The way Fallout 4 handles unique weapons is a significant departure from the ways of Fallout 3 or New Vegas. There are still unique weapons you can earn from quests or find in the world, but they’ve largely been replaced by Legendary weapons with random effects that drop from tougher foes.

Can You Beat Fallout 4 With Only Legendary Weapons? (in text form)

I ignored Codsworth, named myself, Legengary, and started assigning SPECIAL points. Because all weapons types can be used, there isn’t one specific stat that’s more important than others. I still drained Charisma and put a lot of points into Intelligence to level up faster, but the rest are pretty spread out. I used my invisible legs to push a tricycle into the river as an experiment to see if it would still be there 200 years later, saw the nuclear mushroom, took a nap, had a nightmare, woke up, used my patented close the doors technique to avoid the roaches, and escaped the vault. I forgot to see if the tricycle was still there, maxed out Intelligence, and got to work scrapping every object known to man. Now’s the time to explain what qualifies as a Legendary weapon.

For the purposes of this challenge, a Legendary Weapon is anything that has a legendary weapon effect, but they don’t necessarily need to have a prefix to be a legendary weapon. Kellogg’s Pistol refills your Action Points when you get a Critical Hit, which is the Relentless legendary effect. It doesn’t have Relentless in its name but is still a legendary weapon. If you happen to disagree with me, that’s okay. Feel free to dislike the video.

After scrapping damn near everything I could find, I got to work laying down all the wood poles in the world. Almost 1000 of them, to level myself up a few times. It took several minutes to do and leveled me up about 4 times. The first few perks I picked were like my first wife, useful to have on occasion but you wouldn’t be losing much by not taking them. Next came the task of getting my paws on a Legendary weapon. They’re usually more powerful than your standard weapons which makes them not the easiest thing in the world to obtain. I figured the smartest option would be to work with the Brotherhood early on. Completing the ArcJet quest gets you a Legendary Weapon. On my way to the police station, I encountered Wolfgang and convinced him to open fire on Trudy, hoping that they’d all end each other to give me something to laugh about. God wasn’t thrilled with my quest for blood and sought to smite us all with heavy doses of radiation as punishment for my evil ways.

Danse and nobody else with a name worth mentioning fought off the ghouls outside the police station, I ransacked their pockets for Chuck E Cheese tokens, Danse and I waddled our way to Arcjet, and the nothing continued. I’m effectively a soundboard at this point, how many times can I say the same things over and over again. Why are you even watching this? You already know what the answer is. Danse ended everything in his path until we got to the Reactor area and I did something… stupid. I activated the rocket test and ran outside the blast room before it went off. In an intriguing twist, standing 10ft away from a rocket propulsion test turns your body into something that resembles melted ice cream tossed into a forest fire. One time I missed the jump to safety, so I took the blast like a man and ended like a mouse. A few attempts later, I managed to get to safety, Danse unfortunately didn’t turn into paste, I snagged the Deep Range Transmitter, we left Arcjet, and I got my first Legendary Weapon

    "why are you even watching this? You already know how It ends" It's not about the destination, its about how you got there.

    “Now the real game begins.” This quote will forever be in my head as long as I live. GodSpeed Paul MittenSquad…
  • @spiderslayerd
    Rip to a real legend, he defined the challenge genre on YouTube, and has some of the funniest commentary on the platform
  • @acidriptide4637
    I’ve revisited this video every year since it was uploaded because it’s so good. It was the first video I ever watched of you. I heard what happened and wanted to pay my respects. Godspeed Mitten Squad. May you rest in peace.
  • @nomonoodle
    Is anyone else throughly disappointed we didn’t get to see if the bike was still there
  • @crook2944
    RIP Paul, you truly were legendary
  • I'm actually doing this challenge right now, and I found four legendary synths in Fort Hagen. THEY ALL DROPPED ARMOR
  • @gonzocat5858
    The best legendary weapon is the never ending double barrel. It fires comically fast and you never have to reload it so it’s a close range machine gun
  • @ryanbolson23
    "Why are you even watching this? You already know how it ends." He's become self aware, shut him down and start again.
  • @Smokin_Choochang
    You gave us so many memories, and we thank you Joe. Gone but never forgotten. RIP Mitten Squad ❤️
  • I know it's old, now but unless we get a post announcing it, I feel there is no better place to write this. Rest in peace Joseph 'paul' Robert Wilson. You were the greatest challenge runner with ome of the best comedic timing accross all of youtube. Your videos never failed to make me smile every time I watched them. And I simply can't put into words how sorely you will be missed. I have nothing but complete and utter sympathy for his family in this trying time so close to Christmas, but I hope they know that in this ethereal being called the Internet he was loved by so, so many. I would be lying if I said I didn't hope this was all a mistake and for Paul to suddenly announce on twitter that we're a bunch of idiots and he's fine, and still getting better. But life simply couldn't be that kind to this glorious man. Rest in peace Paul, the greatest thing a person can do is to bring others joy, and you've brought so much to so many. You, were truly the mightiest of the Dragon born, the greatest of the lone Wanderer's, the quickest of the courier's and the best of the sole survivor's. This, is where your true game, finally begins.
  • @Rayzorzic
    You know he definitely only did this to be named Legengary
  • @lasagaeater6891
    "There was not a hamster's chance in a garbage disposal" This is now my new favorite phrase
  • @ballsmcgee7783
    Rest in peace Paul. This video will always be my introduction to you, and my favorite video of yours.
  • @dragonctd1
    3:01 "I took the blast like a man, and died like a mouse" I can't stop laughing at this
  • @AB-nv7bz
    I’m surprised he didn’t just loot till he could buy overseers guardian. That gun is so op
  • @moonsaves
    Mitten - "Fusion cells are stupid expensive" Also Mitten - "Charisma is a dump stat"
  • @alexh_7343
    Paul was the best legendary weapon we could've asked for. You will be missed, mittensquad will live on strong.
  • @ZX-Gear
    I just came here to pay my respects. I never thought that one of THE Challenge Youtubers I loved watching would leave us. Paul really gave us some KINO content playing through Fallout and his various jokes always land with his dry delivery. I still cannot believe this. Rest in Peace,Paul. You are sorely missed.
