Where to farm Legendary Gauss Rifle ?

Anywhere, legendary loot is irrelevant of the location you get it from

You don't "farm" for items, it's all random. You can get it from some random legendary radroach that you squashed without noticing.

But some weapons have legendary variants in predetermined places. For instance, you can buy "The Last Minute"[fallout.fandom.com] from Ronnie Shaw, it does 50% more limb damage.

You don't farm anything in this game. It's not a looter shooter or gear-based h'n's arpg.

In rerality, if you want a legendary weapon- you make it: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=651320193

'Farming' it may take 2 or 350 hours.

You can get one from Ronnie by joining the MM and after retaking the Castle quest and doing "Old Guns" quest. It's called "The Last Minute".

There are a bunch of legendary items in the game one can get without cheating and farming a lot. The very best Commando build rifle can be had by simply passing a speech test.

It's hard to imagine why you would want to farm a Gauss Rifle because what could be better than The Last Minute?

[The Inept European]

Legendary farming is a thing, and OP knows it, so there's no point pretending it's not a thing. In my opinion it's stupid and misunderstood. I would agree with "get a mod" instead of farming if your time is worth anything to you.

Location does matter, as it's one of the factors that determines which list of items are on the legendary drops. You want an interior cell (so you can reload it repeatedly) as far south & east as possible. Not many examples in the southeast (Quincy basement?) so you might have to go southwest into the glowing sea

He's not asking about 'A' legendary weapons, but a legendary version of a specific and relatively rare weapon, so why did you write that?

Where can you get a legendary gauss gun?

I was referring to your comment. On making legendary weapons by using the console. I mean, one can just type in GM, add stats to a Tire Iron and kill everything in the game. :P

But your game, your way. If it allows you to have more fun, go with it. But it is not needed to have fun and also, get legendary weapons, even a specific one. Without cheating.

Level 35 is the minimum for gauss rifles according to my notes, so wherever you choose to farm, you'll want yourself and your enemies to at least be hitting that. Beyond that, it's mostly a matter of luck and persistence.

Funnily enough, one of my most effective spots is an exterior location where I can even lock in the item if I handle it correctly.

But it takes a lot of fiddly setup because it relies on having control of the Nuka World Red Rocket and placing a travel mat at the right point to be able to arrive and make a manual save before the game catches up on spawning its legendary enemies.

I found a two shot gauss rifle. It's a beast.

Good point about the difficulty level
