Something Is Wrong With Vic

The only weapon he will use anymore is the .44 Mag. I've been having him use it for most of the game now, but I want to switch him to .223 Pistol. But he wont take it. In fact he wont use anything other than the .44 now. He wasn't like that earlier in the game.

I've tried taking his .44 away, I've tried saving and reloading, I've tried kicking him out of the party and bringing him back and nothing works. If I don't give him a .44 he will use his fists instead of any other weapon. When I go into combat control and click "use best weapon" nothing happens unless he has a .44. If I can't get him to change I'm going to have to drop him and get a new NPC. I'd hate to do that since I've spent the whole game with him and he's either 4th or 5th level now. I'm 20th level and its a bit late in the game to start building up a new NPC, but taking on Enclave guys with a .44 is not an option. Is this a bug? Any suggestions?

Vic will never use a .223 pistol as it uses the same animation as a smg,therefore Sulik can use the .223 because he can use a smg.I recommend giving Vic a rifle that has no burst mode,like the hunting rifle, sniper rifle or gauss rifle,he's deadly with these!
Check his stats and set them to use ranged weapons.

RE: Vic

Vic's best weapon is the solar scorcher! Without any doubt in my mind he is the greatest with that weapon. He does about 20-40 average!

RE: Vic

I've seen him do better with the alien blaster and gauss pistols/rifles. Besides, during night encounters the solar scorcher

First of all, if Vic is your only NPC, then you're gonna have to step back and build him up because he will be useless against Enclavers. Personally, I have Vic in my party, and I have him in the last defense position (right next to me). Now, I haven't had access to high level energy weapons yet, but I have him armed with a H&K CAWS. He does ok, but I rely more on Sulik, Cassidy, and Marcus to take out the baddies with me. Basically, you have to get him a new weapon if you want him to survive. Also, your NPC needs some kick-ass armor if you want him to survive, cause his HP won't do him much good if somebody bursts him at close range.
Bottom line, the 44 has to go. You might as well set him on abject coward than leave him on a 44 because against guys in upper level armor, Vic will be nothing more than an annoyance.
