Combat:
Designed to be faster and offer a more traditional FPS experience. Everything does more damage, even the player. Fewer bullet sponges. Higher possible enemy level in many zones. Incoming damage scales more sharply at the higher difficulties. Increased XP from kills.
WARNING Deathclaws have a high chance of ruining your day.
WARNING AGAIN Explosives do a lot of damage.
Quality of Life:
If you’re like me you’ve done the whole ‘scavenger hunt/ yard sale’ thing a few too many times. Many material requirements have been removed or reduced for gear mods and settlement items.
I am tired of picking locks and hacking terminals, both are now extremely simple but give no XP and still require corresponding perks. Cooking gives no XP, either–This is not Master Chef.
Run faster, sprint longer, drag bigger dead bodies.
Power armor worn by player no longer takes durability damage or fusion core drain. Power armor jetpacks have a reduced drain. Go explore the Commonwealth downtown! Pretend you’re Batfella and drop off skyscrapers onto evildoers.
Rad-X/Away, mines, and grenades are all weightless.
Because I Said So:
Radiation damage is tripled and max rad resist reduced.
Health is more dependent on Endurance and less on level. Total health reduced at higher levels but slightly higher early game.
Several helmets can be worn along with a gasmask.
Many clothing/ outfits / hats/ helmets can now be modified with miscellaneous liners and also Ballistic Weave. Wear what you want for once.
Quest requirement for Ballistic Weave has been removed and its bonuses reduced because I don’t like the Railroad.
Eyeglasses (just the plain “Eyeglasses”) and Wraparound Goggles now give the Targeting HUD effect instead of +1 Perception.
Some perks swapped positions. Now it doesn’t take more strength to use a sewing machine than to punch a super mutant to death.
I also made a companion mod for some items in the Automatron x-pac, it is on Beth.net as well.
I don’t really know much about mods, and even less about what might conflict or load orders or why your computer hates you. Have you tried paying it a compliment when it performs well? If you want to support this mod, feel free to hug your tower or monitor (your choice) and coo softly while petting it. Back Up Your Saves before trying this or any other mod.
I use the ‘Moribund World’ visual mod by AdrainMoro, that is why my screen shots look so cool. I got it on Beth.net, you can too!
