The Final Judgment is a unique weapon in Fallout 4.

Characteristics[]

Final Judgment is a unique Gatling laser that bears the "rapid" legendary effect. It is the personal weapon of Arthur Maxson who carries it into battle during the quests Airship Down, Rockets' Red Glare, Ad Victoriam, and The Nuclear Option for the Brotherhood of Steel.

Due to the way the game calculates bonus percentages, the Rapid affix massively boosts the damage output of a Gatling laser outfitted with the charging barrels mod. Instead of increasing the 16.5% rate of fire that is left of the standard value by another 25%, resulting in 20.125%, the prefix simply adds the two values for a result of 41.5% of the regular rate of fire. This, combined with the quadrupled per-shot damage the charging barrels provide, makes Final Judgement one of the most powerful weapons in the game as it deals extremely high energy damage with a quick rate of fire, has remarkable accuracy and the most cost-efficient ammunition type of any weapon in the game.
