Spontaneous combustion

Post » Tue Aug 02, 2011 8:56 pm

I am not sure if this is a bug or not but there is something rather strange about the Sonic Emitter pistol with the Tarantula frequency.

I figued by reading it that it set's people on fire on crit... Well i think it should say randomly spontaneously combust's the target in gory flames and lights everything around them on fire. Seriously this weapon randomly drops them to dead in fiery glory... I mean it is REALLY freakin cool, but i killed the legendary bloatfly and giant roboscorpion with this thing from near max life to dead. Is this intended? is this just me? But all i have to say is that i love that gun. >.>

It is supposed to do that, I'm sure. Its crit is a big explosion. Its base damage also makes it pretty powerful.

I've been trying this in VATS; taking a headshot with it took off about half their health in Hard, then the critical took off the actual critical damage (I think it's 40?) leaving them with around 88 health, before exploding into gory holy-fire about a second after!
