Your math was wrong, the AA one star, stacked with the magazine, stacked with the perk makes a total armor bypass 80.8%. You have to take the percentages of the remainder instead of just adding the numbers.
@@TJutin additionally, it’s important to know that DR/Armor in this game is best thought of as two scales on super sharp curves and a plateau. If an attack does 500dmg, and the opponent has 500dr/armor, the attack will do 250. It’s a super weird scale
I have a AA2525 fixer with perf specifically for boss fights. I use a bloodied 2525 handmade with swift for everything else, as i enjoy the free aim way more if i need it. i think the AA with perf does so much more to bosses because the armor pen is additive instead of multiplicative for some reason.
not sure why you would want a 25/25 for mobbing, every time you reload you refill your ap completely. I would rather have a 25/15 for mobbing as even with the faster relaod I still can't run out of ap as with just company tea I will be at 100% before the animation finishes. The only place a 25% less vats cost ever comes into play is on a boss and if using a quad. Otherwise you are just throwing away damage.
Idk how it works with other weapons, but when factoring in legendary effects, but on bows TS does more damage then AA when paired with Exp. I have tried this against Supers, Scorchbeasts and even nuke bosses and the results are all the same.
I could be a result of bows bowing being able to be two shot. They may function similar to explosive weapons where two shot is technically giving a full xtra shot and not the 25% of a shot
I tested with sting and swift and the damage difference was very large even tho it is going beyond 140%. In the last chart shown on Earle (red one) the first two numbers are AA with and without perf
I run full health heavy team support mix I guess the equivalent of a paladin/ healer my favorite thing to use is a two shot vital cremator so I can hit hard and heal allies from a distance (friendly fire perk) or a quad explosive laser pepper shaker with hex barrel and enforcer/one man army so I can cripple most anything I call it Dragonrend since it forces scorched beast to land i can even make a Colossus windigo to slow walk or stun lock players in pvp.
@@TJutin I'm very excited to see these raids. I'm working on a build with Regen on solar armor I'm waiting to see how well it works it may not live up to the expectations I'm aiming for but may prove to be very useful just having absolutely no luck on getting that regen plan only a single box mod.
I tested it in a world server with healing factor and the perks that Regen health during the day but it didn’t seem very good. When you enter combat the Regen slows down A LOT. Which was unfortunate.
@@TJutin that's what I was worried about well dang eh I'll still make a set and mess around with it there's new stuff coming soon too and perk changes so may as well keep experimenting.
EAT SOME SOUP I hate to see high levels who neglect the hunger and thirst meters. You are losing out on bonus HP and AP. Besides, if you are a VATS critical build, you should be eating Blight soup and drink Company Tea among others
I did wonder! Thank you!

Good to know

Well 2525 helps be a hybrid weapon
Have you tested with the Endangerol syringe to see differences?
I have not but I imagine it would just further boost your dmg
@@TJutinStill does, but severely nerfed after the patch

If im not wrong, there is a cap on penetration. So with AA, you dont need tank killer or perforating mag.
I tested with sting and swift and the damage difference was very large even tho it is going beyond 140%. In the last chart shown on Earle (red one) the first two numbers are AA with and without perf
What receiver on the A2525 Perf? Tweaked Auto receiver?
When you get all of the crit bonuses going tweaked is the way to go.
Awesome video. What mods/magazine do you recommend using a quad fixer?
Just subscribed 🙂👍
Thanks! I use perf since the mag size is already large. This juts ensures I will always do maximum dmg no matter the activity
@@TJutin ok thank you very much for the reply. 🙂👍

Im glad they are adding raids into the game so these types of builds can shine even more

Oh yeaaaa lots of changes to mess around with. If you have fallout first I highly suggest taking advantage of the worlds feature
