Epic bad luck right there.

But what sucks worst is stupid slugsnouts. If you as much as SEE one in Redrock... you're gonna have a bad time. But you have a few options.

1 - Waste a grenade to pwn it in the face. Luring to stairs, throwing a poison gas grenade and then going upstairs is a good way to take them out.
2 - Waste a bunch of salves to TRY and stay alive after getting shot multiple times.
3 - Run away, train until you're 4 levels higher, come back and beat it.
4 - Accept that the game hates you and give up. 

If you think slug snout are bad, wait for the chaingun turrets...

I once found the lair of a legendary chaingun turret with a confusion attack..

Slugsnouts can be nasty, they have high damage, good penetration and unlike turrets can move around corners to keep shooting you.
That said, I have never died to a turret. They have been dangerous a few times when I underestimated their damage and there were multiple ones in view, but died, although I could see how a confusion attack on a legendary could be a pain in the ass.

wow i forgot you can close this game without warning, just lost half an hour of progress by accidentally clicking on the x

In one game I started, I was heading to Red Rocks and either got lost or stumbled onto some ruins.  Either way, I walked out in front of a opening in the wall and was hit by a flurry of bullets, killing me instantly.

They're definitely nasty early on, but just about everything can be.

Slug snouts: Why I carry a gun.

[Micro102]

I am trying to play as a tank. A guy with a ton of health running around in heavy armor with a shotgun and a mace/shield.

What would you guys spec him as? I've got tons of willpower, then a ton of toughness, a bit of strength and ego, and int/agility are barely touched.

mutations are regeneration, fur, light, plant summoning

[Asra]

I would say agility is sort of important if you want to hit with your mace most of the time.

[Micro102]

I want to be a blob of health that only takes 1 damage at a time, using my mental abilities to fight for me, the mace is just cause it's the highest penetration value. Unless there is a downside to wielding a weapon you can't use?

[Twiggie]

maybe you should try heavy weapons if you find any?

[beorn080]

Honestly, a gun would probably be better then a mace. Especially a laser pistol or something.

[Micro102]

Well yeah but why not wield both?  Btw, going for shotgun, that count as a heavy weapon?

[jester]

I found massive health guy to be one of the easier ways to play the game, whatever weps you are trying to use.

meh, ive always got the furthest with dual dagger/pistol builds, for some reason.

I think it's because dual-wielding requires lots of agility, and that means never missing, and never missing means you're a hell of a lot more effective all the time.

[Asra]

I think I've always done best with the Eunuch build. (High Agility and Intelligence) then breaking into tinkering later usually, even though it seems less and less necessary the more I play sometimes since I tend to find everything I need in ruins.


Which reminds me, has anyone made a list on what can be created from Masterful Butchery? I know you can get things from salt hoppers, cave crabs, albino apes and chitinous pumas, but is there anything else out there?
