The alien blaster is a weapon of extraterrestrial origin found in Fallout.
Characteristics[]
The alien blaster is a weapon of great extremes. It has the highest damage-per-action-point of all single-shot weapons in Fallout, as well as the second-highest ammunition capacity of all single-shot weapons. It is also highly accurate. Offsetting these strengths is its extremely short range of 10 hexes, the shortest of all ranged weapons in Fallout.
This weapon can do the highest single-shot damage possible in either game—a perfectly lucky critical to the eyes will do a crushing 360 Hit Points of damage (381 HP if the player character has taken two ranks of Bonus Ranged Damage) -- being thus capable of killing anything save the end bosses with one shot. Such hits are extremely rare, occurring only at the top end of the gun's massive damage variation, however, an average eye critical on an unarmored target will still do an impressive 159 HP of damage. The alien blaster can be fired for 2 action points with Fast Shot and the Bonus Rate of Fire perk.
Despite its alien origin, this weapon commands the very high price of 10,000 caps.
Locations[]
The alien blaster can be found in the "Alien Ship" special encounter.
