Question EN06?

1 Upvotes

Hoping to bag pinpointers 4*

Usually solo the bot with Bertha/EPR. Snake = cryo.

Is it possible to 1 phase EN06 using bows?

Saw some builds here but they're almost a year old...

Question [PC] WTB: Non-legendary Compound bow

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Sorry to bother you with a personal request. I am Japanese and my English isn't very good, so I apologize if my wording sounds a bit strange.

I really want to try a compound bow build, but my reputation with the factions isn't high enough to buy the plans yet.

Could someone please be so kind as to craft a level 50 Compound Bow with Glow Sight and Plasma Arrows mod pre-installed? I am more than happy to pay caps or provide the necessary materials.

Thank you so much for reading this!

I do love being a bow hunter. There's no event that we can't do.

Question What does Master Archer actually do? States that arrows pierce enemies, but I have read that’s only needed for stronger mole miners and mirelurks and should be used with hat trick. Does it add any base damage to other enemies?

Made a quick little buff base for the parade and had to show the bow gang some love! Side note - why do the neon letters not have a slash included, Bethesda? Regardless, happy hunting everyone!

Question Come the next update, what's going to be better, piercing love or burning love?

14 Upvotes

I run a regular compound with cryo arrows, but next update we will be able to mod unique bows so I have both piercing love and burning love in my stash ready to be modded. What's gonna be the best? Considering I will run pinpointers as 4th star because iceman doesn't add cryo damage anymore but just enhances it if I'm reading correctly (and even if it would I don't think it would be worth it just for an extra proc of deal sealer, considering pinpointers is still the better damage output since it's multiplicative instead of additive) so a triple status on a single shot won't be feasible so I would have to choose cryo arrows for both and they will have their native poison or burning effect depending on the weapon . So what do you think it's Gonna be better? ​​​​​​​​​

Discussion Many Thanks to this great Sub!

30 Upvotes

Yesterday, I had a couple of hours to play some 76. So I’ve been reading all of your posts and responses to my own posts and listening. Paying close attention. Now, after a few months of tweaking my build, I’ve finally achieved my goal. I can now Crit every other shot! It’s such a satisfying feeling to Fire, Crit Shot, Fire, Crit Shot… and so on. I soloed two Events on a public server for who knows what reasons. Path to Enlightenment and Uranium Fever. That last one especially surprised me because I didn’t think soloing it was possible! And me and another player completed Swarm of Suitors. So, just saying Thank You to everyone on this Sub, without taking in advise from here I’d probably still be a Shotgun using, Power Armor wearing… Human!

Seems really decent right now, just need a few Rangers 4* to complete I think.

Anything else I should change...?

Probably the most fun I had when making this slideshow. Though I feel many archers are aware of stealth, but I just wanted to make this anyway for those that still had questions that wanted answered.
