What weapons do companions use?

Post » Thu Dec 30, 2010 2:06 am

My Q is what the title says. Boone used pretty much anything i gave him and he owned with the Gobi, but Gannon only seems to use his own gun. I've tried the laser rifle, q35, plasma cannon but he does not equip it. So what weapon should i give him? Or just stick with what he has?

Multiplas, Plasma Caster(with ROF MOD and good CND) and Gauss.

His Plasma defender is actually comparable to .44 magnum....which is why he doesn't use laser rifle or q35.

Arcade is best with Energy weapons, are you sure you gave the correct ammo?

Only the default weapon of a companion has infinite ammo. Also see this http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1134442-boone-questions/page__p__16606172__fromsearch__1&#entry16606172.

I gave him Tesla-Prototype and he uses it for a while. He can't hit the broadside of a barn with it though. I think his Strength may be too low.

If you have Cass, give her the Hunting or Riot shotguns. She will end anything that comes within 50 feet.
