Talk:Fight the Power!

DT
I didn't notice an immediate DT boost after taking this. How does it apply the DT boost? Nitty Tok. 04:53, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

The proper enemies will do 2 less damage against you. There is no way to write that cleanly on the UI so it isn't written at all.71.104.103.208 05:27, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

Fight the Power Song reference

 * Why do people keep deleting my edit by saying it is a reference to the song, "Fight the Power" by Public Enemy? The Wanderer That is Alone 15:49, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

I don't discount your theory. It's totally plausible I mean just look at that vault boy! He looks like such a Lil' Hoodlum (probably sportin' gang colors too). That alone should be proof enough right, RIGHT? Lets be honest here "that" word is just a general phrase and no ones got a coin on it. Yeah it could be a reference to something, or nothing. But until that vault boy starts donning some shades and an oversized clock we'll get to talkin'. Now back to real reason why I'm here... "ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWAH!" (eh if not me then who?) -sum guy 16:39, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

The fact sum guy is a dumbass bushapdo (and possible racist) aside, the song fight the power may be the reference, however it would be the Isley Brothers version not the Public Enemy version due to the game's love of old stuff that borderlines on esoteric.

Glitched?
Is this perk glitched in the Hit the Deck way? I mean if that is true, you'd get the bonuses against all kind of enemy as long as the YOU (the courier) is wearing an NCR, Legion or BOS faction armor. This would prove to be effective if you do the BOS quests early on, take the perk and then go around the rest of the game using a BOS armor

Vault Boy picture
The Vault Boy picture is an anarchist in black bloc throwing a molotov. There is at least another reference to anarchism (where this perk is most useful) when you go down the independant Vegas path, the last quest is No Gods, No Masters (which is a widely used anarchist catch phrase) and the quest picture is a big circle A on the Hoover Dam.

Marked Men
I was wondering if this perk works on marked men because they were NCR and Legion.
 * No; technical answer(s): 1) Since Fight the Power! is from the Honest Hearts and Marked Men are in Lonesome Road, it would not work. Downloadable content files tend to conflict with each other. 2) Marked men are marked as creatures that don't have a normal faction (NCR, Legion, etc.). Lore answer: The marked men used to be NCR and Legion, but since then they have banded together and formed their own faction apart from the NCR and Legion. --Kastera (talk) 01:01, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
