I have just rolled The Fixer with:
+100% Damage against targets with full Health.
+50% Critical Damage
+50% Damage Resistance while Aiming.
Can I do a Rifleman stealth vats build at level 111?
 
Thats a decent gun, instigating fixer essentially, 100% damage is a bit misleading, it's not taking 100% of their health but it's doing 100% more damage to them (double damage).....I think I explained that well lol. This is why people use instigating on West tec runs, if you equip instigating it also doubles your grenade damage to full health enemies.

I'd install that build mod from nexus and do another build on that, that way you at least keep what you have.

Thanks BeeP, that helps a lot. Might wait for the update incase the mod breaks.

Not bad at all. Good for sneaky kills especially with the 100% damage for full health and +50% crit damage. Bolt on a perforating magazine and you'll have a proper weapon with the 2.5x sneak damage multiplier. :D

Recent switched to using an automatic Fixer as my main weapon for just running around. Events get the holy fire or cremator.
My Fixer is +50% damage (depending on caps being over 29k), 25% faster firing and 90% weight reduction. Add in the Prime automatic receiver and perforating magazine and it's a long list of effects. ;) Works quite nicely for me.

I'm guessing you use a commando build?
I have stuck a perforating mag on. Thought it would be needed.
I am thinking a stealth vats commando build. Will get the mod BeeP mentioned and have a play on nukeddragons.

Thank you guys.

Yeah. Got a stealth commando and a stealth heavy weapon build for funtimes. :D Interestingly, the holy fire and other flamers can be used nicely in stealth. The Cremator breaks stealth.

Also a build for chainsaw/power axe, another for weapon workbench, one for armour workbench.... Perk Loadout Manager is really useful to doing this.

Blimey, too many loadouts for me to handle.

Will start a commando build tonight, I think I have 26 perk cards to pick which should be enough.

As Flibster mentioned PLM is great for just easily switching loadouts, it was him who put me on to it, brilliant piece of modding but will probably be broken for a few days.

I had one issue with it where if I scrapped a card it hung my game, I have a few hundred to pick/scrap when I CBA.

Perk Loadout Manager is fantastic for managing multiple builds. You have 12 slots that you can have different builds in. All you need to do to change them in game is go to the perk screen and press a key from 1 to = for whichever of the 12 slots you want to use. With SFE installed as well, you can save any build to a slot with shift+slot number.

It's great. Seriously one of the best mods made for FO76. I would go for the version with no hud notification, otherwise it stops the normal FO76 notifications from appearing, which sucks.

Perk Loadout Manager

Adds the ability to import custom Perk Card loadouts and swap between them as needed.

Just done the dailies and spent my whole 30 remaining score points on random tat. Got to rank 194 in the end.

Going to pick up a PC tomorrow too, so will have some improvement to my gameplay when on the sofa. 3600x, 32gb ram and a 1080Ti (and Windows 11... ugh...) Big upgrade from an Alienware Alpha R1 - i7 4765T, 16gb ram and a 2gb 860m (but it's teeny....)

See you all on the flip side. :D

Good luck with the new pc. Don't forget to turn off every feature in W11. That thing sucks resources.
I managed to get mine down to 3.5gb ram usage in idle. Roll on Steam OS for PC's.
 
I’m on 11 just now, the new update seems pretty decent tbh, mind you I’ve only used it for a couple of hours.
I’ll probably download the new version of 76 tonight when I’m home from work, hopefully I get in later.

I'm going to leave my PC on incase the download hits us later via steam.
I don't mind W11, just got a lot of features I don't use and had to hunt them down. Can't even uninstall edge.
 
It should do. In the downloads section I see scheduled updates for the installed games like Pacific Drive had an update pending it's release date. Just stay logged in and out of a game. I believe my power options allow steam to download when sleeping. Another windows thing to check lol
