LLL:Lucky Legendary Ghouls

[SaveTheZombies]

Anybody else get the best legendary gear off Ghouls only? Mutants, gunners, radscorpions (for me) just drop Junky's Baseball bats and Hunters Leather armor.
Legendary Ghouls drop things like this:

or the Furious Shishkabab I just got.

Yeah i agree. I can kill a legendary super mutant and i always get rolling pins and que pools but when i kill blood bugs and ghouls i get Gauss rifles, miniguns and shotguns.

[The Extreme Potato]

Nope
Best ledgendary I ever got was an explosive combat rifle, I got it off a ledgendary radroach.
I don't think I've ever got better than a machette off a deathclaw.

[Aries the Grinning]

Hehe, could be just as random as they come, I get my best loot of Legendary Radroaches :D
Makes me wanna sing the cucaracha, hehe.

If true, however, I would love to run into the Mr./Mrs pack of Ghouls when they turn legendary (though never seen any of them being such ;/)

[Wonko486]

Makes perfect sense really. Legendary deathclaws and super mutants: those are immediate threats. They have to dealt with every time they show up. Legendary rad roach... eh, just walk away. Run a little if need be. They get to keep their kit longer till someone hates bugs enough to do something.

Yup: my best weapons come off ghouls and low threat bugs. I walk around in coiled power armor, I don't even waste ammo on them anymore.

Did you get that at Dunwich Borers ? I got a legendary gatling laser off a feral there :P

[Dog]

i think a mirelurk drop my unlimited ammo combat shotgun. which is probably my best legendary that i found off of a enemy drop

i did get a 10mm pistol that shoots plasma off a ghoul thou, used that for ages till i got deliverer

[SaveTheZombies]

So it does seem to be a bit random but still it seems like the best stuff drops from those you would least likely suspect.

I'm just going to go with it. What are the best places to go Ghoul hunting. I want to get one of those explosive round guns I keep hearing about.

Y'know, I think that one was at Dunwich. I also got an unlimited Guass off a Ghoul in the Glowing Sea.

[wellser06]

I think I'm gonna start going back to Dunwich after a week in game time and keep clearing it ;) Yeah Glowing Sea will be one I try and farm...

Varies. Might be you're just sweeping through Ghoul-heavy areas. I tend to prefer sweeping Gunner- and BOS-held areas.

First legendary Gauss rifle I ever got was from a raider who was using it against me before his death.

(Oddly, I've found quite a few legendary Gauss rifles by this point... and plenty of legendary hunting and combat rifles, and even quite a few legendary missile launchers... but never a legendary assault rifle, despite assault rifles generally seeming much more common than Gauss rifles. Legendary drops are weird.)

Just got a kneecapper assault rifle ( like you my first in this playthrough) is that effect any good?

Its a healthy heap of hobbling if you like to go for the legs. I would keep it for slowing down tanks.
I have found a Lucky Combat Rifle but Toaster's right, I've found more Guass and Missile Launchers.

BTW Space Ghost Coat to Coast is the reason anything on Adult Swim exists. That show cracked me up.

Each hit has a chance of crippling a leg -- AFAIK, this holds no matter where you hit them, and no matter how strong the enemy is, or how low the weapon's per-shot damage is.

It's mostly useful against enemies that prefer to rush you, and are at least somewhat hardy -- deathclaws, higher-tier ghouls (lower-tier ones die pretty quickly, so a modest chance of crippling is less useful), assaultrons, mutant suiciders.

Against, say, Gunners, it's less useful; crippling will make them easier to hit by slowing them down, but they'll still shoot at you.

Ohh man that sounds kind of fun, bunch of enemies crawling around lol I use to watch Space Ghost when I was a kid saturday morning cartoons all the way haha
