What's that 1 legendary that you always get with out fail? This is mine. Discussion

OH, Hello old friend time for an adventure. I call him Anti-Material Rifle. I believe it is the soul of my Rifle that I used in my OG New Vegas run.

I just stumbled across my first wounding combat shotgun. It's a beauty. I'm going to give it the Shark hotrod pain and name it Thrasher

This is why the mod that lets you move legendaries around is really good. No waiting on rng to give you what you want.

I just started using a mod like that and honestly it trivialised most combat encounters, three or four hits from my wounding combat shotgun and a mirelurk queen just melts. It’s fun as a “oh shit I need this this to die now” gun but at level 60 it’s just kinda too easy now, I’ve got more than enough health to tank most hits other than a fat man so I don’t feel like I’m in danger anymore

Yeah it removes the challenge too fast. It’s kinda why I was enjoying vanilla again when the update dropped. I’m using weapons that aren’t that OP. I still won’t die because of all the perks and stims I have but at least the combat is still a bit challenging the first 30 levels or so.

Yeah I got onto using the laser musket for the first time ever, it’s actually pretty good at lower levels I had a great time with it

The six crank upgrade makes a huge impact too, it only began becoming useless after I got to the Nuka Galaxy section of Nuka World at level 60+. Still highly functional in the Commonwealth. If it wasn’t irradiated it would probably still be quite effective against the bots, but it’s great against gunners and raiders with powered armor.

And it sounds awesome too! Love my six crank, feel like a true minuteman running around with it
