📋 About This Mod
Alright first off, apparently bethesda blocks the word Ƒlamer, so for now on in an effort to stop copy/pasting that stupid F, I'm going to be referring to the weapon as Todd. I know this is the Nexus, and not bethesda.net, but I upload there first to pack my ba2 files and the description made me giggle, so deal with it. Deal with the giggles.
The first gun I've created, Todd is a smaller, more compact version of the.. Bigger Todd? Bigger Todd.
Unlike the Bigger Todd, Todd has a fire rate of 54 as opposed to the Bigger Todd's 90. It has a base damage output of 19, allowing it to keep up with mose end game weapons, like the handmade rifle from Nuka World.
Todd can be found on raiders, but they only use the basic elemental clip, fire. Todd also gets an ice mode, and a poison gas mode, which can be accessed through crafting them at the weapon's workbench.
Todd is added to the legendary loot lists, so you can find him being used by legendary enemies, which is pretty nifty.
Xhlij24kAYkEventually I'll end up making an all in one mod complete with unique versions of guns, as well as unique locations, and all my other guns, but this requires me to have other guns, so keep an eye out for it when I have a decent number of BALLISTIC IMPLEMENTS.
Please report any issues you have to me in the comments or bugs section right away, I'll fix it I swear
Also, user submitted screenshots are always welcome! I love getting this, and I'll pop your name in the bottom right and put them in the official mod screenshots if they're really pretty.
Please don't ask where to find shit. Just kill enemies to find the weapon.
Also, if you like making worldspaces in creation kit, send me a message. I can use them for small quests in MCAM.
- I can't find ___ anywhere and I've killed 8000 gunners
- Either look harder, or stop twiddling around your mod order with 3 new weapons every day. I advise installing this at the same time as you install a whole bunch of mods, and just running the game once.
- Is this mod compatible with my favorite barbie playhouse immersive roleplay mod by Arthmoor?
- This texture is too clean, I require dirty.
- Y'all have probably got a pretty intense sex life because this gun is real fuckin dirty
- I love you so much that I want to support you in every way I can, but I also am poor.
- Check out my other mods, or my twitter/youtube pages, it's much appreciated! :)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,770 endorsements and over 46k downloads.
- Fills a niche for a mobile flamethrower, letting you burn and run.
- The author's personality shines through—'Also fuck bloatflies. Burn them.'—which is a plus for fans of cheeky mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017—might have compatibility issues with current game versions or DLC.
- The description is minimal, so you're going in blind on stats, crafting, and balance.
For Fallout 4 players who want a lighter, more agile flamethrower for clearing out raiders and ghouls. If you're a run-and-gun type who hates the slow heavy weapons, this is for you. Skip if you need a fully documented, actively maintained mod with detailed stats.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a weapon mod, you'll likely need to craft it at a weapons workbench—check the mod's files for the exact recipe.
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mods' Vortex, install it through there to avoid manual file placement issues.
- Given the 2017 update, test it early in your playthrough to ensure it works with your current load order.
