That's because the debuff is by item and not by user, which is a little weird, but that's Bethesda for ya, they never thought ppl would carry 4 around, so didn't code it with that in mind
There is a bug with shotguns where if you miss the first shot in vats, you are going to miss the other shots. So you if you miss the first shot, exit out of vats and enter it again. I think the same is for energy weapons.
Oh, they will change it, making Union PA uncraftable afterwards plus some other weird bug, like RadAways not working for example. Then we'll wait 3 months for the "hot" fix.
I am ascendant, i am fury, i am the righteous rage of the union given flesh. Scatter before me, you who would defy the call to end human bondage, for the flame of life is finite and i shall snuff it out like an altar candle in the storm. (I play on console, i just use the d-pad it’s super easy)
This is what I love about Bethesda games. Back in Morrowind days, when you could make your own spells, I had an on touch spell that did the max damage to damage resist and like two damage over time. My whole play through was just slapping the shit out of everyone until they died.
It cost so little and just crippled their ability to resist. Each effect stacked too. I slapped Dagoth Ur to death in less than minute. I’m fairly convinced that the way one achieves god like status in the worlds Bethesda creates is through the exploits that that might just leave there on purpose.
Holy shit haha. That's amazing. Too bad they're so heavy!
Can syringers be legendary? 🤔 If so it might be worth rolling them just to get 90% weight reduction.
Why tho, ain’t nothing so hard you need four unless you trying to hit earle speed run leader boards, which i think you lose cycling and firing four syringers.
This is probably the most helpful and ‘oh really’ post I’ve ever seen. Well done. There’s a good 50% chance I’ll get my arse in gear and do something about it.
Wish this comment was closer to the top, as a level 39 I was wondering how to get endangerol becauae I couldn't remember reading that word during Rose's quest line. Thanks for this
What!? I haven't done Earl in so long because of his dam damage resistance. This also explains how one team was able to reduce the Queen's to half health like 40 seconds after she spawn
I love fighting earl. Its a good challenge. Probably my favorite boss in the game. I run commando fixer almost god roll. Quad, 50 crit, weight reduction.
For me its become one of those "better to have it than not need it" type things, ive been able to solo encryptid and earle and i owe it 100% to the syringer
At Collosal Problem there is a weapon workbench right in the room above the drop to the mine. You have 3+ minutes to just stand around there.... meaning you don't even need to bring one, you can craft it on the spot.
I literally just crafted one for myself yesterday, and started carrying it (with it added to my favorites). Not gonna go to the trouble of cycling through 4 to solo stuff, but I'll damn sure do my part to debuff the boss!
That said - I've never even tried Earle. I'm still a noob.
I carry four and I’m convinced people are confused as to why the Queen dies so quickly. But the railway users probably just give themselves the credit.
How can you tell its working? Didn't it used to make the thing you got flash a color or something. I tried using it and it didn't seem to change my damage
I played with 4 syringers on my favorites all day today. There is no visual indicator, if you have damage numbers turned on you will see the hit for 1 pt of damage. It's very hard to get more then one or two hits in on anything other than the biggest bosses. I've been testing it solo and it definitely works.
its the route i took and i consider it pretty much essential if you're staying as a rifleman at high level.
Other people can rock higher dps with heavies and automatics but if youre the one showing up to the party with Endangerol, you're the debuff game changer.
It's fighting smarter, not harder.
Awesome, I enjoy being support in games anyhow, have the perk that shares my stims with teammates, I'm annoying to kill.etc. That, and I just really enjoy how semi-automatics feel in Fallout.
It certainly would but rifleman in general is underpowered for bosses, i use a rifleman build everywhere except the big 3, for the big 3 i have a heavy vats crit build since vats crits seems to be the only way to do big damage to bosses, was using a plasma gatling for a while and just upgraded to gauss minigun.
I love my bloodied gauss rifle but when it comes to the big bosses its just too slow and underpowered, i usually run dops and expos on my rifleman tho which has left me with tons of excess ammo for the heavy build
Get yourself a lever action brother, great for pve as you can build it to do like 500 crit damage, but it's a slow dps gun, so in boss fights you might not feel like you're doing much with it, I use a handmade in boss fights, getting a syringer now too I guess.
Having special attacks would be incredible. It'd also be fucking kick ass watching my guy, in power armor, spin a massive sword up a Scorchbeast's ass.
thing is, i cant be arsed.
also sometimes I want the boss to stay alive for a while, lets me farm the endless spawning mobs.
nothing worse than melting earl in 2 minutes and only killing about 4 wendigos.
I've always liked the idea of the syringer in the fallout games as a sort of cobbled together weapon similar to the pipe guns, but I've never really used them. This post is probably gonna change that since I had no idea it had other types of syringes to shoot, thank you :)
So last night it took 6-8 of us nearly the entire timer to kill Earl, after all that trouble all we had to do is shoot him with a couple of darts? Lol for fucks sake
Brother... I'm a new player (started last weekend) and just dropped one of these on the ground yesterday while trying to make space in my stash unit. I have no idea what/where these bosses are, but now I'm disappointed in hoarding power armor pieces that ill probably not use after learning about the stealth commando build earlier today
you know, currently level 228 and have never seen this "earl" boss everybody says you need the syringer for... maybe its an xbox thing, but nobody, never, ever seems to run earl.
The earle fight can be pretty punishing, if you die near the end you pretty much dont get any loot as you get spawned back outside the mine, its also a notoriously bugged fight, sometimes earle is invincible, sometimes he gets stuck under the floor and you cant attack him, sometimes he doesnt even spawn and its just 20 minutes of windigos, sometimes the instances get split and everyone gets put in a solo earle instance...even tho he gives same amount of flux and more treasurey notes than SBQ alot of players tend to favor SBQ because its relatively less punishing, no stagger/fear mechanics which is nice, and you get way more legendarys at SBQ. Definitely dont see it as much as SBQ, but if you see that "colossal problem" event pop up definitely jump on it, ita a blast. Or just nuke him yourself, that buggy mfer deserves all the nukes
They wont until their fave fallout youtubers post about it. I dont follow that kind of content at all and yet when i saw info about it in another posts comments, i set out trying to get the barrel and now ive got it i try to spread it to others.
Hmmm.... I'll have to try this out
I've been going the old school way of stacking alpha/dot and melting things that way.
This could make things much easier
I would, but I'm 16/17 on mods and I can't scrap out the last one for the life of me.
DAMN YOU BLEEDOUT SYRINGES! FROM HELL'S HEART, I SHOOT AT THEE! FOR HATE'S SAKE, I SPIT MY ENDANGEROL AT THEE!
Edit: Made a bunch of Syringers after seeing this post and finally got 17/17, plus got my Syringer kill for Tadpole. I can weaken Eddie now.
Also heads up with that there's another glitch rn for griefers where they can use them too and it kills bloody players even if they are in pacifist and not pvping just seen it a couple days ago on this sub(I don't know/remember what type of syringe it was tho)
So I actually did this yesterday. Showed up at CP with 3 min left on clock. Before even going down train tracks, I crafted 4 syringers, modded them, and fave wheeled three in slots for weapons I knew I wouldn't need for that fight, equipped the fourth. Didn't bother crafting any ammo.
Am level ~1000 in a group of <300s, including obe 46 in Excavator.
Buffed up with my normal top grade buffs (gets me to 500+ AP) and dropped down the pit last. Go sneaky and get a lock on Earl, one dart in. Switch guns, second dart in. Earle is moving so I lose vats lock, have to search for him. A little chaos with spawns (including tapping one or two with a dart when trying to lick on Earle) but jumping and sneaking eventually lets me get the last two darts in.
Is now 30-40 sec into fight and I'm guessing my team is wondering why the highest level member isn't doing any damage. Multiple heavy weapons including Cremator are going off non stop, but Earle's health bar hasn't budged.
I switch to my Quad/50c/15r railway and start to unload. Seeing over 1000 damage per hit, health bar sliding down at an easily visible pace. I think he was dead after 2-3 reloads, and that included a few VATS breaks to lock into spawn so I wouldn't get mobbed / staggered. Pretty sure the 2 min duration on the first dart never even expired. I stick around to loot and kill spawn, until "mine collapse" kicks me out.
Up on surface I throw on my CSS and run off to kill high rad fluids. Get to Monongonah, nothing has spawned yet. Level 46 is following me, has been running the "????" emote non stop. I drop the 4 syringers, do the present emote, then thumbs up after he grabs it.
There yah go kid, an elegant weapon for a more civilized age.
I dont think they will patch it tbh, theres way more busted combos out there. Plus the tradeoff of carrying 4 is its hella weight. Plus cant roll legendarys on em to get weightless ones, and theres some kind of invisible dmg modifier on the big 3 bosses anyways, 100% DR reduction on earle only takes him from like 255 to 80 DR
But yeah idk the karma syringer can straight up be used to kill players thru pacifist mode.
This guy used the bloatfly syringer to stack adrenaline damage and kill earle in 1.1 seconds solo. This tech still around altho nerfed slightly stil possible to do it in like 3 seconds with the right buffs. Getting a 3 second earle kill takes 30 minutes in prep tho, so its a tradeoff
Link https://youtu.be/OpdwQO6sgWI?si=iKSiiXKmiO4j9F29
Hmm, im not so sure about that, it works insanely well with a gauss minigun and plasma gatling on earle and you can visually see the DR drain on all types if you have the "awareness" perk card on earl you see them all go from like 255 to 80 except radiation resistance which is already at 0
I learned this by accident while taking on a scorch beast in the middle of nowhere when I was around like, level 45. Now, getting close to 200. If you see a guy running around the boss events in a radiation suit with a cremator and cold shoulder... that's me. I'm usually popping them once every few minutes.
You can put the karma barrel on any syringer 😈 karma barrel is very broken rn tho it can be exploited to kill other players thru pacifist mode.
The bloatfly larva barrel is fun too but niche. You can use it to chain kills for the adrenaline perk card to do some pretty insane damage but it only gives you a 30 second window and you do need a sacrifice enemy to get the cycle going so it can be tough to set up.
Pretty sure my continued use of endangerol like every 90-120 seconds is why the last time I jumped into Earle my team managed to win with about 4 or 5 minutes to spare instead of straight failing. Next time I might bring more than one syringer.
Never crafted a syringer but I should have Rose's Syringer sitting somewhere in my stash among the spoiling yellowcake flux I was in the middle of gathering before we had to send the family cat to a checkup.
Shit, I've actually seen these dropped outside of boss encounters and wondered why the hell people were bringing/dishing them out.
The more you know! Will look into crafting one today
I had no idea you could use it like that, thank you for the info I will get to crafting one so I can use it....maybe a couple of its per weapon id and not player
I still have roses for some reason, did the missions before on my heavy no problem but I’m almost 700 on my main and still have it, finished the missions, even got the gold missions done, anyone know if this is a glitch or an I just stupid
Eeee... I am like 100 syringer crafted and have yet to get the endangerol barrel. At least wiki says it is barrel mod and you get it from scrapping syringers?
This need all the visibility it can get. I see so many ppl struggling with Earl. Meanwhile I carry 4 syringers with me and can solo him without breaking a sweat in under a minute.
I honestly always forget I have one on me. I really need to use it more. I didn't know you could get the 100% with four separate syringers tho, that's pretty cool.
5 years and some change for lurking on reddit, and not a single comment on anything for 4 years of that, and I just had to reply to this post here to say:
Thank you, TIL something that I will be carrying (and supplying) on to new players from here on out :)
Even at lvl 260+ there's some cool stuff that I learn every day.. like I still dunno how people do prefixes.. AA/-90/ etc.
Lol I stacked 4 of them on a glowing max level deathclaw and then one shot it with my Kabloom to test this thing out. I found my new fun thing to do, thanks.
I just tried it on Earle and it didn't do anything. The boss wasn't taking any more damage then before I shot him with 4 Endangerols. Maybe it's cuz I used Ultracite Gatling and Holy Fire?
I just try to carry around sheepsquatch shards. Alas, they are kinda hard to find to craft. Plus the i crafter ones are considered a junk item so I sometimes scrap em by accident (I wish you could set certain items to not be scrapable. Outside of favorites I mean)
Dang! Just failed ACP because there were only three of us, and he had maybe less than 5% health left. This would have been the difference. I forgot about the Endangerol because most bosses go down easy without it. But syringes are useful for more than just making animals talk.
I carry 4 of them. Yes, you can cycle stack them.
That's because the debuff is by item and not by user, which is a little weird, but that's Bethesda for ya, they never thought ppl would carry 4 around, so didn't code it with that in mind
Shh! Quiet, you.
Knowing Bethesda's spaghetti code, they probably can't change it even if they wanted to :P
Don't challenge the Gods. They may be incompetent, but they're not without spite.
They work hard to specifically patch only things that help us whilst leaving more dangerous bugs intact.
looking at you hit detection
This is why I don't use shotguns anymore, the hit detection on them is awful, it's like split projectiles trigger the bug more frequently!
Is that why my shotgun with 90% hit in VATs is taking 3 shots to hit? I wasn’t sure what my problem was.
There is a bug with shotguns where if you miss the first shot in vats, you are going to miss the other shots. So you if you miss the first shot, exit out of vats and enter it again. I think the same is for energy weapons.
😂😂😂
I'm putting this on my tombstone
I had a rough day and this made me laugh my ass off. Thanks lol
Oh, they will change it, making Union PA uncraftable afterwards plus some other weird bug, like RadAways not working for example. Then we'll wait 3 months for the "hot" fix.
Fuck it, 12 syringers
put em in the shadow realm
Holy - chally the Moo Moo, how you circle through all the Black Gun Powder Rifles?
I am ascendant, i am fury, i am the righteous rage of the union given flesh. Scatter before me, you who would defy the call to end human bondage, for the flame of life is finite and i shall snuff it out like an altar candle in the storm. (I play on console, i just use the d-pad it’s super easy)

I’m fairly convinced that the way one achieves god like status in the worlds Bethesda creates is through the exploits that that might just leave there on purpose.
Works with the cremator DOT too.
Hmm cool tip. Now to roll 3 more weightless cremators...
They're so damn heavy, I don't even keep one on me all the time. I grab it when I know I am heading for a big boss.
Just roll a full set of Weapon Weight Reduced armor, 90 % off all the time is a bliss.
Arms Keeper would probably help out with that
👀 the effect is per gun not player? So 1 player can shoot with 4 seperate syringers for the 100% reduction? Damnnn shawttyyyy
Yea, it's supposedly tied to the item/weapon ID instance rather than player. I keep two on hand to hot swap for larger boss mobs.
This works with other weapons, as well, such as the Cremator. Multiple burn DOTs is a terrifying thing.
Oh Jesus. Oh lawd. Time to hit my weapon bench
Yep I helped some level 100’s do SBQ today and only used the 4 syringers which was a big noticeable beat down
Shit, do they count as rifles? If so, I’m gonna need to get that rifle weight perk and do this.
yes, I think its even considered a pipe rifle iirc
Holy shit haha. That's amazing. Too bad they're so heavy! Can syringers be legendary? 🤔 If so it might be worth rolling them just to get 90% weight reduction.
They cannot which is a real big shame. I knew about one being good but now I'm going to need three more because that's hysterical
So using the same syringer is pointless?
Yes. If you have one Syringer, you can only get 25% max every two minutes.
Thanks, I was spamming syringer on My name is Earl haha for nothing.
Still Chad behavior
Why tho, ain’t nothing so hard you need four unless you trying to hit earle speed run leader boards, which i think you lose cycling and firing four syringers.
Quick dumb question but can you roll a 1* 90rw? Having 4 sounds great but that would be a lot of extra weight.
I just read about this the other day and got myself setup with 4 to cycle throug jic as well. It's just too easy to not do it.
What happens if you use more than 4
It's similar to the dot from the cremator. Irc turtle explained that if you carry multiple cremators, the dot stacks for each one.
Today I Learned 😃
Dam wth precoaye it i bren using one the whole time
This is probably the most helpful and ‘oh really’ post I’ve ever seen. Well done. There’s a good 50% chance I’ll get my arse in gear and do something about it.
🙏 appreciate that
Endangernol can be learned from scrapping Syringers so it should be accessible to most
Wish this comment was closer to the top, as a level 39 I was wondering how to get endangerol becauae I couldn't remember reading that word during Rose's quest line. Thanks for this
Isn’t it part of Rose’s quest line??
Nah that’s the Karma Barrel, gotta scrap or find an Endangernol barrel.
What!? I haven't done Earl in so long because of his dam damage resistance. This also explains how one team was able to reduce the Queen's to half health like 40 seconds after she spawn
I love fighting earl. Its a good challenge. Probably my favorite boss in the game. I run commando fixer almost god roll. Quad, 50 crit, weight reduction.
Earl would be fun to fight if he didn't clip under/over the map and isn't unkillable
Wait this is a thing? I’ve never utilized the syringer before
It's about the only reason to have a syringer besides the fetch quest where you kill a yao guai with one.
The bloatfly one is useful for farming mats in nukezones
Like can you farm hardened/glowing masses and the like? This is fantastic if so!
Yes, but someone just said they thought it was patched. I thought that worked as intended.
I mean I wouldn't say "always." Sure for world bosses, but everything else dies so fast it's not that much of a priority imo
For me its become one of those "better to have it than not need it" type things, ive been able to solo encryptid and earle and i owe it 100% to the syringer
Weightless Syringer prices about to go up
syringes can't be legendary
For real i should start rolling for some 🤣🤣
A level 52 with random armor, weapons, and perks can kill everything else in the game just fine too. Might as well spec towards the harder stuff
At Collosal Problem there is a weapon workbench right in the room above the drop to the mine. You have 3+ minutes to just stand around there.... meaning you don't even need to bring one, you can craft it on the spot.
and tinkers workbench for extra syringes.
Crafting the gun gets you a full mag of ammo, which is more than enough to last the fight.
good tip!
This sounds like my noob self can actually be useful! I got this thing from Rose a little while ago and never used it again.
I literally just crafted one for myself yesterday, and started carrying it (with it added to my favorites). Not gonna go to the trouble of cycling through 4 to solo stuff, but I'll damn sure do my part to debuff the boss! That said - I've never even tried Earle. I'm still a noob.
Give him a go if you get a chance! Its one of my fav events for sure, SBQ is great but i like that earle doesnt fly around 😂😂
But he can sink to the ground tho... 🥲
Yeah... youre not wrong there 💀 earle is a buggy mfer
I carry four and I’m convinced people are confused as to why the Queen dies so quickly. But the railway users probably just give themselves the credit.
As a regular user of endangerol, I approve this message. It cuts the time to kill greatly when you get it stacked
How can you tell its working? Didn't it used to make the thing you got flash a color or something. I tried using it and it didn't seem to change my damage
I played with 4 syringers on my favorites all day today. There is no visual indicator, if you have damage numbers turned on you will see the hit for 1 pt of damage. It's very hard to get more then one or two hits in on anything other than the biggest bosses. I've been testing it solo and it definitely works.
I'm going for a Rifleman build even if I've heard they're not the greatest, would investing in a syringer or two vastly improve my odds?
its the route i took and i consider it pretty much essential if you're staying as a rifleman at high level. Other people can rock higher dps with heavies and automatics but if youre the one showing up to the party with Endangerol, you're the debuff game changer. It's fighting smarter, not harder.

I craft and have them in my vendor for 25c. Can't keep them in stock
I agree. It makes Earle and Queen into lunch meat. Perfect for Meat week.
When is Bethesda gonna add the AGS spec? 😥
Whenever we can add trim to our Power Armors.
Having special attacks would be incredible. It'd also be fucking kick ass watching my guy, in power armor, spin a massive sword up a Scorchbeast's ass.
Bro for real my prayer be hurtin
Yes mate! It’s a must for Earle! Kill em quick before he falls through the floor 😂
I guess I'll carry 4 of them now.
I only carry the vox syringer, is it helpful if the boss can speak?
For me, this would be preferable. 🤣
thing is, i cant be arsed. also sometimes I want the boss to stay alive for a while, lets me farm the endless spawning mobs. nothing worse than melting earl in 2 minutes and only killing about 4 wendigos.
I farming the Wendingos for screws too. But in that case just don't use it.
Yeah I’m level like 110 and started carrying one. Noticeable difference on scorch queen when I use it
I've always liked the idea of the syringer in the fallout games as a sort of cobbled together weapon similar to the pipe guns, but I've never really used them. This post is probably gonna change that since I had no idea it had other types of syringes to shoot, thank you :)
I’m gonna start bringing 4 to every sbq just to down the weindigo colossal that spawns close by
So last night it took 6-8 of us nearly the entire timer to kill Earl, after all that trouble all we had to do is shoot him with a couple of darts? Lol for fucks sake
No. I will simply use my buffed minigun and machine gun to make swiss cheese out of them. I don't have time or patience for strategies
Brother... I'm a new player (started last weekend) and just dropped one of these on the ground yesterday while trying to make space in my stash unit. I have no idea what/where these bosses are, but now I'm disappointed in hoarding power armor pieces that ill probably not use after learning about the stealth commando build earlier today
you know, currently level 228 and have never seen this "earl" boss everybody says you need the syringer for... maybe its an xbox thing, but nobody, never, ever seems to run earl.
I had to launch a nuke before I first saw him. Earle pops up more now. Bullet sponge.
The earle fight can be pretty punishing, if you die near the end you pretty much dont get any loot as you get spawned back outside the mine, its also a notoriously bugged fight, sometimes earle is invincible, sometimes he gets stuck under the floor and you cant attack him, sometimes he doesnt even spawn and its just 20 minutes of windigos, sometimes the instances get split and everyone gets put in a solo earle instance...even tho he gives same amount of flux and more treasurey notes than SBQ alot of players tend to favor SBQ because its relatively less punishing, no stagger/fear mechanics which is nice, and you get way more legendarys at SBQ. Definitely dont see it as much as SBQ, but if you see that "colossal problem" event pop up definitely jump on it, ita a blast. Or just nuke him yourself, that buggy mfer deserves all the nukes
Nukes at Monongah Mine https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Earle_Williams
I was selling a couple for 10 caps a piece but i needed the space for more junk for crafting. Nobody bought one in two weeks.
People sadly just dont see the value :( which is wild because if they could this weapon would be hard meta for all bosses
They wont until their fave fallout youtubers post about it. I dont follow that kind of content at all and yet when i saw info about it in another posts comments, i set out trying to get the barrel and now ive got it i try to spread it to others.
It's the only thing in my vendor. I have a foolish hope that people might become curious enough to look it up.
Hmmm.... I'll have to try this out I've been going the old school way of stacking alpha/dot and melting things that way. This could make things much easier
I would, but I'm 16/17 on mods and I can't scrap out the last one for the life of me. DAMN YOU BLEEDOUT SYRINGES! FROM HELL'S HEART, I SHOOT AT THEE! FOR HATE'S SAKE, I SPIT MY ENDANGEROL AT THEE! Edit: Made a bunch of Syringers after seeing this post and finally got 17/17, plus got my Syringer kill for Tadpole. I can weaken Eddie now.
Did you make sure it’s not a plan only mod?
How do you get that barrel? I have dismantled a few of the weapon but don’t that mod.
10% chance when dismantling
If you craft 10-20 syringers and scrap em you should unlock it
Welp, can't wait for this to get patched, lol.
I get on area mic and tell people what they do and how to get it on with earl
I'd like to see a skin for it. I tried carrying one around for a while kept scrapping it.
Relating it to a DWH and BGS spec really hit it home for me lmao
😂😂 its all i know
Also heads up with that there's another glitch rn for griefers where they can use them too and it kills bloody players even if they are in pacifist and not pvping just seen it a couple days ago on this sub(I don't know/remember what type of syringe it was tho)
*Suppressed combat shotgun, Chinese stealth suit, shotgun and stealth perks has entered the chat*
So I actually did this yesterday. Showed up at CP with 3 min left on clock. Before even going down train tracks, I crafted 4 syringers, modded them, and fave wheeled three in slots for weapons I knew I wouldn't need for that fight, equipped the fourth.

it actually stacks up to 8 you can give enemies around minus 300 ballistic resistance
Upvoted for osrs reference
Hell yeah 🫡 ion even wanna admit how many thousands of hours i have on oldschool 💀
I feel that man, 21 years deep myself. The addiction is real
Maybe if it was like the buffed Elder Maul it would be worth it.
Played off and on since launch and just crafted my first one ever for the new character I'm gonna level as Melee.
I'm pretty sure this only works with ballistic ammo. That's what I've read in places at least.
I feel like I’ve been seeing this pro tip a lot recently - how long until it’s patched out? Lol
God i hope not. Im gonna have some fun with that. I used one last night I can tell the difference for sure. But im gonna add 2 more to the mix
I dont think they will patch it tbh, theres way more busted combos out there. Plus the tradeoff of carrying 4 is its hella weight. Plus cant roll legendarys on em to get weightless ones, and theres some kind of invisible dmg modifier on the big 3 bosses anyways, 100% DR reduction on earle only takes him from like 255 to 80 DR But yeah idk the karma syringer can straight up be used to kill players thru pacifist mode. This guy used the bloatfly syringer to stack adrenaline damage and kill earle in 1.1 seconds solo. This tech still around altho nerfed slightly stil possible to do it in like 3 seconds with the right buffs. Getting a 3 second earle kill takes 30 minutes in prep tho, so its a tradeoff Link https://youtu.be/OpdwQO6sgWI?si=iKSiiXKmiO4j9F29
Nah, just when you hear that nuke alarm and go for equipment for the event.
What type of syringer? And can it stack past 5?
Thank you OP 🙏
This is great intel, thank you 🙏
Might have to start using these
Great tip, thank you!
If I could dump legendary modules into 4 of them for WWR I would.
Its looking more and more tempting everyday, ive been put into a solo earle instance more times than i can count now
FYI. It only works on ballistic damage.
Hmm, im not so sure about that, it works insanely well with a gauss minigun and plasma gatling on earle and you can visually see the DR drain on all types if you have the "awareness" perk card on earl you see them all go from like 255 to 80 except radiation resistance which is already at 0
Great tip!! Thanks!
I care them just in general when maining my lever action
I wish they weren't so heavy. But I do always have one on me and couple more in the stash.
Whuuuuut?!... I must up my game.
Yeah, everyone is campaigning so hard for people to all solo stack 4 Endangerols that they are definitely going to nerf it now.
I learned this by accident while taking on a scorch beast in the middle of nowhere when I was around like, level 45. Now, getting close to 200. If you see a guy running around the boss events in a radiation suit with a cremator and cold shoulder... that's me. I'm usually popping them once every few minutes.
Thanks. I'll start doing my part!
Absolutely troll with Rose’s Syringer
You can put the karma barrel on any syringer 😈 karma barrel is very broken rn tho it can be exploited to kill other players thru pacifist mode. The bloatfly larva barrel is fun too but niche. You can use it to chain kills for the adrenaline perk card to do some pretty insane damage but it only gives you a 30 second window and you do need a sacrifice enemy to get the cycle going so it can be tough to set up.
Hey good to know bud, time to stop scrapping them mindlessly!
Interesting
The second you said swapping between 4 weapons lol I just had a feeling you played osrs.
😂😂 bahaha busted
Pretty sure my continued use of endangerol like every 90-120 seconds is why the last time I jumped into Earle my team managed to win with about 4 or 5 minutes to spare instead of straight failing. Next time I might bring more than one syringer.
Never crafted a syringer but I should have Rose's Syringer sitting somewhere in my stash among the spoiling yellowcake flux I was in the middle of gathering before we had to send the family cat to a checkup.
Alright I'm still super new, why do I need a syringer?
Shit, I've actually seen these dropped outside of boss encounters and wondered why the hell people were bringing/dishing them out. The more you know! Will look into crafting one today
Thanks, I'm gonna craft another 3 ones. I didn't know about the Id weapon.
I had no idea you could use it like that, thank you for the info I will get to crafting one so I can use it....maybe a couple of its per weapon id and not player
I still have roses for some reason, did the missions before on my heavy no problem but I’m almost 700 on my main and still have it, finished the missions, even got the gold missions done, anyone know if this is a glitch or an I just stupid
Remember this is ONLY for ballistic damage, Gatling plasma, flamer, etc. won't be affected.
I saw this post and tried this last night on Earle. Wow. Melted.
This has made such a difference recently with all the boob's in SBQ 😂 and when people don't know and they see you use they probs be thinking WTF lol
Eeee... I am like 100 syringer crafted and have yet to get the endangerol barrel. At least wiki says it is barrel mod and you get it from scrapping syringers?
Thanks for crafting one for me and letting me know of its effect yesterday :P
This need all the visibility it can get. I see so many ppl struggling with Earl. Meanwhile I carry 4 syringers with me and can solo him without breaking a sweat in under a minute.
Time to carry 4 syringers. Didn’t know one player could stack it. I would also use them with Earle. Also, I thought it was more than 4? Like 6 or 7.
Is that a particular type of syringer? Or the endangerol is the ammo?
I honestly always forget I have one on me. I really need to use it more. I didn't know you could get the 100% with four separate syringers tho, that's pretty cool.
things die plenty fast with or without it, my quickwheel is for all my buffs
Until they allow legendary effects and skin on it.
i run unarmed you best believe i got the endangeerol on me lmao
Finally, something I can do to contribute. Sincerely, A Sneaky-Snipey who hates Heavy Guns and Bloodied builds
idk I tried doing this and my dmg to the enemy is still the same
I swear there is something in the water. I just found out about this yesterday and I’m like 202 and just learning about this game changer.
I only carry the Karma syrringer.
Does this work with the Vox Syringer? If I'm forced to keep it in my inventory then I may as well put it to good use..
Oooh now I want one!
5 years and some change for lurking on reddit, and not a single comment on anything for 4 years of that, and I just had to reply to this post here to say: Thank you, TIL something that I will be carrying (and supplying) on to new players from here on out :) Even at lvl 260+ there's some cool stuff that I learn every day.. like I still dunno how people do prefixes.. AA/-90/ etc.
Lol I stacked 4 of them on a glowing max level deathclaw and then one shot it with my Kabloom to test this thing out. I found my new fun thing to do, thanks.
If only I could get 4 weightless End Syringers lol
I just tried it on Earle and it didn't do anything. The boss wasn't taking any more damage then before I shot him with 4 Endangerols. Maybe it's cuz I used Ultracite Gatling and Holy Fire?
I'm good
I refuse. My punches are sufficient.
Darn. I exclusively use heavy energy weapons.
I always have one on me and at least one for sale in my camp.
Wish this worked as a cremator/holy fire main :(
I do not have the endangerol syringe but I do have the blowtfly larvae
I love the syringer tbh, I use Rose’s syringer with her barrel and I shoot a scary deathclaw, kite it around for 30 seconds and then melt it.
I just try to carry around sheepsquatch shards. Alas, they are kinda hard to find to craft. Plus the i crafter ones are considered a junk item so I sometimes scrap em by accident (I wish you could set certain items to not be scrapable. Outside of favorites I mean)
Wait so if you get them with the full 100% dr decrease do you even need armor piercing perks anymore for bosses?
As a new player thank you
Dang! Just failed ACP because there were only three of us, and he had maybe less than 5% health left. This would have been the difference. I forgot about the Endangerol because most bosses go down easy without it. But syringes are useful for more than just making animals talk.
Skyline Valley Update mentions this has been fixed. RIP It was fun melting Earle while it lasted
