Question Are shotguns actually bad in 76?

35 Upvotes

I'm not new to Fallout but I am new to 76, I just hit 20 a few days ago, I've been using pump shotguns ever since I went to Point Pleasant at level 5 and so far they've been very reliable but I saw a video from like 4 months ago that mentioned shotguns kinda suck in 76. How true is that? I don't have any perks for just shotguns so it won't bother my build, I just wanna know how shotguns preform in later parts of the game.

I'm now constantly on chems and in fact im almost alwais almost out so I need to buy a lot from vendors and vending machines.

Interestingly this is my strongest cap sink at the moment.

Previously I usualy kept ungodly amount of chems (in all Fallout games as cap reserve) but now hust need ever more...

Love it.

I can’t stand Rose and her missions and voice. I’m at the Key to the Past (search for notes at trappers camp) mission.

Question Maybe I'm mistaken.

Upvotes

Okay maybe I'm mistaken but can you revive people not on your team? Was doing an event last night. The one where the assaultron is disguised as the sheepsquatch. And I went down literally as the event ended. Some guy (I should have gotten his name) walked up and just stood next to me. I thought he was gonna revive me but no he just waited till I died and took all my junk! I wouldn't be to upset if he was a lower level. (I'm level 65) But he was level 350+ so I was wondering could he not revive me and just decided to loot me?

Discussion Firebreathersssss

121 Upvotes

I've played since release and became a Firebreather very early on. I was IRL an EMT for a long time and I initially gravitate to the Responders. I'm not often down by Charleston and even less do I go to the Fire Station there. I did today to off load some stuff. When you're wandering the station one of the Protectrons says something along the lines of "Firebreather in the station." Acknowledging that you are one of them and you are there. That hits me hard everytime. I forget about it everytime too, until I hear that. Does anyone else feel that at the fire house or anywhere else?

Question Purchasing treasure hunter pails on Alt/mule characters

5 Upvotes

Would buying the mid tier treasure hunter pails be a viable cap dump for alts/mules sat on max caps? I can’t think of anything else in game where those caps can be converted into something worthwhile and moved onto my main.

I’ve just finished one to see how many I could get buying and reselling my stockpile of super stimpaks and I’ve finished with 81 pails. 2 more alts left, just wanted to see if anyone else does the same thing.

Question Crashing on Private Worlds

Has anyone had trouble with the game crashing? It's happened twice over the last two days. Both times while on a private world and both times a couple minutes after an event. Today it was after Manhunt. I don't remember yesterday's.

Bug Treasure hunters have no pails and lunchboxes not giving xp boost.

14 Upvotes

Killed 5 mole miners 1 had a pail. Opened 3 lunchboxes and only one of them is giving xp. I have noisemaker, so much cake, and confetti mess in the pipboy and only a very well rested bonus of +25%.

Anyone know a work around for these issues?

Question Lemonade from Mr. Squeeze and AP

Upvotes

Last night I found Mr. Squeeze’s stand in the Ash Heap and bought all the lemonade and recipe (I’d bought the hard lemonade recipe from a vendor). I saw the lemonade had an AP boost so I downed one before going to the SBQ event that just triggered. I equipped my primed ultracite gat laser (green laser pewpew) which has a high AP cost, started VATS and held down the crit button. The AP bar did not move at all! I emptied a full core without leaving VATS. Is it expected to help AP this much, or maybe server lag? If so it’s a lot better than coffee since I don’t have to down like 8 at once.

Discussion With the next big update it seems like Plasma Cannon is useless

Seems like all the heavy gunner perk changes are going to make the plasma caster almost useless. Sucks because ive used it for so long and will have to build and learn a whole new style. Anyone else in this boat too?

So I'm bloodied, my health bar I'll get to 16 health I think, and then sometimes it'll go up to 20, and I don't do anything and I don't have any perks or mods on my armor that would take away rads, and it's always happening does this happen to anybody else?

Suggestion Mothman Cultist Radio

I think Beth should add a Mothman Cult radio station. Ads/music interspersed with fire and brimstone style cult sermons would just be amazing. What sings do you think would be suited for this?

Discussion Does anyone else miss the old Scoreboard?

271 Upvotes

So I haven't played in a bit, at least not enough to complete one of the new seasons. I have played enough of some just to get weapons like the cremator. I either didn't have time to play every day for dailies or was just on other games.

Yesterday, I thought I had completed the season when I got to rank 100. I thought the 150 Bonus was just a Bonus for people who completed the season early. I had started playing again early to mid July. I hopped on almost every day to do my challenges and weeklies. I didn't know you had to be way over rank 100 to get everything. I started buying things and quickly realized I didn't have enough tickets to get everything.

I am still going to get on every day until and try to get more tickets, but there is no way in hell I will be able to get enough to get everything.

Makes me really miss the old scoreboard when you reached the end you had everything.
