The Appalachian Wastelands of Fallout 76 are crawling with Fallout 76 Items monsters and other hazards, and you'll need a weapon to protect you from it all. Thankfully, there's no lack of those waiting to be found in the ruins of Appalachia.

The game comes with a wide array of weapons, and as always, modders are looking out for their fellow gamers, offering ways to improve and customize the weapon selection. Textures, sounds, visual effects, they have it all covered. What do you need to build your best weapon?

Dot and Ring Sight Recolor Options by Commanderbass.

You can change it at will, making it bright during the day and dark at night, or change the color depending on your surroundings. Find a combination that works for you!

Weapon, Armor, and Power Armor Glow Mods by Runew0lf.

Glowing mods are unsurprisingly popular in Fallout 76 - again, there's a need to make things stand out against the dull background. If you find yourself wandering the Wasteland, unable to find the in-game modification items for weapons or armor, then try Weapon, Armor, and Power Armor Glow Mods by Runew0lf.

This will add a soft yellow glow to the items, ensuring that they stand out on the shelves or the floor, or wherever they're hiding. Don't strain your eyes looking for things or miss an important item ever again!

Fallout Fidelity Pack - Weapons by Texasfunk101.

Want to upgrade your weapon texture quality? Check out Fallout Fidelity Pack - Weapons by Texasfunk101. This mod has a re-upload of every weapon texture, upscaled to two times their normal resolution.

The resulting weapon is noticeably higher quality than what you'll get in the vanilla game. It doesn't affect the performance of the weapons, but it's one of those little things that just make you feel better as you play the game.

Everyone likes higher quality, and this mod offers the best.

Punchier Heavy Weapons by bunslinger.

Gun sound effects in video games tend to be lacking, but modder bunslinger made an interesting observation while playing Fallout 76's Mothman Equinox - some bigger guns, when fired by other players or NPCs, had a heavier, louder sound.

They took those sound effects and combined them with the regular big gun sound effects, and the results were Punchier Heavy Weapons.

Prepare yourself for a more immersive experience every time you pull out Fallout 76 Bottle Caps a gatling gun, 50cal, minigun, or gatling laser. It doesn't cover all guns, because a lot of sounds are re-used, but you'll appreciate that punchy sound when you have it.
