What stats in Fallout Shelter affect weapons?
In Fallout Shelter, the main stat that affects weapon performance is the dweller's Perception. Higher Perception means more accurate and thus more effective use of ranged weapons. However, don't forget about Strength, as it can boost damage during melee combat. So, focusing on Perception for your gun-toting dwellers and Strength for those who prefer the up-close-and-personal approach will give you the best bang for your buck!

Just equip the biggest gun you find; stats aren't that crucial for weapons. ?♂️
From my experience, Perception is key for ranged weapons. Had a dweller with a high Perception stat and they literally never missed a shot. Strength is a game-changer for melee. Made my vault almost invincible during raids and explorations.
