Talk:Sub-Dermal Armor

adds weight?
the article says it adds weight to your inventory.

is it less than 1 unit of weight or something?

im sitting here at the doctor with one of my saves and my weight amount doesnt change with or without the implant.

im going to say the article is just wrong.

i mean seriously, ive been taking armor on and off, throwing items on the ground, and whatever else and my weight is sitting at 54 with and without the implant.

if it adds weight it is less than 1 unit, and thats hardly worth mentioning.

You should check how much lead you have. Lead has weight but very miniscule. If enough lead is accumulated then that would be the reason for the extra weight.

Deathclaws
The article says this helps against Deathclaws, but as far as I know, they ignore all armor. --Chris616263 00:15, December 21, 2010 (UTC)

Is this perk bugged?
The actual benefit of this perk should be verified, because I seem to have discovered a bug on PC: while the Pip-boy Damage Threshold section displays a value of "4" (when no armor or clothing equipped), the console command "player.getav DamageThreshold" shows a value of "0". And I didn't notice any marked improvement out of this perk during combat so far. That's why I'm wondering whether this perk is bugged. C0Rb3N 21:03, February 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * I have also noticed a problem with this perk on PC. When I remove all my armor, my damage threshold is only showing up as 2 in Pip-boy. But with the sub-dermal implant, surely it should be at least 4? When I tried the console command you mentioned and got the same value of 0 despite having the implant.


 * I forgot, I must have chosen the kamikaze trait at the beginning of the game, which makes your DT -2. However, even though pip-boy shows DT as -2 when you start the game with that trait, the console command to get your DamageThreshold still shows 0, so there must be a way of modifying DT without affecting the DamageThreshold stat. That might explain why sub-dermal armor doesn't affect that stat, maybe it is added separately, as with the Kamikaze trait?

Reference to motorcycle/off-roading gloves?
Anyone else think that that reference doesn't really belong in the Behind the Scenes section? The Captain (radio) 06:54, March 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't particularly think so either, but whatever. Great Mara 07:12, March 14, 2011 (UTC)
