Ed-e uses alian wep? : Fallout: New Vegas

Seems like Ed-e shoots the Alian blaster. It's blue and does termandous damage

Its the new animation for his upgraded weapon, its not the alien blaster to be sure.

I believe it might be a variant of a Tesla Cannon scaled down for Ed-e, although I could be mistaken with this.

Blue lasers are more powerful than red lasers. Blue lasers have a higher amplitudes which result in more damage. It's the same reason the AER14 Prototype is more powerful than the standard laser rifle.

I haven't done the quest. And he still shoots red lasers. But every now and then this blue shot comes out and does huge dmg

ED-E in my current game has been shooting those blue lasers as well. ED-E was laying waste to some of those Deathclaws on the road to Lake Mead.

I haven't had it happen prior to downloading the new patch.

Is that the difference? I had ED-E's laser upgraded by the Followers of the Apocolypse and this game it is different from past games. He now makes a buzzing sound like it is buzzing from extra power and there are different effects. I took the Wild Wastland perk at the beginning of this game and I was wondering if that was the difference. I haven't downloaded any patches but I assumed that Steam is doing that automatically.

Huh.

My ED-E has had the weapons upgrade for ever, and if she ever shoots anything, it sure aint blue.

Patch fix it for you?

Yeah, that happened to me too.. prior to the patch ED was pretty much useless, post patch it was the first thing I noticed - blue laser. Quite cool too.
Strange how some (or most?) people had this since the game released and others (like us) didn't get it until the patch was released. Very fickle.

Kay, I gotta ask: She?

Yup ED now owns. The wasteland trait has nothing to do with EDs new buzzing sound or the blue balls that he shoots<--- lol blue balls

He's clearly dating the robot.

Yes.
My ED-E has had the weapons upgrade forever, also, but after the patch [i]he[/] is firing off awesome blue bolts.
Not only that, but the patch fixed my ED-E's "don't follow, don't fight" issue.

I suddenly have to wonder, though ... why would it be the FoA that upgrades weapons and the BoS armour?
I would think it the other way around. LOL!

A case of the metal fever no doubt, he must be stopped before it ends like http://mcooki.es/48647.

A lot of people refer to vehicles as "she".

Ed-e, we can all agree on, is pretty much a floating truck used to haul things around.

Well, technically ED-E's an it.

Next patch, if you upgrade his armor through the BoS, his HP will never or barely drops because of his ridiculously high DT. Cheers! :lol:

PS: Sorry, I refer "it" as a "he" because he reminds of how my late-miniature schnauzer, 'Rufus', sounded when he was angry or attacking things. Rex reminds me of my other dog, 'Drex'.

Kay, I gotta ask: She?

There's a mod for that

And yes, it shoots alien blaster -like for me too, but i got the armor upgrade for it (from BoS).
