Old Faithful

Old Faithful is a unique laser pistol found in Fallout 4.
==Characteristics==
Old Faithful bears the Instigating effect, which does double damage if the target is at full health, making it a strong choice early in the game for stealthy characters, as a sneak attack against an enemy at full health will deal quadruple the base damage. The specific weapon modifications fitted to the gun when purchased are level dependent and will vary. As with all laser pistols in Fallout 4 it can be converted to a rifle, expanding its usefulness to Rifleman characters as well as Gunslingers and Commando.
