The flamer that burns twice as bright burns half as long. All weapons have +3% chance to Critical Hit, but equipment condition decays 15% faster.

Built to Destroy is a trait in Fallout: New Vegas.

Effects[]

All weapons have an increased chance to cause a Critical Hit, but at the cost of higher maintenance. Degradation is applied with each shot or hit, and will therefore affect rapid-fire weapons more noticeably.

Notes[]

  • The weapon depicted in the infobox appears to be the light machine gun.
  • This trait's negative effects are easily mitigated by Weapon Repair Kits or the Jury Rigging perk.

Behind the scenes[]

  • The trait description is a reference to a well-known proverb: "The candle that burns twice as bright burns half as long."
