The Winchester P94 plasma rifle is an energy weapon in Fallout 2.
Background[]
The P94 is a bulky, industrial-grade energy caster powered by microfusion cells. The superheated plasma bolt forms in a special chamber then sent down a superconducting barrel and stabilized by electromagnetic claws upon exiting it.
Characteristics[]
With its stats unchanged from the predecessor, the Winchester P94 remains a potent energy weapon in Fallout 2, with the same drawback of a relatively short range. It averages 47.5 Hit Points per non-critical attack on unarmored targets, and 21.5 HP on medium-armored targets, sometimes exceeding 200 HP in a good Critical Hit.
Variants[]
A superior version of this weapon exists, with a hotwired plasma bolt chamber, called the turbo plasma rifle.
Locations[]
- Carried by some super mutants.
- Carried by some Enclave members in Enclave patrols.
- In an ammo crate the Sierra Army Depot's armory on level two.
- One in Navarro underground, in the armory.
- Carried by a few Enclave soldiers in Navarro.
- One in an ammo crate on the Enclave Oil Rig's armory.
- One in a locker on the Enclave Oil Rig's trap room.
Notes[]
- In Fallout 3, the in-game name "plasma rifle" was assigned to another model of plasma weapon. Elder Lyons mentions the P94 when talking about the Brotherhood Outcasts.[1]
- The plasma rifle was renamed the plasma caster when it appeared in Fallout: New Vegas.
- A similar but distinct model of plasma caster is obtainable in Fallout 76.
Behind the scenes[]

- ↑ Lone Wanderer: "I thought the protection of humanity was a part of the Brotherhood's oaths."
Owyn Lyons: "Only in a very broad sense. The Brotherhood's oaths are to protect humanity's progress, but not necessarily every human. The Outcasts - and members of the Brotherhood in other places - consider it a waste to protect most people. 'After all,' they say, 'everyone knows how to make another human, but the secrets to making a P94 Plasma Rifle are all but lost.'"
