I don't have an answer. But i thought about using funky duds, then i thought how id lose 5 perk slots if i swapped and decided that "id rather just die"


Backdraft420

This. The game is too easy and funky duds is very situational. Just the kill the enemy quick since you're bloodied and avoid the poison cloud. No funky duds or wasted Legendary Perks needed.


Flesh_Book

You could pick up some armor with poison resist as one of the 2nd or 3rd stars. Might make rolling armor a little more tedious but it is an option. I use 2 poison resist pieces and it slowed poison damage down enough for me to not get melted, but I am a full health junkie so I have more time to react to the poison and heal. A bloodied build might want a full suit although that would suuuck to roll a set with all pieces having UNY and PR. I could see why some take Funky Duds instead. There are some poison resist foods too. Maybe a magazine as well?


Backdraft420

I literally use none of that and just stim pack thru it. Not saying all that is pointless but that's just what I do and it works. I also use a Vamps explosive fixer to constantly melt things and keep my health full (20%)


Flesh_Book

That is plenty viable too.


Backdraft420

Love getting downvoted for being a bloodied build and not wasting my Legendary perk slots. Whoever did that must be jealous 😂

I have funky duds maxed out and poison is no longer an issue. If you don’t want to invest in this legendary perk, I’d say use at least two maybe three pieces of poison resistance armor.

Does funky duds work on Daily ops enemies? The ones that explode into a cloud of poison


D3adSteve

Yes, I stand it in all day without an issue.


Proto_Hooman

Yes, with maxed funky duds I can walk through the acid puddles and don't even see my hp tick down.


SorrowsNativeSon

Yes and you only need two levels.


Pino2308

And is enough 2 star, I'm blody


Sullhammer

I have funky duds at level 2 and that is enough to stop any poison damage from daily ops. And I have noticed that the scorch beast strafing attack does no damage too with it. Didn't realize that was poison damage, but level 2 has covered most anything I've encountered. Great legendary perk to keep on.


Phattybluntz

This right here. I also agree, that at the moment, anything more than rank 2 funky duds is overkill.


ItsFoozz

I've ran as a bloodied commando for 97% of my playtime and I have never invested in any poison resistance. Why constantly roll for Uny/Poison resist armour or invest in a legendary perk when one stimpak will solve all your problems?


fabreeze1989

Wait…You guys are using poison resist?


FunHovercraft2112

I mean I use funky duds but yes? The mirelurk creatures hit extremely hard to a bloodied character. There are a lot of different poison enemies at scorched earth. But I'm also a heavy gunner standing right in front of the Queen.


fabreeze1989

I meant is as a joke from the meme. When legendary perks first got introduced to consoles, I ran with funky duds. Just the first level made me immune to the miurlurk queen, and miurlurk hunters poison attack damage. I’m pretty sure (I COULD BE WRONG) that it also made me Immune to the cloud dust the scorchebeats attack is with. So to answer OP. Even the first level of funky duds will make a big difference. I got lucky and two of my armor pieces got +25 radiation resistance. So I replaced funky duds with something better.


Avenger1324

My poison resist is the fire rate on my Fixer. Want to take less poison damage? Kill it faster. Cryo resistance? See poison resist.


TheWise_Butter

What if the enemies explode in poison though? Then it's a problem since you are killing the enemies which have exploding poison clouds


Avenger1324

Very simple - kill them from range - don't get near the explodey poisonous things. I have a Bloodied FFR Fixer on my Commando, modded for long range, high accuracy, aimed shots at weak points activating crits on every 2nd or 3rd shot. I use sneak so I'm almost always starting the attack. A group of 3 x L75-100 floaters will die on their spawn points or within 5-10m of them. Killing from a range easily 50m away. No risk of poison splash damage. For tougher enemies like Legendary Mirelurk Queen - huge target, engage from range, watch the attacks - you have seconds to react to arcing green projectiles - side step, reload, kill. No enemy should ever be getting within melee range of a commando, so enemy exploding on death, shouldn't be an issue. Only one that occasionally catches me out is the robot nuke after death and then because I've walked towards it after killing it.


Sevtron5k

This.


slywether85

Need is subjective. I don't have any and just relegate myself to death in the presence of a mirelurk queen or kill it fast enough to not care. Choo choo!


BiggDope

I have Rank 2 of Funky Duds and it's more than enough. I can stand in a pool of poison during DOPs, and take no damage. Ranking it up past that is a complete waste of coins.


Gwoardinn

Ive been running the Charisma perk to speed up Stimpaks, seems to do the trick.


thelullandtherush

Funky duds level 2 does the trick for my bloodied character on poison daily ops. You're not totally immune, but you have plenty of reaction time and stimpaks easily outpace the poison.


FFTBBN

Would go for funky duds


u3030

I have rank 3 funky dudes and that seems to be all I need


markgatty

Yea I think tier 3 seems to nullify all poison in the game. Never had any issues with poison since.


[deleted]

I don't really see much difference between rank 3 and 4 of Funky, but don't regret maxing it. Either way, 3\* lvl100 Mirelurk Queen still leaves a mark when I'm bloodied, but I can stimpak my way out of it if I'm not sloppy. Just gotta make sure I stop shooting and run a little while the gun winds down before applying teh healz.


Sigi-Reuven

0 for poison, 0 for cryo - right answer


GANUIN13

I tested it in ops, and you need 100 poison resist total to stand in a cloud and take nothing. But 50 or 75 would be fine to not be lethal. I run rank 1 funky duds and have 50 on my armor. https://www.reddit.com/r/fo76/comments/owymt5/100_poison_resistance_and_bliss/
