However going with Arcade Gannon will grant you extra healing from all sources (always helpful) and Raul the Ghoul will ensure that you spend less time worrying about equipment maintenance. As for your humanoid companion, Boone is one of the best his incredible sniper abilities will compliment you well. Partners: Since you’ll be in melee, Rex is somewhat redundant so you’ll want Ed-E instead. When paired up with Heavy Hitter and Kamikaze you can easily get the jump on an enemy, hit them for a Sneak Attack critical and then use VATs to murder the crap out of them before they can fight back. Unlike the majority of the weapons in New Vegas, the laser pistol does not have a 'true iron sights' function.

The laser pistol is one of the weakest energy pistols but is also the most common. Travel Light and Silent Running will make getting the jump on enemies a whole lot easier. The laser pistol returns as the entry-level energy pistol in Fallout: New Vegas. The rest of the perks will grant you bonuses to damage or help you with penetrating enemy Damage Thresholds. Perks like Black Widow / Lady Killer and Cherchez la Femme / Confirmed Bachelor as well as Bloody Mess and Living Anatomy will get you up a very nice damage bonus against all humanoids. Most of the Perks we’re taking are giving us damage bonuses against particular types of enemies: Hunter and Entomologist will grant you damage bonuses on animals, notably against Geckos and Cazadors. With this build we’re doing our best to do as much damage to enemies as quickly as possible. When fighting other melee opponents be sure to use VATs since those attacks are unblockable and be sure to block often. Aim for enemy limbs or their head when slicing away so as to hamper their ability to fight back. Since VATs only allows you to target the enemy in general you’ll need to do things manually. You’re going to need to use strong weapons, target enemies vital points and then slice away at them.

Playing this character can be somewhat difficult if you’re not good at the game. The hard part to a melee character is that you must wear light armor if you wish to close in on enemies fast enough that their guns won’t tear you to shreds but when forced into a heads up battle against multiple foes with guns light armor won’t help you too much. Stats By default the PDW deals 4 damage per shot, however it completely pierces all DT, and it can potentially hit up to 60 times a second, but it drains Electron Charge Packs rather rapidly at a rate of around 20-30 a second. Many of the enemies are stronger and more dangerous in melee than you are, so it’s a risk every time you get near them also, Deathclaws. The Laser PDW can be found in the Observation Deck of HELIOS One, in the tech pod next to PYTHON. A melee character is definitely a heck of a challenge in the Fallout games.
