Well I personally like the survivalists rifle, its almost like full auto, great damage accuracy and power.
and for a handguns I like the seqouia, even with like 5 bullets it can take out 2 or more deathclaws

My favorite weapon is the ripper. Very useful against nightkin and super mutants, and does a lot of damage in VATS. And it is just a cool weapon, to.

Hunting Rifle or .45 Pistol.

Tough question... I guess my favorite would have to be the Y28(whatever) Gauss Rifle. Its the only thing that makes energy worth while, and I love how it throws my targets around like a rag doll.

I am a fan of both the YCS/186 and the Holorifle+++

YCS is an amazing rifle but eats up ammo like deathclaws eat up mole rats

All American all the way baby, love that gun.

I love... so many of them! Can I just, like, fool around a lot?

The Ion cannon.
Oh you meant Fallout NV weapons?
The Personal Ion cannon.

Anti-Materiel Rifle. God, I love incendiary rounds.

Different weapons for different builds.

I lean towards energy sniping so the YCS with overcharges and the meltdown perk is my #1 . High luck , Finesse , better criticals, just un-freaking-believable devastation. Bodies fly in all directions. It's my God hammer , it smites the hoardes of non-believers.

I like the AMR but it's too heavy to be practical and the ammo is expensive , love those match rounds. I take it where I plan to meet deathclaws and when crossing the dam . Though, a fully modded sniper usually gets the job done. With much less weight and less AP cost.

For explosives I like a modded grenade rifle better than Thump-Thump, the extra range is worth it. Oh, and of course Annabelle !

For melee The Shishkebab or Knock Knock .

Never done an unarmed build , but I usually pick up Love & Hate fairly early on because it's the best holdout weapon. Better than a silenced .22 even with a guns specialist character.

Doesn't take much science skill to convert ammo types and MFC's are cost effective and plentiful compared to the 45-70 govt. rounds your sequoia uses.

Either the Holorifle or the Tri-beam.

I prefer the marksmans carbine with its lower power scope (That I like to think is a 4x ACOG.)

The All American has the scope power of the sniper rifle (I think of it as an 8x scope because its double the marksmans carbine 4x). I use the AA as a light sniper rifle similar to an SPR I load it with surplus rounds for more punch as match 5.56.

The marksmans carbine is more like a handy M-4 with a 4xACOG that you might find in Afghanistan being carried by an American infantyman. The marksmans carbine seems perfect for a place like Nevada.

Lucky.

Cheap, spammable ammo and super easy to repair, yet very deadly with the right setup. (high luck, custom ammo, cowboy)

I can't just choose one. :sadvaultboy:

- YCS/186 = Favorite Energy Rifle.
- Compliance Regulator = Favorite Energy Pistol
- Survivalist's Rifle/This Machine = Favorite Rifle(s).
- Anti-Materiel Rifle = Favorite Sniper Rifle.
- 12.7mm Submachine Gun = Favorite FAW.
- .45 Automatic Pistol/A Light Shining in Darkness = Favorite Handgun(s).
- .45 Auto Submachine Gun = Favorite FAR

Mercy its hard to get but so worth it.

First time in 5 play throughs that I have upped my energy weapons over 50. I am liking the Holorifle a lot now I have 70 odd skill and all the mods. Cheap on ammo and good for short and medium long range and it hits hard.
