Fallout 4 Message Board  

I was just thinking why do WE who play with cheathappens trainers need any weapon other then the MINIGUN! this thing can turn almost any enemy very quickly into tomato paste.

So those enemies a bit shy about closing in to be slaughtered by the Mini-Gun can be done away with the trusty old night scoped Sniper rifle.There are always some that insist in hanging back out of range of the slaughtering Mini-Gun.

Issue is when building guns I found that the pistol stock gave the gun more range then the marksman stock... So all my pipe bolt actions end up being sniper pistols...

Minigun is weak as hell , even when you upgrade it ...
i would rather see 120dmg/sec then 33ish or something like that. Also it might have the lowest stats from all guns at all, besides rate of fire. And im really disappointed with the upgrades to.

The thing is with the Minigun it really depends on what difficulty your playing the game at. On survival the gun is weak but on normal its brutal.

Just my opinion.

What you said of course makes perfect sense and even though I am cheating I am playing the game on very easy difficulty.

I play on normal and ofcourse depending on the level of your enemies it does seem quite satisfying turning them into a puddle of blood and bones. I found the gatling laser to be better with a crazy high fire rate and better damage then the minigun.

For those looking for a upgraded flamethrower find a plasma weapon and put the flamer muzzle on it. Plasma sniper rifle also does alot more damage then the regular sniper rifle or hunting rifle. Ofcourse if you need really high damage get a fatman or a missile launcher.

Wait until you get the exploding shotgun or the exploding rifle you'll throw that minigun away.
