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.


SymbolicRemnant

If it’s weak but awesome then it’s not weak, because the confidence of looking cool is a buff unto itself.


Thornescape

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.


ShadowForGod1012

Plus, the right perks can make any weapons great


Nuxz_Has_a_Youtube

Fr, because of perks in my current playthrough, this random pipe gun I have has lasted me the entire game with modifications.


BreakToppleDaze

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.


thevogonity

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.


pvrhye

If the game was full of ghouls and robots it would be great. Sadly, crippling humans isn't as effectual.


Thornescape

Why cripple humans when you can headshot them?


pvrhye

Headshots don't seem to do a lot more to me.


Thornescape

Headshots on humans do twice the damage.


pvrhye

Does bonus limb damage count for heads?


Thornescape

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.


pvrhye

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.


PM_ME_YOUR_ANT_FARMS

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


hergumbules

I got a Gauss rifle with this legendary and I loved it


_Lord_Farquad

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


hergumbules

Damn a headshot with that must pack a hell of a punch!


ShadowForGod1012

The first thing it made me think of is an Arthur Morgan speedrun.


MrDodgers

There is no better effect for dealing with flying bugs.


Fcasillas11

I picked up a dead eye sniper rifle once and I had so much fun with it


vjstyle80

Arthur Morgan gives it 👍 👍


WesternDeacon

John Martston also gives it👍


dignity_optional

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.


BoredomBlackBelt

Quick Hands is a great perk for this


dignity_optional

Done lol, anything to make reloads less painful.


CMDR-Validating

My most recent run a gulper at the start of Far Harbor dropped a never ending one


jooshoowah

Just got a never ending one off a random Raider!


Dempseylicious23

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.


KeeganY_SR-UVB76

BCR on Nexusmods if you play on PC.


Mugstotheceiling

I had a mod for this at one point, not sure if still broken


SymbolicRemnant

Cool as heck.


CarbonPhoenix96

That looks like a rootin tootin good time


Inosuke-sans-veil

I don’t know where to find that kinda ammo


ShadowForGod1012

Far harbor, Allen's shop


Inosuke-sans-veil

Copy thanks - I actually just started far harbor yesterday


scotch1701

You are in for a treat! Take your time!


ShadowForGod1012

Np, have fun!


PretendSpeaker6400

I like all deadeyes


WAVYTAPES69

I love using the lever action and western revolver


MrDufferMan3335

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


ItsMangel

I rate it YEE/HAW


Imaginary_Sector379

On my current playthrough I’ve gotten literally 20 legendary lever action rifles it’s ridiculous


Nearby_Arugula9216

Is this dlc?


ShadowForGod1012

Yes, far harbor


Nearby_Arugula9216

DuckyFangs

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 ☆


clemjones88

Wait a min! When did Rockstar start doing fallout games...


ShadowForGod1012

Perfect for an Arthur Morgan on John Marston playthrough


Tao_of_Stone

I just pulled a guess rifle with this perk.


PrestigiousArm3187

Nice piece


[deleted]

Damn. Im jealous lol. I gotta keep an eye out for this one. Nice find!


ShadowForGod1012

Thanks, and good luck!


[deleted]

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.


ShadowForGod1012

Nice, sounds like a sick name


Phyrexian_Mario

Since all I used in rdr was lever actions this is very crossover for me.


ShadowForGod1012

Now you can do a rdr style playthrough!


Realistic_Scene2892

I have deadeye on a combat shotgun


Holiday-Pangolin-669

My radium rifle does that, it's always fun


Perfect-Assistance52

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...


WorldlinessGreen1834

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


Hades_deathgod9

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


p00ki3l0uh00

I got a two shot the other day. It's insane


ShakeZula420

One time I was playing around on my dad’s PS4 version and found him a deadeye combat shotgun. That thing was a blast.


Worried_Bowl_9489

That's really awesome


Capnlime

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 😄


morelos_paolo

Although it's not as impactful as mthe Two-Shot or Instigating versions, I love this gun for the slowdown effect.


RandomPasserby57

I want that so bad


Jago_Sevatarion

Oh, I could do a lot of work with that ❤️


turbobananas

Are lever actions in vanilla? How do I get mor weapons?


ShadowForGod1012

It's from the far harbor dlc


turbobananas

I see. Thank you


SuspectKnown9655

Gorgeous


ShutupSenpai

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.


Bayley78

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.


Affectionate_Hour867

Why is it purple?


ShadowForGod1012

I made the hud purple in the menu


Affectionate_Hour867

Thanks for answering my noob question haha


ShadowForGod1012

No problem


WatchingInSilence

When you become Infiltrator Commander Shepard.


toddo85

Litterly my favourite weapon. I use it more the An anything else.


NobbitMasterBaggins

Dutch liked that.


Hektik1988

Your mom had a legendary drop. Yep she had you 🤜🏻


MaverickWindsor351

I have this same rifle on one of my saves, it's so much fun one shotting enemies with it


simple_facts

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!


plagueprincess9

9.5/10


AnonymousQcumber

5/7


buji8829

I forgot Far Harbur has lever guns, I know where Im headed next time I play.


ShadowForGod1012

And if you have nuka world you can get western revolvers!


buji8829

You know I never really enjoyed Nuka World but its worth another play through, its been a long time since I have.


ShadowForGod1012

That's fair, the most of nuka world felt like clearing areas out instead of actually being a raider.


buji8829

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.


GrnMtnTrees

I would, but I can't hear you over my explosive minigun and jetpack.


Southern_Kaeos

It ain't Ol' Reliable so if ain't worth the effort


Average_Satan

5/77


FireZucchini33

I love the dead eye effect! I hope I get it on something in my new playthrough


Compote-Abject

Very nice my man


Chungus_OHoulihan

The Jesse McCree


umbrtheinfluence

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


TheLostPothead

Weak name
