Level 8, when do you start finding good weapons?

[~Sound Sage~]

Been playing kind of casualy. After starting over from a fail build. I'm level 8 and have started exploring parts of lexington and areas near the starting part of the map.

I was forced to modify weapons and armor cause all I have been finding were pipe variants of weapons, and regular radier armors.

Best sniper i had found was a light pipe sniper :/

Are the better weapons in different areas, or are they determined by character levels?

Modding weapons is a major part of the game. and you will find better weapons with higher level. its a continuing process. just PLAY the game and stop worrying about your gear.

I'm level 54 and still see em. Mostly buy or upgrade. Legendary enemies give u good stuff

Yep just play and search all containers and safes. Eventually you'll find something nice and mod the crap out of it. On my first run-through I found a very nice sniper-rifle early in the game, right now on my second character I'm still using pipe-weapons at level 16, so dont sweat it.

You don't till level 20-30 range.

level 8? LOL the game doesn't even start until at least level 30...

If it's upgraded the humble 10mm gun isn't bad. The laser musket you get early on is also quite useful when you upgrade it to 4 shots. It's slow, but it makes an excellent sniper weapon.

Check out some of the vids on youtube. You can pick up some early weapons that do a good job. Plus pick the right perks{if you like auto weapons than pick that perk} it really helps with dmg for that type of weapon. Soon as you gain more levels the game becomes too easy so change the game play or it gets boring. Even that don't help after awhile but when the Geck comes out that will change------i hope lol!!! Still its a fun game.

I did a lot of my early exploration using these 2 weapons. One thing to also keep in mind is that the way you mod weapons it's possible to use rifles for close combat. A hunting rifle with a short barrel, short stock and reflex scope is as effective in close quarters as a pistol. This means that you only need to invest in you're rifleman perk.
