Give me the Anti Material rifle with explosive rounds, and I will give you enough Bighorn steaks to feed a family for a year.

I'll give you the mojave on a platter for an anti material rifle with explosive rounds... just devastating on deathclaws

I use it on Legion assassin squads.

Then I spend about five minutes trying to loot the bodies, because I've spread them across 100 yards.

I love the laser rifle, especially with a scope so you can vaporize dudes from a mile away.

I've got new vegas on pc atm having not played it since loving it on 360. Haven't really played much due to work but might go laser weapons or something on a run.

If you shoot the ground near their feet, you can make them dance. Or at the very least constantly fall down.

Dance boy dance

It's a nice gun, especially the tri beam laser rifle

They are easy to deal with if you have some pulse grenades or the protonic inversal axe

Do you use mods?

There are two kinds of people in this world: those who understand the full value of Jury Rigging, and those who are poor.

Incidentally, Gun Runner's Arsenal was a godsend in that it actually gave you something to do with your money past the midgame.

The only problem with Energy Weapons in NV were the perpetual ash / goo piles. I don't know how much effect they had on performance longevity, but the real issue they create is that they still count as a corpse. See, a game cell can only hold a certain number of corpses (15 iirc). When the limit is crossed, a random corpse(s) is removed to bring the number back down; that NPC is permanently removed from the game, and won't ever respawn. As you might have guessed, ash / goo piles count against this limit, but never get removed. So if you like to farm high-population areas for exp / loot (most notably the areas around Vault 3) and start racking up a bunch of ash / goo piles, eventually the number of respawning enemies will dwindle down to nothing permanently.

Tl;dr - don't farm enemies with energy weapons that leave ash / goo piles. The Gauss rifle and Heavy Incinerator are my go-to farming weapons on an Emergy build.

I remember there being a bad reason to use the laser rifle but I never got really deep into the mechanics. Is that fixed with a mod?

Speaking of mods, what is the current hype level for Fallout 4 New Vegas?

Cautious mostly. Especially since the Fallout 3 in Fallout 4 guys quit and dropped it over voices. New Vegas guys are re-voicing everything.

I'm curious about this though:

I use it on Legion assassin squads.

I know all their "random" spawn points, so I litter them with mines. I show up latter, they spawn in and hilarity ensues.

Time is a funny thing. There is always too much of it, except when you need it the most. Then there is never enough.

I couldn't get past the tutorial in 1, but somehow I finally made it over the learning curve in 2 and started to enjoy myself. Last milestone I remember was recruiting the 'Grampy Bones' guy. But then I temporarily lost interest, and shortly thereafter my PC died; all my other computers were and continue to be Macs, so I haven't had a chance to give either another shot.
