Does FNV have a Dart Gun like FO3?

Post » Mon Aug 20, 2012 12:16 am

Just curious, does FNV have a weapon comparable to Fallout 3's Dart Gun? I used to use it a lot when I needed to do stealth kills or slow down Deathclaws and Super Mutant Overlords.

Thanks, G :smile:

I don't think there is. I am sure there is a weapon mod that adds it (That is, if you are on PC).

I dont think even with a sneak attack you could kill a deathclaw or super mutant with darts in this game.

Why would you want a dart gun? You would deprive yourself of that great rush of euphoria that you get when you see a deathclaw glide gracefully through the air...at your face.

I think there was something like that in honest hearts but i aint sure, and you could use the OWB energy gun that is given to you at the beggining of the dlc with the mod that makes crit hits make the enemy paralise for a bit

Closest thing is probably the nail gun from Lonesome Road.

No there's not, but there is a mod that restores Fallout 3 weapons into New Vegas, and the Supplementary Uniques mod has a dart rifle that does the same thing ;)

Explosives work well to cripple deathclaw legs to slow them down.
Or you could get the And Stay Back perk for shotguns that gives you a very high chance to knock them over before they get to you.

The wiki is your friend.

But no, there isn't. The Compliance Regulator is somewhat similar though.

When I read the words, "nail gun", I'm thinking, this thing makes noise. :smile: Does it?

Well....I know explosives make noise, for sure.

Part of the allure of the Dart Gun was that is was SO quiet. It was basically 1/2 stealth and 1/2 paralysis. And I guess I didn't make it clear in my OP that this gun could also be used on people if you needed a quiet way to kill someone in a crowd. That's all I got to say. hehe :smile: Thanks for all this cool feedback though.

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/H&H_Tools_nail_gun. In practice it's a silenced SMG.
