Thunderbolt

The Thunderbolt is a weapon in the Fallout 4 Creation Club content "Quake Thunderbolt."

Gameplay
The Thunderbolt is a unique energy weapon capable of firing a continuous stream of electricity. It functions similarly to the flamer and the Cryolator. The main upsides of the Thunderbolt come from its near-pinpoint accuracy, lack of heavy recoil, and its split-second reload, though these are counteracted by its rate of fire, causing it to rapidly guzzle fusion cells. With the hypercharged magazine, the weapon is highly unstable in wet conditions. When fired in the rain, the Thunderbolt will and empty its entire magazine.

Location
The Thunderbolt can be looted off of one of the raider champions at the Cambridge crater, during the quest Deathmatch.

Behind the scenes
The Thunderbolt is originally from the game Quake. Games in the series have been published by Bethesda Softworks since 2010.
