1. Enclave Scout Rifleman Build

Not your average sneak commando build; this is as effective as the flamer builds, but with stealth. Maximize VATS and deal rapid damage output with the unique lime green flames. Adding color to destruction never looked more aesthetically pleasing.

2. Blazing Flamer

Burning radioactive creatures and watching all the ashes cling against the charred flesh of your enemies is better than bathing in their blood. In most video games that include killing monsters, there is a flamethrower of some sort. Even if you don’t use it as a long-term weapon, you still pick it up and run the ammo out just for kicks. This flamer, however, is too much power for one vault dweller. You will want to rock this build indefinitely.
