Forum:Weapons Glitch

I was playing Fallout 3, and suddenly, something strange happened. All of my weapons starting doing insane amounts of damage. Fully repaired, with 100 small guns, my assault rifle does 86 damage. Blackhawk does 62. The Chinese Assault rifle does 96. the Dart Gun does 16. The double barreled shotgun does 91. My gatling laser does 263. my Gauss rifle does 105. My infiltrator does 78. Sidney's 10mm "Ultra" SMG does a massive 119 damage. I am wearing a Merc Troublemaker Outfit and Red's bandana. Any ideas on what is going on?Mrlighter

Nope, but don't fix the problem, go hunt deathclaws with it (~) Sasquatch99 01:20, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

It's from the damage increasing perks that Point Lookout rewards you with. Automatic weapons benefit the most from it. ~Unholy

Maybe... What perk? There is that defender perk perhaps, but it works when I am moving as well. And for hunting deathclaws, I can kill one in 12 shots with the Chinese Assault Rifle.Mrlighter

It's nice that you sign but it would be better if you signed in with a real user. Go create one and I'll give a cookie to the fastest one! Gabriel Cortez 05:39, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

The Ghoul Ecology perk adds +5 damage to Ghouls, but it actually works against any type of enemy. And the Superior Defender perk adds another 5 points. But I think that with those 2 perks, automatic weapons do an extra +10 damage per shot? I'm not sure if that's true but it would explain why they have such crazy in-game damage stats.

Plus I don't really want to make an account cause it'll just be another log-in that I'll forget the information for... ~Unholy

I guess that would work, yes. But in the meantime I think I'll just stay on as a guest ~Unholy
