Unique Laser Rifle.
- It is almost twice as powerful than a normal laser rifle and the unique Wazer Wifle. It lacks the precision of a standard laser rifle, making it much less effective for long-range attacks, but close sneak attack critical hits outside of V.A.T.S. are exceptionally devastating.
-It fires multiple lasers at a time while only using one unit of ammunition, a property also used by Protectron's Gaze. The best way to describe it is as a Laser Combat Shotgun.
- The Metal Blaster cannot be used to repair Laser Rifles or the Wazer Wifle, but the aforementioned weapons are used to repair this weapon.
- The Metal Blaster's laser beams will not ignite flammable gasses like the other energy weapons. Unfortunately this does not mean that it is safe to fire in a pocket of flammable gasses. While the beams themselves will not ignite the gas (unlike the other beam weapons), the actual firing of the Metal Blaster while immersed in gas WILL ignite it.
- Like Protectron's Gaze, each beam has an individual chance to cause a critical hit outside VATS. This makes this weapon extremely efficient in real time combat.
- Sneak attack criticals are truly monstrous. Each beam does 27 damage on a critical, upped to 40.5 with better criticals in addition to the base non-critical damage of 55, for a potential 839 damage if all beams hit.
- It may be important to note that when fired in V.A.T.S. the Metal Blaster's spread is drastically increased, whereas outside of V.A.T.S., the spread is tight enough to use the Metal Blaster at mid to long range. This is important to remember when using the weapon. In addendum, zooming in with the weapon outside of V.A.T.S. is relatively useless, and offers no real accuracy benefits.

  • Anyhow I found out how you managed to get a shit loads of ammo, without any use of mods or command console...you just went to the ammo mill right after you completed the pit, then decided to used recycled ammunition just to make .44 magnum and then you started playing Point Lookout.

    Watch my video "Fo3 / New Vegas Unlimited Caps & Ammo".

  • Do you think this weapon is better than plasma rifle, cause I find it easier to use laser weapons as it hits opponents instantly

  • @razorblade557 Especially if you have broken steel! Then you can get more perks after that one!

  • @mosphar Laser rifles dont take up a lot of AP you can get like four shots without the action boy perk and five with the action boy perk, thts why i like em over plasma guns (even though plasma rifles are high in damage!)
