Good Intentions is a unique weapon in Fallout 4.

Background

They say most evil in the world is done by men with good intentions, and this holds true for Clint, a treacherous Minuteman who sold his men out to the Gunners for a position of authority. This rifle is his personal firearm.

Characteristics

The laser gun spawns as either a pistol or a rifle, according to leveled lists. The biggest asset is the legendary effect, which has the ability to cause targets to frenzy upon a critical hit. Modded with a mid- to long-range, impressive damage output, and relatively high accuracy, this is a remarkable weapon for dealing with groups of enemies at range.
