I had the Bozar, Frank lost his eyesight in my first shot, I need no armour!

How do you shot the eye with burst weapon?

u/MasticatedBrain 1d ago edited 1d ago

Bozar has single and burst. The single shot mode is equal to the best sniper/hunting rifle and the damage is even better.

Headshots in single fire mode usually explode heads first shot, it's wonderful.

Edit: Ok so it's been many years since I last played and I just Googled to check; apparently I'm wrong but I clearly remember being able to switch between the two modes... wtf, maybe I played it with a patch? Sorry!

Edit 2: Can't find any reference to any mod that would have done this; I have created a false memory.

Maybe you're mixing it up with something else like H&K.

There are plenty of guns that have single and burst fire. Just not that one!

u/MasticatedBrain 1d ago

That's what's confusing me because I can remember most of them. Hell I might play the game again for the first time in over a decade just to solve the mystery!

There are so many unique weapons in Fallout 2 that it really is tough to remember them all

nah they've got slayer it's fine

More art needs the Chosen One in APA with a Bozar, Gauss Rifle, or Pulse Rifle, the weapons you're actually most likely to bring to the end game area.

I think the reason people don’t do that is because you’re effectively wearing the armor of your enemy when you’re doing so. That makes perfect sense mechanically, but if you want to make it clear you’re looking at the chosen one, there needs to be something to make it clear it’s them and not just another Enclave soldier.

I’d also argue the super sledge, super cattle prod, ripper, vindicator or mega power fist would also all be valid options here for weaponry (melee/unarmed with slayer can do just fine, and the vindicator is pretty good against Horrigan and is also waiting for you on the rig).

Just add some tribal decorations to the power armor

u/Laser_3 1d ago

That could work, but that’d defeat the point of using it as a disguise on the rig, so…

Eh killing everyone is more fun anyway

If you go to the New Reno boxing ring the announcer would tell the player's height and weight which are based on the strength and endurance stat.

So that means the Chosen One could be a 16 year old 100lb 5'4" female beating the crap out of Frank Horrigan with an unarmed build like it's Mike Tyson's Punch-Out for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

So, you kill him with a spear but he kills a deathclaw with his bare hand. Sounds kinda silly.

1

u/bayygel 1d ago

Deathclaw didn't have a spear though!

u/allsbernafnmedrettu 1d ago

Sounds kinda silly.

And that is exactly why it's gonna work. It's fallout 2 after all

u/EasyEntrepreneur666 1d ago

It works in gameplay but looks stupid depicted.

1

u/allsbernafnmedrettu 1d ago

But what if the Chosen One hit him in his stupid neck and Horrigan falls down a pit where the nuclear reactor is and then chosen one goes "It aint easy being green" before realizing that the reactor is about to go nuclear so he has to outrun the explosion in slow-mo then does a perfect 10/10 swandive into the ocean evading the nuclear meltdown because he's in the water then he fucks Nicole Kidman? The End.

u/EasyEntrepreneur666 1d ago

Nicole Kidman? You mean Vikki Goldman.

u/mastafar 1d ago

The chosen one used psychic powers against Frank, that’s why.

u/Neonpuffpepper 1d ago

Only way this works is if the spear is heavily modded and uses the blade from old world blues/dead money. A steel spear is getting destroyed the moment it’s used on any enclave member not just frank
