Shredder is a weapon mod for the minigun in Fallout 4.
Effects[]
When applied to a minigun, the shredder modification will allow the minigun to apply melee damage in close proximity to the target while the barrels are spinning. The damage applied will increase by investing in the Basher perk. Using the shredder modification will drain AP while not in power armor.

Notes[]
- The shredder modification's damage only scales off of the Basher perk. Big Leagues, Heavy Gunner, Rooted, Lone Wanderer rank 3, and Bloody Mess will not increase its damage.
- Increases to melee critical damage will also not apply to its critical damage, including Grognak the Barbarian magazines or the Melee bobblehead. However, Better Criticals will, as its critical damage increases are generic.
- The accelerated barrel mod will also not scale the shredder's DPS, as it hits at a constant rate of 20 times per second, independent of rate of fire or barrel modifications.
- It does not scale off of percent-based damage increases from chems such as Psycho or Overdrive. However, it will benefit from the generic critical chance gained from Overdrive.
