Top 10 Best Vanilla (NO DLC) Guns and Weapons in Fallout 4

Link to my Twitter:
/ vinylicpuma
Hey guys, back with another Fallout 4 Countdown and today, I figured I could go over some of what I think are the best Vanilla Game, Non-DLC Guns and Weapons in Fallout 4. All of the weapons on this countdown require No DLC to use, so if you buy Fallout 4, you should have access to all of them.
As always, if you liked this video leave a like and let me know what you think!

Did he say that somewhere? I saw him using a variety of armor and weapons and talking about the benefit of each. He used regular armor when steathing around killing with the knife and power armor for other weapons that he said got a bonus from it. Or he could be wearing power armor and trying to get stealth kills as a way to challenge himself because he's still playing fallout 4 in 2017 and he's probably played every archetype of character possible.

[@BetaGuyM_347]

Have you heard of kremvh's tooth? It's a legendary machete with bleed and poison effect, you find it at dunwich borers past all the Raiders and ghouls at the bottom of the pit filled with water, in my opinion it is better than pickman's blade because you can take off the sacrificial blade mod and put it on a different legendary machete which in turn also applies the poison and bleeding effect in addition to the other effect

[@lance134679]

Deliverer was the weapon I chose for my survival mode play through because it and its ammo is light, and the VATS enhancement is ridiculously powerful, giving you the maximum number of shots, depending on your AP. Also, you can get it very early.

[@edmartin875]

Maybe I am misremembering but I thought his pistol was a .44 not a .45. @@johnmarks227

[@lance134679]

The Overseer's Guardian is definitely the best vanilla weapon for the rifleman. The combat rifle is already pretty good, .45 ammo is one of the most abundant ammo types you can find or buy (Arturo often has over 300 rounds in stock), and can be used as an assault rifle or a sniper rifle. It's still pretty decent at high levels, but because it's ballistic damage only and some enemies are very resistant, adding a good energy weapon to your arsenal is recommended.

[@TheTrueAersuy]

Add in DLCs and the Super Sledge becomes a Rocket Bat or a Rocket Sledge and the Fortifying armors become Unyielding or Rad Powered (+3 to all each or +5 Strength each as I stay at 75% irradiated), + Nerd Rage going off regularly and the companion perks of Strong, Cait, Hancock, and Curie going to work for me as well. Four digit damage starting with a 2 before even taking any chems. Character is so high and hits so hard it will make your grandma scream "Rick James"!

[@lance134679]

Of course, I was specifically talking about a rifleman build, but these are great melee builds, which can obviously be OP once you've actually got all the related perks and/or found the special weapon. I'm guessing a Junkie's Super Sledge is only found randomly on high level legendary enemies.

[@SvenTviking]

Over rated. Instigating is better for one shot. Wounding, furious or explosive better for automatic or shotgun.

I don't know why people don't use the laser musket more. It's considered a stealth weapon and its enormous burst damage is great from starting and ending a fight instantly. There's pretty much nothing that can't be killed by a Two-Shot Six Crank Laser Musket

[@Learner0012]

I definitely have to agree about the Deliverer: I loved the weapon (simply from the look at first) from the moment that I found it, and have since then continuously been finding myself using again and again! It's just a good weapon and honestly, there's not really much more to add to that! That being said, I hadn't really thought about how economic the weapon itself was, but knowing that now, I wholeheartedly have to agree. 10mm ammo is just so common and easy to obtain! As for what I myself like to use, I have my own selection of weapons (some that may be legendary, unique, or just situational) that I constantly find myself using: the Reba II for instance, is the first that came to mind. Although (excluding the scope?) its weapon mod parts are randomly chosen when you obtain it (you know, supposedly)... _when I had received it_, I definitely recall the weapon having some very interesting and at-the-time, unobtainable high-tier parts attached (making it powerful compared to my other long distance rifles). Two of it parts (which were never-seen-before) that were either already attached, or were immediately local to it included a recon scope whereas another happened to be a .50 receiver. Because of it's raw damage, (especially at range), and for being immediately motivated to make use of its mirelurk killer perk (who had especially given me a very difficult time during its quest), I just kept on using it among my primary weapons. It went on like that until ammo started being a concern. Later down the road after quite a bit of progression and various choices in perks, the weapon just simply didn't scale quite as well as some other weapons did, so I found myself using it less often, even sometimes during moments when its perk could have been helpful... other weapons just started to feel more appealing! Still, it's carried along with me, and heck maybe I just need the right perks to make it viable again. Kremvh's Tooth: I just find the weapon to be really devastating, and since the blade can be removed from the original machete and attached to another (most likely legendary) machete with no downsides, that just makes it all the more better for when you find that right weapon effect! I myself chose to attach it to a Nocturnal Machete; it becomes _extremely_ deadly at night, still remains viable during the day because of the blade's poison and bleed effects, and honestly, just feels befitting of such an ominous blade. A Troubleshooter's Stun Baton: This was a weapon that I myself, had tried to work towards for a fairly long time. Up until that final mod upgrade, it didn't feel quite as effective as I had desired it to be, but when I finally did get it, it just felt so... right for the job in taking down robots. Plus, the stun upgrade even makes it useful on human should they surprise me while I have it out! Bottlecap mines: I'm *honestly surprised* that this wasn't up there among the top ten weapons! They're cheap to make (especially if that one add-on that lets you make the lunchboxes is true), fairly cheap to buy (if you retrieve the caps after the explosion), and hands-down *_extremely powerful_*! Anything that isn't outright killed by one of these, will undoubtedly be crippled and maimed! They're pretty much a must-have when it comes to big threats like Deathclaws or Behemoths! Alien Blaster Pistol: An interesting weapon that makes for a more damaging, harder-hitting replacement for a laser pistol/rifle at the cost of a "fairly slow" projectile speed. (especially by direct comparison, although you can hardly find it fair to compare the speeds of a laser to a projectile shot. That being said, the shots are rather slow though.) Its got a fast firing speed, great damage per-shot, and holds a large clip-size (with the right mod)! Lastly, one of the weapons that I use the most, and still use tactically, was also one of my first Legendary weapons... an Enraging Institute Rifle: this was found in the same mission that gave me the Righteous Authority, letting make an effective synergy out of the perks of those two weapons! Because Institute Rifle weapons also had low damage per shot, it also meant that I could enrage an enemy without having to take away a great deal of their health. I could then use the ensuing chaos to do whatever, whether it be move, get to cover, heal, distract, or help take-down a threat or two either by engaging a now distracted foe or by making the tougher foes the focus of their former allies. It's really helped save my life in situations that could have otherwise gone completely south!

It's funny because while fighting Slim Malone (pretty sure his name was Malone) he actually dropped me an explosive sub machine gun, and I can say beyond a doubt it's the best weapon in my inventory, it absolutely shreds through any enemies and you don't even need to really aim with it

[@modvind]

You places the Overseer's Guardian at nr 1!? Gauss riffles are without a doubt the best weapon in the game, and if it's a Two Shot Gauss Riffle you're straight up OP

[@plasmaray5969]

The gauss rifle definitely has the most damage but it’s not considered the strongest cause how much the ammo ways and how rare and expensive the ammo is

[@DreddPirateRoberts]

6:53 - I was looking forward to getting more ranks in Gun Nut, so I could fully upgrade The Deliverer. That was until I looted a 10mm Pistol of Two Shot. Now, it's one of my go-to weapons, and The Deliverer has been sitting in a steamer chest, ever since.

[@spacejam_ki2677]

deliverer is still better imo. better accuracy, lighter, less vats cost. A two shot 10 mm is inaccurate af and is much heavier. also, deliverer looks cooler

[@DreddPirateRoberts]

Louis Yeh Yeh It's plenty accurate, and it has much better damage.

[@spacejam_ki2677]

Ernie Velveeta but it weighs a lot and again, is as inaccurate as a shotgun. note: I play survival

[@DreddPirateRoberts]

Louis Yeh Yeh With my 10mm pistol and Deliverer upgraded similarly, the former weighs 6.4, and the latter weighs 7.2. 10mm can hold 24. Deliverer can hold 16. My 10mm has a fire rate of 69, and an accuracy of 66. Deliverer has 99 and 82. True, Deliverer has a lot going for it, but it isn't unequivocally a better weapon.

[@spacejam_ki2677]

Ernie Velveeta this depends, are you a close quarters based character?

[@lastdefense6303]

I always have pickmans blade on me, it's usually one of the first things I get on each playthrough, then I go for either righteous authority or the deliverer. Depending if i'm going for a vats build or an automatic weapon power armor build.

[@lance134679]

The Spray 'n Pray isn't great in survival mode, unless you give it to your companion. Of course, it goes through .45 ammo like crazy, so I would only equip it on a human companion before a tough fight. I kept dying on Survival Mode in the final fight against the BOS, but tried again with Cait wielding the Spray 'n Pray and it turned the tide. If you do decide to use it for yourself, I'd recommend getting both Commando to increase ballistic damage and Demolition Expert to increase the Explosive effect damage. Be careful when there friendlies around as it can make them hostile.

[@MyHentaiGirl]

Lawrence Gillespie Do not give it to your companion They do more dmg to me than the enemy

[@Kermie_Frogman]

New mic/ settup? sounds good bud. But it might be time to start making videos on some other games you like? Branch out a bit, can't hurt to gather info on what your audience is looking for.

[@skykid]

The deliverer might as well be automatic if you have high agility and reaper sprint. Problem is it's a bit weak on harder difficulties and higher levels, even if you use concentrated fire. I eventually switched to Kellogg's pistol and plasma pistols on my stealth pistol playthrough. A nice bonus about gauss rifles is that if you vats with them it automatically charges each shot to 100

[@Rowgue51]

My favorite weapon I've ever found was a two shot hunting rifle. Upgraded to use .50 cal ammo it's base damage is better than the overseers guardian with the same damage multiplying legendary effect. And it also benefits from all the same perks that would further multiply damage like rifelman, sandman, ninja etc. It's also like half the weight of the overseers guardian. Granted .50 cal ammo is expensive and relatively rare in comparison to a lot of others. But the stopping power can't be rivaled by anything other than heavy weapons, and caps are fairly easy to farm insane amounts of with the settlement system.

[@oaksparoakspar3144]

Big Jim is a low tier weapon. Kneecapper is a great effect, but is better on ranged weapons. You can get Big Jim very early on, but as far as damage goes you would be better purchasing Gen. Chow's sword from Trudy in the diner. Even ignoring the so-so modifier (Troubleshooters), just having a Chinese Officer's Sword is going to be superior to Big Jim. Of course, better than both would be to run down to Diamond City and buy the legendary Swatter from Moe.
