A Gatling laser, for those who are using a minigun and want even more carnage.Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide p.107

The ultracite Gatling laser is a heavy gun in Fallout 76.

Characteristics[]

A Gatling laser modified with ultracite crystal conduits, the gun is a large, two-handed weapon consisting of four rotating barrels that fire yellow-green laser pulses through two lenses. It uses fusion cores for ammunition. Each fusion core provides 500 shots. It has a high rate of fire but low accuracy, making it more useful for highly concentrated groups of enemies.

The Gatling laser has more damage and accuracy than a tri-barrel minigun, so this is a viable choice should one desire more accuracy and damage per magazine. Its ammo is considerably more cost-efficient than a minigun's, so this is also good for player characters on a budget that doesn't accommodate for 5mm rounds, but makes fusion cores affordable.

Compared to the Gatling laser, the ultracite Gatling laser has a higher damage per shot. This is in contrast to standard laser guns where the ultracite laser gun tends to have lower base damage but a higher rate of fire than the standard model.

Can be crafted from the plan, which is a rare drop from Cranberry Bog events.

Notes[]

  • Reloading behavior can lead to an inventory full of partially-used cores if frequently swapping between weapons or manually reloading.
  • The weapon is affected by the Grounded mutation.
  • Like all other weapons, crafting an ultracite Gatling laser creates contextual ammo for the weapon, which in this case is Fusion cores. This means that crafting ultracite Gatling lasers can be a cheaper alternative to crafting fusion cores manually, which requires an assortment of flux.
