With release of DLC forthwith, I have begun to wonder how they will integrate new "Perks" into the game with this content. There is no simple list they can add them to, like the 2 prior Fallout titles. Are they going to add a "Rank 11" tier or something? Or are they just going to have them added via item pickups or story line progression a la companion perks in base?

About to start my 4th run of the game. My main is about lvl 80, did every side quest in game. Mainly utility perks, riflemen, crafting, picking/hacking sort of generalist guy who sided with minmen
Then I made a couple throwaways that I consoled up to lvl 30, with a bit of money, ammo, armor and weapons so I can just do the story without having to bother with other shit.
RR character, pistols, stealth and outfits.
Brotherhood, heavy guns, auto guns and powerarmor.

What's a suitable setup for Institute run?

well the radiant quests after you finished are only 80xp. They are easy but they should definitely bump it up to like 200-250 at least.

They count as Settlers, so you can build as many as your Charisma allows per location. Which is why I went for the 3/3/1/10/9/1/1 build so I naturally have 22 settlers per location when I use the exploit so I can buff Charisma with You're Special! and then get the Bobblehead at the Insane Asylum for a fixed 12 Charisma.

>Now lore-wise all ghouls eventually go feral due to degrading brain tissue and shit right?
That's never, ever been stated in the lore at all.
The only thing that mentions it is a second-hand account of a ghoul attack in Diamond city which was used as a catalyst to exile ghouls from the city which is what the Mayor wanted for a long time. It seems dubious that the story is 100% true.

Most of the idea of ghoul becoming feral at some point came from the nuke-break fan series.

Infact there is more evidence with Desmond and Eddie Winter that feral ghouls got too much radiation or too quickly which is what destroyed their minds. In the tape to Eddies girlfriend he tells her they know how to make in a ghoul, implying that its a "just the right amount."

To further this claim the rad bomb the legion used at camp search light was a lot of radiation very fast. Only one person of the entire regiment became a ghoul.
There's also Jason Bright. To become a glowing one a person has to suffer giant amounts of radiation which is why him being sane and glowing was so rare and people saw him as a prophet.

All in-game evidence strongly supports the idea ghouls start feral or not at all.

>>
>>136015213
>Did you upgrade the Tesla Rifle?
Absolutely.

I hate to be a real pain in the dupek, but I have done exensive testing with energy weapons and balistic weapons both now and in the past and found energy weapons to be severely lacking.

For example.
Just yesterday I tested the tesla armor out to see what it could do with my two-shot laser rifle (they changed how two shot weapons worked by the way) and compared it to my violent assault rifle.

On paper, the two shot laser rifle should blow the assault rifle away.

The two shot laser rifle, after you equip the tesla armor does about 333 or more. Compared to the violent assault rifle which only has a 25% increased damage on its base damage and limb damage stats. Its damage is about 174, 175, thereabouts. By all rights, the laser rifle is the better gun except in fire rate recoil and capacity.

This is where paper and reality clash.

When fighting deathclaws, the damage output of the assault rifle blows the two shot laser rifle out of the water. When fighting enemies with IDENTICAL DAMAGE RESISTANCES TO BOTH ENERGY AND BALLISTIC THE SAME THING HAPPENS. An example would be blood bugs in the glowing sea. There are high level blood bugs out there that make a good test subject that scale up to your level.

And this isn't even comparing my two shot .308 combat rifle. Which obviously is better still.

The conclusion? Why do people use energy weapons? Ever? I even compared the plasma rifle. The only time it did more was against the assault rifle. and only just so. Pardon the rant. But every test I run, time and time again, energy weapons are just so ...garbage in this game. Which is a damn fucking shame.

They do, but if there was a substantial amount of radiation in the area he might not have needed nearly as much.

>How did they change the two-shot mechanics? I have a two-shot plasma and gauss, they seem to do the same damage as they always have

Unless I'm wrong. And, I could be.
Before the recent patch, with two shot, it actually just shot one projectile and changed the damage on that one shot.

Now it actually visibly fires two projectiles. If you are firing without aiming down the sights, you can see two different impact points. It's more pronounced with a laser. But its effectively visible on all weapons with the two shot variable now, and the accuracy decrease is meant to impact that.

An explosive minigun or even a minigun really will probably do more with relevant perks.
I haven't tested those, but, I can't help but suspect that they suffer from the same problems. Again, "this number says it's bigger than the other" in fallout 4 rarely applies to how much it actually hurts the enemy.

It would be cool, and plausible. They could simply recreate them somewhere underneath the game world with scripted scenes, a camera system and have them display on every TV. Then again I only have experience with the Source engine so I have no idea if the Creative Engine could pull this off.

Well you tell me -
Why does a weapon that's almost 150 damage more than another do _less_ than the other?

Why on earth do energy weapons just not match up quite as well as their ballistic counterparts?

Is it because I'm using rifles/the rifleman perk with semi auto guns?
That's my best guess. Because we know that energy weapons don't get the 30% reduced armor per shot perk that ballistic weapons do.

But that still doesn't account for the massive discrepancy. I can't find any reason why energy weapons just refuse to match ballistic weapons. It's _infuriating_ because it really limits what I would normally consider viable weapons and tactics. Laser rifles aren't bad at all on paper. High damage, low weight, high rate of fire. But they just refuse to deal as much damage as their ballistic counterparts with much less damage.

Somebody please give me some help on this one (along with the reason my quest in the DLC is bugged.)

It does actually, most enemies are tanky because of their resists not their hp. You're also forgetting plasma weapons which do half ballistic and together with the energy do double most other weapons in raw damage.

It would be nice, then, if the rifleman perk would also apply that 30% damage mitigation to energy weapons in addition to ballistic. Is this a bug, or intentional?

If it's intentional that's just crippling energy weapons, now, isn't it? And it lends itself to the above problem of weapons that are on paper stronger by a wide margin being weaker than ones that aren't. It's, like I said, frustrating as hell when they implement weapons that are on PAPER decent. But as I said.

Outperformed by weapons half that.

Also as for plasma weapons:
174/174
Out damaged by a two shot .308 combat rifle.
That really, REALLY shouldn't be.

Side tangent I'm going to make
While testing I found that using violent legendaries of weapons is fun. Very fun. Crippling a mythic deathclaw's both legs is hilarious and a breeze when you have something with such a high fire rate and limb damage. Likewise, you should try crippling the legs, claws and stinger of a deathskull radscorpion sometime.

You can fire any shit you find you don't want though, do you scrap every piece of shit you find? Does it have a weight when it's inside the launcher? It'd make more sense in an ammo scarcity environment so maybe in survival.

I'm telling you what happened famalamdingdong.

true, maybe it's not a fair comparison; it was a rapid plasma rifle compared to a two shot .308 combat rifle.

All the same. the plasma rifle just couldn't do the same against death claws. Is it because plasma rifles are in that same "not effected by rifleman" thing?

Oh well. I'm gonna have to check torrents soon for the full release of the dlc.

which will HOPEFULLY fix the problem I've been having with the bugged quest.

Hopefully.

I'm also finding new ways to justify the occasional good-natured action on Eggman's part (i.e. helping Travis becoming less of a pansy.)

I surmised the best way to go about doing this is by having him take off all his clothes and cover himself in blue paint, taking on the heroic alter-ego: "The Hedgehog." I like to think that everyone knows it's still him, but just doesn't care.

Stuff like this is bound to happen in the Commonwealth every day.
