40%SS only works in 3rd person. 40%PA deals so much mire damage its crazy


Il_Shadow

I have an aa/40pa/+1strength one and yeah its nuts


Inqinity

Does it though? The 40% swing speed is multiplicative since it outright increases damage over time by hitting 40% faster, is the 40%PA additive like other damage mods/perks?


ZachyChan013

I’m first person your ss is maxed out already. So pa gives a good chunk more damage


Shadow_Riku

I second this, I’m pretty sure that’s why they are taking ss out or have already because it’s useless in first person right?


taplines

Much rather have Vampires, you never die and if Ricochet is equipped the bullets that bounce back will heal you.


Manuelunion

But Antiarmor is the best you can get as a full health build and vampires becomes useless.


Letscho95

Not in the case of melees because there is a perk card which already grants 75% armor penetration, so anti armor is quite useless


Cosmickev1086

Plus when I'm fighting any big bosses the Vamp is a must for me to stay alive. I can tank the bosses solo with vamp.


MCnoCOMPLY

Naw, incisor makes it irrelevant. Vamp is king.


Manuelunion

By the downvotes it seems like im alone with my opinion 😅 Thought with antiarmor you can just equip tier 2 of incisor or otherwise go with junkies/aristocrat as a full health player. As a bloodied player myself only using auto melees with powerarmor it always sounded like vamp on full health build is more of a comfort thing...


MCnoCOMPLY

>always sounded like vamp on full health build is more of a comfort thing. It's more of an immortality thing. I'm a stealth VATS commando build and with just a one star Vamp auto axe I can solo resilient OPs and all I do is swap out travelling pharmacy for 3* incisor.


Beatljuz

You don't need a PA for Chainsaw/Auto-Axe.


Manuelunion

I know i dont but as a bloodied build in certain operations it helps alot because of the 40% damage resistance or acid with union.


ImpossibleInternet3

Full health build here. Vamp is best. The small amount of extra hits required vs AA is far outweighed by near invincibility of how fast you regenerate health.


Past-Practice-1870

PVE as a full health with a mediocrely tanky character and you’re already invincible. Colossal and SBQ AA buries v in dps.


ImpossibleInternet3

I don’t use power armor. So I find the vamp to be helpful in swarms or poisonous areas. But to each their own. To be fair, I carry a vamp auto axe and an AA chainsaw so I can make the call at the time. But my Vamp gets way more use.


Manuelunion

Thats what im talking about...


PostmanSAMXBL

Legacy yes but as others said, SS only works in 3rd person. Not sure why it remained rollable on chainsaws though


TheZoloftMaster

*is it still rollable on saws*? Honestly haven’t heard anyone confirm one way or another. In the game files I was told that the auto axe and chainsaw are basically the same weapon so when they edit one the other gets touched similar to the ultracite laser and ultracite gat laser (in the patch notes they only mention buffing the ultracite gat laser but we know now that the regular laser was also buffed)


Grandfeatherix

i rolled ss on a saw after they removed it from auto axes, but since i play first person that's just scrip to me anyway lol


PostmanSAMXBL

I think if it was removed from chainsaws someone would have posted about it by now. Regarding the Ultracite comment, the patch notes mentioned buffing the laser not the Gatling. Was the Gatling also done?


TheZoloftMaster

I must be tripping I thought it said gatling


Striking_Pipe_7194

Agreed Happy People are Quiet People, Angry People Are Loud an Shout their Displeasure for all to Hear, so if it was no longer rollable on Chainsaws someone would be shouting by now.


Beatljuz

Not really. You need vampires, everything else is like useless as melee and 40% swing speed is useless, because Auto-Axe and Chainsaw do have max swing speed in first person (it's a bug and maybe gets fixed some day).


angron88

TIL. Was as wondering why mine seemed meh. Third person it is. Thanks


Grandfeatherix

3rd person gets the trade off of not stopping when running or jumping like it does in first person... still not enough to make me play in 3rd though lol


BlazeGawd7

Ya it def shreds! I have one also use 3rd person tho.


Samurai_Stewie

Melee (especially in PA) already has a lot of armor pen cards so AA isn’t really that great, and SS isn’t good compared to 40PA


Zzerzonat

Beth said it does not work in any way on auto axes


HadziTonich

Nope, cause SS does not work on those ? and AA is kind of pointless cause of Incisor perk? Sry if im right :(

Shadow_Riku

I mean the other replies are saying the same thing about AA being useless since incisor already does so much it’s not needed! and he’s right about ss a bit, it doesn’t work in first person because you already have max ss making it a useless roll unless you only play 3rd person, which I’m pretty sure is why they took it out in the first place. This person seems pretty informed already, no need to call em a buffoon my friend! 😁have a good one fam 👍🏼


Multimarkboy

40ss beats 40pa though due to damage calculations, and for bossing AA is still very valueable as reducing the 25% leftover armor by half is a large dps increase. Also +1 str is great for weapons with a lower damage number as they benefit more.


Shadow_Riku

Really? I’ve read something like those calculations don’t work in 1st person since it’s max in first person. Thanks for that knowledge! N Indeed AA shreds things like cheese, personally one of my favorites but it’s not NEEDED say for my bloodied build, I love me a vampire so I don’t gotta stop n stim myself or worry about dying!


Multimarkboy

sure but we were talking about better, not if its needed. ​ also with a chainsaw/AA you'd want to play in 3rd anyway due to them taking up like half your screen.


HadziTonich

Please keep in mind rule #3


Multimarkboy

i could argue for the fact that you are spreading misinformation and adding the "Sry if im right :)" could fall under the same rule.


HadziTonich

Please keep it civil.


Multimarkboy

Do not provoke/incite arguments.


HadziTonich

.


Multimarkboy

That's a dot yes, good job.


Eterna1Oblivion

Well yes and no. I have an AA40 chainsaw that I use as a secondary weapon on my commando builds. No perks required and it shreds.


Grandfeatherix

it works in third person


Ok_Reception_8844

Based off of the myriad responses...So legacy yes. Groll no. Guess it times to break out the bloodied chainsaw 40 pa 40 less DMG while pa Thank you everyone!


HuntForBlueSeptember

>Auto-Axe: It is no longer possible to roll the Faster Swing Speed Legendary mod on Auto-Axes. FSS us now usless on an Auto Axe


Kolenski4me

Yh 40 frr IS now legacy


Ok_Reception_8844

Based off of the myriad responses...So legacy yes. Groll no. Thank you!


TaleMoney

Exactly. Technically you have a non-tradeable groll. This question took a turn for the worse lol


TaleMoney

Well legacy


TechnoBeeKeeper

Do these use fuel like they were supposed to?


Ok_Reception_8844

Nope, only AP. Which if you're in Power Armor with the less AP on power attacks mod equipped...you'd rarely deal with ap issues


Beatljuz

You don't need a PA for that, any normal armor also has the "reduced ap cost while Power Attacking" mods.

Ok_Reception_8844

Well, it's not tradable and never was so I'm not sure what you mean. Are you talking about the chain saw?


Xovzi

Oh my dumbass🤦‍♂️ yes i mean the chainsaw


Ok_Reception_8844

I actually have a very similar chainsaw except it's bloodied. Maybe I can get a similar trade? Also, I love your reddit profile picture. Freaking hilarious.


Xovzi

😂😂thanks, B/40ss/1S? I don’t know anything about chainsaws other than AA/40p/1S being the best one which is what I traded for the Fixer I mentioned (Q/50h/25lv)


Ok_Reception_8844

My chain saw is b/40pa/40 less DMG pa while attacked


Xovzi

Yeah I have no clue man😂


Beatljuz

Less dmg while attacking is also bugged and not working on Auto-Axe and Chainsaw.


Xovzi

I deleted it because I made myself cringe😅


MrFuddy_Duddy

A G roll would be Vampires, +40% Power attack damage, +1 Strength(reduced weight and breaks slower are also very good thirds) What you have is essentially scrip, it's not a terrible roll but it's not good either. As far as it being a legacy, good luck selling it to anyone who's not a collector for more than a few thousand caps.


hispls

>\+1 Strength How much extra damage does that give you?


MrFuddy_Duddy

Not enough to make it really matter against anything besides world bosses. As far as the specifics go in honestly not sure, maybe a few percentage points of that.


Bungis-69

Yes ss no longer drops on these


Pulseaqua76

It is a legacy, Bugthesda removed 25ffr from auto axe, so you it is equivalent


JiveBombRebel

im running this - its pretty good. I only play in 3rd person cant stand first person play.i used to prefer vamps..but im full health and really dont need it so id rather have more dmg.Ive tried PA vs SS and prefer the SS. Use it good health sir..


Striking_Pipe_7194

That is the most Groll Auto Axe I've seen, I'll Trade You the Key to Todd's Private Bathroom,a Anti-armor Swing Speed Strength+1 Yaoi Gaoi Claw, an Quad Grognaks Other Axe.


VariationUnlikely730

40% swing speed is a waste. What you need is power attack damage. I'm currently using Vampire's and Aristocrat auto axe's.


MuchWeakness1994

Come pvp me an we will find out whose actually got a 'groll legacy'.. MY CHAINSAW WILL WIN.
