10. Ashmaker
Where you find it: If you skulk around a particular back alley in Goodneighbor, you'll find one Bobbi No-Nose, a Ghoul who wants you to help her tunnel into a vault belonging to Diamond City's mayor after the latter caused offence to the former by denying her entry to the safe haven. Well, that's what she tells you, anyway. Upon reaching the climax of the quest, you'll be confronted with the henchmen of Hancock - the leader of Goodneighbor. Yes, you've been lied too, and the owner of this vault is far more dangerous than the one Bobbi said you were robbing. Regardless of the final outcome, you'll find or be given the Ashmaker. Why you need it: Sadly, miniguns have been neglected in Fallout 4. The ammo they need to be loaded with is rarely found in random ammo caches, and buying it from vendors is costly, considering how much you need. Their damage sucks too. The Ashmaker will save the day, though. It has the same base damage as a normal minigun, but each and every bullet it expels at lightning speed will also cause fire damage to enemies and set them on fire. Point, shoot and watch as the world burns.
