A very strong perk. I built an entire build of a drug addict killer with an automatic weapon based on it. With med x, buffout, psycho, energy drink, quantum nuclear cola and turbo, my courier tore apart everything living and non-living. I achieved a turbo duration of 6 seconds. Considering the turbo injector from the big mountain, I could slow down time every battle. I invented the Sandevestian build long before it existed! You could dodge robot missiles while shooting along the way, or cut your opponent with a katana at monstrous speed.

The stat choices I recommend are because of implants, the dead money clothing return exploit, and the implant/naughty nightwear combination which brings you to 9 luck which is more than enough to get kicked out of all casinos while still providing enough stat points to go around.

Even if it wasn't bugged, most people wouldn't take it, unlike it's brother perk, Stonewall that is very valuable giving you +5 DT (regardless of what you're wearing) vs the most common type of dmg aka melee and unarmed weapons (including animals, monsters, mutants and robots melee attacks), also giving you a nice bonus of having knockdown immunity (good vs both melee and explosives) This perk just doesn't give you enough value to justify itself in most situations, energy weapons are very uncommon unless you plan on fighting the brotherhood, the van graphs and/or big mountain robots on a daily basis, with no bonus secondary effect like stonewall has

Considering the turbo injector from the big mountain, I could slow down time every battle. I invented the Sandevestian build long before it existed!

Start game with 10 intelligence and 7 agility. Do tutorial stuff to level up and get the agility perk which negates crit damage while wearing light armour. Leave starting area and respec to whatever you want...I recommend 8 endurance 1 agility and 7 luck. It'll let you choose your level up perk again... And you'll keep the previously chosen perk. The stat choices I recommend are because of implants, the dead money clothing return exploit, and the implant/naughty nightwear combination which brings you to 9 luck which is more than enough to get kicked out of all casinos while still providing enough stat points to go around.

Oh, forgot there was other people that worked on these ! But with bethesda reputation it still would work on other stuff I'm sure

It's a Bethesda moment, had by Obsidian, because of time constraints.
How many times have you watched this? Me: Yes
Bethesda MOMENT
Lmao. It's a classic "It 👏 just 👏 works 👏" moment from Godd Howard.
dogs on the perk: ✅ gives the perks name:❌
It should actually make the beams ricochet and hit other enemies
A bug in a Fallout game? No way!
I never even thought about taking this perk anyway 💀💀
This is why you always make values like that enums and not strings
I never came across enough energy weapons used against me in New Vegas to ever decide to pick this perk
I’ve never been in a situation where I ever needed this perk and honestly if I was, the problem was not lacking the perk to begin with anyways.
Yeeeeeeah if the ever remaster this should definitely dive into the many priblems
Don't need the DT if you kill them all first.
I love when a bug makes a whole stat do nothing like in ffvii
Its things like this that add to the charm of FO:NV and really remind you that it was made on a broken engine in 18 months by a team that was learning said engine as the game was being developed. And I, for one, love it for that.
It. Just. Works.
Perk: You are shiny
Certified Bethesda
D'oh at triple A devs doing string comparisons for categorical checks could easily have been avoided if they just used an enumeration
Programmers: no magic strings!!
Even if it wasn't bugged, most people wouldn't take it, unlike it's brother perk, Stonewall that is very valuable giving you +5 DT (regardless of what you're wearing) vs the most common type of dmg aka melee and unarmed weapons (including animals, monsters, mutants and robots melee attacks), also giving you a nice bonus of having knockdown immunity (good vs both melee and explosives) This perk just doesn't give you enough value to justify itself in most situations, energy weapons are very uncommon unless you plan on fighting the brotherhood, the van graphs and/or big mountain robots on a daily basis, with no bonus secondary effect like stonewall has
Quick lil mod fixes it and it is quite good, but the amount of NPCs that use energy weapons isn't high.
In todays lesson in the importance of Enums
And that's why we use enums and constants instead of just matching strings.
That literally sounds like something I could fix in xEdit in about 5 minutes
gotta love obsidian entertainment
And that’s why you use ENUMS
Bro I thought I was crazy I always felt like it didn’t do anything so I stopped taking it
Ive always run light armor perks anyway, just for the movement speed and critical hit bonuses.
Lol I remember learning this after taking it three playthroughs in a row
My life will never be the same
Ive always avoided this perk due to that i either wear the riot armor or the stealth suit from Big MT.
that metal armor would make a cool fallout 4 mod
If this glitch happened in Fallout 4, you would see a lot of people using this as another reason to trash on it
This is why you define types or enums instead of using string comparison for logic.
The worst part is that *especially* for OWBs, this perk wouldn’t be anything to scoff at if it worked. 5DT could mean the difference between getting one shot and living another day.
The armor in the second pic looks like the wraiths alien esk driver suit
