Ripper (GRA)

The Ripper (GRA) is a melee weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Gun Runners' Arsenal.

Characteristics
This weapon is good for a low- to mid-level melee player. The attack button can be held continuously and it will dismember anything in front of the player (much like a chainsaw or thermic lance), making short work of handling multiple enemies or large, slow creatures.

Similar to the default Ripper, the Ripper (GRA) has a special V.A.T.S. attack called "Long Cut" (Melee Weapons skill of 50 required). Long Cut uses 45 action points instead of 65, at the cost of doing half normal damage. It is also considered an improved holdout weapon, so long as your sneak skill is 50 or greater.

Like most GRA weapons, it has the same stats and textures as the standard model, but can accept weapon modifications.
