Fallout 3 Advanced Weapon Guide 2/2

[mashifier999]

Ive heard of a gun called the firelance any 1 know about it

[reheheeeally]

@mashifier999 Random as hell finding it - literally. It drops down in the wasteland along with 24 alien power cells when a random encounter point creates an exploding flying saucer in the sky. All you see is the explosion, which you might be lucky enough to catch. Check the Fallout Wiki on wikia.

[mashifier999]

@reheheeeally cheers i found it today near a place called the bethesda ruins which aparently is the place where the chance of it falling if 20% more

[chimburn]

What are the best guns in your opinions (no big guns)

[reheheeeally]

@chimburn The more powerful guns are hampered by ammo availability, except for these:

Terrible Shotgun (short-range, beheads ANYTHING)

Ol' Painless (excellent at lower levels and/or when sniping)

Xuanlong Assault Rifle (short to med-range, copes with most things)

Sydney's Ultra 10mm SMG (buzzsaws through anything, but EATS ammo. Good panic weapon)

Lincoln's Repeater (long-range; replaces Ol' at high levels, despite rarity of ammo)

[TheNotWildWaffle]

Dude u deserve way more veiws than this! this was so clear and helpfull, it was great! Job well done, and thank you :)

[crocket1338]

What is the quest for the MIRV again?

[OblivionZealot]

It feels like the Mirv is a waste, the normal Fatman is over kill, and 8 nukes? Such a waste...

[Madmike3579]

for the experimental mirv, you can get all of the transcripts or just 2,3,4, and 5 to open the door, because if you do, which i did, you'll hear that each of them has a different number for the passcode of the terminal. JUST SAYING!!!!!

[Clayman60x]

i want to have your voices baby

[ccanime36]

ok, for the Keller Family holotapes, things, i went in Nation guard depot, I did find a door, but i can't axes it, so, how the heck do I open the door. is it possible you could make a video,getting in there?

[Linkthe1st]

@ccanime36

3:10

Please listen closely

[ccanime36]

@Linkthe1st ok but how did you open the training wing door? All I saw was you going out the door, turning around, then going back in ?

[Linkthe1st]

@ccanime36

That is the sealed door to the armoury you are trying to open. Search for the door labelled "training wing", which leads to the "office" which then exits to the location at 3:00. It is on this platform you will find the lever that opens the sealed armoury door.

If you don't understand at this point i can't help you.

[123tomandadrian]

Why the fuck would you want to fire 8 mini nukes its just a waste.

[hellified666]

Sydney's 10mm SMG

[Whocares792]

Dawm Deatthclaws...

[PivotCommando]

When you mentioned the shack near rockbreackers last gas, I expected you to also mention the Victory Rifle, which can be obtained there.

[TheMineMach]

6:49 your character is reaching out for the alien blaster, poor guy

[tnylry]

another question is is the gatling laser affected by big guns or energy weapons skills or is a mix of the both of them

[pearlsickle]

@tnylry big guns

[tnylry]

Whats the best unarmed and melee weapons in the game im guessing the deathclaw gaunlet is the best unarmed im not sure about melee

[pearlsickle]

@tnylry the shocksword from op acrage dlc



[generalterr]

@tnylry super sledge

[mrkader14]

I wanna help u on theas vids!

[Linkthe1st]

@mrkader14

if you don't like working in a text editor for three hours, cross referencing facts for two, and then not having any fun being forced to capture specific footage in the game for another two; then you can help.

Making these guides isn't all sugar n' rainbows. You have to have a special type of passion to do this work.

[CreeperSlayer13]

@Linkthe1st pwned

[xUKxPenguinx]

What's the gun at 1:48?

[mrnoobeh]

@xUKxPenguinx 10mm smg

[dayham09]

I GOT THE FIRELANCE LAST NOGHT YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYZ

[Aranx2o]

Lol me and my brother found these without help. Now we feel pro!

[Trickeymuppet]

hey whats better? fawkes' gatling lazer or vengeance?

[CoastGuardKid1]

@Trickeymuppet You should use Fawkes but use Vengenace as your weapon.

[AustinKluenker]

I got the A3-21's Plasma Rifle at level 3 and xuanlong's Assualt Rifle at level 5 thanks to you :D

[xavifernet]

Thanks for posting. Helped me find the last weapon I wanted to add to my collection.

[TobyShock]

do you also get the Plasma Rifle if you report to zimmer?

[WarriorOfOrigins]

@TobyShock In a word no.

[thepowerofempire]

@Linkthe1st

about your advanced weapons guide for fallout when i accept the A#21 plasma rifle quest with zimmer then i go to doctor preston and there isnt any dialogue options about the android...

[TheGameingGuys]

Why did u mention the a3-21s plasma rifle again

[BikerPanda]

@TheGameingGuys cause it is awesome.

[thenucularmelons2]

this guy has eared +1 subs

[lorence05]

why didnt you mention the Sydney's 10mm "Ultra" SMG in your small guns guild?

[pacguy96]

the first time i went to find the alien blaster i triggered the mother ship zeta dlc and l stared to flip out but then i came back from it with better weps more ammo for the weps and was happy so its not all bad to activate the dlc

[masterlink424]

hey just thought you should know that i was doing the reilly's rangers quest and the super mutants killed brick and he was holding a weapon called the eugene which is a minigun that does almost double damage i dont know if you showed this yet but i didnt see it so i thought i would mention it

[shamalc7]

the BASE game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

[musicfreak1000000000]

Getting vengance acctually isnt that hard if you have the dart gun to attomatically cypil there legs and the railway rifle to kill then or something stronger and a decent ammount of ammoe for then plus allot stimpacks

[musicfreak1000000000]

Getting vengance acctually isnt that hard if you have the dart gun and the railway rifle and a decent ammount of ammoe for then

[JzapreffProductions]

Lol i grab a bunch of random hollowtapes not in your order and still got a new man .... a free man or whatever

[pianomaster360]

What happend to Wazer Rifle? Or is it just too weak?

[mercenarie95]

what about wepons like baseball bats and unarmed wepons?

[mercenarie95]

ya for the mirv you can just go to the depot and go to the door out side of the bunker and go to 3rd person veiw and trun till you see actvie buttion and there you go

[276Israel]

wait I got A man... A NEW man by getting it in holmes home by his bed please reply

[cobraninja97]

Harkness should of been voiced by john barrowman that would of been cool

[thenucularmelons2]

man vengece seams imposalble to get...

experimental i will get at level 8 thank you for every thing!

[MrU6z]

@thenucularmelons2 actually, its not all that hard, first aquire The Terrible Shotgun (tut for it in the first half of these vids) and make sure you have 60 or so stimpaks to spare, last step is optional but you can get Fawkes

[pianomaster360]

@thenucularmelons2 I got vengence, it took me 2 days to get my self outa the santuary...

[thenucularmelons2]

this is awsome thanks

[thenucularmelons2]

thank you now i can get it while a level 2! thank you sooo much

[thenucularmelons2]

ok i will try agein thank you for responding so quickly you earned a sub :)

[Linkthe1st]

@thenucularmelons2

Watch the video again, Pinkerton never gives you any weapons.

[SteelerFan7Films101]

The first time i tackled the Vengance challenge I got the weapon that wasnt the problem. My problem was getting out of the place. It litteraly took me at least 1 hour and 30 mins to backtrack and boy was it worth it.

[MAKKEBAKKE]

Obtaining Vengeance is a real adventure that (if you're a high level) you should really do, i did it with the special plasma rifle and a dart gun, it's a real experience to try and stay quiet while there's huge irradiated monster around you everywhere...

[mikerchrd780]

when i saw deathclaw sanctuary i thought it was deathclaw cemetary.i was lv 3. biggest midtake of my LIFE.

[Doomfairy1]

WERES THE FIRELANCE!

[Linkthe1st]

@Doomfairy1

ENTIRELY RANDOM!

"Awesome gun here guys, but guess what! I literally can't tell you where to find it!"

That would just make people mad.

[VelvetxRevolverx]

@Doomfairy1 What is the Firelance?

[Doomfairy1]

@VelvetxRevolverx its a random occurance weapon when a yellow light comes and explodes,it drops the firelance and alien powercells.the firelance is a alien blaster but lights what it hits on fire also the projectile it shoots go`s were it shoots and is not that accurate in VATS

[addy975]

@Doomfairy1 LOL i picked it up like in level 2 to 4 in this game i haven't gone to GNR building in that time

[MultiBabyninja]

@Doomfairy1 wheres the i agree button!!! :(

[Mmfcljuggalos420]

Dude ur guides are so helpful excellent job. Perfect vids

[RUSH2KLUTCH]

isn't the a3-21 plasma rifle in the begginers weapon guide

[CpsLock3]

since linkthe1st only covers basic knowlege of the scenarios that he presents I will take liberty on his behalf *and keep him from wasting his time making videos pointing this out* I'll Start with the alien blaster. If you have the dlc you need to have Dogmeat with you. You can find him in the scrapyard location and use him to find weapons and ammo. Use him to pick up the ammo and gun from a distance and you can reap the reward. Thank you for listening.

[Demon27248]

What about Jack (The Ripper) in Deathclaw Sanctuary. Are you not doing melee weapons?

[captanprice1]

what about eugene

[rsv2pyroskitllez1]

Sorry, scripts not tapes

[rsv2pyroskitllez1]

Two things: I found a wep named "jack" in the deathclaw sanctuary, idk if you know about that.. And for the mini nuke wep that first door u go in on the vid, isn't open and I have all the tapes... Although I havn't started the quest, do I need to? If so where would I start it?

[IHDR3P3ER]

when i went into deathclaw sanctury there were only 3 deathclaws

[pottsykp123]

I happened to notice you forgot about the two unique sniper rifles, the Victory Rifle in the Sniper Shack (Very Hard locked case) and the Reservists Rifle on the Drifter at Dickerson Tabernacle Chaple...The Victory Rifle especially is a must for a small guns user from mid-late game (More so if you use Broken Steel / GoTY)

[Linkthe1st]

@pottsykp123

I did not forget any weapon, the reservist's riffle was covered in my video "beginner's weapon guide".

As for the Victory riffle, I pointedly excluded it from my list because all of it's stats are sorely inferior to the reservist's riffle (and standard sniper riffle), with it's only pro being a unique knockdown effect on critical.

[pottsykp123]

@Linkthe1st

Fair pont. I suppose it is all about personal preference and playing style. Anyway, keep up the good work mate.

[legonazizombiefan]

@Linkthe1st question can you do us a help through on you gotta shoot them in the head

[Coolman163]

for the deathclaw sanctuary, with the ancorage 9 DLC get stealth armor is easy

[portxer]

there are 5 keller transcripts



[Linkthe1st]

@KewkehMonstuh

I did not "fuck up", while there are five transcripts you only need the four I detail here to open the bunker.

[portxer]

@KewkehMonstuh yeah orcidea has videos for all five,and yes you require all five to get in

[bioleech]

@portxer yeh but the first transcript just provides a backstory, and its not necessary for access to the national guard depot

[Linkthe1st]

@portxer

Five transcripts but only four are needed to get into the bunker.

[Turtleman18S]

He was right by the victory rifle

[golbezchaoslord]

anyone know what i should bring to the deathclaw sanctuary besides the dart gun?

i got all the small arm advance weapons.

[helosb]

@golbezchaoslord make a save and go test out different weapons on them to see which does the most dmg. then load your real save and go for it.

[bioleech]

@golbezchaoslord the alien blaster will kick the ass of any deathclaws you find, but if uve wasted all the ammo id probably use bottlecap mines. also, if u have mothership zeta just have dogmeat fetch it for you

[brad159357]

@bioleech My Dogmeat died. T^T

[bioleech]

@brad159357 ): that sucks, but theres the puppies perk from broken steel that allows you to get a puppy version of dogmeat (that continue spawning after the previous one died)

[danam123productions]

Hey remember that sniper shack well you missed a gun in the locker the vitory rifle a sniper rifle just a heads up you need 100 lockpick for it

[Theicestorm10]

i have every wepon youve said in the advanced and the death claw sanctuary is not hard if u have fawkes and minigun

[99deadliestwarrior]

so u still can get the alien blaster, even without mothership zeta?

[Cause2Just]

@99deadliestwarrior Yep. Just go to the crash site and it will be there. Also, you can get more ammo for it on a very rare- On time- mini encounter, if your Luck is high enough, when a random explosion overhead drops and litters the surrounding area with more ammo, as well as another unique alien weapon titled " Firelance". Use Dogmeat if you have him to scavenge the area for the weapon and all the ammo, Beacuse it is a pain in the ass to get it yourself.

[MassSpazGaming]

@99deadliestwarrior yes its on the floor

[ARTICWARFARE2200]

I've found nearly every special weapon in the game, awesomeness.

[Kenpokid4]

I actually got Vengeance on accident... Heh ^_^'

[W87Jes]

2 people went to the end of the sanctuary unprepared because they thought it was a cakewalk

[11125Hunter]

hey linkthe1st i would get a t-51b armor and fawkes before entering the deathclaw sanctuary right???

[ARTICWARFARE2200]

@11125Hunter

That will be helpful.

[hokage1997]

wait i watch all of your weapon packs and you did not cover jack the ripper

[Qman358]

I noticed how you said the deathclaw sanctuary was one of THE most dangerous places in the game....

Whats the most dangerous?

[ARTICWARFARE2200]

@Qman358

Fort Constantine isn't far behind the Deathclaw Sanctuary in danger level. The front entry to Vault 87 can kill you by just going up to it, radiation levels go up to the 2000s (maybe more!). I would go with the front entry to Vault 87, because all you really need to survive is the Alien Blaster or similar extremely powerful weapon.

[Qman358]

@ARTICWARFARE2200 vault 87 is impossible to get into anyways via front entry, the door does not even work, i know because of the fallout wiki.

[ARTICWARFARE2200]

@Qman358

I know, I saw a video on some guy trying to get into Vault 87 that way, and used console commands to be invincible, and the radiation levels were in the thousands (multiple thousands), and all that for a door that says [inaccessible].

[peepsthekilla23]

What's the best melee/unarmed weapon of the game?

[ARTICWARFARE2200]

@peepsthekilla23 Some of the best are: Deathclaw Gauntlet Shishkebab Auto Axe ( The Pitt only!) The Mauler (The Pitt only!) The Man Opener (The Pitt only!) Highwayman's Friend ( I like this one personally) *Plunkett's Valid Points (!I've never got to test it so try for yourself!) Fisto! The Shocker There are some good melee/ unarmed weapons to choose from. P.S. If you own the PC version, you can make your own weapons from the G.E.C.K. kit off the internet.

[ps3man1998]

Wait i thought the power cells that you get for the alien blaster could be restocked if you go back? Is that true?

[Linkthe1st]

@ps3man1998

No, once you're out of blaster ammo you're out. there is no location in any fallout 3 content that allows blaster ammo to respawn.

[halo3fien]

@Linkthe1st on the topic of the alien blaster ammo there is a random encounter whichs grants you the firelance which also provides ammo, additionally where the fort (cant remember the name) where you trade in weapons there is an overturned truck with power cells in it ( and mthership zeta has some limited ammo on it

[Qman358]

@Linkthe1st There is one way..... If you're lucky enough and you find the firelance (its a random event), it will be dropped with some power cells.

[avatarhalo3]

@Linkthe1st well now in mothership ztea in the wepon lab u can get more ammo

[ARTICWARFARE2200]

@Linkthe1st

There are certain places in Mothership Zeta and Broken Steel where you can get more ammo for the Alien Blaster, and there is even another Alien Blaster in Broken Steel, but it's in moderate condition and the amount of ammo in each DLC varies. While I think Broken Steel and certain spots in the wasteland (don't quote me on this, it's been a while since I've read it) are linked to your luck and some perks, but you have to find the ammo in Mothership Zeta.I've found some ammo in both.

[Shadow0fAFailur3]

@Linkthe1st You can get more alien ammo during the random occasion firelance

[MrMetsavaht]

@Linkthe1st actually i found some alien cells in a radiate part that wasen't near the crash site , but that could have been from the Firelance random encounter.

[joshpeace23]

You can use dog meat to get the blaster without trigering the mothership mission

[Killingspree535]

oh and ty for the tip at the end ;) i have'em all!GOT TO GET'EM ALL, SUPER POWER WEAPONS!

[Killingspree535]

OMFG TY MAN IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE MIRV FOR YEARS, REALLY!

[hydrotag]

Hey anybody notice that doctor preston @ 4:22 resembles Fantastic from fallout new vegas in helios 1

[hydrotag]

Fallout New Vegas is been out for 3 monthes already and there is still hidden content on fallout 3. thats massive

[link7975]

deathclaw sanctuary or as i call it old olney

[Linkthe1st]

@link7975

The death claw sanctuary and Old Olney are two different places.

[link7975]

@Linkthe1st No i meant that in old olney there is alot of deathclaws

[thenick20078]

@Linkthe1st Did you Know Alien Blaster has a Unique Weapon....."Captain's Side Arm"In Mothership Zeta optianable after slaughtering the captain.Its basically a alien shotgun because it fires multiple beams

[MrTiredCooks1]

wait what about named weapons like the Wazer Wifle

[saquido1141]

w8 wat if u huv da game of da year edition i wont be able 2 get da alien pistol?

[Sachems49]

@saquido1141 ur writing is so retarded im not even goin to answer it

[saquido1141]

@Sachems49 i didnt even ask u dumb ass...

[Sammy4549]

@saquido1141

Nope, not until you clear the Mothership Zeta content.

[srgtArbs]

When I Went to Old Olney I found alien blaster ammo wheres a tesla coil is.

[Leon9124]

and what about Col.Autumn's laser pistol ? its fully automatic and its has 50 dm but i never saw it on youtube anyone talking about it ... :/ true its in the atrium and u can't go out but if u got any ways to go out pls tell me

[BikerPanda]

i love how you can answer dr. zimmer "Do you got a problem the way i look?" :)

[flannelman94]

You don't have to finish mothership zeta (if you have it) to get the alien blaster. You can use dogmeat to fetch it for you... But getting the ammo takes a looong time this way. Anyway, don't the aliens take the crashed ship up into the mothership at some point?

[shamalc7]

wat about the firelance??? & are u gonna do any fallout new vegas guides???

[allan9654]

after watched your guide, i thinki only played about 30% of the fallout 3's all content.

[stovemasta]

Dart Gun makes acquiring Vengeance a breeze.

[ChARLi3SC3NEFtW]

1. I only watch for the intros :)

2. Your voice is orgasmic

3. Guides are great XD

[connhilun]

I collect all 4 TAPE for the MIRV but where is the door go down stair ?? DOes it requires Lock pick skill or SCI skill to open??

[VideoGamerize]

@connhilun you have to find switch

[connhilun]

@VideoGamerize OH thanks, I have THe MIRV now, but DOnt worry about that, it 's NOV /2010 we gonna see somes MUSHROOM cloud like MIRV SHOT in our real world... REMEMBER VANGA!

[VideoGamerize]

@connhilun ehh what?

[2thermal]

what about the wassle wifle?

[ubertomadachi]

it's not 8x the power, depressingly, ALL the M.I.R.V. does waste 7 more mini nukes just to look cool, but it does the same damage as an ordinary fat man. Do not Use!

[DanishSourceSDKTuts]

Can you still do get the A3-21, if your only have done the first point of the quest?

[NoBody1399]

Is there no way of getting any alien blaster ammo even with mothership zeta? I undderstand that now that Fallout NV is out not many people care about 3 so much anymore but before I spend $ on NV I wanna play through 3 again

[Legacy9x]

If I have the normal fallout, without any add ons, can I purchase the Game of the year edition and continue my game just with the added content? Or would I have to start a new game save?

[rike1175]

@Legacy9x the dlc is on a second disk so yes

[Legacy9x]

@rike1175 Thank You rike, appreciate the responce.

[SUICIDEBYFORCE]

it didnt give me the a31 plasma rifle yet dun everything right why?

[bioleech]

FYI if u have GOTY just have dogmeat fetch it

[1234568631]

thank you so much for your weapon guides i got all the weapons in advanced part 1, 2 and beginners weapon guides.

[SPARTAN12able]

you can head in the deathclaw santuary if you have fawkes as a companion.(must have good karma).

[zekesmith]

What would be the recommended level to try to get the guns mentioned in Part 1 and Part 2?

[avj317]

btw, you can get more Alien Blaster Ammo from Fort Independence. There's like 90 more blaster ammo there.

[mynameisdarthtater]

That's interesting. I found Keller family tape 1 out in the wasteland. If you find the MDPL-13 power station (I'm pretty sure that's the one, it's near fort bannister) and follow the power lines, you'll pass a little town where the residents are all ghouls. They attack you on site, so kick some ass or leave. Eventually, you'll find a few ghouls underneath one of the things that holds up the lines. Kick their ass and the Keller tape 1 is on the bookshelf.

[TheSoviteAssassin]

a way to get the Alien Blaster without having to do the mothership zeta DLC, is to go find dogmeat in scrapyard and get near the spacecraft without triggering it, then tell dogmeat to find you a weapon. then do the same thing for the ammo.

[TheLmfaodyl]

I tried to challenge myself my going into the sanctuary with only a 10mm Pistol but I died in around 30 seconds lol

[Ryanr75rc]

@spritewon the firelance is drop randomy on the wasteland it's hard to find

[r3idscape]

in the sniper shack there is an advanced sniper rifle called victory a must have for snipers

[r3idscape]

my second favorite intro

[spritewon]

what about the firelance u didnt even mention it

[AcrylicMockingbird]

you can use dogmeat to get the alien blaster cant you??

[TLCTag]

i dont mean to point it out but, didn't you do a3-21's plasma rifle for the beginners guide?

[supersupermario765]

This is one of the reasons i LOVE fallout 3, there are souped up weapons that are the PURE DEFINITION of optional. The fact that you get no side quests, no talk of it from people, not a SINGLE clue that they EVEN EXIST makes a feeling of discovery in finding the weapons yourself. If that isnt something that represents what would happen in real life, then i dont know what is and i cant wait for fallout new vegas, because this experiance and feeling happens all over again :D

[MATYRKER]

wow, you did a awesome job making these videos... get ready for new vegas

[Altter221]

Just trow grenades so the Alien Blaster lands near enough to grab
