The Fatman is a weapon that has appeared in severalFalloutgames. Being able to launch a small nuclear bomb from one’s shoulder is a good way to get out of sticky situations. However, the ammo is very costly, and the weapon tends to blow up the user alongside the intended target.
Missile Launchers are a cheaper alternative to the Fatman. The ammo is more plentiful, and it is a very fun weapon to use. There are a couple ofunique missile launchersthat are worth picking up:
Lucky players can also find legendary Missile Launchers with special effects that make them even more powerful.

The humbleBaseball Bat is a fun weapon to use. While standard bats don’t do much damage, there are a couple of special ones that are good at dealing with enemies.
With the right build, mods, and effects, Baseball Bats can be deadly. This is especially true for the 2076 World Series Baseball Bat that can be obtained from the quest “Find The Treasures Of Jamaica Plain.” This particular bat gives players a 6% chance to send enemies flying on each hit. This can cause absolute mayhem and is definitely worth giving a try.

Pipe weapons can be found pretty much everywhere inFallout 4.Lots of players tend to just scrap or sell all of the Pipe weapons they come across. But, this is a mistake.Pipe Guns can actually be very useful weapons.
There are lots of things that make Pipe Guns a viable weapon choice. They are cheap to mod, there are lots of options for modding, ammo is cheap, and when used correctly, a Pipe Gun can be deadly. If the player is lucky enough to come across a two-shot or an explosive Pipe Gun, then they can use it to take down pretty much every enemy in the game.

Players often overlook the .44 Pistol due to its low rate of fire and slow reload speed. But it is actually a great weapon.These pistols can do enormous amounts of damage to enemies.With the right know-how, it is possible to have a Revolver that does several hundred points of damage per shot.
This weapon can one-shot lots of enemies, making it a great weapon to have on hand while exploring the Commonwealth. Also, with the Advanced Receiver mod, players can mitigate some of the negatives and speed up their fire rate and reload speed.

Players come across the Laser Musket very early on in the main story. There is one lying just outside the Museum of Freedom in Concord. Upon using it, most players will be underwhelmed. However, this weapon can be a very powerful and fun weapon to use.
If the player stumbles across a Laser Musket with the never-ending effect, then they can just keep shooting. Laser Muskets also have lots of modding options. The mods allow players to turn the standard Laser Musket into just about any type of weapon. It can be used as a sniper, a shotgun, and even a Gatling Gun. The possibilities with a Laser Musket are almost endless.

Gamma Guns are well-known for their ability to inflict a lot of radiation damage on enemies. But what a lot of players don’t know is thatthisweapon can be modifiedto cause explosive damage. The combination of radiation damage and explosive damage makes the Gamma Gun an unstoppable machine.
The best version of this weapon can be obtained from the quest “The Secret of Cabot House.” Without giving too much away, players will need to side with Jack Cabot at the end of this questline, and they will receive Lorenzo’s Artifact Gun.
This weapon can obliterate most types of enemies in the game. The only real downside is that the ammo can be fairly difficult to come by. However, considering how powerful the Gamma Gun can be, it’s understandable that the ammo isn’t particularly plentiful.
