I have to disagree about one thing I think the survivalists rifle should be higher on the list I get you're going off base damage but that thing is a force to be reckoned with
Yo I've played this game for the longest time and I've never had bullet time while aiming. How'd you do that and please don't tell me it's a mod.
Just a heads up your Link for Patreon is broken :)
@@JustPablo5000 Killcam can be set to first person in the menu which will slow time after a kill that ends combat, You can also use the turbo chem to activate it whenever!
You forgot to mention that the gobi rifle has a MUCH higher critical hit rate. On a critical hit build, every 1/3 shots will instakill seemingly anything.
It brings happiness to my heart to see New Vegas content in 2019
Ikr, i even got back into playing it again
Mustafa Amin Same! I’ve been playing this hame since the 5th grade now I’m in college
Mustafa Amin me too.
@@cobaltbluestickman5557 Same here, just began the Honest Hearts dlc
This game will never get old! mark my words+++
the bent iron sights on the Survivalist's Rifle was intentional. It is also intentionally still aimable. It was a design decision.
I enjoy it
We know
I don’t think he was trying to say it wasnt
Personally, I find it easier to aim with the survivalist's rifle than the service rifle. It has a clearer sight picture and still has a center point to aim with
Feels heretical to fix the the front sight on the survivalists rifle (even when the sight kinda works better than the standard service rifle seeing how the sight being bent leaves the the right post sits almost perfectly on point)
Your character pointing to places on the map is so cute
Gayyyyyeeeeee

"This is also the only unique sniper rifle that comes with a suppressor..."
[Chuckles in Ratslayer]
Eli M the ratslayer is a Varmint Rifle the Gobi campaign Scout rifle is a sniper rifle the COS rifle is a sniper rifle the only two unique sniper rifle variants in the game and only the COS out of the two has a suppressor I am aware that because of the scope and its capabilities to fire at long ranges in the real world it would technically be considered a sniper rifle but the sniper rifle weapon category has three variants sniper rifle the standard one Gobi campaign Scout rifle and Christine's cos silencer rifle
I'll tell you what though, Ratslayer is sooo good early/early-mid game... That's if I don't main a Service Rifle, which I normally do
The only good unique sniper rifle with a suppressor.
[Chuckles in Christins cos sniper]
Christine's CoS Rifle can easily kill a Deathclaw with one shot if you get a sneak critical (easy with the silencer) and a headshot.
Fully customized Anti-Materiel Rifle with an explosive .50 loaded. Some perks for better sneak attacks, accuracy and critical damage. I'll tell tou that nothing can survive, on longer range just pop a Steady and aim for the head.
The bloatfly was strong but u can beat him pretty easy with sneak attacks just hide behind something and peak out to take a shot
Some psycho, steady, and turbo, holy shit that enemy is FUCKED!
Don't forget the perks for extra explosives damage. You can turn deathclaws into hamburger.
@@domonator5000 what does turbo do
@@taylorchilson6806 it slows time time for user, like fallout 4 jet. And Then rocket in fallout new vegas slows time and restores action points, I think you can make it at a campfire with a high enough survival skill

I actually love the Brush Gun and Medicine Stick so much, that a few years ago I went out and bought me a Marlin 1895 in .45-70!
Was gonna' use it for deerhunting, but the recoil is a bit much and it's not very accurate, so I ended up selling it.
It was fun to shoot though, and a head turner at the range.
That's so cool!
Did you get it in stainless? I fell in love with that gun sooo much. I had one in my hands and almost bought it. But held off. Then read about all the problems it had, poor quality in manufacturing, and saw it first-hand, in every one i looked at. Finally got over the urge to own one, simply based off not wanting to take the risk on it. Wanted it simply for bear protection.
breathe and squeeze they’re good rifles now, there were a lot of problems a few years ago, but they ironed out these issues now. I brought an new one a few months ago, have been incredibly happy with it!
I feel ya,those rifle are more mid to close range.They kinda feel like a anti-thief weapon more then an hunting one.But ive downed a few deers with one.
Big Mr Hehe! Theft shouldn’t be punished with death, but I imagine that gun would get them running at least! 😂
this is kind of random, but this one of the most wholesome comment sections i’ve ever seen.
Nah, this is what the Fallout NV community is, One big happy family, "Ringa Ding Ding, Baby," Ya dig?
Ironic for a video dedicated to deadly weapons.
@@Nick-qf7vt Same thing with actual gun communities on UA-cam. For the most unimportant thing people will go rabid though...
Lol

Yo plz don't quit on fallout we all love your content

Joking Joker that’s the truth
Yeah dude these videos help calm me down always occupies my mind and gives me something to do after
Wish I spent more time in fallout 76...
Quit fallout 4 though that game is a piece of shit
I was always a big fan of the Rat Slayer. Common ammo, suppressed, night vision. Great for being sneaky at night or in caves and buildings. I think its also got good accuracy and a 5x crit multiplier.
Dude the crit multiplier was nuts
@@CoreyandCrew Ratslayer, improved critical perk, bloody mess perk , elite riot gear, lucky shades, Boone's beret, and match ammo, that thing is an absolute monster.
I mostly hunt at night...
Mostly...
Edit to add: I love the suppressed .45, since a M-1911a1 was the first gun I ever bought, and the can for it was my first tax stamp.
@@jackstecker5796 with just 20% crit rate you have 100% crit rate with the weapon. Absolutely nutty
@@Montanajj Useful for when you want to turn Legion heads into canoes.
P.S. if I get in a tight spot, switch to the All-American and start laying hate. That thing spits hot fire.
One of my favorite guns so far
I'm a man of culture. Whenever I see something related to Fallout New Vegas, I like.
You're a man of low standards. Not one of culture
@@girf4233 yeah lol
I see we have a free thinker over here.

@@girf4233 Your standards are even lower.
Medicine Stick? More like: Medicine SHTICK. I love this gun especially paired with Ranger Squoia
The medicine stick was always my favorite gun in fallout new Vegas
Meh keep your old cowboy crap, gimme the survivalist rifle and a 45 auto pistol any day.
@@delta2372 I see your a man of not liking to one shot enemy's fine take your hunky survivalist rifle. I prefer to one shot death claws
@@breakingben4450 uh you take the grunt perk and those guns kill anything that move Soo yeah keep your old cowboy crap
Only one problem with that pairing: Both use the same ammunition. Which in my opinion would likely compromise your combat effectiveness.
The survivalist rifle is the only reason I was able to get through lonesome road last time I played
Love that rifle, the capacity is a little rough but everything else about it is worth it. It's probably my favorite weapon in all of fallout
Same here.
I’m a firm believer in pairing the Survivalist’s Rifle with A Light Shining In Darkness. Those two put together are like peanut butter and jelly.
For me it was lucky
It was always a tie between this machine and the survivalist rifle
Hearing the "PING!" from this Machine reinstalled New Vegas on my PC.
How dare you uninstall Fallout NV! Hehe, i am just kidding, do what ya want.
Personally, I like to keep New Vegas installed on practically everything I own as a fallback if I run out of new things to play. I may not touch it for a year or so, but when I get back into, the hours just melt away.
I sadly have the stock version of the battle rifle still a good weapon hands down especially for how cheap it is but the reloading ping the battle rifle makes is just the most satisfying thing I've heard
The M1 Garand.
Even Jesus would have used one of those if he was so violently inclined
@@MadastheHatter13 I mean He did chase people with a whip and encouraged Peter to buy a sword soooo... *PING*
"Another downside is the rarity of the ammo".
Meanwhile: after finishing Lonesome Road with 587 normal 50.C and 341 AP 50.C
Where did you get that much normal .50 MG rounds? I only managed to get at least 100 normal rounds, and about 1000 AR .50 MG rounds.
@@elifoflygen8795 If you have the scrounger perk, finding rare ammo becomes a lot more easier.

@@fabanano6158 l hate siding with ncr,l sided with caesar's legion,l may do another playthrough to side with the ncr.
My personal favorite for medium range and rare long range battles is the survivalist rifle it hits hard and with my perks it is a very useful gun
crimson scar gaming i love the fact it can be easily used as a hip fire machine or for decent accuracy ADS, plus it’s got that infantry/grunt appeal to it.
what perks,you mean that perk who slows the fire rate to make the gun more accurate ?
@@mgm-jt8nd Trigger discipline trait, you can choose to get at the beginning of the game while making your character.
@@owen723 l messed up,l remembered that.
@@mgm-jt8nd Hey it's fine my friend.
"The survivalist service rifle has bad iron sight"
Me, who uses zoom in aiming: I have no such weakness
For me it was easier using the messed up sight than a lot of normal ones
The Honest Hearts DLC, is one of my favorite ones ever, and I always make it a point to grad Randal Clark's rifle as soon as possible, and to always take a moment to spend a minute with him, and remember his story.
Also, before going to Zion, I always have to have a scoped hunting rifle , and if I can spare the caps, The Medicine Stick. Because, asthetic is key.
Oh and a .44 magnum , because I've discovered, Yao Guai are allergic to cowboys, and their firearms :)
DPS RIFLES
also, if this series takes off, you should do your personal favorite weapons, go round off the series before you move on to the next one (of countdowns anyway)
But how do you punch the Deathclaw if you're using both your hands to hold a rifle? 🤔
Easy punch it with the gun
Install a gun bashing mod for new vegas
Use the bullets to punch through its skull
Duh you use your third hand
Use your face?
It's funny how when you're in 'Danger' state when engaging a blind deathclaw they're no longer blind an know pinpoint where you are😂
It's because if your blind all your other senses improve, notebly smell.
HellsSelectiveAiden69 and from what we see the main character has not taken a shower,
Ignores warning to avoid the 15 at the beginning of the game, shoots Deathclaw with a Varmint Rifle... *Chuckles* I'm in danger.

@@thecourier9188 water purifiers
Like the water in Massachusetts doesn’t seam as badly irradiated as say Appalachia

Christine's rifle saved my life often in Lonesome Road. I wore the beret that Boone gave me, as well as Joshua Graham's armor, and those two combined with the bonus is critical chance, I could practically one shot a deathclaw when pulling off a sneak attack. It was amazing.
Best sniper! Easily repaired with the jury rigging perk. I use it the most after the Medicine Stick.
@@dougmedina4619 gobi scout is better imo sure less critchance and damage but more crit damage alone gives it better dps even without the faster fire rate
@@denizmergen418 I forgot about this comment. I'll have to start a new game. 😆

i mean,,, how could u not love the *cling* sound from "this machine"... it's music to my ears
By the way that's just m1 garand pings, sorry i didn't realize how suspicious or spammy that might've sounded.
@@owen723 the coolest gun tbh, irl and in-game :)
@@mateussantos152 I personally prefer the hecate two and 45-70 govt revolver, but yeah this machine is badass.
I remember back in the day there was a glitch w the anti material rifle where if you had incendiary ammo, you hits vats, exit, and the target was automatically set on fire. You could kill npcs with no fame lost.
10:04
after the shot...
"My god it's Jason Bourne.."
Paciencia is my favorite. With a high luck character it’s on a whole new level.
Paciencia might take the cake as my favorite weapon in the whole game.
The name works on so many levels; it takes patience to get it, patience to learn how to properly use it, and patience to actually use it effectively.
Also, I cannot stress enough just how much of a bonus the lack of a scope is once you’re accustomed to it, being able to see a larger picture of the battlefield while ADS really plays well with the methodical play style Paciencia shines in
@@jakeroberts7445 It work's so well! Since you have to be mindful of your shots, getting a wider view of the enemies lets you choose better.
Best part is it being able to use HP which the AMR can’t.
Double damage against all creatures aside from Deathclaws and Radscorpions. With Better Criticals and Lord Death I did 1600 damage with a sneak critical.
Gobi is better
This is one of those games that just keeps you coming back even after you 100% it
My favorite has gotta be 'This Machine'. That 'ping' of the M1 Garand clip ejection, I have been in love with for as long as I can remember.
8:34 if you don’t have enough caps for this gun an easy way to get it is if you have the Dead Money DLC try to sneak your way out of the vault with the gold a few of those bars should be enough to buy it.
Or you could sell the bars around the villa/in the casino for pre-war money. 1 pre-war money = 10 caps. You do the math.
My weapon list is based on how they perform and how reliable they'll be, not based on power
All-American
Ranger Sequoia
Survivalist's Rifle
Dinner Bell
Thump Thump
imo upgraded Hunting Shotgun is better than Dinner Bell, 3 more shells in the tube and tighter spread make up for that slightly lower damage.
YES the All-American is my choice every time
@@agamer203 It's a really good rifle and I want to like it, but I'm a dragon with video game wealth and having a "quantity over quality" ammo type makes me feel like I'm wasting bullets even if I hit every shot.

Like the most bang for your bullet load out.
@@agamer203 Ok but gobi scout is literaly the best gun in the game

Have you seen how fast a crowbar can shmorp a raider??
Ah the Medicine Stick... I love that beastly lever action. I would have put it ahead of the Anti Materiel Rifle since it can be used much easier in close quarters so it's usable in more circumstances. Plus it's got a sweet dream catcher pattern on it. But this list is about base damage.
Medicine stick op but
Reloading ammo pain in the ass took long enough,especially when caesar legion surprise attack everywhere
Better stats, Rapid Reloading Perk, taking cover while reloading in combat, making the shots count so you use less rounds per Legionaire, etc. All ways you can avoid this problem. The only real issue I've come across with this gun is the rarity of ammo at times (which can be worked around with the ammunition bench and ammo conversions, and the Perks needed). But again making sure your shots count, using VATS if your aim isn't up to the task, solves much of that.
reloading match ammo for my rifles in new vegas brought me to reload match ammo in real life... and i love it.

"Have you seen what one of those anti-materiel rifles can do to a Deathclaw?"
Paciencia also has a substantial zoom when looking down the iron sights. Watch at 5:38, you'll see the zoom despite there being no scope. This means you get all the benefit of a scope while still having a great view of the fight.
The survivalist rifle carried me through honest hearts and a bit of lonesome road
Paciencia is/was my favourite of these 10 for its crits especially after any crit bonuses from gear or perks (which if properly allocated, can exceed the damage of the AMR if I remember correctly).
The lack of a scope is actually a BENEFIT on the Paciencia too, because it provides the same magnification as other scopes in the game while still providing a wider field of view for situational awareness. With fast reloads, the 3 round magazine isn't even an issue either.
The core of my kit is "All American" + anti-material rifle.
the All-American always REJECTS my enemies
you're a legend if you get this reference
@@agamer203 l get that reference
DEMOCRACY
Mine is "This Machine" + Automatic Rifle.
All American is always one of my favorite rifles, watching someone’s head pop either from up close spray and pray, or from a precision shot at range is so damn satisfying
I like it. Gets me in the reminisce feels. Well laid out and informative.
Antimaterial rifle: am I a joke to you?
Amr is fun but eh, better rifles on this list honestly. Also it’s materiel, not material
Did you know I still watch your old guides to this day ?
For the Trail-Carbine, you can actually acquire it without level requirements from one of the houses in Novac. (Can’t remember specifics, it’s near the dinosaur.)
Pretty sure it’s Ranger Andy’s Bungalow, don’t quote me.

Unique weapons that take a challenge to obtain >>>> unique weapons bought by bankrupting a casino
@@fafofafin absolutely agreed, you have the sense of accomplishment from doing it that way.
I've played so much of fallout New Vegas that I have a very specific loadout that I run with after I get all the weapons unlocked. Anti-material rifle, survivalist rifle, medicine stick, pacienta, Gobi desert rifle, Benny's gun Maria or A Light in Shining Darkness and the CZ 75 minigun you find in the devil's throat. Since you can upgrade the anti-material rifle with suppressor it makes it so that Christine's sniper rifle that is suppressed is basically useless. In all honesty if you're worried about stealth in your sniping you want to hit as hard as possible to make it so that your target doesn't discover or detect you. The Gobi rifle is a perfect rifle for long-range use when the anti-material rifle is not needed. Plus you really don't need the anti-material rifle unless you're taking out larger and harder to kill enemies or high-level enemies. The others are pretty self-explanatory. Medicine stick has its powerful rounds and with CZ 75 and it's powerful rate of fire with the rounds that lays down makes it so that your automatic is overly powered. I carry pacienta and the survivalist rifle as backup weapons. If say one of my other weapons is low on health or I'm running low on ammo I have a couple other rounds I can use via my other weapons.
And when it comes down to having not enough ammunition if you take a skill point and use it very early on in a scavenger perk you can find large amounts of ammunition in ammo boxes all over the wasted. The 12.7 round is very rare until you get that perk. Every time I open up an ammo box in a high-level area I can usually find anywhere from 30 to 50 rounds and after you do that about 5 or 10 times you have more than enough to start running some of the harder higher-level guns. Not to mention with how many other rounds you get that you don't need like the 9 m m and a 10 mm you can always take it over to an ammo workbench break it all down and just make the rounds you need. And in reality you only need about 30 rounds of anti material to make yourself effective because you'll be surprised at how rarely you take it out.
On the AMR vs Christine's rifle I have to respectfully disagree. I mean, obviously if it works for you that's all well and good, but personally I think the AMR is inferior myself.
The AMR is expensive to buy and uses expensive ammo, it's extremely heavy, it's slow to fire, and is still extremely loud even with suppressor. Not to mention not many enemies carry AMRs so...
On the other hand, Christine's rifle is free, ammo is relatively common/not particularly expensive, lightweight, and is as quiet as Christine is pre-Gala Event. Throw in the much lower AP cost and the superior crit multiplier and it's far more feasible for my usual gun builds anyways imo.
Please do a top 10 on revolvers
Don't you mean pistols in general
Yeah, a top 10 on revolvers (at least the ones you can acquire and use) would basically be ALL the revolvers- .357 magnum (Lucky, Police Pistol), .44 magnum and Mysterious Magnum, Hunting Revolver (GRA, Ranger Sequoia), 5.56 pistol and That Gun.
@@miltoast nah like specifically revolvers 'cause the cowboy perk only effects revolvers
freshmadgod just isn’t enough revolvers or unique ones to make a decent length video, can’t go wrong with the mysterious magnum tho.. that chord tho.
@@Wanderingwalker-ke6mg as much as I love the cord it just starts getting annoying
Another pro of the Medicine Stick is the iron sights do not suck. I found the cowboy repeater and brush gun so difficult to use because of the large circles surrounding the sights blocking too much of my field of view and making hitting targets difficult
2019 and Fallout New Vegas is still popular...
I'M NOT ALONE ANYMORE :D
2020 BITCHS
Just got the game
Its 200% better then i thought it would be
I'm playing it currently lol
2023
Still an amazing game by today’s standards.
One of my personal favorite rifles has got to be the GRA version of the Assault Carbine. Like many fully automatic weapons, it's base damage is rather low, but that's to offset it's EXTREMELY high fire rate. You can empty a full mag in about a second!
With all it's mods attached, and with perks to boot, I've mowed down many groups of Legion assassins with that bad boy, and even some bigger threats. It may not help against a Deathclaw, but it will get the job done on virtually EVERYTHING ELSE!!
Definitely one of my all-time favorite automatics in New Vegas. It's just a shame it got severely nerfed in 4...
Automatic weapons generally lag behind semi-auto on Very Hard due to needing AP rounds on pretty much every somewhat armored enemy. Luckily, a lot of those guns are chambered in 5.56, which means you get to use match rounds and having reduced spread on full auto is satisfying as hell
And the 5mm by default negates -10 DT.
When I got the survivalists Rifle I didn't know it was so powerful.
I found out immediately and used it until I finished the playthrough(it's one of my favorites now)
I'd say this experiment of yours Caedo paid off, this was a onteresting take on your previous formula. It was fun to watch, hope to see more videos like this!
It's always fun to see bodies soar through the air after being destroyed by a anti-material rifle
Whenever I find something that refuses to die quickly enough - the Medicine Stick cures it. With bullets
Anti-Mat. Rifle + explosive ammo > everything else.
Devgru 556 Throw on some Ncr Scout Armor and you are a babe magnet
Paciencia + Hollow-points = highest ballistic damage in the game (including critical damage)
Energy weapons like Pew Pew can get even higher due to the crazy ammo selection and sneak attack perks.
@@anamoebacorn Energy build with high luck, making sure to get crit perks when you can is fucking nuts. Pair it with an elijahs lr and....
The reason the survivalists rifle iornsight is bent is because in Randell Clarks journals he says he tried to put a scope on it but couldn't and that he broke the iorns
The Anti-Material Rifle is a favorite. Of course. I just hang back and become Death from afar.
1:54. You can get it in a lot footlocker in ranger Andy’s house at Novac
Missed you dude! I feel inspired to once again create a new character 😂
Just played through NV for the first time about a week ago, never had more fun with any Fallout game! OMG! How did I miss out on this for 10 years!
Same here and I love so much the game, i'm starting the DLC's
Fun fact, snipers in the military almost NEVER aim for the head but instead the chest, the head is too small of a target and moves around too much
Holorifle, Surivalist Rifle, AM Rifle are pretty much how we beat the game.
Got Bunnies I used the plasma defender and tri beam laser rifle and can’t remember anything giving me issues
Nah. Get melee 100 and get the war club with all the attachments with the knockdown perk. Unstoppable
@@tylerlook1752 lmao im actually doing a melee and unarmed run and the shit is TOO op
Still making New Vegas videos in 2019? Good.
2 0 2 0
Palencia is my favorite rifle because it is pretty high damage, the ammo is dirt cheap and every vendor has it, the durability is sky-high, you get bonus critical damage, and even though it lacks a scope, the iron sights are precise enough that you can snipe at ranges that you normally need a scope for. The lack of a scope helps when a deathclaw rushed you and a scope would hurt more than help.
The one downside is that a clip only has 3 bullets. But the reload is pretty fast.
Big fan of these style videos, would really help with future playthroughs.
The only flaw with NV is the absence of the big guns skill.
There's so many great heavy weapons in the game but they're all spread out amongst the three different weapon skills so its pretty frustrating especially if you're a bit of a fanatic when it comes the those heavy weapons like myself although I love the assault rifles in game so that's okay.
One of my favorite things to do is make a shotgun build using the big boomer, then using the glitch that allows you to put ammo into your hot bar, use .50 call rounds and hot bar it into the big boomer, it gets rid of the dumb short range of the big boomer and actually uses the spread of the anti material rifle instead.
Just spam riot shotgun it’s just so good in Zion because you will run out of ammo in there after continuous firing.
Some Survivalist's Rifle magic:
12.7mm JHP (hand load)
Grunt perk
The gun will do 100 damage a shot only at the cost of 2x target DT
Use at your own risk
This Machine and the Anti-Material rifle are always must-haves for my Fallout NV playthroughs. And if you know a few tricks to farm caps, and have the Lonesome Road DLC, you never really have to worry about ammo or gun condition as long as ED-E is with you. Those tricks have allowed me to more recently add the Medicine Stick to my list of guns I don't like being without. And if you're worried about conserving ammo, stock up on explosive .50 cal and get good at sniping groups of enemies. A well-placed explosive round can kill just about any unwary cluster of creatures, short of the higher level deathclaws and the giant roboscorpion.
My last playthrough I used the hunting rifle with scope the entire time except through Honest Hearts because of the weight limit.
My boy Caedo is back
Welcome back fam, I've missed your videos!
I never left!
Believe it or not Paciencia has the highest possible single shot damage in the game. Paciencia access to HP rounds allows it to beat out the anti-materiel rifle and YCS/186 for 1 shot damage output with a staggering 2544 damage for a sneak attack headshot to an unarmored opponent on normal difficulty with all relevant damage perks (Better Criticals, Just Lucky I'm Alive, Bloody Mess, the Lonesome Road perk, and Lord Death (Rank 3)).
4:30 it's not because of the bullet spread; that's an M-1 Garand, and the stripper clips need to load the ammunition vertically. There wouldn't be any room for mounting a scope.
This was Really good, Please do more of these sorts of Vids
The hunting rifle is one of my favorite guns in fallout new vegas and my go-to for mid to long range because of it's exceptional damage, it's easy to get and repair and it's good against armored targets
Its damage is hardly exceptional compared to things like the anti material rifle, brush gun or gauss rifle.
POV: your trying to find something better than the anti matterial rifle then you realize it’s the GOAT
YCS/186 with optimized microfusion cells out-damages the Anti-Material Rifle. As does a fully-modded Holorifle, but that's a little more reliant on the inherent damage over time.
Yes but this is not a weapon list with energy weapons
The survivalist rifle is my favorite, yeah ammo is hard to find and the bunny ears got bent but over all accurate and powerful and fast to load and unload. + grunt perk makes it op
Top 10 weapons that use one hand of any category
thank god u still make videos about fallout man i luv u
Just started my like 16th playthrough. Unarmed and long range the "Jon Wick" playthrough. Awesome to see new new content coming out for this game.
my favrote rifles in new vegas all american the medicine stick and this machine
My god, Im plagued with nostalgia, I can only cure it with reinstalling new vegas
9:33 I really like how you specifically mention "Reduce the noise" option
"Yeah so um, guys, I have this anti-material rifle that hits like a fucking dumptruck both in damage and sound, and practically it's bullets explode on impact"
"You brought it on a stealth mission?"
"Don't worry guys, I have a *s i l e n c e r* "
If running the anti material Rifle I advise getting the lonesome road dlc and then nuking both because the crates that you get there have lots of ap rounds (about 1000) and incendiary rounds(about 700ish from my game)
The Medicine Stick is by far my favorite non sniper weapon in all of new vegas. As far as the Anti-Mat rifle goes, I just really love going through the sloan quarry using the anti-mat loaded with explosive rounds, one shotting deathclaws.
I prefer Ratslayer. With zero spread and x5 crit chance you can (through appropriate stats and clothing) take down deathclaws early game (from far enough away). 100% crit rate is also easy to get.
Jury Rigging is a must perk for any build
Don't forget, it pays well to be on the Great Khans' good side.
They have an excellent armory for buying ammunition inside a basement beside a wasted house near the entrance of the Red Canyon.
I myself like using the fully upgraded varmint rifle.
i always use ed-e to repair my weapons
i just started another play through of old world blues
I feel like Ratslayer deserved a mention, but great list! It's not the strongest in terms of raw damage, but my god it is a powerhouse early on and pretty easy to obtain if you just want to run in Broc Flower cave with a stealthboy.
I started up playing this and streaming it. So far my favorite and reliable strong gun from this list is a tie with the Anti Material Rifle and the Trail Carbine with a scope. The AM Rifle i use more against heavy hitters like Deathclaws, Tunnelers and sometimes the Nightkin but my Trail Carbine is like my all purpose use gun. I loved the vid btw and hopw you have more some time. Keep it up and enjoy your day !
Next, Top 10 highest damage pistols.
I'm calling the Ranger Sequoia and some variant of an energy-based pistol. Never even played a Fallout game but those are my bets.
@@AnonEMus-cp2mn please play fnv
Every time i play through new Vegas my one goal is to collect the unique weapons
(Including dead money, cuz thats the only dlc i have)
One of my "OC Builds" is a female Courier aligned with Mr. House, with her backstory being that of a business-savy woman with an entrepreneural spirit and a penchant for treasure/relic collection. AKA Unique Weapon and Gear collecting.
@@thehoodybadger3402 nice, I now have the honest hearts dlc so collecting the unique stuff there is next on my list
#8.) The Gobi Campaign Sniper Rifle also has a critical damage of 80, making it one of the highest damage critical hit rifles in the game.
#4.) 6:22 "This is also the only unique sniper rifle that comes with a suppressor..." Not true. The Ratslayer has a suppressor, though it has significantly lower damage than the rifles on this list. Its benefit is being the easiest to obtain suppressed, scoped, and accurate weapon in the game.
I'd swap the Trail Carbine with the Survivalist's Rifle. While both have the same damage and crit damage, not only does the Survivalist's Rifle have the higher DPS (by a good margin), but its Hand Loader ammo is the powerful Jacketed Hollow Point which deals 65% bonus damage, while the Trail Carbine's Hand Loader ammo is Semi-Wadcutter, dealing only 20% bonus damage (although it has much better armor penetration). Due to the high damage these deal, it takes greater than 37 damage threshold before the SWC deals more damage than the JHP (at 100 guns skill), so JHP is generally stronger against nearly every enemy in the game.
I'd like a top ten list of the overall best rifles to play with after considering damage, DPS, accuracy, ease of use, availability, ammo availability, hand loader ammo, repairing, etc. Here's my tentative list:
10.) Varmint Rifle
9.) Hunting Rifle
8.) Trail Carbine
7.) Cowboy Repeater
6.) Ratslayer
5.) Anti-materiel Rifle
4.) Brush Gun
3.) Gobi Campaign Scout Rifle
2.) Paciencia
1.) Survivalist's Rifle
Loved this list Cadeo. Keep them up I say. Be it DPS list or Damage for another weapon class. Great Work man
