The heating coil is a weapon mod in Fallout 4.
Effects[]
When equipped on a power fist and super sledge, the weapon appears as having a metal coil glowing with heat attached to the pneumatic battering ram (power fist) or wrapped around the striking head (super sledge). It will inflict 20 points of energy damage in addition to its physical damage per hit.
Production[]
The recipe for this weapon mod varies depending on the weapon for which it is made:
| Materials: | Requirements: | Produces: | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
Adhesive (4-6) Asbestos (3-4) Circuitry (3-5) Copper (11-7) | Blacksmith (2-3) | Heating coil (1) |
| Weapon | Blacksmith | Adhesive | Asbestos | Circuitry | Copper |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Power fist | 3 | 6 | 4 | 5 | 11 |
| Super sledge | 2 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 7 |
Location[]
The heating coil modification cannot be found in the game world. It may appear equipped on power fists and super sledges that spawn with super mutants and (rarely) Gunners as well as those sold by weapons vendors such as Arturo Rodriguez at the market in Diamond City, KL-E-0 in Goodneighbor, or the traveling merchant Cricket. It can also be crafted at a weapons workbenchh.
Notes[]
The super sledge variant requires less material to craft while having a caps value that is higher than the power fist variant.
