Title: Character creation help
Post by: Phallus Erectus on November 21, 2010, 05:17:38 am
My character has, or will have, 8 perception and Fast Shot. He's going to use Big Guns and I'm wondering how high I should put Big Guns. What percentage will give me 95% hits from my max 8 perception view range; remember, I can only target the torso? Is 8 excessive? Also, if I get two Bonus Range Damage, will that make minigun bursts seriously deadly?

But I'll be able to fire a bozar twice with two action boys and 10 agility.

The Bozar is a Single Shot Sniper Rifle. You won't be able to make aimed shots with Fast Shot.

8 is too much for an unaimed BG bulid. I suggest 6 to be able to get BroF.

Do you actually have many Bozars? They are very rare in this game. I wouldn't bother making a build around one...

Yes, 2 BRD helps burster damage a lot.

So, with 10 agility, two action boys, and jet, I can fire a minigun twice, correct? Also, does Heavy Handed only reduce the critical hit tables of HtH attacks? One more, is it worth it to get Better Criticals if I am only shooting the torso?

Oh yeah, how high a percentage should I get Big Guns if I only have 6 perception and I shoot torsos?

Bonus Rate of Fire doesn't affect burst, silly goose.

Alright, I'll take BRoF, but how high should I raise Big Guns? Would it be better to take one toughness or pack rat? I ask because I don't know if I need the extra weight capacity for big guns. My strength is at 5.

to tell u the truth i have never made a bg account never liked using big guns but one time i was reading someone becuase i might have made a bg account and saw that 220 was what u need to hit at max range dont know if its true but it might be big guns are hard core weapons so u proably need hard core stats like 220 big gun skill maybe look on the search it proably has come up tons of times. :)
