Forum:When do you start getting weapons that dont suck not caring about spoilers?

i'm trying to have fun with the game but the last gun i got was a hunting rifle and i want to know when i could get better weapons i am on "The House Always Wins III" i dont care about spoilers just let me know !!!!!

If you prefer unarmed/melee, you can get the Paladin Toaster in a cave nearby Black Mountain, which is great against robots and power-armored enemies. See Mysterious Magnum if you want a good pistol to use. The All-American can be found in the Vault 34 armory, which is a good, balanced semi-auto rifle. Also, once your character reaches level 14, the Anti-materiel rifle becomes available at pretty much any gun dealer in the wasteland. That's a great one if you prefer sniper rifles. Have fun!

if you can get 55 lockpicking and a book for that skill+comprehension so the book gives you +20 to it you can get lucky from the bison motel, fairly good unique 357 magnum, honestly in the beginning of this game half the time the best offense is a good defense, i have foregone using armor with bonuses so i can use items like reinforced leather or something like that where i can actually survive a radscorpion attack..lol, as for the rest similar to as he said, once you get to novac you can easily steal "that gun" with no penalty except to karma, then nearby is a road that leads to the man by the billboard for sunset sarsaparilla, he has the mysterious magnum, i find pickpocketing his ammo then punching him so he unequips the gun the best action so you can still use him for that quest thing, that you always fail if you kill him, vault 34 i would suggest NOT going to until you have at least 1 unique gun, good skills, and alot of rad away, and maria is easy enough just grab the perk that effects guys in chat and convince benny to talk to you peacefully when your in vegas, you can easily kill him and take it, the rest are probably easier found by just looking up the unique variants of guns, or guns like the anti material rifle, etc, hope that helped.
