Have to admit, I have been playing Fo2 very long time, and this is first time I hear such thing

it could be a bug, but honestly I'm not sure.

Sounds like a glitch/bug more then anything else to be hornest.
I've never heard nor experienced about anything along this line.

G..Damned!!



Anyway, i have never heard of anything like it either, but i once found a plasma pistol in an encounter. It was some peasants or just some "people being attacked by robbers" encounter, and when i looked in one of the peasants' tents, there was a plasma pistol in his footlocker !
(whats for dinner dear??
BBQ'ed Brahmin! *Siitzz* *moo!*)

There is nothing strange in that, it's one of those encounters which are slightly special compared to others.

It's a strange encounter indeed, one I've never heard of or experienced. Do you remember what luck you had?

My suggestion is if one finds themself too rich and bored, simply dump all weapons and items and buy as many rockets as possible; using the rocket launcher as the main and only weapon is a fun and expensive hobby.

Mantis? Explosive rocket!
Robbers? Armour Piercing!
Doris and Dorothy? Armour Piercing!
