When were you glad you had Euclids C-Finder? : Fallout: New Vegas

» Sat Jan 08, 2011 3:27 am

To all the players of Fallout New Vegas ... Whether you chose to activate Euclids C-Finder or not.

If you have it ... when in the game were you glad you had it to use?

If you don't have it ... when in the game did you wish you did have it?

I went to the Fort to kill Caesar and his guards, then they beat the [censored] out of me. I ran like a little girl to the Lucky 38, got the C-finder out of the inventory of a companion I let wait there, went back and killed them all!

The C finder is weak, it needs a buff, I had 100 EW too.

Direct hit.

I won by using a technique I call stimpack spam. So glad I had over 100 of them at one time.

and here I am thinking that the C-Finder would come in handy during the final battles ....

never, its always been glitched for me. it always doesnt fire, and then somehow fires on me. dunno if they fixed it or not.

but i guess if it wasnt glitched, legate lanius. he makes behemoths look like kitty cats.

I never arm the Archimedes. Space lasers don't exactly fit with the general Fallout theme; having one at your disposal feels like cheating.

Space lasers fit exactly with the Fallout theme. These are the kinds of things you could have if unlimited power was at your disposal. To say a giant laser doesn't fit is to say that directed high-energy plasma weapons and power armor doesn't fit.

Well the thing does work. It puts on a show.

I did test it a while back on a bunch of fire ants. I'll have to test it on a herd of deathclaws. Maybe on the east bank of the river.

Does this thing work in a cave or mine or vault or underwater?

Well, I was glad Itook it from teh kid before he nuked his pal....

But, aminly, I was stunned. I figured something as powerful as this could kill an NCR Ranger. But noo.... it took 3 bottlecap miens afterwards.

Was the C-Finder downpowered in a patch update perhaps?

I heard that patch updates took away damage points from some weapons.

Archimedes II inflicts 150 damage.

It is victim to the over-nerf that all other explosive weapons have been victimized by.

"over-nerf" ???

The C-Finder stopped working for me after a while. So I switched to the fat man. Less time to wait for the shot.

Saw a legion rainding party, took out my E finder, didn't see the party anymore

» Sat Jan 08, 2011 2:39 am

Never.... when I found it, I had already completed "That Lucky Old Sun" and didn't power Archimedes II....

So the thing did what it was supposed to do finally. Finally a good report.

Considering it can be used once a day, has its own quest, weighs 15 lbs and its a freaking space laser. Thats a pathetic amount.

Did it ever have more power? What was its power in FONV v.1.0.0?

I'm trying to remember the power of the space laser in FO3. But wasn't that limited to just one location?
