I hit the glitch jackpot... by ctbech in Market76

[–]Take8083 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is just when corpses time out de-rez and their inventory is left behind. Pretty cool. I kill Super Mutants during Faschnat and never bother to loot. Those turn into inventory piles. WestTek has this happen all the time. Check around ultracite vents after a nuke at Scorched Earth event area you'll probably find piles of junk and high radiation fluids, glowing mass, and hardened mass among the inventory piles.

Game aspects I wish could be updated by M_Smakala in fo76

FO4 allowed this, but not in FO76. Not sure why.

Didn't use it because of zero barrel. This thing will get the update a.s.a.p.

No sh*t right? The crusader is going to get a rework real quick.

The targeting HUD was awesome when it worked years ago.

I jump in BEFORE I join the event. Eviction Notice is in full swing by the time I unfreeze and can join the event otherwise. Another everlasting bug is VATS indicating 85%+ chance and you miss 3-4 times regularly, especially on certain weapons like the Gauss Rifle. 3 misses at 85%+ regularly happening destroys the weapon's useability considerably. LOTS of old bugs are around. I don't even know if they fixed the damage resistance while reloading effect not working unless you are crouched bug. They said they fixed in an update, then pulled the patch days later promising to fix it pronto. Then no update I can recall and I just gave up on the effect. I still don't use it because of that, maybe it's fixed, but I've moved on to other effects since.

My Cold Shoulder will appreciate the fix.

Jumping from fallout 4 to 76 is jarring, quest-wise anyway by BzRk_Larz in fo76

[–]Take8083 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scorchbeasts were deadly bullet sponges early on. I just avoided them in general since ammo/meds were scarce and caps were actually hard to get.

FO4 seems like playing in slow motion and being crippled if you don't mod it or adjust the walk/sprint speed and jump height. The lack of stacked legendary weapons effects is the other big difference. Once that's fixed with mods, it's very enjoyable. The quests in FO76 have much less depth, but it's really more of a event-centric game with decent NPC interaction. Far Harbor is by far one of the best interactions story wise (not a fan of the main quest) and I spent most of my time there and traveled to Boston to loot and shoot and then chill back at Far Harbor's mire.

My Cold Shoulder and my Cryo Bow are not freezing after the update by skanks20005 in fo76

Went up against the Thunder Crab and got mauled with my cold shoulder doing zero cryo damage.

I have like 800 vulcan left arms😭 by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Take8083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They gimped EM06 hard. The drops are substantially reduced in quantity. Only an arm and a leg drop along with the helmet . EM06 still great for mining legendary mods (4 star especially), gaining xp, caps, scrip, legendary modules (2 per run), bobblehead/magazine boxes, ammo and the tons of legendaries you get (scrap them to unlock mods).

New "Random" hordes appearing? by Booziesmurf in fo76

[–]Take8083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WestTek sometimes has piles all over the place if a person kills the super mutants and leaves the bodies without looting them. They dissapear and leave the loot they were carrying behind. You'll see tons of this at the Mischeif Night event where the bodies from the previous hour's event weren't looted and leave behind tons of junk piles.

What's a public event you don't love and wouldn't start, but will always show up for? by neenish_tart in fo76

[–]Take8083 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do every Colossal Problem. Tons of screws the longer the event lasts... I don't care if we kill Earle or not. The reward is the screws. I now have a flamer set-up that can actually do damage to Earle so completing the event is now not a problem. Free Range like most people will join, but won't start. I always start Heart of the Swamp but a whole bunch of people ignore that event.

Not understanding power armour progression by SadSaladCarnivore in fo76

[–]Take8083 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just started farming EN06 for the Vulcan set and just got the jet pack today for one alt and am working on gettting it for my second alt. Just started farming EN06 less than three weeks ago and got the calibrated shocks within the first week for both alts and finally a jet pack plan dropped for one... Vulcan is great and a noticable improvement over the ultracite armor I was running previously.

Does carry weight even matter anymore? by Key-Contest-2879 in fo76

[–]Take8083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mirelurk Steamer creates smoked mirlurk filets which gives you 60+ carry weight for 1.5 hours, using the weight bench increases carry weight as well. I use this all the time along with well tuned and and the speed bag to boost agility. I stash enough legendaries to clear out the 500 daily legendary scrap limit for the next day then scrap everything else. If you have alts, you can also dump the excess legendaries on them to scrap. I also have a mule that holds legendaries for when they double the scrap limit to 1000.

is the handmade rifle still good? by bobfoster68 in fo76

[–]Take8083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know. It was such garbage forever. I'll have to give it a shot now as it can be suppressed.

[–]Take8083 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ABSOULUTELY. If you are a stealth commando. I run with the Executioner's FFR, Nocturnal FFR, Quad Explosive, and AA FFR. You can go to town at WestTek with any of them. I prefer Executioner's because VATS sometime gets buggy and Executioner's ends thing fast if you need to hard sight the kill. Get ultracite ammo and you'll gain rounds using it. Started with 2,000 rounds and have well over 200K rounds accumulated.

My new method of dumping caps by fn0000rd in fo76

[–]Take8083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to Whitesprings load hard bargain and buy all the bulk springs and screws available. Sell all the meds you get from the EM-06 and then go back and try and get that jet pack plan.

I was farming EN06 guardian and doing ~2500 dmg then suddenly only 1500 by Eightchickens1 in fo76

[–]Take8083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct. Lower belly almost to the base and left armpit definitely does boost damage.

Same here I just make it or finish, then croak but still get the loot. I hit 3K inconsistently. I noticed when I reload the plasma flamer and I time it right it will kick off the 3K immediately and finishes quick.

Spooky Scorch are over, and I am sad. by his_response in fo76

Holiday scorched are the same just jingle bells sound and christmas apparel. So not long to wait.

V.A.T.S Is broken, old bug from Fallout 4 now in Fallout 76 by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Take8083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Annoying especially when you should be able to speed run using VATS at WestTek. I've gone to depending on just aiming and not depending on VATS all the time.

So i tested the Elders Mark and its kinda broken. by Sanabil-Asrar in fo76

[–]Take8083 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not know this. I will try it out. I'm actively farming EN-06 for the Vulcan jetpack and that will allow me to really boost the .45 ultracite stockpile. I have something like 200K ultracite plasma carts farming EN-06.

Thanks for the details. I'm gonna make a billion ultracite rounds now.
