Talk:Annabelle

Annabelle feels very underpowered and unfinished, considering the unusable scope.--Nomoreoxygen 08:44, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

Thats the name of my 2nd Bass Guitar. Awesome.

Lost?
So if i killed the Nightkin Sniper when i first went through Black Mountain but didnt loot him, then continued on with the rest of the game, is it lost forever? I went back to Black Mountain, and there were some Nightkins that respawned, but the Snipers body is gone and he does not respawn.

Yes, unless you use a PC and cheat.--80.216.171.111 16:54, December 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * i figured i'd loot the corpses after i finished crazy crazy crazy, and got raul as a follower, so he could carry some of it. unfortunately, all the super mutant corpses disappeared after i rescued him. 98.254.110.65 03:51, December 27, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah that can happen at any point with any npc's corpse when going into a different cell, to be safe grab the inventory and drop it on the ground if you cant carry it all at the time.

Larger explosion radius?
I did some tests with the regular missile launcher and the Annabelle. I have splash damage and 1 rank of demolition expert. I did the testing outside of the crimson caravan entrance, always staying the exact distance from the building's wall. I did testing with each launcher using regular,high explosive(HE), and high velocity. In every single test, the Annabelle's explosion radius was slightly larger than a regular missile launcher. Can any else verify this? Your help will be appreciated. -- 17:06, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't a number for you, but my unarmed/explosives build cleanned Quarry Junction with the help of this weapon. Perhaps is not the blast radius, because this weapon is more accurate and deals more damage than the regular missile launcher, so the blast will be more powerfull (dispite what the page says, BTW).

I've always noticed this, and when using HE rounds, it's possible to take out a HUGE area in one blast --Nicky NV 22:53, February 1, 2011 (UTC)

Condition % when obtained
I suspect the weapon is at 0 durability because you or your NPC shot it up. The launcher is so large it is very hard to hit the Nightkin without hurting the weapon. I've sniped the legs and this weapon was obtained at 100%.

Does Demolition Expert perk affect this weapon?
I notice that unlike other explosive weapons this wiki entry doesn't list any bonus from the demolition expert perk in the attack statistics. Does Demolition Expert affect this weapon or is it unaffected like the Mercenary's Grenade Rifle?

I noticed that too. Gonna test that out manually (I'm on PS3) and see if Annabelle's DAM increases upon leveling up and getting DE. EDIT: Just tested it and found some interesting results - my Plasma Grenades, Grenade Launcher, and Grenade MG all got a decent damage boost after taking DE, however the Fat Man and Annabelle were completely unaffected. I'm guessing that this is a bug of some sort, possibly with shoulder-mounted weapons. 68.110.27.209 02:43, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

Does no damage
I am at the legion safehouse and I ran to the west towards some bighorners there and I shot this weapon at least 30 times at a bighorner and it did no damage at all. I direct impacted the bighorner with the missile and it did no damage. If I target the bighorner in VATS with the annabelle missile launcher then I will always hit if it explodes near the enemy. Why is this happening?--Terminator512 18:44, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

Why is the trivia section constantly deleted?
Is there a specific reason why the trivia section which states that Annabelle just so happens to share a name with the shotgun used by Father Grigori from Half-Life 2 keeps on being deleted? I find it to be an interesting tidbit and would like to know why this can't be shared with others under the trivia section.--BattleBen 04:56, April 29, 2011 (UTC)

It shares a name with my sister's cat, too. Unless there's a real reason to make a link, it's not really interesting trivia. 81.178.138.49 08:46, June 19, 2011 (UTC)
