The shovel is a weapon in the Fallout 3 add-on Point Lookout.

Characteristics[]

Shovels used to be a common appliance but have since been used to intimidate outsiders and force them out of the swamps of Point Lookout. It is commonly used by the swampfolk and Point Lookout tribals. While not highly damaging, the shovel sports a very high critical hit multiplier allowing it to pull off a critical hit three times as often.

Variants[]

  • Fertilizer shovel, a shovel that deals poison damage over time to any target it hits.

Notes[]
