Fat Man (Fallout 76)

The Fat Man is a weapon in Fallout 76.

Characteristics
The Fat Man fires a single deadly mini-nuke shell, perfect for tough enemies like super mutant behemoths, deathclaws or sentry bots, or any enemy that is a significantly higher level. Still, one must be extremely wary of the curve trajectory of the mini nuke, or else one can be trapped within in the explosion. As it is a heavy weapon, the Fat Man benefits from the Heavy Gunner perk, but this makes a weapon that is already overkill superfluously deadly.

As one would expect, the firepower does not come without a penalty; the Fat Man weights 30 pounds by itself, and is even less practical in survival mode when its ammunition weighs more than a third of that. Modifying it to eject several mini nukes at once makes it 18% heavier, but widens the spread and allows one to carpet bomb an entire area.
