The penetrator perk has been completely broken this whole time. Literally just cuts VATS damage in half. How do we fix it?


Recommended Posts

Alright, any tips on how to start finding a fix for this would be fantastic. I have no idea where to start, because there is only one thing this perk edits:

 

 

"Mod VATS Penetration Min Visibility"

 

The first rank sets this number to 0.50

 

The second rank sets it to 1.00

 

I can't find anything on this value in the creation kit.

 

 

Perk description: "There's no place to hide! In V.A.T.S. you can target an enemy's body parts that are blocked by cover, with a decrease in accuracy."

 

 

Perk does what it says, but it also cuts your damage in VATS in half. I can't figure out why. It doesn't happen all the time, but most of the time it does, especially when aiming at the torso. Feel free to test it yourself, can't believe this perk has been broken this entire time.

 

Any advice on things to try to fix this, or mods that already fix it is what I'm looking for. Thanks for reading.

Check if in VATS mode, increase damage output by 50%, with another condition that checks if they have the penetrator perk. Several ways to implement this, but using a perk would probably be easiest. The idea is that when this bug comes into affect, that damage boost is removed and you deal normal damage.
