So... Bozar, a tremendous sniper weapon, with a wide range. "The ultimate refinement of the sniper's art. Although, somewhat finicky and prone to jamming if not kept scrupulously clean, the big weapon's accuracy more than makes up for its extra maintenance requirements." (wiki description) And here it is http://www.fo2238.fodev.net/wiki/Bozar

Now the question is... Why have I never seen this weapon this session? It's average damage output is the same as the damage of Gauss Pistol, exept that it requires a ton more AP to use, it's a two handed weapon, more  strength to handle and another type of ammo. The average damage output is exactly the same as Gauss Pistol's (unless we score a bypass criticall hit). Has anyone seen it after the wipe? Where can we get this baby? Why is it THAT rare? I've layed my hands upon more than 3 Gauss Pistols this session and not a single Bozar. I believe that it should be more common than it is now, share your thought guys.

Maybe they've just decided to scrap idea of BG sniper build.

Besides that its not really fair that BG of all things gets the ultimate sniper and sg doesnt >.>.

BG is pretty weak this era compared to SG really. both doing the same damage and bg needing more req's and being much more expensive (if it wasnt for all those vs encounters)

I am well aware of this and have occassionally stated such, and I hope it is buffed because it kinda is unbalanced, but thing is, its a BG, its not supposed to have anything for aimshotting, where as SG HEAVILY relies on aimshotting, yet BG gets the ultimate sniper, its ridiculous.

SG Bursters are very good now, p90 is far too powerful.

[Alvarez]

A Bozar is a useless rarity, stowed away in base locker.

I mean, you need a extra character to handle it! Who in the sane mind would put up BG skill with high Luck and even bring it in combat?
BG builds are bursters anyway and you don't need no Luck for rocketing your foe, only 7 Strength.

My bg got 25% crits, better crits and 220% bg.

How about other weapons?

[Johnnybravo]

Like Pulse pistol?

[Swinglinered]

How about laser smg/plasma smg- like the pistol but an SMG?
Same range and ammo type.

It would be better than the pistol in the same way SMG is better than 10mm pistol.

This would make EW more fun. Laser rifles are boring.

Just give it a ton of deterioration, and crit failures are plasma grenade explosions.

What about Super Sledge SMG?

[Johnnybravo]

jackhammer?
EDIT: laser smg would be as useful as gattling laser, enjoy wasting yer mfcs
I'd rather like to see upgraded laser rifle doing something ( extra ammo capacity there is nearly useless )

The hidden point was that as a glorified pistol it would use pistol ammo.

SEC, not MFC.

Also the whole idea was kind of a joke.
