Nuclear Winter battle-royale Fallout 76 unused content Heavy Guns weigh 90% less. 00479B22

Affected weapons[]

This perk modifies the following weapons, as well as their unique variants:

Notes[]

  • Due to the fact that Bear Arms only affects the weapons themselves, and heavy weapon ammo is usually also heavy, it might be beneficial to take one of the ammo-weight-reducing perks: Bandolier for "Ballistic" ammo, Batteries Included for "Energy" ammo, and/or Ordnance Express for "Explosive" ammo.
  • Prior to patch 1.0.6.0, the M79 and auto grenade launcher did not benefit from this perk.[1]
