Stimpak darts?

[3rdtryguy]

Sometimes you can ask your companion if he's okay or wants a stimpak, but sometimes you just want to heal people who aren't following you.

I often find myself in this very situation. However, it's not because I'm some sort of bleeding heart angel of mercy. Oh no... don't get that wrong idea. I learned in Oblivion that a healing spell here and there can have wonderfully significant effects on the battles of others nearby.

 

Have you ever let loose the Behemoth in Evergreen Mills, only to watch him taken down in no time flat by the raiders? Wouldn't it be more fun to keep him healed up until he wipes them all out instead?

 

That's just an example, of course. Plenty more pop up every day.

 

Anyway, I find it strange that there is no skillset for BEING a wasteland doctor in the game, no matter what your medicine skill. I thought it might be cool if we could somehow modify a dartgun to fire super-potent healing stimdarts at wounded people or creatures who we couldn't ordinarily offer to heal.

 

I'm guessing this is easily doable, but only via scripting. The GECK doesn't seem to be able to make it work as far as I've been able to tell.

Any Ideas? Would this be a popular mod if it worked? Heck, anyone with Animal Freindship as a perk could use it every day.

T_R_A_S_C_H. allows you to heal others amongst other things like change faction change aggression etc. It will do this for any NPC you can talk to. I’ve used it for ages

Sharing and Caring also allows for healing, even non-companions.

this has a stim gun and i coulda swore i saw a standalone mod w/ a gun like that. unfortunately it sounds like the gun will cause non comapnions to aggro

kinda reminds me of Fallout 2, anyone still rememberthe good old days, when your comp. was down surrounded by enemies and you try to use a super stimpack and end up injecting 3 enemies before you get 1 shot into your follower ?

 

and well, I would prolly go hostile to if you shoot me with stimpacks, its basically a dartgun just sharper :D

This reminded me of this image about how chemists heal their allies in Final Fantasy Tactics

Anyway, I think there are several mods that include stimpack guns, though I think they do aggavate the target. I know there are also mods that add poison and drugs which you can attack enemies with.

 

The Dart Gun hits people and cripples their legs, I get the feeling that if they get shot with anything that injects stuff into their bloodstream that it would tick them off.

 

Actually, if there is the option to set up a shop (like the scavangers and wasteland merchants) then you could sit still and have people walking past approach you to heal them. Le them come to you for healing instead of asking them. An evil option could include you giving them poison to knock them out or kill them and then just take their stuff.
