Fallout 4 Atom Microwave?

[pjedilord]

So why can't we hook up generator with microwave oven,other kitchen items to work?
If we consider the fun of having nuke food with microwave oven,why are they
rare? Fallout 3 has microwave emitter does Fallout 4 to? people used good?

Why do atom only use gamma guns?Did they make the weapons?use much?hate SS
being fired by gamma, people mind?

They use gamma guns because they want everyone to "experience division" and the way they want to achieve this is by radiation. Logically they would use that kind of thing as a weapon.

I'm not sure that anyone would otherwise TRUST a microwave. Like, they have enough rads in their food already (and even if it's safe in the real world) it's not safe to add MORE!!

Microwave ovens use ionizing radiation to heat food. The power comes from an electromagnetic source, not a nuclear one. You cannot get rads from a microwave oven. Well, maybe one from Russia. IZPOTATO.

Weaponized microwave emitters are exponentially more powerful than the ones that come in microwave ovens, although they work on the same principle: agitating water molecules until something explodes. If the emitters in ovens could kill from a distance, my death ray invention would have been operational by now, and all of you would be treating me with a lot a lot a lot more respect. At short distances, though, an oven emitter could do you quite a bit of harm, especially if you have a pacemaker.

I worked at a store which we had a breakroom and a gigantic clunker of a microwave that had a sign on it that basically said "TELL US WHEN YOU USE THIS" so we can stay out of its range. It was terrifying.

But I mean that's real world stuff. Fallout's entire device lore may be very, very different and I absolutely would not put it past them to have made actual nuclear ovens. Why would they need anything else when this is right there?!

LIES!
Radiation is your friend! Just ask Nuka Cola with it's brand new refreshing Nuka Cola Quantum with that Strontium glow that just screams glow in the dark healthy!

Is there way to defect gamma gun beam?

If you mean 'technically' I think there's a rad resist perk? Otherwise whatever armor or field might have a similar effect I guess.

They zap SS to fast,perk worth having?

I haven't really used it, since I tend to kill first and get shot later...
