Talk:Ain't Like That Now

I just took this perk and it may effect your running speed not attack speed. Logically speaking I should have seen my DPS go up. It did not, but I appeared to be running faster. --LordVukodlak 07:09, September 21, 2011 (UTC) I did some further testing myself and found the running speed was indeed just my imagination but still It didn't appear to increase my attack speed. Didn't test the AP reduction though.--LordVukodlak 21:29, September 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * I just looked at the perk in the GECK. No movement speed increase, only attack speed. Also, in my opinion this is the best lvl50 perk, specially if you use VATS.--BSMaker 20:20, September 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Were you using an automatic? Doesn't seem like this perk reduces AP costs like Fast Shot does btw, maybe the AP regeneration was to be a different VATS benefit from it in that way. Furoar 15:42, October 19, 2011 (UTC)

do u have to maintain karma at bad or evil to get the perk to work or is only a requierment to get it ? --74.178.207.21 21:24, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

The implication of the perk is you used to be a villian but not anymore. So no remaining evil shouldn't be a requirement.(especially as it resets our karma to 0).--LordVukodlak 21:29, September 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Like the other two level 50 perks, it is "set" when you take it. You can alter your karma either way afterwards. --FourWayDiablo(talk) 15:53, September 23, 2011 (UTC)

Stacks with Fast Shot, I assume?
Does this multiply or accumulate with Fast Shot? I mean, does it increase ROF by 40% total with both, or by 44%? Not that it's much of a difference, but the combination of the two is scary either way. Also, does this perk suffer from the same glitchy behavior as Fast Shot? (Those who have used Fast Shot probably know what I mean - madly clicking in real-time sometimes results in the weapon being hesitant to fire at all.) I can't wait to see how the two perform together... and how many shots I can squeeze off in one VATS round, lol. A 40% ROF boost (or 44%?) seems kind of overpowered... and the bonus to AP regeneration just makes it even sillier! 12.204.48.248 01:42, September 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Try stacking it with Rushing Water. Pretty much every semi-auto weapon gets screwed animations that way.--201.80.161.158 23:14, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

Stacking with slayer
How does the attack speed stack with the slayer perk?

Does this affect automatic weapons
Based on some testing, it appears Fast Shot and Trigger Discipline do not affect rate of fire or spread on automatic weapons, I was curious if anyone had tested this as well? I ran a timed test in the SINK, one with Trigger Discipline and one with Fast Shot, and in both cases an Assault Carbine (GRA) emptied X number of clips in the EXACT same amount of time. The DPS of the weapon under both perks also remained the same. I would be very curious to see if anyone around lvl 50 could run a similar timed test to conclude if this functions in the same way. I'm also curious if automatic Melee and Unarmed weapons like the Chainsaw and Industrial Hand would benefit from this at all.

AP Cost reduction, really?
Can somebody confirm the reduction of AP Cost with this perk?

I just tried this with the Fast Shot Perk and the YCS/186. It didn't seem to make a difference if I had the perk or not. After two shots (AG10, Action Boy II) I always ended up with 23AP left.

So my assumption is that there may be an increased attack speed, but no reduction of AP Cost. I didn't check G.E.C.K, though.

 * It appears that an increase of rate of fire is not necessarily a decrease in AP costs, as may have been misleading from the Fast Shot trait if there are people on the web jumping to conclusions. "25% faster AP regeneration" makes sense as something in its place, though maybe we're getting glitched - does rushing water offer an AP benefit? Furoar 17:40, October 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * There is an AP cost reduction of 20% listed in the GECK, but it seems to be using the wrong entry point. Math Wrath and Fast Shot both use "Modify AP Cost", but Ain't Like That Now uses "Calculate Weapon Attack AP Cost". If you change it to "modify AP Cost", it works as intended, although it seems rather overpowered to have both a decreased AP cost and an increased AP regen. Dwaz 11:50, October 30, 2011 (UTC)
