What is your recommended armor/melee/guns for Veronica?

T51-b Power Armor & Helmet, along with Pushy

You could have just made those 3 topics into one but whatever.

Anyways pushy's a good one for veronica. As for guns the unique gauss rifle is a good one and armor I prefer her wearing her normal clothing. It's sixier :hubbahubba:

Ballistic Fist is better imo for veronica. Give her the Remnants set when you get it, but until then, use the T-51b set. As for ranged weapons, you can use the Q-35 or Plasma Caster. It might be better to use the Ballistic Fist if you're going the Plasma caster option though, as the caster does not have very good range.

Pushy has a higher DPS than ballistic fist, and ballistic fist is over her strength requirement so shes worse with it.

What is your recommended armor/melee/guns for Veronica?

In my game, Veronica's wearing http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=37201 from the Nexus.

For armament, she has Pushy and uses either the Q-35 Matter Modulator or the Laser RCW, depending on what enemies we're facing.

I think default for all companions is all you need but with Veronica, I like her in metal armor....shows her curves really well and eventually I arm her with the pushy.
I also tend to give her dynamite but only in certain situations, don't like it when she's blowin up fire ants or rad scorps...gotta take the dynamite away from her and give her a little spanking for being such a naughty girl!!! :thumbsup:

I give her pew pew which she fires like the RCW, add ed-e and fights look like something out of Starwars.

» Fri Feb 05, 2010 10:53 am

T51 armor, 1st Recon beret, Pushy, and Pew Pew for the rare cases when I need her to shoot.

Power Armor or Chinese Stealth armor.
Pushy or Paladin Toaster
RCW or Tri Beam

I find the Ballistic Fist is a pretty good choice. Providing its in good condition, she makes short work of most enemies with it. As for ranged, I usually give her a plasma rifle, specifically the Q-35. It only uses one ammo per shot so its not too hard keeping her stocked up with MF cells that way.

For clothing, its got to be power armour all the way. Its easily found and, being a melee/unarmed character, she needs to be able to take some damage against the tougher enemies. Also, shes from the Brotherhood or Steel, its what she should wear.

Assassin suit

Recon helmet/hood

Pushy/Ballistic Fist/ Paladin Toaster - I switch these out depending on enemy.

The unique laser rifle.

Also I can't seem to get the hood on Veronia, I was able to do it last playthrough somehow by having two in her inventory. I hope the next game really fixes what can go on your follower, picking the guns for them for once whether its weak or provide no DT.

Well, obviously if she can wear power armor, it's a good thing. Since you cant wear it, dress her up in it.

Which gun she uses has always seemed irrelevant to me, since she will fight up close under nearly any circumstances. I usually only play with Veronica if I'm playing a Guns-using character (there are only a few energy weapons that I really like), so giving her the Q-35 is not that great a sacrifice, but most important is what up close and personal weapon you arm her with. I'll generally go with the ballistic fist; the BoS usually has one in its armory.

I personally find gamers who have crushes, likes toward video game virtual character's "curves and boobs" quite pathetic I especially despise people talking to these virtual characters by calling them "naughty girl." Seriosly, this thread aint about that, so i should,t be seeing that.

You should see what people think about Tali on the ME forums.

That's the one thing I do not ever give her, or any other follower besides ED-E or Rex.

Explosives and companions in this game do not mix.

At the moment she is wearing T-51B, along with a Ballistic Fist along the YCS Gauss Rifle
I wish I could manually take of those ugly robes and hood.

» Fri Feb 05, 2010 5:06 pm

She is hilarious with Thump Thump, watch out, and very good with Incinerators both normal and heavy.

My Veronica has pushy the all american a mod plasma rifle a plasma defender. and a drees that she will not wear. She talks about a dress alot. So bring her a ravishing pre-war dress of vera keyes from dead money and she won t where it.

So brotherhood t51b is her dress. She s a harder Veronica in that.
She thought I was going to kill the brotherhood once and threatened me. I wonder how many shots I could take from her with pushy???

Facepalm. My second time to look at my avatar closely. Lol. I have Veronica wear T-45 armour and helmet. She carries laser pistol becuase Veronica uses ammo up to quickly. I can give her 2 plasma grenades and 100 MF cells and 5 seconds later, she threw all grenades at a dog and is saying,"spare some ammo."

One word: Oh, Baby!

» Sat Feb 06, 2010 3:07 am

Veronica's strength is a level 7 and the Ballistic Fist requires a level 9. I give her Pushy, Palidan Toaster, and Recon Armor.

» Fri Feb 05, 2010 7:20 pm

combat armor [light] , later she will earn her T51-b
no helmet
modded, so she uses a .357 instead of her 10mm, and no melee
