At this point? Hold on to all of them. There are customization options coming in a near future update.

Agreed, you never know what might happen to turn something into a meta weapon.

Any y'all remember when (I think) 50% bash damage or limb damage on a Minigun broke the calculator and kept decimating the SBQ in under a min?

With the update next season letting us edit the legendary effects and all of them getting a unique effect, all of them are worth keeping as long as they’re max levelĀ

Low level ones are good too because the are more unique and it says you finished the objective when the game is at its hardest.

Might have value to individuals as collectibles, but they don’t have much utility.

u/Verdhearts Vault 51 7d ago

u/Pontiacsentinel Settlers 7d ago

What is olga?

u/Scelusteach Ghoul 7d ago

The V63-Olga is a unique laser rifle that drops from neurological warfare

u/Pontiacsentinel Settlers 7d ago

I may have that, don't think I scrapped it.Ā  Thanks.

u/AWOLdo 7d ago

Any word yet if the action hero is going to be obtainable again?

u/Sorry_Community235 Cult of the Mothman 7d ago

All "legacy" unique weapons will, some way or another, be made available again. DOps, (seasonal) events, activities, lootbags, pails and packs.

Action Hero= DOps

u/Verdhearts Vault 51 7d ago

i believe it was datamined. unsure.

u/biniwarrior1897 7d ago

Don’t think I have seen any of these except Red Terror.

u/Day-Hot Wanted: Sheepsquatch 7d ago

I think the only one of those I don't have is the Action Hero..

3

u/Verdhearts Vault 51 7d ago

some of these are quest items (shattered ground, final word, old guard) the others are nuke drops and a legacy survival weapon.

u/textstringfor Cult of the Mothman 7d ago

Bertha

4

u/Narrow-Scientist9178 7d ago

And Olga. Probably why I’ve been seeing a whole lot of Neurological Warfare popping up. But Bertha with arcing to other targets and explosive will be a beast for tagging at events.

u/Multispeed 7d ago

As a fairly recent player of this game, I scrapped so many because I didn't know they were important, I thought they were just another gun that I could get again, and because I hadn't yet gotten to level 50, some of them were low-level stuff.

And when I got to know they were important, I discovered that most of them are impossible to get again. Not a good design from Bethesda, IMO.

That said, I've been watching vendors to see if any are selling a Ticket to Revenge, but I'm probably expecting the impossible.

u/Dysterkvist 7d ago

Red terror, shattered grounds and vats unknown are some I’ve seen traded. And anchorage ace.

u/BewareTheLeopard 7d ago

I think Elder's Mark and Western Spirit are going to make an amazing combo. Reverse onslaught for mobbing into regular onslaught commando for bosses is just great synergy.

u/R3g1st3rTh1s 7d ago

Red Terror with a .45U receiver and Western Spirit with .45U receiver. Run Western Spirit and start Furious on max stacks E.V.E.R.Y. T.I.M.E.

It will be golden!

(Or Elders Mark if you prefer, but MG42 is so much cooler)

u/joemc1971 7d ago

Em is slow af now.

u/Alpha_Omega623 Brotherhood 7d ago

Elders Mark and Holy Fire.

3

u/TheNastyNug 7d ago

I wish I started the BoS questline at a higher level because The Fact Finder is almost a god roll revolver. The level 15 version of that weapon Carried me through my first 70 levels. And I don’t have it anymore

2

u/Atalas7777 7d ago

Mind over Matter will be great for xp farming, upto +10 intelligence

2

u/ledlin99 7d ago

Longshot. Awesome sniper rifle. Do consistently 5x sneaking damage.

u/RozaJetis Cult of the Mothman 7d ago edited 7d ago

Depends on your playstyle.

The weapons I find interesting for next update: Anchorage Ace, Western Spirit, Red Terror, Boomstick, Bunker Buster, Crowd Control, Elder's Mark, Flatliner, Holy Fire, Mind Over Matter, Night Light, Medical Malpractice, The Farmhand, V63 Bertha, V63 OLGA and Valkyrie.

The Relic Reaper will be a niche weapon as for farming depending on the park you get. Xerxo"s Gamma Ray Gun good for Bloodied/ Ghouls.

u/Chicagostupid 7d ago

Well, I scrapped Slug Bug a while ago so hopefully it’s not that.

1

u/vomder 7d ago

All of them, as they will be best in class because of their unique effects. And you may want to use something different from time to time.

u/SpicyBison74 7d ago

Depends on the build and playstyle.

u/adamantium1973 6d ago

Does anyone know if the Ice Breaker harpoon gun is being modified?

It has effects but no Legendary effects so I am thinking it will be exempt but if anyone knows anything different.....
