Talk:Magical companion ammo

Can this ammo be used with any of the guns the player can normally get? ProfessorApoc 21:09, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

I doubt it, even if you could obtain through glitching, would most likely mean that it could vanish anytime. If it was even equipable in the first place. 124.148.247.108 16:03, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

Does the game actually call it 'Magical Companion Ammo'? Just my opinion, but that is just a horrid name for it. --Trizzip 14:49, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Non-equipable
The Magical Companion Ammo can't be equipped by the player - I can only presume only the companions guns run on it. Tested on xbox 360
 * That's correct. If you want to know more specifics, keep reading. -- 15:15, November 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * In Fallout 3, guns were assigned a specific ammo. While that can still be done in Fallout: New Vegas (as was done for the missing laser pistol), it's more common to have a "form list" of ammo be assigned to the ammo for the weapon, which contains a list of different ammo types usable by the gun. For follower weapons, they probably decided it would be easiest to just make one form of ammo for companion weapons and assign it to all of 'em. This also means that Magical Companion Ammo doesn't appear in any of the form lists for regular weapon ammo - if it did, then companions could use weapons that use that form list for their ammo, without having any ammo for it. -- 15:15, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

lol
How do they fire their weapon without bullets? With magical companion ammo!

is it just me that find this hilarious? 137.186.66.8
 * No. I find it amusing too. ON a side note, when I pickpocketed Cass to give her a present for not wanting to sell her caravan, her Magical Companion Ammo showed up in the list after placing the present in her inventory. -- 10:45, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Problems
Ya I have Boone and when i was doing the raid on Nelson with him he switched to his machete i got him to switch back but in the end i had to give him my .308 ammo

Guns to?
Okay so I am almost 100% that you CAN equip the ammo but the 'magical companion ammo' is assigned to all of your companions weapons. So I was just curious if there is some way ,on 360 and without mods, to get their guns? I only know of the casino searching glitch where their weapons have a small chance of appearing in your inventory but other than that idk. So Please,any advice or constructive criticism would be helpful 38.109.25.246 19:46, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
