What's going on guys! This is VinylicPuma, back with another Fallout 4 video and today, I figured I would go over 10 of what I think are some of the Most Fun and Most Entertaining Guns and Weapons in Fallout 4. Obviously, this video will be a little subjective, but I think you'll generally find that many of the weapons i'm about to go over are genuinely pretty fun to use and you should get quite a bit of enjoyment out of using them.
If you liked this video, feel free to leave a like, click the bell so you can be notified when i upload more videos and also let me know what you think are some of the Most Fun Weapons to Use in Fallout 4!

They should add bows to fallout and a unique bow with the kneecapper legendary effect

[@nafisashaikh7818]

I was once a young adventurer like you, but I took an arrow to the knee

[@gluxetv8327]

I see what u did tehre

[@GameBang666]

It should be called the Whiterunner

[@Deeplycloseted435]

Yup, I thought it was ridiculous that there was no bow. I literally play Far Cry games with a knife and a bow. Its the ultimate stealth projectile weapon. It requires accounting for projectile drop over distance. Its always satisfying putting an arrow into somebodies head that never even sees you.

[@donnerblitzen1388]

If I remember, they did try that in earlier games and it did not work well in vats. The incompatibility with the vats is what caused it to be dropped from fallout 3 and later games.

[@mindyauron9137]

The second I saw the paddle ball as a weapon and could use weaponized paddle ball string, I spend so long grinding to get the strings just for the sake of knowing I would kill super mutant behemoths and mirelurk queens with rubber balls Ahhhh, this is how Cricket feels

[@Vault777Overseer]

The ripper from far harbor thats got a stagger effect legendary on is better then all base rippers in my opinion

[@cheese6039]

Vault 777 Overseer The Harvester, correct?

[@ariesmars8592]

Yes yes it

[@CthulhuRuby]

It has a legendary effect of course it's going to be better

[@Hatsworthful]

The ripper is one of the best weapons if you want to roleplay as a space marine :v

Have you seen a furious ripper, if you do vats, well dayum

[@retroambassador2945]

Striker, bottle cap mines, broadsider, western revolver, double barrel shotgun with unending legendary effect.

[@thegreatcornholio5025]

Wounding laser or 10mm are some of my favorites.

[@scrungalicious1053]

the paddleball has got one of the best reload animation

[@MikeLeePapi]

Definitely enjoyed a video of you just talking about Fallout 4 stuff that you find cool. Would love more strictly opinion vids.

[@UnspokenOldOne]

I thought knee capper was an effect when you VATS shot them in the legs...like it did more leg damage when you shot them in the legs. My world is changed forever.

[@simon4775]

I've been following your channel since you had reached 40.000 subscribers and still remember how exited you were reaching 100k. In the next few days you are gonna get 300k and I just wanted to congratulate you on this milestone. Every time I see one of your flashy thumbnails I get excited to watch your next video. Thank you man for these awesome years!

[@dankpitbro693]

Double barrel explosive shotgun is just baddass

[@RavenNumberOne]

Have you tried a Never Ending Double Barrel Shotgun? Probably the most OP weapon in the game. And crazy fun.

[@jordanbridenstine8372]

It’s crazy that in 2024 I still reference all his fallout 4 videos

[@Deeplycloseted435]

Its weird how everyone plays differently. I NEVER use heavy or automatic weapons. Heavy weapons are too “heavy”, I dump perk points into pistols and rifles first, and by late game I’m just set in my ways. The Deliverer, fully upgraded 44 pistol, Overseer’s Guardian, and a fully upgraded Assault Rifle is pretty much all I need. I use shotguns a lot early game before Assault Rifles appear and I can upgrade them, but eventually ammo becomes scarce if you use them a lot. The Missile Launcher is way underpowered. At least unless you have all perks and upgrades. The Fat Man is so heavy, and you only get one shot at a time with very limited ammo. Sometimes I’ll use a fully upgraded Righteous Authority. Really the 10mm pistol when upgraded isn’t bad, but the Deliverer, despite no sight, has no recoil, and you can unload a lot of shots very quickly. Its also a killer sneak weapon and very accurate. Why no bows in FO4???? They are great stealth weapons in most games. They could have made different types of arrows that can be crafted. Also a huge opportunity missed not including uranium depleted ammunitions in FO4. Seems like it would fit the game well, adding radiation damage to any ammo type.

[@towlie710]

I'm having alot of fun with the nuka nuke launcher. The Fatman variant ammo is fairly easy to craft once you run through nuka world with plenty of Quantum throughout the park and I love that blue mushroom cloud- I've literally gone from a character who'd snipe off enemies from a distance before closing in and cleaning up in stealth to someone who just pops up in power armour, launches several blue nukes then smashing my way through any remaining resistance with my explosive combat shotgun.

[@Raiden8787]

There's one weapon I've found particularly useful is the kneecapper switchblade and yes its a genuine weapon

[@gamester512]

Another fun (if very dangerous to the player as well as any enemies) is the MIRV version of the Fat Man, especially if it has the Two-Shot legendary effect, as a Two-Shot MIRV will fire a total of *TWELVE* Mini-Nukes at the target....in exchange for drastically reduced range. So, if you aim at something that's too close with a Two-Shot MIRV....you're probably going to kill yourself even in fully upgraded X-01 Power Armor.

[@whiterunjarl625]

I would say my favorite gun/weapon to use in fallout 4 is a 2 shot missile launcher with a targeting computer. I will admit that it is very over powered.

[@ultimaterecoil1136]

Badlythoughtboy 13 fatman and double barrel are the best weapons for the never ending effect

[@ultimaterecoil1136]

This is because of the insane fire rate of those rate of those weapons.

I thought the shredder modification was just for bashing and cosmetic. I didn't know you can use it like that!

[@arthur3545]

[@michaeljacksin9367]

the first time I played fallout the game just naturally pushed me to danse to diamond city to the railroad and silver shroud and it was pretty insane

[@soplet6121]

Lorenzo's artifact, aye? That's quite practical if you can get several hundreds of gamma ammo.

[@macmacox]

my current build is based on the furious power fist and strength,agility, luck perks. I went int,agl,balance for my first playthrough 4-5 years ago and so far this is a lot more interesting.

[@schizoempirialist]

[@Zthewise]

I wish you could use the Power Fist in Power Armor. But oh no your hands are now to big, but you can use a 10mm pistol just fine.

[@Larry_02]

I tend to use semi auto rifles , because you have a high rate of fire, but not blowing all your ammo really quick.

[@green-eyesdragon6570]

The deliverer has the most stupid fire rate... and I love it

[@friedegg646]

i think the kneecapper effect is best used at the rolling pin

[@arthur3545]

I'm so fucking lucky I found this channel

[@jediknight1294]

The fact the deliver is in 10mm in game in its best form upsets me, it should be in .32 like the Chinese pistol and in .38 with a .22 option for an incredibly quiet silenced pistol. I added several mods to calibres to add ammo types and extended options because I am a real gun geek. The fact the Walther has a good trigger response on game is hilarious though the real ones suck.

[@xzywbq]

0:54 bruh it's inspired by the Makarov pistol

[@vlogfriendsutopia]

Nay, in fact, the Makarov is inspired by the Walther PPK. If you look at the gun, you can very clearly see that it is in fact a Walther PPK. In fact, the name itself is a callback to when James Bond receives it for the first time. Listen for the line, "Delivery like a brick through a plate glass window."

You need to slap the "shredding" mod on it to do so

Love that you used the fatman on the children of Atom. They are now forever basking in His eternal glow.

[@DelinquentChibi]

My favorite automatic weapon, next to the op problem solver/splattercannon rifles, is an automatic assault rifle. Works as an LMG, virtually no recoil, and fairly cheap and common ammo for mid to late game. And it's got a fairly good damage output.

[@mischievousjr.9299]

It's honestly pretty fun, especially with that fat ass drum mag. Something I don't use till I have 5.56 STACKED.

[@Nyxael5845]

I like how the Minigun becomes useless until you reach higher levels unless you obtain a good legendary prefix with it. Once you get a Wounding or Explosive Minigun, slap in an Accelerated Barrel and use the right perks and you basically won the game. I once got an Explosive Minigun at Level 60 and I leveled up all the way to Level 90 without spending any additional perk points. The weapon is *that* good.

[@barackobama129]

That isn’t difficult to begin with imo

[@V.Sensei]

Hey, Puma, great vid, but you oughtta know that ranged weapons with the furious legendary effect cannot drop in game

[@DelinquentChibi]

Really? I've found a few, I think... Ah, well. There's two handmade rifles in the nuka world DLC with the furious effect.

[@V.Sensei]

@@DelinquentChibi heres the thing... Both the splattercanon and the other one that you get from mason are the only ranged weapons with the furious effect, as it can only drop in game as melee/unarmed. As you said, they can be ridiculously powerful, thus beeing op, and not dropping for game balance

[@DelinquentChibi]

@@V.Sensei I imagine that's probably why. Balance. Imagine an automatic assault rifle with the furious effect. And people thought the Splattercannon/Problem Solver rifles were OP...

[@V.Sensei]

@@DelinquentChibi yes

[@barackobama129]

J. Lee Tillery hardly makes sense since the explosive combat shotgun and explosive minigun exist. In fact I’d be inclined to believe those are superior.

[@jayd1os400]

it's no suprise that the fat man is number 1. And i will admit that the weapon is insanly fun to use. now there are some problems that i have with the fat man first off the ammo for it can be extremly heavy in survival. and also the fact that some enemies can be cinda what i would call explosive sponges this is aspecially the case with the nuka world raiders in fact you can fire one shot at them and they can survive that one explotion and they are able to heal themselives with stimpack faster than youre able to reload youre Fat man. which means it take more shots to kill them than neccecary and this can be really frustrating. but ofcourse it will depent on if you've build youre character around heavy weapons and demo expert. but otherwise the Fat man is so iconic the series and can't really play a fallout game without having to use it once or twice but thats like but thats like saving you can't really go to italy without eating some Pizza there if you know what i mean :D

[@ultimaterecoil1136]

Jayd1Os just do legendary farming via saves till you get one with the legendary effect that makes it use 5.56 ammo

I just wanted to point out (for anyone who's curious) the furious version of the ripper is superior to the wounding effect. While the damage between wounding and furious is comparable at lower levels, at higher levels it's much different, and furious will be the stronger of the two.
