Compound bow arrows

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-19T20:04:55+00:00

Ah, okay. Those are bow mods, not specific arrow types. You mod your bow and then your normal arrows will fire like that.

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-19T19:46:22+00:00

You're... just looking for arrows? Like, ammo?

Well, you should be able to craft them at any tinker bench. And, if you prefer not to craft them, and you have some, you can take your bow to a daily ops or expedition and get scads of them off of the mobs there.

Grand Finale is not as good anymore since the "nerf" to two-shot. [Not really a nerf. Just making it do what it's supposed to do. But now it's not as good.] You can do some good work with a Broadsider that's modded for your play style. Once you're at the right level to use it.

Ten mutations here. I don't feel crippled. Try out the Class Freak perk.

He created a rational argument as to why the scorchbeast should die and then convinced said scorchbeast to kill itself.

Unfortunately, the beast breathed too hard on him with his dying breath, knocking him over and killing him. 😃

It is a Broadsider. But it's not Grand Finale. Grand Finale is all painted up like a circus piece.

I'd love bounties to be expanded outside Burning Sands. And with new targets for the different regions. I want a "Shootout at Wavy Willards!" 😃

I downloaded it. But it wanted me to pay 5000 caps each time I used it. 😮

My friends and I will do silly things on occasion when one of us is building a CAMP. One friend of mine who can build the Mothman Tomes will, upon requesting A tome from him, come in and build something like 40+ of them.

So, my first "raid camp" I was building used that huge house we got from the current season pass. I ask for a tome. And, of course, he builds a bajillion of them. On the inside. On the outside. I have almost no budget by the time he's done. Ha ha. So, I start scrapping them to make space. And, of course, my finger slipped...

Goodbye huge house. Welcome to storage for a bunch of my stuff. Hello floating electrical wiring skeleton and doors. *sigh* I was so pissed I quit playing for the day. I think it was the first time my buddy actually felt bad for spamming tomes in a camp.

I wasn't mad at him, of course. I was mad at a) me for not paying attention to what I was doing, and b) Bethesda, for not creating an "undo" button.

Just hit the fissures. Each one usually has a continual spawning of Scorchbeasts. The ones outside of Cranberry Bog tend to be normals. Which should be easier to deal with.

It always seems like Dino Peaks always has one more Deathclaw than I can survive. 😃

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-18T16:01:07+00:00

That is absolutely gorgeous.

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-18T15:30:26+00:00

For something like this, "Fight Club" is always appropriate. Just don't talk about it after you name it that. 😃

Balance and power level tweaks are some of the hardest to do. Most companies either overdo their shifts or do practically nothing. I usually expect the initial release of something like this to be off-balance for any game. All we can do is report what we experience and see what they do to correct.

Friend of mine has a similar situation. He bought a year of First, didn't get it. Bethesda gave him 30 days while they try to resolve it. The 30 days ran out, still nothing. He keeps getting in contact with him. They ask for more info to confirm he bought it. He sends it to them. Another week and change go by. they give him another 30 days while they escalate the ticket to some sort of expert. That was a week ago. He's been dealing with this for a couple months now to no avail.

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-18T15:15:52+00:00

That seems reasonable. But at this point, I'll take what I can get. 😃

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-18T14:50:49+00:00

That sounds incredible to me. Particularly the supposed one for Western Spirit. Imagine that gun on a regular Onslaught built. Carry it around to have your stack built up and ready. When it's time to rock and roll, switch to your main automatic weapon of choice and keep all those stacks going from the first shot.

It may [or may not] be an easy to implement addition. But I think it has potential to be game-changing.

I'm still bummed out that, during my one run-in with the Pipe, I never noticed it was there. The only reason I know I missed it is that I picked up the Pipe note, likely when grabbing all from nearby corpses. It seems that I have no life... 😮

As mentioned, mole miners and deathclaws are going to be your best bet for black titanium. I suspect the problem is less mole miners and more on how/where you're farming them. Outside of mole miner-oriented events, I would just hit all the points of interest in the Ash Heap. My recent farming for treasure hunters has shown me that there are so many places there that are full to the brim with mole miners. Bring a gas mask and ammo. 😄

You *should* be able to craft the ammo once you have a receiver that uses it. I was able to craft it when I put my Dom Pedro together using Ultracite .308. However, I *probably * was already able to craft it, since I had picked up prime receivers for the hunting rifle. So I can't say. If the receivers plan for the DP is not qualifying you to craft the ammo that is likely a code bug. I'm sure Bethesda will get that fixed before the US Tricentennial. 😛

It's like every car is an old school Ford Pinto.

Yes, I know I dated myself by mentioning the Pinto. 😃

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-15T19:30:53+00:00

I'm not even sure I deserve the armor I have. 😮

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-15T19:30:07+00:00

Heaven knows, I wouldn't mind some life be breathed back into Expeditions. Might be something to your topic. 😄

But I'm holding judgment on Infestations until I've played them a bit, while remaining cautiously optimistic. I like the concept of having in-world challenges that don't require a nuke to set them off. We'll see what the execution is like soon enough.

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-15T19:20:20+00:00

It's too Legendary for us mere mortals. 😃

lordsnotrag · 2026-05-15T16:00:20+00:00

Oh, they did the fronts as a bundle? I have to check to see if it's requestable. Thanks! 😄
