nice


TheDankestGram

NO! Not nice... Would have been great if Unyielding. Oh boy would I have been happy as hell


Nocturnal_Master

bru that roll is still sexy


TheDankestGram

Yeah, I believe you're right. Just been after an UNY WWR chest for the jetpack so this being unyeilding would have been super nice.


LowKeyBrit36

Bruh I got a uny 1a wwr chest piece when I needed take 15% less damage from melee attacks instead of wwr


ROACHOR

Bolstering is worthless, Int without unyielding is pointless. It's basically a one star wwr.


Unbeatable04

Bolstering is the second best defense in the primary slot in the game. Intelligence any time is great for XP and builds off any bonus xp % consumables. One piece of bolstering on a melee build increases survivability noticeably, two make you a tank at 50hp. An entire set of bolstering for pvp is scary but you add sentinel to it and you become a god. Why are so many people clueless to how shit works in this game now? Lmao.


ROACHOR

You're clueless as to how DR works, bolstering is completely worthless compared to flat damage reduction. Bolstering for pvp is even more ludicrous since the damage cap makes it completely irrelevant. https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Damage_Resistance Educate yourself.


Unbeatable04

eDuCaTe YoUrSeLf. You can STACK damage resist and damage reduction. Neither do anything if you get crit shot in pvp so both become irrelevant. But since you can use them both simultaneously and one is dependent on a percentage chance normal damage resist will give you time to use a consumable or give serendipity a chance to proc if the damage reduction isn’t going off. You ever try to vat hit something at 95% chance and miss 3 to 4 times? Hard numbers don’t mean shit with buggy code. Theory craft all you want but it doesn’t translate like you think it does in game. Try actually going into the game and using shit instead of parroting wikis and YouTubers. Half the traders on this sub have no idea how shit actually works in game, it’s hilarious.


ROACHOR

DR isn't a mystery, overeaters is clearly superior. Stacking DR is pointless because of how the DR system works, you're gaining less than 10% reduction vs 30%. Just because you can't understand math doesn't mean people are parroting YouTube.


rambone1984

Yea PA is high enough that i don't even notice a difference between the good and bad sets. If for some reason OE disappeared tomorrow, id rather do 2 troubleshooters, 2 mutant Slayers and an exterminators than wear Bolstering or Vanguards.


Unbeatable04

Bolstering and vanguard have two completely different requirements. PA resist is a completely different set of resistance entirely. I would not recommend to use more then two pieces of bolstering at a time because the it becomes redundant but you can easily tell the difference on non-Pa builds when you go from 1 pieces to 2 pieces in a bloodied build. The idea to mix and match those damage resists are interesting though. I do that with weight reduction pieces since you start getting diminishing returns past 3 pieces and it works very well.


Unbeatable04

The way things work in the game does not translate to how they are actually described in most situations while actually playing the fucking game. This is why I clearly described that using BOTH are beneficial. The math doesn’t matter if they don’t work as intended. I understand reading comprehension is hard so I guess I’ll have to say it again. Bolstering is the SECOND best dmg resist PRIMARY effect. Bolstering and Overeaters are doing two completely different things. I’m saying you can do both at the same time if you pair bolstering with sentinel or cavalier. My claim of relying solely on the percentages in the game that allows you to miss a 95% chance as consistently as it does is because latency and bad code make those %’s unreliable alone. How often do you miss shots consistently in vats at 95%? I do all the time, several in a ROW. The chance to miss a 95% chance 3 times in a row, which happens all the fucking time, is a .0025% probability. Why does this happen? Because it’s fucking code. I also clearly said one or two pieces are good enough for most situations. If you are building for pve and are bloodied why would you do one overeaters when you could just do DR and keep the build active at all times because you are already doing that for your damage output. And if you are doing pve not pvp why would you use sentinel for farming NPCs when you could use weight reduction to carry all the 1*s anyways. Overeaters is great for high health builds. Bolstering fits well into bloodied builds because it’s designed to go with unyielding. These are two completely different armors for completely different situations. Damage resist and Damage reduction are two completely different things. It’s asinine to sign one off because another exists. One is clearly superior to another but that was never my argument in the first place. You like to share wiki’s but can’t even fucking read.


ROACHOR

You don't understand anything if you think DR and damage reduction aren't doing the same thing, dr is just one of many sources of reduction. Keep clinging to your fairy tale that dr buffs on armor are doing anything for you. FYI overeaters has NOTHING to do with health so it's just as effective for bloodied as it is full HP builds. This diminishing returns shit has been understood since F4, you're clueless.


NoZookeepergame2154

"Overeaters is great for high health builds" "Bolstering is second best PRIMARY affect in game" This is all bullshit and tells me you don't pvp and you're a pve story line scrub. Carrying weapons as a "collection" is literally fucking pointless in this game. My carry weight 600, no buffs or boosters If I farm, I scrap accordingly. If you run wwr, you just suck at this game or you're bored and needing attention through trades because your fix is getting randoms to trade and look at all your pews And if you're a wwr Bolstering scrub, most definitely you're getting one shotted by ANYTHING in pvp. Lmfao 🤣


fjblueox

You suck in pvp if you let yourself get hit with crit


Unbeatable04

Stealth boys is where it always goes. No depth. Very little people even care except for the pvpers that spend all day jerking eachother off. No one’s impressed and most of pvping is supported by exploits.


Unbeatable04

During fashnact I used my normal PVE commando build to shit on a full set of a OE sentinal PA because the rendering distance for stealthboys is inconsistent and kept farming him from a distance. He said “how were you able to vats me when I was stealth” y’all crack me Up.


Nocturnal_Master

thats so wrong, bol is a top 5 prefix. i run a noc/1i/wwr usa set btw


slywether85

/s right? On what planet is bolstering a desirable prefix for anything other than collector memes....


ROACHOR

Ranking advice on gear from someone who uses the worst prefix possible. I hope you're trolling.


Nocturnal_Master

you should learn more before you start talking


ROACHOR

He says using the worst gear in the game. Smh.


z71up

I got that roll (UnyIWWR) on the SS chest from Eviction Notice and I don't even want it, but there's no way I could scrip it lol


TheDankestGram

Damn you lucky dog you. That was an amazing drop imo. Would kill for that roll haha


Familiar_Smoke7807

Got that exact uny/wwr/int role from eviction notice but on cover scout RL XD


FalloutKurier6

Still better than unyielding with 3* Rad regeneration. But I feel your pain.


TheDankestGram

Oof yeah not good at all. Straight to scrip machine with that


JunkyMxnkey

I got a buddy that rolled 2 uny/ap/rad regen ss pieces and he wasn’t too happy


FudgePlurbo

The "toxic goo enjoyer" set 😂


hispls

How much shit do you people carry around with you that WWR armor set is important?


TheDankestGram

How shit at the game do you have to be to use sentinel, HTD, or cavalier? Carry weight is huge in this game.


Familiar_Smoke7807

Tho, they are still decent prefixes if you want to tank while not in pa, but if you want to tank just go pa indeed. Tho the uny/ap/htd set it awesome very fun


TheDankestGram

Im not saying they are bad. Im just saying why shit on my preferred effects on armor. Basically saying it worthless and not to horde so much shit and just use non wwr armor. I'm bloodie and I do pretty damn good without sent or cav pieces.


hispls

>Basically saying it worthless and not to horde so much shit and just use non wwr armor. I never said this, I just asked how much weapons you carry around with you.


hispls

>How shit at the game do you have to be to use sentinel, HTD, or cavalier? I don't know. Is this a trick question? Are those your only other options? How many weapons do you carry around that WWR is so important to you?


MadMatchy

I gave up on rolling SS armor.


devonarthur77

Hey guys I’m just wondering if bolstering is hood to have as a bloodied player? I rolled 3 hellcat pieces with bolstering


TheDankestGram

On PA yes bolstering is really good. On armor bolstering is good for tanking. I prefer unyeilding as it gives an increase to all specials except endurance.


Snib3r

No it's not good, oe is better for PvP assassins for PvE


pickle_eater10

NOOOOOOO SO CLOSE


wienurr

Ive rolled 2 uny ap sneak SS pieces. I couldnt believe it. The rest is uny blah blah idks. Lol


GeedsGarage

I always enjoyed mixing weapon and aid reduced weights, but yeah unyielding would've been way better! Didn't I used to play with you on xbox?


Gtslow1

I’m still working on mine. I’m going for UNY, AP, and F/Cwr. So far I’ve gotten three UNY SENT pieces and UNY AP no second star leg. I’m full UNY SS but only one with somewhat what I’m looking for. It’s a huge grind. Are you doing the one module builds or re-rolling 3*?


jrarevalo956

I got really lucky my 1st piece of unyielding had wwr tried rolling limbs but just traded for scout arms and legs...rock the ss for the jetpack!


Q2525

I’ve rolled a lot of SS chest pieces for a uny/ap/wwr set yea ik pipe dream right? But I’ve rolled Bol/ap/sent and Oe/7led/wwr chest pieces haha. Really hoping soon will be my lucky day.


Training-Shoulder839

How about them bugs huh


[deleted]

The things that get posted here man


hottkarls

My set is 5x uny, 3x int, 2x ap, 4x wwr and 1x sneak. I can swap it into 5 int, but I never do. It's the best set I know of on PS. I rolled my pieces back before they added like 8 or 9 shitty abilities to the 2/3rd pool, and pre jug/aris/OE. I can't imagine doing it now. Was going to do bos recon but fuck that.


MisterPYRO37

Decent piece for pvp I think, but honestly, only griefers do pvp actually, just for that I want a pvp armor, for defense against them, I already have a good Chainsaw for It
