Mentats (Fallout 2)

Mentats are a chem in Fallout 2.

Characteristics
A useful tool for any character build with lower Intelligence, Charisma, and Perception. Mentats can be used by "stupid" characters to converse (if Intelligence is less than 4, the player character is mentally handicapped and cannot speak like a normal person). A trick involves using Mentats to lower the character's intelligence and skills, so that skill books still work at higher levels.
