This.
You're missing the point completely. You're arguing this is the highest DPS simply becausse the Mysterious Stranger does over 9000 damage per shot, and there's no way in hell anything else can out-damage that. TECHNICALLY it's the highest DPS.
The reality of the situation though is that you don't need over 9000 damage to kill an enemy. You need like, 150. So all you're doing is wasting a ton of time just to get a complete overkill of a partner to show up when you probably could've shot them yourself with a Brush Gun or Assault Carbine. And let's not forget that in reality, constantly going into and out of VATS takes ages itself.
TECHNICALLY it's the highest DPS, but that's solely because of how outrageous the Mysterious Stranger's damage is. Even though this has the highest DPS, I'm sure you'll find that this gets the job done a lot slower than just fighting normally. Stop calculating with the 18,000 potential damage the MS does and calculate out the DPS with the 150 or 250 -actual- damage that he does and I'm sure you'll find the DPS is horrible.
LOL.
Yeah I already said the whole highest dps thing was a joke, even though it is kinda true. Although I do not blame you in the slightest for not reading through to find it.
The point was that you could roll this build with another build, because it is not costly to do so.
I have a melee, turbo spamming, chem build and I gave him the extra perks and stuff to run this build as well, if he wants.
I was just stopping by, so I figured I would necro my thread again.
Hi.
EDIT: Oh, and like I said, with this build you can kill anyone you want, in front of anyone you want, loot the bodies, and no one cares.
