This video will show you the damage scaling of rifles, SMG, semi auto rifles, and even the sniper rifle. The damage from these are the highest in the game making them the best weapon to "main" in Starfield. If you want the strongest most versatile weapon the game has to offer, these are it. This is a must watch for anyone wanting to min-max their combat potential.

*Click the "Thanks" button under the video to leave me a donation.* Here's the fastest way to get an advanced magshear as shown in the video: th-cam.com/video/1uhVRGZ54-8/w-d-xo.html
I've got plain unmodified refined magshears and the damage on them is 18. So something is clearly wrong.
getting the advanced magshear is often explained false! yes you got a chance that the normla magshear will turn into an advanced one but after 300+ loads I found a 100% way that 100000% easier , set difficulty to very hard be sure NOT to mouseover the magshears before! ,stand infront of them with the steathskill on and hidden and save the game, after this just steal the 2 guns from the shelf , the game now thinks in RAM they are gone! , now you just reload the saved game , and the game engine thinks still the guns are gone reloads them but now with the advanced ones! there you go!
Lol! I followed your guide and hockey -pucked one of the A-Mags into the backroom closed the door and when I walked out that girl stopped me just outside the door for theft. Fortunately, I also followed your guide and saved just prior. Btw, I'd give 50 or more credits if you would do a video how-to, on upgrading the Frontier Starship like you did for the Razorleaf. I want something small light, and very fast, that will fight pirates and not make them run from me. 😃
I haven't tried it yet but at the weapon shop in Hopetown, if you save the game, take the magshear off the shelf then reload the game, the magshear will be reset to be an advanced magshear. Then you can use the garbage can behind the counter to knock the guns off of the shelves, push them into the storeroom in the back, close the door and then you can pick them up without getting arrested for stealing. Then you can take them to a trade authority, sell them the advanced magshears and buy them back to remove the stolen tags off of them.
When I bought them back from the guy at the wolf den, they came back as 31.
This should definitely be a pinned comment
I did that. But sold 1 for the money & kept the other as a "buy back" with NO stolen tag.
The OP comment deserves to be highlighted for its goodness!
Lol dude, benji was like the first person to make a video about the trash can trick at hopetown.
The magshear in the shop is technically "superior" quality like how there's superior armor. The devs messed up the naming convention but they have different item ids then regular advanced magshears
Im level 346 play in hard and have never seen a superior quality weapon only armor are these magshears the ONLY superior weapons? Lol big dev oversight
@@adaml3010 They don't say "Superior". They still say "Advanced" they just have better stats than regular Advanced
You got that weapon id for the 25 dmg magshear? I looted mine from the shop before I learned about the save scum trick.
@@adaml3010WAIT❗WHAT❓ Level "346" ⁉️😮
@Bobaphatt there is no actual weapon id for the different tier weapons, its just a weapon mod, you can drop the weapon mod from inventory, and use the "amod" command to add the mod, i dont remember the actual id, but i do know you have to add each teir in order to actually get the higher stats
I'm suprised no one has talked about the Breach. Putting a long barrel and slug rounds on it makes it a glorified sniper with higher base damage. Not to mention you can run a 2x scope for the benefit of scoped perks, while still making it useable in close quarters.
Yea I keep one in my favorites and it absolutely slaps!
Totally love that gun. Found one in a shop with 341 dmg so far lol. Slug shots are where it's at
Only wep I use pretty much, have it at like 675 dmg rn which is pretty sweet!
It’s a good weapon, but very heavy…
I found a refined Va’ruun Inflictor early in the game, which does more DPS than a Magsniper and does not need to charge. But it's a particle beam rifle
Hard target is to me just a better sniper.
The magsniper has to much sway and is less user friendly. The damage difference isnt huge either
Agree whole heartedly. Todd clearly designed the magsnipe. No logic was used on a weapon where precision steady aim is required, but to get any real power the barrel needs to start having a seizure. I too will stick with my Hard Target thanks. :)
Modded mine for more stability but this thing does over 1000 damage...I like that hard target too because you can use a suppressor on it, using one that does around 800 dmg
I agree. Even with the lower damage numbers, the Range, suppression option, and the stabilized stock make it a dead steady firing platform that readily takes out level 75 to 85 legends and two shots level 86 to 100 myths and legends.
Also worthy of note is using the Beowolf moded for burst fire. I routinely use it as a sniper for sub level 75 enemies or when shooting on the move.
Best rifle in semi is EASILY the Inflictor. It's an 800 + combined damage with an option for annihilator rounds.
I've farmed a few weapons. Personal preferences being the magsniper, got an epic. The revenant, a kodama, a med thief epic big bang. Also the legendary coachman with hornet nest rounds is deadly.
I haven't found the magsniper yet, but that camera shake looks like it would get annoying fast.
Found an advanced hard target. Was able to one-shot a level 90 spacer with it and remain in stealth to pick off his buddies. Not sure the extra damage on the magsniper is worth the hassle and lack of stealth but will still definitely give it a shot if I find one
Was hoping to see someone mention the Hard Target. It's much better for a Stealth build. Especially because you can't even put a suppressor on the MagSniper
I believe there is a skill that reduce camera shake which suits those who like Stealth and Sniping.
I do believe the hard target is the better sniper. DPS wise and in terms of practical use.
I was actually lucky enough to get a level 75 enemy to drop an Epic Lacerate Advanced Magshear with 36 Phys base damage with no mods during the Crimson Fleet questline. Almost made me wanna quit the questline because the Revenant was the only reason I was doing it, lol.
Using your legendary farming tips, I got a legendary advance magsniper to drop on Fermi III with over 500 base damage! And I'm only level 35. Now I just need to level my weapon engineering so I can add the mods
Make sure to Mod it bro, that will be insanely awesome. Even with just Weapons Engineering 1-2 you can make great Mod improvements. You don’t need high skill to wait to Mod it. Every bit you can do early makes it more awesomely fun weapon.
Don't stop making these types of videos, I learn a lot from them for sure!!!! Ty so much!
Can’t use silencer on mag sniper. Useless for stealth sniper.
Also the revenant legendary is a good option for a magshear if you don’t have the advanced version
Can't you get revenant with higher base dmg if you are doing it on ng+?
I really appreciate these videos! I want to see a comparison of the magsniper and the hard target. I’ve notice that the hard target doesn’t sway at all, at least with the long scope. Plus I don’t like charging the shot in the magsniper.
Same here, I prefer the hard target over the rest
Yeah one thing to note is that you can add a suppressor to the hard target but not the magsniper. With stealth skill the hard target will hit much harder if you simply crouch to shoot.
I got a rare advance magshear drop from a enemy with the perk that does 20 percent damage to robots
Same one I got. After mods it’s sitting at 52 physical damage.
@@oxpowzyeah, but that’s 52 dmg per projectile. Magshear with that power melts everything.
I decided not to use my legendary magshear drop but gave it to my follower instead.
@@sostrongineedmoreofyourmon974 yeah it rips through everything on very hard lol. You can just Leroy Jenkins everything. lol.
Vasco: "Captain _______, we're going to to need a bigger scope" 😅
Va’Ruun starshard is nasty as well. If you do the gun case glitch with the small gun cases you will get a lot. I’ve yet to get a legendary but I have a couple epic guns that slap high level enemies!!
I love the idea of the magshear but damn do i run out of ammo quick. I prefer using singke shot weapons so i don't have to worry about ammo consumption
I remember getting a legendary Beowulf that had instigated, bleed effect and something called one inch punch which turn the shots into a shotgun blast 💥 the damage was 512 per hit 😂 ,the only downside with this weapon, it only had 5 in the magazine with out upgrades
That sounds insanely fun. Just have to play accordingly with the low Mag count.
I had legendary Kodama that was God tier I was so mad when I went through the Unity and lost it
i grabbed the adv magshear both of them at valo and both were level 28 dmg and took me a bunch of time to get hidden but finally got the adv bridger with level 307 dmg. now to upgrade them both. thank you for the great weapon vids. and how to get them. i went from level 12 to level 38 in just two days farming xp on two outposts i made and made over 80k in 2 days selling com arrays from it. looking forward to your vids soon that i hope you make since the new hugh update bethesda just put out live today as well when the dlc hits this year.
First play through and first pirate captain dropped a gold legendary, modified grendal, explosive rounds, corrupted damage, full auto. I have already added longer barrel, and tactical grips at lvl 3.
This should be an easy run lol
“I sit on a wooden chair and hurt my asshole and bleed” lmao bruh 😂
Great video! Extremely informative in all seriousness
Early game if you find a Deserted UC Listening Post it always has two advanced AA-99 behind an expert locked door. Look for a "dungeon" that's a just hill and go in and stay to the right as you go through the first door.
Those AA-99s hit for 100+ on semi auto and I got mine before lvl 17.
You can farm Legendary and Advanced Magshears with 24 PHYS at level 75 planets using the outpost method . I’ve got a few of them . I have one modded max out valuing over a hundred thousand and it’s a beast .
Is there any way to get the advanced magsheer if I've got the standard magsheer from the shop? 😪
here is how th-cam.com/video/1uhVRGZ54-8/w-d-xo.html&t
bump
I have this issue as well. Answe please!
there was a bug, that might not of been totally fixed where Superior weapons drop but are named advanced where Superior weapons are the best versions of each type
Hey you mentioned at around the 8 minute mark that if you tell your companion to wait you actually get Isolation perk to activate. Firstly I did not know this so I have dismissed my companion as well as all my crew from my ship since the perks description states you must have no companion or crew members. Secondly I want to know since you can say you can tell your companion to wait and still have the Isolation perk active how does it work with crew members? Can you still have them in your ship. Lastly do you still get the companion skill perks even if they are waiting?
My magshear has 47 damage fully auto. It’s a legendary demoralizing overcharged advanced magshear that I modded with magnetic rails. I have ballistics 3 and rifles 3 so maybe that’s why? Lol it wrecks though
I Wish very hard was more difficult cause when you have your weapons and perks unlocked there is No Challenge anymore
i just bought a 28 base damage advanced magshear.
A workbench video would be awesome, a how-to for modding weapons, suits, etc
Weapon modding is super easy.
1. Go to a weapon mod table and activate it. there's one at most populated landing zones. (there's one in the lodge basement)
2. Select the weapon you want to mod; need to have the weapon in inventory, or accessible via ship inventory
3. Select the mod you want to add/remove/change out.
4. Apply the mod to that slot on the weapon.
Note 1: Each mod requires mats/resources to make/install the mod, so either have them on you or in your ship/outpost linked inventory (i.e. storage linked to a crafting table).
Note 2: advanced mods are locked behind research which is further locked behind certain skill ranks, BUT each weapon should have at least basic mods available for each slot, except for the skin slot (haven't unlocked that yet, and it is unavailable with no research completed).
Note 3: Some mods are unique/only available to a certain weapon or weapon class, though many are shared between classes. I.e. Tactical Grip is available on SMGs and Rifles, but not on pistols (iirc).
The one I was waiting for! Thanks!
i don't like the sniper scope on the beowolf even with the low zoom scope it's too in your face an acog sight would be ideal
Great work, man. Love your videos. They're so helpful for a casual gamer like myself.
only problem is, what to do with all our max levels, super hard hitting weapons, uber ships..? Im playing on very hard, now lvl 34, almost finished all main/faction quests, nothing is challenging anymore. Game needs survival mode with harder diffuclty settings so it stops bein walking-fast traveling-owning enemeis simulator
0028F445 is the mod id for the lvl5 weapon
I found an 89 damage Beowolf with Anti personnel.
Just checked stats. 95phys acc 80 fr60
Is revenant an magshear? That would make this weapon insane for ng+ as you can get guranteed op weapon with crazy legendary effects
love your content. thanks so much for the data
getting the advanced magshear is often explained false! yes you got a chance that the normla magshear will turn into an advanced one but after 300+ loads I found a 100% way that 100000% easier , set difficulty to very hard be sure NOT to mouseover the magshears before! ,stand infront of them with the steathskill on and hidden and save the game, after this just steal the 2 guns from the shelf , the game now thinks in RAM they are gone! , now you just reload the saved game , and the game engine thinks still the guns are gone reloads them but now with the advanced ones! there you go!
Yeah I already posted the video with these exact instructions. :-/
I have a T4 Magstorm that's Rare with extended mag as the special...
320 mag size...
Great videos! Very helpful - especially for us 'non expert' gamers! (can we obtain a beowulf somewhere like we did with the 3 advanced guns at the hopetown shop?) I yoinked all 3 with level 3 stealth. easy peasy! (other than Sarah giving me crap about stealing! ) LOL I'll leave her in the ship next time. Ty again. 2 thumbs up.
Would you say it’s better to go with introvert and level isolation vs extrovert and having a companion?
For sniper/stealth play you want introvert. Otherwise, pick anything you want including extrovert. The reason is that companions follow you and attack or get attacked even when you are not engaged in the fight yourself. Hope that helps.
I've found a 28 Lego an bumped it up to 33.1 with armour rounds on the madshear
i have it done like you showed it. or maybe false i dont know but i first took the first ones in normal mode with the trash bin behind the doors. after that i safed the game put it on very hard and restarted again after that the 2 magshere apeared with 25 damage :)
but they are red marked?
I picked up the magshear (not advanced) early from tip from your starting tip video so no magshear to get to advanced in the shop.
Is there any way to respawn the weapons on the shelf in the shop?
I'm having the same issue. I watched the first video and I got the regular Magshear.
Yep, I've gotten a few 'Supreme' quality items, all from farming legendaries on level 75 planets.
Superior or supreme?
@@AR333 Superior, sorry.
@swolebenji depleted uranium over penetrator rounds for damage?
I haven't tested both yet. Might make a vid on weapon addons eventually.
You can actually get legendary magshears to drop in endgame zones.
Thanks for the video!
Aw yeah that's some serious numbers. May just be a lowly console normie but I do appreciate some tism dmg calculations
Varuun drop a 54dmage one for me non upgraded on very hard?
varuun inflictor is so much better than beowolf it can do up to 600+ energy dmg depending op skills and equipment
That's why I made a separate video about it.
Anyone have the console command for the "Advanced" upgrade?
Is an smg classed as a rifle or pistol? If it says ive managed to miss it. Also at ( ) kinetics (i cant remember) theyre in the tower with stroud outside the astral lounge on neon. The vendor has a unique magshear called magtear and its an absolute beast.
It fals under Rifle, technically, but I've noticed that it doesn't share all of the same mods as the larger rifles, so I feel like there are sub-class category filters being applied on the backend.
Easiest way to see this is to compare the mod selection available to a basic Grendel vs basic Maelstrom with no ranks in Weapon modification and zero research completed.
@d.w.6584 cool thanks. I specced into rifles so I hadn't been using them thinking my perks wouldn't affect them. The arsenal just grew. Bwhhhaaaa😈
Core kinetics in the trade tower on neon ( use the elevator for the unique magshear
Great video keep them coming I bought an xbox x to play this game
I've seen professional grade weapons, are they the ones above advanced?
From what I know “Advanced” in the name is the highest in their tier class for base stats. It could be Legendary or Epic “Advanced” maybe with other properties though besides just stats.
@@ardentdfender4116 Yep you're right, I picked up a professional modified shotty, I think professional is factory supressed for hitmen maybe.
I like the "One Inch" legendary stats on my guns
After this vid im confident that my epic advanced magshear was rly good ^^
Any tips on finding the sniper?
sold in akila after level 60
Can magsniper get bonus for silencer from stealth skill like Hard target?
I'm pretty sure that the bonus applies to ALL suppressed weapons so all you have to do is be in stealth mode...
@@dkindig Magsniper doesn't have suppressor mod, so what I meant is: is magsniper suppressed by default and can the stealth skill bonus apply?
Best I know from modding weapons is that not all weapons are able to have all the same mods. It varies per weapon.
Did I get super lucky cause the magshears I stole dropped at 30
i just got a 30 dmg Advanced Magshear lol
I'm just using the AA-99 because it looks the right size and generally looks good and ive just edited tbe file settings and boosted the stats for it instead as i wasn't able to find one to go above 132 dmg, so i boosted it to 489 damage and tweaked the accuracy on it too
Anyone got some good locations to find these weapons or guaranteed drops?
I’d say any high or higher lvl System Or 70+ System planetary facilities with NPC’s. Pirates also like Abandoned Facilities. But just check planets or moon to see if there are any there on a higher lvl planet. Obviously the higher the level the better. Before you land on planet or moon change game setting to highest difficulty. Once you enter facility change to whatever game difficulty you like.
Level 75 Pirate Legend just dropped me a legendary Magsniper that does 1,010 dmg😮
Can you do some late game min max ship building? Have seen your early game mantis and thats great but what about level 40+ when you have more ship parts unlocked?
Working on that video now but it's taking time. I have all the parts but weapons done and I'll have to split them into separate videos.
@@SwoleBenji Awesome looking forward to it
Dude, you’re shooting my wife! 😮
I’ve 100% gotten a 23dmg magshear drop.
I can second this. In my experience in the game so far, dropped weapons seem to vary in damage on occasion. Early on in my game I had a 21 damage Combat Knife drop from a random Spacer. At that point I didn't know how high dmg that was for a knife.
The weapons dmg can vary from my experience it seems depending on the Systems level, the enemy NPC who dropped it and the difficulty that was set when you either landed in the zone of that facility initially.
I went to the vendor for the magsheer and I got a 30 damage one? Anyone else get that or am I super lucky? haha
It is 23 base. Presumably you have some skills that bump it up
The accuracy in this game feels really weird
Magshear need nerfing...
Drum beat does more dmg than beowolf but ammo isn't as common and hard target does the most dmg cause it can be supressed, prolly and even if it doesn't, its easier to use. But close range I'd use a pistol/rev for lower equip weight, just cause I always stealth.
Besides the fact the game is rather boring and the main story is terrible I am trying to understand certain people who say things like "I am going to play this for a long time to come" because the NG+ is boring and the only way to challenge yourself would be to use a level 1 weapon and once you have done the factions missions etc once there is really no need to do them again.
New universe where everything is more or less the same and you can do the quests again but this time steam roll everything because you are high level and better skills meaning no challenge and nothing in those missions change.
I moaned on steam about people claiming they will be playing this for a long time to come and one person said what about the caves and resource collection and exploring planets and that because I ONLY did all the missions/side mission etc I missed 65% of the game,lol. If someone wants to explore a cave for little to no reward and have the same cave over and over well good you for and if you want to survey a planet for 1k credits and a small amount of exp and then notice that most places are all the same then also GL and if you want to build a base and watch resources mount up GL but you can not claim they will keep you playing for a long time unless you are brain dead.
Bethesda needs to make NG+ worth playing and scale up the enemy and maybe make every universe different so you want to do play it again.
😴😴😴
Your experience and opinion isn’t better than those who enjoy the game and intend to play it for years to come.
Personally, I’ve been playing daily for 10+ hours doing all the content you say is boring and not worth doing. Fully surveying planets, exploring caves, taking out POI sites, hunting down outposts for research and crafting materials. I’ve done zero main quest missions beyond arriving at the lodge, I’m just about to finish the Ryujin corporate quest line, and I’ve recently joined the Vanguard to explore the terrormorph lore.
Been having a blast and while I have some UI and follower complaints, I haven’t been bored yet.
@@sostrongineedmoreofyourmon974 I am happy that you enjoy the game and I am not suggesting that they are boring as such I am saying if you have done it for awhile it is all the same. For example I spend my first 10 hours surveying a planet and doing POI and they were enjoyable, I am just saying that once you have done that the next planets are basically the same and the POI are the same.
I will also agree that sometimes you will find a new POI but it doesnt take long before they are all repeated and I know its hard to make different POI and while I admit that I as an uneducated coder know that it is rather easy to make a POI random and buy random I mean different enemy, items in differnt locations etc but you will soon see that every POI has the same enemy, same item location etc.
I love the fact you are enjoying playing +10 hors a day doing the same thing and good on you but can you admit that you are doing the same thing on every planet?
Would you not like it a little bit more if things were different on planets or there were different POI's?
If you can honestly say you are happy scanning more or less the same thing over and over then fine I understand that but personally I think they could make the game much better and to be clear I like the game and I guess I am a victim of knowing that they could make it better and just wanting them to do so.
