Most Powerful One-Star Legendary Effect on Weapons, and Armor

[Grendalcat]

What do you think?

For weapons I would say Vampire's. I am almost invulnerable running around hitting targets with Vampire's Chainsaw or Minigun.

For armor I am not sure. Most of my PA has the Aristocratic effect, as I usually have over 29k caps on me. But maybe another effect is stronger?

Anti Armour on most guns. Two shot on miniguns and gatling lasers. Vampires is very powerful too.

Weapons, bloodied is most powerful but AA and vampires are more practical for use by all.

Regular armour unyielding is super strong for a bloodied build but for full hp life saving and auto stim are good.

Power armour the best universal one is overeaters. 27.8% damage reduction with 5 parts and fully fed and hydrated. The enemy specific damage reductions are good too but situational. Zealots good for SBQ event, Mutant slayers good for eviction notice etc.

The way the damage formula works, once your DR and ER is already over 300 adding small amounts of DR and ER like aristocrats, vanguards etc prefixes does very little. Especially when power armour already gets such high resistances. Percentage based damage reductions are way more powerful.

Depends on what kind of weapon it is, I personally find AA (Anti-Armor) to be the best legendary effect across the board due to armor penetration. So much so that if I was on a new character, say level 27, I am more than likely to stay with a AA hunting rifle then use a B+50crit handmade

depending on the weapon of course Number 1 Vampire has saved me over and over number 2 anti-amour

Depends on the weapon. Put quad ammo on a auto Railway, it's fun and you tend to get a lot of your ammo back. On the other hand Instigating on The Dragon is nuts.

Depends. Quad is nice on many, AA is universal for all builds, Vampire is effing awesome paired with ricochet perk for tankiness. Holding any Instigating weapon while tossing nuka grenades inside West-tech for farming.

I luv my unyielding armor on my bloodied build.
