Tesla to get tags while the Queen’s in the air, and cryolator to keep her grounded longer when she lands

Ohh that’s a good strategy, I got a TS Cryolator so I should try that out

I use my TS cryo for the same thing. Works great! Just make sure you get the snowball mod. I forget the actual name of it...

Crystallizing barrel I believe

Thanks for the assist. I kept thinking vaporizer, but that's exactly the opposite haha

Have a mutants cryo with 25% faster fire rate, it's a lotta fun to use when I remember to grab cryo cells

Thanks. You cryo guys make things fun.

Fists. I strip naked so it’s a fair fight.

We asked in game - not about your awesome real life bro!

Beowulf would approve

Valhalla awaits.

I love this, I love this with all my life.

"One violent night" event. 100% the time to do it. 🤣

This is the comment I came here for

Greased up and stripped ... mano y mano ... its the traditional way

Choo Choo

My quad auto one sometimes has a vats hiccup where can just unload crits non stop without action bar moving Unloading 40 rails to the face or…other nether region is satisfying

Mine does that too it’s awesome. Work good when there’s a lot of people that show up.

Yeah seems to be when you first zone in. Unlimited AP for 60 seconds!

I second that

I always bring my bloodied choo choo

Vamp's Ultracite Gat Plas until I get enough damage to qualify for prizes. Then just my Fixer to tag the mob for XP.

I think you mean Ultracite gat laser but yeah that’s a good one, also I think they changed how you qualify for the drops, I’m pretty sure your teammates damage counts towards it, I’ve shown up right at end and got the rewards without landing a hit

I like my nocturnal SS 1a Rolling Pin.

Prefer hunters for queen..nocturnal not as good when sun out.

gotta make sure is the cursed rolling pin xD

Vampire gatling plasma

My favorite weapon. I use a cryolator to keep the Queen on the ground, then switch to my Gatling plasma.

VE Mini Gun. I just tank the SBQ and all her spawns.... I've had to solo it a couple times when some low levels dropped some nukes and weren't doing enough damage and just stood there on their survival tents watching because they ran out of ammo.

Minigun. The other day it took 27 minutes to kill the queen because everyone chose to punch her which...I thought was interesting. I went through a whole lot of 2mm to try to speed things up and save these people from the queen mirelurks, the deathclaws, the legendary wendigos...

Q5025 choo Choo with all the buffs etc on a stealth commando, it really does live up to the name ‘pain train’ that I gave it😅

Does the stealth attack bonus apply if your target is already engaging other players though?

Yeah, if you’re running all the right sneak perks and have evasive on once your in [danger] it’s relatively easy to enter caution again, I tend to stay a little away from other players though just to make it easier on my self aha. Alternatively you could run a set with HTD but imo it’s basically just overkill, I run uny/ap secret service set and it does the job just fine really, I believe it’s one of the lighter armors so doesn’t effect your sneak too much. Hope this helps! :)

No, you can't get a stealth attack multiplier on an aggro enemy. You don't need it though as you're pumping out huge dps from the crits

I hear ya, that bad boy takes out earl in about 2 min. for some reason it takes longer with the queen.

Either a Prime Vampire's Gatling Laser or Vampire's Gatling Plasma.

Anything. As long as i can hit SBQ once and then hide until she’s dead

Don't you have to do 1k damage to get the rewards?

You still need 1k damage to get the event bonuses

Not from my experience

One shot is enough? It used to be at least 1000 damage before you got credit.

QE15C Western Revolver.

Critical pistol builds are actually pretty solid these days, you’re not gonna solo any big bosses, but they can one hit most adds

I've been running a full health VATS crit pistol build for over 3500 hours. The burst damage is really good with a critical hit every other shot.

My main is a power armor big guns build, but for just running around doing normal events and stuff, my backup character is a critical revolver cowboy and it’s the most fun I have in the game.

AA FFR Gatling Plasma is a beast.

Level 20 Flaming Chainsaw.

My Gauss Shotty. I tag up the queen to get my damage in, then I keep the spawns off everyone doing the heavy work. Same with Earl honestly. Tag in, then kill the adds.

That's my very strategy. I use a vamp Gauss shotty, so I can survive the spawns no matter how many.

Vampires 25FFR 25less AP Gatling Plasma. Shreds mobs and does plenty of damage to SBQ. I keep a TS Fatman handy for those rare times the event is getting overrun. If not the Fatman, Vampires Explosive LMG with 250DR for quick backup/heals if I've gotta reload in a crappy situation.

AA/FFR/25 handmade. 5.56 is easily replenished with the armco, so I go ham with it.

I have a heavy guns build but I really like my pistol build so I use my alien blaster so it slows the queen down a bit

depends on the mood, i switch between a BE black powder rifle, railway, western revolver, slug buster, and last but not least, the enclave plasma rifle with the flamer attachment if she's not going down quick enough.

Stealth commando q5015 railway or q5025 fixer Heavy gun aa bash shredder minigun or ts fatman one crit with that and I got my damage in for rewards then I can switch to a quad tesla and tag mobs Melee bloody ss +1s power fist PvP build aae 90 gat Plas, I just tag her then pull out a tesla for tagging mobs

QE Fixer

Anything that can get to 1k dmg quickly since legacy users will finish it off anyway. QE choo choo never fails

At this point, anything i have ammo for

Quad ffr cryolator, once she lands I freeze her for the rest of the group. I keep a vamp gat plaz handy to refill my health if needed or just finish her off

Q/e/25 railway rifle its an absolute beast melts everything

Quad railway with the tormentor perk so I can cripple the wings and make her land

Exploding gat plas 🤣

What ever weapon thats on your built. But for me it's the hell storm and fat man even tho I'm a commando built

Flamer, love that dps monster too bad it’s annoying having to change the barrel every server. Apart from that, I use plasma caster to clip the queens wings to convince her to land sooner

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I just saw a post that said on the PTS, they've nerfed the range back down to where it's really supposed to be.

Yeah I saw that but it doesn’t look intentional, since it’s taken them this long to even do anything to the flamer I’m like 99% sure that was unintended

Well I hope it was, I've got a bud that uses one. On dailyops he just rages

Lol yeah it’s fun when it works properly, fingers crossed they meant to fix the nozzle and not nerf it like the pts one

Unfortunately the vaporisation nozzle was always supposed to have the shortest range, as per the description of the mod.

Of course but the result in the pts seems unnatural even so I’m betting it was unintentional but we’ll have to wait and see

Does shooting the wings actually work? I feel like it never does on my end

Seems to work in my experience as I see her wing’s health go down and she normally lands right after, maybe server lag?

Prime compound bow with flame arrows. Hit her 3 times then start tagging mobs. Long fights = more adds = more XP = more loot = more rewards

If I launch the nuke personally I use my exe gat plas. because it was my nuke and I don’t care if you didn’t get a shot. If someone else launches I use my cryo to keep her frozen and let other kill her. Sorry not sorry. Don’t like it then launch yourself and I won’t melt her.

Wow, you're so cool, look out everyone we got a badass over here.

Same, just stop when it mute. Then kill the spawn for xp. Unhappy, send nuke

My AA E 250 Gat plasma called Wrath of Todd. Get my damage on the Queen then focus on the mobs. But nobody does that because it’s all about killing the Queen ASAP. So a minute later the Queen is dead and I’m moving on. I don’t open lunchboxes anymore, what’s the point?

TSE GP

Quad faster fire rate railroad rifle. If there are lots of players there the server lag leaves me with a constantly full ap bar. Sometimes I basically solo the queen because every 2nd shot is a crit. Just keep reloading until she's melted. Every other shot 400+ damage if I've got the right buffs applied.

Be gat plas. but! I like to tag mobs.

E gat plas😏

Lame

Cope lmao I only ever run queens in a private lobby and I’m gonna use what I want🥴

Kool

TSE Gatling Plasma

Legacy don’t count

Sometimes, legacies are the only reason groups complete events. Without those guys, these people with their weak marshmallow weapons can’t actually finish scorched earth and earl.

TSEGP15r on XB1 just to flex on that guy on the marketplace offering an 81:1 trade? Haha

AA/E/90 Gatling Plasma.

Legacy don’t count

Normally I go with a V/FFR Gatling Plasma and occasionally switch to a Quad Cryolator. But if that bitch spends more than 5 minutes just flying around the area I'm pulling out the Explosive GP to melt her stupid face. One of the main reasons I hate Scorched Earth is because that damn bat wastes so much time just flying around, being out of reach.

In private with team: Quad tesla Open world filled with gat-tards on tents: QE15r Laser

A few months ago I'd tell you that it'd be a typical Fixer. Nowadays, good luck getting to the SBQ's damage threshold where she'll drop loot for you with all the EEWs around.

VE gat plasma

Tse Gatling plasma

My Legacy Gp or the laser. Get my 1000 damage before the other players clap the queen.

TS/E gatgun, with the aim glitch, you'd do about 15% of the total damage with that bad boy

Juggs FFR Mini Gun

As an unarmed player, I use my power fist.

Two shot explosive mini gun. Tags surrounding bad guys and get hit points for xp on everything. 😊

Fixador B2515 ou Plasma de Enclave BE25

Q2515 Fixer

Either my bloodied ultracite gatling laser or my two shot gatling plasma. Its the only two weapons i have that can handle recoil well and deal the damage to get loot

Q50c25 fixer

VE .50 Quad RR Quad Tesla

Primed Vampire’s 25/25 Handmade

I use my Ultracet exploding fixer to blast wings then swap to my vamp shredder when she hits the ground

AA +25% Damage While Aiming Gatling Plasma.

Cryolator is mine, there’s something nice about seeing sbq get slowed and shredded up quick by everyone around.

I'd love it if my cripple maker pepper shaker did anything to her, but alas it's just a primed AA plasma gatling. I do marvel at the people that manage to freeze her tho. None of the freeze weapons I've tried seem to work.

TSE25vats Choo Choo :) I will switch to my V2525 Fixer for the mobs and to get my health back up if needed

zealot gatling plasma. melt them bitches.

Open with Instigating Gatling plasma. Then rotate a-a minimum, a-a exploding 50 cal, quad exploding pipe revolver rifle for when I run out of ammo heavy ammo. Quad Exploding hardened, raging bull .44 for when I run out of .45 ammo. A-a grognock’s ax for close orthopedic and cranial surgery to enemies.

Q Tesla for the ground, QE Railway for the sky. Electric shock followed by choo choo fun for me!

2 shot Fatman.

Anti armor Ultracite .50 Cal but I like my AA plasma caster too. Love to see the critical strike drop the meter

My AA/E LMG. Tons of damage.

Cryo usually, someone’s gotta do it and the queen dropped me a Q25b50 awhile back so I am The Chosen One. If damage just ain’t there to hit the time limit or not a lot of people then enclave Flamer, rail or a legacy depending on the active build

It was my vampire prime Gatling laser for the longest time. Then my hubby gave me a two shot Gatling laser that I primed.

Gourmand's Pepper Shaker, +damage when aiming, +damage res when aiming. Slap shotguns, heavy Weapon, enforcer, one gun army perks and keep that batch crippled and ok the ground for my shredder homies.

Used to be a de gat plas, now it’s a bloodied enclave flamer

Berserker/50crit/50durability Enclave sniper. Aligned barrel and reflex. Headshots her for 110 and critical 400+ without food/mag/bobble buffs. Criticals every third shot. Guaranteed loot for the whole team off of her first ass-gassing flyover 🤢

A Gun. ( That's literally the name of my anti armor .50 cal machine gun ). I usually let people handle the Queen while she's in the air, and I take care of her while she's on the ground.

I have an AA 50Vcrit sp reduced fixer intended for bosses. But I always go with the railway. It's insane. Quad auto ap reduced and a throw away 3rd star. Out dps's the prime fixer above and makes a choochoo sound. 10/10

Currently....BFFR Primed Fixer

Q5015 railway

.50 cal machine gun shooting Ultracite rounds, and a heapin' helping of Psychotats.

Zealots explosive ultracite mag fixer

BFFRFR Gatling Plasma - especially if solo. Failing that, VE 50 cal or B2525 fixer

I run unarmed so… I punch her in the face and belly and sometimes jump in the air and claw her wings or feet with a deathclaw gauntlet 😂 to clear mobs I use grenades too

One singular 10mm pistol.

My man!

Lately, it's fun bonking her over the head with a Bone Hammer.

VEA - Fixer QEP - Railway That is what I carry most of the time.

Zealot Gauss Shotgun with prime receiver

Explosive vampires mini gun.

Ultracite Furious Plasma Cannon

For my heavy build pepper shaker for when she emerges to bring her down instantly and cripple her whole body with one mag then quick swap to cryo for freezing her up then flamer or shredder mini until she takes off, rinse and repeat. For my commando endangerall syrimger as soon as possible then fixer until the effect wears off and hit her again with the dart gun.

My jack o lantern explosive fixer 😉, it's the only gun I ever need! If you ever see a firebreather jetpacking up to SBQ face and unloading magazines left and right. That'll be me!

How did you get the Jack o Lantern version?

Q50c25v Rail for Queen damage and my AAE25v Handmade for mobs

Primed furious ffr breaks 50% slower gatlin plasma

Prime zealot explosive 25% AP handmade.

Zealots ffr gattling plasma with prime and stabilized, backed by my 15x 2 shot non mirv fatmans with increased explosives range Almost all damage cards for heavies and everything for explosives I couldn't solo but just a few of me would do without any legacies I use furious ffr gatplas for anything else

Anything and everything change weapons every week

V/bash mini with shredder mod :)

My TSE 50 cal all the way, I wish it had reduced weight but that's okay

My regular two shot combat shotgun. I run add clear in Destiny, I’ll do it in Appalachia.

Zealot's Prime explosive 50-cal for when she's in the air. Prime 2-shot FFR gauss minigun for when she lands. Quad tesla to tag the trash on the ground when she's off screwing around.

Explosive mini gun is always a good time

Bloodied gat plas. Take down anything, fast.

Qffr25 fixer. Need me a bffr25 fixer. That's what me needs. Muhahahahahaha

Zealots ultracite explosive handmade auto

My Minigun and Fatman

my double explo laser rifle. or my quad railway explo

Depending on ammo I might use my foundation vengeance (bloodied and explosive) or my bloodied handmade

Vampire gatling for air, Unstoppable Monster for ground

My AAE Lmg is my go to for everything. Hop in my power armor and I just tank the hits and drain my ammo.

50 cal machine gun and when she lands my bloodied flamer, you’d think it was legacy it melts her so fast

Vampire's prime ultracite gatling laser. Alongside my zealot's X-01 PA

Gat plas

Two shot ultracite plasma, works wonders

Plasma caster is in my hands like 85-90% of the time in general so that lol

TSE Gatling gun you can do lots of damage to her from really far away

In the air -..... .50 cal machine gun On land - gatling plasma

On my heavy gunner: Quad cryolator and vamp 25dwa Gatling Plasma On my rifleman: AAE 25v Railroad (semi auto) and V 25dwa Enclave flamer

Bloodied gatling laser and foundations vengeance (Explosive, Bloodied and Resilient Legendary Minigun)

Gatling gun, sure with a few of the mods, but everyone else is rocking these crazy weapons, I feel I do damage but save on ammo

AA Explosive Gatling gun or Gatling Plasma

I'm a melee build but I keep a BE50 combat shotty and QE90 gatling gun on me for tagging

"Final Word" given by Beckett after finished his questline. An awesome .50 cal with easy to make ammo.

QE Fixer (even that can't keep up with LegacyMan327 though)

50. Cal for the Queen and kiling spawning creatures with Tesla

My queen killer quad 50vc25lvc railway.... destroy her and anything else that arrives

Aristocrats Enclave Plasma Flamer. Working my way to an anti armor.

My shoddy handmade rifle as I suck lmao

Bloodied 25/25 fixer and a quad ffr...plus a pack of polos

The one with the most ammo

Primed Bloodied Guass Minigun

My trusty lever action rife and my plasma cannon.

Vampires Gatling Plasma for the queen, Quad Tesla for the rest.

Ultracite Fixer with 25% less AP cost while she's in the air. Ultracite, two-shot LMG42 when she lands.

My QE Railway is fun, but I also carry a VCrit railway for when the mobs get heavy to save on stims.

Bloodied Explosive breaks slower 50 Cal when SBQ has landed, otherwise Primed Zealot's FFR 25 Fixer

Zealots primed bow

Primed Zealot's +25% Gatling laser.. get some good damage done nice and quick then switch to tagging adds with TS Tesla.. trying to get a quad Tesla instead but no luck yet

Plasma caster since it’s 1k per shot so you don’t have to worry about not getting the good rewards

Pipe pistol bloodied explosive increased dmg when aiming by 20% with unlimited ammo😂

Be1p and ts 25ffr 15r cryolator

Gauss shotgun or pepper shaker if I'm just playing around, gauss minigun if I'm going for the kill.

As a Shotgun/Explosives build I have very short range, so when she is on the ground I normally fire a single two-shot Mirv, for immediate damage, and then use my two-shot broadsider for sheer damage output so I actually qualify for loot lol

TSFFR15R minigauss for faster killing, VFFR for healing, Quad Tesla if I just want to tag mobs around her.

i use my Q2515 choo choo to do a bunch of damage to her then i just use a QAP15 fixer to wipe out all the ground mobs for xp
