Super Sledge (Fallout 3)

The Super sledge is a two handed melee weapon in Fallout 3.

Characteristics
It has a slow swing speed, but makes up for this with high damage. With a well maintained super sledge, enough melee skill, and Critical Hits (Sneak or otherwise), most enemies can be killed (including super mutant masters and Enclave soldiers) with a single hit.

Durability
The super sledge can successfully strike about 600 times from full condition before breaking.

Variants

 * Fawkes' super sledge - A significantly better super sledge, it does more damage, weighs less, and has better durability. It can only be taken from Fawkes during Finding the Garden of Eden.
 * Super mutant overlord super sledge - Carried only by the rare melee-equipped super mutant overlord, this version has an object effect which inflicts an extra 25 damage per hit when used by non-player characters against the player. This damage ignores Damage Resistance and is independent of the condition of the weapon. This version is otherwise identical to the standard version of the weapon.


 * Discharge hammer - A cut version which inflicts additional electrical damage against robots.

Locations

 * Super sledges may be found on melee oriented super mutants at higher levels
 * Can be found on members of the Outcasts and Brotherhood of Steel paladins.
 * Three in Paradise Falls: Both Ymir and Jotun carry a super sledge, and one can be stolen from Lock and Load.
 * There is one in the lower armory of the mobile base crawler and two in the upper armory.
 * One can be found on top of a bookcase in a small raider camp just southwest of broadcast tower KB5. Its condition is low but is a useful find.
 * One can be found inside Satcom Array NN-03d.
 * Another may also be found on a smuggler on top of the Point Lookout Lighthouse.
