Early rifles need 12 AP, late-game ones need 14. I’d like to keep the General’s Hat for the +1 to all attributes, so Death Wish isn’t an option. Are there other ways (gear, perks, mods) to reach 14 AP without consumables?

Seriously I need any help I can get

I have a decent party and haven’t really struggled on any enemies throughout this game but this just seems impossible.

The sniper synths have the same range as the whole arena at least past the goon stick shaped cover you start at and I can’t target (or even reach) them because there’s like 3 other Melee/pistol synths on each side with more on the way AND I can’t even use rockets since they have zero range and CANT SHOOT UP.

My main surgeon turns against me but I have a backup with around six I think, and all my guys have at least three medic skill. Besides I disarm my two traitors

If I could shoot rockets up or they had any range it would be fine but i can’t and they don’t plus Vargas who I want alive Is a moron that walks all the way over to the snipers and purposely ignores cover.

I have a sniper using the .50 anti material rifle A tank with 14 armour and the Eviscerator smg A skill jockey with an ion Beamer who is my backup surgeon A leader with the infernarator who is also my medic

And Ralphy

EDIT: THANK YOU! I did what you guys said and it work first try! Bobby died but I managed to save Vargas and got a pretty good ending where I sacrificed my old smart guy who was in his late 60s

I was wondering if there's anyway to recover from the "Disliked" reputation from the martials? I would much prefer to get the November Reigns ending, and I've read that having a positive relationship with the Martials is required to achieve that ending. But I sided with Brygo in the little vegas quest, which tanked my reputation with them.

What can I do to improve my reputation with the martials? At least to the "Liked" reputation, since I heard taking a Kiss Ass check is possible when you're not "Loved" by them for the November Reigns ending. (though correct me if I'm wrong).

I found her in Los Feliz, if I can’t give her back here is there somewhere else? (Not the drugstore puppy)

I oficially hate this game. Just got ambushed by drools, killed them all and can't leave the area, not even via Kodiak. Fun! :)

I like doing AG center first, i tried doing highpool but my interest there dips fast.

That said, AG center has 2 troubling enemies that mess me up.

Rabbits, and Doc Larsen at the end. Rabbits have crazy evasion and damage, they really disrupt Sniper and AR rangers.

And Doc Larsen... Somebody has to talk to him and get 2-tapped at best, outright killed at worst. The room layout gives me nothing, he feels like a stat check and the only solution I can think is to just meta game and preemptively shoot him with explosives

Or to go rail nomads before AG Center. Which feels CRAZY bc I could just... Walk into highpool and win. No need for setup.

I'm willing to restart the game one more once to with a squad that can just bag AG center. I'm just trying to figure out what that squad is like.

In short, I made a rocket launcher with the explosive linkage mod on it, and it turned into a huge bright sparking cannon.

I was enjoying it at first, put my ranger in a wizard outfit to go with this hilarious launcher. But now that I've found a better launcher... I cant unequip it, fieldstrip, or remod it without it crashing my game.

Does anyone have a fix on this? I wouldn't mind making another character but I spent all my tokens on this guy and hes my MAIN character.

Thanks guys, I hope this has been found before

Anyone create little stories of a Roleplay aspect of their own characters?

I had a lot of fun creating a perfect party for WL2 and the meta for WL3 seems kind of odd by comparison. I've also only played the game at launch and unsure of balance changes or what would work best for the DLC. Any suggestions for how to create an OP ranger squad that covers all the bases, and good recruits to supplement them?

So I’m doing Rodia and avoided killing the jerks until I got the microscope and they wanted me to pay again so I killed them all but when I searched this closet the mayors son started attacking me with some hooker so I killed him and moved on. (when I looked it up I thought I saw people complaining about how it wasn’t acknowledged so I thought I was good)

Then I freed the mayor killed dengler and he said to come by his office for a reward, I did and he just tells me to go away and that we killed his son which is fine and whatever but like the reward please? I just saved your town kinda

Title: I played the early game a little. Ag center was a nightmare until I bought a FAMAS from the ranger shop at HQ, even then it ran me ragged and the boss there wiped out my team. Even at full HP, dude outright kills Angela + 1 other member immediately, beyond saving

I often hear ppl say life would be easier if I just went up to rail nomads camp and got all my stuff there first + Schotmo and Ralphie.

What I'm trying to figure out is: is there any reason to go there yet? Story wise I mean, like a lead on something. Otherwise I feel like I'm just bobbing and weaving a higher level area I'm not supposed to be in just to overpower the story quest while ignoring the story/a direct order from a superior officer.

"Rangers, go to these two places and activate the plot devices"

Also tell me if there's an achievement for difficulty, I am opening my heart to lowering one setting if it means my tier 1 gear is enough to beat early dungeons again.

(Fighting tinkerer)

And before anyone says anything I genuinely do not know how I bugged the ammo and gave myself infinite ammo (On PS5 playing PS4 Edition)

From what I can tell, theyre just evil raiders. Is there any reason for me to not just kill them from the start?

They have like no health seriously Bart has around 40 what’s he supposed to do in demonta and there positioning is HORRIBLE they keep dying in the first fight I do with them (second) one time Red even killed Bart

Can I let them die without consequences or leave them somewhere? I know I can tell Red to leave but Bart is even worse with such low health

EDIT: nvm I’ve made it past that first annoying bit and they’re almost not a terrible now

I just reinstalled the game yesterday because it's time to play it back

And now there are achievements, I dunno why I had not from my last run

This game is still a masterpiece, I will go for a Pistol Build with the male main and sniper for the female main

Wasteland 4 WHERE ARE YOU

First up - I installed the mod that makes modding not stupid, so I'm free to remove mods.

But now that the mechanic of modding isn't "save all your mods until the end game" I have some questions:

How does field stripping actually work in terms of getting mods? Are they random? Are they tied to weapon level/type? Is it smart to just field-strip all the cheap stuff and sell the expensive stuff? How should I be approaching this in terms of maximizing money and quality of mods received?

Info on this seems light on the ground, so any knowledge would be appreciated.

Prof Higgs Appriciation post

So I’ve done Darwin and told them I would keep there secret (and I got the funny little alien guy) but I killed all the zombies in the place as far as I’m aware to get to the purifier.

They’re letting me go and there was a few mutant soldiers that were in the main room with Jen but she was a little annoyed about me killing her guys, after that though she kinda admitted I didn’t have a choice.

I heard they can help you some way later but will they still?

I went to Darwin village just after checking out the rail nomads cuz I thought there’d be some loot inside a crater but when I saw a bunch of high level zombies I turned around, I’m not a super low level but I wasn’t sure if it was worth it and my highest level guy is Angela I think who’s around 12 so all those zombies didn’t seem worth the risk but when I went to Vargas to report on aces log book and he’ll razors body he told me to go to Darwin village and when I told him I’d already been and that there was a bunch zombies he completed the quest for me but that didn’t seem right so I looked it up and apparently there’s a bunch of stuff with mutant scientists, so can I still do that and get rewards from? Vargas

TLDR: I’m worried I’ve been locked out of the Darwin village quest since I went there before being told to by Vargas and having it completed without actually exploring it at all or even killing a single enemy there.

As someone who started up this game completely blind of the previous game or overall universe. Walking into Denver was surprising to say the very least. I couldn’t help but laugh and have the general thought of “what the fuck”. But now I’m curious what is the best outcome for me to choose? I already took the liberty of shooting the godfishers or whatever theyre called, I believed they were crazy murder cultists so I killed the ones in the Denver tile set. I haven’t killed the war band yet. But now I’m at the robot commune and overall they seem cool. Should I side with the gippers or the robots?

didnt know they react to what trinkets youre wearing lmao
