Is this a hacked gun?
Just saw someone selling a Bloodied Prime Enclave Plasma Rifle 2 Star with Bullets Explode for Area Damage and 20% more Damage with Prime Capacitor, True Sniper Barrel Short NV Scope and Forceful Stock

The ones inside vendor machines stayed explosive, probably loses star once bought/removed from vendor.

sooo is that just an explosive legacy or is it a hacked gun?
Who knows, probably just another duped legacy that was put in a vendor before the patch.

Yes, it is a hacked gun. Plasma guns dropped only as 1-star before explosive energy weapons were removed from loot pool and enclave plasma gun has never dropped as legendary so all plasma pistols/rifles with explosive bullets are hacked.

Pretty sure that is a hacked weapon.

I don't believe the plasmas were rollable as legendaries until a year or so ago which means it wouldn't have been able to get a legit explosive roll.

Ohh it's an enclave plasma, was reading that as (assumed) gatling plasma.

@OP yeah it's a hacked weap. Plasma rifles/pistols were never dropped when you could get explosive effects on energy weapons.

Soooo that means that hacked guns are in game and legacies are gone. Good job Bethesda. Completely failed to take out the main problem and also nuked legacies. Meanwhile the game also became unplayable for many users
It'll lose the star once taken from the vendor, so only good for that one guy keeping in his vendor forever or to rip some random player off who then finds the star has gone once he bought it (probably end up being used as former).
it's a hacked item. good luck with it if you bought it.

Yes it is a hacked gun.

All plasma guns both regular and Enclave could not have a 2nd star effect until after explosive energy was stopped from dropping. So any plasma gun with explosive it is an injected effect.

Also the 20% extra damage effect is from the Fixer and maybe something else I am forgetting. It cannot drop legitimately on other guns. So it is an injected effect as well.

Seconded 100% injected, which also probably means it won't get deleted

It may say it has the effect, but bethesda said that it is a bug saying it does when it does not

I doubt this is how it works because this gun was sold on vendor for 1000 caps. Chances are someone will buy it by mistake, so Beth wont just hand out bans for that. They might remove the weapon.

The reason why Bethesda was pushing the illegal attachment patch is because they dont want to ban their customers especially if they are not aware of those weapons being illegal. Not everybody uses forums.

If they buy the gun, i believe the explosive effect will be gone. I had one, and it just vanished and was replaced with Superior Damage to Scorched.
