee weapons
@@Quartzmage21 what do bullets do
I don't suppose it's wounding? they're basically just nameswapped
The flamer with the wounding legendary effect is actually very good, and can even contend with something like the wounding ripper in terms of damage.
The normal default Rocket Launcher actually saved my ass in my first playthrough. I was doing a few of the minutemen quests early on and so I got into the mission to take the castle. I already figured that it might get tough so I went there with power armour (I usually don't play with it). On my way I came across a Super Mutant with a rocket launcher (who absolutely wrecked my armours leggs) and so I got my hands on the weapon. I just about managed to beat the Mirelurk Queen on my second try (on my first try I didn't realize that she deals crazy damage over time with her acid) and I don't thin k that would have been possible without the rocket launcher. It also helped me destroy Searge later, so I really recommend you bring one with you if you are gonna try and conquer the castle.
You can find one in the castle itself ( the left most room from the main entrance into the courtyard
Would you consider doing a list of the best popular weapon mods for Fallout 4? Would love to see what you opinion is of the Service Rifle or the Watts 3000 mods.
Cheers for the great content, keep up the great work.
I got the explosive minigun. The main problem is that it's super easy to accidentally kill yourself in close range, even in power armor
Huh, after all this time I did not know the cryolator was a heavy weapon. I thought it was a rifle type gun considering how small it is.
Side note: the instigating mini nuke is stronger than the two shot as the the second projectile only does the base damage of the gun, whereas the instigating does double full damage. Also you can find the instigating mini nuke off legendary enemies for free, whereas the only two shot mini nuke you can get without mods is from artero in diamond city for A LOT of money.
Still mini nukes have amazing base damage
I'm rolling with a knee capper gatling laser , so beautiful
Giving the synth companion Sgt Ash always makes me smile.
I love the aesthetic of the missle launcher the way it draws on the US replacement for the flame thrower with the quad barrel is really cool. I want that thing to be a mod. Similar to how I want someone to make a Davy Crockett replacer for the minuteman artilery.
I gave my automatron (Ernie) the Gatlin laser and a nail gun attachments. That little robot wrecks everyone.
5:37 I always thought the party starter should have the instigating effect instead. Party starter. Fight starter
I always think it does when I see it in KL-E-0's stock and then I get disappointed.
Hey random question in a more casual play through or even not so casual do you think a intimidate and wasteland whisper load out work?
12:33 the way you said “useful” was hilarious🤣
Hey man thanks for making Fallout 4 video. I really appreciate it 👍👍
4:05 - Plus, it benefits from the Demolitions Expert perk.
Admiral's Friend is my go-to heavy weapon. Since you have to go to Far Harbor to get more harpoons I at first neurotically worried I'd run out, but converting it to flechette ammo means you usually get back more than you fire. The only drawback is your new super shotgun loses its utility as a sniper rifle. This weapon is so good I'd carry two if I could, one with normal harpoons as a sniper rifle and one flechette. The Broadsider is also surprisingly fun if you can keep it in ammo.
If you get a flamer with the incendiary or explosive effect it makes it fire very long ranges so go for that if you want a good flamer
My question with Aeternus, does it require two fusion cores because it drains the first one, and then whenever you use it again, it just has unlimited ammo, or does it always have an initial drain on the ammo when you start to fire?
I didn’t know that the minigun and flamer had damage or range.
TurtleSnipers same, i thought it was just a gun that kills things immediately
??????
what I actually try to get is a harpoon gun with the unlimited legendary weapon that uncaps its magazine size so you can fire 300 damage shots left and right with no issue in fact it can probably be counted as one of the strongest weapons in the game due to the damage per shot and the fact that you can fire them in somewhat quick succession
I wanted one since I first used a harpoon gun but I'd rather a fatman with the limitless effect so I can effectively kill things with rapid fire bowling balls... I miss the rock it launcher.
In one of my playthrough's I actually found a rapid Gatling laser on a legendary raider, took a few tries to get it from him
How do I get that cool sight on the gatling laser?
Wounding is my favorite effect. Enough said
I found a staggering flamer, really fun to use
I've managed to get an instigating missile launcher on a couple of non-DLC playthroughs and with the associated perks, it works well; although, I only play at very hard, not survival level. I've spammed it from higher-level ghouls at: Vaultec-HQ, Turn Pike Tunnel, and Hubris Comics.
2:20 A Kneecapper Minigun is also quite useful as a support weapon
I once almost got an explosive minigun from a gunner but he kept killing me and eventually my saved game reload reset the legendary spawn.
Admiral's Friend + flechette upgrade = harpoon ammo *creation*
/such a fun heavy weap too
//so very satisfying to stick a mirelurk right in the eyeball BOOM
Forgot the Tesla cannon, it’s pretty solid with up to about 84 damage and it’s aoe and can crit. Found it on an enclave xo2 ate the end of the pyro questline at the fort in the glowing sea. It’s pretty versatile and has another option which pumps its damage over 100 and you can change it from an aoe to a chain between enemies
The Fatman I just found. 2 shots for 1 ❤ mini gun with limb damage is awesome for bosses
What about the experimental mod for fat boy, able to shoot a 10 smaller nukes? Or does that not have a good damage?
Can you do a video on the FakeNCR mod?
I found an explosive harpoon gun and with flechete was it a devastating weapon which also never run out of ammo
7:14 ok that was sick
Ok so i gotta ask. Is there an explosive gatling laser? Like it's it even possible? (I mean without mods)
Explosive minigun
*NUFF SAID*
Fellow Crusader, deus Vult! Explosive Gatling laser...
@@spyman2899 oh shid oh fard
I got it and I name him “Five seconds to live”
Got a mod for the minigun to make it viable with recievers. Still a meh weapon to the GL but it's a much better progression for a heavy user.
You can get cryolator way earlier. Cait can pick any lock for you.
Tysm lol
Thanks for the video! You excited for the new fallout game coming soon?
So I got a fat man with the instigating legendary effect and I was already a heavy gun build so I had heavy weapons and bloody mess perks and after picking up the explosive expert I've been able to kill anything with one with
I had an institute character that used the Final Judgement with the standard barrel for a few simple reasons. 1: the fire rate is insane. 2: I had WAY too many fusion cores, and was not a power armor character.
You actually raise the dps by changing to charging barrels because of the quirk with the legendary effect, and you gain a bunch of practical accuracy with the lower fire rate
What level can Gatling lasers spawn on legendary enemies
The minigun can be very good if you can get one with a useful legendary effect like explosive, wounding, or even furious.
For the cryollator you can also go to the vault with dogmeat and tell him to search while near the cryollator and he should take it out the box
What I love about the Big Boy launcher is adding the MIRV attachment, just for sheer spectacle. Go to Dunwich Boers and launch one or two shots and it's just fucking Armageddon.
So many gatling lasers in this list
If you side with the Minutemen you can get the Final Judgment as well. You only need to be hostile to the Brotherhood, which can be achieved by many means, including attacking one of their npcs.
How about the broken damage the cryolator does like on paper it's basic but snowballs on the ground it melts or anti melts everything plus it gets boosted from big guns and explosives nothing does much consistent high damage at that gun
I actually got my hands on a unlimited harpoon gun and it is amazing.
Is a relentless minigun any good?
I got an instigating rocket launcher would there be any better rocket launcher legendary effects? (also a two shot gauss and staggering flamer)
Two shot imo
Mighty, Assasins, Instigating and even never ending are all better than 2 shot.
Many people think 2 shot doubles damage but it doesnt. What it does is add a second bullet which has base damage and makes the weapons overall accuracy and recoil worse. Increased recoil, decreased accuracy, a poor damage boost that only applies when both bullets hit and higher chance of being detected due to shitty stealth mechanics is not worth it.
You can get damn two shot on a rocket launcher if you could the targeting computer mod would make it overpowered as Hell and mighty, never ending and assassins are all worse than two shot much worse mighty 25% damage increase compared to 60-80% from two shot.
My knife has more damage then a fatman lol. Op melee build
If you go into the vault with dogmeat and get him to search for items he will glitch the box and get the gun for you
There’s a battling laser in the basement of bunker hill for anyone who needs one
Could you get final judgement with pickpocket.
You can actually get the cryolater right after you pick up dogmeat.
If you go back into the vault, lock yourself and dogmeat in the room with it, talk to him, ask him to fetch, and ask him to find a weapon, he'll phase through the box holding it and pick it up for you
Were is the Throughslicer in survival mode perfect because it need no ammo.
Where*
Throatslicer*
And this video is about heavy weapons not melee weapons you fucking moldy cabbage
How does your aeternus shoot so fast? Mine was slow when I first got it
Might have started with charging barrels
The aeternus is my go to
I have explosive minigun and I really melt even the thougher enemies in seconds yea I have demolition perk lvl2 and also heavy gunner lvl3 but is insane haha
The best heavy weapon is definetely the Gatling Laser with the Staggering legendary effect. The fire rate is so high, enemies are locked into place.
Staggering on flamer is also very amazing
Can you be my father because I totally think you are right literally it's one of the best weapons in the game in my personal opinion and I no fool I have a level 79 characters working with the Brotherhood of Steel and I literally bring the Gatling laser with me practically anywhere Nuka World far Harbor anywhere
Would be cool to see you branch out a bit. Lore videos or playthroughs or unique builds etc. Just an idea.
One of the extended napalm flamer carried me from lvl 5 (iron surguswork) to lvl 50. It uses flamer fuel, and bolts go long range with the same flame effect. Glowing sea was a breeze on lvl 10. Never use power armor, yet got +- 40 stacked at sanctuary by now. Same goes for x01 how is it rare? Found already 7 by the time i hit lvl 15
I killed a legandary raider ang got a crippling flamer so im just saying
I have a nuka-nuke launching big boy.
It is godly.
you can get the cryolator as soon as you have dogmeat, just go down to the vault and tell him to grab it.
me with the explosive legendary minigun:
*laughs in war crimes*
It would have been cool if they had an extremely rare unique variant of the Fat Man called the H Bomb that drops randomly on legendary and named enemies and only when you are at level 40 or above and it fires a mini nuke that has thrice maybe even four or five times as much explosive power as a normal mini nuke since instead of an atomic mini nuke, it’s would be a hydrogen mini nuke (or maybe you can buy it at the prydwen for like 60000 or above caps)
The heavy weapons are mainly "fun" weapons later in the game, when you're pretty much god-like. They can be META, depending on your build, but they're usually limited by ammo or quest locked. Since caps usually aren't an issue in the later game, even buying the ammo is no problem. Like I said, they're just fun, although on survival they can also be tricky. Wearing top tier power armor and wielding them just feels right.
3:08 and lone wanderer perk lvl 3
You can obtain the incendiary version from the big dig at the end called the the ashmaker
It sucks
I got so lucky with a explosive minigun and with heavy gunner and demolition expert it does 60 damage without the tri barrel mod
Enternus from the hula world dlc has to be the best heavy weapons because it literally doesn’t need ammo only one fusion core because of a glitch you don’t need to reload and the glitch makes it op but you have to get it by an enemy that uses it and that is a former bos member
I was thinking a legendary gatling laser with explosive effect would be THE best Dps ( other than a big boy with the nuka nuka mod but mini nukes are easily the rarest ammo in the game and do not seem to be vendor sold or found in weapon caches) also the Lazer gatling with the two shot effect would also be in the top three I'd imagine, but still explosive rounds are extremely OP just be careful of friendly fire and self harm with close range.
If you can actually get Dogmeat into the vault with you, that glitch will get you the Cryolator early on.
Found a Instigatin Fatman, called it The One Who Knocks, if it is outside i am using it against enemies.
I'd say the best is Gatling Laser, it's better than the Minigun in every way, it is lighter, deals more damage, is more accurate, and the ammunition is cheaper but it can be quite expensive.
Fat man is good too you should shoot it whenever if there is some tanky guys or if there is a lot of people I'd say super mutants is worth shooting the fat man but I wouldn't recommend shooting only one with fat man I'd say 6-8+ mini nuke exchange is worth it but it's very expensive especially the ammunition it needs lots of caps for 1 SHOT but it's worth it
Flamer you can get it from like an ironworks or something I forgot the name I don't really know the price of it and the ammunition but it's really good
Missile Launcher kinda like Fat Man but worse but still pretty good and you can use it for maybe 1+ super mutants so if you find a super mutant or 2 I'd say you shoot it
Use sergeant ash to cripple, then pull a melee weapon and finish
never ending fatman with MIRV both crashing on the enemies life and my pc XD.
How cool would it be to have a mini gun that could be upgrading to use ANY ballistic ammunition, to increase damage. Obviously it would require high-leveled perks, so you can’t get them right away. But it would make it possible to get stronger and stronger as the game goes on, however the ammunition types are harder and harder to obtain in large quantities. So there would be pros and cons to doing so, which I think all of that combined would manage to keep it balanced. You may do more damage, but you’re not gonna want to just blow through 600 bullets of .50 caliber ammo in 30 seconds… I think it would make the gun so much more viable, and versatile.
i wish someone could make a mod for the combat shotgun so it can fire slug rounds instead of buckshot..
Someone edit this to EVERY time he takes a breath.
YES
But to be honest he is talking constantly for about 10 minutes
So why don't you try that?
Be cause I suck at editing.
I have a question why use shredder minigun if you don’t use the shredder and fire bullets 🤦♂️
