How to Find the Best Fallout 4 Legendary Weapons
Lorenzo’s Artifact Gun
For the most part Gamma Weapons aren’t the most useful way to kill things in Fallout 4’s Boston Wasteland. It’s not that they aren’t powerful, it’s the fact that they heavily rely on an enemy not having radiation resistance. In a world built heavily upon the fact that a nuke was dropped, most residents are completely immune to the effects. That may make it seem like Lorenzo’s Artifact Gun would have no chance out in the wild, but you’d be wrong. It’s special ability (which isn’t described at all) makes it more than worth adding to your repertoire.
First is to find the weapon. It is actually an optional reward from the side quest The Secret of Cabot House. It’s the last in the Jack Cabot questline that you can begin by talking to the Ghoul Edward Deegan (can be found wandering Diamond City, Goodneighbor, or Bunker Hill). At the end you’ll have the option to kill Lorenzo Cabot or spare him. If you choose to kill him you can convince Jack to give you a better reward which will lead him to tell you to return in a week. What he does is creates a weapon using Lorenzo’s Artifact that he gives to you.
The weapon possesses Lorenzo’s telekinetic abilities giving it a sort of Force Push effect. Even if it can’t do any radiation damage the gun can push enemies away and even tear their limbs off so don’t let the low damage stat fool you. There’s nothing like watching an entire group of enemies burst into a cloud of gore as you hit them with a huge telekinetic blast.
