Broken Steel

Bethesda will probably patch that.

I don't remember if it was you or not who did it. I just remember stating that it'd be cool if someone was able to find enough BB ammo to take the Behemoth down with the BB gun.

I hope they do. I'm afraid to explore subways.

You just reminded me why I've been stockpiling BBs.

I'm up to 100 or so. I could kill him, right? ... right? ;_;

Uhhh... Sure... you go do that while I sit here and laugh when you run out of ammo...

If you didn't screw Tenpenny Tower, I think the guard there has a stockpile of BB's that respawn. Maybe Flak and Schrapnel have some too.

When I run out of ammo, I'll just let Charon take over with his Tesla Cannon.

I got 70+ from Flak, and Tenpenny's place gave me jackshit. So, nearly 200 BBs now. I'm guessing about 1000 headshots to take a Behemoth down. D=

If you invest caos in the caravan that sells weapons, they might have some.

But back to Broken Steel. I heard that the new perks were a bit disappointing, and after looking over them, I agree. They don't seem to be as creative as the original perks for the game.

Quantum Chemist is nice, seeing as I drunk/sold most of the Quantums early on. I love Puppies! too, and apparently Nuclear Anomaly makes you invincible, if you are are poisoned by rads. Deep Sleep, Nerves of Steel, No Weaknesses, Party Boy/Party Girl, Rad Absorption, Rad Tolerance, Warmonger are all useless. Almost Perfect is useless too, if you thought out your character ahead of time. Devil's Highway, Escalator to Heaven, and Karmic Rebalance are only good to get the achievements.

Really only two good perks. I say just catch up on missed perks.

Almost Perfect sounds kinda fun, but once you've reached level 30, what's the point? You can probably mow everyone down regardless of your SPECIAL.

I care not for Puppies! as Dogmeat is nearly useless. He gets himself killed more often than Kenny from South Park, and he's only useful to look for weapons and ammo.

Quantumn Chemist does sound nice, as it's a much easier way to complete "The Nuka-Cola Challenge" and a good way to make Nuka-grenades.

Dogmeat might be useless, but he's a distraction. When you're getting attacked by three Deathclaws, and Dogmeat attacks them all, giving you time to MIRV hit.

I beat the Nuka-Cola Challenge a lot easier by stealing from the woman's house, and then giving the Quantums to her. There's 70 or so Nuka-Colas there.

Except, when he's attacking, he often jumps in front of your bullets, gets killed, and leaves the enemy with full health.

Yeah, but also because I simply find a crap load of Nuka cola, and I end up with like 150 bottles sitting in my vending machine collecting dust.

He's been buffed with Broken Steel.

You can't change Ice-Cold Nuka-Cola into Quantum. **** sux.

How so? I still have a hard time believing he'll be anything more than a nuisance.

I know that, but if I have an *** load of nuka-cola and they all get changed into quantum, so I won't even need to go home and put them in my machine.

Some people say his health has been buffed. I read a topic where he lasted five minutes against Fawkes. But he seems to get killing by a Bloatfly for me.

I had to put all my Nuka-cola in the locker. Seeing as I have 100+ in my Nuka-cola machine, it's a bit of a rip off.

Meh, I still wouldn't use him.

Yeah, but if you start a new character and keep all of your Nuka-Colas in the fridge instead of in the vending machine you'll end up with a bunch of quantum's when you finally get the perk.

I can't get enough of the new content in Broken Steel. The Tri-Beam laser Rifle is sick, and the Enclave Hellfire Armor is as good as the T-51b. The Mutant Overlords, Ghoul Reavers, and Albino Radscorpions are a welcome challenge. I just use some Psycho and shred those Reavers with The Terrible Shotgun. I still need to actually play the extended storyline, but I have to get all the stuff I lost when my two previous games were deleted. I still need to find a Tesla Cannon and that flamethrower that shoots flames and that should be all the new weapons. (Spoiler Alert}Does anyone know if you can actually get enough parts to build Liberty Prime again?

The Metal Blaster is better than the Tri-Beam, in my opinion, it only takes one MF Cell for nine beams.

The Tesla Cannon is in the main quest, and there's three new flame weapons.

And no, you can give all the partsx1000, and still not.

The Tri-Beam does more damage and it has a little more range so I think it's better. By the way Animefreak that is one nasty avy.
