Fallout:NV favorite weapons

So what are your favorite weapons so far? I probably use the cowboy repeater the most but it’s not necessarily my favorite. I have it upgraded and it shoots a lot of shots for the AP I have so it’s super effective. I like the sniper rifle too, as it's quite a bit more powerful and is handy if there are not a lot of enemies. I just found a new weapon that might be my favorite- Knock Knock. It's a unique fire axe and owns. I have been using the unique super sledge, Ooh Baby, but might now be switching to the axe. I run around the waste land with my rifles, then switch to my melee for up-close battles and in the caves/vaults/buildings. Plus I like all the special moves that the unique melee weapons have. I still want the shishkabob, as I loved it in the first game but haven’t found it in NV.

Also, one of the better guns is the weathered 10mm you get if you got your game at GameStop. It’s a great started gun, and I used it a long time. Makes the beginning of the game much better, especially if you remember fallout 3 and how difficult it was at first to kill anything and level up so you could progress you character.

shishkabob rocks and I find all the stuff to make the cool weapons from fallout 3, but I dont have the recipes, I think you have to buy them like in fallout 3 from people, but I havent even made it to the upper 50% of the map, Ive found 9 books and got 1 for fininshing a quest, Im level 14 and all ready have guns,repair, science,@ 70 and every thing else except enegry weapons and unarmed in the upper 30s and upper 40
cowboy reapter is most used and so is the over and under shotgun, reloads quick and great for geckos and those wasp cazor things

holy granades are the best, mini nuke granades that make a small mushroom cloud

A bit off topic but I thought you guys would like this.



Still haven't played the game yet but this looked pretty cool.

My favorite gun before I returned the game was the "maria", having a 13 bullet clip and around 40 damage. I was able to take it off Benny's headless body.

Seems like everyone went with the Guns skill. I went with an Energy weapon: the Laser RCW. 60 rounds in the clip, at close range it destroys enemies, especially if you have a high critical rate chance. When I'm not using that the Incinerator is where its at. AOE with lingering damage, although its best when not used in VATS.

there is a special sniper rifle i use a lot but i do use the hunting shotgun with mods, that laser RCW weapon, Incinerator is a beast 1000x times better than the flamer. is it me or does the plasma weapons suck?

Plasma weapons are okay for dealing with high DT enemies, but it just seems so hard to be accurate with them.

I upgraded old Knock Knock to the max and it owns! Plus I love the animation on how the character swings it with its special move.

I am just starting to add points to my energy weapons, and they seem to be OK. I just like the guns better. The plasma is really slow, and anyone at range may be complete missed by the shot in VATS.

Who has found the Shishakabob, and where did you find it? That was my favorite melee weapon in the 1st. Then again, there are tons of cool melee and unarmed weapons this time around. I imagine not many people did unarmed or melee in 3, so they made it a bit more enticing this time around. I kind of wish I had done unarmed, as I want to use my "Love and Hate" brass knuckles and the Wolverine Claws.
