Request: Cripple = Dismemberment

[Campaigner]

With the Bloody Mess perk, things go all to hell when you kill a man. However, if you cripple a guy, he just gets a limp or hangs his arm down.

 

My suggestion is this: When you have the Bloody Mess perk, and you score a crippling hit on the arms or legs, the arm/leg explodes rather than just becomes useless. With the torso, it's be normal, and with the head, obviously, it'd be a bit wacky if they become headless and still move around.

 

 

For an advanced request;

 

Requires Bloody Mess perk

Cripple Arms - Explodes the arm normally and removes any equipped weapon. Drops mutilated arm onto the ground (misc item)

Cripple Legs - Explodes the leg, puts the enemy into a fatigued state as if you beat them into submission with the boxing gloves. Drops Mutilated leg onto the ground (misc item)

Cripple Torso - No change.

Cripple Head (normal) - No change. Goes for NPCs, Geckos, Mole Rats, and all critters not listed separately.

Cripple Head (alternate) - Head explodes, they recoil, but are killed 5 seconds later by a script. Affects all the above creatures and NPCs.

Cripple Wings (Cazadores) - Destroys the wing as if you dismembered it.

Cripple Antennae (Ants, Roach, Mantis) - Blows up the head, kills after 5 seconds.

Cripple Head (Lakelurk) - Normal, but creates an EMP blast as if you planted a pulse grenade on its head. Visual only, no extra damage.

Cripple Head (Robobrain, Protectron) - Explodes the head, they fight you like normal, but die 5 seconds later.

 

Nothing for Sentrybot, Sentry Turret, Bloatfly, Deathclaw
