Hey all,

I've ratcheted up the difficulty to very hard, I'm at level 22. I've perked single and auto shot rifles, and I noticed (when getting almost torn in half by a Mirelurk queen) that my fat man and my missile launcher do barely any damage. Almost all of my guns do far more damage much quicker.

So I want to perk up to make the Fatman and the Missile Launcher more effective. So... do I perk "explosives" or "heavy weapons"? Thanks!

Explosive weapons are as follows: Missile launcher, broadsider, and Fatman (both heavy and explosive) grenades, mines, and weapons with legendary explosive damage


Heavy weapons are: Fatman, broadsider, and missile launcher (both heavy and explosive) minigun, gattling laser, the junk jet, the flamer, and the cyroloctor might count if you do not make it into a pistol

Cryolator is a heavy weapon too, right?

the fat man and missle launchers will both benefit from explosive perks and heavy weapon perks..

oh, OK that makes sense, maby that is the same for the braudsider too.

Yes, the Broadsider also is included on the list!

By the way... you guys like this weapon for serious gaming?

ok so do you guys sell or use mines and frags because i sell them and never use them and wanna know if im makeing a good decision on selling them

that is your choice man, just know with explosives level 2 you can see where grenades will land. And yes Gabriel I love the broadsider, the cannonballs are cheep, easy to find, and it is very fun to use. (At least for me, they are like in every 2 ammo crates)

I hoard them myself...I don't use mines often, but I use plasma grenades a bit..

I usually try to keep about 2 bottlecap mines on me, and around 5-10 plasma grenades...(sometimes a couple nuka grenades when I find them)..
