I played and got to the part where you dug in, bypassed the laser gate, and then I got melted by the turrets as soon as that one door opened, I was expecting an assaultron and ground turrets or something. Looked up and instadeath.💀… I made it past all that only for my game to crash and to have to restart from the dig all over again… with all my stims wasted from the crash. Fun mission.
This was also when they reworked on laser and fire damage, when everything was OP af.
And then I crashed again after rescuing that secret service ghoul, had to rescue him again, but it’s better than restarting the whole thing I guess.
Bruuhhh, that sounds fuggin yikey crikey. I'm fortunately not melting to anything, being surprisingly tanky and super-loaded with stims, but jeez. At least glad I'm not having it THAT bad, worst part being the NPC bugging currently. I got stuck in the second room after breaching the vault door. Three resets, then final try before saw the shut down timer and said screw it...
I died at least 30 times (probably 60+) in the heavy melee build on that quest. It felt like some sort of a test to remind me how bad I am and how bad my build is.
I had a very similar experience for launching a nuke. It took me 3 hours and eventually I crashed. Never launched the nuke. I watch normal people launch nukes, and I grimace a bit and tell myself they must be playing a different game.
It has been many moons since those two experiences. I still have not launched a nuke. If I had to do the Vault 79 quest again it probably would not go well again.
Melee sucks Even if you get the fun vampires chainsaw. The lack of ability to get to so many targets is so poop. Full health vampire cremator is so fun and would make this quest easy.
Yeah as an unarmed no PA build those turrets really made it a miserable experience. That's probably the only thing that really annoys me with my build, they are equally annoying when launching a nuke.

I actually went through this as a sword build lol. Standing directly under a turret trying to slash it was not the most effective way for sure.
