Serious ranged weapon glitch
So my ranged weapons suddenly stopped doing damage to enemies.
Melee still works, and my settlers and npcs can shoot, but I can no longer damage them with ranged, which has pretty much broke my game.
I tried reloading a couple different saves, but it just keeps happening.

Anyone else getting this?

[Edit] Found someone else reporting this, oddly enough it happened on the ps4 version as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V86qHhF4KeA

This happened to me as well. Melee damage works normally as mentioned. The truth is, there is still some amount of damage dealt when using ranged weapons, but it is negligible. And I also take negligible damage when I am attacked by enemies, except from melee attacks.

I play the PC version. This started happening when I picked up the Lone Wanderer perk Rank 3. I thought the perk might be bugged so I loaded a previous save but the previous saves are also affected, as it is mentioned on the video above.

I made a bug report to Bethesda. Would like to know if this bug is officially known and is being worked on.

I know this is an old thread but it just happened to me today. Was going into thicket excavations. Killed one raider just fine, then found a legendary raider. Got her mutated and then all of a sudden my guns stopped doing any damage. Figured maybe I was just missing. Turns out any and all mobs there now cannot do any damage to me with ranged/exp or me to them. Melee still works just like the op says.

Did not see much at all about this bug on google. Some say it effects old saves, and some say it goes away on its own.

Was wondering if anyone else ever had this bug? :steamfacepalm:

Edit: forgot that quick but any time I kill one of them now they slow mo fall to the ground.
Also no mods.

Using 'TCL'? That will stop your projectiles from interacting with objects also.

Nope no mods or console

Edit: And now I found out the hard way they do damage again. Very funny bug. xD

Edit2: so I loaded a game up, going back to the thicket results in the same thing. It seems the outer raiders dont do ranged damage and I do not ether. But the inner ones do. Meh xD
