Well, I tried fighting him and my Char with Power Armor and 10 luck had a run for his money atleast. I always detonated the nuke after that play through.
He's actually scripted to do that. Once his health drops below a certain point, he runs away and heals himself with healing powder and you get attack by some of his men.
Yeah, I think Lieutenant should have been featured here as well, not just because he was teased in this video's thumbnail, but because he can be the final boss encounter in Fallout 1 if you killed Master first.
Fallout 1: Highly intelligent abomination formed by the FEV virus Fallout 2: Super mutant in tailor built power armor capable of ripping deathclaws with his bare hands Fallout NV: Legendary Legion warrior that slaughtered his own tribe by himself Fallout 3: Dude in a trench coat with a laser pistol
@@cyansuy3062 Who happens to simultaneously be your son which at no point in the entire game do you feel any connection or empathy towards.... Idk Fallout 3, 4, and 76 are all disappointments. Then again, all of them are by Bethesda, idk what to expect.
Autumn isn't really a "Final Boss", he dies as easily as any Enclave soldier. The real final confrontation, verbally, is the one you have with President Eden. Autumn's more of a last obstacle thing.
Master is more difficult in combat. For Frank you have at least 4 ways to help defeat him 1. Kill the President and use his keycard to turn the turrets against him, literally makes the fight a cake walk. The draw back is that killing the President can be difficult, though you can do the super stimpack glitch to overload his heart 2. Convince the Enclave squadron to help you. While not making the fight easy, it should be relatively easy to do since speech is a common skill usually always high by end game. 3. Bring followers onto the rig and tell them to camp by the entrance area, once the fighting starts they can help 4. Gauss rifle abuse, snipe away But if you go into the right without minding your surroundings or knowing what’s coming, I can agree
My favorite way to defeat the Master is by showing him how the FEV virus makes it so super mutants can’t reproduce, which makes his plan useless. And instead of denying it and fighting you anyway, he accepts it and regrets what he did, opting to kill himself for what he’s done, and telling you to leave while you have hope.
You can tell him you set off the bomb and as one last request Master : yes? Vault Dweller: Can I join now? Which is a badass dialogue since you sealed his death and plans. There are lot of such badass funny dialogues in 1. Other fallouts 2,3,4 are funny as well, but I like how Tim Cain wanted the humour to not take you out of game.
What's more is that you can wear robes to just walk out of the entire place without needing to fight anybody as the timer ticks down. By entering through talking to the guy at the top of the cathedral you essentially kill him without entering combat not even once.
@@keiser1188 not at alllll, 2 and NV are much lighter hearted and less depressing than 1. not saying 1 has a bad aesthetic its just before fallout got its signature darkly tongue and cheek aesthetic with zaney characters and settings, and follows more of a completely wrecked world that can barely stand istelf. in 2 and NV the wasteland is more established and people seem to tolerate it and grow around it more.
Well they were using the Medicine Stick, and by how much his HP went down it was probably on Normal dificulty or lower. New Vegas is really easy by the endgame, so much so that I downloaded a mod that makes the final battle harder by spawning harder enemies and in larger numbers.
@@danilopetrovic5697 Fair enough, but that is one of my biggest criticisms of NV. Even on the hardest settings possible, it's pretty hard to lose a fight past level 15. The balance is wack.
@@TheOneTrueWarrior Not to mention the Legate is touted as this big maniacal force to be reckoned with (a literal Monster of the East) and you can just talk him down from a fight. Like, okay.
Bob has no idea what those are but honestly they sound like they’re from 76 and if so they can burn in hell along with the rest of 76 and the creation club.
@@The_mrbob In case you're asking where the characters I'm talking about comes from, Ashur is from the Pitt DLC in Fallout 3, while Ulysses and the Giant Roboscorpion hails from the Lonesome Road and Old World Blues DLCs of Fallout: New Vegas, respectively. Also, do you always speak in third person?
@@jimmyjohn6504 Bob understands your pain, you paid 60 dollars for 76 when it first came out only to be met with a incomplete cashgrab, in attempt to improve the game you bought many of the dlcs yet still the game was barely even mediocre. Finally you convinced yourself all the money was worth it and that the game was "decent".
The Master: blob of twisted mass that can telepathically control an army of mutants Frank Horrigan: a super mutant behemoth in power armor that can rip open a deathclaw like it's nothing Legate Lanius: a hardened warrior dedicated to the cause of the legion Colonel autumn: some dude from Dixie
That'd be cause Lanius is the definitive strongest enemy in NV. He hits like a truck and if you aren't prepared with good/great weapons he'll just shrug off bullets. I think fudgemuppet did a video on it. That was medicine stick in the video, the legendary variation of the lever action. Does fairly well.
Kind of the point, really. The Legion were ruthless and extremely powerful, and the NCR were holding on by a fraying thread. Its fitting that the only thing standing in between you and the NCR's Mohave collapse is a few particularly strong rangers.
@@whoareyoutoaccuseme6588 wrong agaiin. The legendary deathclaw is weaker than the legendary bloatfly, rawr and the giant roboscorpion. BTW im taking "vanilla" to mean unmodded.
Legendary Bloatfly is the toughest boss enemey. Not because its particularly tough, its just tough dealing with the embarassment of dying to a Bloatfly is really difficult
I honestly suggest taking a look at 76 Seriously, in order to even get to the nuke, you need to fight through a gauntlet of infinitely respawning enemies while making as much progress as possible. Then, you get to launch a nuke, which is objectively cool, and you travel to the sight of the battle, which turns into a server wide fight, players fighting against an army of Scorched, as well as essentially a dragon
@@Moxilock There's litterally no build up to the boss of 76. The Master is built up really well in regards to believing Super Mutants being the perfect being in the Wastes but not realising that they are sterile and can't reproduce. Lanius is built up to be this monster of a man who's not only cruel and monsterous is also very bright and adept at war and diplomacy. Both of them were bulit up over the course of the entire game as more information filtered to the PC as the game progresses up until you have the meeting with them. 76 is just "oh here's a boss to kill which is extremely tedious to fight and the reward is dog shit and is just another thing to kill" Edit: Typos
The boss of Nuka World World of Refreshment (Nukalurk Queen) had more build ip assumimg you cleared and fully explored the bottling plant interior first.
@@Moxilock Where's the story? Where's the investment? If I want endlessly spawning, meaningless enemies I can ask Preston Garvey if there's any work to be done.
@@MrMadre Not equally. While the others crawled out of a vault or a tribal village, the fucking mailman is the one who crawled out of a grave. That mf is just built differently.
I think there are people playing the originals more now than ever. Those unfamiliar with 1/2 are being introduced to them through Game Pass & there's a crapton of mods being released that are bringing the veterans back.
@@WEndro333 In my case I already knew about fallout 3 and 4 but I didn't play them first, one time my father say that he install a free game he found on steam, it was fallout 1. My first attempt to play it (even with my brother sometimes) was just to try it, but one time I decided to understand the game, I finished it and had a good time. After that I play fallout 2 and finished it, and now I have no idea if I should continue with New Vegas or fallout 3.
@@anthonypiacentini3367 Maybe the first time you fought them if you were a low level character. Before he engages into combat I always throw a few mines down in the corner he runs off to. Once his legs are crippled you can make very short work of him.
this man in Enclave Power Armor holding a rocket launcher "6:52" is way more menacing, (and i salute that man till his dying breath over his bravery) than an old man in a trench coat holding a pea shooter of a laser. Guy deserve needs a raise.
Is it just me, or the bosses in Bethesda games feel bland and not so interesting? As oppose of, say, Frank Horrigan or The Master, hell, even Legate Lanius feel a bit more intimidating.
I remember finishing Fallout 3 a year ago. I don't even know why the last guy (Colonel something) even wanted to fight me. And he haven't even bothered to gear up before that battle. The only thing I remember was violin Lady that I come across during my first playthrough (my game was crushing like no tomorrow on the next attempts)
I mean let’s be honest the Master is just your typical borg neo Nazi “oh I have plans on creating the master race and all races should be super mutants.... except they are sterile and would cannibalize each other” Frank Horrigan was just a slightly more intelligent super mutant that somehow cosplays as a Enclave Soldier. Don’t get me wrong the design of both of them are cool but I don’t understand the logic that the The Master or Frank Horrigan are some amazing villains other than maybe design.
@@samwiseb2799 I don't think you understood the master, at least from the way you described him, he isn't really totally like a Nazi; yes he wanted to erradicate all the other races and make them take part of the master race, but he was doing it because he thought he could eliminate any sort of differences that would cause racism, sexism, xenophobia, etc and mind control everybody into making an etopia, his motives are somewhat reasonable, that's why I consider him to be a compelling villain
@Lucien Elewen the fact that Danse is a synth became known to half of the Brotherhood. I highly doubt that senior officers, let alone knights and initiates, would have allowed a synth to lead the Brotherhood.
@@meyers0781 no the cut content was that you were supposed to challenge Elder Maxon for the position of Elder you were supposed to have some big battle you and him and then if you Won you would become Elder it's sad that was cut
@@shiteyanyo1111 No they shouldn't. The player becoming the elder would be completely fucking stupid, considering the BOS in fallout 4 is a military expedition and the rest of the chapter is still in the capital wasteland. Why would the chapter in the capital wasteland allow some random guy they've never met to be the elder? This would be like if joe biden died and some random afghan interpreter became the president.
i remember my first playthrough i hated the legate lanius boss. i didn't realize it was the final boss and i was thinking how this random guy in gold armor was so difficult to fight
@@michaelmittag001 my dumbass thought you got the veteran ranger armor from the Hoover dam mission so I thought that after it, there was more missions for you to do with your new armor
Fallout 1, 2, New Vegas : Literally ideological debates, war of words and arguments, clashing one's ideas and perspectives. Fallout 3 : You again! It is your destiny. Fallout 4 : It's too complicated. You wouldn't understand.
@@spiffygonzales5160 Fallout 3 in my opinion, is just based on racism killing like super mutant/ghoul in order to make the world a better place literally no reason, there's no really an explanation (still it's better than Fallout 4 ofc, in terms characters and dialogues). Enclave became the main antagonist and somehow BoS became sort of the "good guy" Meanwhile in New Vegas, people to this day still argue which one is the best ending for Mojave. For example, Caesar Legion, despite their cruelty and savage, actually made Mojave a safe place. No raiders dare to attack their merchant or caravan. No corruption and no "injustice", because their strong leader Caesar. Unlike NCR after the death of Tandi. Basically, Caesar would explain this whole broken system of NCR to the Courier. Not to mention others ending, like House and Independent.
@@hxppythxughts7149 They don't want to kill all that are considered impure (people in the wasteland, Super Mutants, Ghouls) for no reason, they want to kill them because well, they feel like they're monsters and have a chance of infecting everyone from the Enclave so they don't want anything to have to do with them, the Master is the villain that has more to do with racism, but nonetheless, I haven't played fallout 3 but I've heard it's just a mashing of the plot of fallout 1 and 2 together, that Brotherhood of Steel though doesn't sound good
@@robloxazo Fallout 3 still looks racist from the way you told me. Killing them because impure? Hah! Non sense. Killing them because has a chance to infect others humans? Hardly. That's just an excuse to justify their attempt to kill ghoul/super mutant. While Master in Fallout 1 was more reasonable. He (or maybe it) perceived super mutant as superior race, and could survive the waste land after the great war since the environment post-apocalyptic became so wild that he thought humans race was too weak to live in it. That's why, he wanted to change all humans with his FEV. Basically, he tried to save the living creatures on earth. Hence, thanks to his action, in Fallout 2, you can see why many super mutants were in hiding after the Incident.
@@hxppythxughts7149 With enclave its like this: destroy mutations and actually have a chance to rebuild without the threat of monsters, disease, or raiders vs the loss of life required to do it. The debate is logic vs morality and also wether ends justify the means. As for legion, let's be honest. If we're NOT ignoring their own crimes is the Mojave really a better place? Life in slavery with a chance of torture and crucifixion with safe roads vs unsafe roads but living a decent life free in a town which I probably won't leave anyways. This is a very obvious choice. And I understand caesar wants to advance his people forward, but when it brings literally everyone else back and creates a millitary caste dictatorship to do so... it's only good for themselves. Women will have far worse life regardless of them being slaves or not. And political dissenters will be killed or beaten. The Roman Empire was very complicated and relied on far more than just its military strength. And it most definitely would have been opposed to Caesars idea of thesis and antithesis. There's no argument for him. He's a generic post apocalyptic bad guy. Its good writing, but still. He's the obvious bad guy.
best parts of the mastermind voiced by Jim Cummings. He yells at you with different voices that you are very familiar of. Specially the character, Monterey Jack
1: a Lovecraften computer 2: a mutated solder on cybernetics and steroids 3: a trench coat wearing general NV: The moutain if he were in fallout 4 an army of mannequins
The Master: Blows up a church Horrigan: Nuclear sized oil rig explosion Babby's First Colonel: *Y O U A G A I N* Lanius: Fervent belief in his cause and a tense fight for the unprepared Courier I think we see the odd one out here.
the boss fights in fallout 1 and 2 are so much more epic, I think mainly because that turn based combat lends itself better to boss battles like that. In the modern fallout games you can basically just one shot the bosses
HHaha I killed when I bought all my companion and Fawkes to citadel,and..in there so many soldier brotherhood kill him hahha until I shoot Fawkes in the middle from top and my companion its fun Hahaha all kill Fawkes it takes hour time to kill fawkes
The Master: An incredibly powerful intellect who can ultimately be talked down, though it requires a fair amount of effort to do correctly. Frank Horrigan: The time for talking is over. Massive Hulking beast who must be killed by whatever means necessary. Legate Lanius: A skilled warrior with a an equally sharp mind. Can be reasoned with if your tongue is sharp enough. Augustus Autumn: guy with a laser pistol. Can pass a pecentage based skill check to get him to give up and leave. The Father: just a sick guy in bed. The "final boss" of any of the good factions of 4 is just a random synth. Elder Maxon: Laser gun go brrrrrrrrr Scorched Beast Queen: okay that thing literally just stood there the entire time doing nothing.
@@dimbrightman Damn, since someone insulted my taste in video games, I should hop on the bandwagon and just hate Fallout 4 for existing, in addition to joining the New Vegas bandwagon as well! Or, you know, I could just say what I think and have bigger balls than those groups.
I remember playing fallout 1 when I was younger and when I met the master I couldn’t sleep for a week because I was afraid he was gonna climb up my window and force me to join him or he would kill me and my family
I feel like the master almost sets the tone for fallout by himself. Like no other villain feels even half as dark or twisted. Frank is terrifying sure but there's just something about the master that's incredibly unnerving
I'm not gonna lie, seeing all those high level players work together to take down the ScorchQueen is an aspect about gaming I love. All these Fallout 76 players, who progressed through the game at their own pace. Their own loadouts. Their own CAMP's. Their own weapons. And this? This is our fight, we're in this together.

Bosses in fallout 1-3: fight to very end Legate lanius: half helaht and runs away and decides to finally return to fight
As hard as its probably gonna be I have to play the original 2 fallouts now. Something about htat turned based action with the final boss seems so stressful yet fun. I cna tell he had a lot to prepare. Doesn't even matter if i know the whole story i gotta try this myself
Fallout 1: the horrifying master Fallout 2: frank horrigan Fallout NV: legate lanius the monster of the east or oliver the guy who has like 8 ncr heavy trooper guarding him Fallout 3; a man who died in one shot by a laser pistol
There are some new ones in fallout 76. Like mutant Dr Blackburn from the steel reign update, the wendingo collosus, and the last one isn’t really a final boss but in the test your metal update, there is a 3 star legendary sentry bot that you fight in a certain mission.
Fallout 1/2: Genetic mutation hell bent on unifying everyone with FEV, and taking over and a mutie turned solider that you can't convince to back down, because loyalty runs thinker than blood. Every other fallout after: Some old guy, Some old guy with a big sword, generic synths, some guy in armor, and a dragon(?) I miss interplay fallouts.
cassidy dropping ´´goddamn arthrithis´´ while frank hoorigan is crawling torn in half got me chuckles :D also a great example that better graphics dont mean better games :D
As much as I appreciate Fallout 4, the feeling and atmosphear of the two first Fallout make them so much more vivid in my mind than any other game. Maybe because of nostalgia, I dont know. But The Master, with the way you uncover his journey and fate through the game, added to the writing and the voice, remains one of the most unforgetable experience of my player's life and I dont think nostalgia has anything to do with it.
I would never forget how i accidentally invaded the master’s base not knowing where I was and what I was doing. Was able to kill him, shocked the credit suddenly rolled XD
I just love the effort put into F1 and F2 characters. It's been unmatched ever since. Hell, that one encalve soldier you can contact over the radio in Poseidon power plant has more grit and character than the entirety of Fallout 4 or Fallout 3. Bethesda sanitized this game to death.
I think it’s really cool that the sound effects are the same throughout the entire series. I started playing fallout with the third installment, followed by new Vegas and then four. The graphics are great for the time period in the first two.
