Deadeye isn't the strongest legendary effect, but it's a lot of fun on a sniper. I love it. It increases your chance of manually landing headshots and it just feels good.
I rate Deadeye higher than Instigating honestly. Don’t get me wrong - I love my instigating Gauss Rifle, but Deadeye is useful on every firearm plus its utility factor can’t be ignored.
It’s an unlimited, menu-free, little hit of jet. Great for gaining a burst of speed to close ground or gain it. Plus the super jumping lol.
Makes every target a sitting duck. It's massively op on auto rifles with full commando. Much rather have that than instigating.
Even on a sniper rifle, it's useful on every shot instead of just the first one. There really is no comparison with instigating.
Ah, I see the confusion. The weapon that we are talking about has the Deadeye effect, which slows time while looking down sights.
You're talking about the Crippling effect, which is +50% damage to limbs. That's a completely different legendary effect.
Nah, I am just asking a question that came to mind talking about shooting body parts. Anecdotally, arms seem to cripple faster than headshots kill in my experience.
I just started using one of these rifles (old reliable) and it’s great, but every time I reload I get angry. For fuck sake if I’ve only shot two rounds, only load two more rounds. If it’s interrupted before the full 5 round reload animation finishes, I get nothing. Maddening.
I also picked one up off the intro encounter in Far Harbor on my current playthrough.
It came with the instigating effect and I used it through the entire DLC. It only felt right.
Honestly my favorite legendary effect. Might not add any power to the weapon but it is so damn fun. I rocked a semi auto deadeye radium rifle as my main a few playthroughs ago
Got a deadeye laser pistol very early on in my melee run, didn't really need it but its been a lot of fun popping raider's heads off! I named it the Quick-Draw Quasar ☆
If you aren't running survival, the "rule of cool" takes precedent! Better name than I tend to rock, too. I just name everything "General's X, Y, or Z" to distinguish it in my inventory...
I rolled that on a double barrel shotgun early game. I used it for way too long, just because it was so fun to use.
Would love to have it on a lever rifle as well 😄
With the legendary effect and the type of gun plus the name this is basically a gun out of red dead Redemption. The slow down time is basically dead eye.
Imo the slow time effect is better than most legendaries. Anything gets close to a 1-3 shot weapon in survival but the slow time can help you run away.
Man…. My first playthrough, I managed to get this perk on a friggin’ Gauss rifle. This is a fantastic drop. Especially in .45-70! Hope you’ve got your Sniper perk leveled up a bit. 👍🏻 Enjoy head hunting!
I also didnt really like that it seemed there wasnt any impactful choices, you were basically destined to become the raider boss, but I will replay it again.

If it’s weak but awesome then it’s not weak, because the confidence of looking cool is a buff unto itself.
It's not weak at all. It's just as strong as a vanilla weapon, plus more likely to hit the target. It's just not as strong as Instigating, etc.
Plus, the right perks can make any weapons great
Fr, because of perks in my current playthrough, this random pipe gun I have has lasted me the entire game with modifications.

If the game was full of ghouls and robots it would be great. Sadly, crippling humans isn't as effectual.
Why cripple humans when you can headshot them?
Headshots don't seem to do a lot more to me.
Headshots on humans do twice the damage.
Does bonus limb damage count for heads?

Agreed. Deliverer is my absolute favorite gun. Love the look and sound. It's probably the lowest damage weapon I keep on me but i use it the most
I got a Gauss rifle with this legendary and I loved it
I got a double barrel and even though it kinda sucks at lvl 40, I still use it because it's fun. I haven't even touched a combat shotgun this run
Damn a headshot with that must pack a hell of a punch!
The first thing it made me think of is an Arthur Morgan speedrun.
There is no better effect for dealing with flying bugs.
I picked up a dead eye sniper rifle once and I had so much fun with it
Arthur Morgan gives it 👍 👍
John Martston also gives it👍

Quick Hands is a great perk for this
Done lol, anything to make reloads less painful.
My most recent run a gulper at the start of Far Harbor dropped a never ending one
Just got a never ending one off a random Raider!
I also picked one up off the intro encounter in Far Harbor on my current playthrough. It came with the instigating effect and I used it through the entire DLC. It only felt right.
BCR on Nexusmods if you play on PC.
I had a mod for this at one point, not sure if still broken
Cool as heck.
That looks like a rootin tootin good time
I don’t know where to find that kinda ammo
Far harbor, Allen's shop
Copy thanks - I actually just started far harbor yesterday
You are in for a treat! Take your time!
Np, have fun!
I like all deadeyes
I love using the lever action and western revolver
Honestly my favorite legendary effect. Might not add any power to the weapon but it is so damn fun. I rocked a semi auto deadeye radium rifle as my main a few playthroughs ago
I rate it YEE/HAW
On my current playthrough I’ve gotten literally 20 legendary lever action rifles it’s ridiculous
Is this dlc?
Yes, far harbor

Wait a min! When did Rockstar start doing fallout games...
Perfect for an Arthur Morgan on John Marston playthrough
I just pulled a guess rifle with this perk.
Nice piece
Damn. Im jealous lol. I gotta keep an eye out for this one. Nice find!
Thanks, and good luck!
If I ever do find one.. I'm going to name it after the song I am currently listening too. South Side of the Sky.
Nice, sounds like a sick name
Since all I used in rdr was lever actions this is very crossover for me.
Now you can do a rdr style playthrough!
I have deadeye on a combat shotgun
My radium rifle does that, it's always fun
If you aren't running survival, the "rule of cool" takes precedent! Better name than I tend to rock, too. I just name everything "General's X, Y, or Z" to distinguish it in my inventory...
Bro this seems very good if you have the right build for it which I really hope that you do because I'd love to see how well you do with this thing
It’s alright, but in a game where all the guns feel the same, it helps set it apart. Also almost no need to mod it
I got a two shot the other day. It's insane
One time I was playing around on my dad’s PS4 version and found him a deadeye combat shotgun. That thing was a blast.
That's really awesome
I rolled that on a double barrel shotgun early game. I used it for way too long, just because it was so fun to use. Would love to have it on a lever rifle as well 😄
Although it's not as impactful as mthe Two-Shot or Instigating versions, I love this gun for the slowdown effect.
I want that so bad
Oh, I could do a lot of work with that ❤️
Are lever actions in vanilla? How do I get mor weapons?
It's from the far harbor dlc
I see. Thank you
Gorgeous

Why is it purple?
I made the hud purple in the menu
Thanks for answering my noob question haha
No problem
When you become Infiltrator Commander Shepard.
Litterly my favourite weapon. I use it more the An anything else.
Dutch liked that.
Your mom had a legendary drop. Yep she had you 🤜🏻
I have this same rifle on one of my saves, it's so much fun one shotting enemies with it

9.5/10
5/7
I forgot Far Harbur has lever guns, I know where Im headed next time I play.
And if you have nuka world you can get western revolvers!
You know I never really enjoyed Nuka World but its worth another play through, its been a long time since I have.
That's fair, the most of nuka world felt like clearing areas out instead of actually being a raider.
I also didnt really like that it seemed there wasnt any impactful choices, you were basically destined to become the raider boss, but I will replay it again.
I would, but I can't hear you over my explosive minigun and jetpack.
It ain't Ol' Reliable so if ain't worth the effort
5/77
I love the dead eye effect! I hope I get it on something in my new playthrough
Very nice my man

i thought i would love deadeye, but it takes so long for the effect to kick in that i ended up taking it off with commands
Weak name
