Fallout New Vegas was like a dream game to me. I can use VATS with grenades, can craft explosives nice and easy with mad bombers perk, lot of options with grenade launchers... It was fun setting the wasteland on fire
Great build man I enjoyed watching this,u dont have the melee turbo experience but not having to worry about fnv (especially LR's)deathclaws and the ability to neutralize anti-materiel gun people and such from a distance is such an insane quality of life.
Working on an explosives playthrough myself on yt/twitch. I think my biggest issue is carry weight because I’m playing on hardcore. Also probably won’t use grenade machine gun until 30+ after I get heavyweight or whatever the perk is for lowering STR req. my build plan is more about throwables and the Grenade launcher
All of these are played on hardcore as well, you can see the h2o warning on a few occasions. Anyway, I haven’t found carry weight to be a problem at all, you should basically only be carrying the grenade machine gun with the appropriate ammo and a few loose nades. The boost from hoarder also works really well. Check out the streams if you need more details.
Thanks so much for this. I've been looking for a proper explosive build for a while, so I really appreciate this. P.s jokes are always appreciated, so once again thank you
Ok you need to know this: the grenade launchers in this game are really good at vats. Use any grenade launcher in vats and shoot the feet of your target. The grenades will always land on target. This makes you have more range than sniper rifles. Also thump thump is superior to both lonesome road grenade rifles.
Mercy is my favorite weapon in the game, it just lays everything to waste. For that extra damage, use eye for eye perk, you might find it annoying, but the trade off is quite worth it imo.
This build is one of the few if not the only one where I wouldn't bother taking eye for eye simply because you can plow through everything well before hitting level 20. That being said, more damage is never a bad thing, I just stop playing after clearing the promontory.
Discoveredyour channel recently while looking for new builds to try in New Vegas and I love your style and the way you present your build info. I know it's super late, but if you don't mind me asking,why the high agility? I didn't see any perks you might need it for and I dunno if AP regeneration would help you latrgame since you don't seem to be using VATS that much. Thanks for the great vid regardless!
Gotcha, thanks! Been giving it a try and really enjoying myself with it, I haven't used explosives in new vegas a lot and this channel has really opened my eyes to a lot of guns I kinda just left in storage or sold for caps that I wanna give a proper try now
Cheers, there are a few ways. I usually get all of my money in the first quarter or so of Lonesome Road because I find that to be less tedious than gambling. Check out the streams for more details.
