      I don’t know. I only started playing last week. I’m using a Service Rifle I got from a quest and leather armor

        Nice. Guns tend to be nice all-rounders. Very versatile if a bit boring. Assuming you got the rifle from killing the ants on the I-15. Gives you armour piercing ammo too which is pretty rare in the early game. 12.6mm SMG is absolutely disgusting if you spec it right.

        I always go for energy weapons myself. Cost more to maintain but they're more fun and pack more of a punch imo.

        You'll be coming up on the Ratslayer rifle I reckon. It's off the road a bit and there are potentially difficult enemies nearby it but it's a good early game rifle. Uses 5.56 as well. Don't want to spoil where it is though unless you ask.

          There aren’t a lot of laser weapons around, and I don’t have enough MFCs

            Yeah, that's the main issue early on.

            But what if I told you that early on... there's an energy weapon that doesn't need any ammo at all. :)

            Enjoy.
